Chapter 240

Thinking of this, a new idea emerged in Lin Feng's mind involuntarily.

Since this sword possessed self-consciousness, why not find a way to change its consciousness, thereby making the sword obey his commands?

However, changing the consciousness of this sword was not an easy task; at the very least, it required him to possess the ability to change the memories of other people or animals.

"The ability to distort memories? It seems I have such a Gui in my hands!"

To be honest, Lin Feng had no shortage of Gui with various abilities, it was just that sometimes he simply didn't focus on cultivating them.

"Clatter~"

Accompanied by the turning pages of the Corpse-Planting and Gui-Raising Scripture, Lin Feng soon found a Gui that could satisfy his requirement.

"Nightmare Little Gui"

This was a Gui that appeared to have heavy dark circles under its eyes, blood-red eyes, and a gaunt appearance, looking overall like someone who had died suddenly from staying up too late.

Lin Feng previously hadn't had many thoughts about this Gui, because its ability was to enter dreams, but because its level was too low, its range of effect was relatively limited, only able to invade the dreams of one or two ordinary people at a time.

"Invading dreams, creating false memories, capable of killing invisibly; it's just that its potential is truly too low, merely at the level of a low-grade corpse seed, otherwise it could have been cultivated well."

Looking at this Gui, Lin Feng summoned it directly, and after sighing, he immediately set about dismembering it.

Next, the Shuzhuan Gui was also summoned by Lin Feng, and then Lin Feng began the sacrificial ritual, letting the Shuzhuan Gui absorb and merge with this Nightmare Little Gui.

Soon the sacrificial ritual was completed; the Shuzhuan Gui's eyes appeared to have a bit more blood-red color, but other than that, there were no major changes.

Due to Lin Feng's cultivation over this period, the current Shuzhuan Gui had already grown to the level of a Fierce Gui; such a growth speed was naturally relatively slow compared to the Desperate Herding Gui and the Shuangzi Gui.

If it weren't for Lin Feng giving it a piece of Yin God Dharma Bone to boost its potential, its promotion speed would likely have been even slower.

Now that piece of Yin God Dharma Bone had already been partially absorbed by it; once it finished absorbing it completely, its potential should be able to rise to the level of a medium-grade corpse seed.

Of course, what Lin Feng cared about now was not this point, but rather what the ability of the Shuzhuan Gui was like after merging with the Nightmare Little Gui.

"Go and catch me a few wild beasts!"

To verify it was quite simple; Lin Feng directly issued this order to the heavy-armored Zhiren beside him, and these heavy-armored Zhiren immediately began to act swiftly.

Although the number of wild beasts in the mountain forests during winter was not large, there were still some, and with the strength of the heavy-armored Zhiren, catching a few beasts was naturally easy.

Soon, some roe deer, mountain wolves, and other beasts were brought before Lin Feng, bound by the heavy-armored Zhiren.

"Bang! Bang!"

Lin Feng was not polite to these beasts, knocking them on the head to make them pass out.

Subsequently, the Shuzhuan Gui began to act; it picked up the brush and book in its hands and began to write directly, and soon a large amount of text gradually formed an article.

Then, with a "Rip~" sound, that page on the book was torn off, and the paper drifted down onto a roe deer without any wind.

Then, the black ink on the paper began to spread over the roe deer's entire body like a living thing, finally merging completely into the roe deer's body.

After a while, the roe deer began to twitch all over, then suddenly woke up from its unconscious state with a start.

"Yo~ yoyo~"

The newly awakened roe deer looked a bit panicked at first, but soon, after seeing the situation around it clearly, it began to run around playfully.

It was as if this was the place it was most familiar with and felt safest in, and Lin Feng was the master who had raised it since it was small.

"I didn't expect the effect to be this good!"

Watching the roe deer rubbing against him and showing affection, Lin Feng could not help but feel a bit surprised.

Although this was just a wild beast, such an obvious change before and after was enough to show that the current Shuzhuan Gui already possessed the ability to easily distort the memories of other creatures.

"Try it on a mountain wolf!"

However, the roe deer was, after all, just a mindless beast, and Lin Feng did not stop his attempts because of this.

Following his order, the Shuzhuan Gui acted again, and soon a page fell onto a mountain wolf.

When the mountain wolf woke up, it first looked around vigilantly, then slowly relaxed, seemingly not finding any danger in the surroundings.

Upon seeing Lin Feng, it immediately wagged its tail and came before him, wanting to lick his hand.

"The mountain wolf is the same; it seems it can basically be confirmed that the Shuzhuan Gui can already alter the memories of ordinary creatures."

"However, the current level of the Shuzhuan Gui is still too low, only at the level of a Fierce Gui; wanting to distort and change the consciousness of that broken sword is still too big a gap!"

"Next, I should continue to improve the strength of the Shuzhuan Gui, and I can also find another Gui with higher potential to merge with it, forcibly raising the potential of the Shuzhuan Gui through this method!"

Seeing hope for solving the problem, Lin Feng immediately began a cultivation plan targeting the Shuzhuan Gui.

Although Lin Feng had not paid enough attention to this Gui before, with the resources he currently possessed, it was not a difficult task to quickly cultivate the Shuzhuan Gui into shape.

"Hoo~"

Three sticks of Gui-Raising Incense were lit by Lin Feng and handed to the Shuzhuan Gui, letting it receive them in the pottery bowl of nether soil before the grave to slowly absorb.

Subsequently, Lin Feng began to flip through the Corpse-Planting and Gui-Raising Scripture again, looking for Gui with high potential but relatively poor abilities.

Lin Feng had quite a few Gui transformed from low-grade corpse seeds, basically all small Gui with no great use, but the number of Gui transformed from medium-grade and high-grade corpse seeds was much smaller.

Especially for Gui transformed from high-grade corpse seeds, Lin Feng currently only had three: the Desperate Herding Gui, the Shuangzi Gui, and the Guai Shen Yi Gui.

The characteristics of these Gui were all that their abilities were peculiar, and they were all quite special types both before and after death.

For such Gui, Lin Feng would naturally find ways to cultivate them meticulously; besides these, there were the Gui transformed from medium-grade corpse seeds.

These Gui, logically speaking, had decent talent, but their abilities were not necessarily very strong, and quite a few even overlapped with the Gui Lin Feng was focusing on cultivating.

Soon, Lin Feng found two Gui that seemed quite suitable; both were transformed from medium-grade corpse seeds, and their abilities were Blood-Character Curse and Soul-Bewitching Path, respectively.

Lin Feng choosing these two Gui was not without reason; it was because these two Gui were the most suitable for the Shuzhuan Gui.

The Blood-Character Curse could strengthen the ghostly power of the text written by the Shuzhuan Gui, and it naturally had a strong auxiliary effect on distorting memories and will.

And the Soul-Bewitching Path could construct a consciousness maze for the Shuzhuan Gui, allowing it to make the other party fall into a consciousness maze and struggle to break free while changing and distorting the memories of other creatures.

With the addition of these two abilities, as long as the Shuzhuan Gui was promoted to a Fierce Gui, Lin Feng could begin to attempt to forcibly control that broken sword!
