Wen Yu was unsure whether this weakening and amplification were temporary or permanent. He also didn't know if the soul balance skill had a cooldown time, and if it did, how long it would last...
Just one skill had caused the advantage he had accumulated over more than ten minutes to dissipate into nothingness!
"Powerful strength, pure soul... Thank you for offering me such terrifying soul intensity!"
Ross hovered in mid-air, looking down at Wen Yu as if he were a deity. Then, his strength began to rise once more!
Using the soul intensity amplified by the soul balance as a baseline, Ross's soul intensity surged to over three times its previous level before it finally stabilized—thanks to certain state-type skills.
It was only natural for him to possess such skills. By now, Wen Yu had roughly figured out Ross’s skill system—centered around the soul balance, it pulled both sides' soul powers onto the same level, while simultaneously using skills to enhance his own soul intensity. Of course, there was still the final link missing...
Dim light radiated from Ross, fusing rapidly with the soul battlefield, becoming one. At the same time, Wen Yu felt his strength suppressed once again.
Soul Pressure (race foundation level, active skill): When activated, it creates an immense domain. All enemies within the area who have a soul intensity not exceeding that of the host will experience a certain degree of soul intensity weakening.
At the same time, countless threads, only perceivable by the soul, wrapped swiftly around Wen Yu's body.
These threads seemed like stubborn parasites, which Wen Yu could not sever regardless of his attempts. Even when using skills, he could not break the connection between them and himself; they were parasitically attached to him, and for now, he could not discern any effect.
However, when Wen Yu realized this and quickly activated the Dream Come True skill system to strengthen himself in an attempt to catch up to Ross's soul intensity, the next moment, a powerful gravitational pull emanated from the threads, continually tugging at Wen Yu's soul power and rapidly transferring it to Ross.
In a short time, the soul intensity increase provided by the Dream Come True skill system was actually halved by these threads!
The second and even third rounds of weakening…
By pulling the enemy's strength to the same level as his own and then enhancing himself through skills, Ross aimed to crush him in soul intensity!
So, when Wen Yu straightened up once more, he found himself facing an opponent whose soul intensity was dozens of times higher than his own!
The balance of power had instantly reversed!
Ross was not in a hurry to eliminate Wen Yu. He seemed to savor the sweet taste brought by the sudden surge in soul intensity, and this was also the fundamental reason Ross wanted to take care of Wen Yu himself!
Every soul system expert, no, every expert with a soul intensity higher than Ross, was to him like a complete vitality pill. As a demonic clan member born less than a hundred years ago, Ross had already raised his soul intensity to this level through just a few uses of the soul balance effect—this time, Ross's soul intensity surged dozens of times!
A perfect harvest!
Moreover, the soul pressure suppressed Wen Yu's soul intensity, and the threads had drained half of the amplification brought by Wen Yu's Dream Come True skill system. At this moment, Ross was in no rush to attack.
Because he firmly believed that time was on his side! Whether it was the clown and the Heaven-Piercing Immortal Emperor, or the Faceless and the Black Cloth Monster, both battlefields had the advantage.
Time indeed stood on their side.
However, Wen Yu could no longer wait...
Reality and illusion. The illusion conversion activated once more, bringing Wen Yu several times of amplification. But under the pull of the threads, these amplifications flowed swiftly into Ross's body, and in a short time, Wen Yu lost fifty percent of the soul intensity he had gained through reality and illusion.
