The Rise of the Black Plain

Chapter 2118  Soul Puppet

When the level 94 expert, who had recently joined the empire after Veora was incorporated into Minos' forces, said his words, all the experts watching the experiment looked at him.

Minos remembered the methods he was taught by the curse in this area of Albano and asked. 'Which method? What exactly do you have in mind?'

The man explained. 'The ancients have developed cultivation techniques compatible with these bones' strange energy. Among them, I think two types of ancient methods might work to stabilize Titus' soul temporarily.

The first is something that looks like a transmutation technique. It's hazardous and involves a very high level of spiritual transformation. Titus would have to be in control while Your Majesty would guide him. The risk of this method is spiritual disfigurement... In short, Titus might stop being a Nine-Tailed Fox and become a new creature if this method works. After that, the world might or might not recognize him, which might cause some kind of Lightning Tribulation...'

Another expert asked, 'What about the second method?'

'You're not thinking of the soul puppet technique, are you?

'That's right.' The level 94 man nodded in agreement while everyone else looked at Minos with concern.

This method was one of the oldest of the Ancient Folk, one that involved the loss of freedom of the party being manipulated by the technique. Soul Puppet was a technique for at least two people to use, a method that would turn its target into a puppet of the controlling user.

'Soul Puppet can give stability to Titus' soul if it really works.' The Demigod from Veora said to everyone, looking at Minos. 'Titus will never be able to have his freedom again and will become a slave to Your Majesty. But this might work to save his life.

I would use Soul Ppuppet if anyone here wants to know my opinion. This technique will only depend on Your Majesty, so your chances of success will be greater.'

Minos understood the expert's opinion and felt it made much sense. 'However, we'll let Titus decide.'

Then, he quickly explained the options they had under the circumstances.

'I won't be able to control anything. I'll trust you, Minos.' Titus said quickly, choosing the option that would make him a living puppet.

With that decided, Minos said to his men in a sighing tone, 'Now we'll have the problem of using this method without any prior preparation.'

They were still developing ways to use the methods of the Ancient Folk safely. Some of these ancient techniques had dangerous flaws that needed to be corrected.

Since the purpose of developing these ancient methods was for Minos to use them on his own to become stronger, they hadn't prepared for this experiment.

'With the amount of chaotic energy Your Majesty has, I don't think you'll be in any danger. Although these methods have their flaws, they all depend on chaotic energy. Their risk is greater when their user has little chaotic energy, which is the case for most of us. But it's different for you, Your Majesty.' The Demigod who had suggested the procedure confidently said, while the others in the area agreed.

The only reason why the ancients couldn't develop such a method was because they were very limited in their cultivation and understanding at that time, a time when there weren't even any Sages in this world, and the amount of chaotic energy in this world was very low.

But these men could easily distinguish various problems with these methods and realize something so essential.

Minos sighed and said. 'Very well. Please give me the mnemonic of the Soul Puppet technique. I want to try it before it's too late.'

Those who had already done a little work on the technique wasted no time in telling Minos step-by-step how to learn it.

As he listened to the mnemonic of the technique, he saw in his mind old scenes of people dominating each other while using this ancient technique.

Even though this method had been abandoned by the ancients, it was still functional. It had been used by countless prehistoric cultivators of that time.

After seeing the movements necessary for this technique to work, Minos felt the chaotic energy deeply embedded in his skeleton come to life, expressing the "invisible" power he had accumulated over the years of absorbing the powers of the giant bones.

When this happened, even the level 99 Demigods who were focused on advancing to level 100 felt uncomfortable because they noticed something completely out of the ordinary happening near them.

'This is Minos' aura!' Aarav thought to himself, trying not to lose focus on what he was doing, realizing how powerful that guy really was.

Without actively using the chaotic energy in his body, Minos could only fight level 97 individuals if he used all of his fusion power. But when he used the first method of manipulating chaotic energy, he immediately proved to be completely different.

Willow felt this as she tried to control her curiosity so she wouldn't stop what she was doing and look at what was happening to Minos. 'That feeling... This looks like a weird level 98 monster!'

Henry also realized that the person behind this was Minos and that this technique would be able to put him on the same level as a level 98 Demigod while he was using it.

However, he kept his curiosity to himself, thinking he would have to talk to Minos about this in the future.

Amid this, everyone else in the Spatial Kingdom looked at Minos strangely, feeling a colossal power coming from his direction but also a great reverence for him, as if he had ceased to be a 'mortal' like them at that moment.

"Your Majesty..." Several people murmured as the body of Minos' soul projection pulsed, and a special pentagram materialized in front of one of his hands, pointing at Titus.

'Let's start with the Soul Puppet, Titus. If it doesn't work...'

'I know. Don't worry. I'll be fine even if I die.' Titus confirmed for the last time.

With these words, Minos activated the technique, feeling too much pain to do so himself but going all the way as the pentagram connected him and Titus.

Soul Puppet!

The space around Titus distorted, the energy around him turning blood red and his body glowing intensely white.

The pentagram passed through him as if he were made of nothing, pushing his soul out of his body.

While this was happening, Minos made a hand seal, connecting the extreme points of Titus' essence to himself while connecting the body to the old fox's soul.

Once this was done, the result could not be changed.

A glow exploded from Titus' position, causing the entire Spatial Kingdom to glow for a second as if a star had blinked one last time before dying.
