Invincible Little School Doctor

Chapter 331: Chapter 330: Attempting Soul Travel

Although Master Tianxuan was unable to move, his ability to speak was completely unaffected.

”Ye Haochuan, you shall meet a wretched end! A wretched end!” Master Tianxuan cursed loudly, his eyes filled with resentful venom.

”If you must blame someone, blame yourself for being so naive, huh, followers of heretical ways, all of you deserve to be exterminated. Did you think that I, Ye Haochuan, would spare any disciples from the Netherworld Sect?” Ye Haochuan sneered, and then sealed his mute acupoint.

Instantly, Master Tianxuan was unable to speak, only his eyes remained wide open, full of rage.

Ye Haochuan, however, couldn’t care less and immediately began to consider how to use others to accomplish his killing.

After all, a blood oath was not something to joke about; if he were to act personally, it could bring disaster upon himself, which would be an unworthy trade.

After thinking for a while, he came up with an idea. He picked up his cell phone and dialed He Dong, whom he had met once, preparing to offer him a huge favor and thus gain his alliance.

”Senior Brother Ye, what is it?” He Dong asked as he picked up the phone.

”Junior Brother He, where are you now?”

”I’m at school now.”

”I’ve captured a disciple of the Netherworld Sect here. Come over and I’ll let you have the credit for this capture.”

”A disciple of the Netherworld Sect?” He Dong was somewhat surprised, ”That’s a huge credit indeed, why don’t you kill him yourself and present him to the Sects for a handsome reward?”

”Here’s the thing...” Ye Haochuan said with a wry smile as he explained the whole situation in detail.

”So, you’ve made a blood oath...” After hesitating for a moment, He Dong agreed to come, ”Where are you then?”

Ye Haochuan immediately sent his phone’s location, and He Dong said, ”I’ll be right there.”

Feeling that it would take some time for He Dong to arrive, Ye Haochuan took advantage of this gap to study the Ghost Escape Technique.

It must be said that the Ghost Escape Technique was indeed mysterious. However, the principle was quite simple: it involved the soul leaving the body.

The only difficulty was maintaining the duration for which the soul could remain outside the body.

According to the verse Master Tianxuan had just provided, the method Netherworld Sect used to maintain the soul’s departure was indeed damaging to natural laws; it involved absorbing other people’s essence Qi to nourish one’s own soul, thereby maintaining the duration of the soul’s departure.

”That means, if I want to master the Ghost Escape Technique, I need to find a cultivation method that does not involve absorbing others’ essence Qi,” Ye Haochuan thought.

However, he soon shook his head, ”Such a method of cultivation is probably not easy to achieve; otherwise, the Great Powers of the Ancient Martial Arts Sects would have long allowed their disciples to research it.”

Feeling it was a bit tricky, Ye Haochuan thought to himself that he might as well give it a try; if successful, well and good, and if not, he wouldn’t lose anything.

With this in mind, he began to study the verse again, memorizing it in his heart, and soon had it by heart and fully understood the intent within the scripture.

”Damn it, let’s see if I can project my soul out of the body.”

Ye Haochuan then sat cross-legged on the living room sofa, slowly closed his eyes, recited the verse silently, and clasped his hands in front of his stomach, thumbs touching each other. Meanwhile, in his mind, he started to imagine his soul leaving his body.

It must be said that having inherited skills from the Holy Hand gave him an unparalleled advantage in cultivation experience compared to others.

So even though it was his first attempt at soul projection, he gradually entered the right state as he imagined.

In his imagination, he felt the originally chaotic sky suddenly clear up; the starry sky was dazzling, and the lights flickered. The endless rays of light poured onto his head, inching their way inside.

As the imaginary starlight entered his mind, it wasn’t long before Ye Haochuan suddenly felt a refreshing coolness throughout his body, as if bathed in the spring breeze; his pores opened, and he felt as if he were floating in bliss, utterly comfortable.

However, the pleasant sensation gradually faded, replaced instead by a pain as if his flesh were being torn apart.

