External Soul Bone: Thunderclap Netherworld Spear, Ten-Thousand-Year Earth Vein Purple Ganoderma

And the Ten Thousand Year Spirit Ring of the Thunderclap Netherworld Vine condensed into shape.

Ye Yu immediately found a small patch of level ground on the cliff face and sat down cross-legged.

He closed his eyes again and began cultivating the Inner Elixir Method.

As the Soul Power within his body circulated,

the Ten Thousand Year Spirit Ring of the Thunderclap Netherworld Vine was immediately drawn over and suddenly settled around Ye Yu.

The next moment, an incomparably vast and violent surge of Soul Power, seeming to carry crackling lightning, instantly flooded into Ye Yu's body.

At the same time, it released a violent mental assault filled with resentment.

This was the soul shock that only arose when absorbing a Ten Thousand Year Spirit Beast's Spirit Ring!

And this time, the Soul Power released by the Thunderclap Netherworld Vine's Spirit Ring

far surpassed the Spirit Rings of the Undying Grass and Starlight Tree he had absorbed before, both in quality and quantity.

Under the impact on his body and meridians from the vast, violent Soul Power released by the Ten-Thousand-Year Thunderclap Netherworld Vine's Spirit Ring,

Ye Yu immediately felt pain as though his body were being torn apart. The same was true of the meridians within him, while his skin continuously split open, seeping crimson blood.

But the Blue Silver Emperor's Right Leg Bone had strengthened his body and granted it powerful recovery abilities.

The Spirit Rings of the Undying Grass and Starlight Tree had also enhanced his body's recovery power.

Of course, most importantly, there was the Blue Silver Emperor's Right Leg Bone's Second Spirit Skill that he had fused: Wildfire Cannot Burn It All, Spring Breezes Bring It Back to Life!

This Spirit Skill was passive.

As long as Ye Yu suffered relatively serious injuries, it would release life force to help restore his body.

At its limit, it could achieve Limb Regeneration!

For a time, Ye Yu sat cross-legged on the cliff face with his eyes tightly closed.

His handsome face was filled with pain. Dark-purple lightning flickered across his skin as countless tiny wounds continuously split open and seeped crimson blood, nearly staining his clothes red.

Perhaps the immense life force and recovery ability gained by the Blue Silver Spirit Jade Vine martial soul after acquiring its Spirit Rings had also enhanced Ye Yu's body. (Dugu Bo's thoughts)

Dugu Bo discovered in shock

that after the tiny wounds on Ye Yu's skin split open and seeped blood,

they healed rapidly at a speed measured in seconds!

In merely around three seconds, they had actually returned to normal!

It was simply unbelievable!

Meanwhile,

facing the soul shock produced by the Thunderclap Netherworld Vine's Spirit Ring,

Ye Yu's head also felt intense stabbing pain.

But perhaps because he had cultivated the Inner Elixir Method and tempered his mind,

Ye Yu's Spiritual Power and willpower far exceeded his current realm.

Furthermore, the Thunderclap Netherworld Vine was a plant-type Spirit Beast. Its intelligence and mental strength had always been weaker than those of beast-type Spirit Beasts, and so was the soul shock it generated.

Therefore, Ye Yu felt that he could still endure the soul shock.

Thus, Ye Yu endured the ravaging of the vast and violent Soul Power released by the Thunderclap Netherworld Vine's Ten Thousand Year Spirit Ring while his body continuously recovered at high speed.

This cycle repeated over and over.

It greatly tempered and strengthened Ye Yu's body!

Several hours later,

just as Ye Yu had completely adapted to the Soul Power released by the Thunderclap Netherworld Vine's Spirit Ring

and was about to completely absorb and refine the Spirit Ring released by the Thunderclap Netherworld Vine,

a strange mass of Soul Power suddenly surged out from the Thunderclap Netherworld Vine's Spirit Ring.

After entering Ye Yu's body,

it quickly flowed into his spine.

In an instant, Ye Yu's spine erupted with dazzling dark-purple light and bulged high, as though something were about to emerge from within.

Pain once again appeared on Ye Yu's face, and he bent deeply at the waist.

The bones in his back crackled continuously.

Finally, a dark-purple, jade-like cylindrical object emerged from Ye Yu's skin. Its patterns resembled the lightning markings on the Thunderclap Netherworld Vine, though its shape looked like a handle.

It suddenly pierced out through Ye Yu's skin and was exposed to the air.

Then, amid a series of crisp cracking sounds,

the dark-purple cylinder kept extending from his body, growing longer and longer.

In the end, it abruptly shot out. After spinning several times in the air, it instantly plunged into the ground.

It was actually a spear over two meters long, entirely dark purple and crystalline like jade, covered in lightning patterns, with an incomparably sharp spearhead!

"This is... an External Soul Bone?!"

When he saw the dark-purple spear embedded in the cliff face before Ye Yu, Dugu Bo's eyes widened in immense shock.

