Dugu Bo stood quietly by, with a puzzled look on his face, but he did not say anything to interrupt.
He believed in Lin Xiao's judgment.
I don't know how much time passed, maybe an hour, maybe longer.
"Crack!"
A crisp cracking sound different from the previous one was heard.
The Dragon Soul Overlord Spear in Lin Xiao's hand suddenly sank down!
"It's working!"
Lin Xiao's eyes flashed with surprise. He could feel that the tip of the gun had touched an area that was completely different from the solid ice!
He quickly pulled out the Dragon Soul Overlord Spear and leaned over to look.
At the bottom of the deep pit, a faint blue light was seeping out, emitting fascinating energy fluctuations.
In the dim blue light, one can vaguely see pieces of crystal clear, ice-blue crystals that look like beautiful jade, lying there quietly.
"This is... Ten Thousand Years of Cold Marrow!"
Lin Xiao's heart was pounding and his face showed an expression of incredible ecstasy.
Dugu Bo looked at the dark blue crystals, his face filled with confusion. He finally couldn't help but ask, "Ten Thousand Years of Cold Marrow? What is this?"
"This ten thousand year old cold marrow is a rare treasure in the world!"
"If a soul beast can absorb this cold marrow, it will be able to increase its own cultivation very quickly."
Dugu Bo curled his lips, seeming a little disapproving.
"What kind of treasure is this? There are many things that can help soul beasts improve their cultivation."
"Even if soul beasts just devour each other, it can have a similar effect."
Lin Xiao shook his head with a mysterious smile on his face.
"Senior, you are wrong. If this ten thousand year old cold marrow is only a small amount, it is indeed not too shocking."
"But its true magic lies in the fact that soul beasts absorb it to improve their cultivation, not only without any side effects, but also... this improvement is unlimited!"
"Unlimited?" Dugu Bo raised his eyebrows, obviously interested.
Lin Xiao continued, "Legend has it that there was once an ordinary soul beast with mediocre talent that relied on swallowing this ten thousand year old cold marrow for a long time."
"In the end... he forcibly raised his cultivation to the level of a million years!"
"What?! A million-year-old soul beast?!"
This time, Dugu Bo was really shocked and his voice became much louder.
His emerald green eyes widened as he stared at the dark blue crystals at the bottom of the pit, as if he wanted to see through them.
You must know that no matter how extraordinary the natural treasures are, their effects cannot last forever.
Just like the whale glue Lin Xiao had given him, the effect was incredible when he took it for the first time.
But after taking it for the second time, the effect was reduced by more than half.
By the third time, I could hardly feel any effect.
Even for the miraculous items such as immortal herbs that defy the will of heaven and earth, a soul master can only consume one plant of the same type in his lifetime.
Taking more than that is not only unhelpful, but may even be harmful.
There are precious medicines on the Douluo Continent that can improve cultivation, but most of them have significant hidden dangers.
If you rely on external forces to improve for a long time, it will easily lead to the instability of soul power and damage the foundation.
In serious cases, it may even cut off one's future path of cultivation.
And at this moment, Lin Xiao actually said that this ten thousand year old cold marrow can allow soul beasts to improve infinitely without any side effects!
What an incredible effect!
What's more, it's a million-year-old soul beast!
That is a god-level existence that only exists in ancient legends, and its strength is enough to destroy the world!
For a moment, Dugu Bo's gaze towards those dark blue crystals also became extremely hot.
Although Lin Xiao said that this thing is only effective against soul beasts, he, Yang Wudi and Ye Renxin often study pharmacology together.
With the abilities of the three of them, it would be a piece of cake to transform the medicinal properties of this ten thousand year old cold marrow and refine it into pills or potions suitable for soul masters to absorb!
If it's really as Lin Xiao said, and considering the huge reserves here...
Dugu Bo could hardly imagine that by then, it would not be difficult for their Dragon Soul Sect to add a dozen more Titled Douluo!
Thinking of this, Dugu Bo could no longer suppress his inner excitement.
He quickly called out, "Good boy! What are you waiting for? Let's get started and collect all these treasures!"
So, there was a top Titled Douluo on the continent and a leader of the Dragon Soul Sect who stirred up the world.
At this moment, they were like two hardworking miners who had discovered a huge treasure, working busily in the depths of this small ice cave.
Lin Xiao held the Dragon Soul Overlord Spear, responsible for prying and digging out pieces of ten-thousand-year-old cold marrow from the ice.
Dugu Bo stood aside, carefully putting these crystals emitting pure energy into his own space soul guide one by one.
The two of them cooperated well and were extremely efficient.
The cold air filled the ice cave, and the faint blue light illuminated the excited faces of the two people.
As time passed, they unearthed more and more ancient cold marrow.
The several large-capacity space soul guides brought by Dugu Bo were gradually becoming full.
At this moment, Dugu Bo, who had been paying attention to the surrounding situation, suddenly changed his expression.
The excitement and greed on his face faded away in an instant, replaced by an indescribable horror.
His body trembled slightly, and he looked at Lin Xiao, who was still working hard, with some trepidation, and his throat felt a little dry.
"Little...little monster!"
"You... the one you just mentioned... the soul beast that relied on the ten thousand year cold marrow to cultivate to a million years..."
"It... when did it happen? Does it still exist?"
Lin Xiao was struggling to pry off a large piece of cold marrow and answered casually:
"Of course it's still there! I don't know exactly how long it's been alive, but it must be living happily in some corner of the continent right now."
"Why are you asking this all of a sudden?"
As he spoke, Lin Xiao threw the piece of cold marrow to Dugu Bo, then raised his head and noticed the extremely horrified expression on Dugu Bo's face and his trembling lips.
Dugu Bo's eyes were filled with fear. He stretched out a trembling finger and pointed further down the deep pit they had dug.
"Down...down...about two hundred meters deep..."
"There is... there is... an Ice Silkworm Soul Beast with an aura... that is extremely terrifying!"
"It...it seems to be sleeping!"
"Little monster! Stop...stop digging! Let's get away before it notices us!"
"The aura of that ice silkworm... is too... too shocking! We really can't deal with it!"
Dugu Bo's voice trembled with fear, and he was even ready to pull Lin Xiao away at any time.
However, when Lin Xiao heard Dugu Bo's words, the expression on his face was completely opposite to his.
Not only was there no fear at all, but there was an irrepressible ecstasy!
His eyes lit up instantly, as if he had seen a treasure more precious than the Ten Thousand Year Cold Marrow!
"No! Senior Dugu! Let's attack with all our strength immediately!"
"Catch this ice silkworm! We can't let it escape!"
