Angel Family Bundle + Huo Yuhao's Sixth Soul Skill

Ye Chenxing smiled faintly, then sat down cross-legged and nodded to Saber at his side.

Saber understood at once. She planted her longsword upside down in the ground and stood guard over him.

Seeing Ye Chenxing begin absorbing the soul ring, Di Tian strode quickly to the auspicious beast's side and anxiously examined her.

"Auspicious beast, how do you feel? Is anything uncomfortable?"

Anything involving the auspicious beast required Di Tian to be exceedingly cautious.

"I'm fine." The auspicious beast shook her head. Not only was she not weakened in the slightest, but her golden eyes had grown even brighter. "If anything, after that bead was pulled out, my mind feels much clearer!"

Hearing this, Di Tian's eyes narrowed instantly, and an uncontrollable, terrifying killing intent erupted from the Beast God's body.

That human soul within the auspicious beast had clearly been forcibly planted there by someone!

Coupled with that sensation of being watched for a full ten years...

Those lofty gods of the God Realm had not only sealed off the soul beast race's path to godhood, but had now even shamelessly set their sights on the auspicious beast, attempting to use that human soul as a vessel to steal the final fortune of the Star Dou Great Forest—and even the entire soul beast race!

If Ye Chenxing had not acted today, the future of the soul beast race might truly have been buried without anyone realizing it.

Di Tian felt a lingering chill of fear and looked at Ye Chenxing, who was sitting cross-legged and absorbing the golden soul ring, with an extremely complicated expression.

He could not see through this youth.

Just how had he done it? Absorbed the Golden Tree's power, summoned a martial soul with peak combat strength, and even casually undone the gods' tampering with the auspicious beast.

The shock Ye Chenxing had given him today was simply too great.

At the same time, Di Tian found himself beginning to look forward, however faintly, to what other surprises Ye Chenxing might bring him.

"However..."

Di Tian took a deep breath and turned his gaze toward the deepest part of the Lake of Life.

"It seems today's matter has completely exceeded my control. I must awaken my lord and report everything to her."

While Di Tian's thoughts churned, the auspicious beast had already curiously moved over to Saber's side and struck up a conversation without any guard.

"Who are you? You're so strange. You're clearly human, so why do I sense such a particularly familiar aura from you?"

Saber maintained her vigilant stance throughout. Hearing the auspicious beast's question, she pondered for a moment before answering calmly.

"Because Master used your fur as the 'medium' catalyst during the summoning ritual that brought me into this world. I was able to manifest through the ultimate fire and ultimate light that share the same origin as you."

The auspicious beast tilted her head and blinked, half-understanding.

The human before her was not only beautiful, but also possessed an aura that made her feel close.

Even Saber herself did not know that she had already left a deep impression in the auspicious beast's heart.

Soon afterward, the Lake of Life fell into a brief silence.

Suddenly, a sacred and vast aura surged magnificently from Ye Chenxing's body.

A golden soul ring surrounded by a blue-pink halo slowly emerged beneath his feet.

His first soul ring had been completely absorbed.

Bathed in that immense energy, Ye Chenxing's body underwent a transformation visible to the naked eye. His originally refined yet somewhat childish features shed some of their youthful immaturity, his figure grew several inches taller, and his entire aura became deeper and more unfathomable.

"It's finally over."

Ye Chenxing slowly opened his eyes and let out a long breath of stale air.

Compared to the improvement in his abilities, this slight change in appearance was not worth mentioning to him.

The first and most obvious change was the explosive rise in his soul power—an entire ten levels!

That was right. There was no instability whatsoever. His soul power had been forcibly raised by ten ranks, directly reaching the threshold of a Great Spirit Master. As long as he absorbed one more soul ring, he could break through at any time.

His physical strength had reached the level of a beast martial soul Spirit Ancestor. In other words, if Ye Chenxing's spiritual power was also sufficient, he could directly absorb a soul ring over nine thousand years old.

If they spoke solely of his capacity to endure soul ring absorption, Ye Chenxing's spiritual power could no longer be measured by conventional standards.

When the Fantasy Tree within him had successfully awakened, his sea of consciousness had become a Mind Star Sea.

From then on, he was permanently immune to spiritual attacks of any level and could withstand soul rings of any level. Even if the Sky Dream Ice Silkworm's million-year spiritual power were poured into his Mind Star Sea, it would be like an ant trying to shake a tree.

However, for now, he merely had the capacity. His spiritual power itself was only at the unremarkable level of a high-ranking Spirit Emperor.

And this was merely the passive improvement granted by this unprecedented soul ring.

The Hall of Heroes Martial Soul allowed Ye Chenxing to perform a Heroic Spirit summoning each time he broke through a bottleneck. The identity of the Heroic Spirit summoned would be related to the catalyst and the soul ring absorbed during the breakthrough.

But if it were merely summoning, then among the martial souls of countless transmigrators, its strength would only qualify as superior to the average person.

Its true power lay in allowing Ye Chenxing to unconditionally use all the summoned individual's abilities while retaining the soul skills granted by the soul ring itself.

This "three-in-one" soul ring, formed from the auspicious beast, the Six-Winged Angel, and a fragment of the God King's daughter's soul, had granted him soul skills that were practically cheats.

First was the ability of a Master.

The current Ye Chenxing could use all of Saber's skills unconditionally, as though they were his own soul skills.

That was right—every single skill.

Ye Chenxing immersed his mind in the Mind Star Sea and inspected it briefly: Angel Assault, Angel Roar, Angel Judgment, Angel True Form, Angel Phantom, Angel Sacred Fire, Angel Light, Divine Judgment, Angel Domain, Angel Blessing... In an instant, the dense array of skills was simply dazzling.

How was this merely giving him a first soul skill? It was practically serving up the god-level Six-Winged Angel Martial Soul directly onto his table.

One had to know that in the original work, even the Sky Dream Ice Silkworm's million-year soul ring had only given Huo Yuhao one vacant martial soul slot.

Yet Ye Chenxing's vacant slots, excluding his Martial Soul True Body, still numbered a full seven.

The second was the identical soul skill that Huo Yuhao had only obtained at his sixth ring in the original work—Deprivation of Fate!

Its effect was simple and brutal: it directly dissolved all of the opponent's defenses on the level of fate. That meant that as long as they were struck by this move, all of Ye Chenxing's subsequent attacks would deal true damage with every blow!

Not far away, Di Tian watched Ye Chenxing complete his transformation and could not help but sigh inwardly.

Humans truly were heaven's favored children. Merely absorbing a soul ring could bring about such a radically different change.

And this youth's talent was unprecedented even among these favored prodigies, and likely would never be surpassed.

Suppressing the turmoil in his heart, Di Tian tactfully avoided the topic of soul skills and instead asked in a grave voice, "The god who left that method behind in the auspicious beast will likely not let this go. You have ruined his plans this time. How do you intend to deal with it?"
