274: Chapter 274 Wang Lan's Reminder

The "God-Splitting Technique" is a Divine Thought secret technique; it isn't just used for splitting one's Divine Thought.

Lin Yun flipped through the contents of the secret technique in his mind, becoming more alarmed the more he read.

Besides the core Divine Thought splitting, this secret technique also included various methods such as attack, defense, enslavement, and Possession.

Each one was exquisite and peerless, far surpassing any Divine Thought secret technique currently existing in the Qilin Kingdom.

As an attack method, it could condense Divine Thought into needles to pierce an enemy's Soul.

At best, it would cause the enemy's Divine Thought to be damaged, resulting in a splitting headache.

At worst, it would directly destroy the enemy's Soul, turning them into an idiot.

As a defense method, it could construct a Divine Thought shield around the Soul to block an enemy's Divine Thought attacks.

As an enslavement method, it could plant a Divine Thought brand within an enemy's Soul, making them follow one's orders completely from the bottom of their heart.

The Possession method was even more terrifying.

One could directly perform Possession and Fusion with another's Soul, thereby occupying their body and obtaining their Bloodline, talent, and cultivation.

The enslavement secret technique the Ninth Princess cultivated could only enslave a single creature.

But the "God-Splitting Technique" could enslave nine at the same time.

Nine.

Just thinking about it made Lin Yun feel excited.

Over the next few days, Lin Yun immersed himself completely in his Cultivation.

The two Divine Thought avatars were essentially two versions of him.

During these few days, he had tried leaving one avatar in his body while the other Divine Thought avatar went to another planet.

No matter how far apart they were, the two were connected in mind and thought, like a single entity.

Whatever was seen over there, he would immediately know over here.

Whatever was thought over here, it could also be immediately sensed over there.

It was a wonderful feeling.

It was as if his consciousness had been split into two, existing in two places at once.

Lin Yun even tried letting one avatar fly into space while he remained in the cultivation room.

While the avatar in space looked at the sky full of stars, the avatar in the cultivation room kept its eyes closed, yet the images of those stars clearly emerged in his mind.

He could even have the avatar in space perform a Divine Thought attack on a floating meteorite.

When the meteorite was struck by the Divine Thought, a crack appeared on its surface.

It worked.

Lin Yun was overjoyed.

Next, he practiced the defense, enslavement, and Possession methods.

He practiced each one repeatedly until he had mastered them.

After finishing the cultivation of all the methods, Lin Yun began to ponder a question.

He wanted to find a powerful creature to possess.

Only then could he fully unleash the terrifying power of the "God-Splitting Technique."

By possessing a powerful creature, he could obtain its Bloodline and talent.

Then, he could use that creature's body to fight, explore, and acquire more resources.

Meanwhile, his own body could stay safely in the manor with his wives.

He could have the best of both worlds.

The target for Possession should ideally be a creature with a Bloodline Legacy.

Lin Yun scoured various records and asked the Ninth Princess, Qu Yanran, Wang Shuyao, and others, but none of them could find anything that met his requirements.

Creatures with Bloodline Legacies were far too rare.

Let alone in the Qilin Kingdom, they were hard to find even in the Lingyuan Empire.

Lin Yun felt a bit regretful.

Without a Bloodline Legacy, possessing an ordinary Yao Beast didn't mean much.

The strongest creature he had encountered so far was the Star-Devouring Creature, the Starlight Grass.

That thing had infinite potential; once grown, it could reach the seventh, eighth, or even ninth rank.

Unfortunately, that Starlight Grass had long since been enslaved by the Ninth Princess, Hua Caili, using a secret technique, becoming one of her combat assets. Naturally, Lin Yun couldn't very well possess it.

Lin Yun thought for a moment and decided to go take a look in the Secret Realm on Qilin Planet.

While he was at it, he would enslave a few powerful Yao Beasts.

Although they couldn't compare to the Starlight Grass, fifth or sixth-rank Yao Beasts would be sufficient.

The secret technique the Ninth Princess cultivated could only enslave one, but the "God-Splitting Technique" could enslave nine.

He would enslave a few first; it wouldn't be too late to swap them out later if he encountered better ones.

The entrance to the Secret Realm was still that thousand-meter-long spatial rift.

