Chapter 46: Lingyuan's Second Soul Skill (Part 1)

  Huo Yu Hao nodded slightly, with a faint golden light flickering in his eyes as he released his own Spiritual Soul. One white and one purple, two soul rings rose up from the ground at the same time.

  Shock once again appeared on the faces of Fan Yu, Zhou Wei and Wang Dong.

  A thousand years, and yet another thousand years. The second soul ring of Huo Yuhao's Spirit Eyes was also a thousand-year grade. What had he been doing for the past month?! Without even having an attack-type soul skill, he actually possessed another thousand-year soul ring technique - this was simply unthinkable!

  "Thousand-year soul ring? How can your body possibly withstand it?" Zhou Wei's face was filled with confusion, "If we say that the second martial soul, Ice Jade Scorpion, brought a suspicious soul ring, then what about this Spiritual Eye martial soul's thousand-year soul ring? Don't tell me you also got it by just sleeping for one night, or else I'll go to the north every day to sleep."

  Huò Yǔhào said somewhat awkwardly, "This isn't something you can get just by sleeping. I killed a soul beast and then discovered it was spiritual in nature, so I absorbed the soul ring. I didn't know at the time that it was a thousand-year-old soul beast. As for why I could withstand it, it seems I also had an extra piece of soul bone or something..."

  Twitching simultaneously appeared on the facial muscles of three people.

  Two Millennium Soul Rings plus a Soul Bone? Did Huo Yu Hao fall into the treasure trove this time?

  Fan Yu Dao: "Tell me carefully, what's going on?"

  Huo Yu Hao nodded solemnly and said, "I indeed had that piece of soul bone after sleeping, it seems to be related to the Ice Jade Scorpion, it's a Corpse Soul Bone. I discovered that if I inject my soul power into my spine, I can emit an extremely strong chill. However, it can only last for a very short time, and my soul power will be depleted. Later, after killing that soul beast, because I didn't know it was a thousand-year-level one, I directly started absorbing it. When I found out the soul ring floating out of its body was purple, it was already too late. As a result, I didn't suffer much pain and finished absorbing it. Is this because the soul bone enhanced my physical constitution?"

  Zhou Wei nodded. "It's possible. Get to the point, tell me how you killed that thousand-year-old soul beast. Even a three-ring student wouldn't be able to easily kill a thousand-year-old soul beast. You were only at the first ring back then."

  He Yuhao said, "The soul beast I encountered was very strange. When I first met it, it was a snow-white tiger that looked particularly powerful and not easy to mess with. I didn't have the heart to fight it, so I turned around and ran. After running out for quite a distance, I turned back to look and found that it hadn't chased after me either. It just looked at me a few times. At the time, I thought it was very strange because tiger-type soul beasts are known for their strong attacking nature, which teacher emphasized in class. So why didn't it attack? That's when I plucked up my courage and quietly went back to observe it. As a result, I discovered that the tiger was still looking at me but had no intention of taking action. Then, I tried using a long-range soul guide device to attack it once, who knew that the snow-white tiger's body suddenly became illusory for a moment? My attack missed. And then it charged towards me."

  "At that time, I thought to myself, 'I'm definitely done for, and I regret it.' I turned around and ran again. But the white tiger's speed was much faster than mine. In just a few strides, it caught up to me and pounced on me viciously. In the heat of the moment, I released that scorpion martial soul. Then I turned around and used my hand to block it. My body sank, and I was knocked to the ground. Because at the time, I thought I was already finished, so subconsciously, I used both hands to choke the white tiger's neck. The white tiger also attacked me, even releasing a spiritual impact. But I am a Lingzhu martial soul! Although its spiritual impact made me dizzy for a while, I didn't suffer any real harm. When I came to from its spiritual impact, I discovered that what I was choking wasn't the white tiger anymore, but had transformed into a large insect. Its body was over one meter long, entirely snow-white and crystal clear. Oh, right, like an especially large silkworm. After using that scorpion martial soul, I felt my power was particularly great, and it seemed like the large silkworm was strangled to death by me. At the time, I didn't think too much about it; my spiritual attribute wasn't good at finding soul beasts, so when I encountered one, I quickly absorbed it. And then I got this Thousand Year Soul Ring."

  Wang Dong said doubtfully: "What you're saying is too strange, how can it be a tiger one moment and a giant silkworm the next?"

  Huo Yu Hao gave a mysterious smile and said, "Originally I had the same idea as you. But after trying out the new soul technique I just obtained, I understood what's going on. Two teachers, take a look."

  As he spoke, the golden light in Huo Yu's eyes suddenly intensified, and the purple soul ring on his body burst out with dazzling brilliance. He quickly retreated a step back, came to Wang Dong's side, and then, Fan Yu and Zhou Wei were shocked to find that there were two Wang Dongs in front of them, but no Huo Yu Hao.

  Wang Dong turned his head to look at the "Wang Dong" beside him, and was suddenly shocked with his mouth agape, "Th-this is what skill?"

