Bab 128: Rewards
[Ding! Congratulations to the host for achieving a phase victory—Fallen Leaf King's Tomb.]
[Reward: Soul Technique 'Soul Seizure'.]
[Reward: Soul Technique 'Dream Entering'.]
[Reward: 1000 Heaven Defying Points.]
The system's cold, emotionless voice suddenly startled Mo Fan!
The system had not appeared for a long time, and sometimes Mo Fan almost forgot he had a golden finger.
"System, do you not issue tasks anymore? Just rewards directly?" Mo Fan couldn't help but be puzzled.
Usually, the system would trigger tasks at key moments, announcing rewards and punishments, and guiding him on what to do. This time, it awarded him without even issuing a task.
[The host is the author of this book and should know what needs to be done. From now on, this system will no longer actively trigger ordinary tasks. Any action that successfully changes the original plot development will be rewarded based on the degree of change.]
Mo Fan was speechless. He could almost hear a hint of sarcasm in the system's cold, emotionless electronic voice!
What did it mean by 'should know what needs to be done'?
It meant that he had to disrupt any events in the original work that would help Lin Yang rise, and only then would he be rewarded?
Usually, the host gets to sit back and relax, but it seemed like this system wanted to take it easy too.
'This is basically like you just do the work, and I decide whether to reward you or not!'
Mo Fan asked again, "What about punishments? Does that mean there are no more punishments?"
From the system's words, it seemed to only mention rewards. Mo Fan keenly caught this point. If there were no more punishments, that would be wonderful.
[The host is overthinking. Punishments still exist and will depend on the specific situation. However, the host can use Heaven Defying Points to offset the punishments.]
'Oh, so that's how it is.'
Now Mo Fan understood. Doing tasks regularly and accumulating Heaven Defying Points not only helped in developing the family but also could be used to offset system punishments in critical moments.
Thinking this way, Mo Fan felt a bit more balanced. If the system wanted to take it easy, as long as it provided useful things, he wouldn't mind.
Mo Fan took out the rewards given by the system this time and looked at the names: 'Soul Seizure' and 'Dream Entering.'
Both had the prefix 'Soul Technique,' indicating they were for his use.
Previous rewards were mostly for Mo Qingkuang. Mo Fan knew that a soul body had almost no room for action, which made him quite unhappy.
Now, with two consecutive rewards, Mo Fan felt a bit more balanced.
Seeing the golden 'Soul Seizure,' just from the name, Mo Fan was excited enough to jump up.
What does Soul Seizure mean?
As a former web novelist, Mo Fan knew very well that this was the method those who crossed over to another world used to obtain a body.
Soul Seizure had high requirements and a very low success rate. Without the protection of the Heavenly Dao, out of a hundred people, 99 might die.
Now that Mo Fan had the Soul Technique Soul Seizure, did it mean the time to become a person again was not far off?
He couldn't wait to press Soul Seizure into a beam of golden light and learn it. However, he was left in a daze.
'Soul Seizure' effects were just as Mo Fan imagined.
But the requirements for its use were a bit harsh.
First, the soul strength of the possessor must reach a certain level.
With Mo Fan's current soul strength, it was far from sufficient. Even with continuous enhancement through the Soul Nourishing Technique, it would take at least several years.
In the short term, it was definitely not possible.
Second, the requirement was even harsher. It required the person being possessed to be non-resistant, to open their mind, and voluntarily give up control of their body!
'What the hell!'
Mo Fan saw this condition and wished he could smash the intangible system to pieces!
Who in their right mind, living well, would willingly die just to let someone else take over their life?
This 'Soul Seizure' skill wouldn't even work on someone like Mo Qingkuang, who trusted Mo Fan completely.
"System, system! What's the use of this Soul Seizure skill? Are you telling me I should use this to possess someone?" Mo Fan questioned.
[This system only provides items, not explanations. Please explore the uses yourself.]
The system's cold, emotionless electronic voice responded.
Mo Fan was speechless, knowing this broken thing would never handle the aftermath!
He had no choice but to set 'Soul Seizure' aside and look at Dream Entering.
[Dream Entering: Soul Technique, Divine Grade.]
[Allows entering the dream of a designated target to communicate with them.]
[Requirement: The target's soul strength must not be higher than the user's.]
Looking at the Dream Entering skill, Mo Fan's mood improved somewhat.
All this time, he could only convey his intentions through Mo Qingkuang, which had made him quite worried.
After all, Mo Qingkuang was young and not very powerful. His words often failed to carry significant weight.
For instance, when revealing Lin Yang's strength to Zheng Tao during the martial examination or exposing Prime Minister Wang as a traitor to Dean Hua at the Lu Ming Banquet.
These warnings couldn't gain immediate trust, especially with the Empress. To her, Mo Qingkuang was just a child babbling, and his words had little weight.
Now, with the Dream Entering skill, Mo Fan could personally communicate with high-level figures in the Tianxuan Empire in their dreams without easily revealing his presence.
It's just a dream. How suspicious could they get? When they woke up, they wouldn't find any trace of him!
Moreover, with his past reputation as a War Emperor, Zheng Tao at least held him in high regard. His words would be more credible than Mo Qingkuang's.
By subtly guiding these figures in their dreams, they could prepare better in advance.
Even if Tianxuan eventually falls, it wouldn't be as disastrous as the original storyline!
And most importantly, Mo Fan now had a chance to enter the Empress's dreams to build a relationship.
Mo Fan had always been troubled about how to connect with the Empress before having a physical body, or how to make her aware of his existence.
Besides his personal interest in the Empress, she was the strongest and the supreme ruler of the Tianxuan Empire.
Her words were the rules of the Tianxuan Empire. Influencing her will mean influencing the direction of the Tianxuan Empire's development.
The arrival of this Dream Entering soul technique was like a pillow when feeling sleepy, solving Mo Fan's dilemma.
"At least there's something useful!" Mo Fan finally breathed a sigh of relief and learned Dream Entering by absorbing it into a golden light.
As for the Heaven Defying Points, Mo Fan checked them and found they hadn't reached any special threshold, thus not activating any new auras.
Turning to Mo Qingkuang, who was still celebrating his newfound abilities, Mo Fan said calmly, "Let's go. It's time to leave."
