Chapter 294 The Hidden Martial Soul, the Karma of All Beings!
This was the first time Cheng Xiao and Ji Yunli had ever seen Lin Yi's martial spirit.

Why is it a monkey?
And it was a monkey that looked so pathetic, trapped under the mountain.

Why did Lin Yi take a liking to this kind of martial spirit?
If I remember correctly, the Old Emperor's selection treasury contains many ancient ferocious beasts that look menacing and are not to be trifled with.

Can this monkey compare to those ancient ferocious beasts?
Amidst their questioning gazes.

Of the tens of thousands of soul cores that Lin Yi took out, countless fluorescent lights were continuously absorbed by the Martial Soul Heart Ape.

Lin Yi could also see that the appearance of his martial soul was also changing.

Firstly, because of the unlocking of innate soul artifacts.

A golden crown was now placed on the monkey's originally bald head.

Two phoenix feathers soared into the sky, making him appear even more divine.

A faint golden light appeared in the eyes of the monkey.

To make it look more lively and spirited.

Then, the enormous Five Elements Mountain that was suppressing his body gradually shrank.

However, this only applies to shrinking.

The soul power of more than 10,000 soul cores was drained.

The transformation of the martial spirit also came to a halt.

Lin Yi sighed inwardly.

As expected, these soul cores are still not enough to completely unseal the Great Sage.

Reopening the Martial Soul panel, Lin Yi felt refreshed and his eyes lit up.

[Mind Monkey (Seal Removed 50%)]

[Type: Martial Soul]

[Grade: Mythical]

[Characteristics: Destructive Power: S+, Defense: SS, Durability: S, Resistance: SSS+, Growth Potential: ???]

[Resonance Attributes: Health +15%, Physical Defense +20%, Magic Resistance +20%, Attack Power +12%, Effect Resistance +15%]

[Initial Awakened Soul Skills: Grand Celestial Technique, Fiery Eyes, Seventy-Two Transformations, ??? (Sealed)]

[Soul Skill Slots: 10]

[Innate Soul Weapon: Phoenix Wing Purple Gold Crown (Unlocked), ? ? ? ? ? (Sealed)]

[Further learnable Soul Skills: None. This Martial Soul cannot learn other general Soul Skills.]

All features have seen significant improvements.

The percentage bonus provided by Martial Soul Resonance has also been increased.

Of course, the most important things are the Soul Skills and the effects of the unlocked Soul Weapons.

Lin Yi's eyes lit up when he clicked on the details of the Soul Skills and Soul Weapons.

[Grand Celestial Technique: Passive Soul Skill, grants 100% resistance to abnormal status effects, and this resistance cannot be reduced by any law effects below the Supreme level.]

【Sharp Eyes: Passive Soul Skill. You can see through any stealth, concealment, or disguise effects below level 10. Furthermore, the effect is doubled when a target you've identified is affected by any control effects originating from you.】

[72 Transformations: Active Soul Skill. You can transform yourself and up to 5 other characters into any form, and you will not be detected by any anti-reconnaissance or anti-disguise effects below level 9. When transforming into a specific target, there will sometimes be special effects.]

[Phoenix Wing Purple Gold Crown: A natural soul weapon that greatly enhances the physical defense of both the martial soul and the resonator when equipped.]

The skills of a martial spirit are relatively simple.

Their strength is definitely not higher than that of professionals.

However, Lin Yi didn't feel that his three martial soul skills were weak at all...

The Great Celestial Technique is so shameless, it has 100% abnormal resistance.

Now, when I encounter someone like Pei Junxi who specializes in abnormal states, I'm always unintentionally affected by dozens of different disgusting abnormal states.

However, the Mind Monkey is completely immune to all abnormal states.

If other people are controlled, your martial spirit will not be controlled.

The effects of "Fiery Eyes" and "All-Knowing Eye" overlap somewhat.

However, it is not impossible for martial spirits and professionals to fight independently.

In the event of fighting individually, possessing this illusion-breaking skill is also crucial.

