Fourth Soul Skill, Soul Bone Skill

At this moment, the intense pain nearly made Xia Yang faint.

However, immediately afterward, a warm energy began to repair his damaged bones.

And so, Xia Yang persevered through the cycle of breaking and rebuilding.

The excruciating pain of shattered bones and the blissful feeling of rebirth alternated.

The feeling of experiencing both extremes of heat and cold is truly indescribable unless you experience it firsthand.

Outside, Liu Erlong and Tang Yuehua also noticed the abnormality in Xia Yang.

They saw that Xia Yang's left hand occasionally emitted a dark golden light, and the bones in his left hand even made a faint popping sound.

Xia Yang is clearly undergoing some kind of transformation.

"It seems Xia Yang has had a fortuitous encounter."

Liu Erlong said softly, his eyes filled with satisfaction.

Tang Yuehua nodded, the Ruyi Ring Martial Soul in her hand maintaining a faint silver light.

Clearly, she was ready to provide Soul Skill enhancement whenever Xia Yang needed help.

Night fell again, and the campfire crackled in the darkness.

The two women stayed by Xia Yang's side the whole time, never letting their guard down for a moment.

As the morning light of the second day pierced through the thin mist in the valley, Xia Yang finally opened his eyes.

At this moment, Xia Yang's gaze was like lightning, and his aura was several times stronger than before.

He gently clenched his left fist, and a faint, dark golden sheen could be seen flowing beneath the skin of his left hand.

"It's a success."

Xia Yang gave a tired but satisfied smile and said, "The Fourth Soul Ring, and... External Soul Bone."

He slowly raised his left hand, and with a slight thought, five dark golden claws instantly extended, gleaming with a cold luster in the morning light.

This is precisely the weapon that the Dark Gold Fear Claw Bear is most proud of.

However, it has now become a part of Xia Yang's body.

Liu Erlong and Tang Yuehua came forward, their faces showing surprise and delight as they looked at the imposing claw in Xia Yang's hand.

"This is an extremely rare External Soul Bone."

Tang Yuehua exclaimed, "It seems this adventure was worthwhile."

Liu Erlong patted Xia Yang on the shoulder and laughed, "With this, your strength should be greater than many Soul King, right?"

"Soul King? You underestimate me too much. I feel I can even fight a Soul Emperor!"

Xia Yang said confidently.

The rewards of this Soul Hunting Journey far exceeded his expectations.

Seeing Xia Yang's radiant appearance after successfully absorbing the Spirit Ring, Tang Yuehua couldn't help but curiously move closer.

Tang Yuehua asked, "Brother Xia, what is your fourth Soul Skill?"

"Let us see it!"

Xia Yang smiled confidently, then said, "Then you'd better watch carefully."

He took a few steps forward, creating some distance between himself and the two women, and stood facing the entrance to the valley.

Then, Xia Yang took a deep breath and began to circulate his Soul Power.

Xia Yang's aura suddenly surged.

Fourth Soul Skill: Tear Heaven God Claw!

With a clear shout from Xia Yang, a uniquely designed Purple Armor instantly covered his body.

The armor clearly shows the outline of the ribs.

Besides that, what's most striking are his two exceptionally thick arms.

This is the new form of Xia Yang's Martial Soul Evolution.

Xia Yang slowly raised his arms above his head.

The Purple Armor surrounding him also made the same movement in sync.

As Xia Yang's posture perfectly synchronized with the armor, a dazzling golden light suddenly burst forth from his hands, illuminating the entire entrance to the valley in a magnificent display.

"Tear Heaven God Claw, break it!"

Xia Yang slashed down with both hands, and the Purple Armor simultaneously swung its arms down as well.

In an instant, six golden blades, each about ten feet long, shot out from the Martial Soul's hands.

The light blade, accompanied by a piercing shriek as it tore through the air, shot straight into the depths of the valley.

"Snap!"

"Bang!"

"Boom!"

Wherever the blade of light passed, trees as thick as waists snapped in two.

Deep ravines were also carved into the rock walls on both sides.

Even a massive boulder weighing tens of tons directly in front of them was blasted into fragments by the golden light.

For a moment, the entrance to the valley was filled with smoke and dust, and flying stones.

"Roar--"

"Waaah--"

The commotion startled the Spirit Beast in the valley, and roars echoed from the depths, seemingly warning Xia Yang, the uninvited guest.

Liu Erlong stared at the scene before her, her beautiful eyes filled with shock.

"Long-range attack? This power... is even stronger than my fifth Soul Skill!"

Liu Erlong subconsciously compared Xia Yang's Soul Skill with her own and came to a conclusion that surprised her.

"Brother Xia, you're amazing!"

Tang Yuehua happily threw herself into Xia Yang's arms, her eyes sparkling with admiration.

Xia Yang, with the beauty in his arms, couldn't hide his smugness and confidently laughed, "Hehe, so-so."

"Brother Xia, I just saw your Martial Soul grow two arms?"

In Xia Yang's arms, Tang Yuehua's upturned face seemed to be studded with stars.

"That's right, my Martial Soul has indeed evolved into having two arms."

"It seems that choosing the Dark Gold Fear Claw Bear as my Fourth Soul Ring was absolutely the right decision."

Xia Yang nodded in satisfaction and said.

Suddenly remembering something, Liu Erlong asked curiously, "By the way, Xia Yang, when you were absorbing the Spirit Ring before, I saw your left hand glowing. Did you absorb Spirit Bone?"

"That's right, I did absorb a Spirit Bone."

Xia Yang's smile widened, and he excitedly exclaimed, "And it's External Soul Bone!"

"External Soul Bone?!"

The two women exclaimed in unison.

Liu Erlong couldn't hide his envy and said, "I didn't expect you to be so lucky!"

"However, let's examine the corpse of this Dark Gold Fear Claw Bear first; there might be other Spirit Bone inside."

Xia Yang agreed, and immediately took out a sharp dagger, walked to the huge corpse of the Dark Gold Fear Claw Bear, and began to examine it carefully.

"How is it, Brother Xia? Do you still have any Spirit Bone left?"

Tang Yuehua stood aside, watching Xia Yang's movements nervously.

"There shouldn't be any more, how could two Spirit Bone drop at once?"

As Xia Yang spoke, he laboriously peeled open the tough outer skin of the Dark Gold Fear Claw Bear.

This eight-thousand-year-old Spirit Beast was extremely robust, and its golden fur had amazing defensive capabilities, making the dissection work exceptionally difficult.

However, Xia Yang showed remarkable patience in the face of the temptation of the Spirit Bone.

After a thorough search, it was finally confirmed that there was no second Spirit Bone in the corpse.

Xia Yang shook his head with a slight regret.

He then swiftly chopped off two thick bear paws.

"Although there's no second Spirit Bone, this bear paw is a rare delicacy. Let's take it back and try it."

Liu Erlong gently comforted her, "Obtaining an External Soul Bone is already an immense stroke of luck."

"I know."

Xia Yang nodded, gesturing for the two women to step back a bit.

"You all step aside, I'll test the power of this Left Palm Bone."
