"Let's give it a try," Tang San said as he swiftly reached out to grab Xiao Wu's right hand. His speed was so fast that even a Soul Emperor would have difficulty following it.
Surprisingly, Xiao Wu's right arm instinctively moved outward by about twenty degrees, just enough to avoid Tang San's grasp.
"Huh?" Tang San noticed the astonishment in Xiao Wu's eyes, indicating she hadn't consciously reacted.
He attempted to grab her wrist again and observed that her arm seemed to have a mind of its own, instinctively dodging his grip.
"It seems your sixth soul ring's enhancement of your nervous system has combined with your second soul ring's ability, enabling your body to instinctively avoid attacks," Tang San remarked after his third attempt, withdrawing his hand. "If you can master this, you might be able to develop an incredibly powerful martial art—"
"Ultra Instinct!"
Tang San had watched "Dragon Ball" in his previous life, where Ultra Instinct was a divine technique mastered by the protagonist Goku after achieving Super Saiyan Blue.
Many casual fans believed that only the power level of Super Saiyan Blue could access Ultra Instinct. However, the principle of this technique was quite simple: relying on the body's reflexes to move independently of the brain, thereby maximizing speed and reaction time.
In essence, the body doesn't need the brain to process information; it can autonomously detect danger, dodge attacks, and counterattack simultaneously.
Thus, this technique doesn't require universe-destroying power levels. With extraordinary reflexes and muscle memory, one could meet the criteria and reach the threshold of Ultra Instinct.
The goal is to maximize one's innate potential!
As for the white-haired transformation seen in the manga, that was likely unique to Saiyans. Others mastering Ultra Instinct wouldn't exhibit such dramatic and flashy transformations.
Truly powerful skills often have low entry barriers, with simple principles, but achieving the desired effects requires extensive practice and a bit of innate talent and inspiration.
Whether Xiao Wu could master Ultra Instinct in the future...
Tang San believed it was possible, considering the soul ring's enhancement of her martial spirit and physical body, which had vastly improved her nervous system.
At the very least, in terms of reflexes, Xiao Wu had already surpassed him.
"Is it really that powerful?" Xiao Wu hadn't anticipated that her sixth soul ring's first skill would provide her with the foundation to reach such heights in martial arts. "If I master Ultra Instinct, could I face off against Super Douluos above level ninety-five as a Soul Emperor?"
"Face off?" Tang San chuckled dismissively, then elaborated, "Currently, soul masters don't fully utilize their soul power, even with soul skills. If you master Ultra Instinct, conservatively, you could crush hundred-level powerhouses with just the soul power of a ten-level Soul Master."
"Wow!" Xiao Wu gasped, then burst into laughter, imagining herself mastering Ultra Instinct, punching Di Tian, kicking the Silver Dragon, and making the entire Star Dou Forest bow at her feet.
"Don't get too excited. This is just a concept. I don't even know how to practice it myself," Tang San interrupted Xiao Wu's daydream, bringing her back to reality. "Even if we discover a way to practice it, you'd likely need to reach the Titled Douluo level to master it."
"I'm a genius, just watch me master Ultra Instinct," Xiao Wu said confidently. Then she continued talking about her second soul skill from her hundred-thousand-year soul ring. "My second soul skill is Spatial Awareness. The Sky Spirit/lingkong Rabbit also enhanced my spatial abilities. To awaken a spatial domain when I become a Soul Saint, I condensed this soul skill into a perception type. It allows me to sense everything within a radius of dozens of miles, including the flow of energy in the heavens and earth."
"This is a reconnaissance skill that can radiate in a straight line, with a range of about a hundred kilometers."
"As an agility-type soul master, I need scouting abilities. This skill complements my existing abilities, making me a versatile agility-type soul master capable of interference, assassination, and reconnaissance."
Tang San considered this and realized that combining Spatial Awareness with Neural Network could significantly enhance Xiao Wu's reflexes.
"Your plan is excellent," Tang San remarked. "The Spatial Awareness skill, which utilizes your nervous system, won't overlap with or conflict with your previous soul skills, allowing you to continue cultivating your fusion rings."
Putting aside thoughts of Ultra Instinct for the moment, Tang San objectively evaluated Xiao Wu's two sixth soul skills. However—
"For your seventh soul ring, you can only choose Soft Boned Rabbit, which will also be a hundred-thousand-year level. Besides your martial soul avatar, you can opt for a skill related to spatial abilities to align with the spatial domain you aim to awaken as a Soul Saint."
"What spatial skills does the Soft Boned Rabbit have? I'm not familiar with them, as there are no records in the Spirit Hall's archives. Can you tell me more?" Tang San asked.
"The Soft Boned Rabbit has spatial abilities like teleportation and Invincible Golden Body," Xiao Wu replied.
"Golden body skills use spatial power?" Huo Wu was surprised.
"Of course," Xiao Wu rolled her eyes. "Mental skills often convert soul power into spatial power, forming a thin membrane that isolates external threats, achieving invincibility. It's not the same as Tang San's body tempering through Ice and Fire Alchemy."
Pausing, Xiao Wu continued, "Besides these abilities, the Soft Boned Rabbit can create a small space. When my mother was alive, she could open a one-cubic-meter space to store items. After she died, the space couldn't be accessed."
"Couldn't be accessed?" Tang San caught the key point.
"Yes, even though my mother died, the space she created still exists," Xiao Wu confirmed. "My mother once said that although the Soft Boned Rabbit is weak, it has the advantage of creating spaces that persist."
"Throughout history, each Soft Boned Rabbit reaching a hundred-thousand-year level created a space. When they were alive, the space was independent and controlled by the rabbit. After they died, these spaces merged and absorbed high-quality spatial fragments, growing larger. My mother even speculated that one day, these spaces might form a semi-plane attached to Douluo Continent."
"Unfortunately, before I transformed, I was too playful to create such a space. After becoming human, I thought it was just a convenient 'storage soul tool.' Besides, a living Soft Boned Rabbit can't access items in spaces created by deceased ones, so I didn't find it that important."
A hundred-thousand-year Soft Boned Rabbit could create an independent space. After the rabbit's death, these spaces merged, absorbing high-quality spatial fragments to grow.
This space, attached to the Douluo Star, could potentially strengthen the entire world as it expanded.
"We must obtain this ability!"