Ye Haochuan quickly realized that this was the pain from tearing his soul from his body.

At the same time, he understood that the crucial moment had arrived.

If he could endure the pain, then soul projection would no longer be an obstacle in the future.

He gritted his teeth immediately.

Suddenly, he felt a sensation before him. There were evil spirits proliferating, Asuras and Yakshas, demons and monsters surrounding him from all sides, each seemingly ready to pounce on him, to devour and drink blood.

At that moment, it was as if he had fallen into hell, with shrill screams incessant in his ears.

Boom!

In his mind’s fantasy, the stars seemed to meld with his soul, and immediately afterward, Ye Haochuan felt himself floating, rising into the sky. In the vague emptiness, an irresistible force seemed to pull his soul out of his body.

And it was at this moment that he felt pains so intense and deep it almost caused him to faint.

No, this is too painful; it can’t go on like this.

In his subconscious, he quickly relaxed his mind and stopped forcibly trying to project his soul.

Just like that, slowly, he came back to consciousness, opened his eyes, and shockingly found himself drenched in sweat. Every muscle in his body ached, especially his head, which felt groggy and utterly devoid of energy.

”It seems that soul projection really isn’t something just anyone can endure. I’ll try again after advancing my cultivation.”

Having realized this, Ye Haochuan immediately resumed practicing the Longevity Technique to heal his body with Longevity True Qi.

So it went, and about twenty minutes later, his phone rang.

Picking it up, he saw it was from Chen Yushan.

Ye Haochuan paused. Since that misunderstanding the other night, he had been avoiding her out of spite, but now she was the one reaching out. Could it be that she wanted to mend their relationship?

Thinking this, his face broke into a smile as he pressed the answer button and chuckled, ”Hey, Yushan, what’s up?”

”Don’t call me Yushan, call me Officer Chen. Where are you right now?” The tone of Chen Yushan was very harsh over the phone.

So her temper has grown over these two days!

Ye Haochuan shook his head and said, ”What’s wrong?”

”What’s wrong? We just received a report that you killed Daoist Hefeng. Is this true?” Chen Yushan snorted.

Daoist Hefeng?

Ye Haochuan quickly realized what was happening, guessing this was the Daoist’s real name, and hurriedly explained, ”I didn’t kill Daoist Hefeng. He was possessed by a disciple of the Netherworld Sect after...”

”Save those ghost stories for someone else. Humph, before, when you killed someone, the station didn’t interfere much, but Daoist Hefeng is different. He’s a highly respected Daoist figure in Haishan. Now that you’ve killed him, let’s see how you talk your way out of this. You’re not going to claim he was a terrorist, are you?”

With that, there was a click, and Ye Haochuan only felt the phone disconnect.

Damn, now I’ve been framed.

Ye Haochuan was somewhat annoyed, but there was no need to panic. Now that Master Tianxuan was with him as a witness, this shouldn’t be a problem.

Just as he thought this, there was a knock on the door.

Ye Haochuan used his Perspective ability and saw that He Dong had already arrived. He immediately went to open the door and invited He Dong inside.

After exchanging a few pleasantries, Ye Haochuan said, ”Junior Brother He, you take this disciple of the Netherworld Sect and claim the achievement. I’ve run into a bit of trouble and need to step out.”

He Dong nodded, indicating no problem.

Ye Haochuan then hurriedly went downstairs, left the neighborhood, and headed towards the villa where Liu Weiguo was located.

Twenty minutes later, he arrived at the destination only to find that the villa was already cordoned off with police tape, guarded by the police, while around the perimeter, numerous other villa owners were spectating.

The Haishan police, who now recognized him, allowed him through.

Entering the villa, Ye Haochuan saw Chen Yushan in the living room, whom he hadn’t seen for several days, though her expression was somewhat hostile, her eyes flickering with anger.

”Officer Chen, it’s him, he killed Daoist Hefeng...”

Suddenly, sitting on the living room sofa, Liu Weiguo spoke up.
