External Soul Bone, Master and Disciple Battle
Oscar was extremely satisfied with the gains from this trip, because it not only improved his strength incredibly quickly, but also gave him a powerful Soul Skill that was enough to assist Titled Douluo.
From a support perspective, Oscar's Soul Skill is top-notch.
Moreover, Oscar displayed his Fifth Spirit Ability almost without reservation in front of the Sky Azure Bull Python and the Titan Giant Ape, demonstrating his trust in the two beasts.
For the two beasts, this was undoubtedly the greatest trust placed in them. After all, Soul Master 'Spirit Abilities are never easily revealed, precisely to avoid being targeted by malicious individuals.
But now, the two beasts clearly felt Oscar's goodwill.
However, Oscar also had something to hide, and what he hid was what Oscar concealed when he was enveloped in a gray-black light shield at the last moment of absorbing the Soul Ring.
For Oscar, this Fifth Spirit Ability was indeed powerful enough, but what truly satisfied him was not just this Fifth Spirit Ability.
When he was enveloped in a gray-black light shield, Oscar's process of absorbing the Soul Ring had already changed slightly.
At that time, Oscar felt a great pain in his spine, as if something was forcibly integrated into it. However, under the gray-black light shield that was enough to block the detection of Titled Douluo, even Gai Yue did not notice that Oscar, who was absorbing his Fifth Spirit Ring, had a pair of black wings on his back.
In addition to the wings, a two-meter-long scorpion tail made entirely of black joints also appeared on his spine, with an Evil God Hook at the end of the tail that reflected a cold light!
Even Oscar himself did not expect that this time he not only obtained a Fifth Spirit Ring with a value of 55,000 years, but also a powerful External Soul Bone.
This External Soul Bone is not simply Black Wings or Evil God Hook, but rather the entire spine, upon which the Evil God Wings and the Evil God Hook are attached.
This means that Oscar's External Soul Bone directly gave the Dark Demon Evil God Tiger its most powerful parts, namely the Evil God Wings and the Evil God Hook.
This External Soul Bone not only enhanced Oscar's strength, but also gave his foundation a terrifying boost. In terms of physical attributes alone, Oscar, who had just reached level 55, had surpassed the Soul Saint level, and was at least at level 75.
Moreover, this External Soul Bone also granted Oscar two extremely powerful talent skills: Evil God's Protection and Life and Death Arena.
That's right, even Oscar, the trump Life and Death Arena of the Dark Demon Evil God Tiger, was obtained, and it was his own Spirit Bone Skill.
The Evil God's Protection is an extremely powerful defensive skill. Its defensive capabilities were demonstrated in the previous battle between the Dark Demon Evil God Tiger and Gai Yue. As long as Oscar's Soul Power is strong enough, this defensive skill can even allow Oscar to defend against attacks from Titled Douluo.
In a sense, as long as Oscar's Soul Power is sufficient to support this skill, its effect is almost identical to the Invincible Golden Body.
With this defensive skill, Oscar truly has a trump card to save his life. Unless the attack is powerful enough to kill Oscar instantly, Oscar can save his life with this skill.
When facing ordinary Soul Master, Oscar's Evil God's Protection is essentially an Invincible Golden Body without any time limit.
The Spirit Bone Skill "Life and Death Arena" is even more terrifying; it's a trump card, Divine Skill that can turn the tide of battle.
Oscar's two skills are both attached to External Soul Bone: Evil God's Protection comes from Evil God Wings, while Life and Death Arena comes from Evil God Hook.
Activating the Life and Death Arena will drag any Soul Master below the God level into the Evil God Space along with Oscar. Here, Soul Master hit by the Life and Death Arena will gradually age and their cultivation will decline as they get younger.
This means that Oscar now possesses the ability to kill any Soul Master below the God level thanks to this Soul Skill.
This is undoubtedly terrifying, considering that Oscar is only at level 55.
This skill, Oscar's trump card, is enough to turn the tide of life and death in an instant.
Of course, this skill is indeed terrifying enough, but it's not actually as powerful as you might imagine, since the prerequisite for activating the skill is hitting the opponent.
Although this skill can affect any Soul Master below the God level, Oscar currently lacks the ability to attack Level 99 Peerless Douluo.
If the skill misses, it means it has no effect. After all, the opponent isn't going to just stand there and let Oscar hit them.
Moreover, powerful figures like Titled Douluo would always seek to avoid danger. If they felt threatened, no matter how arrogant they were, they would not allow Oscar to attack them.
