Million-Year Soul Bone Skills

"I choose the second one—the Light Dragon King!"

Without hesitation, Qian Renxue made her choice in merely an instant.

"Oh?" Lu Chen looked at Qian Renxue in surprise. "Are you sure?"

"I'm sure!"

Qian Renxue's tone was utterly firm as she stared intensely at Lu Chen. "I choose the Light Dragon King!"

According to the future Heavenly Dao had told her about, she was destined to become the Angel God!

Given that she had a one hundred percent chance of becoming the Angel God, yet Heavenly Dao had offered her a second choice, there had to be a deeper meaning behind it!

Therefore, Qian Renxue did not hesitate to give up the first option.

She, Qian Renxue, was willing to brave fire and water for Heavenly Dao, to share his burdens and resolve his troubles!

She believed Heavenly Dao would never harm her!

"Interesting."

Lu Chen chuckled softly. "Since you've made your choice, take this Million-Year Breastbone."

As he spoke, a brilliant golden dragon bone fell before Qian Renxue. Her eyes lit up, and she looked up at Lu Chen.

"Lord Heavenly Dao, can I absorb it now?"

"You can."

Lu Chen nodded slightly, unable to suppress his amusement. The little girl was declaring her loyalty.

Having received Lu Chen's approval, Qian Renxue stared fervently at the Soul Bone. This was her first Soul Bone!

Her first Million-Year Soul Bone!

She definitely would not disappoint Heavenly Dao!

Buzz.

Qian Renxue released her Soul Power. Dazzling golden light bloomed before her chest, carrying the domineering aura unique to a Dragon King as it drew the breastbone before her toward her. The instant her Soul Power touched the Soul Bone, a golden phantom of a Dragon Soul drifted out of it.

The noble, sacred aura caught its attention. It looked at Qian Renxue, lowered its once-proud head, and filled its eyes with obedience.

The moment the golden Dragon Soul expressed its submission, no obstacle remained between the breastbone and Qian Renxue.

The instant the Soul Bone entered her body, Qian Renxue's second Martial Soul, the Light Dragon King's Martial Soul, emerged of its own accord.

The Light Dragon King kept its eyes shut as it coiled behind Qian Renxue. Influenced by her aura, it pulsed in a peculiar rhythm, helping her refine the Soul Bone within her body.

Seeing that Qian Renxue would still need quite some time to refine the Soul Bone, Lu Chen withdrew his gaze and looked toward a place below.

"Success! The first realm of the Purple Demon Eyes—Panoramic Vision!"

In Holy Spirit Village, Tang San finished his cultivation and rose to his feet. A faint purple gleam flickered in his eyes.

He looked toward the rising sun at the horizon, and the corners of his mouth lifted unconsciously. After years of arduous training, rising early every day to gather and absorb qi, he had finally mastered the Purple Demon Eyes.

Heaven did not disappoint those who worked hard!

"Unfortunately, the Mysterious Heaven Skill still hasn't budged." Tang San pursed his lips as he sensed the Mysterious Heaven Skill within his body, which had not advanced in the slightest.

It had been nearly a year since he reached the peak of the first stage. No matter how he cultivated during that year, he could not advance any further.

After repeatedly making indirect inquiries and gathering information from many sources, he suspected that his Mysterious Heaven Skill being stuck at the first stage and unable to improve was likely related to this world's Martial Souls.

But it was only a guess, and he could not be certain. He could only place his hopes on the Spirit Hall Soul Master who would come to Holy Spirit Village in a little over a year to awaken their Martial Souls.

"I wonder what my Martial Soul will be like."

"Little San! What time is it? Why are you still sitting on the roof? I'm starving to death!"

A thunderous voice came from below. Tang San, who had still been envisioning his future, lowered his head and looked down. When he saw that it was once again his drunkard father, he smiled helplessly.

Ever since he learned to cook for himself two years ago, Tang Hao had handed over the family's "cooking authority" entirely to him.

Whenever he was hungry, he would call for him. A few times, he had nearly interrupted Tang San's cultivation.

Yet Tang San felt no resentment over such things. Instead, a faint sense of happiness rose in his heart.

Having a father was wonderful.

"Alright! I'm coming!"

The next day.

As the sun and moon turned, after a day of refinement, the domineering aura around Qian Renxue gradually began to recede. Once it had completely withdrawn into her body, she opened her golden eyes. Looking closely, one could see what seemed like a tiny dragon constantly swimming within them.

"Huff!"

Qian Renxue exhaled a breath of hot air and smiled brightly at Lu Chen, who had waited for a long time. "Lord Heavenly Dao, I've finished refining it."

"Finished?"

Lu Chen withdrew his gaze from below and looked at the graceful Qian Renxue before him, his expression somewhat indifferent.

Refining this Million-Year Soul Bone had taken an entire day, which was not far from the time he had estimated.

There were no pleasant surprises, nor any unexpected developments.

It disappointed him somewhat.

That extraterrestrial fiend Tang San had undergone another leap in progress. His Purple Demon Eyes had risen by an entire major realm!

Qian Renxue, on the other hand, had always performed within his expectations. Not once had she brought him a surprise.

Comparing the two, he truly felt frustrated by her failure to meet expectations!

If the Dragon Realm had not helped him so much this time, he truly would have wanted to fiercely...

"Lord Heavenly Dao, I obtained four Soul Bone skills this time!"

Qian Renxue did not notice Lu Chen's mood. She spread her fingers and smiled happily.

"Four. Not bad." Lu Chen nodded. "Tell me what they are."

"Mm-hmm!"

Qian Renxue nodded excitedly and immediately activated her Million-Year Soul Bone. Golden light spread out from her body, enveloping an area of one hundred meters around her.

"This is its first skill, the Saint Dragon Domain! The size of the domain depends on my strength. Right now, I can only deploy it over an area of around one hundred meters."

"Anyone enveloped by the domain has all attributes reduced by fifty percent, along with the added effect of holy light burning!"

"For those on the same side as me, I can increase all their attributes by twenty to fifty percent, depending on both their strength and mine."

"Furthermore, flight is forbidden within the domain! Dark-attribute Martial Souls are completely suppressed! All dragon-type Martial Souls entering my domain will suffer even stronger domain suppression!"

"For example, dragon-type Soul Masters below the Soul King rank who are hostile toward me cannot even display the strength of a Soul Master within my domain. Those on the same side as me, however—even a level-ten Soul Master can, with the domain's enhancement, rely on their Martial Soul's power to fight a Soul Elder across ranks!"

After saying that, Qian Renxue withdrew her domain, then...

"Lord Heavenly Dao, what do you think? My domain is amazing, right?" Qian Renxue asked proudly.

"..."

Lu Chen said speechlessly, "If you still have Soul Power in your body, then this domain really is impressive."

"But with your Soul Power, how long can you sustain it now?"

"Ten seconds!"

"That's so short. Only ten seconds..."

"Once my strength improves, I'll definitely be able to sustain it for an entire day and night!"

Seeing Lu Chen's disdainful expression, Qian Renxue grew anxious!

How was that short?! It was not short at all!

I was only weak right now!

Using forty-level Soul Power to activate a Million-Year Soul Bone was already very strenuous!
