Absorbing the Dark Gold Terrorclaw Bear Right Palm Bone!

Lu Xiao's breathing quickened, and an unbelievable ecstasy surged in his eyes.

The Dark Gold Terrorclaw Bear Right Palm Bone that Du Busi had regretted being unable to see during the day now floated quietly within Lu Xiao's Consciousness Sea.

It was an unusual bone, dark gold in color, with ancient yet intricate patterns and rich Soul Power fluctuations emanating from it.

It was roughly palm-sized, its body smooth and jade-like. Yet five long, narrow blades extended from its front, its crystalline surface gleaming with a faint dark golden radiance!

As his gaze lowered, the second treasure made his heart pound even harder.

A single purple-black droplet hovered silently. Though seemingly tiny, it carried the destructive pressure of annihilating all things. Even the Soul Power in the surrounding Consciousness Sea was intimidated by an invisible force and dared not approach.

It was Destruction Essence!

One had to know that the God King of Destruction, one of the five great God Kings of the Divine Realm, was himself Destruction Essence!

Even after the system's refinement, the Destruction Origin contained within remained one of the most supreme power origins in existence!

The final item was a tender, verdant branch. Its wood was warm and translucent, wreathed in a soft emerald glow brimming with endless vitality. An ancient, vast, and profound aura of life washed over him.

Simply looking at it dispelled all of Lu Xiao's exhaustion and even made his soul relax.

The New Branch of the Ancient Tree of Life!

There was no need to say more. It had to come from the Goddess of Life, one of the five great God Kings!

Compared to these two divine treasures of the God Kings, even the top-grade thousand-year Dark Gold Terrorclaw Bear Right Palm Bone seemed utterly ordinary!

"First, I'll fuse with the Soul Bone!"

With a thought from Lu Xiao, the Dark Gold Terrorclaw Bear Right Palm Bone appeared in his hand.

The instant it appeared, even space seemed to ripple.

He picked up the Dark Gold Terrorclaw Bear Right Palm Bone and sat down where he was, mobilizing the Soul Power within his body to guide the Soul Bone into merging with him.

The moment the right palm bone came into contact with his Soul Power, it turned into a pool of dark golden liquid and slowly seeped through his fingers toward his palm.

At first, Lu Xiao only felt as though warm liquid had wrapped around his right hand.

Very quickly, that warmth turned scorching, and the scorching gradually became blazing heat!

In an instant, that pure power of Ultimate Metal became violent and razor-sharp, exploding through the meridians, bones, and flesh of Lu Xiao's right hand!

Terrifying golden energy charged wildly through the meridians of Lu Xiao's palm, tearing apart every inch of flesh and connective tissue.

Lu Xiao's entire right hand had turned dark gold.

Faintly, it seemed as if something beneath his skin was about to burst out from his palm!

At that moment, the branch of the Ancient Tree of Life within his Consciousness Sea began emitting waves of emerald-golden light.

Strands of pure life force merged into Lu Xiao's right hand. The initially violent energy immediately calmed the instant it came into contact with that life force.

The immense power gradually compressed within his bones, then slowly took shape...

Layer upon layer of fine, mysterious patterns emerged across Lu Xiao's right palm, each one radiating a dark golden glow!

Time passed, second by second.

Lu Xiao suddenly let out a low roar and jerked up his right arm. With a sharp pfft, golden light burst from his five fingers.

Five dark golden streaks of light abruptly extended from his fingers. Each was about two feet and one inch long, broad at the top and narrow at the bottom, like a blade.

Lu Xiao swung his hand instinctively, and dark golden light flashed.

BOOM—!

The large bed beside him instantly collapsed. The bedboards shattered, and splinters flew everywhere!

That was not all. The razor-sharp power of Ultimate Metal swept through the entire wooden cabin. The tables and chairs trembled faintly, while the windows rattled nonstop.

Next door, Du Busi, who had just settled into a cross-legged position to meditate and recuperate, suddenly opened his eyes!

Without the slightest hesitation, Du Busi's figure flickered, turning into a streak of emerald afterimage. He instantly smashed through the door and rushed toward Lu Xiao's bedroom at an unimaginable speed.

Meanwhile, in Xiao Wu's room next door.

Xiao Wu, who had already lain down and was lightly asleep, was jolted awake by the tremendous noise. "Lu Xiao!"

Xiao Wu's heart tightened. Without bothering to put on her shoes, she ran out on her bare feet, following closely behind Du Busi as she anxiously rushed toward Lu Xiao's bedroom.

Du Busi pushed the door open first.

What he saw left this Super Douluo, who had weathered countless storms, completely frozen in place. His pupils contracted sharply, his face filled with disbelief!

In the center of the room, Lu Xiao stood there blankly, staring at Du Busi.

His entire right arm flowed with a deep dark golden sheen. At the tips of his five fingers, dark golden claws two feet and one inch long gleamed with cold light, their sharpness fully exposed!

As they trembled faintly, they constantly stirred up fine spatial ripples, accompanied by an unending series of hissing sounds as they cut through the air!

"The Dark Gold Terrorclaw Bear Right Palm Bone!"

Du Busi cried out in shock, his eyes fixed on Lu Xiao in utter disbelief. "Where did it come from?!"

"Uh..."

Lu Xiao scratched his head and said hesitantly, "What if I said... I don't know where this Soul Bone came from either? Would you believe me?"

After thinking briefly, Du Busi said with certainty, "Maybe when you absorbed the Soul Ring, this Soul Bone was absorbed together with it!"

As he spoke, Du Busi clapped his hands repeatedly in amazement. "That must be it!"

It was the only reasonable explanation he could think of. Only that could explain everything before him.

Xiao Wu ran to Lu Xiao's side, her eyes full of admiration. "Lu Xiao, your hand is so pretty—and so powerful!"

Lu Xiao could not help but smile. With a thought, he slowly withdrew his Soul Power.

In an instant, the deep dark golden radiance over his right arm completely receded, restoring it to the clean, ordinary appearance of an arm!

The age of the Dark Gold Terrorclaw Bear Right Palm Bone rewarded by the system was not particularly high. It had only increased his Soul Power by one and a half levels!

However, that suited Lu Xiao perfectly. His physical body had not yet been tempered to its limits, so it was not advisable for him to break through too early!

After this little incident, Du Busi arranged another room for Lu Xiao before returning to his own room with Xiao Wu.

Xiao Wu had originally intended to squeeze in with Lu Xiao, but when she saw Du Busi's icy gaze, she restrained herself.

Lu Xiao lay on the bed.

At the center of his Consciousness Sea, his Body Martial Soul stood wrapped in Bronze Treasure Light, with the phantom of a golden dragon coiling behind it.

Destruction Essence and the branch of the Ancient Tree of Life rested on either side, as strands of Destruction Origin and Life Origin merged into his Martial Soul.

Lu Xiao's mind stirred, and everything suddenly became clear to him. He understood the crucial point.

The two divine treasures of the God Kings would gradually transform his Body Martial Soul until it could bear these two utterly different powers!

The night breeze outside the window brushed gently past. Within his Consciousness Sea, the two great treasures slowly circulated, continuously nourishing his Martial Soul!

A wave of drowsiness washed over him. Lu Xiao relaxed, his consciousness gradually blurring as he fell into a deep sleep.

In his dream, he seemed to see two sacred phantoms.

One wore a purple cloak. He could only vaguely make out two balls of red light pulsing within it, while his face remained obscured. Beneath that cloak seemed to lurk an endless, profound, terrifying aura!

The other wore a sea-green gown, her body veiled in a faint layer of golden light. She was filled with the aura of life, making her feel exceptionally warm and familiar!
