Pack Up and Flee, Ah Yin Wants It Too! In a Few Years, Another 100,000-Year Spirit Ring and Spirit Bone!

Yet it was completely different from ordinary Blue Silver Grass.

Its leaves were broad and slender, crystalline and translucent in a deep azure hue, with golden veins faintly visible upon them, pulsing as if they were blood vessels.

In this dark and damp cave, it emitted a faint blue halo, swaying gently like a beauty standing aloof from the world.

"Such powerful vitality..."

Dugu Yan could not help but exclaim; she could feel the extremely pure life energy contained within this plant.

"Hmph, that is only natural."

Yu Nan's voice rang out in Dugu Yan's mind, carrying a hint of mockery and indifference:

"This is no ordinary grass; it is the rebirth of a seed left behind after a Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Beast, the Blue Silver Emperor, sacrificed herself following her cultivation into human form."

"In other words, this is Tang Hao's wife and Tang San's own mother—Ah Yin."

"What?!"

Dugu Yan was horrified, and as she looked at the swaying Blue Silver Grass, her expression instantly turned peculiar.

Tang San's... mother?

A blade of grass?

Although there were many legends in the soul master world about soul beasts taking human form, seeing it with her own eyes left her feeling incredibly shocked.

"Forget about that grass; now is not the time to touch her."

Yu Nan urged:

"Keep moving inside. There is a hidden compartment above the stone wall; the item is right there."

Dugu Bo could not be bothered to study the strange plant any longer; following Yu Nan's guidance, he walked quickly to the stone wall at the depths of the cave.

He fumbled along the stone wall for a moment before quickly discovering a slightly protruding rock.

"Found it!"

A sharp light erupted in Dugu Bo's eyes as he channeled his soul power and pressed down hard on the rock.

Click, click, click...

A sound of gears turning echoed out.

The stone wall slowly split open, revealing a square hidden compartment.

Inside the compartment lay a dark, leaden box.

Dugu Bo's hands trembled as he carefully lifted the lead box out.

The box was extremely heavy, clearly forged from special lead-iron specifically designed to isolate aura.

"Open it."

Even Yu Nan's voice carried a hint of anticipation.

Dugu Bo took a deep breath, hooked his fingers under the lid, and yanked it open!

Hum—!

In an instant, a rich, intense blue-gold light erupted from the box, illuminating the entire dim cave in a flash!

The light was soft yet profound, filled with a boundless, ceaseless vitality.

At the center of this radiance lay a crystalline right leg bone.

It was a perfect blue-gold throughout, as if carved from the purest crystal, with liquid seemingly flowing inside the bone, emitting a mesmerizing energy fluctuation.

The Hundred-Thousand-Year Blue Silver Emperor Right Leg Bone!

"It really is... a Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Bone!!"

Dugu Bo's voice trembled, and the greed in his eyes could no longer be concealed.

He could clearly feel that merely by bathing in the light emitted by this soul bone, the meridians in his body, which had been eroded by toxins for years, felt a long-lost sense of relief!

A top-tier treasure!

An absolute top-tier treasure!

"Quick! Yan-yan!"

Dugu Bo turned his head sharply toward Dugu Yan and said urgently:

"Delays lead to trouble! Absorb it right here, right now!"

"As long as you absorb this soul bone, even if Tang Hao returns, we will have the power to fight... no, the power to escape!"

"You fool!"

Yu Nan's voice, filled with exasperation, exploded in Dugu Bo's mind once more like a thunderclap, shaking his spirit.

"Absorb it here? Are you tired of living?"

"The energy fluctuations generated by absorbing a Hundred Thousand Year Soul Bone are enough to flip this entire mountain! Furthermore, the process is extremely lengthy—taking at least several hours, or even days."

"Do you think Tang Hao is a corpse? With such a massive disturbance, he could sense it from dozens of miles away! Do you want Yan Yan to be smashed into a pulp by a hammer at the most critical moment of her absorption?"

This barrage of questions hit like basins of ice water, instantly extinguishing the heat in Dugu Bo's heart. He shuddered violently, looking at the soul bone radiating dazzling light in his hands, his back instantly soaked in cold sweat.

That's right! He really was a senile old fool! Blinded by such a precious treasure, he had actually committed such a low-level mistake! This was Tang Hao's lair; absorbing his soul bone here was like performing a striptease right under his nose—it was suicide!

"Se... Senior is right to reprimand me!" Dugu Bo's old face flushed red, and he coughed awkwardly twice, scrambling to slam the lead box lid shut.

Click.

That intoxicating blue-gold light vanished instantly, and the cave returned to its dim state.

"Let's go! Yan Yan, we must leave here first and find an absolutely safe place to absorb it!" Dugu Bo grabbed Dugu Yan and turned to bolt out of the cave. Since the item was in hand, it was time to make a run for it!

"Slow down." Just as Dugu Bo was about to step out of the cave, Yu Nan's unhurried voice rang out again. Dugu Bo stumbled, nearly failing to brake, and asked with a bitter face, "Senior, what is it now? If we don't leave, what if that star of calamity returns..."

"Take that plant with you as well." Yu Nan said indifferently.

"Ah?" Dugu Bo froze, instinctively glancing back at the Blue Silver Emperor, which emitted a faint blue light in the darkness. "Take... take her for what?" Dugu Bo was confused. "Senior, although this is a Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Beast that has reincarnated, it is currently just a blade of grass with a bit of spiritual energy. It can't be eaten or used for alchemy; taking it is just a burden. If Tang Hao senses its aura and tracks us down..." In his view, the soul bone was the only hard currency; this plant had no practical value other than being Tang Hao's wife. It was nothing but a hot potato.

"Old Poison Freak, your vision is still too shallow." Yu Nan chuckled, his tone filled with the shrewdness of one who calculates everything. "Have you forgotten what kind of place the Ice and Fire Yin-Yang Well is?"

Dugu Bo was stunned. "It is a treasure basin, the holy land for all plant-type soul beasts in the world..." Halfway through his sentence, Dugu Bo's voice came to an abrupt halt. His emerald pupils dilated, as if he had thought of something truly incredible. "Se... Senior, do you mean..."

"The Ice and Fire Yin-Yang Well possesses a unique environment that can accelerate the growth rate of plants by a thousand or even ten thousand times." Yu Nan's voice was full of temptation, like a devil's whisper. "Although this Blue Silver Emperor has sacrificed herself, her essence remains, and her vitality is extremely tenacious."

"If you transplant her next to the Ice and Fire Yin-Yang Well and nourish her with the spiritual energy there..."

"It won't take a hundred thousand years."

"Perhaps in just a few years, or even less, she could regrow to the level of a hundred-thousand-year existence."

Speaking to this point, Yu Nan paused and added meaningfully, "At that time, it will be a freshly baked Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Ring, plus another... Hundred Thousand Year Soul Bone."
