External Soul Bone, Thunder Wings

"Teacher, my second soul skill is called Mysterious Thunder Transformation," Lin Fan said, and two purple soul rings appeared.

The deeper purple soul ring flashed, and Lin Fan's aura suddenly changed.

"Second Soul Ring—Mysterious Thunder Transformation."

"It increases all attributes by 50%, and for every level of soul power gained, it increases by 1%, up to a maximum of 100%. It also greatly enhances resistance to lightning-element attacks, lasting for one hour."

Qian Xunji was stunned, staring dumbfounded at the calm Lin Fan.

An increase in all attributes! That was a comprehensive boost to attack, strength, speed, soul power, and more!

His disciple's first soul skill enhanced all released soul skills.

But this second soul skill could enhance everything, not just soul skills! It could even enhance himself!

Amazing! Too amazing!

As a mere two-ring Soul Grand Master, he possessed such a powerful soul skill. Even some Soul Ancestors, Qian Xunji felt, were no match for his disciple.

"Teacher," Lin Fan chuckled, looking at Qian Xunji's shocked expression.

Snapping back to reality, Qian Xunji laughed heartily, "Xiao Fan, the future of the Martial Soul Hall rests on you!"

Lin Fan was taken aback for a moment, then smiled, "Teacher, you are still so young. I believe the future of the Martial Soul Hall still depends on you."

"No!" Qian Xunji asserted, "I know my own talent. At most, I can manage the Martial Soul Hall until you grow up."

"But you are different. Not only do you have Innate Full Soul Power, but you also have Twin Martial Souls. Your first soul ring is already a thousand years old, and your second soul ring has reached over five thousand years."

"I believe your third soul ring might be able to absorb a ten-thousand-year soul ring, but before that, there are many things to prepare."

"With your cultivation speed, you might reach level thirty before the Continental Advanced Soul Master Academy Elite Tournament. With your strength, you can completely represent the Martial Soul Academy."

"How about it, are you interested in participating?"

Qian Xunji looked at Lin Fan with anticipation, his eyes filled with relief.

"Continental Advanced Soul Master Academy Elite Tournament!" Lin Fan exclaimed, surprised. He was familiar with this event.

The Continental Advanced Soul Master Academy Elite Tournament was akin to the World College Tournament in Versatile Mage.

Although Lin Fan preferred the latter, he now understood what was most important.

Emotional Value!

That's right, Emotional Value!

The Continental Advanced Soul Master Elite Tournament was a grand event for the entire continent! How many people would be watching?

Even if not tens of millions, at least a million, right?

If each person provided just 1 point of Emotional Value, that would be a million Emotional Value.

"Teacher, I want to participate!"

Qian Xunji, thinking Lin Fan didn't understand the Continental Advanced Soul Master Elite Tournament, was about to explain when Lin Fan spoke, his tone full of certainty.

"Good!" Qian Xunji smiled. "When we get back, you will cultivate diligently, and I will ensure you join the Martial Soul Academy team."

Lin Fan nodded and then said, "Teacher, let's hurry back."

"Let's go," Qian Xunji replied.

As they were about to leave, Lin Fan couldn't help but glance at the spot where the Mystic Thunder Dragon had died.

It was better not to look, but as Lin Fan turned his head, he saw the corpse of the dead Mystic Thunder Dragon emitting a faint, mysterious purple light.

"Soul Bone!" Lin Fan exclaimed.

Hearing the words "Soul Bone," Qian Xunji stopped in his tracks. Following Lin Fan's gaze, he saw the corpse of the Mystic Thunder Dragon emitting a faint, mysterious purple light.

"It seems to be a pair of wing-type soul bones," Lin Fan murmured, then looked at Qian Xunji beside him. "Teacher, this should be an External Soul Bone."

Qian Xunji stood there, stunned. External Soul Bone! What was that! That was a treasure second only to hundred-thousand-year soul rings and soul bones!

Unlike the soul bones for the six major parts of a soul master's body, External Soul Bones were growth-type soul bones that could grow with the user.

