Seeing Shi Quan leave, Zhu Zhuqing immediately turned and chased after him.

"Zhu Zhuqing, what are you doing?" Flender shouted loudly.

"I'm going to see Zhuang Zhou," Zhu Zhuqing's cold voice came.

Upon hearing this, Flender's expression improved a bit.

Oscar, seeing this, also turned and chased in Shi Quan's direction, "Dean, I'm also going to see Zhuang Zhou."

A perfectly good welcoming ceremony ended up like this, which Flender had not anticipated at all.

"Today, we'll stop here. Everyone rest for a day. Classes will resume tomorrow. You're dismissed," Flender waved his hand.

He dismissed the crowd.

If Shi Quan left, the happiest person would naturally be Dai Mubai. As for Tang San, he originally had a good impression of Shi Quan, but after today's events, all of Tang San's previous good feelings for Shi Quan vanished completely.

"I thought you would stay for a while longer..." Zhu Zhuqing caught up to Shi Quan's figure.

"I also didn't expect things to develop like this," Shi Quan waved his hand, putting on a helpless expression. Only he knew that he was intentionally using this opportunity with Master to leave the Academy.

"Zhuang Zhou, what does Zhuqing mean by that?" Oscar quickly followed, having clearly heard what Zhu Zhuqing had just said.

Shi Quan said, "Little Ao, it's just as it sounds. I never intended to continue staying at the Academy. Shrek Academy isn't suitable for me."

Oscar said unwillingly, "Why? Isn't the Academy quite good?"

Shi Quan shook his head slightly and said, "You might think it's good, but I think Shrek Academy is a complete mess. Just Dai Mubai actively stirring up trouble is enough for me to not agree with the Academy's teaching philosophy. So, in the end, it can only be said that Shrek isn't suitable for me."

Upon hearing this, Oscar's mouth opened and closed, then closed and opened again, but he couldn't utter a single word. Moreover, Shi Quan himself said that he had originally planned to leave the Academy.

"It's alright, Little Ao. We haven't known each other long, but we're still brothers. We'll have a chance to meet again in the future, don't worry," Shi Quan patted Oscar's shoulder.

After a simple comfort, Shi Quan didn't even return to his dormitory. Accompanied by the two, he went directly to the Academy gate.

"Zhuqing, if you feel there's no meaning in staying here, remember to come find me. I've already said everything I needed to say last night. Don't worry, I'm here."

"Little Ao, let's go."

Shi Quan waved goodbye to the two.

Goodbye, it will be a different identity next time...

Zhu Zhuqing watched Shi Quan's gradually receding figure, her eyes filled with reluctance, which then turned into determination.

On the other side of the Academy, Flender looked at Shi Quan's departing figure and couldn't help but sigh softly. It wasn't easy for the Academy to get a few Little freaks, but after only a few days, the strongest one left. Flender was somewhat reluctant to let him go.

"Woohoo! Taking off!"

After leaving Shrek Academy, Shi Quan's mouth immediately curved into a brilliant smile.

See you later!

His spirit-materialized figure soared into the sky, rapidly flying towards the distance.

To prevent anyone from following, Shi Quan traveled swiftly, not stopping until late at night. His spirit-materialized figure then landed in a mountain range. After some searching, he found a safe cave, and only then did Shi Quan eagerly begin to assess his gains.

With a thud, the Man Faced Demon Spider's corpse was taken out of the hundred treasure pouch by Shi Quan.

As for its spirit ring, as time passed, it had already dissipated and merged into the Spirit Bone within the Man Faced Demon Spider's corpse.

An external Spirit Bone is a very special Spirit Bone. Under normal circumstances, it is attached to the spirit ring and automatically integrates into the Spirit Master's body upon absorption of the spirit ring; it does not appear within the Spirit Beast's corpse.

If the spirit ring of an external Spirit Bone has not been absorbed, then the external Spirit Bone will appear in the form of a Spirit Bone within the Spirit Beast's body.

This is precisely the current situation.

Summoning the Blue Silver King, after breaking open the Man Faced Demon Spider's corpse, a purplish-bright Spirit Bone appeared in Shi Quan's hand. The Spirit Bone was much larger than Shi Quan, composed of eight thick, long spider legs, connected in the middle to form a single piece. Its surface appeared extremely smooth, emitting a faint sweet fragrance.

This was the smell of poison. If an ordinary person smelled this for too long, they would be poisoned.

"Is this the Eight Spider Lances?" Shi Quan examined the Eight Spider Lances Spirit Bone in his hand, his eyes filled with excitement.

The Eight Spider Lances itself possesses a poison attribute, and it also comes with a swallowing attribute. From the original work, the swallowing attribute of the Eight Spider Lances, combined with the Blue Silver Grass Domain, can form terrifying Swallowing Gold Silk.

This was even without Tang San's Blue Silver Emperor having a swallowing attribute. Shi Quan's Blue Silver King, through Yin and Yang mutual generation, simultaneously possessed both Life and swallowing attributes. If he were to add the swallowing attribute of the Eight Spider Lances, how astonishing would its swallowing ability become once his Blue Silver Domain evolved the ability to produce Swallowing Gold Silk?

Just thinking about it made him excited.

Moreover, as an external Spirit Bone, the Eight Spider Lances has the ability to grow, so there's no need to worry about its low age. The only thing that Shi Quan currently minded was the poison attribute of the Eight Spider Lances.

