Complete Martial Arts Attributes - Chapter 3185

Chapter 3121 What did the Demon Brain Clan do on the battlefield? They ate brains! They concealed their souls!

Wang Teng quickly absorbed the Nightmare Clan’s combat techniques, feeling he hadn’t exerted much effort at all.

It was too easy!

Even the fusion of the last technique was completed automatically.

Unlike some previous techniques, which he had to comprehend and improve himself.

“Nightmare Clan!”

Wang Teng muttered, a meaningful smile playing on his lips.

He would definitely have a good exchange with this dark race in the future.

He hadn’t taken Nicola, the Nightmare Clan member he encountered in the Dark World, seriously.

Now, however, she was someone he couldn’t ignore.

This time, at least two Nightmare Clan Demon Lord-level beings appeared on the battlefield, posing a significant threat.

He also needed to study the Nightmare Clan’s special combat techniques carefully.

After all, from what he could see, their abilities seemed to target the mind, making them extremely difficult to deal with and not to be underestimated.

“Next up is… the Brain Demon Clan!!!”

Wang Teng looked at the next dark race’s combat technique, a sudden realization striking him.

The Brain Demon Clan!

He suddenly remembered that he hadn’t seen any Brain Demons on the battlefield before.

This… something was wrong!

Something very wrong!

The Demon Brain Clan is a major force among the many dark races; how could they not have appeared?

Moreover, he has now gained insights into their combat techniques.

This further confirms their presence.

However, this only makes Wang Teng more uneasy.

The Demon Brain Clan is too well-hidden, causing him some suspicion.

“What did the Demon Brain Clan do on the battlefield?”

A huge question immediately arose in Wang Teng’s mind, preventing him from relaxing. The Demon Brain

Clan is very strange; they can seize the bodies of other races and hide.

If a powerful member of the Demon Brain Clan were to take advantage of the chaos and control a powerful figure from the Light Universe, the consequences… are unimaginable.

This isn’t alarmist; it’s a highly likely scenario.

Why did the Mechanical Race’s True God control everyone on this Mechanical Race god-level spaceship? It was precisely because of these concerns.

Even compared to the powerful figures on the spaceship being corrupted by darkness, being controlled by the Demon Brain Clan might be even more serious.

After all, the Demon Brain Clan’s concealment is extremely deep; under normal circumstances, they are impossible to detect.

Such a situation has occurred in the history of the Light Universe.

Some members of the Demon Brain Clan had been lurking for a long time, even infiltrating the upper echelons of society before being discovered.

Therefore, the higher echelons of the Bright Universe were actually quite apprehensive about the Demon Brain Clan, and Wang Teng wasn’t the only one who thought so.

Unfortunately, Wang Teng couldn’t currently figure out what the Demon Brain Clan was really like, so he could only absorb and comprehend their combat techniques for now.

Perhaps he could learn something from them.

Inferring their actions through the methods they employed was entirely feasible.

Thinking of this, Wang Teng felt somewhat invigorated and immediately began absorbing and comprehending their techniques.

…

[Dark Demon Head] (Upper Demon Emperor Level): 5600/15000 (Mastery);

[Brain Eater] (Growth Type): 1800/5000 (Mastery);

[Soul Concealment] (Growth Type): 1200/5000 (Mastery);

[Soul Attachment] (Growth Type): 2100/5000 (Mastery);

[Dark Brain Attachment] (Growth Type): 12500/50000 (Fifth Tier);

…

“Five combat skills!”

Wang Teng was shocked. He hadn’t expected the Demon Brain Clan to drop five combat skill attribute insights.

More than the previous Nightmare Clan.

He immediately began absorbing these combat skill insights, and corresponding insight images appeared in his mind.

An extremely blurry light and shadow slowly appeared, completely indistinct.

Wang Teng frowned. This Demon Brain Clan was indeed strange; even the insight images couldn’t reveal its appearance.

However, that light and shadow shouldn’t be its true form.

The Demon Brain Clan’s true form was just a brain.

Suddenly, a bizarre scene appeared in the comprehension image.

Within the blurry light and shadow, the shape of a brain gradually emerged, flashing with black light, lifelike.

“So it directly manifested the true form of the Demon Brain Clan!”

Wang Teng realized.

At the same time, he felt a little regretful.

If he could have seen the blurry light and shadow clearly, he might have been able to find the bodies of the Light Universe warriors controlled by those Demon Brain Clan beings.

