39: Chi Yu's skill selection
"Racial Secret Techniques cannot be obtained by anything other than a powerful race!"
"Legend has it that Racial Secret Techniques are related to the first generation."
"Some races are born with certain special techniques that do not require Acquired learning; these are called Racial Skills."
"..."
After searching for a long time, the information regarding Racial Secret Techniques was only fragmented.
Among these reports, none clearly pointed out how to Cultivate a Racial Secret Technique or how they were generated.
Having no other choice, Chen Fei could only temporarily set it aside.
He then borrowed books related to the three classes: Soul, Dream, and Illusion.
This was in order to coordinate with Chi Yu's existing skills and perfect its combined tactics.
Targeting Soul Stripping, Chen Fei found the [Soul Prison Seal] skill.
After shaking the Soul out of the physical body, one could quickly use Soul Prison Seal to lock the opponent's Soul within a dark Alien Space prison.
The higher the proficiency, the longer the imprisonment time.
There was also another skill, [Soul Cutting].
By making a cut on the Soul that had been shaken out, even if the original owner did not die, their Origin Qi would be heavily damaged.
As proficiency increased, more cuts could be released simultaneously.
In addition to those, he also wanted to learn the [Soul Protection] skill.
To prevent Chen Fei or Little Gu from suffering Soul attacks, activating this skill in time could reduce the damage received.
Also, the [Soul Interrogation] demonstrated by the Variegated Soul Beast at that time made Chen Fei quite tempted.
As for Dream skills, he would first learn the simple [Dream Interference] and [Dream Barrier], focusing on protection.
For Illusion Class skills, [Mirror Flower Water Moon] was a must-learn; this skill could create an illusionary Realm that felt completely Truth-like.
Like a flower in a mirror or the moon in the water, it was beautiful yet ethereal, making it impossible to distinguish between real and fake.
The higher the proficiency, the more Truth-like the environment became and the harder it was to see through.
Since it could create illusionary Realms, it was natural to also learn the [Illusion-Breaking Reincarnation] skill to dispel them.
Some illusionary Realms are not composed of a single layer, but potentially two, three, or even five or six layers.
At such times, this skill is needed to analyze the original construction points of the illusion to see through it.
As for the Assassin Class, Chi Yu was unable to use abilities like poison, Parasitism, or Corpse Control like Little Gu.
So it had to learn skills like Lurking, Camouflage, and Concealment within the Assassin Class to facilitate smoother sneak attacks.
Just thinking about these dozen or so skills gave Chen Fei a headache.
The slaughter value that would be consumed in the future would be no small amount!
The only thing that comforted Chen Fei was Chi Yu's talent. After several skills, Chi Yu only used two bodhi fruits, while the others were all mastered through its own comprehension.
In this regard, Chi Yu was stronger than Little Gu; after all, it did have S-grade Aptitude.
However, in terms of increasing its Realm, Chi Yu was far inferior to Little Gu.
Little Gu could continuously improve itself through Parasitism and Devour, while Chi Yu's talent seemed to have all gone into these three classes, making its improvement slow.
As expected, nothing in this world is perfect.
Fortunately, Chen Fei still had the slaughter sacred codex to make up for Chi Yu's shortcomings.
Otherwise, never mind the Realm, those dozen skills alone would be enough to deal with... Tianqing City, Black Market!
"Old Jia, I've finally found you!"
Mai Feng leaned in closer and asked in a low voice, "Are today's spirit gathering pills in stock?"
Old Jia revealed a mouthful of big black teeth: "Yes, of course!"
Mai Feng rubbed his hands excitedly, "Quick, give me 10 of them!"
Mai Feng was completely addicted to the spirit gathering pills.
He had been stuck at Advanced 9th-rank Beastmaster for three or four years without any sign of a Breakthrough.
A while ago, he heard someone introduce these spirit gathering pills, saying they had miraculous effects.
With a hint of curiosity, Mai Feng bought some to try, and the result left him pleasantly surprised; his Realm actually showed signs of loosening, and he couldn't have been more excited.
It was just that these spirit gathering pills were a bit expensive; one pill actually cost 3,000 Mid-Grade Spirit Stones.
A bottle of ten was slightly cheaper, charging him 29,800 Mid-Grade Spirit Stones.
Mai Feng had already bought three bottles before and felt a Breakthrough was imminent, so he hurried over to buy another bottle.
As long as he reached the Grandmaster-level Beast Tamer rank, his future days would be much easier.
Old Jia, however, said with a smile, "You know the medicinal effects of the spirit gathering pill; everyone is scrambling for them."
"Moreover, this pill hasn't been officially recognized, and the inspections are strict, leading to a serious shortage in the subsequent supply."
"So, you understand!"
Mai Feng was also a shrewd man; how could he not hear Old Jia's meaning? He said with a darkened face, "Speak, how much has it gone up this time?"
Old Jia showed his big black teeth and said with a grin, "Not much, not much, just a 3-fold increase!"
After hearing this, Mai Feng felt terrible: "Is this how you do business? Why don't you just go and rob someone!"
Old Jia didn't get angry because of this and remained smiling: "I am robbing you. Buy it or not, there are plenty of people who will!"
He was just that direct, hiding nothing.
Mai Feng stamped his feet in anger, but what could he do? He couldn't exactly rob him, could he?
The key was that a few days ago, a Grandmaster Level 2nd-rank Beast Tamer tried to rob Old Jia, and as a result, four of his beast pets were taken down by one of Old Jia's beast pets.
The strength was simply too terrifying!
What could he, a High-level Beastmaster, do against the other party?
But this was just too expensive; one bottle of spirit gathering pills was equivalent to him buying a B-grade Yao Beast egg.
Helpless, for the sake of breaking through his Realm, Mai Feng could only grit his teeth and buy it.
After he left, Old Jia packed up his stall and went to a deserted place. With a light wipe of his hand across his face, his face changed, and even the big black teeth disappeared.
On the long street of the black market, a bearded seller soon appeared...
