Chapter 64 The Nine-Mind Control Method and the Promise of "One Dog"
Ye Lingling looked at the immortal herb in her hand.
She comes from the Nine-Heart Begonia family and knows the value of the immortal herb.
Of the seven members of the Royal Fighting Team, only three knew the value of the immortal herb: Lin Hao, Ye Lingling, and Dugu Yan.
She could feel the subtle resonance between her martial soul, the Nine-Hearted Begonia, and the immortal herb in her hand.
Ye Lingling thought for a moment, then said with feeling, "Boss, I won't take your Spirit Heart Jade Dew Grass for nothing. I'll give you something in return!"
As she spoke, Ye Lingling flipped her hand, and with a flash of light, took out a book from the jade bracelet's storage soul tool.
The pages are yellowed, indicating that the book is quite old. The cover has the words "Nine Hearts Control Method" written in large characters.
Lin Hao looked at the words on it, a thought flashing through his mind, and said, "You're going to give it to me?"
Qin Ming also reminded her, "Lingling, whether or not to teach Lin Hao the Nine Hearts Control Technique requires your father's consent!"
Ye Lingling's attitude was firm. She said, "I am the young patriarch of the Nine Heart Begonia Clan. I have the right to decide who to pass on the Nine Heart Control Technique to. Elder Lin, I can only pass on the Nine Star Control Technique to you, and you must promise me that you will not pass it on to others without my permission."
"Okay, I promise you. Without your permission, I will never pass it on to anyone else, including my future wife and descendants!" Lin Hao said each word as if making a vow.
Ye Lingling reached out and handed the ancient book to Lin Hao.
The Nine Hearts Control Method is a cultivation technique for controlling distractions, continuously refined by generations of Soul Masters in the Nine Hearts Begonia Clan who possess the Nine Hearts Begonia Martial Soul.
The Nine Hearts Control Method and the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School's Distraction Control Method are similar in principle.
Similar to the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School, the Nine Heart Begonia Clan also relies heavily on combat-type Soul Masters.
Taking this opportunity, Ye Lingling decided to take it upon herself to form a good relationship with Lin Hao.
Ye Lingling gifted Lin Hao the Nine Heart Begonia family's cultivation method, an act that made the others feel somewhat awkward.
Dugu Yan, Yu Tianheng, Shi Mo, Yu Feng, and Aos Luo did not have any of these items to offer, but their value was equivalent to immortal herbs, and they could be used as gifts to report to Lin Hao.
Qin Ming was also one of Lin Hao's investment targets.
After giving away the immortal herb, Lin Hao thought for a moment and then gave away the opportunity that originally belonged to Ma Hongjun—the Cockscomb Phoenix Sunflower—to Qin Ming, who was also a fire-attribute soul master, from his storage soul tool.
Ordinary wolves possess the attribute of ice and cold, while Qin Ming's martial soul is a mutated martial soul—the Blazing Azure Wolf. Its martial soul attribute has been transformed to the extreme of pure yang. The Rooster-Crested Phoenix Sunflower, also possessing the pure yang attribute, is perfectly suited to Qin Ming.
After giving away the treasures, Yu Tianheng was the last to leave. Before he left, he left behind a promise.
"Boss, I have nothing to repay you with right now. But if one day I become the sect leader of the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan, I, Yu Tianheng, hereby promise to take you to a hidden place within our sect. Whether you obtain that opportunity depends on your own destiny!"
Although Lin Hao verbally said that he gave them priceless treasures because he thought they were promising talents.
Ye Lingling presented Lin Hao with the "Nine Hearts Control Method" on the spot.
Yu Tianheng promised to take Lin Hao into a secret realm of the family in the future.
These were all unexpected delights.
After closing the door, Lin Hao began to study the "Nine Hearts Control Method" carefully.
The core principle of the entire control method is to use the "nine natal petals" of the Nine Heart Begonia Martial Soul as energy carriers. Cultivators activate different numbers of "heart apertures" through mental power, splitting the healing soul power into multiple independent "begonia spiritual streams".
