Chapter 243: 217. Supreme Treasure Mutation
Before seeing the "Superpower Secret Scripture" compiled by the Great Xia Superpower Research Institute.
Yang Fan thought the five treasures he'd obtained through the Dream Realm were merely curiosities with magical power.
After finishing the Secret Scripture,
he was shocked to discover they were actually the legendary Supreme Treasures.
Yang Fan felt that the different Civilization Worlds calling them "Supreme Treasures" was indeed quite accurate.
Every evolution of a Supreme Treasure definitely leads to a huge enhancement.
Just like how the Thunder Branch evolved into the Thunder Shock Spear, killing a Giant Spider Monster in one blow, astonishing the entire Canglan Star.
And getting five Supreme Treasures all at once, he finally realized just how incredibly lucky he was.
Therefore.
When the Clone Puppet showed signs of abnormality, emerging spontaneously from his body, Yang Fan instantly became excited.
He glanced at the Soul Stealing Wisp and then at the puppet, muttering, "Do you want to devour superpowers again?"
Previously, the Clone Puppet had devoured a type of superpower, instantly increasing the number of clones by two, and now he naturally thought of this.
Without hesitation, Yang Fan grabbed the two Supreme Treasures and brought them close together.
"Buzz!"
The wisp's body trembled slightly.
A dim ghostly light appeared on the surface of the puppet, which slowly turned into an illusory state.
The Spiritual Source Value began to rapidly decline.
Two breaths later.
The Spiritual Source Value, originally over 600 points, was left with just over 300, having dropped by half.
The downward trend still hadn't stopped, only the speed had slowed considerably.
Yang Fan couldn't help but grumble, "I worked hard to accumulate so much, and it was gone before it even had the chance to warm up."
Originally, he had planned to boost his attribute points, not knowing that the Supreme Treasure would "intercept" this batch of Spiritual Source Value.
After a while.
The Spiritual Source Value was reduced to just over 50 points, and the decline finally halted.
Yang Fan clicked his tongue, feeling as if he'd regressed all at once.
At this moment.
The Clone Puppet returned to its original state from its illusory form.
He glanced at it and couldn't help but exclaim, "Huh, why have the puppet's eyes changed?"
The puppet's eyes, once ordinary buttons, had now become illusory, with faint swirling mist inside.
"Buzz!"
The Soul Stealing Wisp trembled once more, transmitting a stream of information.
Yang Fan was instantly both surprised and delighted, "Is it the 'Soul Traction Technique'? This ability seems really impressive!"
The puppet had devoured the "Soul Marriage" superpower, undergoing a miraculous mutation, granting the Supreme Treasure a new secret technique called "Soul Traction Technique."
Compared to Soul Marriage, this was a much more powerful ability.
Soul Marriage allowed planting a Seed of the Soul into someone else's soul to form a Soul Puppet.
But the Soul Puppet had a drawback.
Namely — it could only influence thoughts imperceptibly, unable to directly control them.
The explanation given by the Soul Stealing Wisp was absolutely thrilling.
"The Soul Traction Technique can release 'Soul Pulling Silk', quietly penetrating the target's soul.
"Once the number of Soul Pulling Silks reaches a certain amount, the soul can be completely controlled.
"The stronger the target, the more Soul Pulling Silks are needed.
"If the target's Spirit Value exceeds 1.5 times that of the caster, the Soul Traction Technique will be unable to control the target.
"If the target's Spirit Value exceeds 1.2 times that of the caster, there's a certain chance of failure for the Soul Traction Technique.
There was only one thought in Yang Fan's mind — awesome!
He keenly realized that if the target was a Warrior, as long as their Spiritual Power wasn't too much stronger than his own, the Soul Traction Technique would still work.
In comparison, Soul Marriage was much weaker.
The maximum Spirit Value of a target that this superpower could control was only 70% of his own.
The Soul Stealing Wisp provided another piece of information.
"The Soul Pulling Silk can be gathered into a 'Soul Whip' to perform soul whipping on the target.
"The damage caused by whipping depends on the gap in Spiritual Power between the two parties."
Yang Fan couldn't help but smile.
Not only was it a control skill, but also an attack skill, the few hundred points of Spiritual Source Value were well spent.
He felt a bit of an itch: "I'll try out the new skill later."

In the sky.
The host from the Faelan Duchy, A Lang, was aboard a helicopter which, after refueling, took off again.
Due to the complete loss of the Carmenia Rescue Team and the Great Xia Rescue Team's delay, the rescue operation had come to a halt.
Thus, A Lang's commentary voice carried a hint of despondency.
"From the sky you can see, the Great Xia People seem to still be preparing, not knowing how long they will need.
"I really hope the Great Xia People can speed up, after all, the Eastern Science is still in crisis, and the crew cannot wait long.
"I think everyone around the world hopes to see the Great Xia Ghost show its prowess again..."
Before he could finish.
A Lang suddenly spotted something different.
His tone instantly heightened: "Ladies and gentlemen, in the sea area on the right side of the research vessel, a big black spot seems to have appeared.
"The Giant Spider Monster is very likely back again; this is really bad news, the crew is in danger."
In the camera view.
