Second Soul Skill Void Piercing

For every city, the importance of the Spirit Transfer Pagoda was beyond question.

The Donghai Spirit Transfer Pagoda was likewise built in the most prosperous central district of Eastsea City. After the Soul Guidance Car drove smoothly for twenty minutes, it arrived at the main entrance of the Spirit Transfer Pagoda. Given the scale of the Donghai Spirit Transfer Pagoda, the steps at the main entrance alone numbered in the dozens, and their width reached an astonishing one hundred meters. Each step was one complete piece, built entirely from marble.

Every year, when Donghai Academy was about to start school and recruit new students, it was often the busiest period for the Donghai Spirit Transfer Pagoda.

That was because the hard requirement for entering an Intermediate Soul Master Academy to study was obtaining a Soul Spirit and advancing to become a soul master. Ten years old counted as a special watershed. If one broke through to the soul master realm before the age of ten, that proved their talent was passable, that they possessed a certain degree of potential, and they could directly enter the Donghai Academy Intermediate Division without taking an exam. But if the age at which they became a soul master exceeded ten, then they would need to undergo a series of assessments.

So as long as their child had that ability, parents would do everything in their power to buy them a suitable Soul Spirit at the Donghai Spirit Transfer Pagoda, so that they could enter Donghai Academy to study afterward, carrying the hopes of the whole family.

According to the regulations of the Sun Moon Federation, intermediate academies were compulsory education and did not charge any fees. Even food and lodging were free. This also greatly eased the pressure on those commoner families.

On the steps leading into the Donghai Spirit Transfer Pagoda, three-person families who had come to buy Soul Spirits could be seen everywhere, coming and going. Before entering the Spirit Transfer Pagoda, they were full of excitement and anticipation; when they walked out, their faces were wreathed in smiles, unable to contain their joy.

Yu Nanyuan moved through the crowd alone, a gentle smile resting at the corners of his mouth, yet he seemed somehow out of place among these people. He entered the first-floor hall of the Donghai Spirit Transfer Pagoda with practiced ease, then took the Soul Guidance Elevator deep underground.

"Bzz, bzz, bzz—"

The metal elevator doors opened to the left and right. Yu Nanyuan walked slowly into a circular room. The room's metal structure had a strong futuristic feel, especially the huge soul guidance LCD Screen hanging on the wall.

There were a total of five Spirit Transfer Pagoda staff members in the room.

Yu Zhen knew that with Yu Nanyuan's Talent, he would absolutely not be bound to a remote place like Eastsea City in the future. After that, he had not deliberately concealed information about Yu Nanyuan's martial soul and talent. Moreover, Yu Nanyuan trained in the Spirit Ascension Platform for long periods of time, so it was impossible to keep it hidden forever.

The Spirit Transfer Pagoda staff greeted Yu Nanyuan with very friendly attitudes. There was no particular reason for it, except that they had all graduated from Donghai Academy. Holding the positions of both Donghai Academy's dean and president of the Mecha Master Association, Yu Zhen's influence in Eastsea City could be described as deeply rooted.

"Nanyuan, get ready to start."

"Sorry to trouble you, Yan Ge." Yu Nanyuan smiled faintly, then lay down inside the metal cabinet to the side.

The cold touch of metal was especially clear. The suction-cup-shaped instruments automatically pressed into place, and the light before his eyes could not help but dim.

Before long, Yu Nanyuan's entire body trembled, and his consciousness regained clarity once again. The feeling of solid ground came from beneath his feet. The scenery around him shifted, and he was now in the middle of a dense forest. From deep within the quiet forest came the faint sounds of insects and birds. That feeling, brimming with the aura of life, relaxed the mind considerably.

According to the Spirit Transfer Pagoda's requirements, mechas and Battle Armor could not be used after entering the Spirit Ascension Platform. As for Soul Tools and conventional weapons forged from rare metals, there were no clear restrictions.

However, Yu Nanyuan had no intention of using Soul Tools or weapons, because his own martial soul was the best weapon. He had previously made Soul Tools only to lay a certain foundation for making his own Battle Armor in the future. It did not mean he would truly rely on such external forces.

Under the gazes of the Spirit Transfer Pagoda staff outside, Yu Nanyuan suddenly did something that caught them completely off guard.

Brilliant bright silver light flashed, and Silver Chains shuttled through the void and emerged. Yu Nanyuan borrowed force from the tips of his toes on the chains stretching across the air. It was as if he were walking through the sky. Within a few breaths, he had risen dozens of meters into the air and was about to break through the thick, luxuriant canopy of branches and leaves in the forest.

The Spirit Transfer Pagoda staff member whom Yu Nanyuan called Yan Ge seemed to have guessed Yu Nanyuan's intention. His expression turned solemn, and he hurriedly reminded the other four beside him in a deep voice, "Be ready to rescue him at any time."

In a Soul Beast Forest, the dangers were definitely not limited to the interior of the forest. The sky was the same.

With a flash of silver light, Yu Nanyuan instantly shot out of the canopy. Looking out, what entered his eyes was an endless green ocean. It rose and fell continuously, with no end in sight. The closer it got to the depths of the forest, the larger and taller the canopies became, simply like small hills, exceptionally awe-inspiring.

Countless Silver Chains crisscrossed and interwove. He did not stop there. Instead, he continued borrowing force from the Void Chains, climbing even higher.

Right at that moment, sharp cries rang out one after another, piercing straight into the clouds.

Large azure birds rose from those enormous, towering canopies in the distance. Their wings folded in as they swept toward him at high speed.

The Azure Bird, a wind-attribute flying soul beast, could often be seen in the outer regions of Soul Beast Forests during the Ancient Era and the Primordial Era. Their own species was not considered powerful, but they possessed the trait of living in groups. Even soul beasts stronger than Azure Birds did not dare provoke such a flying soul beast tribe lightly.

Yu Nanyuan calmly withdrew his gaze, without the slightest trace of fear. That was because his target had been this flock of Azure Birds from the very beginning.

Every individual in this Azure Bird Tribe had at least a hundred years of cultivation. Coupled with their wind-attribute abilities, they arrived in the blink of an eye like azure afterimages. Dense Wind Blades fanned out from their wings, shooting toward Yu Nanyuan in alternating waves.

Yu Nanyuan looked down at the pursuing Azure Bird Tribe below, his expression indifferent as he raised his right hand high.

"Second Soul Skill, Void Piercing."

The magnificent purple Second Soul Ring shone. Countless Silver Chains pierced through the void and descended from the sky like divine punishment. The entire sky was completely dyed into a bright silver sea.

The effect attached to his First Soul Skill Void Dragon Locking Array was spatial imprisonment, while this Second Soul Skill Void Piercing possessed the terrifying Power of Spatial Cutting.

The slender wedges, like spearheads, flashed with dazzling silver light. Empowered by the Power of Spatial Cutting, they instantly crushed the dense Wind Blades fanned out by the Azure Bird Tribe.

Among the Seven Great Elements, darkness, light, and space were known as the three great higher elements. In terms of level, the Power of Spatial Cutting was innately far above the pure sharpness effect of the wind attribute.

"Pfft, pfft, pfft, pfft, pfft—"

The ending of this Azure Bird Tribe was already sealed. Their majestic bodies were pierced through one after another by the void-shuttling chains, and they turned into a sky full of bright yellow points of light, slowly drifting apart.

The world around Yu Nanyuan returned to peace once more, leaving only the crisp rhythm of the chains.
