Chapter 162: Chapter 142: Tier Eight – Space Grasp Skill_2

Translator: 549690339

The environment in the Outer Sea is harsh, and one is caught between two opposing forces. Unless absolutely necessary, who would choose to stay here?

“Who is the madman of the Cluster Stars Sect?”

“Naturally, it’s…”

Satisfied that he had gathered enough information, Xu Mu did not waste any more time and prepared to bid his leave.

However, before leaving, he had one more task to accomplish.

He invoked a flight skill and slowly flew towards the enormous spinal bone above his head, reaching it in no time.

Gazing at the whale-beast’s spine that emitted a faint white glow, resembling a colossal dragon, Xu Mu was once again awestruck by the pure enormity of the land-cracking whale.

“If it were alive, a slight movement could probably trigger a tsunami! It truly deserves to be the strongest creature in the ocean!”

As he muttered this, he released his Divine Intent, letting it permeate into the spinal bone to thoroughly investigate. As expected, he sensed an energetic lifeforce within it.

Just as Xu Mu intended to probe deeper, a dense array of runes appeared, blocking his Divine Intent.

Xu Mu tried several methods, but none could pierce through. Hence, extracting the essence from within became mere idle talk.

It likely was due to the existence of this formation that the space hadn’t collapsed, and why the Iron Corpse Gang hadn’t taken the essence first.

Even though he had no option, and the Iron Corpse Gang had none either, Lu Jingkong, as a Nascent Soul expert, would surely have a way.

After all, it was she who confessed to having extracted it before.

“I wonder if the senior can disclose the method of extraction?”

Xu Mu asked in his mind.

He expected Lu Jingkong to give him a hard time, but to his surprise, she openly revealed it to him, even explaining the subtle details.

Once Xu Mu fully comprehended it and opened his system panel to check, he found a new skill listed.

[Tier-Eight Space Grasp Skill Initiated; 243/1.28W]!

“This is the first time I’ve encountered a tier-eight skill, but —”

He was no fool to believe the other party would be so kind-hearted.

However, the blood essence of the Land-Cracking Whale was too tempting to abandon.

Xu Mu hesitated for a moment before starting to learn the Space Grasp Skill, hoping to uncover its mysteries.

The process of upgrading one’s capacity in the Space Grasp Skill didn’t consume energy, just requiring some effort for receiving and retaining the memory.

It took Xu Mu several days to attain proficiency in the skill.

As the skill’s realm elevated, the many mysteries of the Space Grasp skill began to manifest.

A slight smile played on Xu Mu’s lips. He finally understood why Lu Jingkong was so generous.

Space Grasp Skill was actually a combat skill by which one could conjure invisible giant hands outside the body for offence and defence. Its power was immense and it could catch opponents off-guard.
