Soul Bone! Desolation-Suppressing Prison Hou Chest Armor Bone, Ten-Thousand-Prison Sunken Ruins!

Ning Chengyi glanced at Dugu Bo, who immediately understood and became alert.

The Soul Ring slowly entered his body.

This Soul Ring was absorbed without any violent force. Although it was said to be 90,000 years old, it did not have any violent Soul Power at all. Instead, it carried a Sisi of gentleness.

The dark Golden Soul Ring slowly sank beneath Ning Chengyi's feet, and the position of the fifth Soul Ring suddenly lit up.

He sat cross-legged, his Soul Power surging like a tide.

The Desolation-Suppressing God-Breaking Spear was now held horizontally in front of his knees, its shaft humming as if resonating with the new Soul Ring.

Dark gold lightning patterns overflowed from the Soul Ring, coursing through the meridians throughout the body, with every inch of flesh greedily devouring this immense power.

Dugu Yan held her breath, her hands clenched so tightly they turned white.

She had never seen the process of absorbing Soul Ring so "quietly".

There was no painful struggle, no outburst of Soul Power, and Ning Chengyi's expression didn't even change much, as if this 90,000-year Soul Ring was rightfully his.

"This..." She turned to look at her grandfather, her eyes filled with disbelief, "Grandpa, how could he..."

Dugu Bo did not answer immediately.

He stared at Ning Chengyi, his cloudy old eyes swirling with complex emotions.

Having lived most of his life, he had seen too many Soul Masters suffer terribly when absorbing Soul Rings. Even Thousand-Year Soul Ring was enough to make Soul Master at the Soul Ancestor level suffer greatly.

But this young man absorbed a 90,000-year-old Soul Ring as naturally as drinking water.

"His physical body..." Dugu Bo murmured, his voice filled with disbelief, "Is already strong enough to withstand the erosion of 90,000 years of Soul Power."

He paused, then added:

"Moreover, the Soul Power attribute of this Desolation-Suppressing Prison Hou is... a perfect match for his spear."

Dugu Yan nodded as if she understood, then her gaze returned to Ning Chengyi, her eyes filled with admiration and a flutter of affection that she herself was unwilling to admit.

She was aware of Ning Chengyi's arduous cultivation.

Dugu Yan has witnessed the effects of her cultivation over the past few years, and it is truly remarkable that she has achieved such results.

How did this young man manage to endure all that?

Dugu Yan blinked, her beautiful eyes filled with curiosity.

About half an hour later, Ning Chengyi slowly opened his eyes.

His fifth Soul Ring, black with golden hair, hovered silently beneath his feet, radiating a chilling aura.

He stood up, stretched his limbs, and felt his Soul Power surging like a river, much stronger than before his breakthrough.

Level 53!

This breakthrough was even more perfect than he had anticipated.

Originally, I thought that with the enhancement of my physical body, I could only break through to level 52 at most, but unexpectedly, I increased by three levels.

It seems that even though the Desolation-Suppressing Prison Hou's lifespan was increased by taking drugs, its own foundation is not weak, which is why it has such an effect.

He clenched his fist, feeling the surge of power, and a smile crept onto his lips.

Just then, the corpse of the Desolation-Suppressing Prison Hou suddenly trembled slightly.

A dark golden light emerged from its chest and slowly rose.

"Soul Bone!" Dugu Yan exclaimed in shock, her green eyes wide open.

Although she had a grandfather who was Titled Douluo, she had never seen Soul Bone in person.

This thing is extremely rare; even the Heaven Dou Imperial Family has only a handful of Soul Bones in their collection.

Dugu Bo's pupils contracted sharply, his cloudy old eyes lit up instantly, and he took a step forward.

"A 90,000-year-old Soul Beast... and it even produced Soul Bone?" He murmured, his voice filled with undisguised shock. "I've hunted Soul Beasts my whole life, and the chance of seeing Ten-Thousand-Year Soul Beast produce Soul Bone is less than one percent. A 90,000-year-old... this luck is simply heaven-defying!"

Having lived most of his life, he knew that the value of Soul Bone far exceeded that of Soul Ring.

Soul Rings can be hunted, but Soul Bones are rare and hard to come by.

Many Titled Douluo have spent their entire lives trying to collect a complete set of six Soul Bones.

