Absorbing the Soul Bone, the Blue Silver Emperor's Soul

Notting Academy is on break.

Over the past six months, Li Ping'an has earned over a thousand Gold Soul Coin through his connections at the medical clinic.

However, these Gold Soul Coin are still not enough to purchase Whale Rubber.

But at the rate he is making money as a black-hearted doctor, it won't be long before he can afford to buy some Whale Rubber to try.

Li Ping'an went into the city and bought some gifts, preparing to take them back to his parents in this life, as well as Old Jack.

Meanwhile, Xiao Wu successfully persuaded Tang San, and they planned to take advantage of the break to head to the Star Dou Great Forest to hunt soul beasts.

Tang San realized the importance of having teammates and did not refuse Xiao Wu.

Moreover, he also wanted to go to the Star Dou Great Forest to broaden his horizons.

As for Yu Xiaogang, he brought Xiao Wu along due to instructions from Tang Hao.

Two days later, outside Holy Soul Village.

Following the large river near Holy Soul Village, Li Ping'an finally found the waterfall that stood a hundred meters tall.

This type of waterfall valley is extremely rare, so Li Ping'an's search went quite smoothly.

It is currently winter, and since the Heaven Dou Empire is in the north, the river is in its dry season.

The waterfall had very little water at this time, allowing Li Ping'an to see the scene behind it.

"Is that the cave?"

Li Ping'an noticed that behind the waterfall, a section of the stone looked deliberately stacked, unlike the naturally formed rocks nearby.

Having found his destination, Li Ping'an arrived at the base of the waterfall and prepared to climb up.

Li Ping'an has cultivated his Blue Silver Grass martial soul to the point where he can control it as easily as his own limbs.

His Blue Silver Grass martial soul is now more useful than a rope, functioning just like an extension of his own body.

Therefore, Li Ping'an climbed to the cave without much effort.

Li Ping'an moved a stone aside, and a musty, decaying odor drifted out from behind it.

"It really is here!" Li Ping'an let out a sigh of relief.

If he had found the wrong place, his efforts over the past two days would have been in vain, and the longer he dragged it out, the greater his risk would be.

Li Ping'an moved the stones away and waited for the air inside to circulate completely before crawling in.

Inside the cave, one section of the stone wall was clearly different from the rest; it appeared to be a stone door, though it was covered in thick dust.

"It seems Tang Hao hasn't been here in a long time!"

Li Ping'an searched for a while and finally found the switch for the stone door.

With a rumble, the stone door opened, revealing a pitch-black space inside where one could not even see their own fingers.

Li Ping'an used his Blue Silver Grass martial soul, and by the faint light of his soul power, he could clearly see the layout inside.

In the center of the secret chamber was a small mound of dirt with a tiny blade of grass growing on it.

In such a dark environment, that Blue Silver Grass was surprisingly still alive.

Anyone with a brain would know that this Blue Silver Grass was no ordinary plant.

Li Ping'an looked up toward the top of the secret chamber and, as expected, saw an extremely long lead box.

"Is this where the soul bone is?"

Li Ping'an used his Blue Silver Grass to pull the soul bone down, and seeing no traps, he stepped into the secret chamber.

He opened the heavy box to find a right leg bone, deep blue and inlaid with gold, wrapped in vine-like patterns, lying quietly inside.

This right leg bone carried the aura of an emperor of flora, and Li Ping'an felt as if his own martial soul was being nourished.

"Absorb it directly to avoid any complications!"

Li Ping'an did not take the soul bone away; he prepared to absorb it right there!

He pressed the soul bone against his right leg and channeled his soul power.

As soon as the soul bone made contact with Li Ping'an's soul power, it slowly began to sink into his right leg.

Absorbing a soul bone does not carry the same risks as absorbing a soul ring.

Before long, Li Ping'an had completely absorbed the soul bone, and a wave of soul power emanated from his body.

That was the bonus provided by the soul bone; his soul power had broken through from level fifteen to level seventeen.

"And this is just a soul bone. If it were a hundred-thousand-year soul ring, my soul power might have broken through to level twenty directly!"

The Blue Silver Emperor soul bone provided Li Ping'an with two skills.

One is 'Wildfire cannot destroy it; the spring breeze brings it back to life,' which possesses immense healing capabilities.

It can be said that as long as he is not dead and still has soul power, he can recover from injuries very quickly.

"This soul bone also seems to be able to enhance my first soul skill?" Li Ping'an sensed.

The Hundred Thousand Year Soul Bone grants two soul skills, the other being flight.

"It seems I don't need to climb down anymore; I can just fly straight down!"

Having arrived in a world of extraordinary power, who wouldn't want to soar through the skies or tunnel through the earth?

This Blue Silver Emperor soul bone has, in a roundabout way, helped Li Ping'an achieve this goal.

"However, this soul skill cannot be used recklessly, or others might realize I possess a soul bone!"

"Especially Tang Hao; he is knowledgeable and would certainly detect the anomaly!"

After all, no matter how much one cultivates a Blue Silver Grass martial soul, they shouldn't be able to fly, right?

"Time to go!" Li Ping'an thought to himself.

Just then, Li Ping'an suddenly noticed the Blue Silver Grass in the center of the secret chamber gently swaying its leaves.

The Blue Silver Grass moved without any wind, giving Li Ping'an a fright.

Tang San, damn it, has he already woken up?

If so, hasn't my theft of the soul bone been exposed? Li Ping'an thought.

What should I do?

Li Ping'an stepped forward and gripped the Blue Silver Grass.

Sure enough, the leaves of this Blue Silver Grass suddenly erupted with blue light.

Golden patterns emerged on its leaves, making it look vastly different from the Blue Silver Grass outside.

The leaves of the Blue Silver Emperor actually wrapped around Li Ping'an's arm.

"This!"

Li Ping'an was startled, nearly throwing a punch using Xiao Wu's Self-Created Soul Skill, 'Rabbit Fist'.

"Save me, take me out of here!"

A gentle female voice pierced into Li Ping'an's mind.

"Who are you?" Li Ping'an asked, despite knowing the answer.

The voice sounded again: "I am the Blue Silver Grass soul beast in your hand."

"It was the aura of your martial soul that awakened me. If I stay by your side, it will be beneficial for your cultivation of the Blue Silver Grass martial soul!"

"Take you out? No way. What if you harm me?"

How could Li Ping'an dare to take Ah Yin with him? He didn't even possess a Soul Tool capable of carrying living things.

He didn't even have a storage Soul Tool; carrying a stalk of Blue Silver Grass would be far too conspicuous.

Ah Yin was anxious; she had just woken up and had accidentally exposed herself.

If Li Ping'an were to pull her out, she wouldn't die, but she would revert into a seed and fall into an even deeper slumber.

Therefore, she chose to communicate with Li Ping'an proactively, hoping to see if she could stay by this human's side.

Only by leaving this cave could she grow faster.

Ideally, if she could return to the Blue Silver Forest, she might even have a chance to recover her cultivation and be resurrected.

I wonder how the Second Brother and our child are doing?

Seeing that Li Ping'an was unwilling to take her, Ah Yin hurriedly added: "I am merely a stalk of Blue Silver Grass; I have no ability to harm you."

"You can just take me out and place me somewhere with sunlight and dew!"

How could Li Ping'an be willing? He had, after all, absorbed the soul bone of the Blue Silver Emperor.

In a sense, the two of them were half-enemies.