"Xiao Fan, quickly, absorb it!" Qian Xunji urged, his face beaming with joy!

Lin Fan nodded heavily, suppressing his inner ecstasy, and carefully picked up the Mystic Thunder Dragon Wing External Soul Bone.

The moment the soul bone touched his hand, a violent yet gentle lightning power surged into his body from his palm, quietly merging with the lightning-element soul power of his second soul ring and his lightning-element martial soul, without any rejection.

He sat down cross-legged, placed the External Soul Bone above his dantian, closed his eyes, and circulated the soul power within him, guiding the power from the soul bone to slowly permeate his limbs and bones according to the method soul masters used to absorb soul bones.

Instantly, Lin Fan was enveloped in mysterious purple lightning, and a phantom image of a pair of miniature thunder dragon wings faintly appeared behind him.

As the wings unfurled, thunder rumbled, winds surged, and violent lightning power continuously washed over his meridians and physical body.

His robust physique, tempered by the Demon Element and Lightning Element martial souls, perfectly integrated with the soul bone's power, with every inch of his skin and every bone absorbing its strength.

Qian Xunji stood guard, his eyes fixed on Lin Fan, constantly vigilant of their surroundings, but inwardly overjoyed.

Innate Full Soul Power, Twin Martial Souls, a thousand-year first soul ring, a five-thousand-year second soul ring, and now, a rare and precious wing-type External Soul Bone. His disciple, Lin Fan, was truly a treasure bestowed upon the Martial Soul Hall by heaven!

Let alone being a once-in-a-millennium occurrence for the Martial Soul Hall, even in the entire ten-thousand-year history of the Douluo Continent, another genius as heaven-defying as him could not be found!

He could even foresee that once Lin Fan fully matured, let alone Soul Douluo or Titled Douluo, even breaking through the limits of a Titled Douluo would be no difficult task!

The absorption process went far more smoothly than imagined; the Mystic Thunder Dragon Wings External Soul Bone possessed an extremely high compatibility with Lin Fan's lightning-attribute soul power and lightning-element martial soul.

Coupled with his physical strength, which far exceeded that of an ordinary person, the power within the soul bone was completely absorbed in less than an hour.

BOOM!

Lin Fan's aura surged violently, and a pair of solid, deep-purple thunder dragon wings suddenly unfurled from his back. Lightning flowed across the wings, every feather clearly visible; with a gentle flap, gale winds howled and lightning hissed.

Lin Fan instantly soared into the air, hovering mid-flight with a speed that far surpassed the soul skills of ordinary soul masters.

"It's done!"

A sharp glint flashed in Lin Fan's eyes, and as he felt the immense power emanating from the wings on his back, he could hardly contain his excitement.

But he couldn't even look cool for three seconds before Lin Fan felt the wings on his back spiral out of control, flapping erratically.

With a cry of "Ah!", Lin Fan slammed into the canyon wall, though fortunately, his body was robust enough to withstand it.

Seeing this, Qian Xunji chuckled softly and flew to Lin Fan's side, "External Soul Bones are not as easy to control as soul bones in other slots; with diligent practice, you will eventually be able to command them like your own arms."

Lin Fan brushed the dust off his body and nodded, "Teacher, my soul power has reached level 27."

Hearing this, Qian Xunji nodded with a smile; he had already sensed it the moment Lin Fan finished absorbing the bone and shot into the sky.

"How is the boost this pair of Thunder Wings provides you?"

Qian Xunji asked curiously, as even he was seeing an External Soul Bone for the first time.

"It provides a 100% boost to all attributes, and these Thunder Wings offer incredible speed and strong offensive capabilities."

"Once they grow further, my speed will not be slower than flying-type soul beasts of the same level," Lin Fan said with a smile.

His aerial combat ability had originally been slightly inferior, but now with these Thunder Wings, he could also take to the skies to fight!

"Good!" Qian Xunji clapped in approval, "Let's head back for now; you must incorporate these Thunder Wings into your future cultivation."

"I know, Teacher!" Lin Fan smiled.