The young man before them, on his first attempt to acquire his fifth Soul Ring, simultaneously obtained a 90,000-year Soul Ring and Soul Bone.

Such an opportunity is so extraordinary that probably no one would believe it if I told them.

It was a Soul Bone shaped like a breastplate, dark gold in color, with ancient and intricate wild patterns covering its surface, and faint fluctuations of gravity emanating from it.

It hovered in mid-air, seemingly searching for a new owner.

Looking at the Soul Bone, which resembled a small mountain, he was startled; it was much larger than the skull.

Upon seeing this, Ning Chengyi waved his right hand, drawing his Soul Power towards the Soul Bone, which shrank accordingly.

The moment the Soul Bone entered his body, Ning Chengyi felt a heaviness in his chest, as if a mountain was pressing down on him.

He groaned, sat down cross-legged, and focused all his energy on channeling his Soul Power.

Dark purple light gathered at his chest, gradually transforming into the phantom of an ancient breastplate.

The armor surface was covered with dense, wild patterns, each pattern seemingly bearing immense weight, heavy and majestic.

But the next second, the heaviness dissipated, as if this Soul Bone had been his from birth.

The dark gold wild patterns spread across his chest, subtly echoing the lightning patterns on the Desolation-Suppressing God-Breaking Spear.

He felt a steady and profound power take root in his chest, as if the weight of the entire earth was connected to him.

This is the effect of absorbing the Soul Ring of the Desolation-Suppressing Prison Hou.

The two are inherently one, so the Soul Bone presupposes that Ning Chengyi is the original body.

There was absolutely no resistance whatsoever.

Before long, the Soul Bone completely merged into his body.

As soon as Ning Chengyi woke up, Dugu Bo immediately leaned closer and asked, "What were the effects?"

Ning Chengyi slowly raised his hand, palm down.

Centered on him, the air within a radius of thirty feet suddenly became heavy, and the ground sank slightly, as if an invisible giant beast was looking down on this area.

"Active Soul Skill: Ten-Thousand-Prison Sunken Ruins... gathers the gravitational magnetic field, compressing a thirty-zhang range to ten zhang, causing a surge in gravity within the domain, forming a gravity cage." He paused, the desolate runes on his chest glowing faintly, "When the desolate runes on the chest armor are activated, a portion of the impact force can be converted into gravitational shockwaves, returning them to the opponent."

Dugu Bo gasped.

Gravity cage? Counter-vibration?

This Soul Bone Skill is practically tailor-made for his spear!

Ning Chengyi continued, "There's also a passive effect... Expanding the range of the gravitational magnetic field by ten zhang greatly reduces the weight consumption of the spear."

He gripped the Desolation-Suppressing God-Breaking Spear tightly; the spear trembled slightly, as if responding to its master's will.

Especially with the enhancement of the fifth Soul Skill, he originally planned to adapt, but unexpectedly, this Soul Bone brought him a pleasant surprise.

Previously, when Mystic Edge, Leveling Mountains, the weight of the 1,500-jin spear had already taken a toll on him. Now, with the passive enhancement of this Soul Bone, the Soul Power consumption to maintain the weight of the spear has dropped sharply. This means that he can use the spear technique for a longer period of time, and his endurance has been greatly improved.

Furthermore, the active skill "Ten-Thousand-Prison Sunken Ruins" of his Soul Skill Soul Bone further elevates his crowd control abilities to new heights.

The gravity cage, combined with the Phantom Spear Strangulation, means that once an enemy is pulled within ten zhang (approximately 33 meters), not only is their movement restricted, but they also have to endure the gravitational backlash, making it an absolute killing situation.

"Good lad..." Dugu Bo couldn't help but exclaim in admiration, "This Soul Bone is even more precious than your fifth Soul Ring."

Ning Chengyi smiled but didn't say anything.

He knew that the value of this Soul Bone was far greater than that.

It perfectly matches the Desolation-Suppressing God-Breaking Spear, his arduous physical training, and his fighting style.

"Let's go." He sheathed his spear. "Let's go back."

What is your fifth Soul Skill?

Seeing Ning Chengyi's happy expression, Dugu Yan asked with curiosity.

Fifth Soul Skill: Desolation-Suppressing Vaulted Prison!
