Soul Bones Appear; The Little Guy Can't Absorb Them

Ma Xiaotao muttered in a very small voice.

She was actually right.

The soul beasts sheltered by the core area were at least those that obeyed Di Tian's orders.

But this Azure Blood Dragon Beast, relying on the dragon bloodline within its body, paid no heed to the guys in the core area, and even looked down on Fierce Beasts, swallowing every soul beast that passed through its territory.

It didn't even spare some young ones.

If Di Tian hadn't seen the trace of dragon bloodline within it, he would have taught this fellow a lesson long ago.

Now that this old fellow was being besieged by humans, those soul beasts were naturally watching the fun.

Di Tian glanced at the periphery, said nothing, and just waited quietly.

This battle clearly wouldn't end so quickly.

Even if Xuan Zi and Yan Shaozhe attacked the Azure Blood Dragon Beast together, this battle wouldn't end so quickly, after all, the Azure Blood Dragon Beast was a turtle-type soul beast, extremely strong in defense.

The two could only cooperate and wear it down with the Bright Phoenix's burns.

The entire battle lasted for two days and three nights.

Finally, the Azure Blood Dragon Beast, which had shrunk into its shell, was severely injured. If no one delivered the final blow, this Azure Blood Dragon Beast would likely take several days to die completely.

Xuan Zi and Yan Shaozhe's Soul Power was also completely depleted.

Xuan Zi was even injured.

He didn't care about this minor injury at all, he just looked at Ma Xiaotao in the distance, snorted lightly, and called Ma Xiaotao back via voice transmission, speaking to Lu Heqiu with annoyance.

"The soul beast you chose!"

"I'd like to see how you're going to get a Soul Ring!"

"Hundred-Thousand-Year, you actually dared to choose a Hundred-Thousand-Year soul beast, I'll give you a knife and you won't even know how to harvest its life, tell me how you're going to absorb it!"

Xuan Zi showed no mercy when he spoke. Even though he was facing a child, his tone was still extremely harsh. He truly didn't believe how this little fellow was going to absorb it.

Yan Shaozhe stood by and said nothing.

He also wanted to see what Lu Heqiu would do.

The first step to hunt for a Soul Ring was to kill the soul beast with one's own hands. Only Soul Masters who ended the soul beast's life were worthy of absorbing a Soul Ring. But now, this little fellow didn't even have a soul skill, so hunting for a Soul Ring was simply a fantasy.

Give him a knife?

What a joke!

Besides the renowned carving knives.

What knife could pierce into this Azure Blood Dragon Beast's body, let alone end its life.

Facing Xuan Lao's roar, Lu Heqiu merely pointed below, signaling Ma Xiaotao to take him down. Ma Xiaotao, holding Lu Heqiu, felt some resentment towards Xuan Lao at this moment.

He's a child, are you an old man acting like a child too?

Shouting like that...

Lu Heqiu was carried by Ma Xiaotao and landed in front of the Azure Blood Dragon Beast. The Azure Blood Dragon Beast was already on its last breath, with multiple wounds on its body, half of its head exposed, and it didn't even have the strength to retract completely.

There were several wounds on its head, including burns from Yan Shaozhe's Bright Phoenix and lacerations from Xuan Lao's Godly Taotie Bull.

Ma Xiaotao took out a short knife from her Soul Tool and handed it to Lu Heqiu, indicating that Lu Heqiu should try from the wound of the Azure Blood Dragon Beast first. If he couldn't even pierce the wound, then there was probably no chance.

Looking at the short knife Ma Xiaotao handed over, Lu Heqiu didn't take it. Instead, he stumbled to the front of the Azure Blood Dragon Beast.

He took a simple look.

A small hand that looked harmless directly smashed towards the wound!

The wound, already seeping with emerald blood, was directly dented by Lu Heqiu's punch! The Azure Blood Dragon Beast's originally closed eyes twitched in pain.

Lu Heqiu didn't stop. He switched hands and smashed towards the Azure Blood Dragon Beast's wound again.

The two small hands alternated, so fast that they even created afterimages.

Fists whistled through the air, making the Azure Blood Dragon Beast tremble.

Seeing this, Xuan Lao's mouth twitched slightly. He habitually treated this little fellow as a normal person, but he didn't expect that this guy was not a normal person at all!

Even before the seal was broken and his Martial Soul awakened, his strength already suppressed Dai Yueheng.

Now that the seal had leaked and his Martial Soul had awakened, could this kid be simple!?

Yan Shaozhe's expression on the side relaxed a lot. Xuan Lao was probably going to be slapped in the face this time. The knife indeed couldn't get in, and forcing it in might even cause the blade to break, but this little guy was actually punching the Azure Blood Dragon Beast to death!

What else could be said?!

A blood-colored Soul Ring appeared on the Azure Blood Dragon Beast, symbolizing the Azure Blood Dragon Beast, which had reigned supreme in the Star Dou Great Forest for 120,000 years, had now completely perished.

Lu Heqiu's hands were now emerald green, clearly stained with the Azure Blood Dragon Beast's blood all over his arms, but he didn't care at all. Instead, he licked his hands. This was blood with Bi An's bloodline!

It was a great tonic for anyone!

Lu Heqiu wolfed down a few mouthfuls, wanting to continue drinking, but was picked up again by Xuan Lao.

"Kid, what are you doing?"

"Soul Rings have a time limit after a Soul Beast dies."

"If you don't absorb the Soul Ring quickly, it'll dissipate!"

Upon hearing this, Lu Heqiu looked at Xuan Zi with disdain. He pointed at the Soul Beast's body. Xuan Zi didn't understand, but Ma Xiaotao, who was very familiar with Lu Heqiu, understood his meaning.

"Xuan Zi."

"The little guy means..."

"Let's dig out the Soul Bone first?"

Lu Heqiu nodded repeatedly, making Xuan Zi even more confused. Although Soul Rings and Soul Bones from the same Soul Beast were most effective when absorbed by one person, no one ever absorbed a Soul Bone before a Soul Ring!

Soul Rings dissipated, but Soul Bones didn't!

Yan Shaozhe, after Ma Xiaotao's translation, also understood Lu Heqiu's meaning.

"Xuan Zi."

"The little guy wants to strengthen his physique through the Soul Bone first, and then absorb the Soul Ring. This way, it'll be safer for him."

As soon as Yan Shaozhe finished speaking, Xuan Zi waved his hand, his words clearly more indignant.

"Nonsense!"

"Can you absorb a Soul Bone within an hour!?"

"Absorbing the Soul Bone means he'll have to give up this Soul Ring!"

Yan Shaozhe, however, had a relaxed smile on his face.

"If he can't, then let him give it up."

"Anyway, the danger of absorbing a Soul Bone is much less than absorbing a Soul Ring. If there's danger, as long as it's a limb Soul Bone, the little guy will at most lose a limb."

"Isn't that better than exploding and dying on the spot?"

As Yan Shaozhe spoke, he immediately used a Soul Skill to dismember the Azure Blood Dragon Beast's body, starting to search for the Soul Bone it produced. He didn't even waste the blood, instead collecting it in several oversized glass bottles, preparing to take it back to the academy.

As the light fell.

Yan Shaozhe's expression turned grim again.

"It seems even this Soul Bone..."

"The little guy can't absorb it either!"
