It was perfectly normal for a Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Beast to yield a spirit bone.
However, hunting a Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Beast was an incredibly difficult task.
Dugu Bo removed the spirit bone from the Sky-Breaking Dragon's body. It turned out to be a right arm bone.
The Heaven-Breaking Dragon Right Arm Bone shimmered with emerald-green light.
Naturally, Dugu Bo could not bear to put it down, but he knew that he would never have achieved what he had today without Su Mu's help.
"Your Highness Su Mu, please accept this spirit bone."
Dugu Bo stepped before Su Mu and respectfully offered up the Heaven-Breaking Dragon Right Arm Bone with both hands.
"Dugu Bo, I have no use for the spirit bone. Keep it and absorb it yourself.
"It will greatly improve your strength. I also know what you are thinking, so there is no need to say more."
Su Mu patted Dugu Bo on the shoulder.
Dugu Bo's heart skipped a beat.
He had never expected Su Mu to refuse.
A Hundred Thousand Year Soul Bone was incomparably precious, something countless people dreamed of obtaining. Yet Su Mu had rejected it so easily.
"Poison Old Man, stop refusing. Xiao Mu is right; it will greatly improve your strength.
"Since Xiao Mu has said so, just make sure you serve him well from now on."
Yue Guan walked over. Seeing Dugu Bo hesitating like that, he practically wanted to kick him.
"Thank you, Your Highness." Dugu Bo clasped his fists in gratitude.
Su Mu then looked at Yue Guan and Gui Mei beside him. "Handle any soul rings and spirit bones you obtain yourselves. There is no need to give them to me."
"Xiao Mu, the improvement in my martial soul's quality is inseparable from your help." Yue Guan raised a brow and smiled. "You should take the Hundred Thousand Year Soul Bone and absorb it."
"Indeed," Gui Mei echoed.
If he added their two Hundred Thousand Year Soul Bones to the mix, Su Mu, who had no combat ability, would undoubtedly see a tremendous increase in strength.
Naturally, they did not know that Su Mu possessed the Destruction Angel and a Divine Throne Inheritance.
"Uncle Yue, Uncle Gui, I still say the same thing. Handle them yourselves; I do not need them for now."
Su Mu remained as calm as ever. His gentle, spring-breeze-like smile kept the two from asking further.
As for Su Mu not needing spirit bones, all they could do was try their best to repay him.
"If I were a woman, I would definitely marry Xiao Mu."
Yue Guan sighed emotionally.
Only then could he truly repay him.
"Oh, give it a rest."
Gui Mei immediately scoffed at those words.
"Stop dreaming. You are not worthy of Xiao Mu."
Yue Guan's face darkened. "Old Ghost, I've noticed that you're starting to talk more too."
"Yue Guan, I simply dislike talking. It does not mean I cannot talk." Gui Mei rolled his eyes. He was usually quiet, but that did not mean he had nothing to say.
Soon afterward, the two came before Dugu Bo.
At that moment, Dugu Bo had already drawn the soul ring toward himself and entered the absorption state.
If anyone had asked them before, they would never have dreamed that one day, they would be in the same place as Dugu Bo, absorbing Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Rings together. It felt unbelievable just thinking about it.
"Little Mu-Mu, you do not even want a Hundred Thousand Year Soul Bone. Big Sister Life really cannot understand you, though these people are indeed very loyal to you."
After Yue Guan and Gui Mei left,
the Life Goddess, who had been silent for some time, spoke again.
"Senior Life, I have my own plans. Also, could you stop calling me Little Mu-Mu?" Su Mu decisively protested against the Life Goddess's form of address. Little Mu-Mu was far too mushy, and she was a God King who had lived for so long.
"That will not do. Little Mu-Mu sounds so nice. I am going to call you that." The Life Goddess firmly refused, her domineering voice exceptionally forceful.
"Senior Life, I'm going to complain to Senior Destruction."
Su Mu threatened her.
The Life Goddess burst into laughter. "I thought you were going to say something serious, but this? Xiao Zi cannot control me at all. He spends every day busy with his own matters."
"Senior Life really is willful." Su Mu had no way to deal with the Life Goddess, but as long as she was around, he could ask her to resolve any trouble he encountered. She could be considered a hidden reserve of backup power.
