Ethereal Sword Wings External Soul Bone, Theory Shattered?

Inside the hotel room.

Xiao Tian carefully took out the External Soul Bone rewarded by the system from his Storage Soul Tool.

It was shaped like transparent sword-like wings, with three pairs of feathered blades that looked exceptionally sharp.

System, block the surrounding aura for me later. Don't let the Soul Bone's aura leak out.

After giving the simple instruction, Xiao Tian sat cross-legged on the bed and began absorbing the Soul Bone.

Half an hour passed.

Xiao Tian opened his eyes, a sharp gleam flashing within them. This External Soul Bone really was a wonderful thing!

It had raised his soul power by two levels in one go. He was already level nineteen now.

The Ethereal Sword Wings External Soul Bone had currently granted Xiao Tian two Soul Bone skills.

Sword Wings Soaring allowed Xiao Tian to gain the ability to fly after activation, while also boosting his movement speed to a certain extent.

Ethereal Sword Qi: While flying, Xiao Tian could release sword qi to attack nearby enemies.

Strictly speaking, the first Soul Bone skill was innate. Since it was a wing-type Soul Bone to begin with, Xiao Tian did not consider it a true Soul Bone skill. Only the second one, Ethereal Sword Qi, counted.

Xiao Tian walked over to a mirror and spread the Ethereal Sword Wings on his back. The three pairs of nearly transparent wings possessed a striking aesthetic beauty. (Use Hai Bodong as a reference and change the color a little.)

Over the following year, Xiao Tian naturally did not let Tang San and Xiao Wu off, putting them through Devil Training together.

The results were quite remarkable. Tang San finally raised his soul power to level twenty and, with the help of the dean of Notting Academy, obtained his Second Soul Ring. Just like in the original story, it was a Ghost Vine.

However, his speed was still the slowest among the three. By then, Xiao Tian had long since reached level twenty-four, while Xiao Wu was at level twenty-two.

Xiao Tian had not gone to the Soul Hunting Forest to hunt for his Second Soul Ring. Instead, he directly absorbed the God-given Soul Ring provided by the system.

Fortunately, his Second Soul Skill happened to enhance attack power, perfectly matching his requirements for it.

Second Soul Skill, Sword Qi Surging. Once activated, powerful sword qi enveloped the blade, increasing attack power by two hundred percent.

Xiao Tian was extremely satisfied with this Soul Skill.

If he remembered correctly, Sword Dao Chen Xin's First Soul Skill, Longsword Out of Sheath, only increased attack power by thirty percent, whereas his increased it by two hundred percent.

But that was only natural. Chen Xin's First Soul Ring was a Hundred Year one, while Xiao Tian's Second Soul Ring was four thousand years old!

"Hey, Xiao Tian, what level are you actually at now? Why can't I beat you even now? I'm obviously the most talented one out of the three, aren't I?"

Little Xiao Wu's head was filled with enormous confusion.

"Tell me honestly, did you secretly raise your cultivation above level twenty?"

Xiao Wu wrapped both hands around Xiao Tian's arm and kept shaking it, trying to coax the truth out of him through acting cute.

After two years together, their relationship had grown increasingly close.

It was only because Tang San was not around right now. Otherwise, he would probably have ground his back teeth to pieces.

Feeling the soft touch against his arm, Xiao Tian's old face reddened as he sighed inwardly. Xiao Wu hadn't eaten all that papaya and drunk all that milk for nothing over the past two years!

Xiao Tian rather felt as though his daughter had finally grown up—hehe.

Seeing the faint blush on Xiao Tian's face, Xiao Wu gave a sly smile, thinking that she did have a little charm after all.

"Xiao Tian, your—"

"Xiao Wu, why don't you take a look at your face right now? It's as red as an apple."

Before Xiao Wu could finish, Xiao Tian directly turned the tables on her.

"Huh? No way!"

Xiao Wu ground her little silver teeth.

"Are you going to tell me or not?!"

Seeing Xiao Wu on the verge of breaking down, Xiao Tian smiled faintly. After laying the groundwork for two years, he felt that it was about time to tell her. This was the perfect opportunity.

"Mm, you guessed right. My Soul Power Level has indeed reached level twenty, and it's a little higher than yours—level twenty-four already."

Xiao Wu fell silent.

Xiao Wu stared wide-eyed.

Xiao Wu spoke!

"Xiao Tian, you really didn't lie to me? Isn't your strength improving way too fast? You're advancing faster than Tang San and me, even though we have Innate Full Soul Power."

Xiao Wu's face was full of shock. Moreover, she had never seen Xiao Tian use a Soul Skill before, or she would not have remained so curious all this time.

Xiao Tian said calmly, "That's right, my Innate Soul Power is inferior to yours, but do you remember what I told you before?"

Xiao Wu: ???

What had he said? Why did she not remember it at all?

"Ah, that hurt!"

Xiao Wu held her head, unable to understand why Xiao Tian had flicked her forehead.

"You don't remember at all? I told you before—I'm taking a different path to increase my soul power."

Only then did Xiao Wu suddenly understand. "You mean you accelerated the growth of your Soul Power by constantly tempering your Sword Intent? I thought you were just fooling me. I didn't expect it to be true."

Xiao Wu found it incredible. It was the first time she had heard that Soul Power could be increased this way.

Still, she was not all that surprised. It was only to be expected.

No wonder Xiao Tian was either practicing swordsmanship every day or on his way to practice it. He even slept with his sword in his arms!

She had been completely baffled at the time, but now she understood. Everything made sense!

The next moment, two purple Soul Rings flickered around Xiao Tian's body.

He had no intention of concealing the colors of his Soul Rings. Perhaps this would further spur Tang San's desire to strive harder. The faster Tang San improved, the more excited he became. Tang San was an experience farm, after all.

Once he reached level thirty, he could reap another harvest.

Xiao Tian's guess from a year ago had been correct. After both Tang San and Xiao Wu broke through to level twenty, he had eagerly gone to spar with them. Just as he expected, it triggered a Critical Reward!

He obtained another two God-given Soul Rings, which was why he could afford to use a God-given one directly for his second Soul Ring. He still had more anyway!

At that moment, Tang San happened to walk over, intending to call the two of them to dinner. Instead, he saw the scene before him.

He walked over with a shocked and grave expression.

"Xiao Tian, you... what's going on with your Soul Rings?"

Tang San felt his head buzzing.

Why were both Xiao Tian's first and second Soul Rings thousand-year Soul Rings?

According to the Soul Ring limit theory taught by Grandmaster, the first ring should be around four hundred years, while the second should be around eight hundred years. Yet Xiao Tian's Soul Rings had directly shattered that theory!

That was right, Xiao Tian had done it deliberately. With the system's reminder, he had long known that Tang San was approaching them.

Hehe.

Xiao Tian said calmly, "Let's go to Grandmaster's office. It can't be explained in just a sentence or two. Haven't you two been curious about my strength these past two years? I'll explain everything to you at once now."
