Chapter 8: Testing Soul Skills!

In the afternoon, the sun shone brightly and a gentle breeze blew. Yu Tianyun and the other two returned to Yu Yuanzhen's residence on the mountaintop to begin their cultivation.

Yu Tianyun entered the gravity training room without hesitation. He knew that in order to continuously improve his strength, he had to constantly challenge himself.

At this moment, he needs to adapt to the new physical changes and make full use of the power brought by the second spirit ring.

Upon entering the training room, Yu Tianyun felt a gravity three times stronger than normal.

However, unlike before, he is now 1.65 meters tall, and his body has become stronger, with hard and full muscles, like a robust calf.

He exuded an explosive power that left people in awe.

Before absorbing the spirit ring, Yu Tianyun struggled slightly under three times the gravity, but now, with the blessing of the spirit ring, his body has been comprehensively strengthened.

The enhancement effect brought by the Millennium Soul Ring was very significant, allowing him to easily cope with this high-intensity training.

At this moment, he found himself in an environment with three times the gravity and began to move his body.

He lightly touched the ground with his toes, leaped up gracefully, and then landed quietly; then he leaped up again, repeating this process, each time jumping higher than the last.

After jumping a dozen times, he stopped and began swinging his arms, throwing punches rapidly forward.

At first, after each punch, he would pause for a second, then retract his fist, and then throw another punch. He repeated this action over and over, but the speed of his punches gradually increased.

Later on, he was able to throw as many as ten punches in a single second! This high-frequency punching state lasted for about ten breaths before he slowly retracted his fists.

At this moment, his breathing was slightly rapid, but it soon returned to calm and ease.

However, he felt that three times the gravity was no longer sufficient to meet his needs, and the benefits of the training were becoming relatively slow. Therefore, he reached out and touched the wall, continuing to channel his soul power. He only stopped when the gravity increased to 3.5 times.

The instant his hand left the wall, a strong pressure immediately struck.

Then, he began to slowly move his body, allowing his internal organs to gradually adapt to the surrounding environment.

Time passed by, and after a quarter of an hour, Yu Tianyun began a series of training exercises, including push-ups, sit-ups, and squats.

Half an hour later, he was soaking wet, as if he had just been pulled out of the river.

"Indeed, 3.5 times the gravity is just right. The millennium soul ring I obtained this time has indeed significantly improved my strength!" Yu Tianyun thought to himself after fully understanding his own power.

Next, it's time to test the power of the soul skill.

So, Yu Tianyun left the gravity training room and went to the courtyard next door.

In the center of the courtyard stood a huge, smooth black stone, gleaming with a mysterious light like obsidian.

The boulder is three meters high, five meters long, and three meters wide. Like a giant pebble, it emits a dim luster, seemingly proclaiming its indestructible nature.

Yu Tianyun arrived in front of the boulder, summoned his martial soul Blue Lightning Tyrannosaurus Rex, and his body was covered in fine lightning that gathered on his forehead to form a lightning symbol. Two spirit rings were placed around his body.

At this moment, a bright purple soul ring lit up, and Yu Tianyun's hands were enveloped in lightning, as if he were wearing gloves shaped like dragon claws.

Yu Tianyun opened his hands and clenched them together, feeling the power filling his hands, then looked at the boulder in front of him.

I wondered to myself if my two and a half years of training could leave a mark on this stone with this palm strike.

The boulder before them was no ordinary boulder. According to Yu Yuanzhen, it was a meteorite from outer space called the Black Light Jade Stone, capable of withstanding the full force of an offensive Soul Saint without breaking.

Yu Tianyun refocused his attention and stood ten meters away, preparing to test a ranged attack first.

With a sudden swing of his right arm, the dragon claw glove attached to his right hand flew out rapidly, its speed as fast as lightning, striking the boulder in the blink of an eye.

A thunderous boom came from the boulder. Yu Tianyun walked closer and saw that the boulder was as smooth as ever.

"As expected, there wasn't even a trace left."

Yu Tianyun didn't care, after all, even a Soul Saint couldn't break this stone.

Next, Yu Tianyun retreated to a distance of thirty meters and unleashed his Thunder Dragon Claw.

Judging from its momentum, it's about the same as when it was ten meters away.