So this skill isn't actually as unbeatable as you might think, but it's definitely enough as a trump card.
Moreover, although this skill is powerful, it has a limitation: it can only be used once a year and cannot be stacked.
Each cooldown period begins after using the skill, and it can only be used again after a full year.
Therefore, this skill can only be used as a trump card, and cannot be used as a regular means of attack.
However, Oscar no longer needs this skill as a regular attack method, because in addition to Oscar powerful swordsmanship, he can now copy other people's Martial Soul.
Now, with such a powerful Fifth Spirit Ability, Oscar has become a humanoid Dark Demon Evil God Tiger after consuming Fifth Spirit Ability, and his strength is beyond doubt.
Of course, this doesn't mean that Oscar now possesses the strength to fight against Titled Douluo.
Without using the Life and Death Arena and Death or his Fifth Spirit Ability, Oscar, relying on his own strength—his forte of swordsmanship and copying other people's Martial Soul —was already strong enough at level 55 to deal with a Soul Saint.
If this Soul Saint uses his Martial Soul Avatar, Oscar might be no match for him, but escaping would definitely be no problem.
If he were to use his Fifth Spirit Ability, Oscar would be completely fearless even against a Soul Saint who had used Martial Soul Avatar, and might even be stronger.
Because of the Dark Demon Evil God Tiger's inherent talent, Oscar's Fifth Spirit Ability, which inherited all of the Dark Demon Evil God Tiger's abilities, was enough to double his combat power.
If it weren't for the limitation of Soul Power, Oscar would have been able to rival Titled Douluo with just this Fifth Spirit Ability.
Oscar himself had a premonition that, given his current foundation and rate of improvement, when he reaches level 70, he might be able to rival Titled Douluo simply by using his Fifth Spirit Ability.
This confidence came from the Dark Demon Evil God Tiger, after all, the Dark Demon Evil God Tiger was a god-level Soul Beast comparable to an angel.
Oscar's Fifth Spirit Ability is essentially turning the Dark Demon Evil God Tiger into his Martial Soul, except that it cannot absorb Soul Ring.
Although he cannot absorb Soul Ring, Oscar possesses all the talents of the Dark Demon Evil God Tiger. With just the six attributes of time, space, wind, lightning, evil, and darkness, he can make up for the lack of Soul Ring.
After all, Oscar's Spiritual Power and physical abilities far surpass any other Soul Master of the same level.
In addition, the Evil God Hook is also endowed with a passive ability: devouring.
Oscar can devour all life forms with the Evil God Hook and use them for his own purposes. He can not only rely on devouring Soul Power to help him cultivate, but also restore his Soul Power and even his Life Force through devouring.
This ability also comes entirely from the Dark Demon Evil God Tiger, and the reason why the Dark Demon Evil God Tiger is so powerful is largely due to this devouring ability.
According to Da Ming and Er Ming, this Dark Demon Evil God Tiger was only born a few thousand years ago, yet it has already achieved its current cultivation and strength because of its devouring ability.
Back then, Da Ming and Er Ming almost killed the Dark Demon Evil God Tiger, but unexpectedly, this beast recovered in just a few years by devouring the lives of other Soul Beast!
This is the power of the Dark Demon Evil God Tiger, and it's why Da Ming and Er Ming were so surprised when Oscar said that he had completely inherited the Dark Demon Evil God Tiger's abilities.
To test the power of Oscar's Fifth Spirit Ring, Oscar chose to fight Gai Yue one-on-one.
This canyon is now the territory of the Dark Demon Evil God Tiger, so there are basically no Soul Beast living around it, making it a perfect battlefield for the master and disciple.
Oscar, resembling a Humanoid Ferocious Beast, hovered in mid-air and slowly said, "Teacher, come and test the power of my Fifth Spirit Ability."
Gai Yue raised an eyebrow and smiled, the Frost Moon Sword already in his hand. Arcs of lightning danced on the ice-blue longsword, surrounded by a faint cyan hurricane.
These are the two attributes granted by Oscar's Fifth Spirit Ability: thunder and hurricane.
The Sky Azure Bull Python and the Titan Giant Ape brought Xiao Wu to the side and began to watch the battle intently.
Although Oscar's Fifth Spirit Ability sounds incredibly powerful, nothing beats witnessing it firsthand.
"Then let your teacher test your skills." Gai Yue finished speaking, he rose into the air and stood opposite Oscar.
