Chapter 291: A Fallen Spirit Prophet?

Although it was his first time using the abilities of an Ancient Puppet Master to commit a crime, Li Yu's execution was exceptionally smooth.

In his haste, he hadn't even clearly seen which races or God-Chosen were present, tossing them all into the battlefield in one go.

He only left behind a silver-haired Spirit race woman whom he held onto, instinctively initiating his Law-Stealing divine ability; his heart and will transformed into formless Qi, scanning and perceiving the mysteries within her body without the slightest bit of courtesy.

Because Li Yu was wearing the skin of a "City Lord's Mansion Representative," his actions at this moment were completely unscrupulous.

The only thing he hadn't expected was that his very first target would nearly cause an accident.

"What a powerful talent for spiritual perception..."

"Hm?"

Before Li Yu could steal any other secret arts possessed by the other party, he first obtained a certain ability.

A power, or rather a talent, that Li Yu didn't particularly want.

High sensitivity!

According to the database collected by the little robot while roaming the Spirit Realm, Li Yu knew that the Spirit race was an extremely indulgent, arrogant, and self-destructive race.

They indulged in pleasure, and for the sake of various sensory experiences and mental stimulation, they were capable of doing anything that defied common sense.

But what was it like specifically?

He didn't know.

Now, he began to understand.

Li Yu had originally thought this would just be a routine touch-based theft; once he finished touching this Spirit woman, he would head straight for the next target.

There were too many candidates in the battlefield, and Li Yu didn't intend to let a single one go.

But unexpectedly, he hit the jackpot with the very first one.

And it was a massive jackpot.

This Spirit woman had an extremely special identity; she was called "Star Tear," a prophet whose ambition was to restore the glory of the Spirit race.

Before that, she had done another thing: she had collected as much history and knowledge related to the Spirit race as possible, imprinting it within her body, her flesh and blood, and between her genes.

This was her way of cultivation!

Yet, she clearly hadn't expected that she would be subjected to touch-based law-stealing by someone on the Spirit Venerable path who possessed a perverted level of control over the body.

Thus, the next moment, Li Yu felt a massive amount of knowledge come surging toward him.

Just a hurried glance, a subconscious reading, made Li Yu impatient to immerse himself in it.

For no other reason!

The subject matter was too vast.

The level of the secrets was even higher.

"The origin and destruction of the Spirit race..."

"The fall of the Spirit race granted the divine entity 【Slaanesh】 even more powerful authority..."

"The abilities and secret arts possessed by the Spirit race?"

"I've hit the jackpot!"

At this very moment, only this sentence surfaced in Li Yu's mind.

The bubbles of truth on his eye membranes began to flicker frantically.

However, just as he wanted to immerse himself in peeking at the secrets, the other party began to struggle violently.

This was normal, after all.

Although Li Yu's law-stealing divine ability and method were very covert.

He had unfortunately run into a Spirit woman with high sensitivity and extreme emotions.

In her perception: she was being touched all over, from the inside out, in a thorough, complete way.

A sense of shame and anger swept through her heart and soul, and she immediately wanted to deal a lethal blow to Li Yu.

Fortunately, the two were currently in a special state; before she could act, her methods were already sensed by Li Yu.

"It seems to be some kind of summoning divine ability or secret art, using bloodline as a medium to summon the gods or heroic spirits of their own race to descend?"

"It seems the Spirit race is deeply involved in the path of the soul."

Logically, Li Yu should have used that ancient trick again at this moment.

To send this Spirit woman called "Star Tear" into the battlefield.

But he couldn't bear to.

"The Spirit race was the overlord of the stars in a certain ancient era; besides being naturally powerful and having long lifespans, they also possessed extraordinary technological heritage."

"But they later indulged in pleasure and lust, pursuing various sensory and spiritual stimulations to an extreme degree, having no bottom line when they got high—more so than any demon or monster. The feedback generated by the entire race falling together allowed the evil god 【Slaanesh】, who holds that divine authority, to obtain unimaginable power."

"Originally not particularly strong, He leaped into the ranks of top-tier evil gods."

"As a 'reward,' He released a terrifying divine ability targeting the soul upon the entire Spirit race, leading to their near-extinction."

"Only a few individuals who left early, who advocated for reason and restraint, luckily survived."

"At the same time, He also completed the hunt and devouring of the Spirit race's gods, with only a mere three or four Spirit deities surviving."

"Having devoured an entire pantheon, the Slaanesh god became even more powerful, while the Spirit race, which had once created a brilliant civilization, fell into a state of desperate self-rescue."

It was only a tug-of-war for a second or two, yet such a large mass of secret knowledge was dumped directly onto him.

The bubbles of truth immediately surged forward by a small margin.

Li Yu was undoubtedly someone who craved secrets; how could he bear to let go?

This was a treasure of a woman!

When this thought surfaced, Li Yu subconsciously made a very offensive, yet effective, move.

"Don't move around, let me give your body a proper check-up."

As this mental whisper sounded, Li Yu activated his Succubus power.

Li Yu's main divine ability and reliance was the Spirit Venerable path.

But because of his top-ranked 'big sister' Yi Ge, Li Yu could also open a separate table when it came to the way of the Succubus.

Now he didn't dare use the Spirit Venerable techniques for fear of exposing himself.

