Thirty-Thousand-Year Earth Dragon Leg Bone

"Da na~ da na~~"

After defeating the Thirty-Thousand-Year Earth Dragon King, Venusaur was immediately overcome with exhaustion, panting heavily.

Although Venusaur had just used Power Whip, it had almost exhausted all of its energy in one go, so much so that not only was the flower on its back somewhat withered, but it was even having some difficulty moving.

Fortunately, Venusaur possesses recovery moves like Ingrain and Solar Beam; otherwise, given Venusaur's current state, any slightly stronger Thousand-Year Soul Beast Venusaur pose a life-or-death crisis.

On the other side, as Venusaur continued to recover, Qing Mu's almost depleted Soul Power began to recover rapidly.

After gaining Soul Power, Qing Mu immediately activated the Grassy Terrain and began to heal her injuries using its healing Grassy Terrain.

For a moment, Qing Mu almost thought she was going to die, but fortunately, the Wood Spirit Seed's defense was strong enough to withstand more than 95% of the damage from that attack.

Otherwise, even if his physical strength far surpasses that of others of the same level, he absolutely would not be able to withstand it.

However, this experience also made Qing Mu realize the importance of defensive techniques even more deeply.

As his opponents grew stronger, the defense provided by a single Wood Spirit Seed was no longer sufficient to withstand the increasingly intense battlefield. Therefore, he needed to acquire a powerful defensive technique.

The moment Qing Mu set up Grassy Terrain, Venusaur, having regained its mobility, immediately ran towards Qing Mu.

Although Venusaur became much larger after evolving, its speed increased rather than decreased. With the help of the Sunny Day, it instantly covered a hundred meters and arrived in front of Qing Mu.

"Da na?"

Venusaur called out to Qing Mu anxiously, as if asking if Qing Mu was alright.

Qing Mu struggled to his feet, touched Venusaur's body, coughed, and said, "I'm fine, you've finally evolved."

Given its level, Ivysaur should have evolved long ago. The reason it hasn't evolved yet is simply because it lacks a trigger.

Qing Mu originally thought this opportunity would allow him to break through to the Soul Ancestor, but he never expected it to be such a battle.

After a while, Qing Mu's injuries had mostly healed, and her Soul Power had become abundant again.

Only then did Qing Mu and Venusaur truly relax, because the most dangerous time should have passed.

They had just fought a fierce battle with the Thirty-Thousand-Year Earth Dragon King, and their condition was unstable. If they encountered another Ten-Thousand-Year Soul Beast at this moment, it would pose an extremely strong threat to them.

But after recovery, the situation is completely different.

After evolving, Venusaur's combat power is greatly enhanced compared to Ivysaur, not only because of the increased stats, but also because Venusaur truly masters a Grass Type ultimate move, Power Whip.

The emergence of the Power Whip ended the situation where Venusaur lacked a powerful trump card, made up for Venusaur's current weakness, and enabled Qing Mu and Venusaur to achieve a leap in combat power.

"I didn't expect Venusaur to be the first Power Whip to learn it. I originally thought it would be Solar Beam," Qing Mu said with some surprise.

Although Qing Mu has been laying the groundwork for Power Whip, Power Whip is undoubtedly more difficult than Solar Beam, which can be learned by leveling up.

A moment later, Qing Mu finished healing completely, jumped onto Venusaur's back, and slowly walked towards the direction of the Thirty-Thousand-Year Earth Dragon King.

Before leaving, Qing Mu wanted to see his opponent, who had caused them such a terrible ordeal, one last time. Today's battle was destined to be etched in his memory.

At this moment, the Thirty-Thousand-Year Earth Dragon King was beyond dead, whipped by the Power Whip Venusaur. A jet-black Soul Ring hovered above his corpse, radiating Sisi aura of power.

"It's a pity that this Soul Ring is too old and its attributes don't quite match. Otherwise, based on the performance of that Thirty-Thousand-Year Earth Dragon King, it might have produced a stronger defensive Soul Skill than that 10,000- Ten-Thousand-Year Jade Shield Flower."

Qing Mu looked at the Soul Ring of the Thirty-Thousand-Year Earth Dragon King in front of him and said with some regret.

A 30,000-year-old dragon Soul Ring is sufficient to serve as the Seventh Soul Ring for Earth Type or dragon-type Martial Soul, and its effect might even be better than some 40,000- or 50,000-year-old Soul Ring. However, it is not suitable for Qing Mu in his current state, and therefore it is destined to be wasted.

"Hmm? This is..."

Suddenly, Qing Mu saw a glimmer of light among the fleshy corpse not far away.

The next moment, Venusaur extended a vine, burrowed into the flesh, and took out what was inside.

When Qing Mu saw what Venusaur had taken out, his eyes lit up.

"That's Soul Bone!"

Upon seeing that it was actually Soul Bone, Qing Mu's breathing became somewhat rapid.

He had previously thought that the Ten-Thousand-Year Jade Shield Flower hadn't dropped Soul Bone, but unexpectedly, it dropped an even better Thirty-Thousand-Year Soul Bone for him.

Although the Soul Bone produced by this Thirty-Thousand-Year Earth Dragon King was not a skull or torso bone, but just an ordinary Right Leg Bone, judging from the performance of the Earth Dragon King just now, the Soul Skill contained within it should be quite good.

After absorbing this Soul Bone, he should be able to significantly increase his combat abilities.

Furthermore, the defensive skill he acquired in his Fourth Soul Ring allows him to play a greater role against Venusaur in high-level battles.

"Da na!"

After seeing the Soul Bone, Venusaur's eyes lit up. Having been with Qing Mu, he naturally knew that this was an invaluable treasure for Spirit Master.

Venusaur immediately retracted its vines and handed the Soul Bone to Qing Mu.

Upon receiving the Soul Bone, Qing Mu did not choose to absorb it immediately.

Soul Bone can be absorbed at any time, but the Soul Ring of the Ten Ten-Thousand-Year Jade Shield Flower will probably dissipate if he doesn't go back to absorb it.

Immediately, Qing Mu conjured a white ball of light in his hand, which, under Qing Mu control, floated above him and Venusaur like a small sun.

After being exposed to the sun, Venusaur's color became even more vibrant green.

Qing Mu said to Venusaur, "Venusaur, let's go back and absorb the Soul Ring!"

"Da na!"

Venusaur nodded, then carried Qing Mu quickly in the direction they had come from.

Although their battle seemed to last a long time, in reality, less than half an hour had passed since they killed the Ten-Thousand-Year Jade Shield Flower.

During this period, not even Ten Thousand Year Soul Ring, let alone Hundred-Year Soul Ring, would dissipate so quickly.

Soon, Qing Mu arrived at the location where they had previously killed the Ten-Thousand-Year Jade Shield Flower. Above those emerald green crystals, a black Soul Ring still floated quietly.

Qing Mu adjusted his state slightly, then made a gesture with his right hand and began refining.
