On Whether Spirit Bones Increase a Soul Master's Soul Power (Explanation)
In my previous books, the Spirit Bone generally increased Soul Power, but starting with this one, they don't. The reason is simple: some parts of the original work don't include them.
But!
Today, a reader sent me several other excerpts of the original text, saying they could enhance Soul Power.
I went completely numb.
The recommended daily intake of three spoonfuls is inconsistent; sometimes it can be increased, sometimes it can't.
You can read the original text first:
(1) Blue Silver Emperor Right Leg Bone
Obtaining the Blue Silver Emperor Right Leg Bone didn't increase Tang San's Soul Power, only further purify it. However, opening his Governing Vessel brought him immense benefits. With Eight Extraordinary Meridians open, Tang San's Soul Power directly increased to level fifty-nine. Given time, once he maxed out his Soul Power, he could begin to challenge the level sixty bottleneck. At that time, he could then go and search for Xiao Wu, whom he hadn't seen for five years.
Conclusion: Soul Power did not increase.
(2) The Spirit-Condensing Wisdom Skull
[As expected of Spirit-Condensing Wisdom Skull. The unprecedented concentration of spiritual energy has astounded Tang San, as if his mind has been unlocked. He no longer needs his eyes to perceive; he can now clearly sense everything around him.]
Conclusion: Soul Power did not increase, but mental power increased significantly.
(3) The Sky Azure Bull Python Right Arm Bone and the Titan Giant Ape Left Arm Bone
[Sacrifice, yes, sacrifice. This is what Da Ming meant when he and Er Ming said they had a way to directly get Tang San to Ninetieth Rank. The boost from the sacrifice of two overlords of the Star Dou Forest and two Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Beast would be enough to make Tang San's Soul Power jump five levels, reaching level Ninetieth Rank. ]
[Instantly soaring into the air, breaking through to the ninth ring, with a powerful Soul Power reaching level ninety-one, Tang San leaped into the air, releasing his spiritual power to isolate himself from all external spiritual probes, and headed towards the distance.]
Conclusion: The two Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Ring increased Tang San's Soul Power from level 85 to level 91, while the two Hundred Thousand Year Soul Bone did not provide Soul Power.
(4) Left Leg Bone of the Evil Orca King
Dai Mubai said, "Little San, what level is your Soul Power now? Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Ring should allow you to improve further, right?"
Tang San nodded, "I'm already Eighty-Third Rank, almost level 84."
Conclusion: The Evil Orca King's Soul Ring provides level three Soul Power, while the Spirit Bone provides no Soul Power.
(5) Deep Sea Demonic Whale King's Torso Bones
Tang San was pleasantly surprised to discover that the Deep Sea Demonic Whale King was indeed Million-Year Soul Beast; absorbing its Spirit Bone had brought him immense benefits.
Leaving aside the changes in his physical attributes, the increase in his Soul Power alone brought him immense joy. Not only did his Soul Power break through the barrier of Ninety-Seventh Rank, but it also broke through two more levels, directly reaching Ninety-Ninth Rank, the peak of the Peerless Douluo. This exponential increase in Soul Power even gave Tang San the confidence to fight Qian Renxue again.
In the above excerpt, the Spirit Bone provided Soul Power? Let's continue reading.
[What Tang San didn't know was that his Soul Power's dramatic increase wasn't solely due to the benefits of the Deep Sea Demonic Whale King's Soul Ring and Spirit Bone. It's important to understand that after Ninety-Fifth Rank, each subsequent level of Soul Power advancement becomes extremely difficult. While the Deep Sea Demonic Whale King's Soul Ring and Spirit Bone contained immense energy, they could only help him reach Ninety-Eighth Rank at most. His breakthrough to Ninety-Ninth Rank was due to the almost unbearable pain he endured. The golden light of the Sea God and the red of the Mutated Divine Slaughter's Domain, using his body as a battlefield, subtly and significantly benefited his physique. That God-Tier collision compressed and stimulated his Soul Power, and the perfect combination of his God-Tier body and the released energy propelled his Soul Power to the limit achievable by humans— Ninety-Ninth Rank. ]
Conclusion: Theoretically, Million-Year Soul Ring and Spirit Bone can only raise Tang San's level from Ninety-Seventh Rank to Ninety-Eighth Rank. The reason he was raised to Ninety-Ninth Rank is due to the conflict between the powers of the Sea God and the Asura Divine Power.
Therefore, I actually lean towards the idea that Million-Year Soul Ring provides one level of Soul Power, but Spirit Bone grants Soul Power.
(6) Xiao Wu's Spirit Bone
[With Xiao Wu transforming into Tang San's Sixth Soul Ring and acquiring his fourth Spirit Bone, Hundred-Thousand-Year Tier, Tang San's strength underwent a dramatic transformation.]
[Under the influence of Xiao Wu's Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Ring, Tang San's Soul Power directly increased from level 60 to level 65, skipping a stage. Not only did he gain Soul Skill, but his attributes in all aspects were also comprehensively improved. A healthy light red layer appeared on his skin, and his entire body underwent a complete transformation.]
Conclusion: The Spirit Bone did not provide Soul Power.
(7) Eight Spider Lances
[He seemed like an ordinary teenager, the kind you'd easily blend into a crowd. Surprisingly, Tang San's Soul Power had reached level thirty-two. This wasn't due to three months of special training, but rather from the Man Faced Demon Spider Soul Ring he had previously acquired. Perhaps because of breaking through his limits, the pain inflicted by the Man Faced Demon Spider Tang San Soul Ring was immense, but the benefits were equally significant. Besides the Soul Ring and Spirit Bone, his Soul Power had also directly increased to level thirty-two, making others extremely envious. Of course, envy aside, none of them dared to absorb Soul Ring beyond their level like Tang San did.]