But the fact that Li Yu was favored by the outer-realm god "Vortex God," and had even brought a brand-new 【Vortex God Path】 back to the present world, was known to the Zuo Ci puppet, so there was no need for concern.

As a Spirit prophet, Star Tear was undoubtedly very powerful.

If he really let her summon an ancient Spirit heroic spirit, Li Yu would be in for a miserable time.

Unfortunately, just because she was a Spirit, and just because she had high sensitivity and high perception.

Her body had fallen into Li Yu's hands at this moment, and she was practically countered to death.

When Li Yu switched to "Succubus"!

Star Tear understood in an instant why the ancient Spirits had fallen.

Endless pleasure flooded over her like a tide.

Even if she didn't want it, it was no use.

Racial talents have pros and cons; innate high spiritual perception can bring powerful strength, but it can also bring this kind of extreme stimulation that cannot be refused.

Every inch of flesh and blood in her body was trembling.

Joy and pleasure occupied her heart and soul.

If it weren't for the fact that Li Yu was currently controlling her body, the "Spirit Prophet Star Tear," who appeared like a cold, silver-haired goddess, would have already been unable to stop herself from making some unsightly sounds.

With her fatal weakness held by Li Yu, if he were even slightly more malicious, Star Tear would be finished.

Not only would she completely become Li Yu's plaything, but she would also be twisted and alienated, losing her sense of self.

Fortunately, Li Yu also had his bottom line.

He only wanted to peek at secrets; he didn't really want to make a Spirit prophet fall into evil and switch to worshiping the Slaanesh god.

He tried his best to control the threshold of pleasure, making Star Tear lose control of her body while not letting her completely sink into it.

During this process, Li Yu gained a rich harvest.

One mass of secrets after another was frantically dumped onto him.

There was history, and there was information related to abilities.

"Because of the special nature of the Spirit race, this race formed a twisted symbiotic relationship with the evil god 【Slaanesh】, the latter viewing the souls of the Spirit race as the most delicious food... especially prophets like Star Tear; once they die without sufficient protection, their souls are immediately targeted by the Slaanesh god, who will stop at nothing to get them."

"At their peak in ancient times, the Spirit race possessed the power to contend with star gods in the Spirit Realm, including the Blood Age Star Lord. They were a long-lived species, and the souls of the entire race could maintain contact through a secret art, and they could directly reincarnate after death; these peculiarities allowed them to crush other races."

"Although the Spirit race population is extremely small after the catastrophe of extinction, they possess extremely powerful soul technology, capable of using the souls of dead Spirits to produce various incomparably powerful 'Nether Troop Types'."

"The 【Mechanical Necron Race】, which now possesses powerful influence in the Spirit Realm, was once a defeated opponent of the ancient Spirit race."

"As a Spirit prophet, Star Tear possesses telepathy, divination and foresight, destiny secret runes, soul-series techniques, and so on; converted to the God-Ascension path, she is already an existence at the Sequence Four level."

"There are three Spirit deities clearly still alive: the God of Trickery, the God of War, and the God of Death."

"The most powerful among them is the God of Trickery, because He not only foresaw the great catastrophe in advance and escaped, but also possesses some power to contend with the Slaanesh god."

"And the God of Death is not an old god of the Spirit race, but a new god born and brewed by the group through secret arts after the catastrophe of extinction, and it already possesses a portion of a divine entity."

These seemingly complex pieces of information were actually read and understood by Li Yu within a few seconds.

Of course, even so, it could not cover up the blasphemous act he had committed against the Spirit prophet "Star Tear" at this moment.

From Li Yu's perspective: it was he who couldn't resist the temptation of the secret knowledge and forcibly controlled the Spirit woman before him.

As for Star Tear's perspective, it went without saying.

It could be called an unprovoked disaster, a lecherous intruder descending from the sky.

If it weren't for the fact that it was clear the other party was not a Slaanesh God-Chosen, but another divine nature with similar authority but a completely different essence, she probably would have fought to the death.

Even if it meant suicide, she could not let herself truly fall into depravity.

And the reason she did not continue after her first failed resistance, aside from being hard-controlled by the succubus Li Yu, was another important factor.

That was that she had quietly used her soul to initiate a divination, and gained some harvests that surprised her greatly.

Therefore, she decided to endure it for now.

As for the perspective of others?

"The Order Master of the Disaster Star is indeed a qualified Chosen of Change; he looks down on distinguished guests of other races, but once he caught a Spirit Race prophet involved with soul and knowledge, he was unwilling to let go and began to toy with her."

"The divinity of the Vortex God he stole is also extremely bizarre; it can actually make a prophet who pursues rationality and restraint fall completely, showing signs of losing composure and descending into lust."

"This person must be used by me; he will be a great help."

Clearly, this was the perspective of the Zuo Ci puppet.

The only other powerhouse on the battlefield with leisure time was naturally the cross-dressing big shot with purple tentacles, the true Chosen of Change, Joseph.

At this moment, he was also looking at Li Yu with a gaze of slight appreciation.

"Inducing a Spirit Race prophet to fall into depravity as a follower of Slaanesh."

"Hmm, that is a decent way to play."

"On this human, I smell the scent of my own kind."

"A lecherous puppet master of the past and present?"
