Bewildering Rain Mist Like a Domain

'Third Soul Skill—Bewildering Rain Mist.'

Faced with the attack Shi Lihao launched by driving the Blood Infant, Su Ming reacted with incredible speed.

He immediately unleashed the Third Soul Skill he had just acquired.

It was not an offensive Soul Skill, but rather a combination of a control-type Soul Skill and a defensive Soul Skill.

With Su Ming's abilities, killing Shi Lihao, who possessed the strength of a Soul King, in an instant would naturally have been no problem.

The reason he had not done so was to test his own abilities.

A live target like this, one he could test on freely without worrying about the consequences, was incredibly rare.

"A Ten Thousand Year Soul Ring?!" Shi Lihao was dumbfounded as he stared at the black Spirit Ring shining around Su Ming.

Was he dreaming?

A child of seven or eight actually had a Ten Thousand Year Soul Ring!

If he had not seen it with his own eyes, even Shi Lihao, who knew that Evil Soul Masters possessed many wicked arts, would never have believed it.

But then, Shi Lihao became incredibly excited. The heavens are truly blessing me!

Knowing that I'm badly injured and desperately need to replenish myself, they specially sent such a monstrous genius to serve as my food!!

Rather than panicking, Shi Lihao grew even more excited.

How much would devouring such a monstrous genius improve him?!

At the same time, accompanied by the cry of a whale.

A light rain began to fall over the forest. This was an innate ability Su Ming had gained after obtaining the Kyogre martial soul.

But this was no ordinary rain. It was the true Bewildering Rain Mist formed after merging with his Third Soul Skill.

Strands of mist began to spread outward from Su Ming as their center.

They also shielded Su Ming and Lan Fozu beside him.

"Drip..."

Several crimson threads as sharp as blades lost their power the instant they touched the rain mist.

Like ordinary red threads, they fell straight to the ground.

"What?!" Shi Lihao found it unbelievable.

Before he could make another move, the mist suddenly spread at high speed, enveloping the entire area where the rain was falling.

Under the cover of the Bewildering Rain Mist, Su Ming and Lan Fozu gradually vanished from sight, as though they had truly disappeared.

"Something's wrong. Where are they? Where did they go?!" Realizing it belatedly, Shi Lihao rushed over, only to find no one there.

This inevitably made him anxious.

This bizarre method filled Shi Lihao with the panic of things slipping out of his control.

"Eh? Big Brother, this guy really hasn't noticed us at all?!" Lan Fozu said admiringly to Su Ming as she watched Shi Lihao, who was right in front of them yet still unable to discover either of them.

This Soul Skill was far too useful.

They were clearly standing so close together, yet separated by a layer of rain mist, no matter what they did, the other side would not notice.

"The remarkable part doesn't end there."

Watching Shi Lihao rage helplessly in frustration, Su Ming was very satisfied with the effects of his Third Soul Skill.

Third Soul Skill—Bewildering Rain Mist:

As the rain mist spread, it not only obscured enemies' vision and spiritual senses within its range, causing them to completely lose their sense of direction, but also stripped its targets of their sense of time and space...

Before enemies could see through the rain mist, those on Su Ming's side seemed to have completely vanished, leaving no trace to follow.

Furthermore, opponents within the rain mist would have their speed and attack power greatly weakened...

In a sense, it was like a domain.

In Su Ming's view, this Third Soul Skill had been acquired exceptionally well, and it had tremendous potential for development.

Perhaps one day, it could truly become a real domain.

"Damn it, damn it! Why have I returned to this rotten place again?!"

Looking at the large tree he had marked, Shi Lihao was on the verge of a mental breakdown.

At first, he had used his Soul Power and Soul Skills in an attempt to break through this so-called rain mist, but it had been useless.

Then, he tried the most foolish method: walking out of it.

Yet no matter which direction he went, even if he flew into the sky, the final result was always the same—he returned to his current starting point.

At first, Shi Lihao had not noticed any of this.

It was only as he continued walking that he discovered an identical tree appearing from time to time.

Only after marking it did Shi Lihao realize that he had been circling back to the same spot the entire time, doing nothing but wasting effort.

One bizarre experience after another left Shi Lihao feeling utterly broken and powerless.

Beyond exhaustion and hunger, what despairing Shi Lihao the most was that he no longer knew how long he had been trapped within this rain mist.

This is only the beginning!

A trace of disdain flashed through Su Ming's heart as he looked at Shi Lihao's current state.

Then, he stripped Shi Lihao of his remaining sense of space as well.

The marked tree, the grass beneath his feet that had once felt solid...

One after another, they vanished from Shi Lihao's sight.

"No, no, no!!" Shi Lihao lunged forward, trying to keep the tree from disappearing.

But it was all futile. When he threw himself forward, all he caught was rain mist.

The so-called tree had completely disappeared.

"Come out! You two, come out! If you have the guts, let's fight face-to-face!!"

Shi Lihao rose from the ground, feeling the completely altered sensation beneath his feet.

He was no longer as crazed as before, like a trapped beast making its final struggle.

Everywhere he looked and everything he touched was rain mist. Nothing else remained.

Shi Lihao began to curse, once again trying to provoke Su Ming and Lan Fozu in the darkness and force them to reveal themselves.

Seeing this, Su Ming used the same trick again and directly cut off Shi Lihao's curses.

"Big Brother, someone like him shouldn't be allowed to die so easily!" Lan Fozu said indignantly from the side.

Su Ming had just explained matters regarding the Blood Infant martial soul to her.

That made her hate Shi Lihao even more.

Such a monstrous villain—no, someone who could no longer even be called human—absolutely could not be let off so easily.

"Don't worry." Su Ming rubbed Lan Fozu's head.

After an unknown amount of time had passed, Shi Lihao collapsed onto the ground formed from rain mist with a thud.

He wept bitterly, as though his emotions had completely broken down.

"I'm begging you, let me out. I really know I was wrong."

"As long as you let me out, I'm willing to serve as your slave and servant, to be at your command..."

After struggling to sit up from the ground formed by rain mist, Shi Lihao suddenly began kneeling and kowtowing in every direction, as though he had truly repented.

"Oh, quite the master actor." Su Ming watched this scene with interest.

Of course, Shi Lihao's actions would not move him.

Feeling pity for the other party was absolutely impossible for Su Ming.

An Evil Soul Master like this, one everyone deserved to kill, could never be taken in as a subordinate by Su Ming, no matter how talented he was.

A bottom line would always remain a bottom line.
