The Silver-White Giant Axe descended with the weight of a thousand catties, without the slightest pause!
But in the next moment, the pitch-black fourth soul ring on Xu Tianhao's body lit up immediately after.
His eyes met Long Aotian's just like that; there were no special fluctuations, nor were there any flashy special effects.
Long Aotian's movements froze, the giant axe less than ten centimeters away from Xu Tianhao's face!
If Xu Tianhao hadn't used his spirit power to protect his body, the astral wind from the giant axe would have been enough to slice open his skull!
"Fourth Soul Skill: Infinite Tsukuyomi!"
A Class 7 spiritual protection could indeed block Xu Tianhao's spiritual attacks, but what if the attack wasn't aimed at the sea of consciousness?
The effect of his Fourth Soul Skill was perverted; as long as one met his gaze, they would be pulled into a special moon reading space.
Even if one avoided eye contact, with the effect of his second soul skill, the Eye of True Sight, it became a guaranteed hit.
One could say that as long as Xu Tianhao's Eye of True Sight was active, Infinite Tsukuyomi was a guaranteed hit.
Even a Limit Douluo would be no exception, because this was impossible to defend against.
However, Xu Tianhao didn't dare to pull in someone too strong, because the moon reading space would not weaken the opponent's strength.
This was also a drawback of the moon reading space; although it could ignore any defensive measures through the Eye of True Sight,
If the person pulled in was too strong, he would be digging his own grave.
However, this space could be controlled according to Xu Tianhao's will, turning into a battlefield that was advantageous to him.
And now, Xu Tianhao had directly replicated the entire scene of the training hall.
In this way, Long Aotian wouldn't perceive any change at all.
In this space, no matter how much time passed, only one second would pass in the outside world.
As for how long the moon reading space could be maintained, it depended on Xu Tianhao's own strength.
The stronger Xu Tianhao's strength, the less spirit power he consumed, and the longer the moon reading space could be maintained.
With Xu Tianhao's current spirit power and mental force, the moon reading space could be maintained for a day!
Even under conditions where combat intensified spirit power consumption, maintaining it for a few hours was easy.
The only advantage was that opponents could not recover within the moon reading space, while Xu Tianhao could.
To break the moon reading space, one either had to completely exhaust Xu Tianhao's spirit power and mental force, or defeat him!
At the same time, within the moon reading space, no external objects could be used; one could only rely on the Spirit Master's own power.
In other words, Long Aotian's Class 7 spiritual protection had no effect whatsoever in the moon reading space!
The moment they entered the moon reading space, Xu Tianhao's figure vanished from before Long Aotian and appeared behind him.
Long Aotian's Mad God Slash struck nothing but air.
This scene made Long Aotian freeze for a moment. From his perspective, he only saw Xu Tianhao's fourth soul ring light up.
Then Xu Tianhao appeared behind him.
"Teleportation?! A mental-attribute soul skill can also use Teleportation?!"
This was Long Aotian's first thought.
Then he realized something was wrong, because the effect of his Class 7 spiritual protection had disappeared.
What kind of heaven-defying soul skill was this?
It directly caused his spirit tool to fail?
Without the Class 7 spiritual protection protecting his sea of consciousness, how could he possibly fight Xu Tianhao!
No wonder Xu Tianhao wouldn't tell them the effect of his Fourth Soul Skill!
It wasn't a case of him and Xiao Hongchen acting tough; it was clearly Xu Tianhao acting tough and playing them!
They had originally thought that with this Class 7 spiritual protection, they wouldn't have to fear Xu Tianhao's spiritual attacks and could let him taste the bitterness of defeat.
Now it seemed they had overthought it.
Without the spiritual protection, Long Aotian was like a little brother in front of Xu Tianhao.
A single Sun Moon Divine Seal could make his sea of consciousness explode instantly, turning him into a drooling idiot!
This thought crossed Long Aotian's mind in an instant, but even so, he did not give up.
As long as it was close combat, at such a short distance, he still had a chance!
His right hand instantly transformed into a dark gold dreadclaw flashing with cold light, and he turned around to strike at Xu Tianhao behind him.
"Dreadclaw Tear!"
With such a full-power burst, this strike was not at all inferior to the Mad God Slash from before!
But when he turned his head, Xu Tianhao was already ten meters away.
In the moon reading space, Xu Tianhao was the ruler.
Although the moon reading space could not weaken an opponent, Xu Tianhao could consume spirit power to achieve instantaneous movement within the space, appearing in any location.
Seeing that Xu Tianhao was already far away from him, Long Aotian's heart went completely cold!
