After several experiments, the results were not very promising, which also meant that it was nearly impossible for Wen Yu to drastically enhance his soul strength through the soul balance.
The strategic significance of the soul balance was suddenly diminished by more than half.
In other words, this skill was merely a simple nuclear weapon, not suitable for conventional power. Fortunately, Wen Yu had Faceless activate the soul battlefield this time, preserving this trump card that could be used once every fifty years.
However, it was uncertain whether this skill could be effective against a sovereign...
This thought abruptly emerged in Wen Yu's mind, startling even himself. Yet upon reflection, this speculation seemed plausible.
The greater the restrictions on a power, in some respects, the stronger it must be...
Thinking of this, Wen Yu suddenly recalled Tang Haofei's life and death battle resolution.
The side effects of the life and death battle resolution could not be eliminated by the dream come true skill system, and the cooldown time could also be somewhat classified under side effects.
Now it appeared that these two skills could be considered the two most unique abilities Wen Yu had encountered.
So, was there any commonality between the two skills...
After thinking for a moment, Wen Yu shook his head.
This question was merely a matter of divergent thinking; whether it was true or not, Wen Yu couldn’t confirm, so contemplating it was pointless.
...
After addressing the issue with the soul balance, Wen Yu once again turned his attention to the new skills of Faceless and Victor.
His several spirit pets had long been trained to a father-level existence, and accordingly, the new skills generated from their upgrades were naturally absurdly strong.
Faceless and Victor, as well as Xing and Lolo, all acquired foundation level skills.
However, a quick glance revealed that none of the new skills of the spirit pets had produced rare skills that could develop a new skill system or induce a qualitative change; instead, they were all enhancement-type skills or limit-breaking abilities that could only serve as icing on the cake.
Resistance to Death (race foundation level, passive skill): Born for battle, must also die for battle. After acquiring this skill, the host will have a strong resistance to death; when nearing death, the power hidden within the body will be fully activated, instantly restoring the host's state to its peak!
After exiting combat, the host's physical quality cap will increase by 10,000 points.
Note: The cooldown time for this skill is seven days.
A skill that combines life preservation and limit breaking, when placed on a conventional level eight peak practitioner, is enough to support a sequence-level expert—merely the limit-breaking effect is outstanding.
At level eight, every activation of resistance to death can elevate the physical quality cap by 80,000 points; although there is a cooldown, with only a seven-day wait, its terrifying nature is self-evident, and it can be regarded as a weakened version of the life and death battle resolution.
However, when this skill was placed on Faceless, it seemed somewhat redundant.
80,000 points of physical quality cap in seven days—Wen Yu could easily boost that by much more with just a word!
Moreover, with the flesh and blood chapter and super destiny fight at hand, not to mention that Faceless fundamentally didn’t require the life-preserving capability of resistance to death, this life-preserving effect was indeed optional for Faceless.
Having it is good, but not having it is just as fine.
In short, this was merely a useless thing that could be kept but should not be the main battle skill.
However, there was no need for a cleanup since Wen Yu didn’t have a better skill at hand, so this thing would just be kept for Faceless for now.
Victor's skill, on the other hand, perplexed Wen Yu even more.
Reality and Illusion: Super Regeneration (Ethereal derived ability) (soul master derived ability) (race foundation level, active skill): Illusory power enhances the host, partially altering the nature of the host's body!
