Chapter 157: Chapter 157: Kamui, Space Compression, and Intangibility
Upon witnessing the astonishing defensive power of Susanoo, Da Ming's expression grew serious. The fact that it could withstand the attacks of Er Ming, a power-type hundred-thousand-year-old soul beast, showed that Su Ming's eyes were indeed extraordinary.
After some thought, Da Ming said to Su Ming, "Su Ming, your Eternal Mangekyou ability is really impressive. Now, I believe that if your eyes truly evolve into the Rinnegan, it might really be possible to revive Xiao Wu's mother!"
Da Ming hadn't wanted to believe it, but after seeing the incredible defense of Susanoo, which even Er Ming's immense strength couldn't break, he had no choice but to acknowledge it. However, even with such powerful defense, there had to be weaknesses, though it wasn't his place to inquire about them. Nevertheless, the more Da Ming looked at Su Ming, the more satisfied he felt. Trusting Xiao Wu to him seemed appropriate.
Xiao Wu, curious, asked from the side, "Brother, is this the full extent of your eye abilities?"
Su Ming had already displayed quite a bit, but Xiao Wu hadn't yet seen the ability Su Ming had mentioned in his diary, which was certainly not just Susanoo.
Su Ming nodded and said, "Almost. There's just one more half of the ability left."
Xiao Wu was confused. "What do you mean by half?"
Su Ming explained, "I call it 'half' because I already demonstrated part of it earlier. It's the Kamui, the spatial ability."
"Kamui isn't just useful for attacking. Its greatest strength lies in self-preservation. When used for attack, like shortening distances, it consumes less of my mental energy. But if I…"
At this point, Su Ming shifted his gaze and used Kamui on a nearby tree.
Boom!
The tree trunk was compressed by space and shattered instantly!
The three were shocked by Su Ming's display. Kamui could be used in such a way?
"As you can see, Kamui can also compress space, making it a formidable attack. However, if I were to use it against Er Ming, with his physique, he could escape before the compression was complete—unless I poured in a massive amount of mental energy, which would be unnecessary."
Xiao Wu nodded seriously, realizing that Su Ming's abilities were truly powerful and versatile, seemingly even more practical than Susanoo.
"Alright, enough said. Now, let me show you the main application of Kamui!" Su Ming said, preparing to demonstrate the final use of the technique.
He then turned to Xiao Wu, "Xiao Wu, since you're smaller, the effect will be more noticeable. Try attacking me!"
Though hesitant, Xiao Wu eventually nodded. If Su Ming said so, he must have a reason. Plus, it had been a long time since she'd fought with him. Every time before, she had always lost, hoping to one day win, though that chance seemed to be slipping away.
In an instant, Xiao Wu teleported from Da Ming's head to Su Ming's front, raising her right leg to kick his right arm.
"Kamui… Intangibility!"
Before their eyes, something unbelievable happened—Xiao Wu's right leg passed straight through Su Ming's arm and even his entire upper body! Then, with a faint smile, Su Ming vanished completely into the Kamui dimension.
Xiao Wu, startled, shouted, "Brother! Where did you go?"
Suddenly, Su Ming reappeared behind Xiao Wu, lightly tapping her on the shoulder.
Xiao Wu jumped in surprise, marveling at how incredible Su Ming's abilities were!
Excited, she grabbed Su Ming's hand and exclaimed, "Brother, is this Kamui's self-preservation ability? This is amazing! With this, you won't need Susanoo in battle anymore. No one can harm you!"
Su Ming smiled and nodded in agreement. Xiao Wu was right—Kamui's intangibility gave him an enormous defensive advantage without relying on Susanoo.
For now, Susanoo's main use was for equipping his Wooden Dragon. As Su Ming's strength grew, he could progressively outfit his Wooden Giant and eventually his Wooden Buddha with Susanoo armor. The prospect of a fully armored Buddha was something even Su Ming couldn't fully imagine.
Da Ming, now fully convinced of Su Ming's power, said earnestly, "Su Ming, I can no longer find any flaws in you. From now on, I trust you with Xiao Wu."
Da Ming knew that Su Ming had gone to great lengths to show them his abilities because of his feelings for Xiao Wu. His trust in them was driven by his affection for her.
Impressed by Su Ming's sincerity and strength, Da Ming had no choice but to entrust Xiao Wu to him, hoping Su Ming would treat her well.
Hearing Da Ming's words, Xiao Wu blushed and smiled, feeling happy for Su Ming. Da Ming and Er Ming had never trusted humans before—Su Ming was the first.
Now that Su Ming had earned their approval, Xiao Wu no longer felt conflicted. After all, both sides were the people she cared about the most.
Su Ming, seeing that both Da Ming and Er Ming had accepted him, breathed a sigh of relief. He had successfully gained the approval of Xiao Wu's "brothers-in-law" after all his efforts to demonstrate his power.
He casually asked Xiao Wu, "Xiao Wu, you mentioned earlier that you wanted to change your fifth soul skill. Do you have any ideas?"
After a moment of silence, Xiao Wu thought about Su Ming's spatial abilities and replied, "Brother, I've made up my mind. I want my fifth soul skill to be related to space. My third soul skill, Teleportation, is a spatial skill, but it's mainly for escaping or assisting in attacks."
"This time, I want a spatial skill that can be used for long-range attacks, like your Kamui. It's so powerful and cool!"
Su Ming immediately agreed, "That's a great idea! Spatial soul skills are incredibly rare among soul masters. If you can create one with your innate ability to condense your own soul rings, it would be perfect!"
The exact nature of Xiao Wu's fifth soul skill would depend on her luck, as it was an unconventional path, but Su Ming wasn't worried. Spatial soul skills were inherently powerful, and with Xiao Wu likely to condense a soul ring of at least 50,000 years, it couldn't be anything less than extraordinary.
Da Ming and Er Ming listened as Xiao Wu recounted her six years with Su Ming, further deepening their understanding and trust in him.
