[Summary of the whole book]

The body will eventually decay, only the soul is immortal.

[Reading Requirements] None

You have obtained this book using harmless deconstruction, and the system has stripped all reading requirements.

[Knowledge in the Book]

Common knowledge of soul-stealing magic, including an introduction to common soul-stealing magic.

Two incomplete spell blueprints: Soul Extraction Technique, Soul Shaping Technique.

“‘Soul Extraction Technique’ and ‘Soul Shaping Technique’? I think I’ve seen these two spells somewhere before.”

Noland Lee searched his mind and found the panel information about the Soul Shaping Wizard, Hickman Arlington.

In the ‘Skills’ column, the words “Soul Extraction Technique (Level 4)” and “Soul Shaping Technique (Level 3)” were clearly written.

“It seems that the Lecturer Professor known as ‘Soul Shaper’ must have obtained some inheritance related to the Soul-stealing Overlord.”

Noland Lee pondered while opening the two spell blueprints.

He consumed a dozen or so Energy Points to learn these two spells.

Glancing at the words on the magic panel, Noland Lee felt somewhat helpless.

Harmless Deconstruction can remove many casting restrictions, which is a good thing.

But the completion of these two spell blueprints is too low…

The completion of ‘Soul Extraction Technique’ is 10%. The casting effect is similar to what is recorded on Hickman Arlington’s panel information, and the difference mainly lies in the casting time.

‘Soul Extraction Technique’ is a continuous spell that requires maintaining the casting action for a long time.

When the duration of the spell reaches a certain level, the soul can be extracted from the target.

Hickman Arlington can maintain the casting for about 30 minutes and completely extract the enemy’s soul.

For the ‘Soul Extraction Technique’ that Noland got, it takes up to 30 hours.

Yes, 30 hours.

The stronger the binding force of the soul in the target’s body, the longer the casting time takes.

Compared to the 100% complete ‘Soul Extraction Technique’, Noland Lee’s ‘Soul Extraction Technique’ has a much longer casting time. But the good news is that the casting effect has not been discounted. When the casting time reaches 30 hours, he will definitely be able to extract the other’s soul from their body. This is better than the Mental Magic obtained by Harmless Deconstruction.

Let’s take a look at the newly acquired ‘Soul Shaping Technique’.

Hickman Arlington’s ‘Soul Shaping Technique’ can change the target’s soul into an ethereal being.

Noland Lee’s ‘Soul Shaping Technique’ can also do that, but it will reduce the level of the finished product by at least 90%.

For example, a Level 100 Wizard’s soul, after being turned into an ethereal being by Noland Lee, would have its level decreased by at least 90 levels.

Noland’s level just has the drawback of reducing the target’s level, and it has the same casting duration as Hickman Arlington’s ‘Soul Shaping Technique’. Both of them can completely transform the target’s soul into an ethereal being after maintaining for 30 minutes.

“I really didn’t expect to get these two spells from the Soul-stealing Scythe… But thinking about it, if you want to seize the soul, you must have soul extraction. And what is the spell for extracting the soul if not the ‘Soul Extraction Technique’…”

Noland Lee shook his head and sighed.

He brought up the Scholarly Skill ‘Soul Sculpting Magic,’ and took a look at the ‘Soul Shaping Tattoo’ recorded in it.

The ‘Soul Shaping Technique’ for transforming the soul into an ethereal being requires the use of a Soul Shaping Tattoo.

Soul Shaping Tattoos are like casting molds, and the soul is like molten metal. Putting the soul into a Soul Shaping Tattoo to transform it into an ethereal being is akin to pouring liquid metal into a mold to cool and set.

Although the name “tattoo” is attached to the Soul Shaping Tattoo, it does not necessarily have to be tattooed on the body to work. It is essentially a magic rune for holding ethereal beings. Conventional magic runes cannot be engraved on the body. Only tattoo-type magic runes have the “skin-friendly” feature.

Noland Lee can carve the Soul Shaping Tattoo on wood, stone seats, wellheads, and other places, and it can still transform souls and seal ethereal beings.

Noland Lee landed on the ground in Black City.

After mulling it over, he removed all the soul fragments at the scene.

There’s no need to worry about arousing the suspicion of the two combat wizards. With so many Black City outlaws escaping, it’s normal for them to come back and snatch away the soul fragments.

After Noland Lee collected all the soul fragments, the Soul Strength on the panel increased to 5989 points.

The unexpected windfall of more than two thousand soul strength points left Noland Lee a little bit shocked.

He suppressed the joy in his heart and hid in a warehouse filled with piles of universal metal powder.

He took out an almost transparent crystal and looked at it in his palm.

“Your luck is still good, Nicolette. Ever since I arrived here, I’ve developed a good habit of deconstructing everything I see. Now I can provide a one-stop magic service to turn you into an ethereal being.”

The crystal in Noland Lee’s hand is the ‘Soul Retreat Crystal’.

The blueprint for making this item was obtained when Noland Lee had the Cavern Stalkers destroy Pim’s crystal.

Noland had found time to make this item in the Magic Laboratory of Elemental Judgement. He originally thought it would become his own lifesaver, but he never expected Nicolette to be the first to enjoy it.

Now he only needs to take out the rune staff, carve the Soul Shaping Tattoo on the crystal, and the whole job will be basically done.
