The Ultimate Conductive Terror Beast stands on Douluo Continent

"No, to be precise, it has nothing to do with martial spirits, nor with spirit masters." Gu You added.

"The soul skills provided by Moonlight, both in terms of effect and cost, are too random, and there is absolutely no way to find a pattern. This is why this kind of soul beast is no longer chosen by soul masters."

"The effects and costs are too random?" Tang San didn't understand either, not to mention Xiao Wu and Meng Yiran who had just joined the team.

"First of all, the effect of soul skills is related to the soul beast that provides the soul ring and the martial soul itself. Everyone should be clear about this."

Everyone nodded, and Gu You continued.

"The price is very simple. It means what you have to pay to use this soul skill. The most typical one is soul power. For example, if Xiao Wu wants to use the waist bow, it will consume soul power. This soul power is the price."

"In addition to soul power, some soul skills have other costs."

Gu You originally wanted to say that Oscar's Beyond Limit Dark Green Intestine in the original novel cost him three days of weakness after using it (although it seems that except for the initial weakness, there is no such side effect afterwards). But now this soul skill has not appeared yet, so he can only explain it vaguely.

"The most common auxiliary spirit skill is berserk, but the price is the loss of intelligence during battle."

"Secondly, there are some explosive spirit skills. When used, they can be strengthened several times, but the price is the loss of physical vitality, which requires time to slowly recover."

"Another thing is time. For example, Meng Yiran's "Erasure" needs half an hour to recover after each use, so it cannot be used continuously."

At this point, everyone looked at Meng Yiran, who glared back at them, his eyes conveying the meaning of "what are you looking at?"

Gu You retracted his gaze and continued, "And the soul skills provided by Moonlight, both the soul skills themselves and the price, are all abnormal."

"According to records, there was once a spirit master whose martial spirit was a pair of swords."

"Because he was a civilian, the Spirit Hall at that time was not as effective in helping civilians as it is now, so he could only hunt souls on his own."

"For various reasons, I finally chose Moonlight as his first spirit ring."

At this point, Gu You kept everyone in suspense, "Guess what the effect of his first soul skill is."

Among the three, Xiao Wu gave up first. Meng Yiran tentatively answered: "Is it a slash like Ban Feiwu's?"

"No."

After thinking carefully, Tang San said, "Since it is a soul beast that absorbs moonlight to grow, its soul skills may be related to light."

"I think it might be a light cannon with a knife."

"Unfortunately, I guessed wrong."

Gu You nodded and motioned Lanta to find the book on the bookshelf. He smiled and said, "You can't guess it, because this soul skill has nothing to do with swords, plants, or moonlight."

"The name of this soul skill is Crescent Moon Shield."

"And the price of this soul skill, in addition to soul power, also includes soul rings."

---------------

ps1: Crescent Shield can also be called Luna Shield

ps2: Additional setting, Spirit Hall needs to generate income, one of the ways is to help some weak soul masters hunt souls.

The soul masters who get help from the Spirit Hall need to join the Spirit Hall and work for different periods of time depending on the difficulty of obtaining soul rings.

Chapter 137 Moon Goddess's Prank

"The price is a soul ring?!" x3

I have never heard of such a thing. The price is a soul ring. Does it mean that every time this soul skill is used, a soul ring will disappear and then a new soul ring will have to be hunted?

Knowing that everyone had misunderstood, Gu You quickly explained: "The price is that the spirit ring cannot be used for a period of time, which is similar to Meng Yiran's, but also different."

Noticing that Ranta was coming back with the book, Gu You said, "Ranta, show them the book. It's hard for me to explain it clearly."

Tang San took the book "A Legend of Soaring into the Sky", turned to the page written by Gu Youshuo, and began to read it carefully.

Xiao Wu and Meng Yiran also came over to read the records. Gu You continued to explain in a voice-over tone: "Crescent Shield, according to the records, the effect is that pieces of armor extend from the back, forming a crescent-shaped shield in front of the body to block attacks."

"Because it's a physical shield, I can't take advantage of it to attack the enemy when I use it."

"The defensive power is amazing. From the records at the back, we can see that the soul master recorded in the book, with the cultivation of the Soul Emperor, used this move in the Storm Rift Valley and even blocked the attack of a dragon species that was suspected to be a hundred thousand year soul beast."

"More than one move." Gu You said meaningfully.

The following is an excerpt from "A Flying Legend"

"...

I have never felt such a strong sense of oppression.

No matter how hard I attacked, I couldn't leave a scratch on the silver-black shell. The sharp Sword of Hope was like the wooden sword my father made for me when I was young, meaningless in front of its hard shell.

It is nearly a hundred meters long, and when it stands up, its head seems to be as high as the moon.

When its wings are spread, they cover the sky and the sun. Its wingspan is several times longer than its body length, as if the world will be shrouded by its wings.

It roared at me, as if venting its dissatisfaction.

The strong wind enveloped its figure, and its wings just flapped slightly, and the storm shattered the boulders on the ground.

I awakened a monster that should not have been awakened, with claws that could easily tear apart the chaffinch stone, wing blades that could leave cut marks on the rock wall, teeth that could easily bite off the thousand-year-old lightning-struck wood, and feet that could easily crush the earth.

Plus the terrible gale.

The wind is its sharp sword, the wind is its strong shield, and it is the king of storms protected by the strong wind.

The ruler of bad weather - the Steel Dragon."

"This... what is this?" Tang San didn't expect that he could see such a horrifying thing in a book.

A dragon nearly a hundred meters long with a wingspan of hundreds of meters, just imagining it made Tang San shudder. A soul beast of this size could easily destroy Notting City just by landing from the sky.

