Chapter 51: External Soul Bone.
A healing soul skill of the ten-thousand-year level?
What kind of monster is this?!
Ye Xuanming steadied himself and moved his arm, which had recovered completely.
He didn't want to drag it out any longer.
He stretched out his hands, and the blue-gold life-gold Blue Silver Grass and the purple-gold dark Blue Silver Grass appeared simultaneously in his palms.
Two distinct forces began to converge in his palm.
On one side was a sacred and vast aura of life, and on the other side was a destructive wave that devoured everything.
Life and death, creation and destruction.
Life Silver Grass represents the power of creation that is endless and everlasting, while Dark Silver Grass represents the power of destruction that returns to nothingness.
Two opposing forces swirled slowly in his palm, gradually reaching a balance and forming a wondrous loop.
The purple first soul ring flickered slightly.
"Fused Soul Skill, Reincarnation Overlord Spear!"
A brand new spear materialized in his hands.
One half of the gun barrel is a dazzling blue-gold, engraved with intricate life patterns, while the other half is a deep purple-gold, entwined with a deathly black aura.
Two forces converged at the tip of the spear, forming a point of chaotic and indistinct light.
The dark green scorpion king felt an unprecedented threat. It let out a sharp screech and poured all its soul power into its tail hook, clearly preparing to unleash its strongest attack.
Ye Xuanming did not give it that chance.
He slightly bent his knees, exerted force from his waist and abdomen, and instantly tensed his arm muscles, throwing the Samsara Overlord Spear with all his might.
The spear transformed into a streak of black and gold light, tearing through the air and leaving a trail that lingered for a long time.
The dark green scorpion king's all-out attack also met it at the same time.
The tail hook and the spear tip, the poison and the cycle of reincarnation, collided violently in mid-air.
The moment the tip of the Reincarnation Overlord Spear touched the tail hook, the chaotic point of light suddenly began to spin.
The venomous soul power that the dark green ghost king scorpion was so proud of was decomposed, devoured, and transformed the moment it came into contact with the light.
The seemingly indestructible tail hook is as fragile as rotten wood in the face of the power of reincarnation.
The spear did not hesitate for a moment, easily piercing the tail hook, and then precisely piercing the head of the dark green scorpion.
"Pfft!"
The gun barrel emerged from the back of its head, pinning its massive body firmly to the ground.
The eight legs of the dark green scorpion twitched wildly a few times, the fierce light in its eyes quickly dimmed, and it finally lost all its life.
The entire woodland fell silent instantly.
Ye Xuanming slowly exhaled a breath of turbid air; that move had almost drained a third of his soul power.
As the dark green scorpion king died, its enormous body began to slowly dissipate, eventually leaving only a deep purple soul ring and a purplish-black scorpion tail that shimmered with an eerie light.
External Soul Bone!
Ye Xuanming stepped forward and picked up the scorpion tail soul bone.
This thing is shaped exactly like a scorpion's tail. It feels cool and hard to the touch and contains enormous energy inside.
This scorpion tail bone is perfect for Dugu Yan.
In this way, Dugu Yan's poison is also contained by an external soul bone.
Her martial soul is the Azure Phosphorous Serpent, which is also poisonous. Absorbing this soul bone will definitely greatly increase her combat power.
He satisfiedly stored the soul bone in his storage soul tool, without even glancing at the five-thousand-year-old soul ring.
Only then did Shui Bing'er recover from the immense shock.
She walked out from behind the tree with slightly unsteady steps, looking at the tall and upright young man in the center of the open space, feeling nothing but endless horror.
The Three-Ring Soul Master slays a five-thousand-year-old Soul Beast.
This is beyond what genius can describe.
This is a monster, a demon!
"you..."
Just as Shui Bing'er was about to say something, hurried footsteps and shouts suddenly came from the other side of the forest.
"Bing'er! Bing'er, where are you?" A mature woman's voice came from afar, filled with anxiety.
