Chapter 317 The Evil Emperor's Formidable Abilities

With the Evil Emperor's final roar, a massive 100,000-year spirit ring appeared in the sky. The energy within this spirit ring was terrifyingly powerful, especially since it contained seven golden patterns. No wonder it was one of the top three spirit beasts on Douluo Star.

The spirit ring slowly slipped onto Yang Podi's main spirit, and at the same time, a piece of torso bone appeared on Yang Podi's body. This was the last piece of spirit bone that Yang Podi was missing.

As the energy of the spirit ring and spirit bone slowly merged into Yang Podi's body, his aura surged once again.

However, as the breath surged and the body received a massive influx of energy, the mental and physical abilities seemed to undergo another transformation, reaching a certain limit.

At that moment, a huge bolt of lightning appeared in the sky, and the whole world seemed to be wailing. Yang Podi himself seemed to be suppressed in some way. This suppression was not the suppression of soul power or martial soul, but more like the suppression of some kind of rule.

The Heavenly Restriction, or the Heavenly Dao Restriction, is a rule set by the God Realm that prohibits the existence of beings who have reached level 100 and become gods on the entire Douluo Star.

Yang Podi seemed to sense that he was about to break through to level 100, but it was this suppression of heaven and earth that prevented him from taking this final step. The level 100 that originally seemed so far away now seemed like he could step into it at any time, but he was unable to.

The sacrifice took only half a day, and Yang Podi had already fully absorbed the energy of the Evil Emperor's Soul Ring and Soul Bone.

Yang Podi felt that he was now stronger and more terrifying than before. The power of his body and soul had once again achieved a leapfrog growth. In his eyes, the former Title Douluo and even Limit Douluo were like ants.

Especially after Yang Podi opened his eyes, the entire world seemed to change rapidly with just the opening and closing of his eyes. In the short time it took for his eyes to open and close, everything in the world seemed to vanish into thin air.

This is the power of time, and one of the reasons why Yang Podi went to great lengths, even at the cost of countless hours and traveling tens of thousands of miles, to find the Evil Emperor. Only the Evil Emperor could grant him this powerful force.

As for why the Evil Emperor had to sacrifice himself, it was also to maximize the Evil Emperor's power so that he could grasp the essence of the power of time. Absorbing soul rings was a waste of a lot of energy compared to sacrificing himself.

Yang Podi carefully observed his body and found that the power throughout his body seemed to have undergone a transformation. He already possessed some divine power, but now he felt that the power was more solid, and his whole body seemed to possess infinite divine power.

His physical strength also increased, and his entire body became perfectly integrated, just like a divine body. Moreover, there was no rejection between any of his soul bones and soul rings, as if they were originally a whole.

Even more surprisingly, the original two external soul bones, Tiger Eagle Wings and Crocodile King Spear, have also evolved into 100,000-year soul bones.

The entire Tiger Eagle Wings underwent a tremendous change, turning from its original silver color to golden yellow, perfectly matching the color of the original martial soul when it was used. Moreover, it became faster and stronger.

The Golden Crocodile King's tail bone seems to have undergone even greater changes. It no longer just covers the entire tailbone, but can even be integrated with the entire spine, making it excellent in both offense and defense. It can even be used as a semi-divine weapon, a gun and a back armor.

Yang Podi's mind flashed, and all the soul bones on his body lit up, instantly making his entire body look like a set of soul bone armor. In particular, the entire armor was a single piece, like a divine artifact.

After Yang Podi retrieved his Soul Bone Armor, he carefully observed his hands. In particular, when his hands began to clench into fists, there seemed to be some strange power between his fingertips, as if he could feel the Great Dao of Heaven and Earth. He was probably already able to basically feel the rules of Douluo Star. Normally, only a god could feel the rules.

If Yang Podi weren't currently on Douluo Star, or somewhere that could shield him from the power of Douluo Star's rules, he could instantly become a god.

It seems that coming to see the Evil Emperor was the right decision. Not only did the soul rings and soul bones grant him four extremely powerful skills, but his body also achieved another breakthrough.

The first skill of the eighth soul ring of the main body martial soul: Light of Time and Space, can use the power of time and space to attack enemies, can condense time, and can also control time, ignoring defense.

The second skill of the eighth spirit ring of the main body martial soul is the Light of Destruction, which can be used to attack enemies with the light of destruction, capable of destroying everything.

The first skill of the torso soul bone: Wrath of the Evil Emperor, a mental attack skill and a mental domain skill. Within the skill's range, the enemy's mind suffers a devastating blow.

The second skill of the torso soul bone: Evil Emperor's Illusion, can pull the enemy into an illusion, reducing the opponent's strength by 50% and increasing the user's strength by 50%, making them completely at the user's mercy.

Upon seeing these four soul skills, Yang Podi couldn't help but swallow hard. These four soul skills could be said to be a display of the Evil Emperor's strength, each possessing one of the Evil Emperor's four abilities: mental force field, mental illusion, spacetime power, and destructive power. These four skills can all be called divine skills. In terms of sheer power, they are probably no weaker than the ninth soul skill of his Soul-Breaking Spear.

However, his ninth soul skill, Sun Shooting and Sky Support, is more versatile, while the four soul skills given to him by the Evil Emperor are all biased towards mental power.

Yang Podi's only regret was that he already had a head soul bone; otherwise, if the Evil Emperor had bestowed a head soul bone upon him, the effect would probably have been even better.

Yang Podi glanced at his spiritual world and found that, in addition to the original Soul-Breaking Spear and the golden giant, there was now an Evil Eye, which should be the soul of the Evil Emperor.

Yang Podi asked the Evil Emperor with some curiosity, "Senior Evil Emperor, may I ask why you would cooperate with the Soul Masters of the Sun Moon Empire?"

A bitter voice came from the Evil Eye: "Actually, I have no choice. Although our Evil Eye clan has strong spiritual power, our physical body is relatively weak. We don't have a very good defense against attacks from high-level Soul Masters and Soul Beasts."

"Our cooperation with the Sun Moon Empire can be considered a win-win situation. The Sun Moon Empire protects our safety, and we assist the Sun Moon Empire in researching soul tools and even assist them in researching martial souls."

"Our Evil Eye clan possesses formidable spiritual power. If we cooperate with human Soul Masters, we can significantly enhance their eyesight, perception, and even spiritual power. This allows human Soul Masters to inscribe more refined runes and create more advanced Soul Tools when crafting them."

Upon hearing this, Yang Podi immediately came up with a good idea: "Senior Evil Emperor, in order to protect the development of your clan, I want to move the entire Evil Eye Clan to Mount Almo on Douluo Continent. That is where my family is located. Our family built a Heavenly Journey Academy there, mainly for teaching and educating people."

"I plan to open a Soul Tool Research Branch at Tianxing Academy. At that time, Tianxing Academy and the Evil Eye Clan can cooperate to jointly research Soul Tools, and both sides can coexist for mutual benefit and lasting peace."

Hearing this, the Evil Emperor seemed somewhat conflicted: "This is probably not a good thing. The human race and the soul beast race on the Douluo Continent are too hostile. Human soul masters will stop at nothing to hunt for soul rings. If my Evil Eye Clan goes to the Douluo Continent, we will probably face annihilation."

Yang Podi could only sigh upon hearing this. It was indeed difficult for humans and soul beasts to coexist in the Douluo Continent. Moreover, he might soon be at war with the soul beast race, which would make things even more difficult.

Yang Podi thought it over carefully and finally gave up on the idea of ​​relocating the Evil Eye Clan, as it was impossible to do so in the short term. He would deal with the ferocious beasts in the Star Dou Great Forest later.
