Fusion of the External Soul Bone: Double Pupils, Disturbance in the Distance (Seeking Recommendations and Favorites!)

"Dad!"

After reading the letter and slowly setting it down, Lin Ye felt a little sorrowful.

We would meet again someday?

But he did not even know where his parents had gone. How was he supposed to see them again? Still, the sadness lingered in Lin Ye's heart for only a moment.

Though he also wished, like everyone else, to have his parents by his side, Lin Ye had grown used to being alone over the years.

Burying his longing deep in his heart, Lin Ye took the wooden box out of the jade pendant again.

After placing the letter inside, Lin Ye stored the wooden box back in the Jade Pendant Space and took out the second wooden box.

Inside this wooden box were the External Soul Bone: Double Pupils his father had mentioned, along with three Titled Douluo Experience Cards.

Upon opening the box, a pair of silver-white crystal spheres with two silver-gray pupils inside them, as well as three golden crystal cards, came into Lin Ye's view.

These two silver-white eyeballs with two silver-gray pupils inside them must be the External Soul Bone: Double Pupils his father had mentioned. As for the three golden crystal cards, they should be the Titled Douluo Experience Cards.

Looking at the two items in the box, Lin Ye took out the two small silver-white crystal spheres and examined them in his hands.

By the clear moonlight pouring down from the sky, Lin Ye could vaguely make out that the two small silver-white crystal spheres in his hands were very similar in shape to human eyeballs.

Recalling the descriptions of fusing soul bones that he had read in books, Lin Ye placed the wooden box on his lap, then slowly raised the two crystal spheres with his left and right hands and held them before his eyes.

Although an External Soul Bone was not a soul bone in the conventional sense, since his father's letter had said that External Soul Bones were a special type of soul bone, the method for fusing soul bones should surely work on them as well.

"The method of fusing a soul bone is to inject Soul Power into it. Once Soul Power is injected, the soul bone enters a special state in which it can be fused. As long as the soul bone is placed against the corresponding part of the body, it will fuse into that part..."

As Lin Ye recalled this, he infused the Nine Yang True Qi within him into the two External Soul Bones in his hands.

As the Nine Yang True Qi entered them, Lin Ye immediately felt the two External Soul Bones in his hands begin to grow warm.

It was not a scalding heat, but a gentle, cozy warmth.

It felt as though the two External Soul Bones in his hands might melt at any moment and enter his body.

When Lin Ye brought the two External Soul Bones in his hands close to his eyes, as though sensing something, they immediately merged into his eyes.

In an instant, Lin Ye felt two streams of warmth rush into his eyeballs. Then a cool sensation suddenly followed, and he reflexively closed his eyes.

When Lin Ye opened his eyes again, everything before him had changed!

Previously, his entire field of vision had been pitch-black.

Though clear moonlight fell from the sky, everything had still been dim and indistinct.

But after fusing with the External Soul Bone: Double Pupils, everything before Lin Ye became bright, as if he were standing in broad daylight.

Moreover, Lin Ye's vision had improved enormously. Even the delicate veins on leaves several meters away were clearly visible to him.

And beyond that, whenever Lin Ye focused his attention, he could feel the movements of objects within his sight slow down.

Whether it was falling leaves, insects fluttering through the air, or unknown soul beasts darting past in the distance...

The feeling was incredibly strange, though it consumed quite a bit of True Qi...

Feeling the remaining Soul Power in his body, Lin Ye frowned.

After activating the External Soul Bone: Double Pupils, the world before him did seem much clearer, but Lin Ye could also feel his Nine Yang True Qi being rapidly depleted. In just around ten seconds, nearly one percent of his Nine Yang True Qi had been consumed.

By that calculation, if he used the Double Pupils in battle, he could probably only maintain them for a little over ten minutes.

A little over ten minutes might sound like quite a long time at first.

But in battle, the External Soul Bone: Double Pupils would not be the only thing consuming Nine Yang True Qi. Enhancing his body also consumed Nine Yang True Qi, as did activating soul skills and maintaining his Martial Soul.

