94: Chapter 94 Special Soul-Type Fourth-Tier Ancient Martial Art - Soul Sea Flying Knife

After Su Wu passed the Physical Body trial, he arrived in another grand, ancient hall.

The style of this hall was completely different from the previous black jade hall.

The surrounding walls were no longer made of rough, giant stones, but were built from a translucent, glazed jade.

On the dome, there were no embedded gemstones, yet it naturally emitted a soft, serene halo.

Here, there was no domineering Law that stripped away Origin Qi, and Su Wu felt his Star Vortex recover its rotation.

However, before Su Wu could carefully examine the details of this hall.

"Hum — —!"

A majestic voice, extremely ancient as if it had traversed the endless river of time, rang out in the empty hall without any warning!

This voice lacked any emotional color, cold like a machine, yet it carried a supreme Divine Might that brooked no desecration.

"Trial-taker!"

"You have broken the fastest clearance record for the first Physical Body trial since the establishment of Starfall Palace!"

"Hidden mechanism triggered! Obtained — — Special-type reward!"

This sudden, grand announcement echoed in Su Wu's ears, causing his footsteps to pause slightly, a trace of astonishment flashing in his eyes.

"Broken the clearance speed record? A special-type reward?"

Su Wu was slightly stunned.

"It seems that behind the trials of Starfall Palace, it isn't just cold elimination, but also hidden reward mechanisms."

Just as Su Wu was secretly pondering.

The originally calm glazed walls surrounding the hall suddenly underwent a strange change.

Countless tiny, ancient golden runes, almost invisible to the naked eye, emerged slowly from the depths of the walls like awakened fireflies.

These runes emitted an extremely dazzling light, rapidly converging, intertwining, and arranging themselves in mid-air.

The Origin Qi within the entire hall gathered toward the center of those runes.

In just three breaths of time.

In the mid-air directly in front of Su Wu, the light gradually converged.

A strange short blade, about seven inches long, with a translucent, deep blue texture and a shape resembling a crescent moon, was quietly suspended there!

This short blade lacked the heavy feeling of physical metal; it looked as if it were condensed from pure water waves or light and shadow.

Around the blade, there was no leakage of sharp aura on a physical level, but as long as one gazed at it for a second, one would feel a stinging pain and trembling originating from the depths of the Soul!

"Come."

Su Wu's gaze burned. Without any hesitation, he decisively raised his right hand and beckoned into the void toward the deep blue short blade in mid-air.

Whoosh!

The short blade seemed to possess its own intelligence. Upon sensing Su Wu's summons, it actually emitted an extremely faint tremolo, then transformed into a deep blue stream of light, flying straight into Su Wu's palm.

The moment that translucent short blade fell into his palm.

"Hiss..."

Su Wu couldn't help but gasp.

The moment he held it, he didn't feel the coldness of metal, nor did he feel any weight.

It was an extremely eerie sensation, as if what he was holding was not a blade!

A strange, bone-chilling fluctuation madly surged into his Meridians, then flowed backward, directly breaking through the obstacles of his Physical Body, and fiercely drilled into his mind, reaching straight to that Star Emperor Level Soul Sea that had just transformed not long ago!

Boom!

Along with the influx of this strange fluctuation, a piece of core information belonging to this ancient martial art was read by Su Wu.

[Weapon Name: soul sea flying dagger]

[Grade: Fourth-Tier Special Ancient Martial Art (Soul-type)]

[Characteristic Analysis: This blade is not forged from ordinary iron, but is condensed from the 'Soul-Fixing Divine Jade' of the ancient star sea, supplemented by high-level Soul Laws.]

[Core Power: Lodging and Instant Kill! This ancient martial art can be stored directly in the Martial Artist's Soul Sea, nurtured and refined by the Martial Artist's Divine Thought. When facing an enemy, it can ignore distance and spatial obstacles, achieving instant activation with a single thought!]

[Killing Mechanism: This is a purely Soul-type killing ancient martial art! When attacking, it can instantly release a powerful Soul shockwave that surpasses the caster's own Divine Thought. It can ignore any Origin Qi shield and physical defense, directly piercing through the enemy's glabella and striking the opponent's most vulnerable Soul Origin!]