Lin Yun paid the fee and stepped into the rift.

Light flashed, his vision blurred, and he had already arrived inside the Secret Realm.

The world inside the Secret Realm was completely different from the outside.

The sky was pale purple—that was the edge of the Secret Realm.

The ground was dark brown, the vegetation was lush, and the trees towered into the clouds.

The air was filled with rich cosmic energy; a single breath felt refreshing.

The deeper one went, the stronger the cosmic energy became.

At the periphery, it was twice or thrice as much; in the depths, it could reach ten or twenty times.

Cultivating here was much faster than outside.

No wonder so many Martial Artists were willing to come to the Secret Realm for exploration.

Not long after Lin Yun entered, his Communicator rang.

It was Wang Lan.

"Brother-in-law, Uncle, did you go to the Secret Realm?" Wang Lan's voice carried a hint of urgency.

Lin Yun: "Yes, what's wrong?"

Wang Lan lowered his voice: "Wang Tianming went there too after finding out you entered the Secret Realm. Brother-in-law, you must be careful."

Wang Tianming.

Lin Yun remembered that name.

Back when he had just started university on Minglu Planet, he was short on money and had handed over the Yellow-Grade Ultimate Guidance Technique rewarded by the System, the "Five Hearts Toward Heaven Method," to the Empire, thinking he could make a fortune from subsequent royalty shares.

Unfortunately, he didn't.

More than half of the top ten copyright sales in the Empire were Wang Tianming's works.

His "Nine-Fold Guidance Technique" in particular had been ranked first for a long time with sales in the millions; Lin Yun had been extremely envious at the time.

It wasn't until later, after Qu Yanran spent two hundred billion to buy forty percent of the "Five Hearts Toward Heaven Method" copyright from Lin Yun and promoted it heavily, that the "Nine-Fold Guidance Technique" was pushed off its top sales spot.

Lin Yun had a deep impression of the name not because of his works, but because of his cultivation.

A fifth-rank Perfection expert was a top-tier existence in the Qilin Kingdom.

Back when Lin Yun was still at the second rank, a fifth-rank Perfection expert was a lofty figure he couldn't even dream of looking up to.

Now, this important figure was coming to the Secret Realm.

Furthermore, Wang Lan had specifically warned him to be careful.

"Why would Wang Tianming want to cause trouble for me?" Lin Yun asked.

Wang Lan sighed:

"Brother-in-law, you don't know. Wang Tianming has been at fifth-rank Perfection for a very, very long time; his lifespan is nearing its limit."

"A fifth-rank Martial Artist has a lifespan of 3,200 years. He is already over 3,100 years old, with less than a hundred years left to live."

"I heard that a hundred years ago, he went to the Lingyuan Empire to exchange for a secret technique that allows him to possess others."

Wang Lan paused, then continued:

"Fourth Brother-in-law, Third Uncle, you must be careful."

"Even though he's also a member of my Wang Family, the Family is too large, and my father can't control everyone."

"Wang Tianming's branch and our branch haven't had a good relationship to begin with."

"If he really makes a move against you, my father won't be able to stop him."

Lin Yun understood.

Wang Tianming was dying and wanted to possess someone else to extend his life.

As for himself, he had the Fertility Holy Body, outstanding talent, was young, and in good health.

If he could possess him, Wang Tianming could not only live for several thousand more years but also possess the Fertility Holy Body, ensuring a boundless future from then on.

What a clever calculation.

Lin Yun sneered: "Don't worry, I'll be careful."

Wang Lan gave a few more reminders before ending the conversation.

He was truly worried about this Fourth Brother-in-law and Third Uncle.

Although he had found people to deal with Lin Yun when Lin Yun married Princess Liuli, hadn't that failed?

Later, when his Third Aunt Wang Shuyao and Fourth Sister Wang Yulan married Lin Yun, he tried to stop it and was subsequently beaten up by them.

At first, he was furious, but after seeing his Third Aunt and Fourth Sister doing better and better over the years, their cultivation levels rising, and them occasionally rewarding him with good things, he had become completely convinced.

Now, he truly regarded Lin Yun as his brother-in-law and uncle.

He didn't want anything bad to happen to him.
