Chapter 200 - Triggered! Hidden Mission
After mastering Soul Amplification, Lu Ran had other things to do besides researching soul cuisine. Now he could use Soul Amplification to strengthen Sudden Death King and Captain Doofus every day.
Lu Ran figured out that using Soul Amplification on Sudden Death King would make its soul gradually resemble that of a dragon. This was crucial, as it would allow it to undergo a more flawless dragonification during its next evolution.
On the other hand, strengthening Captain Doofus through the use of Soul Amplification would enhance its comprehension. After Lu Ran mastered Soul Sword Intent, he tried to teach Captain Doofus this intent for several days using Super Beast Mimicry, but it had failed to comprehend it.
Even though Captain Doofus possessed considerable talents in swordsmanship and comprehension, learning this skill was still not easy. However, within just two days of combining Soul Amplification with the effects of the Soul Cleansing Fruit, Captain Doofus managed to master Soul Sword Intent.
Of course, their respective sword intents had slight differences. Lu Ran’s Sword Intent was called Soul Sword Intent, whereas Captain Doofus’ was named Soul-Cutting Sword Intent.
Without much deliberation, Lu Ran quickly understood the situation. His Soul Sword Intent was something unique to him, born from combining his telepathy with his will in swordsmanship, and thus was unsuitable for Captain Doofus.
It was just like how Sudden Death King was suited for Dragon Intent, but Captain Doofus, limited by its species lineage, couldn’t possibly learn it. Instead, it had to forge a separate path and master Dragon-Slaying Sword Intent.
Similarly, drawing upon Lu Ran’s experience and insights, Captain Doofus had learned a new type of sword intent that specialized in soul damage. At first glance, this seemed unfortunate.
After all, Lu Ran’s Soul Sword Intent could precisely detect the emotions and consciousness of enemies, severing them with a single slash. In contrast, Captain Doofus’ Soul-Cutting Sword Intent deviated towards countering souls and lacked fine control.
However, in reality, there was nothing to regret. The two intents unexpectedly complemented each other. By integrating the techniques from Soul-Cutting Sword Intent, Lu Ran further refined his Soul Sword Intent. His soul swordsmanship had finally advanced!
When striking souls, Lu Ran could now distinctly sense something different.