[Effect: Once it hits, at the very least, it will cause the opponent to fall into a brief Soul shock, producing a pause and dizziness; at worst, it will directly tear apart the opponent's Soul Sea of Consciousness, turning them into a vegetable shell that has lost consciousness! Even a high-level expert one or two Realms higher than the caster, if caught unprepared and careless, will suffer an irreversible, heavy loss under this sudden Soul assassination!]

After reading the extremely domineering weapon introduction in his mind.

In Su Wu's deep eyes, a flash of undisguised, immense surprise instantly erupted!

"Fourth-Tier special Soul-type ancient martial art! It's actually this kind of rare, powerful weapon!"

Su Wu's hand holding the short blade trembled slightly due to excitement.

He knew too well the value of this reward!

In the vast Universe, physical ancient martial arts, while precious, can always be obtained if one has enough resources.

For example, the Fourth-Tier top-grade White Dragon Blade given to him by the Purple-robed Woman.

However, Soul-type ancient martial arts are truly things that can be met but not sought!

Because the Soul is the most core, yet also the most fragile part of all living beings.

The vast majority of Martial Artists, even if they have cultivated to the Star King Realm, mostly concentrate their defensive means on the Physical Body and Origin Qi.

Defenses for the Soul are often pitifully scarce.

The greatest terror of this "soul sea flying dagger" lies not in its Fourth-Tier grade, but in its "ignoring physical defense" and "instant arrival"!

Imagine it.

During a brutal close-quarters fight with a powerful enemy, when both sides are fighting to the most intense, most deadlocked critical moment.

Su Wu suddenly moves his mind, and a flying dagger that even an Origin Qi shield cannot defend against instantly pierces into the opponent's mind. Even if it only causes a 0.1-second Soul shock, it would be enough for Su Wu to chop off the opponent's head ten times!

This is definitely a trump card that can be used for a sneak attack at a critical moment!

Furthermore, Su Wu has just consumed the soul fruit, and his Divine Thought has officially stepped into the Star Emperor Realm.

Using his vast, sea-like Divine Thought to nurture and activate this Fourth-Tier Soul flying dagger, the power it erupts with will definitely make any Star Emperor expert feel horrified!

It can be said that Su Wu now even possesses the strength to kill a Peak Star Emperor.

"Good treasure. This trip to the Starfall Secret Realm, even if I don't get anything else later, this flying dagger alone has already paid for the trip."

A satisfied smile curled at the corners of Su Wu's mouth.

He no longer hesitated, and following the method of ownership he obtained in his mind, he moved his consciousness abruptly.

"Retract!"

Hum!

The translucent, deep blue short blade in Su Wu's palm instantly transformed into a beam of pure Soul light.

This beam of light directly penetrated Su Wu's palm, followed his arm, and went straight into his glabella.

Su Wu's internal vision instantly switched to his Soul Sea.

Above that vast, rippling Soul Sea emitting silver radiance.

A deep blue stream of light broke through the air and entered. After the stream of light dissipated, the "soul sea flying dagger", shaped like a crescent moon, floated quietly in the very center of the Soul Sea, emitting cold and lethal Soul fluctuations, like a deep blue moon on this spiritual ocean.

It began to continuously absorb the pure Soul water of Su Wu to nurture itself, establishing a connection with Su Wu's Soul Origin.

As easy as moving one's arm, connected by blood.

After doing all this, Su Wu let out a long breath.

He turned around, his deep gaze penetrating the hall and looking toward the passage from which he came.

At the exit of the passage, it was empty and silent.

Those various Prodigies struggling in the Source Fire and extreme cold were still trapped in the first trial, and not a single person could catch up to his terrifying clearance pace.

It's lonely at the top.

"Is the clearance speed that slow?"

Su Wu shook his head with some helplessness.

"Since they are still crawling slowly behind, I won't wait for them. I'll go ahead first and see what other good things this Domain Master expert has left behind."

Su Wu withdrew his gaze, no longer having any waiting or lingering.

He walked alone toward the deepest part of the hall.