Conclusion: Absorbing the Man Faced Demon Spider around for over two thousand years only provides level one Soul Power, External Soul Bone does not provide Soul Power.
In conclusion, it can be observed that the Spirit Bone Tang San obtained basically did not increase his Soul Power.
However, there are exceptions, namely Dai Mubai and Zhu Zhuqing, which is why I'm posting a single image.
Tang San handed the black right leg bone to Zhu Zhuqing, saying, "This is what I obtained after killing Ghost Douluo. This Spirit Bone is undoubtedly suitable for agility-type Soul Master. You'll experience its specific effects for yourself. Ghost Douluo's Gui Mei abilities are similar to your Netherworld abilities, therefore, it's most suitable for you."
At the same time, Tang San handed the white Spirit Bone to Dai Mubai, saying, "Boss, this is what I obtained after hunting a White-Eyed Demon Tiger King that was about 60,000 to 70,000 years old. This guy was quite a tyrant in Sunset Forest. It's the same type as your Martial Soul, so it's definitely the most suitable for you. You two should absorb it now."
According to Tang San's calculations, this level of Spirit Bone should be of great benefit to the two of them. In addition to the newly acquired skills and the enhancement to their bodies, it should also be able to help them further improve their Soul Power, and it should be able to raise their level by about one.
Sure enough, two hours later, after Dai Mubai and Zhu Zhuqing finished Spirit Bone, their Soul Power increased to level 84 and 82 respectively.
Some readers previously said that absorbing Spirit Bone a second time doesn't increase Soul Power, but what's this? Zhu Zhuqing absorbed it and actually increased her Soul Power by one level?
Then Dai Mubai's Spirit Bone, which is 70,000 years old, is of much higher quality than Zhu Zhuqing's, and is also a first-level bone.
The contradiction is so obvious! It's completely baffling me. And I keep getting arguments from readers who say that Spirit Bone increase Soul Power, accusing me of creating my own fanfiction or personal interpretations. I'm truly innocent!
So I decided to reorganize the original text.
Then there's the Bloodthirsty Berserk Hurricane Right Leg Bone that Dai Mubai obtained from the Wolf Bandit. After absorbing it, there was no significant increase in Soul Power either.
The following is Douluo II:
(1) Ice Jade Empress Scorpion Torso Bone
[That blood-red Soul Ring, shimmering with four golden streaks, was the first Soul Ring of his Second Martial Soul, the Ice Empress. It was Soul Ring with a lifespan of four hundred thousand years.]
This morning, after two consecutive days of being astonished by the two's cultivation speed, Wang Dong finally tested Huo Yuhao's Soul Power. He was shocked from before breakfast until they arrived at the Great Colosseum, because Huo Yuhao's Soul Power had already reached level twenty-six.
Conclusion: Huo Yuhao entered the Extreme North at level 20. His First Martial Soul, the Spirit Eye, and his Second Martial Soul Second Soul Ring were the Thousand-Year Ice Silkworm. His second spirit, the Ice Empress, had First Soul Ring of 400,000 years. His Soul Power increased by a total of six levels. His Spirit Bone was integrated into Huo Yuhao body for modification, but it did not provide any Soul Power.
(2) Ice Jade Scorpion Left Arm Bone
The original text is too fragmented. It only states that after absorbing the Spirit Bone, Huo Yuhao's Soul Power increased from the peak of Twenty-Ninth Rank to Thirtieth Rank, and he needed to hunt soul beasts. (Among them, the Ice Empress's torso bone had an improving effect on the Spirit Bone.)
Conclusion: Spirit Bone provide level one Soul Power, helping to break through bottlenecks.
As for Huo Yuhao's other Spirit Bone... the original text is still quite scattered, without any clear indication of an increase in Soul Power.
Douluo II's not that I don't want to post the original text, it's just that it's too scattered, and I couldn't find it even after searching for more than an hour.
As for Douluo Dalu III: The Legend of the Dragon King...
The most obvious example is the piece of God-Tier Mountain Dragon King's Torso Bone that Tang Wulin absorbed; he also did not gain any increase in Soul Power.
You should all be familiar with the story of the Thousand-Day Dragon Burial. During those thousand days, Tang Wulin's Soul Power barely increased.
Don't say it's because the Mountain Dragon King has been dead for a long time; he was still a God-Tier Spirit Bone. What level was Tang Wulin at the time? Less than level 50, and he didn't even get one level of Soul Power?
This cannot be explained away by the fact that the fall took a long time.

Having compiled this far, I've unknowingly reached three thousand words. I don't know how many readers will actually read it, or if they'll think I'm being too meticulous.
Even though it's fan fiction, there are still some settings that need to be followed, right?
In summary, apart from a very few Spirit Bone that can indeed increase Soul Power, most Spirit Bone primarily enhance various attributes of Soul Master (physical constitution, mental strength) and have little effect on increasing Soul Power.
It's actually quite easy to understand. The Douluo system is basically a modified version of an online game. Spirit Bone are like a variant of God-Tier equipment in online games. Equipment can provide various attributes, but I've never seen equipment that can increase experience.
Therefore, let's make an agreement here, which is that Spirit Bone can be a special case that can enhance Soul Power.
A very few high-quality Spirit Bone can help Soul Master break through bottlenecks and have a certain chance of breaking through Soul Power.
Apart from that, Spirit Bone do not increase Soul Power.
Finally, I sincerely apologize for taking up everyone's time.
Finally, brothers, you don't have to wait for the book to mature; it would be even better if you just kept reading!
