Douluo V: Daily Intelligence - I Want All of Tang San's Opportunities

Su Yuntao also realized the gap between himself and the Soul Emperor.

It wasn't obvious when he was ambushed, but when they faced each other head-on, the opponent's soul power and sustained output clearly gave him the upper hand. Although he was able to hold his own for a few moves, his soul power reserves were far inferior to Leng Qiushan's, and if he continued to hold on, he would only be slowly depleted.

Leng Qiushan made another move, but this time Su Yuntao did not take the hit. Instead, he turned and retreated towards the outside of the city lord's mansion. He took several steps with the Silver Moon Step to create distance, and at the same time activated Shadow Lurk. When he passed through a broken wall, his figure suddenly disappeared in the shadows, and his aura almost vanished. He had already turned sideways and flipped into an empty residential courtyard.

Leng Qiushan stopped in front of the broken wall, his gaze sweeping across the empty alleyway ahead, his brows furrowed. He had lost all trace of Su Yuntao.

Su Yuntao leaned against the shadows of the corner of the courtyard wall, held his breath and waited for a while. Only after confirming that the footsteps outside were gradually fading away did he slowly exhale.

Hiding isn't a solution; Leng Qiushan is still in the city and could find him again at any time.

He lowered his head and took out the soul bone he had found inside the Golden-Winged Roc from his storage ring.

He hadn't had a chance to examine it closely before, but now that he held it in his hand, he realized that this soul bone was not quite what he had expected.

This is not the torso bone, nor is it a typical part like the left arm or right leg.

In his hands lay a pair of bone-wing-like structures, symmetrical on both sides, with thin and light bone plates, a dark golden luster on the surface, slightly upturned edges with a distinct curve, and a smooth and graceful overall shape, which looked like a pair of wings that had not yet unfolded when held in his hand.

This is an external soul bone, and it is an extremely rare flying type of external soul bone.

Su Yuntao stared at the pair of bone wings in his hand for a long time, his heart pounding.

Flying-type external soul bones are considered extremely rare and highly sought-after items in the world of soul masters, and are seldom seen even in large families with thousands of years of history.

He suppressed his excitement, pressed the bone wings close to his back, and slowly channeled his soul power into them.

The dark golden light on the surface of the soul bone began to brighten gradually after it came into contact with his soul power. The structure of the two bone wings began to extend towards his shoulder blades, and the edges gradually adhered to his skin. The warm power spread along his spine until the bone wings completely merged into his back.

An hour later, Su Yuntao opened his eyes, feeling a strange lightness on his back.

He tried to gently activate it with his mind, and a pair of dark golden bone wings silently unfolded from both sides of his shoulder blades, with a wingspan of about two meters, and a faint golden light emanated from the bone wings.

He tried moving the bone wings, and the golden bone wings opened and closed, the movement was much smoother than he had expected.

He couldn't help but chuckle. Flying was everyone's dream, and now, he had achieved it.

He retracted his bone wings and sat up straight, glancing towards the doorway.

A glint of light flashed in his eyes. As long as he fully mastered this external soul bone, even if he was discovered again, his life would be guaranteed once he was in the air.

Without further hesitation, he focused his mind on the system, and the deduction officially began.

A pair of dark golden bone wings slowly unfolded from the back of a golden figure. Su Yuntao's attention was completely focused on it, and he followed the golden figure to repeatedly hone his skills in using the Golden-Winged Roc Bone.

[In the second year, you practiced the unfolding, folding, and gliding movements of the Golden-Winged Roc Bone day after day. From initially only being able to barely spread your wings and maintain balance for a moment, to being able to glide steadily at low altitudes, you completely mastered the basic flight skills of this external soul bone. You named this external soul bone "Golden Roc Wing Bone."]

[In the eighth year, your control over the Golden Roc Wing Bones has become increasingly precise and effortless. The wings have become an integral part of your body, no longer requiring conscious thought to drive them. You can instantly deploy your bone wings to change direction while running, and you can also switch between air and ground at high speeds. Your flight posture is more fluid and natural than most avian soul beasts.]

[In the eighteenth year, you began experimenting with using the Golden Roc's wing bones for offense. The bony structure at the edges of the wings could generate a cutting force like wind blades when flapping at high speed, allowing you to perform continuous turning attacks in mid-air when combined with your claw techniques. You developed a fighting style that used your wings to assist in close combat, making the rhythm of offense and defense significantly more varied.]

[In your thirtieth year, you have perfectly combined the Golden Roc Wing Bone with your fourth Soul Skill, "Golden Feather Sky-Splitting." You have developed two combat modes: in close combat, you gather Soul Power at the edge of the bone wings, using the wingtips or edges as blades for high-speed slashing attacks; in ranged combat, you rapidly flap the bone wings to release a dense barrage of wind blades, covering a fan-shaped area in front of you. You named this fighting style "Sky-Splitting Slash" and "Golden Feather Edge," one for close combat and one for long-range, combining offense and defense.]

The golden light slowly dissipated, and Su Yuntao opened his eyes. A warm sensation came from his back, and the Golden Roc Wing Bone felt as familiar as an old partner that had been dormant in his body for thirty years. He tried to spread his wings and flap them gently. A light lift lifted his body slightly off the ground, and he landed almost silently.

He retracted his bone wings and looked out the window. As the Golden Roc Wing Bone was absorbed, his soul power advanced again, reaching level 46.

With the perfect combination of the Golden Roc Wing Bone and the fourth soul skill, Golden Feather Sky Splitter, Su Yuntao believed that even if he faced Leng Qiushan again, he would no longer have to flee in such a sorry state as before.

But that's not enough; he wants more than just a position that guarantees victory.

Since the intelligence points have already been used, I might as well go all the way and use them all. I can still use my intelligence points to deduce three more times, so I might as well use them!

Su Yuntao turned his gaze from the window to the pale golden light screen in front of him that had not yet completely dissipated.

Without any hesitation, a new notification appeared in the center of the light screen:

[Detectable ultimate skill: Mysterious Jade Hand. Proceed with the deduction?]

Su Yuntao didn't hesitate for long before making his decision.

Yes.

The golden light curtain unfolded once more, and a golden figure sat cross-legged in the center of the curtain, with his hands placed in front of his knees, his fingertips gleaming with a lustrous jade-like luster.

[In the tenth year, you studied diligently and mastered the basic operating procedures of the Mystic Jade Hand. Through prolonged practice, your hands gradually lost their usual blood-red color, transforming into a warm, translucent jade-like luster. Ordinary swords and blades could no longer leave marks on your palms; you had officially entered the beginner stage of the Mystic Jade Hand.]

[In his twentieth year, Xuan Yu Hand's skill level advanced from the beginner stage to the advanced stage. The jadeification of his hands deepened further, and the flow of soul power between his palms and fingers became extremely smooth. Both his defensive power and power generation efficiency improved significantly compared to when he first started. When used in conjunction with his first soul skill, the hardness and cutting power of his claws were noticeably enhanced.]
