Chapter 63: Koi Bibi Dong, Dropping the External Soul Bone, Eight Spider Lances
Star Dou Great Forest.
The figures of Qian Xunji, Yun Yuan, and Bibi Dong appeared here. As for why they weren't obtaining Soul Rings in the Sunset Forest...
The reason was simple; it was mainly because Yun Yuan's third ring required hunting a ten-thousand-year Soul Beast. Compared to the Star Dou Great Forest, the number of ten-thousand-year Soul Beasts in the Sunset Forest was significantly lower, offering Yun Yuan far fewer choices.
"Dong'er, Teacher will help you obtain your Soul Ring first. Most of the Soul Beasts for the Soul Ring you need live in the outer regions."
"Furthermore, after you obtain your Soul Ring, your strength will increase significantly. It will be much safer when we enter the inner regions later."
As soon as they entered the Star Dou Great Forest, Qian Xunji told Bibi Dong about his plan.
Hearing this, Bibi Dong nodded, and then suddenly thought of something.
"Teacher, don't forget, the Soul Beast I want to hunt this time must be over a thousand years old."
"Haha, Teacher naturally won't forget. Dong'er, you can have a thousand-year second ring just like Xiao Yuan."
Before entering the Star Dou Great Forest, Qian Xunji had already checked Bibi Dong's physical condition and determined the limit of the Soul Ring age she could absorb.
Through the effects of the whale glue and the immortal-grade pills, Bibi Dong's physical fitness was enough to rival an ordinary Soul Elder. Obtaining a thousand-year Soul Ring was naturally not a problem.
Immediately afterward, the three began searching for a Soul Beast suitable for Bibi Dong in the Star Dou Great Forest.
This search lasted a whole day before they finally found a suitable poison-attribute spider Soul Beast: a Man Faced Demon Spider.
"Dong'er, this Man Faced Demon Spider is quite good. Its age is close to two thousand years, right at the limit of what you can absorb."
Looking at the ugly, disgusting Man Faced Demon Spider not far away, a glint appeared in Qian Xunji's eyes.
This was simply too perfect for Bibi Dong—a poison-attribute, top-tier spider Soul Beast, with an age right on the threshold of two thousand years.
The Soul Ring age Bibi Dong could absorb was roughly around two thousand years, and this Man Faced Demon Spider was over nineteen hundred years old, definitely not exceeding two thousand.
Looking at this Man Faced Demon Spider, Yun Yuan's thoughts couldn't help but drift. His Senior Sister's Martial Soul was a spider and she was hunting a Man Faced Spider; decades later, Tang San's Martial Soul would be Blue Silver Grass, and he would also hunt a Man Faced Demon Spider.
Gangzi, you really led people astray. What kind of nonsense did you teach Tang San? If I didn't know better, I'd think you were an undercover agent planted by Spirit Hall by Tang San's side.
Pulling back his thoughts, Yun Yuan focused on reality, only to see that Qian Xunji beside him had already vanished from the spot.
In the blink of an eye, that two-thousand-year Man Faced Demon Spider was already on its last breath, brought before Bibi Dong by Qian Xunji.
Before a Rank 93 Titled Douluo like Qian Xunji, a two-thousand-year Man Faced Demon Spider was no different from an ant that could be crushed at will, possessing no ability to resist.
"Dong'er, hurry and kill it. Absorb this second Soul Ring that belongs to you."
After dealing with the Man Faced Demon Spider, Qian Xunji looked at Bibi Dong and spoke slowly.
Hearing this, Bibi Dong nodded repeatedly like a chick pecking at grain, a joyful smile appearing on her face. Then, she summoned her Martial Soul, the Death Spider Emperor, and stabbed a spider lance straight into the Man Faced Demon Spider's head.
Not long after, the Man Faced Demon Spider died before Bibi Dong, and a purple Soul Ring rose from its corpse.
"Heehee, my second ring is two thousand years old, a thousand years higher than Junior Brother's second ring. I'm so happy."
