Chapter 627: Chapter 627
Zhang Xiaohao flicked his finger to lock the office door from the inside.
He pulled out two storage bags from his pocket.
The two storage bags in front of him were rather crudely made, exactly the ones he got from Scarred Face and the hemorrhoid-ridden old man the previous night.
With a flip of his right hand, he summoned the Shennong Pill Fire and directed it at the two storage bags to refine them.
After a few minutes, the two crude storage bags had been successfully refined.
The imprints left by their original owners had been erased by Zhang Xiaohao.
With a thought, he left his own soul marks on the crudely made storage bags.
He turned the openings of the two storage bags downward, towards the ground.
Thump, thump, thump...
A series of crackling sounds rang out and, within moments, the two storage bags had been emptied.
Various things piled up to nearly a meter high.
"Goodness! Why are there women’s clothes? Those guys are really twisted," Zhang Xiaohao cursed under his breath.
Atop the small mountain heap, some women’s intimate garments were strikingly conspicuous, available in all sorts of styles.
Zhang Xiaohao, suppressing his disgust, tossed these women’s intimate garments to the side.
After discarding the useless women’s undergarments, the mountain of items shrunk by nearly three quarters.
What remained were some bottles and jars, a few secret techniques, and various scattered materials. Nᴇw ɴovel chaptᴇrs are published on 𝘯𝘰𝘷𝘦𝘭•𝙛𝙞𝙧𝙚•𝕟𝕖𝕥
Suddenly, Zhang Xiaohao’s eyebrows furrowed, as if he had sensed something.
His right hand quickly sifted through the pile.
In Zhang Xiaohao’s palm lay three spirit stones, all of lower quality—two fire attribute stones and one wood attribute stone.
"There are actually spirit stones! And three of them; these guys were really loaded," Zhang Xiaohao muttered.
With a flip of his palm, he stored the three spirit stones away.
Then, he set aside the few secret techniques by themselves.
He separated the bottles and jars from the various materials, placing each by themselves as well.
A few minutes later, the treasures on the ground were all sorted by Zhang Xiaohao.
Most of the materials were intended for Xuan Masters, and there were also a few hundred-year-old spiritual medicines, which were still quite valuable.
Zhang Xiaohao flicked his sleeve, gathering all these materials and spiritual medicines into the Shennong Ring.
Next, he picked up the bottles and jars, inspecting each one.
The dozens of bottles and jars had all been inspected by Zhang Xiaohao.
most of these contained healing elixirs, some were for advancing cultivation, including two bottles intended for Xuan Masters to enhance soul power, and there were also a few bottles of deadly poison.
Up to this point, these elixirs were arguably the most valuable things in the two storage bags.
With a grasp of his hand, he gathered all these elixirs into the Shennong Ring.
Zhang Xiaohao picked up the secret techniques that lay beside him, examining them.
Of these six secret techniques, five were meant for martial artists; one was an Earth Stage, low-grade Cultivation Technique, four were martial skills, the highest being a mid-grade Earth Tier called the Great Illusion Breaking Fist Technique, while the remaining three were supreme Xuan Rank martial skills.
Casually, he stored these five secret techniques away.
Zhang Xiaohao picked up the remaining secret technique manual and began to read it.
As he touched it, a cool sensation came over him, followed by an ancient and desolate aura that emanated from the sheepskin manual.
The cover bore four large characters: "Soul Secret Techniques"!
Zhang Xiaohao opened the manual and inspected it carefully.
A quarter of an hour passed.
Zhang Xiaohao solemnly closed the manual. This sheepskin volume recorded a total of three soul secret techniques.
"Soul Protection Shield!"
"Soul Thousand Arrow Rain!"
"Soul Solidification!"
If it were just these three soul secret techniques, there would be nothing special, as the Three Pure Daoist Skill that Zhang Xiaohao practiced recorded many ancient and powerful soul secret techniques.
However, unlike these three techniques,
the soul secret techniques from the Three Pure Daoist Skill, though powerful, could not be used continuously, as they would overtax the soul.
Using a single soul secret technique, given Zhang Xiaohao’s current soul power at the Earth Stage Early Stage, he could, at most, use it three times in one day.
To attempt it again, the consumption of soul power would increase exponentially.
Unless Zhang Xiaohao’s soul power broke through the limits of the Earth Stage and reached the realm of a Heavenly Rank Xuan Master.
Only then could he break the consumption limitation and qualify to cultivate even more powerful soul secret techniques.
But these three soul secret techniques were different: the amount of soul power consumed the first time you used one was fixed, and no matter how many times you used it subsequently, as long as your soul power could handle it, the consumption would remain the same.
these three soul secret techniques worked on the same principle as the Heavenly Cutting Sword Technique.
The stronger the cultivator’s soul power, the more powerful the burst of power when used!
As the cultivator continues to break through levels, in the end, even if Zhang Xiaohao were just to use a Soul Shield and stand still, letting ten thousand people attack him, they would not be able to kill him!
And last night, during combat,
with Zhang Xiaohao’s cultivation level, aided by the Fish Intestine Sword having been unsealed, along with various other methods, he couldn’t break through the Soul Protection Shield of the old hemorrhoid sufferer, showing just how powerful this secret technique was.
As for Soul Thousand Arrow Rain, it’s a mass attack skill. It’s powerful and very practical, suited for times of group combat.
If Zhang Xiaohao mastered this Soul Thousand Arrow Rain, even if there were ten thousand enemies in front of him, as long as they weren’t of the same rank, a single release of it would guarantee their annihilation—truly a must-have Divine Artifact for home raiding and showing off!
This third soul skill "Soul Solidification" is the most powerful one among these three soul secret techniques.
The last strike used by the old hemorrhoid sufferer, covering his arm with soul power and forming a giant sword, demonstrated just that.
If this Soul Solidification is well utilized, the power it unleashes could be unimaginable.
For example, during a duel, suddenly, two iron chains might emerge from beneath the feet, trapping the opponent’s feet. Even if it lasts for just a breath’s time, for someone as strong as Zhang Xiaohao, that would be enough to determine the winner.
Just like the last scene from last night’s fight.
Whether it was Scarred Face or the old hemorrhoid sufferer, both were taken by surprise by Zhang Xiaohao’s Lion Roar.
Zhang Xiaohao was able to kill both of them with the aid of Divine Artifacts and the Xingtian Battle Axe.
the outcome of last night’s fight might still be uncertain!
This goes to show just how powerful this Soul Solidification technique is.
"Whew!" Zhang Xiaohao let out a long sigh.
"I’ve really struck gold this time! Just with these three powerful soul secret techniques, if I were to auction them off, not to mention a fortune, even an immense fortune would have countless strong competitors smashing their heads over it!" Zhang Xiaohao said with sparkling eyes.
