Great Sage Remnant Body Leg

Wang Tianyi looked at the four options laid out before him. The system's arrival had come at just the right time. The Ten-Thousand-Year Blue Silver Emperor Soul Bone was certainly precious, but unfortunately, the two Transcendent God-Tier Martial Souls within him did not seem interested.

What he needed to consider now was which Soul Bone to choose.

"Two Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Bones, though both are leg bones, and two Eighty-Thousand-Year Soul Bones, one torso and one head..."

Wang Tianyi plopped down on Tang Hao and began to ponder.

First, he could discard the eighty-thousand-year torso Soul Bone outright. Its age was too low, and while torso Soul Bones were precious, they could not compare to head Soul Bones! The next thing Wang Tianyi discarded was the eighty-thousand-year head Soul Bone. He had already transmigrated—how could he have no ambition? An eighty-thousand-year Soul Bone could never satisfy him. If he was going to absorb one, it had to be a hundred-thousand-year one! That meant two Soul Skills, and the power contained within a Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Bone would also be enough to rapidly raise his cultivation.

"Heaven-Equaling left leg and Six Ears right leg..."

It truly was a difficult choice. The quality of the two Soul Bones should have been nearly identical, but the first thing Wang Tianyi needed to consider was the balance between his two super Martial Souls.

As he thought, a wave of Soul Power suddenly radiated from above his head.

"External Soul Bone, Sage's Golden Headband!"

This was Wang Tianyi's first time revealing his External Soul Bone, one bestowed by the system. Though its age was low, its quality was exceptionally high!

"System, system, it seems you never gave me much of a choice!"

Wang Tianyi gave a bitter smile, then decisively chose the first option: the Hundred-Thousand-Year right leg bone compatible with the Qi Tian Martial Soul! The reason was simple. His External Soul Bone, the Sage's Golden Headband, possessed one active skill and one passive skill. Setting the active skill aside for now, what Wang Tianyi valued most was this Soul Bone's passive skill: Yin-Yang!

This passive Soul Skill could bring the two Transcendent God-Tier Martial Souls within Wang Tianyi into balance. It was simply perfect for him. Moreover, the golden headband was originally meant to restrain the Great Sage, and this External Soul Bone possessed the same ability. Absorbing a Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Bone compatible with the Qi Tian Martial Soul would undoubtedly strengthen Qi Tian, but with this External Soul Bone present, the degree of Qi Tian's growth would become controllable, minimizing its negative impact on him.

As Wang Tianyi's words fell, a glittering golden left leg bone appeared in his hand. It looked as though it had been forged from colored glaze, surrounded by auspicious clouds and purple mist. This Soul Bone was remarkably complete, extending from thigh to shin. The instant it appeared, the light it emitted illuminated the dark cave as brightly as day. Even a blind man could tell that this Soul Bone was no ordinary treasure!

[Congratulations, Host, for obtaining the Hundred-Thousand-Year Great Sage Remnant Body Leg Soul Bone! Would you like the system to assist you in fusing it?]

The system was quite considerate, and Wang Tianyi was very satisfied. Yet he did not respond immediately. Instead, he excitedly examined the Soul Bone in his hand. It gave him a feeling of shared existence, as though it were a bone that had been stripped from his own body and was now finally returned. Even the Qi Tian Martial Soul within him was rejoicing!

"It truly is extraordinary quality! System, assist me in fusing this Soul Bone!"

Wang Tianyi took a deep breath. After playing with it for ten minutes, he finally decided to fuse the Soul Bone! The seven levels of Soul Power within him began to communicate with it. As though it had found its true home, the Soul Bone eagerly and voluntarily adhered to his left leg. A powerful, domineering force surged into Wang Tianyi's body, yet it did not cause him any pain. This Soul Bone was one hundred percent compatible with him. One had to know that even when Tang San absorbed Ah Yin's Soul Bone, their compatibility could never have reached one hundred percent.

The system did not seem to have exerted any power, at least that was what Wang Tianyi thought. But when he opened his eyes again, sunlight was already streaming down through the opening above, and the air was filled with a sacred aura. Wang Tianyi was ecstatic. He carefully sensed the aura of Soul Power within his body, then froze completely.

"What? Why am I only level nineteen? System, get out here! My Soul Power had already reached level 16.5 before. After swallowing a Ten-Thousand-Year Blue Silver Emperor and adding a Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Bone, how could my Soul Power have only risen by 2.5 levels? Speak! Did you skim a cut off the top? And what, do you have some kind of obsession with the number 2.5? Fragrant wings with rice, is that it?"

Wang Tianyi cursed under his breath. With his current Soul Power Level, even if he had fused only a Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Bone, his Soul Power cultivation should definitely have reached level twenty! A Blue Silver Emperor that had already become Immortal-grade Herbs, combined with a top-quality Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Bone, had only raised him by 2.5 levels? Who was he trying to fool? He was in an incredibly foul mood!

What is it, youngster? This Old Sun took some power, and you are very unhappy about it?

A voice rang through Wang Tianyi's mind, but it was not the familiar electronic voice of the system. Instead, it was an unruly voice seemingly filled with boundless pride, a voice that even the gods and Buddhas filling the heavens could not restrain!

"Great Sage?"

Wang Tianyi froze. Then he felt the world spin around him, and in an instant, his entire body was pulled into the Spiritual Sea!

It was rather ridiculous. Since obtaining the Spiritual Sea, this was only the second time he had entered it. The last time, he had merely witnessed the battle between two divine monkeys before being kicked out the next second. It was simply outrageous. It was his own body—could he not even make decisions for himself?

But though he was unhappy, his body was honest. Wang Tianyi remembered the words of those two divine monkeys and had never again entered the Spiritual Sea of his own accord. Today, he had been forced in...

Youngster, it has been a long time!

Wang Tianyi, sinking into the Spiritual Sea, opened his eyes and saw a divine monkey born of Heaven and Earth! That majestic appearance belonged unmistakably to the legendary Heaven-Equaling Great Sage!

Then...

Wang Tianyi, who had always thought highly of himself and possessed great pride, became incomparably restrained, as though he had just met his idol.

The Heaven-Equaling Great Sage's charisma was something no man could resist!

Relax. This is your body, after all! Are you worried that This Old Sun will eat you?

Perhaps because of the trust he held for the Heaven-Equaling Great Sage deep in his bones, Wang Tianyi's body actually relaxed. He took a deep breath and met the Great Sage's gaze. Only then did he clearly see what this divine monkey of legend truly looked like.

The Great Sage could not exactly be called handsome. If anything, he looked somewhat fierce. Considering his origins as a demon king, that was only natural. Yet his face inspired no fear. Combined with his armor and the aura around him, Wang Tianyi felt that if heroes truly existed in this world, they should look like this!

"Hmph! You two are having quite the cheerful conversation! Boy, why did you not choose this Perfected Lord's bone?"

If the Great Sage's voice gave people a sense of reassurance, then this voice inspired fear!

Wang Tianyi shuddered and turned his head, only to discover that this Six-Eared Perfected Lord looked somewhat disheveled at the moment...

As though he had been beaten up...
