Chapter 283 Six-Eyed Empty Blade
Chapter 283 Six-Eyed Empty Blade
With the miraculous help of the Water of Life, Archer finally and quickly recovered his physical and mental strength.
The Water of Life is an extremely precious thing, seemingly possessing magical power. Once it enters Archer's body, it's like a clear spring flowing into a parched desert, rapidly reviving his previously exhausted physical strength and listless spirit.
After two hours of arduous and painstaking refining, Archer finally succeeded in fully absorbing a 7-year-old soul ring into his body.
This is no easy task; it's like a long and arduous marathon, and only Archer himself knows the hardships involved.
The power contained in that spirit ring was immense. To completely tame it, Archer needed to guide it with complete concentration. Every wisp of spirit power that penetrated was a delicate game.
Before he knew it, Archer slowly opened his eyes, but as soon as he opened them, he saw more than a dozen pairs of eyes staring intently at him at very close range.
Archer was startled by the scene; he could sense that those gazes were filled with curiosity, worry, or anticipation.
Having just obtained his sixth spirit ring, he possesses an extremely high sensitivity to the concentration of spirit power.
However, at this moment, on this vast and boundless sea, how could such a high concentration of soul power appear? It's as unbelievable as suddenly discovering a dense forest in a barren desert.
Archer had almost no time to think; as if it were an instinctive reaction, he knelt down with a thud and kowtowed deeply to Wu Heyi.
He knew perfectly well how dangerous his situation had just been.
It was a feeling of walking on the edge of life and death. If Wu Heyi hadn't generously helped him, he probably would have really exploded and died.
Wu Heyi was like a guiding light in Archer's life, illuminating him and saving his life in this critical moment.
Wu Heyi didn't say much, but silently threw two very special-looking bones in front of Archer.
These two bones have a peculiar shape, can be joined together, and are quite similar to wings.
Archer was very surprised and couldn't help but wonder if Wu Heyi was going to treat him like a dog after he asked him to pick up the bones.
The strange idea popped into Archer's mind, but he wasn't sure, and just stared at the two bones with a heart full of doubt.
"This is the soul bone of the fish you just absorbed!" Wu Heyi finally explained.
His voice was calm and steady, as if these two peculiar bones were nothing special.
"None of you here understand what a soul bone is, right?"
Wu Heyi's words were transmitted using soul power, which spread outwards like invisible waves, ensuring that everyone on the nearby ships could hear him clearly.
"I'll give you all a little lesson. Soul bones are the aggregates of the thoughts of soul beasts."
You should know that in this vast world, only one in 10 soul beasts might be born as a single soul bone.
These soul bones also come in different types. Normal soul bones are divided into several categories: skull, arm bones, leg bones, and torso bones, totaling six pieces.
Soul bones are a very magical thing; they come with one or two soul skills.
Of course, there are also special soul bones. Those not located in these four main positions are collectively called external soul bones. These external soul bones are even rarer than normal soul bones, like priceless treasures in a dazzling galaxy.
Wu Heyi earnestly explained the knowledge about soul bones.
Wu Heyi simply mentioned the special equipment that soul beasts could drop, but unexpectedly, many people in the guard suddenly had an epiphany, followed by deep regret, regretting that they seemed to have missed out on a lot in the past.
On this continent, Soul Masters do not have a very sound education system, and their understanding of many resources is vague.
Like people groping their way forward in the dark, most of the time they can only touch the tip of the iceberg, so they are almost unaware of the existence of soul bones.
Even if some Soul Masters know of the existence of Soul Bones, they might just treat them as a tough nut to crack and discard them without a second thought.
Archer looked at the soul bone before him and was immediately filled with a burning desire and excitement.
His eyes shone with a burning light, like a child seeing a long-desired toy.
Because this soul bone looks like a pair of wings, such an obvious feature makes it impossible for it to be one of the six normal soul bones. Therefore, Archer can almost conclude that this must be an external soul bone.
External soul bones are extremely rare items, and possessing one means a huge boost to one's strength.
"Tell me first, what kind of soul skill does your latest soul ring grant you?"
Wu Heyi suddenly sat up straight and said in a serious tone.
"I'll consider whether to let you absorb this external soul bone after I've explained it to you."
Generally speaking, the soul skills carried by external soul bones usually amplify the effects of the soul skills that generate soul rings for the corresponding soul beasts.
However, there are many variables involved. Some soul skills, even if amplified a hundredfold, are actually useless.
The most crucial issue here is that external soul bones inevitably carry the resentment of soul beasts, so if the soul skill's effect is too poor, there's no need to take the risk of accepting the soul bone.
Archer immediately stood up and unhesitatingly released his martial spirit and grabbed it in his hand.
His martial spirit emitted a unique light, as if telling the story of its extraordinary nature.
"My sixth soul skill is called Six-Eyed Empty Blade!"
A black spirit ring appeared on the dagger in Archer's hand, emanating a mysterious and profound aura.
The next second, Archer became ethereal, the process as swift as lightning across the night sky. Then he quickly returned to normal.
But in that very instant, an apple in front of him was cut six times, without any warning.
The apple didn't budge at all after those six cuts, as if space itself had been sliced six times in an instant.
Because of their powerful soul power and mental strength, Wu Heyi and Meng Xuanjun were able to cover the surroundings with their mental power almost the instant Acher used his soul skill.
Their spiritual power was like an invisible net, enveloping this space.
Therefore, they were able to clearly see the form of Archer's soul power release.
It was like watching a magnificent magic show up close, with nothing missing.
"This soul skill is perfectly suited to your martial soul's passive ability, Dimensional!" Meng Xuanjun couldn't help but exclaim in surprise.
His voice was filled with surprise and excitement, as if he had discovered a huge secret.
"Yes!" Archer's short and powerful word proved Wu Heyi and Meng Xuanjun's conjecture.
Archer's Martial Soul's passive dimensional effect is quite peculiar; it allows Archer to remain stationary while his Martial Soul can still attack any location within a certain range.
It's as if Archer has transformed into a space sniper, able to kill enemies invisibly within a certain range without moving his body.
This soul skill happened to incorporate the effect of dimensionality, allowing Archer to enter a dimensional state.
In this state, the world appears different to him, as if a three-dimensional being has entered a four-dimensional space.
The whole world can be freely folded in his eyes, even if Archer can only swing his sword once in this state.
But if the world were folded by him 1 times, according to a peculiar spatial algorithm, it would be equivalent to swinging a sword to the power of 2 to the power of 9999.
Of course, this is just a theoretical assumption, and Archer's soul power is far from sufficient to support him using it in this way.
However, even if it can only be folded six times, it is still a terrifying attack.
Most importantly, his attack does not cut into the physical entity, but into the entire space, which is undoubtedly an extremely special and terrifying attack method.
