After trying Mental Shock and Mental Hallucinations, Yu Xiaogang tried a third application.
This was also Yu Xiaogang's initial method of use.
Influencing emotions through Mental Energy to create different effects on opponents during battle.
The most typical example was during the fight with Tai Tan, where he used Mental Energy to disrupt the opponent's emotions and instill fear, achieving the effect of breaking the opponent's psychological state.
In Yu Xiaogang's view, this technique also had great developmental value.
The more evenly matched the opponent, the greater the effect of this Move.
Aside from that, using this Move to bully weaker opponents was also very effective.
With a few Moves, the opponent's psyche could be completely shattered, leaving a permanent psychological shadow.
To be honest, Yu Xiaogang felt that the legendary Clear Sky Douluo Tang Chen followed this same path.
Any opponent defeated by him would look as if their courage had been completely broken.
If he could master this kind of power, in the future, many people's faces would change color just by hearing his name.
After finishing his attempts at influencing emotions through Mental Energy, Yu Xiaogang used the final Move.
Yu Xiaogang's First Soul Ring lit up, and a body identical in size to his own, composed entirely of Soul Power, slowly took shape.
Once the body's structure was complete, Yu Xiaogang raised his hand and injected Mental Energy into it.
In the next second, the Soul Power body opened its eyes, revealing a gaze identical to Yu Xiaogang's within those Soul Power eyes.
"Xiaogang, this is..."
Lin Lang stared wide-eyed at the Soul Power body.
"It's exactly what you're thinking."
The Soul Power body spoke, producing the same voice as Yu Xiaogang.
"My First Spirit Skill itself is very versatile; it can construct and control my various Spirit Abilities and Spirit Ability creations."
"This Spirit Power Clone is a Move I envisioned long ago, but back then, I had to expend effort to control the Spirit Power Clone myself."
"Instead of doing that, it was more practical to condense a sword."
While speaking, Yu Xiaogang stepped forward and inspected the state of the Spirit Power Clone.
"But as my Mental Energy improved, I found that using this Move now, I can completely separate a portion of my Mental Energy to have that Mental Energy control the Clone."
"The Mental Energy acts entirely according to my will, and I can communicate with the Clone at any time to obtain information gathered on its end."
"So overall, this Move is currently my most practical technique."
In Yu Xiaogang's view, this Spirit Power Clone Move was truly very practical.
For instance, when encountering danger, he could send such a Clone to scout the path.
If besieged, summoning a Clone could temporarily help him hold off enemies.
"It is indeed practical."
Lin Lang remarked with heartfelt admiration; only a fellow Spirit Master could understand the utility of such a thing.
Like during Soul Hunting, using this to scout meant no longer having to worry about casualties.
"Hehe, it's more than just that."
Hearing this, Yu Xiaogang smiled proudly again. On the other side, the Clone received a command and raised a finger. At the tip of the finger, a Light Ball condensed and formed, followed by a shockwave of Light Attribute being released toward an empty space ahead.
"This... this thing can even release Spirit Abilities?"
Lin Lang swallowed hard.
Just assisting in combat was already Heaven-Defying enough; now it could even release Spirit Abilities?
How are you going to let anyone else survive?
"Actually, releasing Spirit Abilities isn't an original capability of my First Spirit Skill."
"This Clone is composed entirely of Soul Power. In fact, the reason the Clone has this appearance is simply because I want it to appear this way."
"If I wanted to, the Clone could be condensed in the form of a bird, a cat, a dog, or even a Dragon without any problem."
"That being the case, why couldn't I further improve the Clone?"
As Yu Xiaogang spoke, a simply constructed spirit tool appeared in his hand.
"Just like this spirit tool, it is actually composed of my Soul Power."
"Since my Clone is also composed of Soul Power, then inside the Clone's body, there's absolutely no need for me to mold it according to a human body."
"I directly mold a bunch of basic Spirit Ability structures inside the Clone's body and connect them to each other."
"A Clone formed this way looks like a simple Clone, but in reality, it is equivalent to a weapon formed by the composite of multiple spirit tools."
"With these spirit tool structures, my Clone can also release Spirit Abilities."
"It's just that right now, I only have some simple Spirit Ability structures in hand. I'm still not quite clear on what the structures of those truly Heaven-Defying Spirit Abilities are."
Yu Xiaogang said with a look of regret.
Truly Heaven-Defying Spirit Abilities, like the ones he possessed, were each very powerful, but he had no idea what their specific structures were.
Currently, he had only dismantled some Ten-year Spirit Bones and a small number of Hundred Year Soul Bones, in addition to the Spirit Ability Structure Manual he obtained from Flender.
To piece together these simple Spirit Ability structures into rational and powerful Spirit Abilities, he still needed to conduct in-depth research on this path.
But even so, the current Spirit Power Clone was already impressive enough.
The Clone he created through Spirit Abilities could not only help him fight but could also form different structures within its body according to different situations, composing different Clone Spirit Abilities.
"It can actually be like this?"
Lin Lang hadn't expected that the structures Yu Xiaogang summarized from dismantling Spirit Bones could be used as combat power in his hands in this way, besides being used to manufacture spirit tools.
"Xiaogang, could it be that your original purpose for studying Spirit Bones was for this?"
Lin Lang looked at Yu Xiaogang's Spirit Power Clone, as if suddenly realizing something.
"In a way, yes. When I saw that my First Spirit Skill had such strong plasticity, I came up with a hypothesis."
Yu Xiaogang rolled up his sleeves, revealing his arm.
"Since I can use Soul Power to construct a Clone, then if I have this Clone simulate a human body, would it be possible to place a Spirit Bone into the appropriate position in the Clone and have the Clone activate the Spirit Bone's Soul Bone Skill?"
"The result was even more of a pleasant surprise than I expected."
"There are actually so many structures inside a Spirit Bone that affect the Soul Bone Skill, and these structures can actually be dismantled individually and combined with other structures."
"So, back to my initial goal."
"Using a Clone to simulate a human body and installing a Spirit Bone to activate a Soul Bone Skill?"
"With these structures, the interior of my Clone can be entirely made of such structures. Through these structures, my Spirit Power Clone is a mobile arsenal!"
Yu Xiaogang clenched his fist, his eyes full of high expectations for the Clone.
"In the future, once I've accumulated enough structures, I can even use the Clone during battle to manufacture the teammates I need on the spot."
"If I lack defense, I'll create a Spirit Power Clone with a set of defensive Spirit Abilities."
"If I lack healing, I'll create a Clone with a set of healing Spirit Abilities."
"If combat power is insufficient, then I'll create a Clone with a set of support Spirit Abilities."
"As long as my accumulation is sufficient, I will be omnipotent. At that time, in the entire Douluo Continent, who else will be my match?!"
