External Soul Bone: Mandala Poison Eyes, Poison Gaze, Jade Phosphorus Poison Body!

Ye Lingling stepped forward and explained urgently, trying her best to be clear:

"After Yanzi killed the 20,000-year-old Mandala Snake, a scarlet light suddenly shot out from the serpent's corpse, directly piercing into the senior's eyes, and then she fainted."

"I checked her; she wasn't injured, she's just in a deep sleep."

Dugu Bo's brows furrowed into a knot.

Scarlet light?

Directly into the eyes?

Ye Qing also squatted down to check on Dugu Yan's condition.

After thinking for a moment, he said calmly, "Don't rush. Since she's not in mortal danger, let's wait until she wakes up—"

Before she could finish speaking, Dugu Yan's Soul Power suddenly surged violently.

An invisible ripple of Soul Power spread out from her body.

Yu Feng, with his sharp eyes, was the first to exclaim, "Yanzi's Soul Power is increasing! Level 49...50!"

Everyone gasped.

Breaking through a bottleneck while unconscious?

Dugu Bo suddenly grabbed Ye Qing's arm. "You brat, this—"

"Wait for her to wake up."

Ye Qing's expression also changed slightly, but he still managed to restrain the impatient Dugu Bo.

Fifteen minutes later.

Dugu Yan's eyelashes trembled, and she slowly opened her eyes.

For a moment, everyone present was stunned.

Her pupils changed!

Deep within the emerald green iris, a vertical snake-like pattern faintly emerges.

A very faint blue snake membrane covered the surface of both eyes.

Eerie, sharp, with an indescribable dangerous allure.

But this strange phenomenon only lasted for two or three breaths before it subsided, and the pupils returned to normal.

"Yanyan!"

Dugu Bo helped his granddaughter up, his tone unusually anxious.

"How are you feeling?"

"Is anything bothering you?"

Dugu Yan shook her head, looking somewhat bewildered.

"Grandpa? What are you doing here...?"

She raised her hand to rub her eyes and frowned.

"My eyes... seem to have something else in them."

"I can't quite put my finger on it, but it feels like I have an extra layer of perception when I look at things that I didn't have before."

Ye Qing's pupils suddenly contracted.

A thought flashed through his mind like lightning.

"Could it be External Soul Bone?!"

The moment those three words left his mouth, Dugu Bo's expression changed drastically.

"What?!"

Without saying a word, the old man investigated again.

This time, the investigation was much more thorough, leaving no stone unturned, not even the faintest fluctuations of Soul Power.

A dozen or so breaths later.

Dugu Bo's hand stopped.

His expression shifted from tension to shock, from shock to disbelief, and finally to ecstasy.

"External Soul Bone... it really is External Soul Bone!"

Dugu Bo suddenly stood up, his voice trembling.

"And it's the pupil bone! The pupil bone!"

Yu Feng looked completely bewildered. "External Soul Bone? What's that?"

Ning Rongrong and the others looked at Ye Qing with the same confusion.

"External Soul Bone..."

Ye Qing took a deep breath and explained, "It's an extremely special form of Soul Bone."

"Ordinary Soul Bone are divided into six major parts: head, torso, limbs, etc."

"However, External Soul Bone do not occupy any regular Soul Bone slots; instead, they are attached to a special part of the body."

"Their rarity surpasses even that of Hundred Thousand Year Soul Bone."

"Rarest than... even Hundred Thousand Year Soul Bone?"

Yu Feng gasped.

The way he looked at Dugu Yan changed instantly; it was now filled with naked envy, jealousy, and hatred.

Shi Mo and Shi Mo exchanged a glance, their eyes already beginning to redden.

Osler opened his mouth, but only managed to squeeze out two words: "Awesome!"

"Ha ha ha ha!"

Dugu Bo threw his head back and laughed loudly, the sound echoing through half of Sunset Forest.

"As expected of my granddaughter, Dugu Bo!"

"Slaying Ten Thousand Year Soul Beast with my own hands, and having its external pupil bone actively fuse with it—this is a divinely ordained destiny!"

After laughing, his face darkened.

An overwhelming aura of a Titled Douluo was released without reservation, sending chills down the spines of everyone present.

Dugu Bo's gaze slowly swept over Yu Feng, Osler, the Shi Brothers, Ning Rongrong, and Ye Lingling.

"You all have to keep what happened today to yourselves."

Every word he uttered pierced everyone's ears.

"Whoever lets slip the secret, I'll teach them a lesson they won't forget."

Everyone fell silent, terrified.

Yu Feng even instinctively covered his mouth.

