But what kind of experience did Poison Immortal have? As a Super Douluo, his keen perception far exceeded that of ordinary people. Even without discovering any intuitive changes, he sensed something was wrong in an instant.
He subconsciously spread his mental force outward, but the mental force that could easily cover the entire Sun Moon Imperial Palace was now firmly imprisoned as if by an invisible barrier.
No matter how he tried, it could only be confined within the small courtyard of the Eastern Palace, unable to extend outward even an inch.
This was the only change brought by Xu Tianhao's Fourth Spirit Skill, yet it was enough to cause stormy waves in Poison Immortal's heart!
One must know that he was a powerhouse at the Super Douluo level. His mental force was so strong that let alone covering the imperial palace, even shrouding more than half of Bright Capital would be no problem.
But now it was forcibly restricted to the range of the Eastern Palace. This method had already exceeded the scope of ordinary restriction-type Spirit Abilities!
Xu Tianran, who was by his side, also noticed the abnormality. As an eight-ring Spirit Douluo, although his mental force was far inferior to Poison Immortal's, it still far exceeded that of ordinary Spirit Masters of the same level.
At this moment, he also clearly felt his mental force being bound by an invisible force, unable to leave the Eastern Palace by even half a step.
Poison Immortal's eyebrows twitched slightly, his voice carrying a hint of gravity and curiosity: "What kind of Spirit Ability is this? Is it a large-scale restriction-type Spirit Ability, or a rare Domain-type Spirit Ability?"
Seeing this, Xu Tianhao knew that the two had already noticed the preliminary effects of the Spirit Ability. He no longer hid it and fully activated his vast mental force.
In the next moment, an eerie and shocking scene occurred.
The Crown Prince's Eastern Palace where everyone was located began to change at a speed visible to the naked eye; the Eastern Palace turned into Haoyu Palace.
The clear tea and tea set on the stone table vanished instantly, replaced by steaming, fragrant barbecue. Even the floral scent in the air turned into the fresh aroma of grilled meat.
The surrounding scenes, touches, smells—everything was realistic to the extreme, without any illusory flaws.
It was as if they were originally in Xu Tianhao's Haoyu Palace, rather than the Crown Prince's Eastern Palace.
This sudden change of scene caused the always calm Xu Tianran and the well-traveled Poison Immortal to widen their eyes simultaneously, their faces filled with shock.
An illusion?
At first, this thought flashed through both their minds, but it was dismissed by them in an instant.
If it were an ordinary illusion, with Poison Immortal's mental force, he could easily break it in a single moment.
Even if it were a top-tier mental-type illusion Spirit Ability, there would be mental force fluctuations when it was cast, which would not escape his perception.
But Xu Tianhao's Spirit Ability was activated silently, without any traces of mental force leakage.
The constructed scene was even more impeccably realistic; touch, taste, and vision were all flawless, simply incomparable to an illusion!
After letting the two personally experience the wonder and reality of the moon reading space,
Xu Tianhao then slowly withdrew the Spirit Ability. The surrounding scene instantly returned to its original state, back to the elegant courtyard of the Crown Prince's Eastern Palace.
Looking at Xu Tianran and Poison Immortal, who were still full of shock, he spoke slowly, explaining all the effects of the moon reading space in detail.
From the distortion of time flow to the construction of the mental World, from the immersive cultivation environment to the absolute confinement of the mental Domain...
...and then to the terrifying ability to simulate any scene and even reshape perception, every sentence of Xu Tianhao's explanation was like a heavy hammer, smashing hard into the hearts of Xu Tianran and Poison Immortal.
Once Xu Tianhao finished his explanation, Poison Immortal and Xu Tianran's shock had reached its peak, leaving them speechless for a long time.
Such a heaven-defying ability was merely a Ten Thousand Year Soul Skill?
While Ten Thousand Year Soul Skills were certainly powerful, looking at the entire history of the Douluo Continent, there had never been a single Ten Thousand Year Soul Skill that could reach such a terrifying height!
With various heaven-defying effects integrated into one, this was no longer an ordinary Spirit Ability, but an existence that could be called a Divine Skill!
Poison Immortal's heart was in turmoil. He could even foresee what a terrifying existence Xu Tianhao would become in the future after he grew up.
If he broke through to the Titled Douluo level, or even the Limit Douluo level standing at the peak of the continent, to what extent would the power of the moon reading space be magnified?
By then, with Xu Tianhao's mental force, perhaps no one in the entire Sun Moon Empire, or even the entire Douluo Continent, would be able to contend with him!
It was even no exaggeration to say that when Xu Tianhao reached the Limit Douluo level, with just this moon reading space, he alone would be enough to wipe out a nation!
Such a realistic mental World could silently pull anyone into it.
And within the space, he would be the absolute master, able to freely manipulate time, scenes, and even a person's life and perception.
This was the gap in vision and perception.
In the eyes of Xu Tianzhen and Xu Tianhao's little companions, this moon reading space was just an invincible combat tool at the same level,
a heaven-defying cheat that could accelerate cultivation, allowing them to stand out among their peers.
But in Xu Tianran's eyes, this was not a simple Spirit Ability at all, but a strategic-level Divine Skill capable of changing the landscape of a nation!
Xu Tianran's heart beat wildly, his eyes flashing with a burning light.
He knew the value of this Spirit Ability all too well.
If Xu Tianhao's strength were great enough, he could silently pull the monarchs, ministers, and even the entire army of an enemy nation into the moon reading space.
In this absolutely controlled mental World, he could let a person experience a full lifetime, live through a completely different life trajectory, and subtly reshape their worldview, making them submit to the Sun Moon Empire from the bottom of their hearts.
Without expending a single soldier or shedding a drop of blood, he could annex a country without a fight, making the entire continent crawl at the feet of the Sun Moon Empire.
This ability was far more terrifying than thousands of troops and horses, far more lethal than any Spirit Master legion!
Of course, to achieve this step, Xu Tianhao must possess strong enough strength and sufficiently profound mental force; otherwise, everything would just be a fantasy.
But with Xu Tianhao's talent, with his current heaven-defying spirit ring configuration of three purples and one black, and with this miraculous Fourth Spirit Skill,
would it be impossible for him to reach the summit of Titled Douluo or even Limit Douluo in the future?
The answer was certain.
Xu Tianhao had this ability, and it was a sure thing!
Thinking of this, Xu Tianran could no longer suppress the excitement and agitation in his heart. His gaze toward Xu Tianhao was full of pride and expectation.
This younger brother of his would be the Sun Moon Empire's sharpest sword and strongest shield in the future.
He would lead the Sun Moon Empire toward unprecedented glory, becoming the true ruler of the entire Douluo Continent!
This was the difference in vision and scope; seeing the essence of things would be different.
It could be said that the effect of Xu Tianhao's Fourth Spirit Skill made Xu Tianran even more excited than his own successful acquisition of a hundred-thousand-year eighth soul ring this time!
Becoming stronger was his ambition and talent, but unifying Douluo and letting the Light of the Sun and Moon shroud the Douluo Continent was his ultimate dream!
Needless to say for Poison Immortal, he felt that the most correct decision he had made in his life was taking Xu Tianhao as his disciple.
So the stronger Xu Tianhao became, the happier and prouder Poison Immortal felt.
