Chapter 45: Two Fate Soul Skills
“After the Golden Armor explodes and is ignited by Spiritual Power into a Spear of Light, the defense provided by the Golden Armor disappears, while the overall attack power increases by five hundred percent!”
“The Spear of Light can exist as a weapon for a long time.
“It can also be guided and compressed by Spiritual Power to enter a critical state, allowing it to be thrown for ranged attacks.”
“During flight, the Spear of Light will continuously absorb Heaven and Earth Origin Energy and elements to expand itself until it becomes a torrent that pierces the enemy.”
He felt the soul skill information transmitted from that blood-red Soul Ring.
Huo Yuhao’s mouth twitched slightly. Golden Armor plus Sun Wheel Spear—this wasn’t exactly Karna?
And the final ultimate move, wasn’t that the Douluo Continent localized version of “Sun Wheel, obey death”?
Only offense, no defense, damage unknown.
If you say it’s unreasonable, the soul skill can indeed be linked to the Golden Tortoise.
But if you say it’s reasonable, these two soul skills almost perfectly match the Noble Phantasm from Huo Yuhao’s previous life’s memory.
Actually, regarding soul skills, Huo Yuhao has always had a conjecture. He repeatedly read that Compendium of Soul Beast Soul Skills and discovered that soul skills depend on three parts.
Soul Beast, Martial Soul, Human Will.
Among them, the Soul Beast part is greater than the Martial Soul part, which is greater than the Human Will part.
The books do clearly record cases where Human Will distorted soul skill effects, but no matter how soul skills are distorted, their effects absolutely cannot detach from the characteristics of the Soul Beast and Martial Soul themselves.
It must be an extension of the Soul Beast’s innate abilities combined with the Soul Master’s Martial Soul.
Huo Yuhao roughly sensed his Soul Power Level inside his body; due to the Golden Tortoise’s sacrifice, he had already reached Level Twenty-Five.
Theoretically, the Golden Tortoise’s sacrifice should have taken him directly to Level Thirty.
But to preserve the Golden Tortoise’s consciousness, the vast majority of its Spiritual Origin was sealed into Huo Yuhao’s Sea of Consciousness.
The Heavenly Dream Ice Silkworm hoped these Origins could help Huo Yuhao pass through the most difficult process from Level Ninety-Five to Level Ninety-Nine, or even breaking through Level One Hundred.
Overall, though, Huo Yuhao was very satisfied with his Second Soul Skill.
This soul skill is his first percentage-based soul skill so far, and it perfectly compensates for his lack of ranged capabilities.
Just thinking about his skill pool, Huo Yuhao could come up with a bunch of disgusting playstyles.
Pairing Sun Wheel Spear with Amatsuyahishiya’s sure-hit turns him directly into a nuclear sword immortal, performing terrifying arrow pulls.
When the enemy finally gets into close combat with Huo Yuhao, they’ll dodge the Remnant Dream Blade’s erasure on one side while struggling to break the Golden Armor’s defense.
Only to discover that beneath Huo Yuhao’s Golden Armor is a layer of Kamui Phasing.
The enemy will probably laugh themselves silly mid-fight.
Huo Yuhao’s current self-assessment is full of mechanical elegance.
The stats haven’t fully come online yet due to his Soul Power Level, but in the short term, they can be compensated by Tian Meng and the Golden Tortoise’s Origins.
After receiving the soul skill information, the Shadow Cat controlled the surrounding airflow and slowly brought the Golden Tortoise Skull in front of Huo Yuhao.
The kitty is just a Hundred-Year Soul Beast and doesn’t know what a Soul Bone is, but it knows this dark golden bone is very precious.
Precious things must be given priority to the Master and not taken by other bad things.
Huo Yuhao was stunned for a moment, then smiled and patted the Shadow Cat squatting beside him watching him.
“As expected of a luxury cat. I didn’t raise you for nothing this time.”
The spot the Golden Tortoise chose was very remote, surrounded entirely by Ten-Year Soul Beasts, without a single Hundred-Year one in sight.
This old tortoise has been extremely cowardly ever since being scared by Di Tian at the Lake of Life, fleeing all the way to the most remote part of the Outer Ring, not even daring to go into the inner Outer Ring.