With these thoughts, Bibi Dong sat cross-legged. Following the process of her first Soul Ring absorption, she first used Soul Power to guide the Soul Ring onto herself, then circulated her Soul Power to begin refining the energy within the ring.
While Bibi Dong was absorbing the Soul Ring, Yun Yuan and Qian Xunji stood by her side as Protectors.
Three hours later.
Bibi Dong finally opened her eyes slowly, her gaze filled with joy. After feeling her own condition, she jumped up happily.
"Junior Brother, Teacher, my Soul Power Rank has reached thirty. I can obtain my third Soul Ring now!"
After saying that, Bibi Dong crossed her arms, glanced at Yun Yuan, and lifted her head proudly.
"Junior Brother, my Soul Power Rank is the same as yours now, both at thirty. Once I get my third Soul Ring, my Soul Power Rank will be higher than yours. This Senior Sister of yours has finally taken the lead again!"
Hearing this, Yun Yuan smiled slightly. He would let his Senior Sister be arrogant for a few days; in a few more days, the Soul Power gap between him and Bibi Dong would return to what it was before.
Right at that moment, Bibi Dong's expression suddenly changed, her brows furrowing slightly. Feeling an abnormality in her body, she spoke with confusion:
"Junior Brother, Teacher, why does my back feel itchy? It's like something is about to sprout out."
Listening to Bibi Dong's words, Yun Yuan froze for a moment and glanced at the Man Faced Demon Spider beside her.
"Something growing on her back? Man Faced Demon Spider? No way, is Senior Sister's luck that good?"
Thinking of the scene in the original work where Tang San first obtained the Eight Spider Lances, Yun Yuan hurried behind Bibi Dong and began feeling around her back.
"Junior Brother, what are you doing?!"
Bibi Dong gave a soft cry, her face turning red as her body trembled slightly.
"Senior Sister, do exactly as I say now, or else you'll end up just like I did in the spring of the Yin Yang Ice and Fire Well."
"Concentrate your Soul Power at these positions I just pointed to. I'll provide Soul Power pressure from the outside in a moment."
Yun Yuan's expression was extremely serious, his voice carrying an unquestionable authority that left Bibi Dong no time to think; she instinctively followed his instructions.
After a while, Bibi Dong finally came to her senses and remembered what Yun Yuan had just said—about being like him in the Yin Yang Ice and Fire Well. Wouldn't that mean...
"No! Absolutely not! I have to increase my Soul Power, I can't let that thing on my back come out!"
While Bibi Dong used her Soul Power to suppress the thing trying to emerge from her body, Yun Yuan used his Soul Power pressure from the outside to keep it from surfacing.
A few minutes later, the strange sensation on Bibi Dong's back finally disappeared.
"Junior Brother, it seems to be okay now."
Qian Xunji, who was nearby, had also heard the exchange between Yun Yuan and Bibi Dong. Something emerging from the body? Just like Yun Yuan? He instantly knew what Bibi Dong had obtained.
Seeing that Bibi Dong was fine, he stepped forward with a face full of gratification.
"Dong'er, you are truly blessed. To think you would obtain an External Soul Bone this time."
Qian Xunji's tone carried a deep envy. To think that in his entire life, he had never even seen an External Soul Bone.
Yet, in less than two years since taking Yun Yuan and Bibi Dong as Disciples, he had seen three External Soul Bones. This made him sigh at the incredible luck of these two.
"External Soul Bone?"
Hearing this, Bibi Dong murmured, followed by a face full of joy. She had obtained an External Soul Bone, just like her Junior Brother—something whose rarity was second only to a hundred-thousand-year Spirit Bone.
At this moment, Yun Yuan chimed in with a few words to explain this External Soul Bone to Bibi Dong.
"Senior Sister, based on my understanding, the External Soul Bone dropped from a Man Faced Demon Spider is called the Eight Spider Lances."
