Chapter 47: Million-Year Skull, Heaven-Defying Soul Skill!

After the refresh prompt, Dai Xiyu opened the warehouse and took out the million-year skull.

Amid spatial fluctuations, a beautifully shaped skull appeared in Dai Xiyu's hand.

Just by looking at it with both eyes, one could feel the powerful energy fluctuations contained within; this skull was like a black hole, attracting people's hearts and minds.

With the night long and dreams many, Dai Xiyu decided not to make any further preparations, directly using soul power to stimulate the skull and begin absorption.

In an instant, vast energy conducted from the skull spread into Dai Xiyu's body, washing over his soul power and spirit.

After beginning to absorb the skull, time flew by.

Dai Xiyu's consciousness became ethereal, his soul seeming to depart three-dimensionally, observing his own body from a bystander's perspective.

In Dai Xiyu's consciousness, at that moment his body was surrounded by intense energy fluctuations, causing countless nearby soul beasts to emit uneasy low growls.

The relatively nearby birds and beasts all spread their wings and flew away, striving to distance themselves from the source of the energy fluctuations.

The soul beasts dwelling in the forest's center mostly had cultivations under ten thousand years; facing the overwhelming pressure of a million years, they naturally felt fear and dared not approach.

In fact, this is also why Dai Xiyu chose to absorb in the forest's outskirts.

If he were to absorb in the imperial palace, he would inevitably attract the covetousness of those with ulterior motives.

Or else, the existence of the million-year skull would be spread by well-meaning people.

Either way, it would be extremely bad, highly disadvantageous for Dai Xiyu.

But by absorbing alone and secretly, he would avoid such troubles, and after successful absorption, no one would know he possessed a million-year soul bone.

On the Douluo Continent, hundred-thousand-year soul beasts are extremely rare existences.

Consequently, very few people can obtain a hundred-thousand-year soul bone.

The million-year soul bone that Dai Xiyu absorbed is even rarer among the rare, not to be taken lightly.

Time passed bit by bit, unknown how long, and Dai Xiyu's consciousness gradually returned to his true body.

Opening his eyes, Dai Xiyu's pupils burst forth with dazzling light, like a flashbulb, illuminating the interior of the tree hollow.

Shortly after, the light retracted, and Dai Xiyu returned to his former state.

He let out a long breath of foul air, feeling his internal state, and couldn't help but smile.

This million-year spirit-concentrated alluring skull brought Dai Xiyu an improvement that could be called tremendously great.

Merely in terms of soul power, he directly reached level fifty.

Now, as long as he obtains another soul ring, Dai Xiyu can immediately absorb it and break through to the five-ring Soul King realm.

Moreover, the benefits brought by the soul bone are not limited to this.

Like soul rings, soul bones also grant soul masters additional soul skills, and for soul bones exceeding one hundred thousand years, they will directly come with two or more.

As the alluring skull of a million-year soul bone, it is naturally no exception.

Thinking about the soul bone's attached soul skill, Dai Xiyu couldn't help but wear a strange expression.

The million-year spirit-concentrated alluring skull comes with a total of two soul skills.

One of them is an active soul skill, the other a passive soul skill.

The active soul skill's function is cognitive interference, capable of briefly controlling an opponent's thoughts.

It can even make them regard their teammates as mortal enemies and launch an attack.

Of course, aside from turning them on the spot, some "special" matters can also be achieved through control.

During the cognitive interference process, the interfered person cannot notice it and will think they are acting of their own volition.

As for what those special things are……that depends on how rich one's imagination is.

Of course, this soul skill also has limitations.

Each use lasts no more than ten minutes, and the opponent's soul power cannot exceed one's own by more than ten levels.

—The good news is, this soul skill has no cooldown; as long as mental power and soul power are sufficient, it can be used consecutively.

Therefore, theoretically, Dai Xiyu can use it on the same person every ten minutes until his soul power or mental power can no longer sustain it.

Besides this, the alluring skull also has a passive soul skill.

This passive soul skill is even stranger than the active one, effective only on the opposite sex.

The function of this passive soul skill is to allure the opposite sex.

As long as the opposite sex makes eye contact with Dai Xiyu or experiences bodily contact, the passive skill will automatically trigger.

After the skill triggers, it will continuously increase the target's favorability toward him until favorability is maxed out.

The specific details cannot be described; in short, just one more glance will lead to **.

This passive skill, for Dai Xiyu, is practically like adding wings to a tiger.

After all, as a Fortune Hunter, he originally needed to obtain the favor of opposite-sex fortune-bearers in order to plunder their fortune.

With this passive skill, Dai Xiyu needs do nothing; through gaze and bodily contact, he can silently achieve his goal in secret.

Relative to that, this passive allure skill is more practical than cognitive interference.

"Indeed worthy of a million-year alluring skull, the soul skills are one more heaven-defying than the next."

After sighing, Dai Xiyu opened the Fortune Store once again.

At this moment, the Fortune Store had refreshed, and many new items appeared on the list.

…

After the second refresh, the next refresh time has already increased to one year.

The store's contents have also increased considerably; not only are the varieties of soul rings more diverse, but there are also two million-year soul bones.

From the name, one can know that this right arm bone is of the attack type, while the left leg bone is of the agility type.

Million-year soul bones can all greatly increase strength; Dai Xiyu naturally craves them greatly.

On the Douluo Continent, strength is always the hard truth.

Speaking of this, I must mention that Dai Xiyu has researched luck during this period.

As mentioned before, the level of luck can determine whether Dai Xiyu can kill the Son of Luck.

Actually, although luck can influence the final outcome, it is not absolute.

Strong luck must be combined with sufficient strength to be invincible.

For example, if Tang San had fifty million luck but only rank ten.

While Dai Xiyu has fifty thousand luck, but rank ninety.

In this situation, Tang San cannot possibly kill Dai Xiyu.

Even if luck is a thousand times greater than Dai Xiyu's, the strength difference is too vast.

What luck can do is merely create some opportunities and coincidences, helping Tang San escape danger, so as not to be killed on the spot.

Only when both luck and strength are higher than or close to the opponent's can the killing condition be met.

That is to say, as long as Dai Xiyu continually improves strength and becomes invincible under heaven.

Then, even if an enemy with ten thousand times more luck appears, it cannot be disadvantageous to oneself.

Therefore, although luck is important, strength is even more important.

Dai Xiyu must not, for the sake of accumulating luck, lose the watermelon and pick up the sesame.
