Chapter 72: Chapter 72 - The Scripture of the Seven Souls

After coming out of his thoughts and calming his excitement, Song Yang refocused on the reputation points, which were slowly climbing, getting closer to reaching the 1 million mark again.

As he watched the number grow, he couldn't help but feel a bit of anxiety.

Naturally, because once he hit 1 million reputation points, he would open another legendary mystery box.

"What do I need?"

While waiting, Song Yang lost himself in thought, pondering what he truly needed and hoping it would appear in the next mystery box. However, at that moment, he was truly at a loss.

Not because he needed many things, but because he simply didn't know what he really needed.

Due to the vast number of corpses obtained by the Shura Palace, his death space was completely full, and almost any type of pill would be useless to him at this point.

After all, what Song Yang truly needed was time to refine all this energy and advance in his cultivation.

But he couldn't just gain time from the mystery box, could he?

When he thought about it as a joke, Song Yang couldn't help but imagine that for the system, it really wasn't impossible, but he quickly dismissed the idea.

After all, while it wasn't impossible, it would be unlikely for the reward to be time, especially from a legendary mystery box, which was only the fourth type of mystery box.

As for other things, he had already reached the fifth layer of Sword Intent and mastered the Celestial Sword Technique to perfection, as well as comprehended five sacred laws to 100%. So, at this moment, Song Yang was unsure of what to expect.

'Perhaps an imperial-level body refinement technique? Or maybe a subordinate with Grand Saint cultivation?'

Thinking about having a subordinate in the Grand Saint realm, Song Yang couldn't help but feel a growing excitement.

He imagined that if he actually obtained a subordinate with Grand Saint-level cultivation or higher, it could accelerate his plans and allow the Shura Palace to expand to other regions of the Celestial Cloud Continent.

[Points: 1,000,002]

As he was thinking, the system's mechanical voice sounded again:

[Do you wish to learn the Fragment of the Seven Souls Scripture?]

"Yes."

As soon as he replied, Song Yang sat down cross-legged.

Immediately, countless pieces of information began to appear in his mind. Unlike all other techniques, this one was more complex, but with the system's help, Song Yang quickly grasped it.

"If my talent hadn't improved after consuming so many corpses, I fear that even with the system's help, I wouldn't have been able to understand this technique."

When he finally finished absorbing the information, Song Yang couldn't help but exclaim, somewhat surprised.

This is the first technique whose complexity is comparable to that of his Supreme Devouring Sutra.

However, unlike the Supreme Devouring Sutra, which he was able to understand more quickly due to his Corpse Devourer Body, this Scripture had to be comprehended based on his own talent.

"Besides strengthening the soul, the Scripture also has several soul-related attack methods. It's a pity that this fragment only has one type of attack," Song Yang said, a bit disappointed as he finished understanding the technique.

Now that Song Yang had successfully comprehended the Scripture, he did not get up and immediately began to practice.

In the next moment, at the bottom of Song Yang's sea of consciousness, a small white point began to appear and rapidly grow.

This was the soul seed mentioned in the Seven Souls Scripture!

Soon after, six more soul seeds began to emerge in Song Yang's sea of consciousness.

From this moment on, Song Yang practically lost track of time outside.

The seven points, which were the soul seeds in the sea of consciousness, began to grow. As they grew, their appearances became increasingly similar to Song Yang's.
