Lu Ming's Wish Red Packet! Bibi Dong Went Mad Snatching It! Anything Is Possible!

It worked!

But that wasn't all.

Immediately afterward, two black Soul Rings radiating a deep, shadowy glow appeared out of thin air, hovering quietly before him.

God-Bestowed Soul Rings!

There was no need to hunt Soul Beasts. They could be absorbed directly, and would grant the most suitable age according to the absorber's physical limit!

Without hesitation, Lu Ming immediately sat down cross-legged and began absorbing them.

Guided by him, the first God-Bestowed Soul Ring slowly merged into his body.

A powerful surge of energy battered his body, but after his recent explosive increase in Soul Power, this impact was nothing to him.

The absorption process went incomparably smoothly.

A moment later, a deep black Soul Ring rose from beneath his feet and slowly pulsed around his body.

Fourth Soul Ring, fifty thousand years!

Without pausing, he continued absorbing the second one.

Another identical black Soul Ring rose.

Fifth Soul Ring, also fifty thousand years!

At this point, Lu Ming's Soul Ring configuration had become the horrifying two yellow, three black!

If outsiders saw it, their jaws would surely drop.

A Soul King actually possessed three Ten Thousand Year Soul Rings, two of which were at the fifty-thousand-year level!

This was simply unprecedented!

After the Soul Rings had been absorbed, another massive flood of information poured into his mind.

Countless Soul Tool blueprints, manufacturing principles, core formations... he absorbed them all like a surging tide.

From the most basic Level-One Soul Tools to the legendary Level-Nine Fixed-Mounted Soul Cannon Shells, all that knowledge was now imprinted deep within his memory.

He had now become a top-tier theoretical Soul Engineer!

The final reward was also the most precious one.

Six Spirit Bones glittering with brilliant blue-gold light appeared out of thin air before him.

Skull Bone, Torso Bone, Left Arm Bone, Right Arm Bone, Left Leg Bone, Right Leg Bone!

A thirty-thousand-year Blue Silver Emperor Spirit Bone Set, all six pieces, no more and no less!

Compared to a single Spirit Bone, a set of Spirit Bones was worth exponentially more. It could also be absorbed and fused directly without any side effects, and could even be stripped away for others to use without endangering their lives.

"..."

With a thought from Lu Ming, the six Spirit Bones transformed into six streaks of light and merged into his body one after another.

An indescribable sense of comfort spread through his entire body as the Spirit Bone Set comprehensively strengthened and transformed him.

His strength, speed, defense, spiritual power... all rapidly increased.

After a long while, the light faded.

Lu Ming slowly opened his eyes, and a sharp gleam flashed through them.

He clenched his fist, feeling the surging power within him, and his mood improved greatly.

This harvest had given him the true ability to protect himself.

Just then, the system's voice rang out again.

[Ding! The Chat Group's activity has met the requirement for three consecutive days. A random benefit will now be distributed...]

[Benefit draw complete. Congratulations, Host, for obtaining a "Wish Red Packet"!]

A Wish Red Packet?

Lu Ming raised an eyebrow, then opened the Chat Group Interface.

He was in a good mood, so it was time to give those adorable "leeks" in the group a little sweetness.

[Emperor Lu: @All Members, stop chatting. Get ready to grab the red packet.]

The moment he spoke, the group fell silent for an instant before exploding into uproar.

[Little Witch: A red packet? Great Group Master is giving out a red packet? What good stuff is it?]

[Poison Fairy: How many are there?]

[Bunny is the Cutest: Is it Soul Coins?]

[Pontiff: Playing mysterious games.]

Seeing the group's reaction, Lu Ming smiled and slowly typed.

[Emperor Lu: This red packet is called a "Wish Red Packet," and there is only one.]

[Emperor Lu: Whoever gets it can receive the one thing they desire most deep in their heart.]

[Emperor Lu: Of course, the more precious the item, the lower the chance of getting it. But I can guarantee that whatever comes out will be what the winner needs most right now.]

Lu Ming's words were like a depth charge, stirring up towering waves in the group.

The entire Chat Group fell into deathly silence.

A moment later.

[Little Witch: !!!! What? We can get what we desire most? Is that real? Group Leader, you're not joking, are you?]

[Gentle Fire Dragon: Th-this is too incredible, isn't it?]

[Fox is Most Pure: What if I want a way to become a god? Can I get that too?]

[Pontiff: ...]

[I Have No Mother: ...]

Although Bibi Dong and Qian Renxue said nothing, their breathing quickened at that moment.

Godhood!

It was the pursuit of their entire lives!

If this red packet was truly so miraculous...

[Emperor Lu: In theory, yes. But as for the odds, you understand.]

Lu Ming's ambiguous answer only made everyone's hearts leap into their throats.

No matter how slim the chance, it was still hope!

[My Son is Not a Bastard: May I ask... can it bring someone back to life?]

Ah Yin asked cautiously, her tone full of unease and anticipation.

[My Cat is White and Big: Right now, all I want is great power!]

Having just experienced betrayal, Zhu Zhuqing's desire for power had reached its peak.

[Snow Woman: What if I want a real human body?]

In the Extreme North, Snow Empress looked at her crystal-clear ice-jade legs and could not help speaking up.

[Little Witch: Wow! Snow Woman's legs are so pretty! If the red packet could give me legs that beautiful, I'd be satisfied too!]

[Fox is Most Pure: Hmph, my legs aren't bad either, okay?]

[I Have No Mother: A bunch of shallow women. What determines a figure is overall proportion.]

[Pontiff: Heh, as if your figure is the best in the world.]

Seeing the topic about to veer somewhere strange again, Lu Ming stopped them in time.

[Emperor Lu: Get ready. I'm sending it.]

That single sentence made everyone in the group hold their breath.

Inside Spirit Hall, Bibi Dong wore a solemn expression, her eyes fixed tightly on the screen before her.

In Heaven Dou City, within the Crown Prince's Eastern Palace, Qian Renxue set down the documents in her hand. Even her usually calm face showed a trace of nervousness.

At Shrek Academy, Ning Rongrong, Xiao Wu, and Zhu Zhuqing clasped their hands together and prayed silently.

At Blue Tyrant Academy was Liu Erlong.

In Spirit City was Hu Liena.

In the Extreme North, within an ice-and-snow-covered palace, Snow Empress also set aside her usual coldness, expectation glimmering in her eyes.

Everyone's hearts were stirred at that moment.

The atmosphere was tense to the extreme.

Lu Ming looked at the tense atmosphere in the group.

He no longer kept everyone in suspense and lightly tapped the air with his fingertip.

[System Notification: Emperor Lu has sent a Wish Red Packet.]

The instant the red packet appeared, the entire Chat Group seemed to freeze.

No one spoke. On the screens in their Seas of Consciousness, only that red icon radiating an alluring glow remained.

The next second, everyone went mad!

Countless strands of Divine Sense surged wildly toward the red packet icon, trying to open it.