"The ruler of evil weather, the dragon that calls the wind, the flying wind dragon, the iron-boned wind king... these are all its titles."

As if praising a great being, Gu You whispered, "The Steel Dragon. Legend has it that it created the Storm Rift."

Xiao Wu asked in surprise: "The Storm Rift it created?"

Originally, Xiao Wu thought it was unreliable when she heard that the height was 100 meters and the wingspan was several times the height. Now, she feels that it is just bragging.

Er Ming, as a Titan ape, is only eight meters tall, but a dragon of unknown origin is nearly a hundred meters long? How is this possible?

It can only be said that Xiao Wu’s ordinary bloodline has limited her imagination. She has never thought that her current body shape is not Er Ming’s combat shape.

Just like she didn't know that soul beasts could freely transform into human form after surviving the first heavenly tribulation.

"Ancient legends record it this way: It tore the earth apart with its supreme black wind, its wings spread out, and the wounds of the earth were forcibly opened. Accompanied by the dragon's roar, violent storms, lightning and thunder, all life was reduced to ashes in its rage."

"It sleeps in the deepest part of the rift valley. The dark clouds that surround it for a long time are its closed eyes, and the thunder and the strong wind are its snoring."

"Once it wakes up again, the hurricane that destroys the world will blow again until the world is shattered."

Everyone was silent. Just by listening to Gu You's legend, everyone could imagine the power of the steel dragon.

“Don’t be afraid,” seeing everyone’s solemn expressions, Gu You laughed, “It’s just a legend. Besides, the person recorded in the book in your hand escaped from the Steel Dragon, and everything in the world is still normal.”

After hearing this, everyone felt relieved and continued watching.

"...

I have never found the effect of the first soul skill to be so powerful.

Since becoming a Soul Master, I have never used my first soul skill again.

Crescent Shield, a defensive soul skill that can be used once every ten minutes. Every time I use it, a shield will extend from my back to block attacks for me. The price is that the soul ring itself turns gray, and it can only be used again after it has restored its color after ten minutes.

I thought this might be the worst soul skill in history. A shield that can only be used once every ten minutes, and disappears instantly when the attack ends. No matter how much soul power is used, it can't extend the time.

As a defensive spirit skill, this is bad enough. What's worse is that my martial spirit, the Sword of Hope, is a double blade, and I am a spirit master of the Agility Attack system!

Why would I need a defensive soul skill?

Fortunately, I had good talent and quickly reached level 20. This time, I didn't take the easy way out and went to hunt souls normally to obtain normal soul skills. The first soul skill was slowly forgotten by me.

Now, in front of the steel dragon, only the crescent shield can protect me.

Only then did I realize that although the Crescent Shield can only block one attack, as long as the attack is counted, no matter how long it lasts, it does not require me to continue to provide soul power to provide protection.

The most important thing is that this price does not necessarily require the first soul ring. The second soul ring, the third soul ring, as long as it is my soul ring, can be used as the price of using the first soul skill.

Every time the Steel Dragon used a large-scale attack, I would block it with the Crescent Shield and run out of the rift without looking back.

In the strong wind, my movements were extremely inconvenient. In addition to blocking the steel dragon's attack, I also had to avoid obstacles in the wind. If it weren't for the crescent shield that could block its large-scale attack, I might have stayed there forever, waiting for the next adventurer to find my remains.

 …”

"The price can be other spirit rings?!" x3

Meng Yiran saw this, waved his right hand to summon his snake staff, and said to Tang San: "Tang San, use your first spirit skill."

Tang San immediately understood what Meng Yiran wanted to do. He stretched out his right hand, and blue silver grass grew from his palm. His spirit ring lit up and started to take root.

"Erase!"

As Meng Yiran spoke, a circle of yellow spirit rings lit up, and the snake head on the top of the snake staff in Meng Yiran's hand opened its eyes, and the snake pupils reflected Tang San's figure.

Tang San frowned, and the glowing spirit rings around him went silent. The feeling of having his spirit skill forcibly interrupted was very uncomfortable, but it wasn't painful, it was more like being interrupted in the middle of a yawn.

Meng Yiran's spirit ring also dimmed. She also frowned and activated another spirit ring. The snake's mouth opened wide, and its tongue stretched out suddenly, cutting through the air and stopping in front of Gu You.

Gu You was neither panicked nor did he evade. He smiled and said, "Don't even think about it. If the soul skills provided by the Snake Head Guardian can do this, then I would never tell you."

"Humph."

The tongue blade was retracted, and the snake staff disappeared in Meng Yiran's hand. She snorted coldly and sat down, saying, "Of course I know this."

Meng Yiran also knew that the price of his second soul skill could not be paid by other soul rings, so he just wanted to try it, there was no loss anyway.

"This is the uncertainty of the soul skills provided by Moonlight."

"The effect may have nothing to do with the martial spirit. The dual-blade martial spirit gives a defensive spirit skill. It is not to use the swords to protect or generate a light shield, but to generate a physical shield from the back in an unknown way."

"The cost of a soul skill is also very strange. It is not limited to the soul ring of the soul skill, but other soul rings can be used as a price instead."

"That's why the moonlight is called 'the Moon God's prank' by the soul masters. Now almost no soul master would choose moonlight as a soul ring."

Hearing this, everyone began to wonder why Lanta wanted to choose the soul ring of this soul beast.

Whether it is the divine bird Smurf, the Roentgen cat, or the triggered ice crystal, the abilities obtained are very clear and with the help of Gu You, the road ahead will definitely be smooth.

So, why did Ranta want to gamble on this uncertain probability, and what attracted her to the moonlight?
