[System Mission: Devour Luo Sanpao] [Mission Description: Although Yu Xiaogang is nothing but the most useless of the useless, his Mutated Martial Soul, Luo Sanpao, contains a trace of Golden Sacred Dragon bloodline! Devouring it will greatly increase your cultivation.] [Mission Reward: 500 years of cultivation]
At Yao Xuan's thought, a translucent mission window appeared before him!
Holy crap, five hundred years of cultivation! I've struck it rich! If I don't devour Luo Sanpao after this, what kind of person would I be?
Looking at Yu Xiaogang in the distance, excitement flashed in Yao Xuan's eyes.
He had already planned to deliver a dose of justice to Tang San and Yu Xiaogang, that pair of unscrupulous master and disciple, and teach them a lesson.
He hadn't expected the system to issue a mission, too.
Devouring Luo Sanpao would earn him five hundred years of cultivation, bringing him a huge step closer to the thousand years he needed to take human form.
So what reason did he have not to attack Yu Xiaogang at once?
With that thought, Yao Xuan strode forward without hesitation and revealed his true form before Yu Xiaogang.
At that moment, Yu Xiaogang was staring at Tang San, fists clenched, his face full of tension.
Although he had confidently told Tang San that a Soul Master with a plant-type Martial Soul could absorb Soul Rings from animal Soul Beasts, his so-called "Ten Core Competencies of Martial Soul" theory was nothing more than a patchwork of made-up nonsense, with no scientific basis.
That was why Yu Xiaogang felt uneasy about whether Tang San could successfully fuse with the Mandala Snake Soul Ring.
But just then, Yu Xiaogang suddenly noticed a strange Soul Beast standing before him.
It was about a meter long, covered in golden fur, with translucent crystal scales beneath it. Its overall shape resembled a lion, but it had four dragon-like claws.
There was no need to ask. It was Yao Xuan, transformed into an Auspicious Beast.
"Wait, this is... Is this the legendary Auspicious Beast?"
Instead of fear, a trace of greed flashed deep in Yu Xiaogang's eyes as he gazed at the Soul Beast before him!
When he was young, Yu Xiaogang had used honeyed words and bluster to fool Bibi Dong into believing he was a well-read genius.
With Bibi Dong's approval, he had entered Spirit City's largest library and read countless notes and manuscripts left behind by those who came before him.
In an ancient scroll passed down for thousands of years, he had read about this Soul Beast.
—King of Soul Beasts, Emperor Auspicious Beast, peerlessly noble. Kill one, and it would always drop a Spirit Bone, no matter its cultivation!
A Spirit Bone!
At the thought, Yu Xiaogang's greed was instantly stirred.
Even the lowest-grade, hundred-year Spirit Bone was an incredibly precious treasure in the Soul Master World!
Even among the Upper Three Sects, as ancient as the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Sect, only the most outstanding members of the younger generation were awarded Spirit Bones!
And to Yu Xiaogang, a Spirit Bone held special significance.
His talent was utterly pathetic, and his Innate Soul Power was a mere half-level.
Though Yu Xiaogang had trained hard and consumed many rare treasures that could improve his aptitude while in the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Sect, he had cultivated for decades, and was now nearly fifty.
Yet his cultivation had remained stuck at level twenty-nine, unable to break through the threshold of level thirty!
By ordinary means, he would likely never become a Soul Elder in his entire life.
But if he could obtain a Spirit Bone—even the lowest-grade one—his cultivation would be forcibly raised to some extent after he fused with it.
Then he might be able to use the Spirit Bone's power to break through his limits and become a Soul Elder!

At the thought, excitement gleamed in Yu Xiaogang's eyes!
Meeting an Auspicious Beast was an incredible stroke of fortune!
What was more, judging by its size, the Auspicious Beast before him was in its infancy, and its cultivation clearly couldn't be very high.
He had a good chance of taking it down himself!
No, he had to kill it and seize its Spirit Bone!
"Let thunder roar from my fart! Earth-Shattering Luo Sanpao!"
Greed flashed in Yu Xiaogang's eyes. He focused his mind and channeled his Soul Power, making the first yellow Soul Ring behind him flare brightly as he chanted the Soul Spell and gave Luo Sanpao an order!
In the next instant, Luo Sanpao sucked in a huge breath, then aimed its rear at Yao Xuan and unleashed its attack!
Boom!
With a thunderous roar, Luo Sanpao unleashed its super thunderclap fart. A thick yellow cloud, accompanied by a terrifying stench, surged in every direction!
"Holy crap, what rotten luck!"
Seeing Luo Sanpao suddenly let one rip, Yao Xuan quickly pushed off with both legs and leaped away.
With his cultivation, Luo Sanpao's attack couldn't possibly hurt him.
But as someone who had been transmigrated, Yao Xuan certainly didn't want to get farted on.
Still, even though Yao Xuan dodged quickly, the foul cloud spread even faster.
He avoided the direct blast, but the stench still hit him and left him reeling.
"Damn you, Yu Xiaogang! How dare you fart on me? Unforgivable! This time, I'll devour your Martial Soul and make you pay an extra price, too!"
"And since you like farting so much, and made me smell Luo Sanpao's stink, once I take human form, I'll make you eat shit until you've had your fill!"
At that moment, Yao Xuan was furious. A faint trace of murderous intent flickered in his eyes as he fixed his gaze on Yu Xiaogang and sentenced him to death.
Without mercy, Yao Xuan pushed off with both legs and charged at Yu Xiaogang again!
Yu Xiaogang was dumbfounded at the sight!
How could this Auspicious Beast be so strong?
It had taken Luo Sanpao's fart head-on and looked completely unharmed.
Suddenly, Yu Xiaogang remembered something.
The ancient texts in Spirit Hall had recorded not only that an Auspicious Beast would always drop a Spirit Bone, but also that its strength could not be judged by ordinary standards.
Even with only a thousand years of cultivation, its strength was no weaker than that of a Ten-Thousand-Year Soul Beast.
But just now, immersed in the joy of thinking he could obtain a Spirit Bone, he had forgotten that.
And now, having attacked first, he had surely enraged the Auspicious Beast before him.
There was no way he could match it with his strength. What was he supposed to do?
Worse still, Luo Sanpao's energy had been completely spent in the fight just now.
And the white radishes he had brought along had scattered everywhere while he was fleeing.
Now he had no way to fight back at all!
Just as Yu Xiaogang was cursing his bad luck, the enraged Yao Xuan darted forward and pounced right in front of him.
The dragon claws gleamed with a cold light, as if they could pierce anything. Yu Xiaogang felt his lower body tighten, and a chill ran through him!
"Luo Sanpao, hurry and stop him!"
With no other choice, Yu Xiaogang ordered Luo Sanpao to stand in his way, hoping it would buy him time, while he fled in the opposite direction. ```