Then comes the Seventy-Two Transformations.

This is a disguise skill.

Lin Yi currently lacks this kind of skill, so this can be considered as making up for a shortcoming.

Then there are Horcruxes.

Many martial souls do not have innate soul weapons and need to be crafted separately.

Generally speaking, a naturally formed soul weapon is definitely much better than one that is made from scratch.

For example, the Phoenix Wing Purple Gold Crown that has just been unlocked not only increases the defense of the martial soul.

Lin Yi now discovered that, despite being a mage wearing cloth armor, his physical defense was comparable to that of some classes wearing plate armor.

"Tsk tsk..."

"More than ten thousand soul cores, yet your martial soul hasn't changed much." "It probably hasn't even been fully unsealed yet."

"The potential is limitless!"

"Did the old emperor secretly tell you to choose this one?"

Ji Yunli clicked his tongue in amazement.

Clearly, he had never seen such a unique martial spirit before.

"Stop talking nonsense," Cheng Xiao said calmly.

"The old emperor treats everyone equally."

"Do you also want to change your martial soul?"

Ji Yunli shook his head immediately: "No, I won't trade it even if you kill me!"

"It's so rare to find a martial soul that suits my temperament so well."

Lin Yi's heart stirred.

He opened his mouth and asked, "Two seniors."

"In the Sky Tower, the ancient human race basically all possessed several or even seven or eight divine runes."

"This means that one can have more than one Martial Soul."

"But it seems like you only have one Martial Soul each. Is there a reason for that?"

Cheng Xiao and Ji Yunli were both taken aback.

In the end, Ji Yunli slapped his forehead.

"Haha, you asked the same question I did back then."

"If it were a rich kid like him, he probably wouldn't even ask this question. It's only people like you and me who rose from humble beginnings who would have doubts."

"Let me answer your question."

"It's not that we don't want to acquire a second martial soul or even more martial souls."

"It's not that our souls and spirits can't bear it."

"But there's another special reason..."

Have you ever heard of karma?

"According to those guys from the [Reincarnation] faction, all living beings in a world are constantly generating karma."

"But the total karma that can contain a world has an upper limit."

"The phenomenon of the survival of the fittest in nature, where big fish eat small fish, can be viewed from a broader perspective as a result of the will of the entire world balancing overall karma."

"The essence of martial spirits and divine runes is to seal those powerful beings who are not subject to reincarnation within one's own body and use them for one's own benefit."

"In a sense, as long as you have a martial spirit, you will bear double the karma."

Lin Yi listened.

I feel like I understand now.

But I didn't fully understand it.

Cheng Xiao also spoke up.

Let me put it in a way that's easier for you to understand.

"Because the world itself desires balance, and karma has an upper limit. If you have more martial spirits, the karma of a single individual will far exceed what he should be able to bear."

"Once the karma of some beings exceeds what they should bear, they will be rejected and backfired by the entire plane."

"The specific manifestation of this is bad luck."

"What you ask for will not come to pass."

"What you fear will come to pass!"

"If the karma is too high."

"You might even get killed by a meteorite falling from the sky if you go outside."

"Because the whole world is trying to get rid of you, this troublesome person who takes up a lot of karma."

Lin Yi finally understood.

It seems that it's not that these big shots don't want to have more martial souls.

Rather, they don't want to bear too much karma, which would cause them to become unlucky and have everything go wrong.

"Bro, what's the effect of that unique achievement you got before? Can you tell me about it?"

Ji Yunli rubbed his hands together.

Clearly, this problem had been weighing on his mind for a long time.

I just took the initiative to explain the knowledge related to karma to Lin Yi.

Lin Yi was taken aback.

"Uh, I haven't even seen it myself yet..."

This is not the only achievement.

Lin Yi hadn't even had a chance to look at the "Unbreakable Alliance" achievement he got from killing Mitsui, nor the effects of the two law-based items, the Dark Heart and the Hand of Nothingness!
