Chapter 9: Limbs Regenerated, Immortal and Indestructible! Liu Yuan's Second Soul Skill.
"It's a success!"
Seeing the two rhythmic soul rings, one yellow and one purple, at Liu Yuan's feet, Tang Ya couldn't help but exclaim in surprise.
"It really absorbed successfully! The second ring of the millennium! This physical condition is amazing!"
Beibei's eyes lit up, and she nodded slightly, her eyes revealing a hint of appreciation: "Indeed rare."
"Generally speaking, the age of a Soul Master's second Soul Ring is usually around seven hundred years. To cross the threshold of a thousand years, one needs extremely strong physical qualities."
"The fact that Liu Yuan was able to do this is enough to prove his extraordinary nature."
"I wonder what kind of soul skill he'll gain after absorbing this monstrous soul spider?" Tang Ya rested her chin on her hand, looking on with curiosity. "Although the soul spider's ability is rebirth, soul skills generally still change depending on the soul master's martial soul..."
Huo Yuhao, standing to the side, remained silent, simply watching the spirited young man before him.
Although Liu Yuan's clothes were still somewhat tattered, his entire demeanor had undergone a dramatic transformation.
The two soul rings, one yellow and one purple, complemented each other, making his figure appear as upright as a pine tree.
Huo Yuhao subconsciously touched his chest, a feeling of indescribable bitterness and envy welling up inside him.
"Liu Yuan and I are about the same age... but he's already a Great Soul Master with a thousand-year soul ring. And me..."
Huo Yuhao lowered his head, his heart filled with mixed emotions.
"well..."
Within the sea of consciousness, Tianmeng Ice Silkworm also let out a long sigh, its plump body churning within, its face filled with regret.
"Stop looking, stop looking! It's making me more and more heartbroken. This kid was born to inherit my mantle! His mental strength is incredible, his physical body is invincible... If I could do it all over again, I would definitely protect him to the death!"
Just as the man and the insect were each lost in their own thoughts, Liu Yuan in front of them finally completely withdrew from his cultivation state.
He slowly opened his eyes.
Buzz—!
For a moment, the air seemed to freeze.
Bei Bei, Tang Ya, and even Huo Yuhao, in the instant they inadvertently met Liu Yuan's newly opened double pupils, all experienced a strong sense of dizziness at the same time!
The feeling was like being hit hard on the back of the head with a sledgehammer; you were instantly dazed and couldn't even stand up straight.
"Hmm..."
Tang Ya swayed and almost fell, but fortunately Bei Bei caught her in time.
But Beibei herself wasn't feeling well either. She shook her head violently, her refined face filled with horror: "Such a strong mental fluctuation! Just a glance... and it can make me feel this dizzy?"
Huo Yuhao plopped down on the ground, his face pale and his bright eyes filled with terror: "Brother Tianmeng! What... what happened? My head is so dizzy..."
"Nonsense! That kid's spiritual power just surged after absorbing the spirit ring, and it hasn't fully subsided yet!"
Tianmeng Bingcan explained irritably, her tone thick with jealousy.
"His mental strength already far surpasses yours in quality, and now the quantity has also increased... If he intends to, a single mental attack could turn you into idiots if you're caught off guard!"
"This is too inhuman...it's really too inhuman..." Tianmeng Bingcan muttered to herself, "Brother is so heartbroken!"
At this moment, Liu Yuan also realized that something was wrong.
He quickly composed himself, slowly drawing his overflowing spiritual energy back into his body. The eerie light in his double pupils gradually faded, returning him to his usual appearance.
"Sorry, sorry, I just broke through and couldn't control myself."
Liu Yuan stood up, walked quickly to the crowd, and bowed apologetically, saying, "Thank you all for protecting me. I will remember this kindness."
"Brother Liu Yuan, you're too kind. Since we've already agreed, this is all we should do."
Beibei recovered, waved her hand, and then looked intently at Liu Yuan, asking the question everyone was concerned about, "How was it? You must have gained a lot from this adventure to absorb the thousand-year soul ring, right? What is your second soul skill?"
Upon hearing this, Tang Ya and Huo Yuhao immediately perked up their ears and looked at Liu Yuan with anticipation.