If he did not use the Xuanyuan Sword Martial Soul, his Nine Yang True Qi would probably be barely sufficient.

But if he used the Xuanyuan Sword Martial Soul, then the consumption of Nine Yang True Qi in Lin Ye's body might become rather tight.

Still, after thinking it over, Lin Ye relaxed.

Although the External Soul Bone: Double Pupils consumed a great deal of True Qi, its usefulness in battle was equally obvious.

Not to mention anything else, the Bullet Time ability after activating the External Soul Bone: Double Pupils could slow the movements of enemies within his field of vision. This would be immensely useful to the Nine Swords of Dugu, which already excelled at countering moves as they came. Then there was its Illusion Break ability, which would make Lin Ye even more unstoppable and prevent him from being restricted.

With the help of the External Soul Bone: Double Pupils, his combat ability would definitely improve tremendously!

If he still could not defeat an enemy after activating the External Soul Bone: Double Pupils for ten minutes, then he should just run. Why stay behind any longer? With that thought, Lin Ye gained a clear understanding of how to use the External Soul Bone: Double Pupils.

He stopped activating the External Soul Bone: Double Pupils, and everything before him returned to its normal visual state.

After fusing with the External Soul Bone: Double Pupils, Lin Ye took out the three Titled Douluo Experience Cards from the wooden box. He cut his finger with his sword and dripped three drops of blood onto the three golden crystal cards, acknowledging them as his masters.

After acknowledging them, Lin Ye could feel his consciousness linking with the three cards. It seemed that with a single thought, he could activate their power and instantly possess the strength of a Rank 99 Titled Douluo! But Lin Ye still restrained himself.

Taking a deep breath, Lin Ye calmed himself and looked up at the sky.

In the pitch-black night, the Full Moon hung high overhead, and the stars shone brilliantly.

According to the records in Grandmaster's notes, absorbing a soul ring was supposed to take several hours.

But perhaps because Lin Ye's physical condition was stronger, absorbing the soul ring of the Emerald Aurora Bird had taken him less than two hours.

Dawn was still far away, but the night had already grown deep.

It was getting late. It was time to sleep. He would leave tomorrow.

Looking at the night sky, Lin Ye thought to himself.

After storing the three Titled Douluo Experience Cards back in the Jade Pendant Space, Lin Ye adjusted his posture and leaned against the large tree, preparing to rest his eyes for a while.

After all, he had spent the entire afternoon searching for soul beasts, and after absorbing the soul ring and dealing with everything else, Lin Ye was somewhat tired.

But just as Lin Ye was about to rest.

A sound like muffled thunder suddenly erupted in the distance, followed by the rustling of swaying trees.

The sudden, enormous disturbance jolted Lin Ye awake from his light rest.

He abruptly opened his eyes and sprang up from the tree. Using the Phoenix Dance Six Illusions movement technique, he crossed branch after branch in the blink of an eye, reaching the treetop and gazing into the distance.

Standing atop the tree, Lin Ye looked far away. After activating the External Soul Bone: Double Pupils,

Lin Ye clearly saw thick yellow mist spreading through a patch of forest several thousand meters away.

Within the mist, two indistinct figures were being pursued by a long, green shadow.

"That's..."

Upon seeing the two figures, Lin Ye immediately thought of Grandmaster and Tang San.

Though the distance was too great for him to see clearly whether they were truly Grandmaster and Tang San,

as long as there was even the slightest possibility, Lin Ye had to hurry over.

First, he needed to repay the favor of Grandmaster's notes and put his own mind at ease.

Second, even if it was not them, Old Jack had often said that saving a life was better than building a seven-story pagoda.

Besides, Lin Ye could roam freely through the Soul Hunting Forest. Saving someone's life, even if they were strangers, and forming a good connection could not possibly be wrong!

With that thought, Lin Ye immediately activated the Phoenix Dance Six Illusions movement technique, racing across the crowns of the trees toward the source of the distant disturbance.
