External Spirit Bone (Please Follow)

Buzz—

The purple Millennium Spirit Ring trembled slightly, and a mass of black radiance taller than Lin Yan enveloped his body.

Unlike the scorching heat of flames, this black radiance gave off only a sense of immense heaviness, like the boundless earth.

In an instant, he immediately sensed that his strength had doubled.

Lin Yan gathered all his strength and swung his mace at his grandmother.

She was a Titled Douluo, so there was naturally no need for him to hold back.

No matter what, his attack could not possibly hurt her.

Lin Yuhuan raised her hand slightly, and a cluster of spirit power appeared in her palm. She easily caught Lin Yan's full-force strike.

"Very good attack power. That strike alone is not something an ordinary two-ring Great Soul Master could withstand."

"According to what you said, this Inner Force attack will grow more powerful as your own strength increases."

"It has amplification and offense. No matter how you look at it, this is a perfect spirit skill that can be called divine." Lin Yuhuan smiled in satisfaction.

"Exactly, Grandma. I think so too. Insisting on choosing this Millennial Titan Giant Ape was indeed the right choice." Lin Yan withdrew his martial spirit and smiled.

"Of course it was the right choice! Look at this."

Lin Yuhuan suddenly took out a glittering object.

Lin Yan looked over, and his expression froze slightly.

It was a yellow crystal shaped like a palm, emanating waves of spirit power.

Ordinary crystals naturally would not contain spirit power, much less be shaped like a human hand.

Could this be...?

Lin Yuhuan said happily, "I was very surprised as well. After this Titan Giant Ape died, it actually produced a Spirit Bone—and it's a Palm Bone."

"Palm Bones are External Spirit Bones, the finest among Spirit Bones. Their power can increase along with a Soul Master's cultivation. On the Soul Master Dream Ranking, their rarity is second only to Hundred-Thousand-Year Spirit Rings and Hundred-Thousand-Year Spirit Bones."

"An External Spirit Bone?"

Lin Yan's face was filled with delight. As a transmigrator, he naturally knew just how precious External Spirit Bones were.

He had not expected that hunting this Titan Giant Ape would not only grant him a powerful millennium spirit skill, but also produce such a precious External Spirit Bone.

Fortunately, those people from the Clear Sky Sect did not know about it.

If they knew there was an External Spirit Bone, that War King Douluo would probably abandon all shame and seize it by force. He would never give up so easily.

"This is a Titan Giant Ape Right Palm Bone. Absorb it!"

Lin Yuhuan handed the Spirit Bone to Lin Yan.

"For me? Grandma, you can absorb it too!"

Though he desperately wanted it, Lin Yan still spoke politely.

Lin Yuhuan smiled. "Silly boy, Grandma is already a Titled Douluo. This Spirit Bone would not have much room to grow with me. But with you, it can rapidly become stronger."

"Spirit Bones can also greatly enhance one's attributes. This External Spirit Bone happens to be a right Palm Bone, so it will surely provide a major boost to your right arm's strength. Not only will that reduce the strain of using your martial spirit, it can also increase the damage of your second spirit skill, Inner Force. It kills two birds with one stone and suits you perfectly."

"Thank you, Grandma!"

Lin Yan accepted the Spirit Bone, then began absorbing it under Lin Yuhuan's guidance.

Generally speaking, Spirit Bones were easier to absorb than Spirit Rings.

A three-ring Soul Elder could absorb a Ten-Thousand-Year Spirit Bone, but not a Ten-Thousand-Year Spirit Ring.

However, External Spirit Bones were an exception.

This was because the human body only had room for Spirit Bones in the head, torso, and four limbs.

Any Spirit Bone outside those six locations was known as an External Spirit Bone.

Apart from those six locations, the human skeleton had no capacity to accommodate Spirit Bones. Therefore, absorbing an External Spirit Bone required first destroying the original human bone and then replacing it with the External Spirit Bone.

As a result, one would suffer intense pain, which greatly tested a person's endurance.

In other words, if Lin Yan wanted to absorb this Titan Giant Ape Right Palm Bone, he had to endure the agony of shattered bones!

