In Douluo Continent, the Pope used me as a substitute for my first love.

Chapter 354 Tang Shenwang Suffers Yet Another Setback

What kind of eye was that?

Originally an eerie deep blue, it was covered with a layer of blood red after Dai Mubai used his third soul skill, White Tiger Vajra Transformation. Inside were unusual pupils, and an invisible energy fluctuation emanated from those pupils.

This is... mental power?!

At that moment, not far behind Tang San, Huo Yuhao, who was extremely sensitive to spiritual power, suddenly sensed a familiar feeling. He then looked at Dai Mubai with a thoughtful expression.

Double pupils—he remembered that his ancestor's double pupils should not have any other special meaning or function besides symbolizing his ancestor's extraordinary destiny.

Moreover, Huo Yuhao had a lot of contact with Dai Mubai after ascending to the God Realm in his previous life, and he didn't remember that Dai Mubai had any mental abilities.

What exactly happened to Dai Mubai? Could it be that the reason he inexplicably lost an eye is related to this?

Huo Yuhao felt that he had vaguely touched upon the truth, but he could never quite grasp it.

At this moment, the battle in the hall changed again. Although Tang San was stunned by Dai Mubai's sudden mental attack, he only stood there for two seconds before successfully activating Ghost Shadow Tracking and putting distance between himself and Dai Mubai.

After all, Tang San was the reincarnated God King Tang. Although he was caught off guard by Dai Mubai's unexpected move, he was not so easily manipulated by Dai Mubai. After all, he had cultivated the Purple Demon Eye.

"Um?!"

Seeing that Tang San recovered his mobility so quickly, Dai Mubai's pupils contracted this time, and his originally slow and confident steps stopped.

His story begins with a record in an ancient book passed down through generations of the Xingluo royal family.

Ancient texts say that since the White Tiger lineage of the Star Luo Empire began to proliferate, there have been a few rare cases where a very few White Tiger Soul Masters were born with either double pupils or a rib that emitted soul power fluctuations from the moment of birth.

Through generations of research by the White Tiger Clan, it was finally discovered that all White Tiger Soul Masters with double pupils in their eyes possess innate and considerable mental strength, as well as strong resistance to mental attacks. Furthermore, only one or two of these White Tiger Soul Masters are able to unlock the secrets of their eyes and master mental skills similar to self-created Soul Techniques.

Those White Tiger Soul Masters whose ribs naturally emit soul power fluctuations will have extraordinary talent in cultivation speed, and they are basically destined to become Title Douluo in the future, which is extremely rare in the White Tiger lineage.

After all, it should be noted that even the current Star Luo Emperor Dai Tianfeng is only a Soul Douluo. Only when he joins forces with his empress to unleash the Martial Soul Fusion Skill Netherworld White Tiger can he unleash the power of a Title Douluo.

The existence of the strange double pupils and the ribs that innately emit soul power fluctuations, which help to improve the cultivation speed of soul masters, is a secret of the White Tiger family. A certain generation of White Tiger soul masters gave these conditions, which only appear in their own family, grand names: Double Pupils and Supreme Bone.

Therefore, after thoroughly investigating the special circumstances that have occurred in the clan's history, whenever a new descendant of the White Tiger Clan is born, they will immediately conduct an examination to check whether the person has double pupils or the Supreme Bone condition. If so, the person will be raised as the undisputed heir.

Both of these situations had not occurred in the White Tiger Clan for several generations, until this generation of Dai Mubai and Davis.

These two brothers were unprecedented in that they each exhibited the two conditions recorded in ancient books: double pupils and supreme bones. This undoubtedly brought Dai Tianfeng great joy back then.

Ancient texts specifically mention at the end that the first ancestor of the White Tiger Clan was said to possess both the Supreme Bone and double pupils. Furthermore, records indicate that the first ancestor's strength was at the level of a Peerless Douluo, and possibly even surpassed that level!

Whether this is true or not is impossible to verify. However, the current Star Luo Emperor Dai Tianfeng undoubtedly harbors the ambition to cultivate a peerless Douluo descendant so that he can rule the Star Luo Empire and devour the continent in the future.

What happened after that is best left unsaid...

Let's talk about Dai Mubai again.

Despite having one eye gouged out, his cultivation talent wasn't affected, since it was the "Supreme Bone" that could influence cultivation. In fact, he was quite lucky to have turned misfortune into blessing.

Perhaps because of the trauma of having his eyes gouged out, and the fact that he had recovered by living a carefree and decadent life in Soto City over the past few years, Dai Mubai miraculously sensed that he could vaguely mobilize the power within his remaining double pupil by chance!

Using the power of double pupils—this has only happened once or twice in the history of the White Tiger Clan… At that time, Dai Mubai was undoubtedly overjoyed, feeling that he could rekindle his hope of competing with Davis.

However, reality soon gave him a harsh reality check.

His remaining double pupil, due to the trauma it had caused, did indeed benefit Dai Mubai by granting him the potential to develop mental power. However, because of the loss of his other eye, Dai Mubai's talent in mental matters was flawed and became a constraint.

Even with his best efforts, he has only managed to develop one... self-created soul skill in the past few years? Perhaps it should be considered a rudimentary version of a self-created soul skill, which he named "Mental Oppression".

In other words, he emits special mental fluctuations through his double pupils, which intimidate his enemies. Anyone whose strength is much weaker than him may kneel down in front of him, while those of the same level may also be intimidated for a few seconds.

Hmm... I have to say, this move is alright, but it's a bit unworthy of "double pupils". After all, even a powerful Title Douluo can easily force a Soul Master to kneel down with his power.

Now, Tang San, who is clearly a whole realm weaker than Dai Mubai, was caught off guard and managed to break free of his control after only being immobilized for two seconds. How could this not make him extremely surprised?

Despite his surprise, they were still in the middle of a battle. Without further hesitation, Dai Mubai, empowered by the White Tiger Vajra Transformation, forcefully withstood the barrage of hidden weapons flying towards him and continued to spread mental pressure with his double pupils. He quickly caught up with Tang San, who was using Ghost Shadow Perception.

Then there is no more then.

"Bang!"

Dai Mubai clenched his fist and slammed Tang San into a pillar in the hall. Then he slowly withdrew his fist and dispelled the spirit possession.

The outcome is decided.

Dai Mubai looked at Tang San, who was not far away and couldn't help but spit out a mouthful of blood, his hands hanging limply at his sides. He then looked at his own disheveled state and his gaze became deep.

Although Tang San mainly relied on external forces to entangle with Dai Mubai, his performance earned Dai Mubai's approval, and he calmed down a bit.