Even without using a sword, Gai Yue, who is already at level 93, Flight through the air thanks to his powerful Soul Power. This is the strength of Titled Douluo.
Looking at the disciple who seemed to be Beast Spirit Soul Master, Gai Yue's Frost Moon Sword flashed with lightning arcs and shot out in the next moment.
A faint hurricane swirled around him, further increasing the speed of his Frost Moon Sword.
Gai Yue didn't deliberately give Oscar preferential treatment just because he was a teacher, but that didn't mean he would directly use Oscar's strength as Titled Douluo either.
Although Gai Yue's attack incorporated lightning and hurricane, its current power only reached the Soul Emperor level. He wanted to test Oscar's current strength.
The Frost Moon Sword arrived in an instant, but Oscar did not dodge at all. He simply swung his hands into claws and instantly created wind blades that blocked the Frost Moon Sword's attack.
The Frost Moon Sword, which already possessed the attack power of Soul Emperor -level Soul Master, was knocked away by several wind blades. Oscar's Black Wings vibrated, and he suddenly flew towards Gai Yue at high speed.
During the flight, Oscar's left and right hands were filled with endless lightning and hurricane. Although it was only the first time he had used this Soul Skill, he had barely mastered the power of these attributes.
"Lightning Blade!"
The next moment, Oscar rubbed his hands together, and the two powerful attributes merged into one, forming a huge Lightning Blade five meters long, which Severing towards Gai Yue.
Gai Yue raised his hand and the Frost Moon Sword returned to his grasp. He unleashed a fierce slash without any fancy moves.
As Gai Yue unleashed his sword strike, an equally massive sword aura slashed out, directly colliding with Oscar's Lightning Blade.
"Bang!"
The two attacks canceled each other out. Gai Yue raised an eyebrow. He had already raised his attack to the level of a high-level Soul Emperor, but he still couldn't suppress Oscar. This meant that Oscar, who was only level 55, could at least unleash strength comparable to Soul Saint with the support of this Fifth Spirit Ability.
This attack failed to stop Oscar's advance. In the next instant, Oscar arrived in an instant, his fists surging with an aura of evil and darkness, and he slammed them toward Gai Yue's face.
Gai Yue neither dodged nor evaded, raising his Frost Moon Sword directly to meet the attack. The next moment, Gai Yue was astonished by Oscar's terrifying power.
Because Oscar, who is only level 55, is unleashing power that is no less than that of a Soul Saint of the Assault System.
As the close combat began, Gai Yue grew increasingly alarmed. The master and disciple unleashed Wind-Thunder Slash from time to time, while Netherworld Evil Light and Dark Demon Evil Thunder clashed against each other.
Although Oscar couldn't hurt Gai Yue now, Gai Yue's own power had reached the level of High-level Spirit Saint, and it was comparable to Soul Saint who had used Martial Soul Avatar.
Even with such power, it only slightly suppressed Oscar. What's more terrifying is that Oscar's Evil God's Protection is too strong, allowing Oscar to abandon unnecessary defenses and focus entirely on attacking, because his Evil God's Protection can completely help him resist fatal attacks.
Moreover, the two-meter-long Evil God Hook has become Oscar's weapon. Although Oscar is still somewhat unfamiliar with using it, Gai Yue is certain that if an ordinary Soul Saint is hit by this Evil God Hook, he will be severely injured instantly.
The Evil God Hook surges with the power of the fusion of six elements, a powerful force of annihilation, enough to obliterate everything.
However, Oscar's Fifth Spirit Ability, though powerful, has its limits. When Gai Yue raised his attack to the Soul Douluo level again, Oscar found himself struggling to keep up.
Soon, Oscar's Soul Power was rapidly depleted, and he gradually became no match for Gai Yue, who slashed him down from the sky with a sword.
Oscar got up from the ground somewhat awkwardly, but his face showed excitement.
Judging from his recent battle with Gai Yue, he already possesses the strength to contend with Soul Saint expert.
If this Soul Saint's talent is average and he doesn't have Spirit Bone, Oscar would most likely be able to defeat him despite being of a higher level.
This gain was more than enough to excite Oscar, not to mention that his Evil God Hook and Evil God Wings were External Soul Bone, which consumed less Soul Power.
With the life-saving skill of Evil God's Protection and the trump card of Life and Life and Death Arena, as long as Oscar doesn't do anything reckless, he can now protect himself.
This self-preservation refers to Oscar's ability to protect himself even when facing powerful beings at least at the Titled Douluo level.