Afraid of being discovered by Di Tian’s senses, then having its Tortoise Shell dismantled to be used as a chamber pot.
So Huo Yuhao felt safe enough to perform the Soul Bone fusion right here. The Shadow Cat, as usual, began patrolling the surroundings, expelling all Soul Beasts.
If a strong enemy attacks, it will immediately wake Huo Yuhao and interrupt the fusion process.
Huo Yuhao sat cross-legged on the ground, looking at the dark golden Skull in front of him, and took a deep breath.
Based on how Huo Yuhao absorbed the four hundred thousand year Ice Jade Emperor Scorpion Torso Bone in the original work.
The Soul Bone fusion process for such a Fierce Beast is extremely painful, especially for a Skull.
After mentally preparing himself, Huo Yuhao pressed his forehead against the dark golden Skull.
In that instant, both erupted with a golden Light.
The two hundred thousand year Golden Tortoise Skull slowly turned into a liquid and merged into Huo Yuhao’s body.
The liquid gently replaced Huo Yuhao’s Skull bit by bit.
The entire process had no pain at all; instead, his brain felt a sense of clarity.
Like a corporate drone who, after a tiring day, goes home, drinks a cup of warm milk, does twenty minutes of stretching, then goes to bed and sleeps soundly until waking naturally the next day.
Perhaps because Huo Yuhao’s compatibility with this Soul Bone was simply too good.
About half an hour later, the Soul Bone fully integrated into Huo Yuhao’s body.
The soul skill recorded in the Soul Bone also appeared in Huo Yuhao’s brain.
Just as the Golden Tortoise said, it was a soul skill related to Fate!
And there were two!
“Skull First Soul Skill: Epitaph: Fate conserves secrets, the world veils the future.”
“After activating Epitaph, you can see events that will happen within the next 10 seconds through the fate line.”
“At the same time, it veils the observed fate, preventing others from observing it, allowing the user to change the observed fate. Low Soul Power Consumption.”
“Skull Second Soul Skill Black Dice: Fate is merciless, yet it has preferences.”
“Causes the enemy to fall into misfortune. If the target’s Soul Power Level is higher than the user’s, the misfortune duration shortens, but it will never be less than 3 seconds.”
Huo Yuhao slowly opened his eyes, his starry Eyes covered in a layer of rose gold Light.
Everything that would happen to the Shadow Cat in the next ten seconds was in his mind. If Huo Yuhao doesn’t interfere, the Shadow Cat will proceed along this fate line.
“Worthy of Fate, unfathomably strange.”
Only by personally feeling the torrent of Fate can one understand that this power is absolutely not something the brain can calculate.
That is Rules, the underlying logic.
If the Tang God King really wants to orchestrate Fate, then let him await Fate’s retribution.
Huo Yuhao patted his body, shaking off the fallen leaves, and prepared to leave the Star Dou Great Forest.
For the Life Gold, he planned to return to Enthusiasm Headquarters and have Elder Ilex help him fuse it.
Fusing such a large piece of Life Gold might let Di Tian sense it.
He is still very sensitive to the aura of Life Gold, after all, having stayed at the Lake of Life for hundreds of thousands of years.
“Kamui!”
Huo Yuhao’s body began to Twist, then he was sucked into a space vortex and disappeared from this Forest.
At the same time, in the Star Dou Great Forest Core Area, a three-meter-long, eight-chi-tall three-eyed Soul Beast with golden fur and dragon-like claws suddenly opened its golden Eyes.
A black-robed man with long black hair and two signature golden streaks dyed on his forehead came to its side and looked at it gently, saying:
“Little one, what’s wrong?”
The Three-Eyed Golden Lion doubtfully held its head and lay on the ground, letting out a crisp female voice: “So strange!”
“Fate is attracting me, telling me to search for something?”
“It feels so uncomfortable………”
A hazy human figure suddenly appeared in the Three-Eyed Golden Lion’s mind.
Huo Yuhao had just emerged from the Kamui Space at this moment, his feet not yet touching the ground.
He once again felt that voice, suspected to be the Plane Consciousness, urging him to head to the Dream Doorway.
