Chapter 259: The Evolved Skull
"This familiar aura... could it be the Vast Sea Cosmic Shroud?!"
As Qin Mu mobilized his Spiritual Power, a familiar sensation spread through his mind.
Reacting to this, Qin Mu immediately searched for the location of the Vast Sea Cosmic Shroud within his mind.
Before long, Qin Mu discovered the Vast Sea Cosmic Shroud.
However, the current Vast Sea Cosmic Shroud no longer looked like it once did.
Instead, it had transformed into a gemstone-like crystalline object embedded in the center of the forehead of Qin Mu's Mind Condensing Wisdom Skull.
Currently, Qin Mu had collected all six main Soul Bones.
But aside from the Titan Giant Ape Left Palm Bone, which was an External Soul Bone, his head soul bone had the lowest age.
Failing to obtain a hundred-thousand-year head soul bone was Qin Mu's only regret.
As one of the six main Soul Bones, the head soul bone's importance could be considered number one.
But given the circumstances at the time, Qin Mu had no other choice.
But now, it seemed the Mind Condensing Wisdom Skull had fused with the Vast Sea Cosmic Shroud.
This was also the reason why Qin Mu had broken through to Rank 98 and his Spiritual Power had increased two to three times over.
Feeling his own majestic Spiritual Power, a sudden idea struck Qin Mu.
Since the Mind Condensing Wisdom Skull had fused with the Vast Sea Cosmic Shroud, would the Spirit Abilities of the Mind Condensing Wisdom Skull also be upgraded?
Without hesitation, Qin Mu immediately began to test the Spirit Abilities of his head soul bone.
Soul Power was gradually injected into the Mind Condensing Wisdom Skull, emitting a faint glow.
A purple light rapidly expanded with Qin Mu as the center, growing a hundredfold in an instant, enveloping everything within a hundred-meter radius.
Sensing this abnormal change, Ling Yuan and Gui Mei re-entered Qin Mu's room almost instantaneously.
After seeing that Qin Mu was safe and sound, the two of them shifted their gaze to this barrier.
"Little Qin Mu, what is this thing you've made now?"
Looking at the barrier before her, Ling Yuan was surprised to find that her perception was actually confined within this barrier and could not penetrate it at all.
Before Ling Yuan could react, the barrier began to change again.
It shrank rapidly at a speed visible to the naked eye.
In the blink of an eye, the barrier only enveloped Qin Mu himself.
But at this moment, Ling Yuan and Gui Mei suddenly lost track of Qin Mu's position.
They lost him in the truest sense of the word.
It was as if the person named Qin Mu did not exist at all.
Naturally, Qin Mu's aura could not be detected either.
"Sister Ling Yuan, why don't you try attacking me?"
Though Qin Mu could not be seen, his voice rang out in front of Ling Yuan.
Upon hearing this, Ling Yuan did not hesitate in the slightest.
She immediately manifested a flaming spear in her hand and thrust it toward the place where Qin Mu's voice had come from.
To Ling Yuan's astonishment, her spear was actually blocked outside the barrier.
It was like stabbing a spear into cotton.
"This barrier is actually this powerful?"
Even though Ling Yuan had thrust the spear casually, its attack power was enough to make a Titled Douluo scramble.
Yet such power was easily neutralized by the barrier.
The flaming spear in her hand vanished, and Qin Mu's figure reappeared in the room.
"This barrier of yours is so bizarre! I'm afraid I'd have to strike with all my strength just to have a chance at breaking it!"
Hearing Ling Yuan's words, Qin Mu smiled and shook his head.
"Even if you go all out, you might not necessarily be able to break it."
"It's not that I'm conceited, but rather that the strength of this barrier is tied to my Spiritual Power."
"With my current Spiritual Power, I'm afraid it would be hard to find a match in the entire continent."
"Even the High Priest would likely find it difficult to break this barrier."
As Qin Mu finished speaking, both Ling Yuan and Gui Mei revealed shocked expressions.
Who was the High Priest of Spirit Hall? A Rank 99 super Douluo!
If it was truly as Qin Mu said...
If even such a powerhouse had trouble breaking this layer of barrier,
Wouldn't that mean that in the current continent, Qin Mu was already invincible under heaven?
Looking at Qin Mu, Gui Mei's thoughts were more complex than Ling Yuan's, and he couldn't help but speak up.
"Just now, with the strength of the two of us, we couldn't detect your existence within the barrier."
"If the consumption of this barrier isn't too high, is it possible for all of us to hide within your barrier?"
"When the time comes to find the Clear Sky Sect's location, we can launch a surprise attack on them!"
"That way, we could probably wipe out the entire Clear Sky Sect in one go!"
Qin Mu nodded in full agreement with Gui Mei's idea.
"Of course, but the premise is that the consumption of this barrier is truly that low."
Qin Mu gave a bitter smile and continued.
"Since the consumption of this barrier is primarily based on my Spiritual Power, the demand for Spiritual Power is naturally very high."
"If it were a small strike team of a few people, I might be able to hide your auras."
"But if I were to hide everyone involved in this operation, the consumption of my Spiritual Power would be astronomical."
"At least with my current strength, I'm afraid I can't move with so many people together."
Hearing Qin Mu's words, a slight look of regret appeared on Gui Mei's face.
After all, what he excelled at was things like sneak attacks.
Such a skill was practically a divine technique for him.
"There is another Soul skills, but because using it would be too terrifying, I won't demonstrate it."
"It's getting late. You two should head back first and prepare for tomorrow's operation!"
Hearing this, the two of them acknowledged him and returned to their own rooms.
Qin Mu sat by his bed once more and took out the haotian token again.
The things that surprised him weren't just the evolution of his head soul bone.
More importantly, through the probe of his divine sense just now, Qin Mu had made a startling discovery.
When his divine sense was injected into the haotian token, the current location of the Clear Sky Sect appeared clearly in Qin Mu's mind.
The location was so clear that Qin Mu could even mark it on a map.
"Clear Sky Sect..."
"Just you wait, it's time for us to settle our scores properly!"
...
Spirit Hall.
After Yue Guan escorted Qian Renxue to Spirit Hall and brought her to the Enshrinement Hall, he left once more to look for Qin Mu.
Qian Renxue looked at the angel god statue in the Enshrinement Hall, her expression somewhat cold.
Then, as if thinking of something, she walked toward a certain corner of Spirit Hall.
Before long, Qian Renxue arrived at a remote room within Spirit Hall.
This room wasn't small in scale, but because it was too secluded, very few people ever came here.
With a hint of mockery on her face, Qian Renxue pushed open the door.
"Isn't this our Spirit Hall's Her Majesty the Pope? Why are you staying in a place like this?"
"Oh, I accidentally forgot, you are no longer the Pope!"
"How does it feel to have the position of Pope snatched away?"