Dugu Bo turned around, just about to ask his granddaughter about the specific effects of the External Soul Bone.

"Don't rush."

Ye Qing interrupted.

He glanced at the carcass of the Mandala Snake.

The 20,000-year-old Soul Ring was still slowly rotating above the corpse, emitting a heavy black light.

If it's not absorbed soon, it will dissipate.

"Yanzi, the Soul Ring won't wait for anyone."

"Now that you've broken through level 50, strike while the iron is hot and absorb this 20,000-year-old Soul Ring."

Dugu Yan was taken aback, then her eyes lit up.

She sensed that her Soul Power had indeed broken through level fifty.

"Clear!"

Dugu Yan sat down cross-legged, fully activating her Jade Phosphorus Flood Dragon Martial Soul, and began to absorb the endlessly spinning 20,000-year-old black Soul Ring.

Dugu Bo and Ye Qing stood guard on either side of her.

A Titled Douluo a captain with unfathomable strength—this combination is enough to make any uninvited guest back down.

Half an hour later.

Boom--!

The fluctuations of Soul Power emanating from Dugu Yan suddenly surged!

Five Soul Ring appeared beneath her feet.

Two yellow, two purple, and the outermost fifth Soul Ring, which radiates a black light and is twenty thousand years old.

Soul Power Level 52!

Dugu Yan slowly opened her eyes.

A fleeting glimpse of scarlet mandala patterns appeared in his emerald green pupils.

"How are you feeling?" Ye Qing asked.

Dugu Yan felt the earth-shattering changes within her body.

She closed her eyes.

When I opened my eyes again,

Snake membranes appeared in both pupils!

An invisible sense of mental pressure arose.

"Poison Gaze."

Dugu Yan murmured the name.

"This is an ability granted to me by the Mandala Snake's pupil bone. By locking onto a target with my gaze, I can plant a mental toxin mark. The stronger my mental power, the more potent the mental toxin."

"The Mandala Snake's eye bone can also greatly enhance my mental strength."

Dugu Bo's eyes nearly popped out of their sockets.

The Poison Eye Bone, a mental-type poison technique, is a perfect match for the Green Phosphorus Flood Dragon's poison-attribute Martial Soul!

"What about the fifth Soul Skill?" Ye Qing pressed.

Dugu Yan took a deep breath.

The Jade Phosphorus Flood Dragon Martial Soul fully unfolded behind her, and its fifth Soul Ring suddenly lit up.

A layer of pale blue poisonous light surged from her body, covering her entire body.

Her speed, strength, defense, and Soul Power fluctuations all increased to a new level at this moment.

The most terrifying thing was that the toxic aura emanating from her was more than twice as strong.

"My fifth Soul Skill: Jade Phosphorus Poison Body"

Dugu Yan clenched her fists, her voice barely concealing her excitement.

"All attributes are amplified, and the power of all poison Soul Skill is doubled."

The camp erupted in chaos.

"All attributes boosted, Soul Skill effects doubled?" Yu Feng's voice cracked.

"What kind of heaven-defying boost is this..." Osler murmured.

Dugu Yan stood up, exuding a sharp and transformed aura.

Ye Qing was just about to say something concluding.

Dugu Yan rushed forward in three strides and grabbed Ye Qing's neck.

Pop!

She planted a kiss on his cheek.

Mwah!

They kissed each other several more times.

"Ye Qing! Thank you so much!"

Dugu Yan was a little too excited, but she didn't stop talking.

Ye Qing was stunned by the kiss, and before she could even smile smugly, she was completely taken aback.

A gaze, chilling to the bone, pierced through from the side.

Dugu Bo's face was so black it could drip ink.

"Yanyan!"

The old man's voice was eerily calm.

"Grandpa, I'm still here."

"!"

Dugu Yan froze instantly.

Slowly, gently, he released his grip on Ye Qing's neck.

"Cough... I'm so excited, so excited."

Ye Qing tactfully moved two steps to the side, her expression unchanged and her heart unmoved.

Dugu Bo snorted coldly, his gaze capable of killing.

Ye Qing cleared his throat and turned his gaze to the entire team.

Yu Feng, Osler, the Shi Brothers, Ye Lingling, and Ning Rongrong —each of them had an unprecedented flame burning in their eyes.

"See that?"

"You'll never have this kind of experience in a greenhouse."

Only those who dare to bare their fangs at powerful beings deserve the gifts of fate.

He glanced at the crowd's intense gazes and smiled.

"So, are you still afraid of the upcoming special training?"

"Don't be afraid!"

The group shouted in unison.

The sound pierced through the treetops, startling a flock of birds into flight.

They also want External Soul Bone!