The Great Way leads to all paths; understanding one leads to understanding all.
Distraction control is similar to the Nine-Mind Control Method.
To master the key points, you first need to have a strong ability to observe the big picture.
The first step is the three-leaf heart.
It involves designing three things in three different directions, with your attention constantly shifting between these three things.
Furthermore, each time, three different items must be wrapped with Blue Silver Grass.
The three directions of entanglement can be controlled with a maximum interval of one second between contractions and releases. If one can control both simultaneously with ease, then one has reached the state of perfection.
Lin Hao's spiritual realm has reached the seventh level of the Spirit Sea Realm, thus fulfilling the primary condition.
To put it simply, it's designed to help people multitask.
However, it is not just about teaching people to multitask.
As he perused and studied the text more thoroughly, Lin Hao murmured softly.
"Nine Hearts - Return to the Ruins Ceremony!"
According to the secret manual, if one cultivates the Mind Aperture to the level of Nine Hearts Returning to the Void Sacrifice, one must fuse the "Life Origin" of the Nine Hearts Begonia Soul Master with half of one's own soul to condense the "Returning to the Void Heart Seal".
This seal, when applied, can instantly heal "all damage" to up to 9 teammates.
Whether the soul core is shattered, the martial soul is destroyed, or the soul is injured, it can be completely repaired, and after repair, it will give teammates a short-term buff - "Immortal Life".
Lin Hao understood.
It turns out that the general consensus in the Soul Master world is that a Soul Master with the Nine Heart Begonia Martial Soul is so powerful that it's said to be difficult for them to die, and this is not an exaggeration.
The secret lies in exchanging lives for lives.
The last page describes in detail how to use the Guixu Ritual.
"Extracting the essence of a martial soul? The essence of a martial soul can be extracted?"
Lin Hao felt something stirring in his mind, a realization dawning on him. But when he tried to delve deeper, to grasp it, he couldn't capture anything.
Three days later, at the Great Battle Arena.
"Welcome to the thrilling, action-packed Arena of Souls!"
"Next up is the final match of the night!"
"Previously, due to the competition format, the Soto Grand Arena did not match any teams with the Royal Fighting Team. Tonight, we finally matched a team that is suitable for the Royal Fighting Team."
"First of all, let me give a warm round of applause to the Royal Fighting Team, who have achieved a nine-game winning streak at the Soto Grand Arena!"
The applause was deafening.
Many Soul Masters whistled excitedly.
"It's finally here. The Royal Fighting Team hasn't had a single battle for three days, and I've lost for three days in a row. Tonight, I've mortgaged my house and taken out a loan to bet on the Royal Fighting Team to win. Whether I can turn things around and achieve financial freedom depends on tonight!"
"Then you're in trouble."
"What do you mean by that?"
"Do you know who the Royal Fighting Team is going to face tonight?"
"Who is it?"
"The Shrek team."
"Shrek?"
"That's right. Since registering their Fighting Spirit team, Shrek Academy has been undefeated, maintaining a winning streak! Tonight, things are looking grim!"
Amidst the audience's discussions and under the personal guidance of Supervisor Ao, the Shrek Seven Devils, who had been awarded the Silver Battle Soul Badge in advance by Supervisor Ao, stepped onto the Battle Soul Stage under the spotlight.
All seven of them were wearing masks.
They had previously demonstrated their strength to the audience in dozens of battles.
Before the match, nine nobles and wealthy merchants who had requested the Royal Fighting Team to fight in Soto City personally delivered relevant information about the Shrek Seven Devils to Qin Ming.
Among the Shrek Seven Devils was a masked man with deep-set eyes, a tall and imposing figure, and broad shoulders, who stared intently at Lin Hao.
Xiao Wu asked softly, "Xiao San, why are you staring at a man?"
Tang San looked puzzled and replied, "I don't know why, but he gives me a very warm feeling!"
