Chapter 30: Hu Bai's Advice to Bibi Dong, Second Light-Attribute Soul Skill, Sky Fox Assault!
Qian Daoliu's thoughts were beautiful at this moment. As the High Priest and High Priestess under the Angel God and Sea God, he and Bo Saixi would sooner or later have to sacrifice themselves for the inheritor.
In this life, Qian Daoliu couldn't be with Bo Saixi, but sacrificing together didn't seem impossible.
However, he felt his idea was a bit extreme and ridiculous.
Qian Renxue was his granddaughter, and he was very willing to sacrifice for her. But if Hu Bai obtained the Seagod Nine Trials, would Bo Saixi be willing to sacrifice for him?
Probably not — after all, no one would be willing to die for a stranger.
This matter could only be considered a backup candidate for a God's Trial, at least for now.
After Bibi Dong took Hu Bai away from the Worship Hall, she didn't directly flash to the Supreme Pontiff Palace but instead took him for a walk on the mountain.
Both of them were somewhat silent. Hu Bai hesitated for a moment, then said, "Teacher, can your relationship with Sister Xue not improve? I feel that the High Priests are very good to me, and Sister Xue is too. As your disciple, I don't want to see you two, mother and child, like this..."
Hu Bai knew the whole story, but since things had already happened, what could be done?
Bibi Dong's heart still loved Qian Renxue, and in the original work, the two eventually reconciled. He now only hoped that the speed of this reconciliation could be accelerated.
Otherwise, he would find himself in a dilemma in the end.
Bibi Dong was his teacher, and Qian Renxue had such a good relationship with him. If the two eventually had a huge conflict, who would he help?
Bibi Dong still didn't speak. Usually, if anyone else had spoken to her like that, she would probably tell them to shut up directly or even take action, but she couldn't do that to Hu Bai.
Initially, she took Hu Bai in because of his talent, but after interacting with him for a while, she was no longer so resistant and even developed a bit of affection.
Furthermore, Hu Bai and Hu Liena were originally twins, and their appearances were very similar—except one had snow-white long hair and the other had short brown hair—making their styles quite different.
Originally, after the last incident, she was very resistant to males, but after spending time together, she didn't know if it was because of the special nature of Hu Bai's Martial Soul or some other reason. She felt... Hu Bai could be an exception!
She understood what Hu Bai was worried about when he said these words.
Bibi Dong stroked Hu Bai's snow-white long hair and couldn't help but lower her head, smiling at him: "Don't worry, you don't need to worry about my relationship with her. Just give me a little more time."
Hu Bai had originally thought he would be scolded by Bibi Dong, but the result was this?
Was this still Bibi Dong?
She seemed to have become a bit gentler.
Although he didn't know why, since Bibi Dong said so, it meant she would take action for it. Just give her a little more time.
It's just, if Qian Renxue later learned the truth about Qian Xunji's death, would she collapse?
As for hiding it from her for a lifetime and blaming Qian Xunji's death entirely on Tang Hao—that would be a bit wishful.
When Qian Renxue underwent the Angel God Nine Trials, the truth would probably surface. If it weren't for the omnipotent Qian Daoliu's intervention during the Ninth Trial, plus the blood relationship between Qian Renxue and Bibi Dong, Qian Renxue's Ninth Trial, which was related to Bibi Dong, might not have been passed.
For the next week, the three of them—Hu Bai included—spent their days studying theoretical knowledge in a room in the Supreme Pontiff Palace. When they finished early, they would study independently. Anyway, there were many books in the Spirit Hall, and they could find something interesting to read.
But one thing to note was that, after finishing early, Bibi Dong suggested not cultivating soul power but instead continuing to look for interesting books to read.
The soul power cultivation lessons were usually held at night.
Learning knowledge was very important to them, as it would help increase their success rate when performing missions in the future.
The Martial Souls of Soul Masters in the outside world were diverse, as were the Soul Beasts. When performing missions, they couldn't always rely on the accompanying Titled Douluo to guide them, right?
Moreover, each Titled Douluo or teacher specialized in different areas. Instead of relying on others, it's better to improve oneself!
Hu Bai and the others had no objection to this, especially Hu Bai. He was particularly interested in the various Martial Souls and Soul Beasts of this world.
Although he knew the original plot, the original content didn't explain everything Tang San and the others learned; it was all simplified.
Even the Immortal Herbs in the Ice and Fire Yin-Yang Well—he only knew the few that appeared in the original work. What about those that didn't?
That would require judgment based on experience, and it would be best to consult Chrysanthemum Douluo, who had more research on this.
Where did Chrysanthemum Douluo learn about the knowledge of those Immortal Herbs? There must be a source!
It's impossible that he just knew because his Martial Soul was the Chrysanthemum—that would be too outrageous!
So Hu Bai believed that Chrysanthemum Douluo's knowledge about Immortal Herbs most likely came from the Spirit Hall. If not, he would just go and ask.
He wasn't in a hurry to spend all his time leveling up; he wanted to solidify his foundation.
After all, level doesn't mean everything. True geniuses can often fight across levels or even tiers.
To fight across levels or tiers, one needs a continuous stream of reliable trump cards. Does he have them?
Excluding the three-person Martial Soul Fusion Skill and Sky Fox Domain, he temporarily had no other strong trump cards.
For self-created lightning-element Soul Skills, he currently only knew Forest of Lightning (field control), Lightning Step, and Lightning Ball.
For self-created light-element Soul Skills, he only knew Flash Ball and Light Heal.
These were far from enough; he still needed to continue learning and increasing his reliable trump cards!
In the afternoon, it was time for the three of them to learn from Bibi Dong. She would provide one-on-one guidance.
Xie Yue was to improve his offensive methods with the Moon Blade, while Hu Liena was to develop applications for her mental power based on her first Soul Skill, trying not to make her offensive methods too singular.
As for Hu Bai, Bibi Dong could only offer various suggestions related to self-created Soul Skills based on her insights, providing him with some inspiration. Then it was up to Hu Bai to practice.
During these seven days, while learning from Qian Daoliu and Qian Renxue, Hu Bai once again learned a light-attributed Soul Skill—the Seraphim's first Soul Skill, Angelic Assault.
It involved condensing the power of light elements into a fist, forming a light shield for both offense and defense, repelling enemies in close combat, and having a purification effect.
Just like the Holy Light Heal before, the Angelic Assault Hu Bai learned did not contain divine power. He also slightly changed the name of this self-created Soul Skill to Sky Fox Assault!
