Martial Research Master

207 NIGHT ATTACK-The leader couldn’t believe that four Qi generals managed to take care of 20 practitioners, half of which were in the Qi King level. Just what sort of monsters these were. He couldn’t feel any Law energy coming out of their bodies, yet they were powerful enough to contend with Law users like him.

“Who are you?” Those were the only words coming out of the leader’s mouth. His mind was unable to comprehend the situation.

“I hope whichever senior is helping him out, give a face to the Ti family and back off. We would regard this as a token of friendship from your side.” There must be a powerful cultivator helping these four from the shadows. They need to be made aware of the fact that the team was sent by the Ti family.

“Didn’t you come to capture and find about my origins? The ‘who are you’ question seems irrelevant as of now” Lu Ming said with a sarcastic expression. “I guess there is no one backing you up. As of now, we need to get ahead with our operations as of now.”

............................

“Are you sure about soul scourging these people? Killing most of the members has already laid down the stone of grudge between you and the group backing them up. The captains are sure to be important people from their respective forces. Eliminating them would result in fanning the flames.”

“They shouldn’t have underestimated my strength. Since they came here with the motive of harming me, they should be prepared to leave their life here. Also, I am not thinking about killing these people. I have a different plan in mind for them.”

“There is another technique which I haven’t practiced in a long time.”

“Are you referring to the puppeteering method?” Lu Ming nodded his head. The puppeteering method required him to ingest a soul seed within the enemy’s soul space. The only catch here was that the soul strength of the enemy should be less than his.

.....

“Although the creation of soul seed was a taxing task before, the break-through into soul grandmaster gave me the confidence informing them without any problems.

............................

Lu Ming began the soul scourge. He started with the leader of the first group, who was the only one still conscious after the conclusion of the assault. Lu Ming grabbed his head and began injecting his soul QI into the leader’s body. After he managed to gain some control over the soul space, the process of soul scourge began.

The leader’s scream filled the alley as his memories were being inspected by Lu Ming. As informed by him, he was a member of the Peng family who was sent with the objective of capturing Lu Ming. His name was Peng Ren and was one of the outer elders of the family. Lu Ming soon gained information regarding the main perpetrators of the event. Apparently, the order to capture him came directly from the upper echelon.

The priority of this capture was set very high. The only thing they underestimated was Lu Ming’s actual strength. They considered him a prodigal QI general level practitioner who could fight those above his level. It was the reason behind the Peng family sending one of their top tier practitioners to the initial Qi king level. They never would have expected that Lu Ming would have this amount of help and he himself was powerful enough to destroy the whole squad.

Lu Ming also got his hands on the general outline, the inner standings, and working of the Peng family. He also got hold of the information regarding its treasury, elder’s hall, and various members. It is best to know every detail about your enemy before taking any action on them.

After reaching the end of the process. Lu Ming injected another massive quantity of soul power into Peng Ren’s mind to formulate the soul seed. The seed planted itself in one of the corners and invisible threads began to emerge out of it which soon covered the whole soul space of the leader. It was only after establishing the seed for the first time, that its miracles began to show themselves. The soul seed wasn’t only a method of controlling and communicating with the host, it would also extract a small amount of soul power from the host and gradually grow in size.

“The soul seed when extracted would provide you with the same amount of soul Qi it had absorbed during the time of its existence within the practitioner. Although a single soul’s seed seems minute in existence, if we increase the number of soul seeds to hundreds, the amount of soul Qi obtained from them is quite substantial. It could help you promote through levels.”

Lu Ming decided to create an articulate plan regarding the future recipients of these soul seeds of his. It would be beneficial for him if he could use soul seeds on the defeated opponents rather than killing them.

.............................

The next in line were the group leaders of the third and fourth squad. Lu Ming planted another set of soul seeds within their soul space and scourged their memories. It turned out one of the squads was from the Teng family, who received orders from their elders to inspect the situation from a safe distance unless Lu Ming gets captured.

“My analogy was true after all. Ten families must have realized the significance of lighting up all twenty lanterns. In their whole ancestry, there must exist at least one person who must have entered the illusion space. The Teng family patriarch was said to be the leader of the Ten households. He must have been one of the three participants who entered the illusion space a hundred years ago.”

As expected, the third group was sent by the Tulu family. Lu Ming let the two people go after gaining all the information from their minds. It was time for the last captain.

Lu Ming was quite interested in seeing who was under the hood. The brown-stone guild must have sent some capable to capture him. Just who had the guts to take on this mission? He removed the mask from the leader’s face and a shocking view presented itself.

It was none other than the girl who greeted him within the guild. She seems to be referred to as the young mistress of the guild. Lu Ming licked his lips. This was a rare opportunity to earn quite a great amount of profits.