He struck five or six times in succession, and at one point, he suddenly had the idea to clench his fist and unleash a Thunder Dragon Claw.

After several tests, its power was similar to that of the Thunder Dragon Claw, but it was more concentrated and had a longer range. However, it did not cover as wide an area as the Thunder Dragon Claw, nor did it have the tearing effect of claws.

Yu Tianyun simply called this form the Thunder Dragon Fist.

After several tests, Yu Tianyun found that the Thunder Dragon Claw could maintain maximum damage within 35 meters and up to 50 meters; the Thunder Dragon Fist could maintain maximum damage within 50 meters and up to 70 meters.

Yu Tianyun stopped, sat cross-legged, and began to meditate to restore his soul power.

With his current soul power, he can only unleash twenty Thunder Dragon Claw strikes.

"Since the Thunder Dragon Claw can be released in the form of a fist, I wonder if it's possible to concentrate the energy in the fingers and release it?" Yu Tianyun asked in a flash of inspiration.

Like the Six Meridian Divine Sword, or like Piccolo's Demon King's Demon Beam Cannon, how can all power be concentrated and released at a single point? This would inevitably greatly increase the penetrating power and range.

Without hesitation, Yu Tianyun began his experiment after recovering his soul power.

He rekindled his second spirit ring, and his right hand was covered with a dense layer of lightning.

Feeling the lightning power enveloping his right hand,

He began to slowly guide the power of lightning in his right hand, concentrating it on his middle and index fingers.

During the guidance process, Yu Tianyun found that the power of thunder was very difficult to control. His right hand trembled slightly, and soon a layer of fine beads of sweat appeared on his forehead.

As time passed, the power of lightning became increasingly unstable. Two fingers began to swell and ache, and after a while, the pain in the two fingers intensified, and the power of lightning in the right hand became increasingly difficult to control.

Yu Tianyun immediately abandoned the pull, and the lightning power in his right hand slowly dissipated.

He then discovered that his middle and index fingers had become red and swollen, and the muscles in his fingers would cause a sharp, stabbing pain if he moved them.

"It seems I can't continue practicing. I didn't expect that gathering the power of lightning would be so dangerous."

"Judging from the current situation, to gather the power of thunder into the fingers, one must have sufficient control, and the strength of the fingers must be able to withstand the extremely concentrated power of thunder."

"It seems I need to try more in the coming days and focus on strengthening my fingers," Yu Tianyun thought to himself.

Then Yu Tianyun could only continue to experiment with the use of the Thunder Dragon Claw with his left hand.

I've already learned about the ranged Thunder Dragon Claw.

He began practicing the melee mode of Thunder Dragon Claw.

First, they used a claw-shaped tool to strike the boulder, testing its strength by striking it repeatedly.

Then, clench your fist and test the strength of the fist shape, repeatedly swinging and striking.

For a time, booming explosions rang out continuously. It was unclear how long it lasted, but the explosions only stopped when Yu Tianyun's soul power was exhausted.

After testing, he discovered that the Thunder Dragon Claw in close combat is very energy-efficient, essentially only enhancing the amplification soul skills of both hands, and only consuming soul power when it hits the target.

At this moment, the sun had gradually sunk to the horizon, hanging in the western sky like a dazzling red ball, painting the vast horizon like a magnificent red glow.

Yu Tianyun slowly embarked on his journey home, heading towards the quiet courtyard where he lived.

The maid Xiaoyue had already prepared a sumptuous meal in the room. She quietly rested her chin on one hand, leaned on the table, and stared at the door, like a young wife waiting for her husband to return. She was almost turning herself into a statue waiting for her husband.

As Yu Tianyun slowly walked into the courtyard, Xiaoyue immediately stood up, her face beaming with joy, and said, "Young Master, you're finally back! We've been preparing the meal for you all this time, waiting for you here!"

"Didn't we agree that you didn't have to wait for me? You can eat first. Sometimes I get so engrossed in studying cultivation techniques that I might lose track of time," Yu Tianyun said softly.

"Young Master isn't here, how dare I eat alone? The food has gone cold, let me heat it up for you," Xiaoyue quickly replied.

"No need for that trouble. These dishes are still warm, it's alright," Yu Tianyun replied gently.

"Xiaoyue, come sit down and eat with us," he added.
