Ten months passed in the blink of an eye.
After nearly a year of cultivation, Su Ze's Soul Power reached Level Seventeen.
During this past year, with the boost from his Sikong Zhen Martial Soul, his Body Strength had already reached the Soul Elder level.
The year of the Soul Rings he could absorb also increased to over 2000 years.
And today, he planned to graduate from Nuoding Academy.
The reason was simple.
Just the day before yesterday, he happened to pass by Director Liu's office and overheard Yu Xiaogang and Tang San talking about his Father, Tang Hao, being missing.
Su Ze didn't quite catch the comforting words that followed.
However, based on this information, he was completely certain that Tang Hao must have gone elsewhere, no longer in Sacred Soul Village or Nuoding City.
This meant it was the perfect time to head to Sacred Soul Village and seize the Hundred Thousand Year Soul Bone.
After cleaning the single dormitory he had lived in for nearly a year, Su Ze approached Director Liu.
"Su Ze, are you sure you want to graduate?"
Director Liu looked somewhat surprised.
Although, given Su Ze's Age, he had long met the standards for graduating from Nuoding Academy.
He had thought the young man would wait until he broke through to Level Twenty before choosing to graduate.
He had been thinking these past few days about calling in favors to organize Personnel to help Su Ze obtain his Second Soul Ring.
He hadn't expected Su Ze to be graduating so soon.
"Why not wait until you reach Level Twenty? I can still organize Personnel to escort you in obtaining your second Soul Ring then."
Hearing Director Liu's concerned words, Su Ze was deeply Moved.
In the entire Nuoding Academy, Director Liu was the best person to him.
He kept this in his heart.
If he succeeded in intercepting the Immortal Herb in Heaven Dou City later, he would leave one for Director Liu.
"No, Director Liu, I plan to go to Heaven Dou City to try my luck and see the big city."
"Besides, I heard the Crown Prince of the Heaven Dou Empire is eager for talented individuals, so I plan to give it a try."
It had to be said, Qian Renxue was particularly fond of recruiting all sorts of talents during his time disguised as the Heaven Dou Crown Prince.
Su Ze planned to use Qian Renxue as a stepping stone to enter Heaven Dou Royal Academy.
After hearing Su Ze's choice, Director Liu's desire to persuade him further subsided.
Indeed, a genius like Su Ze should go to a bigger stage.
Nuoding City was too small.
Moreover, he had also heard the news of the Heaven Dou Crown Prince recruiting geniuses.
With Su Ze's talent and his precious mutated Lightning Attribute Martial Soul.
Gaining the Heaven Dou Crown Prince's appreciation should not be a problem.
Even if he didn't, he could still join other advanced academies in Heaven Dou City based on his talent.
"Since it's your choice, then go."
"Heaven Dou Imperial City, the heart of the entire empire, is indeed the most suitable place for a genius like you."
"I've stayed in this small place my whole life, so I don't have much experience to teach you!"
"The only thing I can say is, be careful!"
"If you encounter any danger on the way, remember to run!"
"As a genius, your life is the most important."
"And if something unexpected really happens, come back to Nuoding City. Being a teacher like me then wouldn't be a bad thing either."
Director Liu initially had an investment mindset, but as he spent more time with Su Ze.
He grew to like this child, who had powerful talent, upright values, and was polite.
So, at their parting, Director Liu's words were filled with concern.
"Don't worry, Uncle Liu, I'll be careful."
Finally, Su Ze bowed to Director Liu.
He bid farewell and left!
Since he was given a second life, Su Ze's ambition was simple.
A man's ambition lies in all directions.
Living a second life.
He wanted to stand at the most beautiful scenery on the Douluo Continent.
Su Ze left without a sound.
It wasn't until Tang San wanted to challenge Su Ze and couldn't find him that Su Ze's graduation slowly spread throughout Nuoding Academy.
This departure left Tang San's face ashen.
Su Ze, that bastard, no wonder he resold the Tang Sect Hidden Weapons that Tang San had left in Twenty-Four Bridges Moonlit Night back to him.
So he was preparing to leave.
He had originally used the materials for the Tang Sect Hidden Weapons that he was short of to forge the Zhuge Divine Crossbow.
He was prepared to wash away his shame in this bloody battle!
He never expected Su Ze to actually leave.
This also meant that among the graduates of Nuoding Academy, and even in the subsequent campus legends that would be spread.
He, Tang San, would forever be trampled underfoot by Su Ze.
Damn Su Ze, not only did he scam my Gold Soul Coins.
He even dared to graduate and leave without being defeated by me?
What a coward!
A hint of anger flashed in Tang San's eyes.
Su Ze was courting death.
When they met again, he would definitely make the other party pay a heavy price.
While Tang San was cursing Su Ze in his heart.
Su Ze had already arrived at Sacred Soul Village.
Without alerting anyone, Su Ze began searching near Sacred Soul Village using his Sikong Zhen Martial Soul.
After nearly a year of familiarization, Su Ze had developed a new ability for his martial soul.
That was sensing!
This ability should have come from the Storm Dragon King.
This kingly martial soul of the Lightning Attribute, which had not yet awakened, had an extremely high status.
So when encountering treasures, there would be a kind of unseen guidance.
Su Ze planned to use this guidance to find the Hundred Thousand Year Soul Bone that Tang Hao had hidden around Sacred Soul Village.
Relying on his senses, he pushed aside thick vines and moss, following the water's flow as he climbed a steep slope.
After climbing the slope, his vision suddenly opened up.
Beneath a massive rock face ahead, a waterfall cascaded down from a height of several zhang.
Looking at the distant waterfall, Su Ze's eyes lit up.
In the Original Work, the Hundred Thousand Year Soul Bone was hidden by Tang Hao within a waterfall.
"This should be the place."
Slowly walking forward, Su Ze passed through the waterfall, his figure disappearing into the flowing water.
Su Ze's figure entered the dark cave, his footsteps echoing off the stone walls.
Looking at the dim environment before him, Su Ze reached out his hand, and the next moment, White Lightning danced in his palm.
It illuminated the path ahead.
Following the light provided by the lightning, Su Zhe slowly walked towards the depths of the cave.
Soon, Su Ze arrived before a stone door.
Looking at the marks of manual carving around the stone door, Su Ze became even more certain he was in the right place.
After pushing the door open, in the center of the stone chamber was a small mound about Half Meter high.
Growing on that small mound was a Blue Silver Grass. Unlike ordinary Blue Silver Grass, the leaves of this plant were adorned with a faint, almost imperceptible Golden hue.
Almost instantly, Su Ze confirmed its identity: Tang San's birth mother.
And the origin of the Blue Silver Grass bloodline, the Blue Silver Emperor!
The moment he saw her, Su Ze's gaze began to search the surroundings.
Soon, on a slightly protruding wall to his right, he discovered an extremely subtle bump.
"Found it!"
Su Ze quickly strode to the stone wall and slammed his palm against it.
Bang!
As his palm landed, the stone wall trembled slightly.
The hidden mechanism activated, and a long, black box dropped from the top of the stone wall.
Su Zhe reached out and steadily caught the box.
Then, he impatiently opened it.
The next instant, an extremely dense life aura surged towards him like a tidal wave.
Immediately after, blue-gold light erupted from the box.
Through the light, Su Ze saw a soul bone lying quietly within the box. It was crystal clear and possessed faint blue-gold patterns.
"Hundred Thousand Year Soul Bone!"
"Finally found it!"