When a wave of pain struck, cold sweat instantly appeared on Lin Yan's forehead, and his body began trembling uncontrollably.

What relieved Lin Yan was that, while he endured the pain, his second martial spirit suddenly reacted and eased his suffering.

An hour later, Lin Yan finally fused perfectly with the Titan Giant Ape Right Palm Bone.

With that, his spirit power directly rose to level twenty-three!

Huff—

Lin Yan opened his eyes and exhaled a breath of turbid air.

The next moment, he immediately raised his right hand and looked at his palm.

At this moment, an External Spirit Bone already existed within that palm.

Lin Yan slowly clenched his hand. Sure enough, he sensed that the strength of his entire arm had increased considerably, clearly making it thirty percent stronger than his left arm.

He summoned his martial spirit.

The Black Demon Mace martial spirit now weighed around two hundred jin to him, its owner. Against enemies, however, its weight had risen from six hundred jin to nine hundred jin. It was almost no less heavy than Tang Tian's Clear Sky Hammer after two Spirit Rings had been attached.

Yet in his hand, it was as light as nothing. He could wield it however he pleased without feeling the slightest strain.

This was the change in strength brought to him by the Titan Giant Ape Spirit Ring and Spirit Bone.

Lin Yuhuan asked, "Lin Yan, what kind of spirit skill did this Palm Bone give you?"

Lin Yan replied, "Grandma, it's a domain-type spirit skill called Gravity Domain."

"A domain spirit skill?"

Lin Yuhuan's expression changed in shock.

Even for Titled Douluo powerhouses, domain-type spirit skills were extremely important.

However, domain-type spirit skills had an extremely low chance of appearing.

In theory, only Hundred-Thousand-Year Spirit Rings and Hundred-Thousand-Year Spirit Bones were guaranteed to produce domain-type spirit skills.

Therefore, very few Soul Masters possessed domain-type spirit skills. Even Lin Yuhuan herself did not have one.

Compared to Lin Yuhuan, Lin Yan was not quite so surprised.

Because he vaguely remembered that in the original story, after the Hundred-Thousand-Year Titan Giant Ape Er Ming sacrificed himself to Tang San, he had also given him a domain-type spirit skill—the very same Gravity Domain.

Lin Yuhuan looked at Lin Yan with a complicated expression.

There was even a faint trace of envy in her eyes.

"Grandma, why are you looking at me like that?"

Lin Yan found Lin Yuhuan's gaze rather strange.

Lin Yuhuan sighed. "Your luck is truly incredible, kid! A powerful mutated martial spirit, extraordinary spiritual power, and a mutated physique."

"While the first and second spirit skills of other Soul Masters are merely transitional, you obtained two divine skills that can benefit you for life. And now you have gained an External Spirit Bone with a domain spirit skill."

As she spoke, Lin Yuhuan could not help but sigh.

Even she, a Titled Douluo, was somewhat envious of all the advantages Lin Yan possessed.

He was like a chosen child of fate, born at the right time. Luck always accompanied him, and he was destined to become a powerhouse!

Hearing that, Lin Yan chuckled awkwardly.

Lin Yuhuan seriously instructed him, "Even if your conditions are good, that only means your starting point is higher than others'. You still cannot relax or become careless in your future cultivation. Otherwise, others will surely surpass you. Do you understand?"

"I understand, Grandma!" Lin Yan nodded seriously.

Having successfully completed their mission, the group returned along the same route by carriage.

Lin Yan came to the carriage Lin Yuhuan was riding in. "Grandma, did you want to see me about something?"

Lin Yuhuan asked, "Tell me about that move you used to defeat Tang Tian. What was it? Could it be that you have a Spirit Bone I don't know about?"

Lin Yan froze slightly, then frowned as well.

After using that move that day, he had slept for an entire day and night. Then he had been busy absorbing the Spirit Ring and Spirit Bone, leaving him no time to consider the matter.

Now that Lin Yuhuan had brought it up, his heart was also filled with doubt...