With the distance opened up and without the Class 7 spiritual protection, he was completely unable to block Xu Tianhao's attacks.
But Xu Tianhao was in no hurry to attack, only looking at Long Aotian with a smile: "Aotian, how does my Fourth Soul Skill feel?"
Long Aotian sighed: "As expected of Your Highness. Without the spirit tool protecting my sea of consciousness, I am not your opponent."
Xu Tianhao's smile remained: "This is the effect of my Fourth Soul Skill. Unless one's hard strength is above mine, as long as they enter the moon reading space, I am invincible."
As Xu Tianhao finished speaking, Long Aotian was stunned again: "moon reading space?"
In the next moment, Xiao Hongchen, who had been charging up, disappeared; Xu Tianzhen and the others who were watching also disappeared; even the entire training hall vanished.
Seeing this scene, Long Aotian was dumbfounded.
What kind of soul skill was this?
To actually form a space identical to reality?
No wonder he hadn't noticed anything!
At this moment, even if Long Aotian were an idiot, he would have understood.
His spirit tool hadn't failed; it just had no effect in this special space.
Even without Xu Tianhao's explanation, Long Aotian had roughly guessed the special abilities of this space.
Long Aotian was thoroughly convinced.
With such a heaven-defying soul skill, no one at the same level could beat him.
After all, it was impossible for anyone at the same level to exceed Xu Tianhao's mental force.
And if their mental force couldn't exceed his, a single Sun Moon Divine Seal would settle it.
Long Aotian directly withdrew his Spirit, because there was no longer any point in continuing the fight.
He sighed: "My loss is not undeserved."
Long Aotian couldn't help but ask: "Can you tell me the effect of your Fourth Soul Skill?"
With his close companions, Xu Tianhao naturally had no need to hide anything.
Xu Tianhao smiled: "Within the moon reading space, I am the ruler. Only one's own power can be used in this space."
"And no matter how long we stay inside, only one second passes in the outside world."
"With my current spirit power and mental force, maintaining it for a day is about the limit."
It was a very simple and straightforward explanation. Hearing this, Long Aotian's eyebrows twitched: "As expected, you're a freak."
Xu Tianhao's smile remained: "Now that you know the effect, watch how I give Xiao a surprise later."
As he spoke, the moon reading space slowly faded away.
The scene shifted back to the training hall.
In the eyes of the others, Long Aotian's silver giant axe was about to slice Xu Tianhao's head.
But in the next second, Long Aotian actually withdrew his Spirit and walked to the side with a helpless expression.
Seeing this scene, Xu Tianzhen and the other girls were stunned.
Xiao Hongchen's mouth hung open even wider, looking like he'd been pranked.
Only a few seconds had passed from the beginning until now.
Xiao Hongchen was already surrounded by eighty-eight Class 4 Spirit Cannons, all of their muzzles aimed at Xu Tianhao.
Under such a barrage, it was impossible for a Spirit Ancestor of the same level to block it.
Even a five-ring Spirit King would have no chance against this level of firepower.
Only a six-ring Spirit Emperor might be able to withstand Xiao Hongchen's fire coverage.
But now Long Aotian had just surrendered?
He suspected Long Aotian was intentionally throwing the match.
Your axe was just a hair's breadth away from hitting, and you're telling me you're not fighting anymore?
Despite his thoughts, Xiao Hongchen didn't hesitate; the eighty-eight Spirit cannons were about to fire.
But at that moment, he saw the pitch-black fourth soul ring on Xu Tianhao's body light up again.
Seeing Xu Tianhao's fourth soul ring light up, the corners of Long Aotian's mouth curled up slightly.
One second later, Xiao Hongchen made the exact same move as Long Aotian.
Xiao Hongchen silently withdrew his Spirit, looking at Xu Tianhao as if he were seeing a ghost.
Xiao Hongchen said exasperatedly: "Why were you hiding such a soul skill? Were you just waiting for today?"
Xu Tianhao smiled: "I was just waiting for you guys to provoke me so I could establish some authority and defend my position as captain."
Hearing this, Xiao Hongchen's eyes nearly rolled into the back of his head.
So devious!
Long Aotian stepped forward and gave Xiao Hongchen a punch: "How was it? Satisfied?"
Xiao Hongchen curled his lip: "Tch."
Watching the interaction between the three, Xu Tianzhen and the others were truly confused.
What was going on?
A fixed match?
They hadn't even placed any bets.
They had thought it would be a thrilling battle; they even had their snacks ready, and it ended like this?
