Chapter 63 Third Soul Skill

The eight-petaled fairy orchid melted upon entering the mouth, instantly transforming into spiritual liquid that entered Gu Ziyi's body.

boom--

A tremendous amount of energy erupted instantly within Gu Ziyi's body.

However, this energy is unusually gentle and not destructive.

"As expected of the most easily absorbed immortal herb."

After giving a sigh of praise, Gu Ziyi began to actively absorb and refine the essence.

Time passed steadily as Gu Ziyi refined his essence, and soon three hours had gone by before Gu Ziyi opened his eyes from meditation.

A glint of light flashed in Gu Ziyi's eyes and then disappeared.

"Good, this magical herb really helped me level up to level 30."

With a hint of excitement in his eyes, Gu Ziyi felt refreshed and happy after absorbing the immortal herb.

"While I'm still in top form, let's also condense my third spirit ring!"

"While I'm at it, I'll try actively meditating on the soul skill I want."

Feeling refreshed and happy, Gu Ziyi quickly got to work again.

Since condensing his second soul ring, Gu Ziyi has made some guesses about how his soul skills were created based on his two soul skills.

He suspected that his soul skills were related to his understanding of talismans, especially the cleansing effect of his second soul skill, the Purification Spell, which must have come from his knowledge of purification techniques in the cultivation world.

Therefore, Gu Ziyi strongly suspects that the birth of his soul skill is related to his own cognition, similar to the Sharingan awakening the Mangekyou Sharingan, which is a reflection of his inner self.

If the guess is correct, then this is Gu Ziyi's biggest advantage.

"call……"

"Let's begin!"

After letting out a long breath, Gu Ziyi skillfully began to condense his third soul ring.

This time, Gu Ziyi's method of condensing his soul ring was somewhat different from the last time.

Because the people in the Spirit Hall's research department have developed a way to more easily condense spirit rings.

The process is similar, but it's a bit more detailed and easier.

hum-

Following this method, Gu Ziyi officially began to condense his third soul ring.

During the process of condensation, Gu Ziyi's consciousness also attempted to merge into it.

At first, it didn't work, but Gu Ziyi didn't give up and kept trying.

Even when Gu Ziyi's third spirit ring was about to be formed, it was still not successful.

However, just when Gu Ziyi thought his attempt had failed.

boom--

Just as Gu Ziyi's third spirit ring was fully formed, he felt his consciousness enter a mysterious space.

Here, Gu Ziyi saw a lot of images about talismans and Taoist priests, all of which Gu Ziyi had seen in his previous life.

Some are from movies and TV shows, some are from anime, and some are from novels.

However, the image is rather blurry, and you can only roughly make out the talismans, Taoist techniques, and the like.

"Five Thunder Dharma!"

When Gu Ziyi saw one of the spells with lightning and thunder, his mind was immediately invigorated.

Lightning magic, there's no weak lightning spell.

And it's definitely an attack skill.

Gu Ziyi immediately wanted to pull it over and make it his third soul skill.

However, he had not succeeded yet, which gave Gu Ziyi the feeling that his cultivation was not enough and the time was not ripe.

Gu Ziyi then tried other spells, but none of them worked.

Golden Light Curse!

It wasn't until Gu Ziyi chose the Golden Light Mantra that he succeeded.

Then the effects of the Golden Light Mantra were practiced in Gu Ziyi's consciousness.

After using the Golden Light Mantra, a layer of golden light will cover your body, increasing your attack and defense.

It also has the effect of warding off evil spirits and suppressing evil.

Like the previous soul skills, it can be used on oneself or on others.

If that's all there is to it, then this soul skill is still just a support soul skill.

However, during the subsequent drills, Gu Ziyi saw that the Golden Light Mantra could also be remotely controlled, and Gu Ziyi knew that this was not a purely auxiliary soul skill.

boom--

Sure enough, in the final drill, it even performed a Golden Light Susanoo.

Seeing this, Gu Ziyi made no further hesitation and chose it.

He can't choose anything else for the time being.

hum-

As soon as this thought crossed Gu Ziyi's mind, his consciousness left the mysterious space, and his third self-condensing soul ring was completely formed, surrounding him along with the other two soul rings.

"Nine hundred years of quality!"

After assessing the quality of the third spirit ring, Gu Ziyi quickly made a judgment.

It's not bad. It can't compare to the best-configured third spirit ring, but it's still pretty good.

After all, the current limit for a Soul Master's third Soul Ring is only 1,700 years.

"Third Soul Skill - Golden Light Talisman!"

Gu Ziyi then immediately unleashed his third soul skill, wanting to test its effects.

hum-

A talisman shimmering with golden light was summoned into Gu Ziyi's hand, and he first stuck it to his body.

As the talisman disappeared, Gu Ziyi's body was enveloped in a faint golden light. Gu Ziyi could clearly feel the changes in himself; his strength and defense had both increased.

"Third Soul Skill - Golden Light Talisman!"

Then, Gu Ziyi summoned another golden light talisman.

This time, Gu Ziyi didn't stick it on his body. Instead, he activated the talisman and threw the golden light talisman out.

Then Gu Ziyi put his index and middle fingers together and used his mental power and hand gestures to control the golden talisman to shuttle through the air.

Swish swish swish~~~

"Haha, great!"

Gu Ziyi cheered as he manipulated the device, finally having his own attack soul skill.

His martial soul is no longer just a simple support-type martial soul.

After playing around for a while, Gu Ziyi finally stopped, satisfied, when the golden light talisman dissipated.

As for the Golden Light Opening Susanoo, Gu Ziyi did not attempt it.

Because that's not a soul skill, it's not something he can do right now.

That involves the development and application of the Golden Light Talisman; he needs to master the Golden Light Talisman himself to develop it.

However, by then, Gu Ziyi definitely doesn't plan to activate Susanoo; activating Dharma Form would be more appropriate.

Furthermore, Gu Ziyi also discovered that this method of remotely manipulating the golden light talisman consumed more mental energy, but consumed less soul energy.

"It's only because my mental strength is significantly stronger than the average person's; otherwise, I really wouldn't be able to control it!"

"However, it was quite taxing for me as well."

"Indeed, I was right to keep the Dew of Longing. It can enhance my eyesight and mental strength, which is perfect for me."

Having just finished eating one herb, Gu Ziyi was already looking forward to eating another.

"Let's inform the teacher first!"

After glancing at the sky and realizing it was already daylight, Gu Ziyi opened the door and prepared to go to Qian Xunji's place.

"Your Highness!"

As soon as Gu Ziyi stepped out, She Long quickly came to her side.

"Senior She Long, I need to go to my teacher!"

Gu Ziyi didn't stop walking, but said something to She Long.

She Long nodded behind him without replying, and simply followed Gu Ziyi, doing his job.

Am I just imagining things?

This kid's cultivation seems to have improved a lot?