Although the Eight Spider Lances, as a Spirit Bone, is an independent entity, its inherent poison attribute conflicts with the Life attribute of the Blue Silver Grass. When used independently, they certainly won't affect each other, but if he wanted to combine them with the Blue Silver Domain, Shi Quan worried that the poison attribute would affect their compatibility and prevent him from perfectly unleashing the power of the Blue Silver Domain and the Spirit Bone.

However, thankfully, the reward from the Plunder Treasure Box helped Shi Quan solve this problem.

That's right, it was the Spirit Bone Modifier.

Initially, Shi Quan's idea was to fuse the 100,000 Year Blue Silver Emperor Soul Bone with the Eight Spider Lances external Spirit Bone. In doing so, the swallowing attribute of the Eight Spider Lances combined with the Life attribute of the 100,000 Year Blue Silver Emperor Soul Bone, with these two attributes superimposed, there was a high probability of neutralizing the poison attribute of the Eight Spider Lances. Furthermore, with the enhancement of the 100,000 Year Blue Silver Emperor Soul Bone, the compatibility between the Eight Spider Lances and the Blue Silver Domain would definitely increase significantly.

But in that case, the 100,000 Year Blue Silver Emperor Soul Bone would be somewhat wasted, because even without integrating into the Blue Silver Emperor Soul Bone, the Eight Spider Lances itself would grow with Shi Quan's strength to the level of 100,000 years or even Divine Rank. Ultimately, using a 100,000 Year Spirit Bone to simply improve the compatibility between the Eight Spider Lances and the Blue Silver Domain was overkill.

Later, Shi Quan thought seriously and remembered another reward in the System space: the Bloodline Crystal!

The Bloodline Crystal contained Sacred Dragon Bloodline.

Dragon Clan Bloodline is the superior Bloodline of all Spirit Beasts, and most Spirit Beasts are pursuing the path of transforming into Dragons.

Moreover, according to the original description, the Sacred Dragon is the king of all Dragons, and its Bloodline strength is definitely among the top existences within the Dragon Clan.

If the Eight Spider Lances could absorb the Sacred Dragon Bloodline, then the Eight Spider Lances would definitely undergo a transformation. This transformation wouldn't be one of strength, but rather a transformation of its quality and Origin.

Furthermore, the Sacred Dragon possesses a powerful sacred attribute. This attribute would definitely be able to purify the inherent poison attribute of the Eight Spider Lances, and the sacred attribute also has a very high compatibility with the Life attribute. The combination of the two could give birth to an even more powerful healing attribute.

However, what Shi Quan worried about was that the Sacred Dragon's sacred attribute might be too strong and purify the Eight Spider Lances' swallowing attribute along with the poison.

Both choices had their pros and cons.

Shi Quan didn't dwell on it for now. Instead, he first put the Eight Spider Lances and the Man Faced Demon Spider's corpse into his hundred treasure pouch. He needed to confirm one thing first.

"Extract Dragon Spine."

Under the shimmering golden light, a Dragon Spine, resembling a golden blade, appeared in Shi Quan's hand. The Dragon Spine was over a meter long, enveloped in golden light. Holding it, one felt a sense of peace and harmony mixed with unparalleled dominance.

The Dragon Spine was covered with intricate patterns, like mountains and rivers, or like the sun, moon, and stars. Counting them, this Dragon Spine was actually composed of thirty-six segments.

The average human spine usually has thirty-two to thirty-three segments. This Dragon Spine had three or four more segments than the average person.

Thirty-six...

This number hinted at the Heavenly Stems. After all, he was a Human Emperor, so it was normal for him to be special, Shi Quan thought to himself, but looking at the Dragon Spine in his hand, he felt a sense of familiarity.

One side carved with the sun, moon, and stars, the other side carved with mountains, rivers, and plants.

Shi Quan's mind trembled, and he suddenly remembered something: the Xuanyuan Sword!

This Dragon Spine originated from the Human Emperor Xuanyuan Huangdi, and Xuanyuan Huangdi's primary weapon was the Xuanyuan Sword.

Could it be that some brother Transmigrated to the Fengyun World and was preparing to refine this Dragon Bone into the Xuanyuan Sword?

The System's description of the Dragon Spine was the Dragon Bone from the fan-fiction Fengyun World, so it might really be as Shi Quan thought.

"As expected of a brother from the Transmigration army, he's got some ideas of his own."

Shi Quan secretly gave him a thumbs-up and no longer hesitated. He took off his upper garment, picked up the Dragon Spine in his hand, and slowly pressed it against his back.

Buzz—

A faint hum sounded. Shi Quan felt all the bones in his body tremble. A sharp yet majestic aura drilled into his body from his back, followed by a golden light blooming. The Dragon Spine transformed into countless golden streams of aura, enveloping his entire being.

A warm, comfortable aura permeated the air.

It was clearly a sharp aura, but Shi Quan didn't feel any discomfort; instead, he felt full of comfort.

The golden aura fluctuated within Shi Quan's body. Shi Quan could feel that his Internal Energy was being specially drawn by this golden aura, slowly fluctuating. With each fluctuation, his Internal Energy became purer.

He could feel that his original black and white Internal Energy, under the golden light, became more textured. If his previous Internal Energy was a flowing gas, then his current Internal Energy was more like a winding stream.

Loud cracking sounds of bones reverberated inside the cave, yet Shi Quan still felt no pain.

The warm golden aura began to act on all his Meridians, and the Internal Energy within his body also began to move. The Indestructible Divine Skill and the Muscle and Marrow Cleansing techniques operated simultaneously.

Gradually, the muscles and bones within his body were tinged with a faint golden glow. The powerful force caused Shi Quan's muscles and bones to change every moment.

Gradually, Shi Quan completely immersed himself in this comfortable feeling...
