Soul Bone's Accompanying Soul Skill: Poison Mist Domain

Dugu Yan took a deep breath and slowly sat cross-legged, holding the snake-type torso bone in her hands; a cold, chilling sensation seeped from her palms.

She closed her eyes, quietly circulating her soul power to begin guiding the power of the spirit bone into her body.

Under the traction of her soul power, the spirit bone gradually transformed into a stream of icy energy, flowing through her meridians to every corner of her body.

As the spirit bone fused, Dugu Yan's body began to undergo subtle changes.

A faint, emerald-green light emerged on the surface of her skin, as if countless tiny snake shadows were swimming beneath it, flickering in and out of sight.

Her martial soul, the Jade Phosphorous Serpent, also manifested automatically at this moment; its body became more slender, and its scales shimmered with a cold, eerie luster, as if containing endless toxicity that made one's hair stand on end.

Having absorbed the power of the spirit bone, Dugu Yan felt her soul power rising rapidly, and the toxins within her body seemed to be drawn by the bone's power, gradually converging toward the location of the torso bone.

However, these toxins seemed to possess a consciousness of their own, hiding around the torso bone and lingering, unwilling to draw near.

Ye Ruilin, who had been observing from the side, frowned slightly at the sight.

He immediately raised his hand, and a cluster of golden flames suddenly erupted from his palm.

The flames were scorching and pure, containing an Ultimate Fire of extreme temperature, yet they were controlled with such precision that they did not harm Dugu Yan's body in the slightest.

With a gentle push, he slowly injected the flames into Dugu Yan's body; the fire acted like an invisible hand, guiding the toxins remaining in every part of her body to converge toward the spirit bone.

The power of the Ultimate Fire was overbearing yet precise, and under the pressure of the flames, the toxins within Dugu Yan were like a driven pack of snakes, surging rapidly toward the torso bone.

However, the torso bone seemed unwelcoming to these toxins, and a faint, intangible resistance emerged, attempting to block the intrusion of the poison.

The corners of Ye Ruilin's mouth curled up into a cold smirk. He whispered to himself.

"A mere remnant instinct of a torso bone dares to resist?"

Before the words had even faded, the flames in his hand intensified, and that resistance shattered instantly under the onslaught of the Ultimate Fire.

All the toxins, like a burst dam, surged crazily into the spirit bone.

After absorbing these toxins, the surface of the spirit bone gradually revealed a layer of dark green patterns, resembling a coiled venomous snake, emitting an aura that made one's heart tremble.

When the last trace of toxin was forced into the spirit bone, Dugu Yan's body finally relaxed completely.

Her cheeks, which had been somewhat pale, slowly regained their rosy hue, and she looked entirely refreshed.

Slowly opening her eyes, a flash of surprise and disbelief crossed Dugu Yan's gaze.

She could clearly feel that her martial soul had not weakened due to the transfer of the toxins; on the contrary, it had become even stronger.

What surprised her even more was that the spirit bone had actually derived a brand-new soul skill after absorbing the toxins.

"Grandfather, this spirit bone actually generated a new soul skill after absorbing my toxins!"

Dugu Yan looked at Dugu Bo in pleasant surprise, her voice as crisp as a silver bell, her face brimming with a bright, radiant smile.

Dugu Bo had not expected such an unexpected harvest; his green eyes lit up instantly, as if he had discovered some rare treasure.

He said impatiently.

"Quick, try out your new soul skill!"

Ye Ruilin smiled as he stood up and stepped aside, signaling that Dugu Yan could begin.

Dugu Yan nodded, stood up, and quietly circulated her soul power.

The phantom of the Jade Phosphorous Serpent appeared behind her, its snake eyes flickering with a cold, eerie light, as if it could pierce through everything.

She gave a light shout, and the power of the spirit bone erupted instantly; a cloud of emerald-green poison mist surged from her body, spreading rapidly.

Wherever the poison mist passed, the air seemed to corrode, emitting a "hissing" sound that made one shudder.

Dugu Yan stood in the center of the poison mist like a queen in control of everything, her eyes filled with confidence and joy.

"This is the Poison Mist Domain!"

Dugu Yan said happily, her voice carrying an undisguised excitement.

Ye Ruilin nodded, a trace of approval flashing in his eyes.

"That's right. I suspect that after this spirit bone absorbed your toxins, it derived a domain-type soul skill."

"Within this Poison Mist Domain, the enemy's movements will be severely restricted, and they will simultaneously suffer from continuous toxic erosion."

"This soul skill not only enhances your poison control but also makes your combat style more flexible."

Dugu Bo watched from the side, dumbfounded, before bursting into hearty laughter, his voice filled with relief and pride.

He patted Dugu Yan on the shoulder, his eyes brimming with tenderness.

"Good! Good! As expected of the Ye Family lad, he truly has the ability!"

"Girl, you can finally return to normal."

As he said this, his eye sockets turned slightly red, and his voice choked with emotion.

Dugu Yan immediately sensed Dugu Bo's mood; her heart warmed, and she threw herself into his arms, burying her face in his chest, her voice muffled. "Grandfather, thank you."

Her voice carried a hint of a sob.

Afterward, she lifted her head slightly and turned her gaze toward Ye Ruilin. Her expression was complex, filled with both gratitude and a touch of shyness.

She whispered.

"Thank you, too."

Having said that, she quickly buried her face back into Dugu Bo's chest, the tips of her ears turning slightly red.

Watching his granddaughter's bashful appearance, Dugu Bo burst into hearty laughter, his voice filled with doting affection.

He turned his head to look at Ye Ruilin, a sharp glint flashing in his eyes.

"Kid from the Ye Family, since I am following by your side, my granddaughter will naturally follow as well."

His tone carried an unquestionable firmness.

Ye Ruilin was taken aback; he had not expected Dugu Bo to let Dugu Yan follow him as well.

He clearly remembered that Dugu Yan was Yu Tianheng's fiancée, though at this moment, the two of them did not seem to have reached that stage yet.

He asked with some hesitation.

"Doesn't she need to go to the Heaven Dou Royal Academy to study?"

Dugu Bo let out a disdainful cold snort, his tone carrying a hint of arrogance. "What a joke! That was only because I had to live in the Sunset Forest year-round to control the toxins in my body."

"Otherwise, with my ability, why would I ever need to send my own granddaughter to the Heaven Dou Royal Academy?"

Dugu Bo glanced at Ma Hongjun, a meaningful smile flashing in his eyes.

He was no fool; following by Ye Ruilin's side, the benefits would certainly be endless.

This kid had only been by Ye Ruilin's side for a short time, and his Martial Soul, which was already a top-tier beast Martial Soul, had actually been able to evolve.

If his own granddaughter stayed by his side, perhaps her Martial Soul could evolve into something even more formidable.

Whether for his granddaughter's future or for her to better win this boy over, this was an excellent opportunity.

He would naturally not let this chance slip away easily.

"Kid, just tell me whether you agree or not."

Dugu Bo looked at Ye Ruilin, wearing an expression that suggested he was ready to act like a rascal if he didn't agree.

Ye Ruilin looked at Dugu Bo's demeanor, feeling helpless in his heart, but he could only accept it.

"Fine, fine, fine. Since you don't mind, Senior, then she can come along."
