Chapter 81 – A Transformation of Strength!
Volume 2: Battlefield Between Two Worlds
As the light from the Void Skill Scroll flashed, it fell directly onto the Little Soul Beast.
The Little Soul Beast instantly transformed into a glowing white, egg-shaped black mass, its body twitching continuously.
"Does it hurt?"
Wen Yu thought that using a Skill Scroll might cause pain, but as it turned out, he was overthinking it.
"Master… Master…"
The mental waves transmitted by the Little Soul Beast contained only those two words, but from the emotions behind them, the Little Soul Beast was clearly excited and joyful.
"As long as it doesn't hurt. That's good."
Due to the nature of the Soul Master Class, the bond between Wen Yu and the Little Soul Beast had already surpassed a simple master-servant relationship. Wen Yu even felt a sense of intimacy toward it, as if the Little Soul Beast were his own child!
After a short while, the Little Soul Beast completed the skill replacement.
Soul Beast: Level 3, Physical Attribute: 50 Points.
Skill 1: Soul Strike (S-Rank).
Skill 2: Phasing (S-Rank).
Skill 3: Shadow Step (B-Rank).
This was the current overall strength of the Soul Beast.
Then, Wen Yu turned his gaze toward One-Eye.
"Come here."
With a casual beckon, One-Eye immediately came trotting over, wagging his tail eagerly.
With One-Eye's intelligence, he had already realized what Wen Yu was doing. Being called forward now definitely meant there were great benefits in store!
Seeing One-Eye sit directly in front of him, panting with his tongue out and a face full of flattery, Wen Yu couldn't help but laugh.
"Don't worry. Remember what your Boss told you? Follow me, and you'll have everything!"
"Woof!"
"I knew the Boss was the greatest!"
Wen Yu stopped bantering with One-Eye and spent 1,000 Points to exchange for another Skill Forgetting Scroll.
Following the same process as before, he wiped away One-Eye's second skill, Strong Healing (B-Rank). Then, Wen Yu directly tore open the Tyrannical Flame (SS-Rank) scroll.
As the skill replacement finished, One-Eye suddenly let out a howl. As his cries grew louder, black demonic flames erupted across his entire body.
Driven by intense pain, One-Eye rolled around on the ground. The Tyrannical Flame covering him instantly ignited the uncleared corpses nearby. In the blink of an eye, any corpse touched by the fire was incinerated into nothingness by the demonic flames!
That wasn't the end of it. Even after the corpses were gone, the remaining flames continued to burn on the ground. Fortunately, the material of the city wall was definitely not something a Level 3 One-Eye could destroy. Once the fuel was exhausted, the demonic flames quickly vanished, leaving only scorched black marks on the ground.
The surrounding Class Holders saw this and immediately scrambled far away.
However, even at a distance of over twenty meters, they could still feel the searing heat radiating from One-Eye.
Suddenly, the demonic flames on One-Eye's body vanished.
Before Wen Yu could step forward to check on him, One-Eye's body seemed to be fitted with springs as he bounced straight up from the ground.
"Awoooo!"
One-Eye let out strange cries as he dashed back and forth across the entire space.
Finally, One-Eye opened his massive maw!
A massive pillar of black fire erupted from his mouth.
The pillar of fire slammed directly into the wall. The immense heat made every Class Holder present feel as if they were standing inside a giant fire pit.
The fire breath lasted for nearly ten seconds before finally subsiding.
Burp.
One-Eye let out a loud, satisfied belch. A few stray sparks fell from his mouth, bouncing around on the ground for a long time before reluctantly flickering out.
"How does it feel?"
Wen Yu asked as he saw One-Eye gradually adapt to the Tyrannical Flame skill.
"Woof."
"It feels very strong."
Seeing One-Eye grin with its wide maw, clearly satisfied with this ability, Wen Yu couldn't help but nod.
One-Eye: Level 3, Physical Attribute 78 Points.
Skill 1: Fate Struggle (S).
Skill 2: Tyrannical Flame (SS).
Skill 3: Flesh Tome (S).
As Wen Yu re-evaluated One-Eye's power, he was surprised to find that One-Eye's abilities were simply monstrous!
With these three high-level skills as its foundation, One-Eye could even contend with Level 4 creatures!
One had to understand that the Physical Attributes of Level 3 and Level 4 creatures differed by more than double!
In the future, One-Eye would undoubtedly become the sharpest War Blade in Wen Yu's hands!
After organizing his Soul Pet's abilities, Wen Yu opened his Spatial Ring.
His consciousness swept through it. Aside from daily necessities like cigarettes, food, and water, there were several useful items inside.
First was the fragment of the Black Book.
Wen Yu had never used this item. It seemed the Black Book fragment had finally absorbed enough soul power to release the curses placed upon it!
However, this thing harmed both enemies and the user alike. Aside from Wen Yu himself, even One-Eye would be affected by the curse. Therefore, its use would depend entirely on the situation!
Next was a section of the Mutated Vine from Hualin Town. This thing was currently of no use whatsoever.
Finally, there were several bottles of potions.
One bottle of Berserk Potion, which could be used to save his life if things went south!
As for the side effects, one could only say they were in the hands of fate.
There was also a stamina recovery potion.
The rest consisted of one bottle of Advanced Healing Potion and one bottle of the Military's modified Healing Potion.
The last item was Greed's Touch!
This was the item that would provide the most help at the moment.
Taking it directly out of the Spatial Ring, Wen Yu slipped Greed's Touch onto his hand.
It felt cool and comfortable.
There was no other sensation.
It didn't feel like he was wearing anything at all; it was as if he had been born with this pair of fingerless gloves on his hands.
Feeling the sensation of merging with the weapon, a unique mental ripple transmitted to him. Wen Yu could now freely control Greed's Touch.
With a thought from Wen Yu, Greed's Touch suddenly underwent a transformation!
The parts covering his five fingers rapidly lengthened. In the blink of an eye, five sharp spikes protruded out!
Then, under Wen Yu's will, the five spikes extended and retracted with incredible speed!
Ignoring the surprised and envious looks from the others, Wen Yu spoke directly to Sun Ruixing, who was not far away.
"Come, take your Steel Blade and try striking it."
Sun Ruixing had an eager expression on his face. Without a word, he raised his Steel Blade and struck down at Greed's Touch with all his might.
Clang…
A crisp metallic ring echoed out. Sun Ruixing's hands went numb from the massive recoil. Once he barely adjusted to the vibration, he looked down at his Steel Blade.
A notch the size of a soybean had clearly appeared on the Steel Blade, while Greed's Touch in Wen Yu's hand was completely unscathed!
"Mhm, its sharpness and toughness should be comparable to a D-Rank Weapon."
Wen Yu nodded with satisfaction. Then, he entered his Combat State.
