Nurturing a Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Beast! Dugu Bo's Delight, a Hundred-Thousand-Year Medusa Empress Left Arm Bone!

Bibi Dong gazed at Qian Yu with stars in her eyes, admiration written all over her beautiful face.

"Brother Yu, you even thought of a method like this? You're incredible!

If word got out that someone could artificially nurture a hundred-thousand-year soul beast, the entire Soul Master World would go mad!"

Dugu Bo swallowed hard, trembling with excitement.

"A hundred thousand years... This old man never even dared to dream that one day he might lay hands on a hundred-thousand-year Soul Ring and Soul Bone!

My lord, even if I were to shatter every bone in my body, I could never repay your kindness!"

But after his initial delight, Dugu Bo seemed to remember something. His expression shifted, and he said with some concern,

"But... my lord.

A hundred-thousand-year soul beast is no ordinary creature. It's a terrifying existence powerful enough to rival a Super Douluo.

Once the Immortal Herb helps it break through, both its injuries and its strength will undergo a qualitative leap.

If it retaliates with everything it has before dying, will the three of us be able to suppress it?"

Qian Yu merely smiled faintly and said nothing.

Bibi Dong stepped forward and smiled at Dugu Bo.

"Senior Dugu, you've spent the past two days in seclusion at your residence, treating your poison. It's only natural that you haven't been keeping up with what's happening outside."

Dugu Bo froze and asked, puzzled,

"Saintess, has something major happened outside?"

Bibi Dong lifted her chin slightly, her eyes full of pride as she replied brightly,

"Just today, Brother Yu killed the head of the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan, Yu Yuanzhen, in a single blow at the Heaven Dou Great Soul Arena.

"And that's not all. Brother Yu also defeated Tang Tian, the Clear Sky Sect's leader, head-on."

"What?!"

Dugu Bo drew in a sharp breath, his eyes wide and his voice rising several octaves.

"He killed Yu Yuanzhen in one move?!

"Defeated Tang Tian?!

"They're both peak powerhouses who made their names long ago.

"One is Level 93, the other Level 95!"

Dugu Bo was utterly shocked. The news sounded like a tale spun from thin air.

But when he recalled how Qian Yu had grievously wounded the ninety-eight-thousand-year Medusa Empress with two casual swings of his sword, he had not the slightest doubt.

Dugu Bo took a deep breath, tamping down the tumult in his heart, then bowed his head respectfully once more.

"This old man had too narrow a view and underestimated my lord's heaven-defying methods.

"Not even those two sect leaders were a match for my lord in a single exchange.

"A mere soul beast that has just broken through to a hundred thousand years is indeed no more than an ant before my lord!"

Qian Yu smiled faintly and flipped his wrist. The Nine-Grade Purple Ganoderma appeared in his palm.

"Watch closely."

Qian Yu flicked a finger. The Nine-Grade Purple Ganoderma turned into a streak of purple light and shot straight into the dying Medusa Empress's mouth.

The Medusa Empress instinctively tried to resist.

But when it sensed the immense, pure medicinal power, a desire to survive flashed through its slit pupils.

It hurriedly gulped it down and frantically refined the herb.

"Hiss—"

As the medicinal power spread, the Medusa Empress's massive body began to tremble violently.

Brilliant purple light shimmered across its dark golden scales, and its previously feeble aura began to surge at an astonishing rate.

Dugu Bo stared fixedly at the giant serpent on the ground and nervously swallowed.

"What domineering medicinal power!

"Its cultivation is skyrocketing... ninety-nine thousand years!"

The breakthrough was clearly no easy feat. The Medusa Empress let out a painful hiss.

Its massive body writhed wildly on the ground, and blood seeped from its scales. It was clearly struggling.

But just as it was about to run out of strength, a terrifying pressure erupted!

A dazzling red halo, signifying a hundred thousand years, burst from its body and shot into the sky.

Bibi Dong's beautiful eyes lit up, and she exclaimed in delight,

"Brother Yu, it worked!

"It really broke through to a hundred thousand years!"

"Roar—!"

The instant the Medusa Empress broke through the hundred-thousand-year threshold, most of its fatal wounds healed.

It abruptly reared up, its blood-red slit pupils fixed on Qian Yu.

It opened its cavernous maw and lunged at him without hesitation, bringing with it a foul wind that reeked of destruction.

Dugu Bo was horrified and shouted,

"My lord, watch out!

"The beast is fighting back!"

Qian Yu stood where he was, without moving so much as half a step. He merely sneered.

"A beast is still a beast.

"If I can grant you the fortune of a hundred thousand years, I can just as easily cut you down with one sword."

Before his words had even faded, six radiant golden wings spread behind Qian Yu, and the Seraphim Martial Soul possessed him once more!

Holy golden flames soared into the sky, and the Seraphim Sword in Qian Yu's hand blazed with light.

Facing the Medusa Empress's gaping maw, he swung his sword without mercy.

"Boom—!"

The dazzling golden sword light tore through the Medusa Empress's defenses like a scythe through dry grass.

"Graaaah—!"

The Medusa Empress let out a scream as its body flew backward and crashed heavily into a pile of rubble.

A terrifying sword wound, deep enough to expose bone, cleaved through its vital point.

Blood gushed out like a waterfall. Its aura plummeted to rock bottom, and it was once again on the verge of death.

Seeing this, Dugu Bo could no longer hide his delight. He cried out in excitement,

"Thank you for granting me this opportunity, my lord!"

With that, Dugu Bo hurried forward.

He formed a venomous blade in his hand and plunged it without hesitation into the Medusa Empress's vital point, ending its life once and for all.

As the Medusa Empress's life force faded, a dazzling red hundred-thousand-year Soul Ring slowly rose into the air.

Dugu Bo took a deep breath and immediately sat cross-legged.

He closed his eyes and began to draw the Soul Ring toward himself with all his strength.

Seeing Dugu Bo begin absorbing it, Qian Yu walked forward.

With a gentle flick of the Seraphim Sword in his hand, he precisely cut open the Medusa Empress's corpse.

"Hum—"

A crystal-clear Soul Bone, glowing with a dark golden light, emerged from the corpse and landed securely in Qian Yu's hand.

"Oh?

"It's a left arm bone."

Qian Yu examined the Soul Bone in his hand, which radiated terrifying pressure, and a hint of surprise flashed in his eyes.

Qian Yu turned to Bibi Dong beside him and smiled as he handed her the Soul Bone.

"Dong'er, this hundred-thousand-year Medusa left arm bone is yours."

Bibi Dong froze for a moment. Looking at the hundred-thousand-year Soul Bone glowing red before her, she hesitated.

"Brother Yu, this is a hundred-thousand-year Soul Bone. It's far too precious. Aren't you going to absorb it yourself?"

Qian Yu smiled and shook his head, answering casually,

"I've already fused Soul Bones into both my arms. I can't use this left arm bone.

"Besides, the Medusa Empress's attributes are perfectly suited to your Death Spider Emperor Martial Soul.

"Take it. Don't stand on ceremony with me."

Warmth welled up in Bibi Dong's heart at his words.

Knowing Qian Yu's nature, she did not refuse again. She reached out and took the left arm bone, which glowed with an alluring red radiance.

"Thank you, Brother Yu. I'll accept it, then."

Qian Yu nodded slightly and reminded her,

"The Medusa Empress's most troublesome abilities are its petrifying talent and its poison.

"This hundred-thousand-year Soul Bone will most likely grant you powerful skills related to those two abilities.

"They'll greatly benefit your Death Spider Emperor Martial Soul.

"Dugu Bo is still absorbing the Soul Ring, so take the opportunity to fuse with it as well."
