Chapter 447: Chapter 447 Dual Pupil Martial Soul Gives Birth to Soul Skill

After unrolling the scroll, the four characters that first came into view were ”Soul Restoring Sky Formation.”

Just as Elder Yang had mentioned, the Soul Restoring Sky Formation was a fourth-grade Formation. With Ye Qingchen’s current strength, there was almost no chance of setting it up on his own. However, Ye Qingchen felt confident he could attempt to repair his Martial Soul by just utilizing the formation knowledge within.

After all, Ye Qingchen possessed the Immortal Array Canon and had an incredibly high level of insight. He knew which aspects of the formation would be helpful and which would be useless. After glancing over it once, he had already devised a plan.

To be cautious, Ye Qingchen studied the Soul Restoring Sky Formation three times. He ensured he had a thorough understanding of it before taking out the Ironwood Soul Flower to begin repairing his Dual Pupil Martial Soul.

Ye Qingchen first placed the Ironwood Soul Flower in his hand, then slowly began to refine it with the Ancient Jade Spiritual Fire. Although the Fen Tian Earth Fire was more domineering and could refine the flower more efficiently, what he needed now was a steady stream of medicinal power. This, combined with the records in the Soul Restoring Sky Formation, was necessary to repair his Martial Soul, making the relatively mild Ancient Jade Spiritual Fire more suitable.

As the medicinal power of the Ironwood Soul Flower entered his sea of consciousness, Ye Qingchen promptly circulated his Vitality Force, enveloping the power and moving it toward his Dual Pupil Martial Soul. The Martial Soul sensed the medicinal power and began to frantically unleash its devouring force, eager to quickly absorb it and nourish itself.

But how could Ye Qingchen repair the Dual Pupil Martial Soul so carelessly? He first split off a portion of his Soul Power to suppress the Martial Soul. Then, enveloping the medicinal power, he followed the pathways recorded in the Soul Restoring Sky Formation, weaving it around the Dual Pupil Martial Soul. This dual-focused state demanded an almost superhuman level of spiritual power and control, yet Ye Qingchen, being a sixth-grade Pill King, handled it with relative ease.

In a quarter of an hour, the Ironwood Soul Flower was completely refined. Ye Qingchen guided the medicinal power to establish a circulation route around the Dual Pupil Martial Soul. The medicinal power flowed continuously along this route, and with each circulation, a fraction of it was absorbed by the Dual Pupil Martial Soul.

Though it was still being absorbed by the Dual Pupil Martial Soul, Ye Qingchen estimated that this method made the process more than tenfold effective. As the Dual Pupil Martial Soul was nourished by the medicinal power of the Ironwood Soul Flower, the gap within it gradually began to close. Although the speed was slow, the effect was tangible, which thrilled Ye Qingchen. He continued to control the flow of medicinal power along the predetermined route.

This process lasted for over four hours, and the sky had long since darkened, but Ye Qingchen showed no sign of stopping. The medicinal power of the Ironwood Soul Flower was almost depleted, but the gap in the Dual Pupil Martial Soul had already been mended. Sensing that it was still absorbing the medicinal power, Ye Qingchen naturally refused to waste any of it.

Just as he was nearing the end of the repair, the quiet air around him suddenly began to surge violently. Countless streams of Spiritual Energy spontaneously converged around his formation. Eventually, even the Defensive Array could not withstand the onslaught and collapsed with a crash.

The Spiritual Energy began to rush wildly into Ye Qingchen’s sea of consciousness, and the Dual Pupil Martial Soul greedily consumed all of it. Ye Qingchen could no longer maintain the controlled flow of medicinal power, which was instantly devoured by the Martial Soul.

Ye Qingchen understood that his Dual Pupil Martial Soul was now fully restored. This massive influx was Spiritual Energy the Martial Soul had autonomously drawn to nourish itself, now that its defect was repaired. He hardly needed to deliberately control it as the Spiritual Energy surged in ceaselessly. While the Dual Pupil Martial Soul devoured the energy, a very small portion also entered Ye Qingchen’s sea of Qi.

Yet, this tiny fraction directly advanced Ye Qingchen’s strength to the third layer of the Martial King Realm. One could only imagine how much Spiritual Energy the Dual Pupil Martial Soul had absorbed.

An hour later, the surrounding Spiritual Energy gradually calmed down. The Dual Pupil Martial Soul trembled in a surprisingly human-like manner, much like a person letting out a contented burp after eating their fill, appearing completely satisfied.

My strength has also been raised to the third layer of the Martial King Realm. It seems the Dual Pupil Martial Soul has been completely repaired. From now on, not only can I continue to cultivate, but the restored Martial Soul will likely keep bringing me surprises. Ye Qingchen reflected. He had vaguely felt a change in his Dual Pupil Martial Soul while it was absorbing the Spiritual Energy.

However, at that time, the Martial Soul was beyond his control, making it impossible for him to investigate. Now that Ye Qingchen had regained control over his body, the first thing he did was activate his Dual Pupil Martial Soul to explore its current changes.

The most evident change was that upon activating his Dual Pupil Martial Soul, Ye Qingchen could clearly perceive everything within a thousand-meter radius. Whether it was a bird in the sky or an insect underground, nothing escaped the detection of his Dual Pupil Martial Soul. He could even see the blood vessels and the flow of blood within these creatures.

This alone made it considerably stronger than before. To his astonishment, just as he activated his Dual Pupil Martial Soul, a piece of information suddenly appeared in his mind:

”Martial Soul Skill: Blood Wheel Eye! By observing an opponent’s Spiritual Energy flow, you can copy the execution pathways of their Martial Techniques and make them your own. The lower the level of the Martial Technique, the higher the success rate, and vice versa.”

Blood Wheel Eye? A new Martial Soul skill born from perfecting the Dual Pupil Martial Soul? I can copy an opponent’s Martial Techniques... will I ever lack for them again?

Upon seeing this information, Ye Qingchen was shocked for a moment before bursting into hearty laughter.

This was an absolutely heaven-defying divine skill!

Although it couldn’t directly enhance his combat strength, the ability to copy an opponent’s Martial Techniques was a cheat-like ability. Setting aside the power boost from copied Martial Techniques, simply understanding them would reveal an opponent’s weaknesses, allowing for more effective counterattacks.

Another point was that he would no longer need to bother acquiring those rare and extraordinarily valuable Martial Techniques. As long as someone used them in front of him, he would have a chance to copy them directly with his Blood Wheel Eye.

If he ended up with more than he could use, he could even compile them into manuals and sell them for Cultivation Resources. It was truly the best of both worlds.

After calming down, however, Ye Qingchen also noticed the word ”chance” mentioned in the new ability’s description. He just didn’t know how high this so-called chance was, as it wasn’t specified. If the copying chance was too low, then this skill would be of little value.
