Related to the Evil Eye Tyrant Lord

Zang Xin did not deny it.

He smiled faintly and admitted it openly.

"Correct."

"What, Tower Master Qian Gu? Can't bear to part with it?"

Cao Xin was his son...

Naturally, he wanted to give him the very best.

Thus, from the moment he learned that the guardian of the Junior Spirit Ascension Platform at the Spirit Pagoda headquarters was an Evil Eye Tyrant...

He had made up his mind.

The rarity of an Eye-Pupil External Soul Bone was such that there were only a few on the entire continent. Since there was one here, he had to obtain it for Little Xin no matter what.

He had even come personally to oversee matters...

To prevent the Spirit Pagoda from going back on its word.

After all, he was personally present.

No matter how many schemes Qian Gu Dongfeng had in mind, he could not make any overly outrageous moves in the open.

After all, some things always required more restraint when done in front of the person involved.

The Spirit Pagoda had once declared that whoever defeated one of its guardians could absorb that guardian's Soul Bone, and they would not interfere.

This had been a publicly announced rule ever since the Spirit Pagoda established the Ascension Platform.

Its purpose was to attract talented individuals from all sides to come and train.

At the same time, it demonstrated the Spirit Pagoda's magnanimity and bearing.

This rule had stood for many years and had never been broken, but it had always been there.

But words were one thing...

This External Soul Bone was simply too precious.

Zang Xin knew that when the Spirit Pagoda had established this rule, they probably had not expected anyone to truly set their sights on this Evil Eye Tyrant's External Soul Bone.

After all, the Evil Eye Tyrant Race was an extremely rare type of spiritual Soul Beast, born with tremendously powerful spiritual strength.

Ordinary Soul Masters, even gifted ones, would find it difficult to defeat one.

After all, spiritual attacks were impossible to guard against.

Moreover, spiritual Soul Beasts were rare to begin with.

But were Soul Masters with spiritual Martial Souls not rare as well?

Soul Masters who were both geniuses and possessed spiritual Martial Souls were even fewer and farther between.

Of course, he happened to be one of them.

That was why he had the confidence to send Little Xin here and claim this External Soul Bone.

And it was precisely because this Soul Bone was so valuable.

That it would be understandable if the Spirit Pagoda truly did not wish to part with it.

After all, the value of an External Soul Bone...

Was not something even a colossal force like the Spirit Pagoda could casually give up.

If Qian Gu Dongfeng made excuses to refuse...

Zang Xin would not be unable to understand.

But for Little Xin's future...

They had to obtain it.

At that moment, Zang Xin's gaze narrowed slightly.

Both Cao Dezhi and he had poured all their effort and expectations into this child's growth.

Obtaining an Eye-Pupil External Soul Bone at the very beginning would bring immeasurable benefits to Cao Xin's future spiritual strength and Martial Soul development.

As for their future cooperation with the Spirit Pagoda...

He would also take the initiative to yield ten percent of the profits.

That way, they would not damage everyone's goodwill.

Zang Xin had already calculated the extent of the concession he was willing to make.

The Tang Sect and the Spirit Pagoda had long maintained deep cooperation in Soul Spirit trading and resource sharing.

Yielding ten percent of the profits was no small amount...

But it would not hurt them too badly, and using it to exchange for this Soul Bone would be fair and reasonable.

After all, over the past ten thousand years, Shrek Academy, the Tang Sect, and the Spirit Pagoda had supported one another like horns.

The three great powers stood together on the continent, their cooperative relationship spanning more than ten thousand years as they jointly upheld the backbone of the human Soul Master world.

But because of the matter involving Long Yeyue...

The Spirit Pagoda and Shrek Academy had broken apart.

That slap had shattered not only the friendship between Qian Gu Dieting and Old Bei, but also the foundation of trust that had been sustained between the two great powers for ten thousand years.

The relationship between Shrek and the Spirit Pagoda had fallen to freezing point.

And caught between them, the Tang Sect had become the only bridge able to maintain contact with both sides.

This had made everyone somewhat more hypocritical.

Zang Xin sighed softly in his heart.

Yet he still maintained a gentle smile on his face.

Upon hearing this, Qian Gu Dongfeng shook his head.

As he looked at Zang Xin, there was no evasion in his expression. Instead, there was a hint of helpless candor.

"External Soul Bones are precious. Even we do not have much in reserve."

"And most Ascension Platform guardians possess one of the six great Soul Bones."

"Among them, the four types from the left and right hands and feet are the most common, followed by torso bones and helmet Soul Bones."

"There are only two External Soul Bones."

"One is this Evil Eye Tyrant at the headquarters, and the other is the Darkgolden Terrorclaw Bear over in Eastsea City."

"But the Darkgolden Terrorclaw Bear's External Soul Bone is a Right Palm External Soul Bone. Soul Masters without beast-type Martial Souls generally have no use for it."

"But the Evil Eye Tyrant is different."

"Eye-Pupil Soul Bones can enhance spiritual strength."

"And Soul Masters of our era place tremendous importance on spiritual strength."

"Doesn't Gate Master Zang find it strange..."

"Why we have not absorbed it?"

As Qian Gu Dongfeng spoke, he paused and looked meaningfully at Zang Xin.

Zang Xin's expression changed instantly.

He looked at Qian Gu Dongfeng, his gaze cold as frost.

"What do you mean?"

"Tower Master Qian Gu, if Little Xin is harmed, I cannot guarantee that Wuqing will not come here personally."

No one understood Cao Dezhi's temperament better than he did.

Normally, he was calm and stern while stationed at the frontier with the Blood God Legion, but once anything involved him or Cao Xin...

He had never been one to stand on ceremony.

But Zang Xin could not be blamed for being angry.

You set the rule yourselves: whoever killed the guardian could absorb the Soul Bone.

And then, just to prevent anyone from truly obtaining the Soul Bone...

You set up a Soul Bone that could not be absorbed.

Then he could not be blamed for abandoning all courtesy.

Qian Gu Dongfeng's eyes twitched as well.

Cao Dezhi was a Peak Quasi-God.

If someone of that level truly became enraged, the entire Spirit Pagoda headquarters might be overturned.

He had already suffered a huge loss in his relationship with Shrek Academy, and he had no desire to offend another Peak Quasi-God.

Thus, he hurriedly waved his hand and added.

"Gate Master Zang, do not panic."

"No one has ever absorbed this Evil Eye Tyrant's External Soul Bone mainly because its quality is too high."

"Because the source of this Soul Bone was a direct descendant of that former Evil Eye Tyrant Lord."

"This External Soul Bone also contains a trace of that Evil Eye Tyrant Lord's spiritual power."

"Therefore, to absorb it, one must first eliminate that trace of spiritual power."

"But it is, after all, the spiritual power of the Evil Eye Tyrant Lord. Even if it is only a trace..."

"It is not something the Spirit Abyss Realm can contend against."

"Although spiritual strength at the Spirit Domain Realm can slowly wear it away."

"But once one has reached the Spirit Domain Realm..."

"There is naturally no longer any need for this External Soul Bone."

Seeing this, Zang Xin took a deep breath.

Although his expression remained tense.

The sharpness in his eyes had lessened somewhat.

He pondered for a moment, his gaze pausing briefly on the small figure on the screen.

"I want to speak with Little Xin."

Qian Gu Dongfeng nodded upon hearing this.

Without the slightest hesitation, he immediately turned and instructed the Spirit Pagoda disciple beside the control console to activate the soul-guided communicator.
