Chapter 117 Soul Bone Skill: Pressure Resistance
Seeing this, Wu Heyi did not hesitate to press his advantage and continued to immerse himself in cultivation without stopping.
To everyone's astonishment, in just thirty minutes, his cultivation level, as if aided by a god, broke through the level 40 barrier and ascended to the peak of the Soul Venerable level!
However, as the saying goes, things reach their extremes and then reverse. Just as his cultivation level was rising steadily, the rate of increase began to slow down, becoming slower and slower until it was almost visible to the naked eye.
Nevertheless, under such an extremely harsh environment of ten times the gravity, the excess life energy and soul power did not stop there. Instead, they went berserk and bombarded Wu Heyi's body with round after round of tempering.
Not long after, his pores opened wide, and a large amount of dark waste gushed out of his body like a flood bursting its banks.
After another long hour and a half, Wu Heyi was completely unrecognizable, covered from head to toe in a thick layer of mud, turning into a veritable "mud man".
Even in such a wretched state, his cultivation had reached its limit, and even his physique had undergone a complete transformation, making him comparable to a ten-thousand-year-old soul beast!
Wu Heyi paid no attention to the gazes of others and calmly approached the crystal-clear lake in front of Daming.
He quickly removed his slightly soiled and smelly clothes, then stepped into the lake without hesitation. The cool lake water gently enveloped his body, like a mother's soft caress, making him feel incredibly comfortable and at ease.
Wu Heyi thoroughly enjoyed this rare moment of refreshment, scrubbing his body vigorously to wash away the grime that had accumulated over the past few days.
After washing up, he took out a clean and tidy set of clothes from his bag and carefully put them on.
When he stood still by the lake, he seemed to have been reborn, his steps became lighter, as if a heavy burden had been lifted from his shoulders.
"It would be perfect if I could find a soul beast that suits me!"
Wu Heyi couldn't help but mutter softly, and although his voice was very low, it still reached the ears of Da Ming, who was not far away.
Upon hearing this, Da Ming frowned slightly, secretly thinking to himself that this guy was truly insatiable.
However, considering that Xiao Wu had clearly stated that Wu Heyi was their friend and had even promised to give him that 'cute' little pet as an apology, Da Ming was too lazy to argue with Wu Heyi anymore.
Just as the two were pondering their own thoughts, something unexpected happened—a sickly-looking, lifeless Frosthound staggered into Wu Heyi's presence.
The Frosthound's fur was disheveled, its eyes were dull and lifeless, and it walked with a stagger, looking as if it might collapse at any moment.
However, this seemingly pitiful soul beast caused Wu Heyi's face to instantly bloom with uncontrollable ecstasy!
Wu Heyi casually turned his head slightly and glanced at Da Ming out of the corner of his eye.
In that instant, a startling scene unfolded—Da Ming's head, like a leaf swept away by a raging wind, swiftly and abruptly tilted to one side!
His expression was extremely cold, displaying a haughty attitude that completely ignored all of Wu Heyi's actions.
Faced with the Ming Dynasty's blatant disdain and deliberate indifference, Wu Heyi felt a surge of anger, but he quickly regained his composure.
Since the other party has made it clear that they want to turn a blind eye, why should I bother with any more formalities with such a person?
With that thought, Wu Heyi calmly reached into the backpack on his back, his movements elegant and fluid, as if he were performing a meticulously choreographed show.
As Wu Heyi slowly withdrew his hand, everyone's eyes involuntarily focused on the object he held in his hand—a pistol that gleamed with a cold, sharp light!
Wu Heyi held the pistol in one hand, his index finger lightly resting on the trigger, and then pulled it with a slight, unhesitating pull...
Suddenly, a deafening "bang" rang out!
The deafening roar was like a thunderclap from the heavens, instantly shattering the silence of the sky and echoing across the entire Lake of Life.
At the same time, a bullet the size of a peanut shot out at lightning speed, heading straight for the ferocious Frosthound not far away.
In the blink of an eye, the tiny bullet, like a bolt of lightning, with unparalleled power and precision, pierced the Frosthound's head without any deviation.
In an instant, blood splattered everywhere, and brains burst open. The once majestic and invincible Frosthound didn't even have time to let out a scream before collapsing to the ground, lifeless.
Just half a minute ago, this Frosthound was arrogant and overbearing, thinking it was just there to be a sparring partner.
However, to its utter surprise, the wheel of fate turned so quickly that in the blink of an eye, its life came to an end in an extremely tragic way—it fell into a shocking pool of blood.
As the Frosthound's massive body crashed to the ground, a jet-black spirit ring rose slowly from its corpse like a ghost.
Wu Heyi's sharp eyes caught this scene, and a look of undisguised surprise flashed across his face.
He waved his arm lightly, as if casting some kind of mysterious spell.
In an instant, the spirit ring that was originally suspended in the air seemed to be pulled by an invisible force and flew straight toward Wu Heyi.
The moment the spirit ring touched Wu Heyi's body, it did not bring the intense pain and discomfort that people had imagined.
On the contrary, Wu Heyi felt a strange and gentle energy continuously flowing into his body at this moment.
Perhaps it was precisely because of the unusually rich life energy here that Wu Heyi did not suffer even the slightest pain or torment during the entire process of absorbing the spirit ring. He even faintly sensed an indescribable feeling of liberation and an unprecedented sense of ease within the spirit ring.
Time flies, and the two short hours passed in the blink of an eye.
What's truly astonishing is that, during this period, Wu Heyi had already smoothly completed the absorption of the entire spirit ring.
Just as he was about to take a short rest, he suddenly caught a glimpse of something faintly glowing beside the corpse of the Frosthound. Upon closer inspection, he realized it was a right leg bone spirit bone emanating a faint chill!
After a careful examination, Wu Heyi was shocked to discover that this soul bone actually contained powerful soul power that had been stored for over 100,000 years!
Faced with such a precious and rare treasure, Wu Heyi did not hesitate at all, decisively reached out and picked it up, and immediately began the process of refining and absorbing it.
The soul skill brought by this right leg bone is unique and extraordinary.
It has a simple and direct name – “anti-stress”.
However, when people delve deeper into its effects, they discover its astonishing aspects.
Whenever the opponent launches a fierce attack, the seemingly fragile shield will rapidly thicken and become stronger, as if it has a life of its own.
What's even more amazing is that this shield can cleverly reflect 25% of the opponent's attack power back, dealing a heavy blow to the enemy.
This unique ability allows Wu Heyi to often turn danger into safety when facing powerful enemies, and to cause unexpected trouble for them.
Even Wu Heyi himself was initially incredulous and extremely surprised by the appearance of this soul skill.
But with his extraordinary talent and keen insight, he quickly understood the secrets behind this soul skill, mastered its correct usage, and the reason for its magical effect.
Thinking of this, Wu Heyi's lips curled up slightly, revealing a barely perceptible smile. But in an instant, a complex emotion welled up in his heart.
Although this soul skill is incredibly powerful, in certain scenarios of actual use, its methods may appear too cruel and ruthless.
After everything was ready, Wu Heyi carefully embedded the spirit ring into the metal elemental array eye, following the usual procedures.
In an instant, light flashed, and a mysterious power surged within him.
As this power gradually merged and stabilized, Wu Heyi was finally able to summon the Snow Mastiff Armor he had always dreamed of.
At the same time, something even more surprising happened—after absorbing this precious soul ring, his own basic cultivation level actually broke through again, but only by two whole levels!
