The Third Spirit Skill--Roar of Time, External Spirit Bone!

"You don't want to play anymore? Too late!"

Bai Mu's eyes turned cold: "Stop it, Land's Wrath!"

"Roar~"

Zygarde's eyes flashed, and it actually used Land's Wrath to detonate the cliffs on both sides of the valley entrance!

Boom!

Rocks fell, and debris flew through the air.

The scene was like a natural disaster descending.

Even the Tusked Time Hunters, who were charging recklessly, stopped in their tracks, their fear etched into their genes.

Bai Mu shouted in his heart: "Xiao Ruan, Land's Wrath, full power!"

"Roar!"

Zygarde let out a long roar, and brilliant green light erupted instantly.

Rumble!

The ground of the entire valley vibrated violently at the same time.

Swish! Swish! Swish!

The ground collapsed, the rock walls exploded, the soil churned, and endless earth power surged forth!

At this point, the Tusked Time Hunters, filled with fear, could only fully erect their Time Barrier to defend themselves.

They were then completely enveloped by the earth's power and utterly consumed!

Rumble--!

The terrifying tremors continued unabated.

The horrifying scene, like the earth turning over, scared the Spirit Beasts within a radius of several miles into fleeing in all directions.

One minute, two minutes, five minutes----

A full half hour passed before Zygarde, sensing the Tusked Time Hunters' weakened aura, finally stopped its attack.

What was once a wide valley had now been reduced to ruins.

"Ah~"

The Tusked Hunter let out a mournful howl, its massive body collapsing onto the ground, barely alive as its life force rapidly drained away.

Bai Mu slowly approached and gave the final command: "Xiao Ruan, finish it."

"Woof~"

Zygarde stepped forward, and a mouthful of scorching Dragon Pulse completely took its life.

Immediately after, spirit power and a peculiar gray mist rose from its corpse, then transformed into a deep black Spirit Ring enveloped in the gray mist.

A Ten Thousand Year Spirit Ring!

"Phew, it's finally over."

Bai Mu finally breathed a sigh of relief. "Fortunately, it didn't have too many powerful time Spirit Skills, otherwise I might have really lost."

Of course, it was also possible that he was being overly cautious.

He hadn't let Zygarde get close the entire time, preventing the Tusked Hunter from even launching a final counterattack before death.

"Spirit Beasts with time attributes are truly terrifying. Even their Spirit Rings have an extra layer of gray mist effect compared to others."

"I just don't know what Spirit Skill I'll get after absorbing it, or if it can resonate with that move for me!"

He looked at the black Spirit Ring, his eyes flashing with fervor.

"Xiao Ruan, guard me!"

"Woof!"

Although Zygarde was exhausted, it still mustered its strength, scattering Z-Cells around to maintain vigilance.

Meanwhile, Bai Mu sat down cross-legged and began to guide the Spirit Ring through meditation.

"Whoosh!"

As the Spirit Ring flew above Bai Mu's head, his consciousness re-entered his spiritual world.

Unlike before, no information popped up directly this time. Instead, a giant wild boar appeared!

The Tusked Hunter Remnant Soul!

Seeing the culprit, Bai Mu appear, the Tusked Hunter immediately charged forward like a madman, its two tusks emitting a brilliant light capable of piercing anything.

"You still want to run wild in my spiritual world? Do you have the ability?"

Bai Mu sneered, and with a grip in the void, he produced a rocket launcher.

Fire!

Boom!

Brilliant sparks exploded in the spiritual world, blasting the Tusked Time Hunter far away.

"Is that all?"

Bai Mu's hands shifted with light and shadow, and a Purgatory Gatling materialized in his arms.

He pulled the trigger, and an endless storm of bullets instantly turned the Tusked Time Hunter into a sieve.

Amidst the smoke, the Tusked Time Hunter's remnant soul shattered completely.

"Dust to dust, earth to earth, the children of rats will dance!"

"Since you're dead, don't struggle anymore!"

Bai Mu waved his hand, clearing away all traces. Familiar information reappeared: [Successfully absorbed the 12,458-year Tusked Time Hunter Spirit Ring, obtained the third Spirit Skill: Temporal Penetration (Gathers the power of time for a powerful strike, able to attack while ignoring the target's defense!)]

"This must be the Spirit Skill that allowed the Tusked Time Hunter to easily pierce and kill other Spirit Beasts when attacking them."

Thinking of the tragic state of Spirit Beasts being pierced by tusks, Bai Mu felt this move could be considered extraordinary.

But the main event was still to come!

[Pokemon Skills that can resonate and be replaced: Trick Room, Diamond Storm, Power Gem, Imprison, Disable, Protect----Roar of Time]

"This skill list is really messy!"

Bai Mu hadn't expected there to be so many skills that could resonate with Spirit Beasts.

But he ignored them, his gaze quickly scanning the skills, and soon locked onto a special one—Roar of Time.

Roar of Time, the exclusive move of Dialga, the God of Time in the Pokemon world, could unleash powerful energy that distorted time to attack opponents. Using the move would cause a brief period of immobility.

It was a powerful move, but also one with significant limitations.

However, the real world was different from a game. As long as the user was strong enough, they could forcefully ignore the side effect of immobility.

The only real drawback was that Zygarde was not Dialga. Even if it could use Roar of Time, it didn't mean it could wield other time powers like the latter.

If it truly wanted to use them, it would have to start from scratch and learn them bit by bit to have a chance of mastering them.

However----

"It's enough!"

Bai Mu curved his lips. To possess the exclusive move of another divine beast, what more could he ask for?

The sheer power alone was worth the investment!

[I choose to resonate Roar of Time with Temporal Penetration!]

The moment he made his choice, Bai Mu withdrew from the spiritual world once more.

The spirit power within his Spirit Rings continuously surged into his body, propelling him to break through level 30 and enter a brand new realm.

His already strong physique became even more robust under the nourishment of the Spirit Rings, his muscles growing denser, and even his skin became considerably tougher.

About two hours later, Bai Mu finally opened his eyes after undergoing the spirit power modification.

"Wait! Something seems off!"

Before Bai Mu could even assess his condition, he noticed that everything within his vision began to fluctuate.

Temporal Ripple!

"I can see 'time' now?"

Bai Mu looked around in astonishment.

"Woof~"

Zygarde raised a paw and pointed at Bai Mu's eyes.

"What's wrong with my eyes?"

Bai Mu quickly retrieved a mirror from his Soul Tool.

What met his gaze was still that handsome, clean-cut face with a hint of childishness.

However, his usually bright and spirited eyes had now lost their blackness, shimmering with a diamond-like brilliance.

"Damn! It's kinda beautiful!"

Looking at the beautiful eyes in the mirror, Bai Mu couldn't help but have the urge to pluck them out and treasure them.

"Is this considered an External Spirit Bone?"

"What abilities and special features does it have?"

Bai Mu tried to control it. As his eyes lit up slightly, he felt his speed increase by an almost imperceptible amount.

He looked around again and realized he seemed to be able to influence the time of everything within a certain range.

"Could this be... the Time Domain of a Time Hunter!"

Bai Mu was momentarily stunned.

He hadn't expected to have another chance to obtain an External Spirit Bone beyond the original ones.

And he had even managed to extract the Spirit Beast's most formidable ability!

Although, this ability was currently pathetically weak.

It could only affect the flow of time by less than 1%.
