At this moment, Ye Xuan was continuously comprehending the soul skills brought forth by this Million Year Evil Eye Holy King Torso Bone.
"I never expected this Million Year Soul Bone of the Evil Eye Holy King to grant me two active soul skills and one passive effect. Furthermore, the effects of these two external soul bone palms seem far superior to the external soul bone of the Dark Gold Terrorclaw Bear."
Feeling the new abilities bestowed upon him by the soul bone, he could clearly sense a thick, surging Bloodline Power churning within his veins.
This Holy King Torso Bone provided him with two active soul skills.
The first is named Wrath of God.
Its effect is simple and brutal: it instantly increases all of his attributes by 100% for a full half-hour. Moreover, this ability has no side effects; in principle, as long as his soul power is sufficient, he can maintain it indefinitely.
The second is named Primal Regression. This ability acts upon the soul beasts he has subdued, and its effect is equally simple and brutal: it significantly enhances the bloodline power within the subdued soul beast and increases all of its attributes by 80%.
The third soul skill is a passive effect named Might of God, which can be considered a growth-type domain ability.
As his strength increases, the coverage area of Might of God will continue to expand.
Currently, with his cultivation as a peak level 46 Soul Ancestor, he can cover a radius of four hundred and fifty meters.
Within the domain, Ye Xuan's own attributes are increased by 10%.
Against opponents of the same rank, all friendly units gain a 5% increase to all attributes, while enemy units suffer a 10% reduction.
If the enemy or ally is too powerful, the effect will be greatly diminished.
However, this domain possesses absolute suppression against soul masters of a lower level than him.
Sensing the bountiful harvest he had reaped this time, Ye Xuan could not suppress the corners of his mouth from curling upward.
Hu Liena, who was being carried by Ghost Douluo, happened to notice Ye Xuan's beaming expression, and a hint of curiosity rose in her charming, beautiful eyes.
"Junior Brother, you seem very happy. Could it be that you obtained something good inside the Holy King Ruins?"
Hearing Hu Liena's inquiry, Ye Xuan decided to play coy.
"Senior Sister, if I told you that the person who obtained the inheritance of the Holy King was not one of those trash from the Star Luo Imperial Family, would you be surprised?"
"What? You mean the person who obtained the Holy King's inheritance was not a disciple of the Star Luo Imperial Family!"
The conversation between Ye Xuan and Hu Liena also attracted the attention of Chrysanthemum Douluo and Ghost Douluo.
They had not entered the ruins, so they were not entirely clear about what had transpired inside.
"Hmm... to be precise, the inheritance of the Evil Eye Holy King was not actually inherited by anyone, and the strange phenomena that Elder Yue Guan and Elder Gui Mei witnessed were not caused by someone obtaining the Holy King's inheritance."
As these words fell, looks of suspicion appeared on the faces of Chrysanthemum Douluo and Ghost Douluo.
After all, they had clearly seen the might of the Holy King enveloping the entire Star Luo Imperial City.
"No one obtained the inheritance? Then why did everyone say there were strange phenomena in the heavens and earth?"
Hu Liena's beautiful eyes, clear as autumn water, were filled with confusion.
"It's very simple. That commotion was entirely due to Tian Meng; he reached a certain deal with it while we were trapped in the Evil Eye Holy King's illusion."
Hearing this, not to mention Hu Liena, even Yue Guan and Gui Mei felt an itch in their hearts.
"A deal?"
"What kind of deal?!"
Seeing her thirst for knowledge, Ye Xuan hooked the corners of his mouth slightly.
"It's quite simple: I had that divine sense of the Evil Eye Holy King sacrifice itself to me."
As the words fell, Yue Guan and Gui Mei looked as if they had seen a ghost; their bodies swayed, nearly dropping him and Hu Liena from the air.
"Ahem, of course, a mere remnant soul could not support its own consciousness, so Tian Meng had it take a hundred-thousand-year-level Evil Eye White Tiger torso bone as a carrier."
"The fusion method is actually similar to when I subdued Ah Yin; after it sacrificed itself to me, I used the power of that soul bone to help it condense a physical form..."
By the time he finished, Ye Xuan felt his mouth going dry.
"Ahem."
"In short, that is what happened. What you saw outside the ruins must have been the scene of the Evil Eye Holy King sacrificing itself to me and my subsequent absorption of that soul bone."
Ye Xuan's words left the three people present completely stunned on the spot.
Good heavens.
Others came here seeking opportunities, but him?
He had directly tricked the remnant soul of the Evil Eye Holy King into "joining the team with capital," and even managed to sweet-talk the Evil Eye Holy King into becoming his own hired muscle.
"Oh, one more thing: I am now a peak level 46 Soul Ancestor. My cultivation is almost on par with Senior Sister's now."
As he finished.
The silence of the three was deafening.
Level 39 peak when entering the Holy King Ruins, level 46 peak when leaving.
Breaking through seven levels in a mere half-day, and even subduing the Evil Eye Holy King as a lackey.
Chrysanthemum Douluo and Ghost Douluo exchanged glances, both seeing the helplessness in each other's eyes.
When they were Ye Xuan's age, they seemed to have only been at level 28, and even then, they were hailed as soul master prodigies seen only once in a century.
Yet look at the opponent? A peak level 46, a full two major ranks ahead of them.
The Star Luo Empire was a great distance from Martial Soul Hall; even for Super Douluo like Yue Guan and Gui Mei at level 95, it was a full day's journey.
Dusk.
Martial Soul Hall.
Yue Guan, Gui Mei, Ye Xuan, and Hu Liena entered the Pope Palace together.
After Yue Guan and Gui Mei gave a brief report on the situation, they turned and left immediately.
Upon learning that Ye Xuan had hoodwinked the Evil Eye Holy King into sacrificing itself for him, and had even obtained a 100,000-year Torso Bone, Bibi Dong's gaze toward him was filled with admiration and curiosity.
"Ye Xuan, is what Yue Guan and the others said true?"
"Replying to Teacher, Elder Yue Guan and the others spoke not a word of falsehood. This disciple has indeed struck a deal with the remnant soul of the Evil Eye Holy King, and I have also fused with a top-grade Torso Bone."
"Oh? Can you demonstrate it for your teacher?"
"As you command."
Ye Xuan did not hesitate, immediately shedding his cloak and outer garment to reveal his streamlined, perfect physique.
His posture was tall and sturdy, with broad shoulders and a thick back forming an inverted triangle.
His waist was lean and taut, his thighs thick, his calves solid, and his sinews and bones were tough, as if brimming with endless explosive power.
Along his spine, a faint, pearlescent phantom of a roaring tiger quietly emerged, and the surging, intensely masculine Bloodline Power instantly shrouded half of the Pope Palace.
"Teacher, this is the Holy King Torso Bone that the Evil Eye Holy King fused into me. However, because the quality of this spirit bone is so high, the excess energy condensed into two additional External Palm Bones."
