Chapter 38: The Soul Bone of the Dream Eater
Xu Xingyu sighed as she watched the official announcement that the Soul Fighting Competition had ended in a draw.
It was obvious that Xu Xingyu was also very dissatisfied with the result, but he couldn't change it. After all, this was their territory and the rules were up to them.
So what Xu Xingyu can do now is leave this arena and prepare for her studies tomorrow.
On their way back to the dormitory, Xu Xingyu and his group suddenly asked, "Brother Xingyu, do you know who helped Beibei and Tang Ya cheat? They only said someone was helping them, but they didn't reveal who it was."
That's right. When the referee examined Huo Yuhao, he found that although Huo Yuhao's soul power had just reached the academy's admission requirement of level 15, his physical fitness was extremely strong, and he also possessed a hundred-year-old soul ring.
Meanwhile, while testing whether Huo Yuhao had helped Bei Bei and the others, the academy's teachers also learned about Huo Yuhao's first soul skill, Spirit Detection.
Although they were very dissatisfied with Huo Yuhao's cheating behavior, they also felt that Huo Yuhao had great potential as a control-type Soul Master.
So they only gave the other party a warning and did not publicly announce the specific identity of the person who assisted in the cheating.
Of course, the people in the audience weren't stupid; after all, some of them saw the moment the referee checked Huo Yuhao and took him away.
With just a little thought, one can deduce that Huo Yuhao is very likely the one who assisted in the cheating.
Therefore, after this incident, there will inevitably be many rumors circulating in the academy about Huo Yuhao openly cheating.
As for why Wang Dong'er didn't realize this, it was simply because she didn't see the referee take Huo Yuhao away.
This also indicates that Wang Dong'er needs to improve her application of mental power. If Wang Dong'er could use her mental power freely, her perception would be even better.
After mentally planning how Wang Dong'er would use her spiritual cultivation, Xu Xingyu decided to explain to his girlfriend the specific events that had just occurred in the Soul Arena.
However, just as he was about to speak, Jiang Nannan suddenly interjected, "Wasn't the person who helped Xiaoya the newly recruited Tang Sect disciple that Xiaoya mentioned to me before? I think his name is Huo Yuhao?"
"Huo Yuhao? That Soul Master who's only level 15? Sister Nan, are you sure you're not mistaken?" Wang Dong'er asked in surprise.
"Given that guy's strength, I really can't imagine how he could have enabled Senior Bei Bei and Senior Tang Ya to defeat Senior Xu Sanshi and Senior Dugu Yanran."
At this moment, Xu Xingyu spoke up: "Nannan is not wrong, it was indeed Huo Yuhao who did it."
"Really?!" Wang Dong'er looked at Xu Xingyu in disbelief, wanting to get a negative answer.
Xu Xingyu simply smiled and replied, "It's definitely him. As for the specific details, you can ask Nan Nan. I believe Nan Nan also sensed Huo Yuhao's actions."
Upon hearing this, Wang Dong'er turned to Jiang Nannan, waiting for her reply.
Seeing that everyone present was turning to her, Jiang Nannan said apologetically, "Um, I only have a slight feeling about Xingyu. Is it really okay for me to explain?"
"Just tell me without worry. I'll fill in the gaps. I'll also take a look at how much your mental energy has improved over the years."
After receiving Xu Xingyu's assurance, Jiang Nannan began to explain the scene she observed with her mental power. Simply put, she had sensed Huo Yuhao's mental fluctuations as mentioned before, and then launched mental attacks on Xu Sanshi to interfere with him.
Xu Xingyu supplemented Huo Yuhao's mental detection of Bei Bei and the others.
After learning the whole story, Wang Dong'er was amazed by Huo Yuhao's abilities, since this kind of soul skill sounded like the best combat support tool.
Although it cannot directly substitute for the player, it allows players to directly find the best attack position and dodge method.
What surprised Wang Dong'er the most was when Jiang Nannan had such strong mental power. She knew that her own mental power was not weak, but she could not sense Huo Yuhao's mental fluctuations.
While this certainly reflects Wang Dong'er's somewhat rudimentary approach to using her mental energy, it also indirectly demonstrates that without a certain level of mental energy skill, it would be impossible to sense Huo Yuhao's actions in the Soul Arena.