As for External Soul Bones, since his granddaughter Dugu Yan had already obtained the External Spirit Bone: Sky Demon Scorpion Tail Hook,

Dugu Bo was no longer particularly surprised by them.

But the issue was,

although External Soul Bone was a collective term for all Spirit Bones aside from the six major Spirit Bones—the Head Spirit Bone, Torso Spirit Bone, Left Arm Bone, Right Arm Bone, Left Leg Bone, and Right Leg Bone—

whether it was a spine bone, Adam's apple bone, palm bone, sole bone, or even an eye or heart,

Dugu Bo would not have been too surprised.

But what the hell was this dark-purple spear?!

An External Soul Bone being a spine bone was perfectly normal.

But being able to transform into a spear was simply unheard of!

At this moment, after Ye Yu had absorbed the Ten-Thousand-Year Thunderclap Netherworld Vine's Spirit Ring and successfully fused with this strange dark-purple spear External Soul Bone, he slowly opened his eyes.

A flash of dark-purple lightning passed through them.

After opening his eyes,

Ye Yu saw the dark-purple spear before him. It looked crystalline like jade, was covered in lightning patterns, gleamed with a metallic luster, and crackled with lightning along its shaft.

A strange look also flashed through Ye Yu's eyes.

He had never heard of this kind of External Soul Bone either!

Yet instinctively, he understood

the nature of the External Soul Bone he had fused.

This External Soul Bone from the Ten-Thousand-Year Thunderclap Netherworld Vine was extremely special.

Although it had fused into his spine,

the true main body of the External Soul Bone was the dark-purple spear in his hand.

For the dark-purple spear,

his spine was like a mother body.

Even if the dark-purple spear shattered into countless pieces, as long as none of the fragments were lost,

he could fuse them back into his spine and nurture it anew.

Normally, he could leave the dark-purple spear outside as a weapon.

He could also store it within his spine.

If the dark-purple spear were a sword, then his current spine could be said to be its sheath.

"I'll call you the Thunderclap Netherworld Spear!"

As Ye Yu gently stroked the dark-purple spear in his hand, he gave this unexpectedly acquired External Soul Bone a name.

"Xiao Yu, is this also an External Soul Bone?"

At this moment, Dugu Bo walked over and could not help asking.

"Grandpa, although it's somewhat strange, it really is."

Holding the Thunderclap Netherworld Spear, Ye Yu replied with an equally strange expression.

"The world is vast indeed; there are all kinds of wonders!"

Dugu Bo muttered to himself, feeling that he had truly broadened his horizons.

After that,

Ye Yu tested the Third Spirit Skill he had gained after absorbing the Thunderclap Netherworld Vine's Spirit Ring.

For this Spirit Skill, Ye Yu named it: Tribulation Ascension!

This Spirit Skill had two effects, one active and one passive.

The active effect was to summon rolling dark clouds, just like the Thunderclap Netherworld Vine.

Then it would draw down lightning, unleashing a sky full of thunderbolts from above to attack enemies in the surrounding area.

The passive effect was that when the Tribulation Ascension Spirit Skill was activated, the Blue Silver Spirit Jade Vine's life force and recovery power would be greatly enhanced.

If it suffered damage, so long as the Blue Silver Spirit Jade Vine could not be completely destroyed,

its strength would become even greater!

Paired with the Blue Silver Spirit Jade Vine's already formidable life force, this Spirit Skill could only be described with two words.

Those words were: invincible!

As for the Spirit Skill of the External Soul Bone: Thunderclap Netherworld Spear,

Ye Yu named it: Bite of Thunder!

Its effect was that it could release and absorb lightning. At the same time, it could devour metal to increase the spear's strength!

After absorbing the Thunderclap Netherworld Vine's Ten Thousand Year Spirit Ring,

Ye Yu tested his Soul Power once more.

Dugu Bo had originally thought that Ye Yu's Soul Power would stop short of level forty this time.

But unexpectedly, the result was still: level forty!

This left Dugu Bo utterly stunned.

This year, Ye Yu was thirteen.

A thirteen-year-old Soul Elder was extraordinarily rare. Only geniuses with extremely high Soul Master talent could attain it.

But across the entire Spirit Master World, there were still quite a few.

However, a thirteen-year-old Soul Ancestor was as rare as phoenix feathers and qilin horns!

After coming back to his senses, Dugu Bo immediately burst into laughter.

"Good! Excellent!"

Did this not mean that his future grandson-in-law was even more outstanding than he had imagined?!

Since Ye Yu had reached level forty, then he would continue finding Spirit Beasts for his future grandson-in-law!

Within the inner region of the Star Dou Great Forest, Dugu Bo continued searching with Ye Yu.

After nearly a week of searching,

they finally found another suitable plant-type Spirit Beast.

It was a plant-type Spirit Beast with a cultivation of twenty thousand years, bearing earth and life attributes and possessing equally formidable recovery abilities. Its name was Earth Vein Purple Ganoderma!