Too considerate isn’t good either!

Indeed, in Wang Teng’s opinion, this system was too considerate, directly manifesting the true form, which prevented him from seeing what he wanted to see.

System Daddy: Is it my fault?

Wang Teng sighed regretfully and focused on absorbing the comprehension of this Demon Brain Clan combat technique.

As the phantom of the Demon Brain Clan gradually emerged, streams of dark primal force spread out.

Then, dark power gathered in the void, eventually condensing into a bizarre head.

That head belonged to some unknown dark race; none of the dark races Wang Teng had encountered looked like it.

It had a very abstract feel to it!

Ambiguous yet unsettling!

He was suspicious, staring intently at the image in his mind.

What on earth was this thing?

From the image, the head was enormous, incredibly grotesque, with black holes for both its eye sockets and mouth.

However, two ghostly flames flickered within its eye sockets, making it even more eerie.

“It seems somewhat similar to the methods of the Bone Spirit Clan!”

“One is a skull, the other a head!”

Wang Teng suddenly realized something, his eyes showing a strange expression.

If the combat techniques of these two dark races were combined, wouldn’t they be able to form a complete head?

Hmm, this seems quite promising!

Wang Teng stroked his chin, his mind swirling with various wild ideas.

Unfortunately, he hadn’t acquired any genuine head-based combat techniques from the Bone Spirit Clan; they were mostly just condensed head phantoms.

Combat techniques and phantoms were different.

Phantoms were merely a manifestation of the Bone Spirit Clan’s power.

Wang Teng shook his head, ceasing his thoughts.

Soon, he had completely absorbed the insights from this Demon Brain Clan combat technique, and various understandings arose within him.

“It actually attacks with the head!”

Wang Teng’s expression was subtle, his eyes twitching slightly.

To put it bluntly, it was biting others with the mouth.

This looked utterly bizarre! It

had no class whatsoever.

At first, when he saw that strange, dark head, he thought the combat technique was quite impressive, but this was it?

Biting people with a head?

How shameful!

Wang Teng felt he couldn’t bear the humiliation. The Demon Brain Clan was truly pathetic, creating such a combat technique.

Even though this combat technique was at the Upper Demon Emperor level.

Even though his mastery of it had reached the Great Perfection level.

But he still had some reservations.

The insights into the second combat technique of the Brain Demon race surged forth, sending a chill down Wang Teng’s spine.

“This combat technique… it’s a bit bizarre!”

His eyes narrowed instantly, and he took a deep breath to calm himself.

In the scene of his comprehension, a figure of the Brain Demon race appeared, devouring… the brains of other beings!

Not all at once, but slowly, bit by bit!

The being devoured might not even notice.

How could this not be terrifying?

Even though Wang Teng saw this scene during his comprehension, he was still greatly shocked.

He felt a slight itch in his brain.

He couldn’t connect with this insight!

Really, he couldn’t connect with it at all!

Although the insights gained through absorbing attributes felt like he had personally cultivated them, this time he truly couldn’t empathize. It

was too disgusting!

He was a normal person, not a cannibal… no, more accurately, a brain-eating demon!

So how could he possibly empathize with this kind of combat technique insight?

Only a psychopath could calmly absorb such insights.

He couldn’t.

Despite often being called a pervert, he wasn’t really that kind of pervert.

Wang Teng detached his mind, observing everything from the sidelines.

There are two ways to absorb insights:

one is immersion,

the other is a god-like perspective.

He was currently absorbing insights in the second way, so he didn’t need to experience that perverted feeling.

Even so, his expression was very unpleasant; he only wanted to absorb the insights from this combat technique as quickly as possible.

He felt he probably wouldn’t use this technique again.

As a normal person, he didn’t think he would devour the brains of other beings—that was too bizarre and disgusting.

Using this kind of technique too much would change his mindset, wouldn’t it?

Some things are better left unexperienced.

Because once you start, there will be a second, even a third, a fourth… and eventually countless times!

Wang Teng had heard that some martial artists initially thought they wouldn’t use those strange combat techniques, but once they did, over time, they couldn’t control themselves anymore.

To some extent, those unorthodox yet extremely powerful combat techniques are actually very addictive.

The current [Brain Devouring] combat technique belongs to that type. After

absorbing the insights, Wang Teng completely understood that this combat technique would be absolutely addictive.

It devours the brains of other beings not only to defeat enemies, but also to gain their insights.

That’s right!

It’s all about gaining their insights!

