How it happened wasn't important. Just like in the original story, he successfully took Tang San as his disciple and met Tang Hao. He had even nearly been beaten to death by Tang Hao...

The man had opened with, "I've researched it..."

After staying at Tang San's home for a day, early the next morning,

he took Tang San to Nuoding City Soul Master Primary Academy and registered him as a work-study student three months in advance.

Then he set off for the Soul Hunting Forest, four hundred li away from Nuoding City.

After the two left, Tang Hao went to visit his wife, Ah Yin.

That Chaotic Cape Hammer Technique was forgotten in a corner...

Just after dawn, Zhong Tian took Zhong Li toward the Soul Hunting Forest.

The two did not take a carriage, instead taking a side road. By carriage, the trip was over four hundred li, but the side road was only a little over three hundred li.

Zhong Tian had intended to make Zhong Li run there, using the journey to train his body.

What he had never expected was that the kid could fly!

That Life-Draining Luck Seemed to Have Returned

That life-draining luck seemed to have returned.

Father and son left Grassroots Village and set out along the side road leading to the nearest Soul Hunting Forest.

It was called a side road, but it was not actually that narrow. The road was simply full of potholes and far less smooth than the official road, having gone unrepaired for years.

Not long after leaving, Zhong Li released the Wind Element God's Eye under Zhong Tian's astonished gaze.

Then he used the passive skill granted by the Wind Element God's Eye: Levitation!

He began flying at low altitude.

Calling it flight was not quite right, either. No Wind of Wings or anything similar had grown from his back.

While levitating, he could use his thoughts to control where he wanted to go, and he was not slow, either.

In a sense, it was far more impressive than flying.

Incidentally, he had not forgotten to give Zhong Tian a boost while he was at it.

This passive skill did not consume Soul Power. As long as Zhong Li wanted to, he could keep it active indefinitely.

When Zhong Tian felt his own speed increase under Zhong Li's boost,

by a full thirty percent, he was stunned! Zhong Tian was currently a Soul Saint.

And Zhong Li? He was merely a Soul Master with innate level twenty Soul Power who had yet to break through to become a Spirit Master!

The more he thought about it, the stranger his expression became!

This kid had not even obtained a Soul Ring yet!

Not only could he fly using his Martial Soul, he could also boost others at the same time!

They had been flying for half an hour already, yet the boost on him had never stopped. Zhong Tian could only sigh inwardly:

A God-Level Martial Soul was terrifying indeed!

It had been mentioned before that in its initial state, this boost gave thirty percent to himself and ten percent to nearby teammates.

For every level of Soul Power gained, both effects increased by one percent!

The mountains were green, the waters clear, and the scenery pleasant. A person flew through the sky while a soul chased along the ground.

Zhong Tian regretted it! He had taken the side road to train Zhong Li's body.

It was not as though he could not afford the carriage fare.

Otherwise, why would Zhong Li have so many Gold Soul Coins in his Storage Soul Tool?

Those Gold Soul Coins were enough to buy a low-grade Soul Bone.

He had never imagined that this kid could fly!

Zhong Li's current flying speed naturally could not truly compare to that of an Assault Type Battle Soul Sage.

But he had endurance! It did not consume anything at all!

"Huh? What's that?"

Zhong Li suddenly had a whim and stopped flying forward.

Seeing his son stop, Zhong Tian thought the kid had finally gotten tired and wanted to rest. He could take the opportunity to teach Zhong Li a lesson.

When traveling outside, one must never casually waste Soul Power, especially on something like rushing along the road.

In the world of Spirit Masters, no one knew what might happen the next moment!

What if you exhausted too much Soul Power and an enemy suddenly appeared? What would you do? Run, or wait to die?

But when he saw Zhong Li, neither flushed nor out of breath, walk toward the grass by the roadside, he said nothing.

Could this kid have drunk too much water and need to...

After walking to the edge of the grass, Zhong Li crouched down and began digging into the soil with his hands under Zhong Tian's astonished gaze.

His intuition told him that something was buried beneath.

Sure enough, after pushing aside the surface layer of dirt, there really was something underneath!

Zhong Li picked up an object tightly wrapped in some unknown kind of Soul Beast hide.

At that moment, the woman in yellow within Zhong Li's mind curled her lips slightly.

"Haha, he really thinks that was intuition. Morax, you really were the most fun when you looked like a child. After growing up, you were always so cold and distant..."

What intuition? She had merely used a tiny bit of psychological suggestion.

This sort of thing was quite useful in this world and could grant people immense power.

Though to him, it was utterly useless.

But since they had come across it, of course she had to remind him.

Even though he used to make her angry all the time.

The last time she found him, he had already been attending "university" in that world... (The author will fill this plot hole reasonably later.)

Of course, if Zhong Li now fused with just a little more of Morax's power and mastered a little more of the earth's power—Geo Element Power—he would have been able to sense it himself.

