What is your First Soul Skill?

Zhou Qing put down the Elemental Fox Elemental Fox in his arms and recalled its attack methods. He found that this kind of Soul Beast was quite similar to Yibu, except that it did not have a light-type energy attack like "Swift".

You Hui's First Spirit Ring came from Elemental Fox, and it was white. So how will her Soul Skill be presented?

Collision?

Biting?

Or is it in the form of Quick Attack?

Before completing its Elementalization transformation, the Elemental Fox possessed a skill similar to a burst of speed in a short period of time—well, an instinct... However, the Elemental Fox primarily used this ability to escape, rather than to advance or attack.

How so?

You Hui scratched her ear, glanced at everyone, and whispered, "It's Xiao Ni, come and demonstrate."

Xiao Ni was the name You Hui gave to the Elemental Fox.

"Waaah!"

The Elemental Fox Xiao Ni cried out twice, then opened its mouth wide and inhaled deeply for a full three minutes before stopping.

At this moment, a blue ring appeared around the fluffy tail behind Xiao Ni, unlike Soul Ring, it seemed to be formed by the condensation of Elemental Power.

"Eek!"

The Xiao Ni opened its mouth and spat out a water column about five centimeters wide.

Range?

It's only a little over two meters.

Xiao Wu covered her mouth, but laughter still escaped. "It feels like a boy standing up to pee."

You Hui covered her face, not daring to look directly at everyone. After all, her First Soul Skill was too embarrassing. But she still stubbornly said, "Although the Soul Skill is a bit weak, Xiao Ni can obey my commands to bite, pounce, and even use its head to ram, just like a real Soul Beast."

Zhou Qing believed this was the best way to use this External Beast Martial Soul, and regarding the essence of this Soul Skill—

He glanced at the small pond near the courtyard before saying, "I guess your Soul Skill exhibits different effects in different environments, doesn't it?"

"Hmm? The effects of Soul Skill can change depending on the environment?" Before You Hui could answer, Tang San was already puzzled. "Could it be that even fixed Soul Skill can change?"

"Of course not, but the effects of Soul Skill can be diverse. For example, your First Soul Skill, Life Accumulation, can enhance the effects of your future Soul Skill, or it can enhance the skills you create yourself."

Zhou Qing patiently explained, "As for the effect of You Hui's First Soul Skill, if I had to describe it in four words, I think it would be: eat whatever you want and vomit it up."

What skills does the Elemental Fox have?

It possesses all the abilities that a common fox has: a keen sense of smell, a nimble body, and the instinct to hunt.

But besides that, Zhou Qing believes there is another hidden ability, the most fundamental skill—drawing on the Elemental Power of heaven and earth.

Once Elemental Fox reaches a thousand years of cultivation, it can actively absorb the most abundant Elemental Power in its surroundings, refine it, and complete its transformation.

Refining is the innate ability of the Elemental Fox.

Other Soul Beast can also evolve by refining special ores and herbs, but it takes a long time, ranging from a hundred to a thousand years.

And what about the Elemental Fox?

This unique talent of "refining" allows one to refine the Elemental Power of heaven and earth in a short time, changing the structure of every cell in the body, thereby completing the evolution of the species.

The ancestors of the Elemental Fox and its relatives possessed no known talents or abilities, but the passive talent that the Elemental Fox possesses today is the word "refinement".

This talent is possessed by every Elemental Fox, an instinct similar to breathing, but it will only be activated when a certain level of cultivation is reached.

But now it has been inherited by You Hui, who possesses the Elemental Fox Martial Soul.

"So, this Soul Skill is a refinement?"

Tang San no longer dared to underestimate You Hui's First Soul Skill. Although the effect looked weak, who would have thought that it was the most instinctive skill of the Elemental Fox?

At this moment, You Hui also spoke up, "Yes, in places with water, the Xiao Ni can take a deep breath and exhale water; in open areas, it can take a deep breath and exhale wind; in hot places, it can take a deep breath and breathe fire. But the power is not strong. The water is only so big, the fire can only be used to scare people, and the wind is the most practical, as it can be used to cool people down. However, considering the consumption of Soul Power, with my level 12 Soul Power, the cost-effectiveness is not very high."

"It seems I guessed right. Your Martial Soul inherited the most innate ability of the Elemental Fox: Refinement."

Zhou Qing confirmed his guess.

"But it's probably incomplete. Perhaps it could be called: Absorption! The function of this Soul Skill is probably just to absorb the Elemental Power between heaven and earth to condense the corresponding Elemental Ring so that Xiao Ni can use the corresponding elemental power. But how to use it specifically is You Hui Youhui will have to create yourself."

"And your choice of your Second Spirit Ring or even Third Spirit Ring in the future may not require you to rush to determine which attribute path you will take in the future."

You Hui was puzzled.

Zhou Qing didn't keep them in suspense and said directly, "Nuoding Academy once had someone with your type of detached Beast Martial Soul, you should know that."

"Grandmaster?" You Hui immediately thought of Yu Xiaogang.

"That's right, it's him."

Zhou Qing then described his conjecture about why Luo Sanpao mutated into an detached form. "I have communicated with Ning Fengzhi and Sword Douluo of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect and know the specific process and appearance of the Martial Soul Fusion Skill that Yu Xiaogang once performed with two other powerful Soul Master— "

In my opinion, that wasn't Martial Soul Fusion Skill, but rather, with the infusion of Soul Power from two other Soul Master, Luo Sanpao underwent a brief transformation, becoming Golden Holy Dragon...

This proves that Luo Sanpao's mutation was most likely due to possessing the bloodline of the Golden Holy Dragon, but Yu Xiaogang himself was unaware of this. Instead, he felt that his Martial Soul had become a burden, but in reality, he was still unable to bear the bloodline of the Golden Holy Dragon.

Similarly, your Elemental Fox Martial Soul appearing in a separated form might be due to a special mutation that awakened some unknown special bloodline, which your current physical body cannot yet withstand... Perhaps when you reach the Soul Saint stage, the Martial Soul's bloodline will be fully awakened and grow into its complete form, allowing it to appear in a possessing form.

Tang San and Xiao Wu also remembered what Sky Dream Ice Silkworm had once told them about the origin of the Elemental Fox.

The ancestors of the Elemental Fox secretly possessed the Silver Dragon Blood and refined it, which is why the Elemental Fox race has the ability to evolve at the millennium level.

If You Hui's Martial Soul has indeed awakened some kind of peculiar bloodline, then her talent is very likely related to the Elemental Fox ancestor who was able to refine the Silver Dragon Blood.

You Hui asked in confusion, "So?"

"So--"

"Your Second Spirit Ring and even Third Spirit Ring are both made from the un-transformed Elemental Fox Martial Soul. Perhaps this will allow you to fix the 'Refinement' talent as your true Soul Skill, instead of only applying it when you absorb your Third Spirit Ring!"

"You have a noble status, so most of the time you don't need to worry about your own safety. Therefore, whether the skills of the first three Soul Ring can be used for attack is actually irrelevant."

"The important thing is that if you can use the first three Soul Ring as a price to fix the Elemental Fox's 'Refinement' talent into your Martial Soul's active ability, instead of just the passive ability in the Third Spirit Ring, then you may be able to control all Elemental Power in the future! Hmm~ it just depends on whether you have the energy to carefully study the properties and functions of each element and attribute in the future."