That's a thousand-year-old soul ring! And it was produced by that strange and powerful soul spider!
Upon hearing this, Liu Yuan did not answer directly, but instead closed his eyes and sensed it for a moment.
A moment later, he opened his eyes, a mysterious smile playing on his lips: "Indeed, I've gained a lot. However... this soul skill is a bit special, and it's hard to explain just by talking about it. I might need you all to help me test it out."
"Test? How do you test?" Tang Ya blinked her big eyes.
"Hmm..." Liu Yuan stroked his chin and looked at Bei Bei, "Big Brother Bei Bei, your attack power is the strongest. Why don't you try attacking me with all your might using your Thunder Dragon Claw?"
"What?!"
Beibei was startled by his words and waved her hands repeatedly, "Brother Liu Yuan, are you kidding me?"
"You know the power of my Thunder Dragon Claw. Even a thousand-year-old soul beast would be torn apart by a single blow. Although you have become stronger after absorbing a soul ring, you are still just a mortal. What if I lose control and hurt you?"
"Yes, Liu Yuan, don't do anything reckless!" Tang Ya hurriedly advised, "We can test the soul skills slowly, there's no need to risk your life!"
Liu Yuan shook his head helplessly: "But... if I don't get injured, I can't show this soul skill. Because it's a... recovery-type soul skill."
"Recovery class?"
Everyone was taken aback.
"That's right." Liu Yuan nodded. "Just like that Soul Spider. I want to test its limits."
"That won't do either!" Beibei refused decisively. "What if it fails? What if it can't be restored? That's too risky. I can't attack my companions."
Seeing Bei Bei's resolute attitude, Liu Yuan felt somewhat helpless. He could only say that Bei Bei was indeed a good person and had her own principles and bottom line in doing things.
but...
How can he know the upper limit of his soul skill if he doesn't test it himself?
"Since Brother Beibei is unwilling..."
Liu Yuan sighed, his gaze suddenly sharpening.
brush!
With a flick of his wrist, a sharp steel dagger instantly appeared in his hand.
This is the level one soul tool short sword he used to hunt soul beasts.
"Liu Yuan, what are you doing?!" Huo Yuhao exclaimed in surprise.
Before anyone could react...
Liu Yuan's eyes hardened, and without the slightest hesitation, the short knife in his hand transformed into a cold light, and he swung it down fiercely towards his left wrist!
Pfft!
Blood splattered!
"Ah!!!" Tang Ya screamed in fright and covered her eyes.
Bei Bei and Huo Yuhao's pupils contracted sharply, and their hearts seemed to skip a beat.
Liu Yuan's left hand was severed cleanly at the root! Bright red blood gushed out like a fountain, and the severed hand fell onto the grass, still twitching reflexively!
Ruthless!
This person is absolutely ruthless!
To test his soul skill, he actually chopped off his own hand without hesitation?!
"Liu Yuan! Are you crazy?!" Bei Bei roared, rushing over to help him stop the bleeding. "Quick! Yu Hao! Get some hemostatic medicine!"
"Don't rush."
Although Liu Yuan's face was somewhat pale, his expression was unusually calm, and he even had a faint smile on his face.
He raised the severed wrist, which was gushing blood, and looked calmly at Bebe: "Watch."
The next second.
"Second Soul Skill - Undying Body!"
Buzz—!
The deep purple thousand-year soul ring beneath Liu Yuan's feet suddenly lit up, emitting a dazzling light.
At the same time, gray-white and emerald green light intertwined in his double pupils, and an extremely rich life force burst forth instantly!
Then, a scene that everyone present would never forget unfolded.
Suddenly, countless tiny granulation tissues sprouted from Liu Yuan's severed wrist, which had been bleeding profusely.
These granulation tissues seemed to have a life of their own, wriggling, intertwining, and growing wildly!
Bones are being remodeled, meridians are being connected, flesh and blood are being filled, and skin is being covered!
In just two or three breaths!
A brand new, intact left hand just appeared out of thin air!
After seeing this scene before him.
Bei Bei, Tang Ya, and Huo Yuhao were dumbfounded once again!
How is that possible?
