Apocalypse: Master of Soul Beasts

”When you use Soul Strike to imprint skills within your Soul Body, you’ve essentially seized control of their essence. Each skill can then exhibit unimaginable effects. The methods for applying Soul Strike and the Soul Battlefield that I just taught you are merely basic skill extensions. You can explore and master the rest on your own…

”For instance, how to use your soul pet’s skills to augment yourself within the Soul Battlefield…

”Or, another example…

”How to use an enemy’s skills to augment yourself.”

After the Demon Lord finished speaking, his Soul Body shone brightly. In the next moment, he appeared directly in front of Wen Yu.

Swiftly extending his right hand, the Demon Lord grabbed the runes representing Dislimning (S-class, Active Skill) within Wen Yu’s Soul Body and tugged gently!

A pain akin to his soul being torn from his body erupted instantaneously. Wen Yu felt a shock ripple through his Soul Body, a sensation of something vital being lost. Then, he saw the Demon Lord pressing the runes representing Dislimning directly onto his own Soul Body.

The power of Soul Strike erupted instantly. The runes of Dislimning collided with the Demon Lord’s Soul Body tens, even hundreds, of times. Then, the Dislimning skill was directly imprinted by the Demon Lord into his own Soul Body!

”This is…”

”Another function of Soul Strike: to deprive, then assimilate...

”Of course, since our souls are fundamentally different, I can only maintain this skill for a very short time after extracting it and placing it onto myself. Afterward, the skill’s runes will collapse and turn into unabsorbable Soul Energy. However, your soul pets are different…

”With the Soul Connection between a Soul Master and their soul pet, if you extract a skill from your soul pet, place it on yourself, and manage the time well, you can even reattach it to them. Plus, this method isn’t limited by skill slots…

”Therefore… the Soul Master profession is, in fact, the most suitable for utilizing this Soul Skill System. If you wish, you can augment yourself with all of your soul pets’ skills!

”With every level you gain, others acquire one new skill, while you gain access to *all* the skills possessed by your soul pets. Moreover, in the Soul Battlefield, others’ skills are often unusable. Even if they can be used, you can easily destroy them, while all ofyour skills function perfectly.

”This is an ability system that is practically unbeatable, far surpassing almost all other skill systems…”

Having heard all this, Wen Yu pondered for a moment, then looked at the Demon Lord with a peculiar expression.

”So, I don’t have Dislimning anymore…”

Looking at Wen Yu’s distressed expression, which hid a touch of cunning, the Demon Lord smiled and shook his head.

”Yes, it was just a small experiment. In a while, I will give you something better.”

”That’s great!” Wen Yu exclaimed, laughing and nodding.

...

Wen Yu was not hesitant about asking for things, even though the Demon Lord had just taught him a great deal.

He was beginning to sense that something was off…

This person called ”Demon Lord” wasn’t a chance encounter; the Almighty Demon Vine must have deliberately brought me to him!

Just now, while his soul was outside his body, he had clearly seen some things he normally couldn’t…

The being before him had Soul Strength roughly at Level 7, but there were as many as twelve skill runes entwined around his Soul Body! Normally, a professionist only gained one skill per level, yet this being had twelve… Considering what this being had just said, and this brand-new ability system seemingly tailor-made for him…

Wen Yu began to form a rough hypothesis about the Demon Lord’s identity.

He never believed his luck was *that* good, nor did he believe that love or hate in this world could exist without reason... If this being was giving him benefits, he must be plotting something, if not now, then in the distant future. Scheming, always scheming. He’s scheming against me, and while I can’t do anything about it now, surely it’s not too much to ask for some benefits, right?

The Demon Lord’s reaction was just as Wen Yu had expected; he showed no surprise.

He probably didn’t think giving me a skill was a big deal. Or rather, giving me a skill was likely part of his plan from the start…
