The Blue Silver Emperor's Hidden Stone Chamber, the Blue Silver Emperor Right Leg Bone, and the Clear Sky Sect Inherited Soul Bone
Ye Shuyuan held a glowing gemstone in his hand, illuminating the damp cave, which stood about three meters high and two meters wide.
The three of them pressed forward, entering the stone chamber at the deepest part of the cave, where a small mound of earth sat in the center, topped with a single Blue Silver Grass that looked entirely different from the others.
The leaves of this particular Blue Silver Grass were threaded with golden veins.
Upon entering the chamber, Dugu Bo took the lead in surveying the area, only to find that aside from the Blue Silver Grass on the mound, the room was completely empty.
"There are no other paths here. Is the Blue Silver Emperor Right Leg Bone really in this place?"
Ye Qingzhou entered the chamber, casting a glance around the empty, sunless environment before chuckling with a teasing tone:
"It is absolutely certain. Old Poison, do you dare to question a God King?"
At these words, Dugu Bo fell silent and shook his head.
Question a God King? Even if he were given a thousand, ten thousand, or ten million times his current courage, he would never dare to do such a thing.
Unless, of course, he had a death wish.
As soon as he entered the chamber, Ye Shuyuan stepped forward to examine the most unique Blue Silver Grass: "Why is there a Blue Silver Grass here?"
The plant stood out like a crane in a flock of chickens, completely isolated from the rest of the world.
He approached the plant, crouched down, and began to carefully observe every golden thread on its surface.
When Ye Shuyuan's calloused hands touched the Blue Silver Grass, it clearly recoiled, its leaves pulling back as if possessed by a will of its own.
"How curious." This reaction piqued Ye Shuyuan's curiosity. "I truly want to know which blind fool planted you here; you belong in the Blue Silver Forest."
Seeing Ye Shuyuan preoccupied with the plant, Dugu Bo said irritably: "Old Ye, we are here to search for the Blue Silver Emperor Right Leg Bone, not to study the local flora."
Ye Shuyuan stood up and glanced around, saying: "Do not be impatient. The God of Life would not deceive us; there must be a mechanism hidden here."
Ye Qingzhou's eyes scanned every corner of the stone chamber.
He remembered that in the original story, Tang Hao had triggered some sort of mechanism.
A box containing the Blue Silver Emperor Right Leg Bone and the Clear Sky Sect Inherited Soul Bone had fallen from the ceiling of the chamber.
But where was the trigger?
As he pondered, Ye Qingzhou walked over to the side wall and came to a stop.
He leaned gently against the wall, and as his shoulder touched what felt like a switch, a dark object dropped from the ceiling of the chamber and landed on the ground.
The sound of the object hitting the floor drew the attention of Ye Shuyuan and Dugu Bo.
The two stopped what they were doing and hurried over to where the object had fallen.
Ye Qingzhou, Ye Shuyuan, and Dugu Bo gathered around the small black box, forming a triangle.
Dugu Bo's gaze remained fixed on the small black box as he asked: "Little Monster, what did you just do?"
Ye Qingzhou shook his head in response: "I have no idea. I must have triggered some kind of switch."
"Let me open it." Ye Shuyuan stepped forward, picked up the wooden box, and pried it open.
The very moment it opened, Ye Qingzhou, Ye Shuyuan, and Dugu Bo were struck by two overbearing auras and one gentle, soothing presence.
Their eyes locked onto the three soul bones inside the box: two right leg bones and one left leg bone.
The one emitting the gentle aura was the right leg bone in the center.
The soul bone in the middle was made of a crystal-clear blue-gold material, with what looked like starlight flickering deep within it.
Both the age and the quality of this bone far exceeded the two pieces on either side.
"Three soul bones!" Dugu Bo and Ye Shuyuan exclaimed.
Neither of them had expected that this small stone chamber would hide three soul bones.
Even though the bones on the left and right were not complete, their age and quality were far from low, with their ages reaching well into the ten-thousand-year range.
Ye Qingzhou spoke slowly, voicing his hypothesis: "If I am not mistaken, these three soul bones all belonged to Tang Hao."
"That is highly likely." Ye Shuyuan agreed with Ye Qingzhou's assessment.
For a normal soul master, it is difficult to encounter even a single soul bone in a lifetime, let alone three that are over ten thousand years old—with one being a hundred-thousand-year bone.
Only someone like Tang Hao could have achieved such a feat in this small Holy Soul Village.
Based on his observation, the one in the center must be the Blue Silver Emperor Right Leg Bone; only that bone carried the aura of life, while the other two were filled with ferocity.
Dugu Bo was deeply shocked that a Title Douluo could possess three ten-thousand-year soul bones without absorbing them.
"I never imagined that scoundrel Tang Hao would possess three high-quality soul bones. To leave them here instead of absorbing them is a complete waste of heaven's gifts."
Ye Qingzhou looked at Ye Shuyuan and Dugu Bo, the three of them exchanging a meaningful glance.
He reached out and took the Blue Silver Emperor Right Leg Bone from the center of the wooden box.
In the original story, Tang San was able to execute the techniques Wildfire Cannot Burn Out and Spring Breeze Brings Life Anew precisely because of this Blue Silver Emperor Right Leg Bone.
"Grandfather, Old Poison, please guard me." Looking at the Blue Silver Emperor Right Leg Bone, which was perfectly compatible with his own martial soul, Ye Qingzhou could no longer suppress the excitement in his heart.
Ye Shuyuan said softly: "This is not the first time the two of us have done this for you, but you had best be quick."
Previously, Tang Hao had escaped death due to the intervention of other gods, and he was worried that Tang Hao might have gained the power of another deity and returned for revenge.
"Mn." Ye Qingzhou nodded and sat cross-legged, intending to absorb this Hundred Thousand Year Soul Bone.
Just as he prepared to absorb it, the Blue Silver Grass on the small mound stopped him.
It seemed as though it did not want Ye Qingzhou to absorb it.
Faced with the refusal of the Blue Silver Emperor Ah Yin, Ye Qingzhou did not care in the slightest, while Ye Shuyuan and Dugu Bo directly unleashed the pressure of Title Douluo to force back the obstructing Blue Silver Grass.
Looking at the Blue Silver Grass that possessed a faint consciousness, Dugu Bo only then realized belatedly: "This Blue Silver Grass is truly no ordinary Blue Silver Grass."
Ye Shuyuan looked at the Blue Silver Grass on the small mound, his eyes reflecting a guess.
Ignoring the two men and the one plant, Ye Qingzhou directly initiated the fusion with the Blue Silver Emperor Right Leg Bone.
One hour later.
Because both parties possessed the life elements inherent to the living creatures of the natural world, and Ye Qingzhou's life elements were even hundreds of times stronger than those of a mere blade of grass, the fusion process was exceptionally smooth.
"Very good. Not only has my Soul Power Level increased by three levels, but I have also mastered the two great soul bone skills: Wildfire Cannot Burn Out, Spring Breeze Brings Life Anew, and Flight."
A soul bone can not only increase a soul master's Soul Power Level upon fusion, much like a soul ring, but it also inherently comes with two soul bone skills.
Having absorbed the Hundred Thousand Year Blue Silver Emperor Soul Bone, Ye Qingzhou's Soul Power Level had now risen from level forty-one to level forty-four.
The voice of the God of Life appeared in his mind.
