Chapter 24: double kamui

The Ape King fell, and dust billowed.

Ye Qiu's figure seemed somewhat illusory, a faint smile playing on his lips as he watched the Ape King crash to the ground. "Indeed, some creatures never learn." 

"Roar!" Failing to land a hit, the Ape King wasn't surprised. It immediately activated its berserk mode and charged towards Ye Qiu.

However, several punches landed on the ground, and Ye Qiu stood there unscathed, without making a move. 

"Have you had enough?" Ye Qiu said, advancing and delivering a crucial strike with a sweeping leg. 

In its berserk state, the Ape King seemed oblivious to defense. 

Splurt! This time, Ye Qiu didn't hold back. If he hadn't absorbed the soul ring in time, he might have been crushed by it. This was just a slight punishment.

"Roar!" Watching the Ape King rolling on the ground, Ye Qiu didn't want to linger here any longer. The commotion from earlier might have attracted someone's attention. 

He signaled to the tiger cub that had just climbed up and was about to leave. 

"Huh?!" In the distance, a purple light caught Ye Qiu's attention. "Could it be?" 

Whoosh! Almost subconsciously, he used Ghost Shadow Perplexing Track, swiftly grabbing the object into his hands. 

The purple light flowed like a bulletproof vest, exceptionally flexible. 

"Humph, this Ape King almost caused trouble!" Ye Qiu was now certain that the object in his hand was a soul bone, but its appearance was somewhat peculiar. "Is this a torso bone? Why is it hollow and soft?" 

"Oh, it seems that my luck exploded!" Suddenly, Ye Qiu remembered that besides the six-piece set, there seemed to be something called an externally attached soul bone. "Could this be an externally attached soul bone!?" 

Ye Qiu felt that his guess was almost accurate. Unexpectedly, by using the Sharingan to force the soul beast to sacrifice itself, he could also obtain a soul bone, and it turned out to be a rare externally attached soul bone! 

So, could he quickly collect a whole set in the future? 

Hearing the movement from afar, Ye Qiu didn't dare to linger. He gave the Ape King another kick, making it go from a proud one to a castrated one, rendering it powerless,both eggs are scrambled!! 

Focusing on the soul bone in his hand, the Sharingan activated, and the space instantly twisted like an invisible vortex, sucking the externally attached soul bone into it, leaving no trace. 

Stepping on the tiger on the side, Ye Qiu left. 

Along the way, with the help of the Sharingan, he avoided a lot of trouble. 

"Huh? Another Gale Wind Demon Wolf!" The alert Ye Qiu noticed another wicked male wolf ahead. 

Clap! Clap! He patted the back of the tiger, signaling it to come closer. "Perfect, let me test the power of my left eye!" 

As soon as he finished speaking, the hexagram pattern appeared in his left eye. He focused his gaze on the Gale Wind Demon Wolf's waist. 

"Divine Might!" He uttered. 

"Awuuu~" The Gale Wind Demon Wolf suddenly felt pain, wanting to escape but was already too late. The space distortion twisted it in half, and broke it at the waist, and the bloody nine large intestines were scattered on the ground. 

"Phew~ Not bad power!" Ye Qiu was delighted. A six-hundred-year Gale Wind Demon Wolf, killed in seconds! 

Ye Qiu jumped off his mount. Having ridden the tiger for so long without much gratitude he had nothing to thank him with. Before leaving, he could only give him the Nine Large Intestines.

Finally, after patting the tiger's head a couple of times, Ye Qiu headed towards the exit of the Soul-Hunting Forest. 

The tiger, standing in place, now had clear eyes. Watching Ye Qiu's departing figure, it howled. 

"Roar~" Gurgling! The feeble roar was overshadowed by the undisciplined growl of its stomach. Looking at the Gale Wind Demon Wolf torn in two not far away, it didn't care about manners, lunging forward like a hungry tiger, thoroughly enjoying its meal. 

Finally, it had a good meal! 

Ye Qiu leaped through the jungle, wiping off the bloodstains from his face with his sleeve. The smile at the corner of his mouth couldn't be suppressed, almost forgetting himself in delight. 

"A great harvest this time! Xiao Wu, I'm back!"

"A millennium purple first ring, soul power at level seventeen, Mysterious Heaven cultivation art also breakthrough to the second layer, with an additional external attached soul bone!"

Compared to these, what excites Ye Qiu even more is his Sharingan, which seems to be a dual skill in one ring! 

It's clear,

Dual kamui! The divine skill he sought after in his previous life! 

With the additional soul ring, it evolved into the Kaleidoscope Sharingan, significantly enhancing illusion techniques and observational abilities. 

The left eye can remotely shift objects and enemy attacks, sending oneself into the Divine Might space. It can also strike enemies using space distortion, just like the previous encounter with the wolf.

The right eye can phase attacked parts of oneself, to some extent, allowing evasion of any physical attacks. It can transfer people or items it touches and mark space for remote teleportation through the kamui Divine space!

It has inherent advantages in terms of survival, escape, surprise attacks, and even storage. 

Ye Qiu is also puzzled,

In theory, the soul skills that a Soul Master obtains should be related to the characteristics of the soul beast. However, the Sharingan seems different. 

The soul ring of the Forest Python opened the kamui soul skills, and it seems impossible to figure out any connection. 

Ye Qiu can only attribute it to the Sharingan struggling to adapt to this world. After all, when he uses soul skills, it seems that even the soul ring won't manifest. In this regard, Ye Qiu can only say that his martial soul is quite smart and sensible! 

With increased speed, Ye Qiu still remembers entrusting a letter to the Tom couple. 

It might be better to take back that letter with a testament-like nature. Now that he has kamui for protection, even if he can't beat the Tang father and son, running away should not be a problem, right? 

... 

The time is afternoon. 

Ye Qiu, in tattered clothes, finally returned to the carving workshop. 

"Young man Ye Qiu! How did you end up in such a sorry state? For Being a Soul Master really has to do it!" 

Upon seeing him, Grandma Tom's scolding quickly followed. 

Ye Qiu knew that her parents had gone missing while hunting for soul beasts. Even though she had soul power, she didn't become a Soul Master, instead married an ordinary person.

This was something he couldn't honestly answer, so he could only smile awkwardly. 'Being a Soul Master is really a must!' 

"All right, all right. Ye Qiu, you should go wash up first. I'll go buy you some clothes!" Grandpa Jerry pulled him away, not allowing him to speak, and said some whispered words to Ye Qiu. 

When Ye Qiu finished getting ready and came out again, the elderly couple was sitting upright, looking at him sternly, gesturing for him to sit across from them. 

After Ye Qiu sat down, thinking it might be a trial or interrogation, Grandma Tom simply handed the letter to him. 

"The young girl was here this morning. It's not time yet, so I didn't give it to her." 

Silently accepting it, he put it away. 

After the couple exchanged a glance, Grandma Tom took out a box from behind and placed it in the center of the table.

"Take a look!" 

Following their instructions, Ye Qiu opened it, revealing a pink gem with a metal ring underneath. 

"A ring?" He looked at the two old people strangely, not understanding what they meant. 

"What's the matter? The esteemed Soul Master has such limited knowledge?" Grandma Tom's words had a hint of gunpowder. 

Luckily, Grandpa Jerry was there to reassure him, smiling at Ye Qiu and saying, "Take a closer look." 

Scratching his head, Ye Qiu, with his limited knowledge, held the ring in his hand. "This is a Spatial Soul Guide!" 

Looking at the two old people in surprise, he didn't expect these old folks to have such a precious item!