"Senior Brother, what soul beast do you think I should hunt for my fifth soul ring?"
Bibi Dong had sat beneath a tree and pondered for a long time before deciding to ask her senior brother.
Just having her senior brother standing there made her feel safe.
"You have not even broken through to Soul King yet, and you are already thinking about your fifth soul ring?"
Su Mu tapped Bibi Dong on the head.
Bibi Dong covered her head, yet she continued grinning.
"Senior Brother, isn't this just planning ahead? Besides, that voice told me to hunt a Dark Demon Evil God Tiger.
"I'm also curious what a Dark Demon Evil God Tiger looks like. If I successfully hunt one, will I really receive a god's inheritance?"
"The Dark Demon Evil God Tiger is an extremely evil soul beast that feeds by devouring. Even if you truly want to absorb one, it should be no sooner than your sixth soul ring."
Su Mu did not intend to let Bibi Dong take too great a risk.
"That will be soon. I feel that after eating two Immortal Herbs, my physique has become very strong." Bibi Dong clenched her tiny fists, brimming with confidence. "Strong enough to punch a cow to death."
Su Mu smiled helplessly. "You really are confident. All right, let us keep waiting for Dugu Bo to finish absorbing it. Senior Brother will help you accomplish it."
"Senior Brother is the best."
Bibi Dong laughed happily, wrapped her arm around Su Mu's, and walked to Dugu Bo's side.
Time passed in the blink of an eye. A day later,
a powerful aura shot straight into the clouds. Dugu Bo had finished absorbing his Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Ring and successfully entered the realm of Titled Douluo.
His cultivation continued to rise before finally settling at level ninety-two Titled Douluo.
The instant he broke through, Dugu Bo opened his eyes, and his entire body erupted with imposing force.
He was the only member of the Dugu Family to break through to Titled Douluo.
"Congratulations, Poison Old Man."
Yue Guan said with a smile.
Naturally, Yue Guan was happy that Dugu Bo had broken through to Titled Douluo.
Before, they had not been on the same side, so they certainly could not have gotten along.
Now that they were all one of their own, Yue Guan was sincerely happy for Dugu Bo.
"Yue Guan, did those congratulations come from the bottom of your heart?" Dugu Bo asked.
Yue Guan clicked his tongue twice. "Of course they did. What else did you think?"
"Forget Yue Guan for now, Dugu Bo. Hurry up and absorb the spirit bone." Gui Mei urged him from the side.
Dugu Bo no longer paid Yue Guan any attention. He pressed the spirit bone against his right arm and began absorbing it.
After spending some more time,
Dugu Bo successfully absorbed the spirit bone and advanced to level ninety-three.
Dugu Bo began examining his soul skills and spirit bone skills.
Ninth Soul Skill: Jade Scale Devours Heaven Unleashes a devastating torrent of dragon venom. The venom possesses both the Azure Dragon's domineering annihilating force and the corrosive toxicity of Jade Scale Poison. It can penetrate Soul Power defenses and dissolve soul skills. Ninth Soul Skill: Flood Dragon Emperor Domain Expands a thousand-meter poison domain. The domain is filled with Jade Scale Strange Poison mixed with dragon energy, continuously wearing down the enemy's Soul Power and vitality. His physical body is strengthened by the Flood Dragon's origin, doubling his strength and defense. All poison within the domain is under his control, while any residual poison inside an enemy's body can be directly detonated. It exerts especially powerful suppression against poison-type soul masters. Spirit Bone Skill: Dragon Scale Prison Suppression. His right arm is covered in dragon-scale armor, greatly enhancing his physical body and defensive power. Spirit Bone Skill: Tyrant Dragon Fist. He unleashes a dragon-shaped fist force with immense destructive power.
"Not bad at all."
Dugu Bo nodded in satisfaction.
Noticing that Su Mu was also present, he briefly explained his soul skills and spirit bone skills.
"Having reached level ninety-three, you have hope of entering the Worship Hall." Su Mu was very satisfied with Dugu Bo's improvement. In the future, paired with Yue Guan and Gui Mei, the three would make an excellent team.