Soon, a group of three people ran out of the forest, led by a beautiful blue-haired woman who still retained her charm.
Upon seeing Shui Bing'er, her face immediately lit up with joy, but her expression quickly froze.
The beautiful woman's gaze passed over Shui Bing'er and landed on the still-dissipating dark green corpse of the Ghost King Scorpion, and on Ye Xuanming standing beside the corpse.
"Bing'er! Are you alright?"
The beautiful woman flashed to Shui Bing'er's side and nervously examined her body.
"Teacher, I'm fine." Shui Bing'er's voice drew the beautiful woman's attention back.
"It was this... Brother Ye Xuanming who saved me."
The beautiful woman then began to properly examine Ye Xuanming, and another woman behind her and a girl who looked to be about the same age as Shui Bing'er quickly followed.
The girl looked seven or eight parts like Shui Bing'er, except that her hair was a lighter shade of blue and tied into lively twin ponytails.
"Sister! You scared me to death!"
The girl hugged Shui Bing'er tightly, then peeked out and looked at Ye Xuanming curiously.
"You're the one who saved my sister? Big brother, you're amazing!"
"Moon, don't be rude."
The beautiful woman softly rebuked him, then turned to Ye Xuanming and bowed slightly.
"Thank you for your help. I am Shui Luoxin, a teacher at Tianshui Academy. This is my younger sister, Shui Rouxin. They are the sisters Shui Bing'er and Shui Yue'er."
Ye Xuanming also returned the gift simply.
"Ye Xuanming, a student of the Heavenly Dou Royal Academy."
To avoid unnecessary trouble, he paused for a moment and then added a sentence.
"The name of the elder in my family is Dugu Bo."
The moment the name "Dugu Bo" was uttered, both Shui Luoxin and Shui Rouxin froze instantly.
Although Shui Luoxin's expression didn't change much, her hand on Shui Bing'er's shoulder tightened unconsciously.
Poisonous Dorothy.
This title represents calamity in the world of Soul Masters.
Shui Luoxin suppressed the turmoil in her heart, and her gaze fell on the still not completely dissipated dark green corpse of the scorpion ghost king.
"This soul beast...was killed by Your Excellency?"
Her voice was steady, and the question itself was full of inquiry.
No matter what, a Soul Master could never defeat a five-thousand-year-old dark green scorpion ghost king.
But the facts are right in front of us.
Then, when she thought of the name "Dugu Bo," an absurd yet seemingly the only reasonable explanation came to mind.
Perhaps only that monster who manipulates all the deadly poisons in the world has the means to cultivate another monster.
This young man is definitely not just an ordinary student at the Heavenly Dou Royal Academy.
His background is far more terrifying than imagined.
Shui Luoxin took a deep breath and forcefully suppressed all her thoughts of investigation.
A gentle smile returned to her face.
"Your Excellency's abilities are truly admirable. We at Tianshui Academy will remember your kindness today."
She didn't ask another question, nor did she glance at the five-thousand-year-old soul ring.
"Since Bing'er is alright, we won't bother you any longer. We'll take our leave now."
Shui Luoxin acted decisively. After speaking, she pulled Shui Bing'er and Shui Yue'er, who were still somewhat dazed, and prepared to leave.
"Brother Xuanming!"
Before leaving, Shui Bing'er turned back to look at Ye Xuanming, "When I have my vacation, I'll come to Tiandou City to find you!"
Ye Xuanming simply nodded.
He watched the group disappear quickly into the woods before turning around and continuing on his way.
He didn't notice that Shui Bing'er, who was secretly watching from behind a tree, blushed when she saw him nod.
At this moment, Shui Bing'er was unaware that the "Brother Xuanming" she spoke of was actually younger than her.
...
Seven days later, at dusk.
The afterglow of the setting sun bathed the walls of Tiandou City in a warm golden light.
Ye Xuanming walked wearily through the city gate.
They're finally back.