A figure suddenly crawled out of a porthole, plunging directly into the sea and sinking straight down.
A Lang exclaimed, "My god! Another crew member has been dragged into the sea by a monster."
He spoke rapidly, "Earlier, a crew member faced the same misfortune.
"We specifically invited experts to analyze the video and discovered something very bizarre.
"The crew member's body passed through the porthole into the sea, yet the porthole itself wasn't broken at all.
"This crew member is encountering the same issue; I have to say, this is a very frightening place."
As A Lang spoke, his voice suddenly dropped.
Because the Giant Spider Monster quickly swam over, touched the crew member, and sank swiftly into the water.
No doubt about it.
The monster grabbed the "take-out" and left again.
A Lang sighed, "Everyone, we've witnessed another tragedy."
He quickly changed the topic, "I discovered something very strange. The giant spider monster never lingers near the research vessel for long.
"I can't quite understand why this is, but for the crew of the Eastern Science, it's barely considered good news.
"At least the monster won't climb onto the deck to hunt, and the crew can hold on a bit longer."
After a while.
A Lang suddenly shouted in shock, "Almighty Lord, can you guess what I see now?"
In the camera.
A certain sea area more than a kilometer away from the right side of the ship.
Two massive black shadows suddenly emerged from underwater, fiercely colliding, causing waves to rise on the water's surface.
A Lang's voice rose sharply again, "Unbelievable, these two giant spider monsters seem to be fighting each other.
"I can only think of one answer — a while ago, one giant spider monster captured prey, and another fought to seize the food."
This unexpected event immediately made headlines in news worldwide.
The world's social media platforms were abuzz with heated discussions.
*
Inside the abnormal space.
Yang Fan stood quietly on the deck of the Eastern Science, staring unblinking at the sea.
He held the clone puppet in his right hand.
Hundreds of invisible threads emerged from the puppet, extending underwater.
This is the new ability of the Supreme Treasure — Soul Pulling Silk.
Five minutes ago.
A giant spider monster quietly approached the hull, lurking underwater and waiting.
Relying on a profoundly mysterious instinct, it sensed that prey was about to be dragged underwater.
However.
This giant spider monster did not realize that it was just a mantis stalking a cicada, with a sparrow eyeing it.
And this sparrow was, naturally, Yang Fan.
He attempted to release a thread of Soul Pulling Silk, causing it to delve underwater, stealthily entwining around the monster's soul.
The giant spider monster was completely unaware.
Yang Fan spent several minutes releasing over three hundred threads of Soul Pulling Silk, weaving a Soul Net to encapture the monster's soul.
At this moment.
The giant spider monster still hadn't realized, patiently waiting for the prey to fall into the water.
Soon after.
A crewmember was cursed and dragged into the water.
The giant spider monster swiftly moved forward, tossed out two tentacles, tightly wrapping around the prey and pulling it underwater.
Then.
Yang Fan activated the Soul Traction Technique.
The giant spider monster realized the danger and struggled frantically.
But it was already too late.
The giant spider monster quickly became a puppet controlled by the Supreme Treasure.
Yang Fan then manipulated the puppet to launch an attack on another giant spider monster.
This was the true nature of the monster's self-slaughter.
At this very moment.
Yang Fan's eyes were filled with admiration: "Indeed, the Supreme Treasure!"
Using attributes as the evaluation criteria,
The physical Value of the giant spider monster would definitely not be less than 600 points, and its Spirit Value exceeded 200 points.
Without utilizing the Supreme Treasure, relying solely on Superpower, Yang Fan might not be able to overcome the giant spider monster.
But with the powerful Secret Technique of the Supreme Treasure, he easily controlled a formidable giant spider monster.
A minute later.
The puppet was defeated.
The other giant spider monster viciously tore the puppet into dozens of pieces and cruelly pulled out its insides.
This was not surprising.
The puppet's physique was slightly smaller than other monsters, and its strength was a bit weaker.
Additionally, Yang Fan was controlling a puppet for the first time, his manipulation was not skillful, exposing many flaws during the combat, hence the one-sided defeat.
After a moment.
The Soul Stealing Wisp flickered by.
At hand, 152.6 points of Spiritual Source Value, and 1 point of True Origin Value!
Yang Fan was extremely satisfied: "I can acquire Energy without lifting a finger, this Secret Technique surpasses the Thunder Shock Spear."
He turned his gaze to the other giant spider monster.
The other giant spider monster was gnawing on the corpse of the previous one, greedily swallowing the flesh.
Densely packed Soul Pulling Silk wrapped tightly around the giant spider monster's soul.
Although it had won the battle, it hadn't truly achieved victory.
Because Yang Fan took advantage of the fighting opportunity, stealthily implanting one thread after another of Soul Pulling Silk.
He had a thought.
The giant spider monster struggled briefly, and soon calmed down.
It became a puppet.
Yang Fan smiled slightly and commanded, "Go find other giant spider monsters for me."
"Hiss!"
The giant spider monster responded with a sound and quickly swam towards another direction.
Just then.
Yang Fan suddenly sensed a feeling of being watched.
His expression changed instantly: "Not good!"
The ultra-powerful Perception from Super Sensing Superpower allowed him to sense that danger was approaching.