Seeing that she could no longer hide it, Jiang Nannan could only begin to explain why her mental strength had suddenly increased dramatically in the past few years, and why it had grown so much thanks to her skills in controlling her mental strength.
It turns out that when Xu Xingyu accompanied Jiang Nannan to the Xuanming Sect to demand compensation, that compensation included a ten-thousand-year-old soul bone. A year ago, Jiang Nannan went to the Xuanming Sect with Zi Ji to choose the soul bone most suitable for her.
Finally, they chose a ten-thousand-year-old Dream Eater head soul bone from the Xuanming Sect's collection of soul bones.
The so-called Dream Eater is a rare spiritual beast whose main ability is to absorb the dreams of other creatures and use them as food.
The spiritual power of the creature whose dreams it absorbs is also purified by the dream tapir.
This is why dream-eaters are not hostile to other soul beasts; on the contrary, they are quite welcoming to them coming to their territory.
After all, if a soul beast's dreams are consumed by the Dream Eater for a long time, it will be easier for it to develop its own intelligence and be able to speak before it has cultivated for 100,000 years, making it no different from a human in terms of intelligence.
However, this characteristic also led to their demise, because everyone wanted to use the Dream Eater's abilities to further improve their cultivation, with humans being the most prominent among them.
The Dream Eater is far more helpful to humans than to soul beasts, because it can not only enhance the spiritual power of humans, but also make it easier for humans to enter a state of enlightenment and sense the laws of heaven and earth.
Therefore, after being hunted by humans for a long time, the Dream Eaters gradually became an endangered species of spirit beasts. Seeing a living Dream Eater in the world today is extremely rare.
The reason why the Xuanming Sect possessed this soul bone was because the Dream Eater that provided it was a pet kept by the wife of the first sect leader of the Xuanming Sect.
This Dream Eater is also extremely loyal to the Xuanming Sect. Basically, whenever there is a crisis, this creature will appear to help them deal with enemies they cannot defeat.
Therefore, after its death, its soul and bones were preserved by the Xuanming Sect and passed down to the next generation for generations.
The reason why no one has ever fused with this soul bone is that after fusing with it, one would be trapped in an endless dream, and once trapped, one would never wake up.
Therefore, when the sect leader of Xuanming Sect heard that Jiang Nannan wanted this soul bone, he objected. He rejected the historical issues, and the side effect of never waking up again was enough to make this soul bone a soul bone that could never be fused.
However, because Zi Ji was present, the situation was beyond her control, and the sect leader of Xuanming Sect could only let Jiang Nannan take away the Dream Eater Soul Bone.
After obtaining the head bone of the Dream Eater, Jiang Nannan began to fuse with the bone under Zi Ji's guidance.
The reason why Zi Ji insisted on having Jiang Nannan fuse with this soul bone was not only because this soul bone could greatly enhance spiritual power, but also because it contained the Dream Eater clan's strongest skill, Dream Space.
Only the most talented Dream Eaters can possess this Soul Skill, and in most cases, a Dream Eater with this skill will inevitably become the patriarch of the Dream Eater clan.
The Dream Space is a space that can create a dream world in a person's mind, and the content of the space will vary from person to person.
The rate at which time passes in this space is determined by the caster; therefore, sometimes a year in the dream space may only be a day outside, and vice versa.
Those who fell into a coma after fusing with this soul bone did so because they couldn't properly control the skill, which caused them to inadvertently trap themselves in an endless dream.
However, with the help of Zi Ji, the Star Dou Overlord, it wasn't difficult for Jiang Nannan to learn how to control the influence of the Dream Space on her.
After fully mastering the Dream Space skill, Jiang Nannan built a cultivation space in her mind and tempered her mental and soul power there.
This is the biggest reason why she is able to have a cultivation level close to that of a Soul King at her current age, as well as a mental strength that surpasses that of a Soul King!
Of course, with Jiang Nannan's strength alone, she can only create a dream space that is more than a hundred years different from reality at most three days a week at this stage. She cannot do what the 100,000-year-old Dream Eater did.
Even so, this is still an incredibly powerful soul skill!
It can only be said that ever since Jiang Nannan was rescued by Xu Xingyu, her luck has inexplicably improved.
