White Tiger Mountain-Shaking Charge vs. Immovable Bright King Body

Bang!

Thud, thud, thud, thud...!! Although Dai Mubai had called out a warning when he charged, the fully charged White Tiger Mountain-Shaking Charge struck with tremendous force and was also incredibly fast.

Zhao Wuji, struck head-on, was still knocked off balance, even though he had activated Martial Soul Possession beforehand and used his first defensive Soul Skill, Immovable Bright King Body.

He took a full five steps back before finally stopping.

"Cough, cough... Good kid, that charging Soul Skill of yours is really a little terrifying." Zhao Wuji patted his chest and coughed twice, marveling as he caught his breath.

One should not think it was nothing special just because Dai Mubai's charged strike had only forced Zhao Wuji back five steps.

Dai Mubai was only a level 32 Soul Elder, while Zhao Wuji was a level 76 Seven-Ring Soul Sage-

And the Great Strength Vajra Bear was already renowned for its strength and defense.

The fact that Dai Mubai's first Soul Skill, White Tiger Mountain-Shaking Charge, could force Zhao Wuji back five steps with ordinary Martial Soul Possession alone was enough to prove its strength.

Let alone the fact that Zhao Wuji had also used the defensive Soul Skill Immovable Bright King Body just now.

That Dai Mubai could still force Zhao Wuji back five steps in that state showed how powerful his White Tiger Mountain-Shaking Charge Soul Skill was.

Even if Zhao Wuji had been slightly distracted just now.

"Mubai, did this purple Thousand-Year First Soul Ring give... give you two Soul Skills?!"

Zhao Wuji was shocked by the formidable power of White Tiger Mountain-Shaking Charge.

Flender, standing beside him, was more astonished that this Thousand-Year First Soul Ring had actually given Dai Mubai two Soul Skills: White Tiger Heavenly Dipper Defense and White Tiger Mountain-Shaking Charge.

"Yes, the First Soul Ring really did give me two Soul Skills. I didn't expect that at first either."

Dai Mubai did not hide anything in response to Flender's question. After all, Flender and Zhao Wuji were both trusted allies.

But although he had frankly told the two men, without holding anything back, that his First Soul Ring possessed two Soul Skills,

Dai Mubai had not revealed the External Soul Bone, Heavenly Dipper Vertical Eye, or the two Soul Bone Skills, Spiritual Detection and Spiritual Sharing.

It was not that he did not trust the two men.

It was just that an External Soul Bone was far too precious, and the human heart was hard to fathom. Even if Flender and Zhao Wuji harbored no ill intentions,

Simply revealing a secret to more people would itself increase the risk of that secret being exposed, which was something he did not want to see.

Besides, Dai Mubai was accustomed to holding something back when it came to anything concerning himself. He did not want to expose everything.

That had been true of his Twin Martial Souls and god-level Second Martial Soul before, and it was equally true of his External Soul Bone, Heavenly Dipper Vertical Eye, now.

"One Soul Ring actually produced two Soul Skills. Was it because of the Martial Soul Mutation, or was it something special about attaching a Thousand-Year First Soul Ring?"

Confronted with Dai Mubai's situation, Flender could not tell why for the moment. After all, attaching a purple thousand-year Soul Ring as one's First Soul Ring had never happened before in the Soul Master World.

For the moment, Flender could only attribute it to Dai Mubai's Martial Soul Mutation and some special property of attaching a Thousand-Year First Soul Ring.

Dai Mubai did not explain much more. One lie needed many more lies to cover it up, so as long as Flender could imagine a reason that satisfied himself, there was no need for Dai Mubai to expend the effort.

"Dean, Teacher Zhao, absorbing the Heavenly Dipper Bug's Soul Ring earlier took some physical and mental effort, and my Soul Power grew a little too quickly after I absorbed it.

"I'll regulate my breathing and meditate first, recover my strength and spirit, and stabilize and consolidate my Soul Power cultivation a little. Then I'll absorb the Holy Light Tiger's Soul Ring," Dai Mubai said.

