Yu Yuanzhen and the Grand Elder were once again persuaded.
After all, Yu Xiaogang was right; in the future, he would definitely find a way to add hundred-thousand-year spirit rings to himself.
When that time comes, the corresponding Hundred Thousand Year Soul Beasts will surely drop hundred-thousand-year spirit bones.
Such Spirit Bones would be the most suitable for Yu Xiaogang.
If Yu Xiaogang absorbed the hundred-thousand-year Left Arm Bone dropped by the Moon Devouring Azure Wolf now, and the Hundred Thousand Year Soul Beast he hunted for his spirit ring also dropped a Left Arm Bone...
That would be disastrous. Replacing a perfectly compatible hundred-thousand-year spirit bone with an incompatible one would be a massive loss!
Therefore, the best course of action for now was not to rush into absorbing this hundred-thousand-year spirit bone. Once Yu Xiaogang had all his spirit rings, if his left arm slot was still empty, it wouldn't be too late to absorb it then.
Yu Yuanzhen and the Grand Elder could understand the logic with just a bit of thought.
But for some reason, why did they always feel like their hands were itching to hit someone?
"To think such a thing exists in this world—obtaining a hundred-thousand-year spirit bone and not absorbing it immediately."
"Truly, the longer one lives, the more strange things one sees."
The Grand Elder stroked his beard, speaking with a peculiar expression.
"Who says otherwise?"
Yu Yuanzhen agreed.
Originally, he thought his son would definitely absorb this Spirit Bone this time, but the boy had found another reason not to.
What's more, the reason was so sound that even he agreed with Yu Xiaogang's decision not to absorb it.
"Fine then. I'll keep this Spirit Bone for you for now, and give it to you when you need it later."
Putting the Spirit Bone into a storage soul tool, Yu Yuanzhen glanced at Yu Xiaogang. Seeing that the boy didn't even have a hint of reluctance on his face, he suddenly felt a pang of frustration.
This son of his, though he had faced trials along the way, had also seen sights at a young age that ordinary Spirit Masters wouldn't see in a lifetime.
"I wonder what will happen when he truly has the strength to start traveling the world on his own?"
Yu Yuanzhen was already looking forward to the sensation his son would cause when he ventured across the Douluo Continent in the future.
Back when he traveled the Douluo Continent, he had seen all the sights and faced countless challenges.
Through constant battles, the name Yu Yuanzhen spread from the upper circles of the Douluo Continent to everyone's ears.
It was only when he became a Titled Douluo with the title 'Thunder' that he truly became a legendary figure across the Douluo Continent.
Without those years of traveling, even if he had become a Titled Douluo, ordinary Spirit Masters would only know that the Douluo Continent had gained another Titled Douluo.
Beyond that, many wouldn't even care what this Titled Douluo looked like to prevent offending them in the future.
The only power on the entire Douluo Continent capable of spreading their names was Spirit Hall, but Spirit Hall wouldn't help them gain fame.
Therefore, the Prodigies born into the Upper Three Sects, the Lower Four Sects, and even lower-tier powers would all travel the continent once they reached a certain level of strength.
Besides broadening their horizons, it was also to bring fame to their Sect and themselves.
As his son, whom Yu Yuanzhen and the Sect Elders intended to have take over the position of Sect Master in the future, Yu Xiaogang would certainly have to travel the continent.
He would make his name known across the continent, becoming a golden brand for the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Sect.
Relying on his reputation, he would attract talented Spirit Masters to join and continuously strengthen the Sect.
This was something a Prodigy from the Upper Three Sects had to do; to some extent, it was their responsibility.
"Hehe, I'm really curious to see the reactions of my old friends when my son travels the continent and defeats all those geniuses."
Yu Yuanzhen thought expectantly.
Having successfully helped the Grand Elder obtain his ninth spirit ring, the group's objective for this trip was complete.
Learning the secrets of becoming a god on the continent and reaching a cooperation with ARou and the others were unexpected bonuses.
However, because of the Sky Azure Bull Python's Azure Silence Thunder, Yu Yuanzhen decided to deepen the cooperation with those Spirit Beasts.
Thus, Yu Yuanzhen wanted to stay permanently in the town they were currently in.
It wasn't far from where they met ARou and the others. In the future, he could drop by whenever he wanted to chat with them.
"You clearly just want to get away from the Sect's work."
Looking at Yu Yuanzhen's righteous face, the Grand Elder secretly complained in his heart.
Having been together for so many years, the Grand Elder had a good idea of what his Sect Master was like.
He knew the main purpose was to seek guidance from the Sky Azure Bull Python regarding its Azure Silence Thunder, but escaping his duties as Sect Master was definitely part of the plan too.
"Sigh, I hope Xiaogang grows up soon and takes over the position of Sect Master."
"With Xiaogang's personality of loving to read and learn, he shouldn't be like the Sect Master, right?"
Not knowing that the Yu Xiaogang he was looking forward to was an even more difficult fellow to deal with, the Grand Elder held some expectations for him.
Afterward, Yu Yuanzhen and the Grand Elder sent Yu Xiaogang and Bibi Dong to Spirit City.
After arriving at Spirit City, Yu Yuanzhen left for a while.
Looking at the direction, he was heading toward Spirit Hall.
Yu Xiaogang had a rough guess as to what his father wanted to do at Spirit Hall.
This time, while obtaining his third spirit ring, he had only been out for two or three months, yet his Soul Power had soared from Rank 30 to Rank 42.
With such a rate of progress, his father would definitely have to inform the higher-ups of Spirit Hall in advance.
Otherwise, once his father left and they found out about his information, it would be him who would have to face all sorts of inquiries and investigations from Spirit Hall's high-ranking members.
Sure enough, after half a day, Yu Yuanzhen returned with a look of pure satisfaction.
"Hahaha, that fellow Qian Xunji! When we were traveling the continent back then, he relied on his high Rank to bully us. This time, I finally got my revenge!"
As soon as he returned, Yu Yuanzhen couldn't help but laugh heartily.
"Uh, Father, did you go and fight with His Excellency the Supreme Pontiff?"
Yu Xiaogang was somewhat surprised.
"Of course! Xiaogang, you don't know how arrogant Qian Xunji was when our generation was still young."
"He led Spirit Hall's enforcement teams everywhere to wipe out Wolftaken, fallen Spirit Masters, and the like."
"Spirit Hall has deep pockets, so Qian Xunji never lacked Spirit Bones. Combined with his amazing talent, his Rank always suppressed ours."
"Every time we met that guy, he had that high-and-mighty look, as if we were some kind of lowly people."
"All day long he'd be muttering about 'rule' and 'conquest' and such. His ambitions were certainly not small."
"But now, he can't beat me anymore! Hahahaha, you should have seen how shocked he was when he learned about my situation."
Yu Yuanzhen laughed as he recounted the scene of him overwhelming Qian Xunji.
Hearing his father's tone, Yu Xiaogang could tell that he was truly happy.
"It seems the previous Supreme Pontiff's style of doing things was quite unpleasant. To make Father remember it for so many years and rush over to beat him up as soon as his strength increased..."
Yu Xiaogang rubbed his chin.
"Also, rule, conquest..."
"Could it be that His Excellency the Supreme Pontiff actually has the idea of unifying the Douluo Continent?"
