Sky Crystal Barrier

Biodata

Specifications

History

The Sky Crystal Barrier was the first grand-finale item at the Tiandou Auction House. Gu You had Bai Haoze bid for it, ultimately securing it for thirty million Federal Coins after the other bidders withdrew. 21

Xu Mingzhi personally delivered the device to Gu You after the auction. Gu You inspected its cold crystal body and the Soul Guidance arrays inside, but did not test it because activating a Class Nine device with his own soul power could drain him completely. Bai Haoze carried it for him at the time. 22

During the attack by the Evil Soul Elder, Bai Haoze activated the Sky Crystal Barrier and threw it to Gu You. It became Gu You's principal defense while he supported Bai Haoze from the air with Creation Conversion. 24 The barrier blocked the Evil Soul Elder's black flames without damage and reflected the attack away from Gu You. 25

Afterward, Gu You regarded the barrier as a key life-saving measure and requested both a storage device and a sufficiently powerful Soul Guidance Milk Bottle from Leng Yaozhu. He later stored the Sky Crystal Barrier in the Fire Phoenix Bracelet, though the required level-seven Milk Bottle had not yet been obtained. 27 30 31

Appearance

The Sky Crystal Barrier resembles a compact rhombus-like crystal that fits in one hand. It is composed of multiple smaller crystals and contains flowing silver-white light.

• Its interior bears dense, fine Soul Guidance arrays. 22
• When activated, it releases countless silver-white Sky Crystal fragments. 24
• The fragments orbit the user in a shifting formation resembling a curtain of flowing crystal light. 24

Abilities & Functions

All-Around Crystal Defense

Upon activation, Sky Crystal fragments spread around the user and automatically converge wherever an incoming attack originates.

• Forms a defensive formation centered on its wielder. 24
• Reacts to attacks from any direction by gathering fragments into the threatened area. 21 24
• Can seal the gaps between its fragments to create a continuous shield wall. 24
• Protected Gu You from the Evil Soul Elder's black-flame attack without showing any cracks. 25

High-Grade Defensive Endurance

The device is described as capable of resisting attacks far beyond Gu You's personal cultivation.

• Auction appraisal states that it can endure at least three full-force attacks from a Titled-level powerhouse. 21
• Bai Haoze judged that the Evil Soul Elder, despite his battle armor and Martial Soul True Body, could not break it in a short time. 24
• Its protection depends on the soul power supplied to it; prolonged attacks may become dangerous once its stored power is exhausted. 25

Known Users

• Gu You — purchaser and current holder; uses it as a defensive trump card. 21 27
• Bai Haoze — bid for it on Gu You's behalf, carried it after delivery, and activated it during the battle with the Evil Soul Elder. 21 22 24
• Leng Yaozhu — recognizes it as a highly powerful defensive Soul Guidance Device and is asked to help Gu You obtain a suitable Milk Bottle for it. 27 30 31

Trivia

• Gu You repeatedly compares the barrier's protection to a “turtle shell.” 21 24
• Gu You's Golden Pupils intimidated other auction attendees into abandoning further bids, indirectly helping Bai Haoze secure the device for thirty million Federal Coins. 21