When Wang Teng first obtained the Demon Brain Clan’s combat technique [Soul Attachment], he knew that the Demon Brain Clan possessed this ability.

Now he has encountered another combat technique with the same ability!

It’s no exaggeration to say that the Demon Brain Clan’s innate talent lies in this.

“Damn it, this is too bizarre!”

Wang Teng couldn’t help but want to curse.

Using brain devouring to gain the insights of others is probably the most bizarre type among the combat techniques of many dark races.

“It’s also a growth-type combat technique!”

Wang Teng’s eyes were solemn, which meant that [Brain Devouring] had considerable potential, comparable to [Soul Attachment].

[Soul Attachment] involves the Demon Brain Clan attaching itself to the brain of another being, thereby taking its place.

[Brain Consumption] involves directly consuming the brain, which also offers a chance to gain insights.

Combining the two methods yields even better results.

Wang Teng has now mastered the [Brain Consumption] combat technique to an advanced level, considered extremely high-ranking.

This should be a cause for celebration, but the thought of the Dark Race of the Demon Brain Clan’s equally profound understanding of this technique makes him uneasy.

Can other warriors from the Bright Universe withstand this technique?

Probably not!

Wang Teng sighed inwardly, deciding to thoroughly study this technique in the future to see if he could find a way to counter it.

For now, it’s best to leave it at that.

Without sufficient understanding, finding a solution is too difficult.

At this moment, the third Demon Brain Clan combat technique’s insight appeared, startling Wang Teng once again.

“Soul Concealment!”

he murmured, quickly looking into the insight.

He saw the Demon Brain Clan’s light and shadow gradually disappearing from the insight image, as if they had vanished.

Strange runes seemed to appear on the eerie demonic brain, merging with it like patterns, but quickly vanishing along with it. It

was almost instantaneous.

Fortunately, Wang Teng was absorbing insights; otherwise, he might not have been able to see it clearly.

At this moment, the insights gained from those runes were integrated into Wang Teng’s memory, allowing him to fully understand.

“This is actually an insight into the [Ancient Dark Runes]!”

Wang Teng was somewhat surprised.

He hadn’t expected that the insights into the [Soul Concealment] combat technique would contain insights into the [Ancient Dark Runes].

Moreover, this part of the [Ancient Dark Runes] was clearly an insight he had never obtained before.

Concealment!

This was a rune related to concealment!

Wang Teng had previously obtained [Ancient Dark Runes] related to concealment, which allowed him to hide himself.

However, compared to the [Ancient Dark Runes] he obtained this time, the previous concealment runes seemed rather superficial.

Of course, this didn’t mean that the concealment function of the [Ancient Dark Runes] he had obtained before was weak.

If it were in the Bright Universe, most martial artists probably wouldn’t be able to detect it.

However, the power of darkness might be detectable.

This sounds contradictory!

Actually, they are two different things.

Being able to detect the power of darkness doesn’t necessarily mean you can find the person hiding within it.

Otherwise, why would the power of darkness be so adept at concealment?

Now, with this new understanding of the hidden runes, Wang Teng felt his grasp of the concealment abilities of the [Ancient Dark Rune] had deepened considerably.

“This [Soul Concealment] combat technique not only conceals one’s own power, but more importantly, it conceals the soul!”

The contents of his understanding flashed through Wang Teng’s mind, and he suddenly felt a surge of surprise.

He had been completely absorbed in the concealment abilities of the [Ancient Dark Rune] and hadn’t noticed that the [Soul Concealment] combat technique itself was the most powerful. It

could even conceal the soul—how amazing was that?

This combat technique was used by the Demon Brain Clan to conceal themselves.

“Wait!”

Wang Teng’s expression immediately turned serious.

Previously, the Demon Brain Clan used [Soul Possession] to control other beings and hide themselves within their bodies, which was already difficult to detect.

Now, with the addition of this [Soul Concealment] skill, wouldn’t it be even more undetectable?

This was a growth-type combat technique, with excellent effects.

Sure enough, he knew these Demon Brain Clan dark beings were going to cause trouble.

They’ve finally shown their tails!

A cold glint flashed in Wang Teng’s eyes. Now that he had obtained the [Soul Concealment] combat skill, finding those hidden Dark Species of the Demon Brain Clan shouldn’t be too difficult.

“A bunch of rats in the gutter, I’ll drag you all out sooner or later,” Wang Teng thought coldly. (End of Chapter)
