Beneficial Union: Chasing A Rogue Wife

Chapter 523: Soul Manipulation Art

Most of the stone rooms that they could use were just bare. Torches were there for her mostly, and not for the generals. 

Chi Ma tribe has Soul Manipulation Art and that was what she was focusing on. Her being able to leave a very small part of her soul on her pawn was because of Art. In a sense Chi Ma was her master. 

The other general wanted to impart her, their special cultivation art, but she was mostly interested to Soul Manipulation Art. 

"Miss, try the first level again with my guidance now. Do not force yourself if you cannot do it." Chi Ma said seriously. 

After Chi Ma had said that, she immediately sat on the floor and crossed her legs to be on a meditative position. She then closed her eyes, removing anything else in her mind and just concentrates on Chi Ma's voice. "Do not resist the second part of the tribe's art that I will give you, as well." 

After he said that, she felt a tingle of warm current coming from the middle of her forehead that slowly reached her soul. It was not painful, but mostly just uncomfortable. Then, she was suddenly being enlightened by new spells and techniques on how to use them. 

This was Chi Ma transferring his knowledge about Soul Manipulation art to her. There were seven levels of learning with this Art, and she was only learning the second part at this time. 

It was only the second part, but she felt like there was a huge difference. With the new knowledge, it felt like she would have an easier time connecting to her scattered soul anywhere. 

With that in mind, she felt ecstatic, and her concentration wavered. 

"Focus on it. Do not lose the chance to learn it while I'm still here." He said sternly. 

She did not think much about it and just did what was told after calming her heart and mind. However, if she was not obedient and opened her eyes at that time, she would have noticed that the size of the blue soul flame was reduced by more than half. 

"We have distinguished multiple safe paths last time within the vortex. Despite that, Miss, you must not use the same path again in the meantime as it is very dangerous. You might also have a harder time passing thought using the same path. I will leave for now." She heard Chi Ma said. 

Slowly time passed. The new knowledge that was imparted to her was little by little being mastered. 

She did not notice that the more she does, the blue aura was getting visible surrounding her as if protecting.

Using the Soul Manipulation Art, it did not take long for her to feel that her consciousness was drifting out of her physical body and into familiar space within the burial tower. She then tried to look for a very thin thread using her spiritual sense to reach out to her missing soul. 

Unlike before, the pain that she had expected after her consciousness was so far away from her physical body was not much. It was still there, but it was bearable, and she could endure it. Though she did not know how long it would take to do so, but she hopes it was way longer than the last time. 

There were a lot of thin white threads connecting to her pawns. Just what Chi Ma had said, she chooses the path that was not yet familiar to her. As long as the thread was present, she was confident to be able to pass through the vortex. 

The thin white thread that she has chosen as the guide of her path eventually had connected her to a pawn. 

It seems that it was the same pawn as before as when she opened her eyes, the golden cage was still present. 

The room that she was bright, just like how it looked like the last time she had seen it. There was still the table next to the window with writing brush and stone ink. 

Her gaze then shifted towards a side of the room, there was a small table next to the large bed. The blanket on the bed was covering the bed and neatly arranged. There were no pillows on it. 

Though the room looked bare, it still somehow gives her the impression that the one staying there was not simple. 

Click. Click 

She tapped the golden cage using the crow's beak. There was no way she would continue only staying in a cage after all the effort to finally managing to manipulate a pawn like her physical body. 

Click. Clack. 

The crow continued to tap, and bit the cage to test it out and also make noise. Who knew how long she needed to do this. However, her plan to get attention was rewarded when she heard footsteps coming to her way. 

"Little master, I told you it is not a good idea to save it. You will get in trouble." She heard a childish voice speak. After that, a lad stood in front of the cage. 

It was the first time that she was able to see someone this close. Someone who was breathing and living unlike the generals that were just talking flames, Chi Ma, though occasionally uses illusion to look like he has a physical form, but that was just not always. 

For her, the lad was someone that she could easily label as pleasing to the eye despite the noticeable paleness on his face and lips that almost purple. The smile of delight on his face was also good to look at, especially when it reached his eyes that has silver irises.
