Shui Bing'er asked curiously, "Sister Yunxiang, does your sixth Soul Skill copy the Soul Bone Skill of blood Soul Master?"

Yunxiang shook her head and said firmly, "No."

An Jun said, "Soul Bone are not a product of the Soul Master themselves, so it's normal that they can't be copied. Just the fact that a single Soul Skill can copy the abilities of all Soul Master is already quite powerful. If it could also copy the Soul Bone Skill of the opponent, that would be too overpowered."

While everyone was chatting, Huo Lei's excited voice rang out, "Everyone come quick, another Soul Bone has appeared!"

Huo Lei's voice wasn't loud, but to everyone's ears, it sounded like a depth charge exploding in the water. The five people chatting nearby shuddered and immediately surrounded Huo Lei.

Huo Lei held a crystal-clear Skull in his palm, capable of reflecting light. The entire Skull seemed to be made of mirror, shimmering with a mesmerizing silver luster under external light.

Everyone wore expressions of joy. Jin Shan and An Jun remained relatively calm, Shui Bing'er looked composed, and Xue Wu Wu's eyes sparkled with envy. Yunxiang's expression was the most exaggerated; her beautiful eyes were wide open, radiating a mesmerizing light, and she covered her agape mouth with both hands, looking utterly incredulous.

"Yunxiang, how's it going? You got the Soul Bone, right? Now you believe me, right?" Huo Lei held the Soul Bone, looking at Yunxiang was lost in the Soul Bone's light, and said smugly.

Yunxiang nodded unconsciously.

"Take it! This Mirror Shadow Beast Head Soul Bone is yours." Huo Lei said, handing the Soul Bone to Yunxiang.

"Thank you! Thank you!" Yunxiang thanked Huo Lei excitedly and accepted the Soul Bone with her trembling hands.

Looking at Yunxiang, who was completely entranced, An Jun asked, "Yunxiang, it's getting dark. Do you want to absorb this Soul Bone now, or after we return to Iceforest City?"

"Ah! Oh! Senior An Jun, I want to absorb this Soul Bone right now." Yunxiang snapped out of her daze and responded to An Jun.

An Jun said, "Then hurry up and absorb it! Once you're done, we can head back to Iceforest City."

Yunxiang nodded, then sat cross-legged, closed her eyes, and circulated her Soul Power into meditation. A faint silver light was released from the Mirror Shadow Beast Skull, and with a soft bang, the entire Soul Bone transformed into a cloud of silver energy, which rapidly flowed into Yunxiang's seven orifices.

Everyone stepped back and became alert, protecting Yunxiang.

Huo Lei, standing beside Yunxiang, let out a long sigh. The appearance of the Mirror Shadow Beast Skull confirmed to him that the Mirror Shadow Beast lying on the ground was the one Oscar hunted in the original story. A weight was lifted from his heart. Now he had obtained the Mirror Shadow Beast's Soul Ring and Soul Bone, and also gained a powerful ally, which was a double win.

It was already past midnight when everyone returned to Iceforest City. They all went back to their rooms to rest.

After absorbing the Mirror Image Skull, Yunxiang did not take the Mirror Shadow Beast's body, but instead gave it to Huo Lei as a gift of gratitude.

The next morning, Huo Lei and his group of six had breakfast together. During the meal, Yunxiang shared her Head Soul Bone Skill with everyone.

The Head Soul Bone of the Mirror Shadow Beast greatly enhanced Yunxiang's spiritual power and also granted her a very useful skill: to create a Doppelganger that could unleash 80% of her own strength. The Doppelganger's duration was a fixed one minute, and it could be used continuously when her Soul Power was abundant.

Everyone was astonished upon hearing this. At the same time, Xue Wu also explained her own situation: her Soul Power had reached its peak at level 59, and she might break through to Level 60 in a short time. After learning about Xue Wu's situation, everyone decided to wait until they had attached the Sixth Soul Ring to Xue Wu before heading to the Far North to find the Ninth Soul Ring for An Jun.

After breakfast, everyone parted ways to attend to their own affairs.

Xue Wu, without hesitation, went straight back to her room to cultivate, hoping to break through to Level 60 as soon as possible.

An Jun, on the other hand, went to catch up with an old friend he hadn't seen in four years in Iceforest City.

Shui Bing'er and Yunxiang both obtained the Soul Ring and Soul Bone they wanted, reaching Level 62. Overjoyed, they decided to relax and went shopping together in Iceforest City.

Huo Lei accepted the invitations from the two women, but he refused them outright. His reason was quite plausible: to find Soul Bone for Xue Wu. But only he knew that this was merely an excuse; the real reason was known only to himself.

After Huo Lei and the two women parted ways at the Marquis's mansion gate, he headed straight for the Iceforest City.

Huo Lei had barely stepped out of the north gate when Jin Shan's voice rang in his ears. "You brat, did you really enter the Frozen Forest just to find Soul Bone for Xue Wu?"

Huo Lei looked around but didn't find Jin Shan, so he stopped searching and softly replied to the air in front of him, "This is only one of them. This disciple has something more important to do."

"Oh! Go. Your master will protect you from the shadows. If you are no match for him, your master will intervene." Jin Shan's voice rang in Huo Lei's ears again.

"Thank you, teacher." Huo Lei thanked the air and walked into the Frozen Forest.

After traveling one kilometer, Huo Lei released his External Soul Bone Thunder Wings, and with a flap of his wings, he flew directly into the air ahead.

Four years have passed, and Lei Yi has been greatly improved under the nurturing of fire, thunder, and lightning soul power, reaching a level of over 40,000 years from the initial 20,000 years. Both his speed and attack power have been greatly enhanced.

Huo Lei flapped his Thunder Wings and sped through the air, while his golden eyes shone brightly, a sign that he had activated his Fiery Golden Eyes of Truth.

"Now that we're in the Frozen Forest, we should definitely greet the Hao Te Mercenary Team, then eliminate them without anyone noticing, so no one will suspect me. According to the original novel, the Hao Te Mercenary Team consists of fifteen people, but only Hao Te himself has reached the Soul Sage Realm; the rest are Soul Emperor and Soul King. Given their strength, their area of operation wouldn't exceed the range where 30,000-year-old Soul Beast roam. After all, the book describes how they were injured even when fighting a Twenty-Thousand-Year -old Mirror Shadow Beast. Eliminating such a group is child's play. I'll make you all die because of your own greed, using a strategy of waiting for your prey to come to you."

Huo Lei flew through the air, probing and pondering, a smug smile on its face.

Huo Lei quickly flew to the area where the Ten-Thousand-Year Soul Beast was found.

Huo Lei descended from the sky to the ground, retracted his Thunder Wings, and muttered to himself, "Since it's about waiting for a rabbit to come to the tree stump, we need to prepare the 'stump' first, and then the 'rabbit' will come knocking."

As Huo Lei walked forward, he muttered to himself, "Xue Wu's first four Soul Skill are too weak. If it weren't for the fact that she could use her Martial Soul Fusion Skill with Shui Bing'er, it would be a complete waste of her Soul Ring slot. Fortunately, her fifth Soul Skill has some offensive capabilities. When she adds her Sixth Soul Ring, she'll need to add a Soul Skill with self-defense capabilities, otherwise, she'll be too useless. What she needs most right now is attack, defense, and speed. Let's find Soul Bone for her that focus on these three aspects! Brother Wushuang, I, as her younger brother, have done my best."