When Zhong Tian saw the object, his eyes widened!

He had a piece of Soul Beast hide of this material in his Storage Soul Tool!

And this very thing wrapped the item ranked second on every Spirit Master's dream list!

Hundred-Thousand-Year! Soul Bone!

Even if the object wrapped before them was not a Soul Bone, it was definitely extremely valuable.

Could something wrapped in the hide of a spatial Soul Beast possibly be anything but precious?

After being processed through special methods, the hide of spatial Soul Beasts could conceal an object's aura, Soul Power fluctuations, and more.

The older the Soul Beast, the stronger its hide's ability to isolate auras and Soul Power fluctuations. The hide itself was already a priceless treasure.

Before Zhong Tian could react, Zhong Li had already peeled open the Soul Beast hide.

A red, crystal-clear bone resembling a human arm appeared before Zhong Li.

This Soul Bone was exceptionally complete. There was not the slightest damage on it!

Powerful Soul Power fluctuations and a faint Dragon Might emanated from it.

"This Soul Bone is at least from a dragon Soul Beast over ninety thousand years old! And it's a Right Arm Bone!"

Under normal circumstances, a Spirit Master could fuse with six Soul Bones.

The torso, head, and four limbs.

Of these, the torso Soul Bone was the most important because it connected the head and all four limbs.

After that came the head Soul Bone. Then came the right arm, left arm, left leg, and right leg.

But for the Soul Bone before them, which part it belonged to was no longer important.

This was a Soul Bone from a Dragon-type Soul Beast at least ninety thousand years old! Did its location still matter?

Zhong Tian hurriedly released Soul Power, enveloping Zhong Li and the Soul Bone to prevent its aura from leaking out too strongly.

He then wrapped the Soul Bone in the Soul Beast hide. Only after the Soul Bone's aura and Soul Power fluctuations disappeared did he stop releasing Soul Power.

But he did not lower his guard, silently observing the surroundings...

It was only shortly after dawn. They had been out for less than two hours, so it was around seven in the morning.

This road had once been an official road. Ever since the new road had been built, few people traveled this route anymore.

Few did not mean none!

With Zhong Tian's eyesight, he could clearly see anything within two thousand meters on a plain.

This was not a plain, but the hills were not very high either.

After a long while, Zhong Tian let out a breath of relief. He had not discovered anyone within a thousand meters.

He filled in the dirt Zhong Li had dug up and even stomped on it twice.

He placed the Soul Bone, wrapped in beast hide, into Zhong Li's Storage Soul Tool.

A Storage Soul Tool was not something that only its wearer could use once someone else infused it with Soul Power.

As long as one could touch it, it did not care whose Soul Power was used.

An Unexpected Encounter, Why Had Those Two Arrived Three Months Early?

An unexpected encounter—why had those two arrived three months early?

After putting away the Soul Bone, Zhong Tian scooped Zhong Li up.

He sprinted more than a hundred li toward the Soul Hunting Forest in one breath before finally setting Zhong Li down.

"Son, today..."

"Dad, did anything happen today?"

Before Zhong Tian could finish, under his parents' training, he had already learned to answer first.

"That's right, nothing happened! Haha, let's walk to the Soul Hunting Forest from here on."

Zhong Tian's worries this time had been unnecessary. That Soul Bone had been buried there for more than twenty years.

It had been acquired when an expert with the strength of a Soul Fighting Douluo ambushed another quasi-Title Douluo who was absorbing his ninth Soul Ring.

That Soul Bone truly was from a Dragon-type Soul Beast over ninety thousand years old. Its actual age, however, was one hundred thousand years!

Back then, a level ninety-three Title Douluo had joined forces with five peak Soul Fighting Douluos before daring to challenge that Hundred-Thousand-Year Dragon-type Soul Beast.

In the end, they had overestimated themselves...

Only after the Title Douluo and two peak Soul Fighting Douluos self-destructed did they manage to severely injure the Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Beast.

If they had not been driven into a corner, they would not have self-destructed.

Even so, that severely wounded Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Beast went on to kill two more peak Soul Fighting Douluos.

Between life and death lay Great Terror. At the crucial moment, the remaining one broke through! He became a level ninety quasi-Title Douluo!

He completed the counterkill on the spot...

Yet while he was absorbing the Soul Ring, he was ambushed by a passing Soul Fighting Douluo...

That passing Soul Fighting Douluo had been drawn over by the earth-shaking battle here.

He had not expected to truly pick up such a bargain.

What he did not know was that he was not the only one unafraid of death. His actions had been witnessed by another Soul Saint with a Shadow Martial Soul...

That Soul Fighting Douluo had barely left the Star Dou Great Forest and had not yet had the chance to fuse with the Soul Bone.

Then he was besieged by a group of people. Relying on his formidable strength, he escaped... (No more making things up. It's enough to roughly know why the Soul Bone was there. This opportunistic thief can just exit the story.)
