Dragon Core?
"I never expected that this ruin would be hidden in such a remote place."
Yu Ming sighed, "If it weren't for that Soul Hunting team member mentioning it, we would never have found this place."
Yu Tianqing smiled and said, "It means we're lucky. At this rate, I think we can break through to Ninetieth Rank within two or three years."
Yu Shuyao nodded.
Based on her current cultivation speed, she is expected to be granted a title within five years.
Yu Ming listened from the side and nodded with a smile.
The fact that the two of them were able to break through the title barrier will be of even greater help to Yu Changge in the future.
His talent was slightly weaker than the other two, even though they had both consumed the same Immortal Herb.
But he was older and did not possess Spirit Bone.
Reaching Ninetieth Rank is quite difficult; it would probably take around ten years.
He was almost ninety years old at that time.
After cultivating for a while, the three began searching the surrounding area for any traces of where soul beasts had lived.
If a soul beast were to appear in such a lightning-infused ruin...
Its bloodline and strength should be quite high, and it's very likely Lightning Attribute soul beast.
The three arrived at the outer edge of a thunder pool.
In the center of the Thunder Pool, a large amount of purple lightning cascaded down like a waterfall.
The air was thick with the aura of lightning, and the rocks on the ground, repeatedly scorched by lightning, had become as smooth as a mirror.
Yu Shuyao suddenly pointed to the left front and said, "Look, there seems to be a plant over there constantly being attacked by lightning."
"Is that some kind of Plant-type Soul Beast?"
Yu Tianqing and Yu Ming looked in the direction she pointed.
At the edge of the lightning-infused pool, a deep purple vine was being bathed in lightning.
Its vines are covered with fine silver patterns, like a net woven from lightning.
Each time lightning strikes, the patterns light up with a dazzling flash.
Looking at the plant's characteristics, Yu Ming said with some surprise, "It's actually the Thunderclap Hellvine."
"When I returned to the clan before, Changge gave me some information he had compiled about soul beasts."
"The information on soul beasts includes a record of such a soul beast."
"Its growth is extremely difficult, requiring constant lightning strikes to improve its cultivation level, which perfectly matches the plant before us."
"Judging from its characteristics, this Thunderclap Hellvine before us is probably ten thousand years old."
Yu Tianqing was about to say something, his eyes suddenly narrowed.
"Wait, there seems to be something behind that vine."
The three of them looked closely.
Behind the Thunderclap Hellvine, a huge dark purple outline can be vaguely seen.
At first, its color was somewhat similar to that of the Thunder Pool, so I didn't notice it.
But after noticing the Thunderclap Hellvine, they realized that there seemed to be some kind of light flickering behind it.
The light flickered amidst the dense lightning, like a dancing star.
Yu Tianqing frowned. "Could it be Spirit Bone?"
The purple dragon was undoubtedly dead, and the only thing Yu Tianqing could think of that could emit light from its corpse was a Spirit Bone.
Yu Ming said to him, "Go and take a look, but be careful, the lightning pool here is very powerful."
Yu Tianqing nodded, took a deep breath, and his Seventh Soul Ring lit up.
"Seventh Soul Skill, Blue Lightning Avatar!"
His body instantly expanded, transforming into a Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon over ten meters long.
Its entire body was covered in scales that shimmered with lightning, its Dragon Wing spread wide, exuding an awe-inspiring power, and its massive body flew directly into the lightning pool area.
Countless bolts of lightning struck him, causing ripples to spread across the Soul Power shield around him.
But he gritted his teeth and forced his way to the side of the purple dragon's corpse.
Then he formed his right hand into a claw, condensing a huge hand of Soul Power, which enveloped the purple dragon, attempting to pull it back to a safe area.
Then, the Dragon Wing suddenly flapped, and it began to drag forcefully in the direction where Yu Shuyao and Yu Ming were.
The corpse was extremely heavy. Yu Tianqing's dragon claws sank deep into the dragon's scales, and the frequency of the Dragon Wing flapping increased significantly, producing a heavy whistling sound.
The corpse of the purple dragon moved slowly across the ground, making a dull grating sound.
Although it was indeed very heavy, he could still pull it.
However, in the eyes of Yu Ming and Yu Shuyao, this was somewhat ridiculous.
While pulling the corpse along, Yu Tianqing also had to divert his Soul Power to defend against the lightning that kept striking from the edge of the lightning pool.
Finally, he managed to drag the enormous purple dragon corpse out of the Thunder Pool.
Yu Tianqing deactivated his Martial Soul Avatar, wiped the sweat from his forehead, and let out a long breath.
"Goodness, this is really heavy."
Yu Ming stepped forward and looked at the giant purple dragon on the ground.
It was enormous, its entire body covered in dark purple scales, and even in death, a faint layer of lightning remained on its scales.
A faint, yet palpable, dragon's might emanated from the corpse.
Yu Ming crouched down and examined the body carefully for a moment, then gestured for Yu Tianqing to feel around on the corpse.
Yu Tianqing began to carefully search the corpse of the purple dragon. He inserted the dragon's claw into the chest cavity of the corpse and carefully felt around for a while.
What appeared in his hand was not the expected Spirit Bone, but a blue sphere the size of a fist.
The sphere was a deep blue color, with fine electric arcs flowing across its surface.
When you hold it in your hand, you can feel a warm energy emanating from within.
Yu Tianqing looked at the object in his hand with some confusion. "It's not Spirit Bone? Then what is it?"
The moment Yu Ming saw that thing, his pupils contracted sharply.
"This is Inner Pellet, or rather, Dragon Core!"
"You two have struck gold!"
"Dragon Core?" Yu Tianqing asked in confusion, "What is this?"
Yu Ming explained, "Didn't Changge explain the Soul Core Theory to us before?"
"He was inspired by the Inner Pellet of Exotic Beast beast, and this soul beast in front of us has actually condensed a Dragon Core within its body."
"It should contain extremely strong Lightning Attribute power."
"When you two are cultivating, you can take it out; it will accelerate your cultivation progress."
Yu Ming then continued, "This is the first time I've ever seen Dragon Core. Our family has hunted so many Sub-Dragon soul beasts before, but we've never seen a single one."
"From this, we can conclude that the dragon in front of us had a cultivation level of at least 100,000 years in its previous life. I am actually a little unaware of the origin of this dragon."
Yu Tianqing held the Dragon Core in his hands, feeling the warmth emanating from his palms.
He chuckled and said, "Elder Yu, we've been out here training for a year, and we've finally seen some good things."
Yu Shuyao nodded with a smile, her eyes full of joy.
On the other side, the Spirit Hall.
After more than a year, Qian Xunji finally finished the Sixth Angel Trial.