  The distorted halo on "Wang Dong" flickered slightly and turned back into Huo Yuhao. Next, Huo Yuhao revealed an even more shocking scene, the two soul rings on his body changed.

  The original white and purple instantly turned into two blood-red soul rings, filled with a terrifying aura. The oppressive force that appeared in an instant even caused Fan Yu and Zhou Wei to subconsciously release their own soul rings and quickly retreat.

  "Ten, ten million year soul ring?" Wang Dong exclaimed. His reaction was not as intense as the two teachers', and his fusion relationship with Huo Yuhao made him feel no threat existed.

  The light changed again, and two terrifying blood-colored soul rings changed once more. This time, they all turned white, a weak white, representing ten years of white.

  From 100,000 years to 10 years, the gap is really a bit big.

  "Haha, this is my brand new spiritual attribute skill, Thousand Year Soul Ring Technique - Simulation. Through mental fluctuations, I can distort space and simulate various forms with myself as the foundation. However, the simulated range cannot exceed a diameter of three meters in size. This simulation skill also brings me a special additional ability, which is to freely change the color of my soul ring. Although it doesn't have any attack power, if used well, its effect shouldn't be small."

  Yes, this is indeed Huo Yuhao's Spirit Eyes' second soul skill. The story he just told wasn't entirely fabricated; his process of obtaining the second soul ring was roughly the same as what he described. The only difference was that the Ice Worm he killed was found by Tang Ya, and it was also Tang Ya who helped him see through the illusion created by the Ice Worm's mimicry.

  The most familiar thing to Tian Meng Bing Xian is undoubtedly his own race! This ability to simulate seems harmless, but it's actually the best way for Bing Xian to protect himself. For Huo Yuhao now, this skill is especially important. With the existence of simulation, he can change the color of his soul ring at will, so he doesn't have to worry about his Ice Emperor Scorpion martial soul's first soul ring being exposed. This is also why when the Ice Emperor Scorpion martial soul appeared earlier, that single soul ring was purple.

  "Good, good imitation." Fan Yu's eyes lit up almost instantly. As a powerful Soul Guide Master, he immediately thought of some wonderful uses for this skill in the field of Soul Guidance. More importantly, with this skill, it would also be possible to better hide Huo Yuhao's own abilities!

  At this time, Huo Yu Hao was also greatly shocked, because of the number of soul rings on his Fan Yue teacher's body.

  Two yellows, two purples, four blacks, eight in total, a full eight soul rings. This teacher of mine, who is only just over forty years old, is actually a powerful Soul Master. An eight-ringed Soul Master! With the teacher's age, it's not impossible to make a breakthrough to become a Title Douluo.

  Fan Yu's voice sank: "Yu Hao, the teacher needs an answer from you now. Choose to stay in the Wu Soul Department or publicly announce that you are the core disciple of the Hun Duo Department."

  Huò Yǔhào didn't hesitate, and knelt down again, respectfully saying: "One day as a teacher, a lifetime as a father. Teacher, I'm willing to continue learning about soul-guiding devices with you."

  "Alright, alright." Fan Yu was overjoyed and immediately helped Huo Yuhao up, "Good kid. Since that's the case, your teacher has to give you an order first. Now that you have a soul skill, you need to use it. From now on, whether it's during assessments or interacting with other students in the academy, you must simulate and make your soul ring turn white." As he said this, a sly smile actually appeared in his eyes.

  Zhou Wei said angrily: "Are you teaching him to pretend to be a pig and eat a tiger?"

  Fan Yu smiled slightly and said, "What's wrong with that? Those old guys from the Wu Soul Department are all more cunning than each other. If they knew the truth, wouldn't they snatch people away?"

  Zhou Wei said in doubt: "Didn't Dean Qian win the bet with Dean Yan? Is Dean Yan going to go back on his word?"

  Fan Yu sneered and said, "What's the big deal? When an excellent student is in front of you, what's a bet? Don't be fooled by Dean Yan's gentle appearance. For the sake of the Martial Soul Department's strength, he can turn black into white. You've always thought that Dean Qian was cunning, but compared to Dean Yan, he's still far behind. Be careful, or you'll become our enemy. Wang Dong, this matter must be kept secret. If not, it will be considered as going against the Soul Guidance Department. Now, both of you return to your dormitory and let me handle this matter. Yu Hao, at least until the third-year graduation, you still need to continue studying basic knowledge in the Martial Soul Department. Therefore, even if I announce that you have become a core disciple of the Soul Guidance Department, you must not be arrogant and continue to study diligently in the Martial Soul Department."

  "Yes, teacher."

  Finally passed, Huo Yu Hao couldn't help but let out a long sigh of relief in his heart.

  I see that most book friends have guessed roughly the same thing, not bad, keep going. Xiaoyu Hao's second soul skill is simulation, remember that.

  A new week, everyone's recommendation votes are still very powerful. If we rush to first place, next Monday we'll have four updates!

  If you think Lao San's writing is not bad, then cast your precious monthly votes. You can guess again what the four soul techniques that Bing Di brought to Xiao Yu Hao are. Hehe.