"All right, regulate your breathing and recover first. Old Zhao and I will continue to stand guard for you." Flender nodded.

Flender had already placed great importance on Dai Mubai after his Martial Soul had successfully undergone a beneficial mutation.

Now that Dai Mubai had successfully attached a purple Thousand-Year First Soul Ring and accomplished this earth-shaking feat, Flender valued him even more.

He regarded him entirely as Shrek Academy's precious treasure.

Dai Mubai did not stand on ceremony. He immediately sat upright, cross-legged on the spot, and circulated his family's inherited top-tier Soul Power meditation technique, the White Tiger Meditation Method.

He began directing his Soul Power through the meridians throughout his body.

In this way, he could consolidate and stabilize his Soul Power cultivation. At the same time, the Soul Power flowing throughout his body could widen his meridians, nourish and temper his body, and strengthen his physique.

After spending half a day at it, Dai Mubai felt that he could control his greatly increased Soul Power as easily as moving his own arms and fingers.

At the same time, the effects of circulating Soul Power to widen his meridians and nourish and strengthen his body became less noticeable.

Only then did Dai Mubai stop.

He drank some water and ate some dry rations, along with the Soul Beast meat Zhao Wuji had roasted.

Then, holding a dagger, he finished off the Holy Light Tiger, which Zhao Wuji had knocked unconscious and which was unable to resist, and began absorbing his Second Soul Ring.

"Old Zhao, put out the fire, then stand guard for Mubai."

"All right," Zhao Wuji replied. He immediately pressed a palm down to extinguish the roasting fire, then stood watch.

Dai Mubai raised a hand and beckoned. The purple Thousand-Year Soul Ring that had risen from the Holy Light Tiger's corpse and was floating in the air above it immediately flew toward him and settled directly around him.

The Heavenly Dipper Bug's Soul Ring, which was only 2,643 years old, had been a pale purple.

This Holy Light Tiger was over six thousand years old, and the purple Thousand-Year Soul Ring it produced was much brighter and deeper in color than the Heavenly Dipper Bug's-

After the Soul Ring settled around Dai Mubai and the Soul Power within it poured into his body, he could clearly feel that the Soul Power in the Holy Light Tiger's Soul Ring was more vast and violent.

However, Dai Mubai's Soul Power cultivation and physique had improved, and his body's capacity to endure had likewise increased greatly.

As this vast, violent Soul Power poured into his body, it gave Dai Mubai an uncomfortable feeling of being stretched full. Overall, however, it was still within the range his body could bear and had not exceeded its limit.

Having already absorbed and refined a Soul Ring once, Dai Mubai had become more familiar with the process.

Once he began circulating the White Tiger Meditation Method, everything that followed went incomparably smoothly.

Absorbing and refining the Holy Light Tiger's six-thousand-plus-year Soul Ring took much longer than absorbing the Heavenly Dipper Bug's two-thousand-plus-year Soul Ring before.

Absorbing the Heavenly Dipper Bug's Soul Ring had taken one day, while absorbing and refining the Holy Light Tiger's Soul Ring took nearly two days.

The process of absorbing and refining the Holy Light Tiger's Soul Ring went incomparably smoothly, without the slightest pressure or obstruction.

But although he had successfully absorbed and refined the Holy Light Tiger's Soul Ring, Dai Mubai did not feel all that happy.

Even by the time he had finished absorbing the Holy Light Tiger's Soul Ring, he had not seen the Demonic Weapon Tiger Soul Martial Soul release that special power of devouring.

As a result, after he finished absorbing and refining the Holy Light Tiger's Soul Ring,

He had only obtained the usual single Soul Skill. He had not obtained two Soul Skills, much less a Soul Bone or an External Soul Bone.

Dai Mubai felt a little regretful about that.

"How did it go, Mubai? Did you succeed?"

"How many Soul Skills did you get this time? What are they, and how powerful are they?"

"Want me, Old Zhao, to test the power of your Soul Skills for you?"
