Third Soul Skill: Singular Velvet Sky Chrysanthemum-Titan Transformation! A Plan to Obtain the Blue Silver Emperor Right Leg Bone

Upon hearing Lin Hao's words...

Yu Yuanba recovered from his shock and forced a smile.

"That's right! Since you won your match against Tianjun..."

"We will honor our wager and accept defeat!"

With that, Yu Yuanba could only step forward, pull the injured Yu Tianjun up from the ground, and leave with his tail between his legs.

As he left, however, Yu Yuanba's heart was unusually heavy.

He had no idea which faction Lin Hao belonged to. A mere Soul Grandmaster, yet his strength was so terrifying that he could defeat their genius, Yu Tianjun, with a single punch.

Yu Tianjun was a level-fifty Quasi-Soul King!

Meanwhile, since Lin Hao could absorb this ten-thousand-year Titan Dragon Ape's Soul Ring, he should only have been a Level 30 Quasi-Soul Elder.

A Level 30 Quasi-Soul Elder could cross two major realms and crush a Quasi-Soul King?

If word got out, no one would dare believe it!

He had no idea whether this brat was merely a younger relative of Poison Douluo Dugu Bo...

Or whether he had ties to Spirit Hall...

After Yu Yuanba left with Yu Tianjun...

Lin Hao took out the Silver Dragon Spear again, walked up to the Titan Dragon Ape, and drove the spear through his skull, killing him outright.

Countless pitch-black motes of light streamed from the Titan Dragon Ape's corpse, slowly gathering above it into a pitch-black Ten Thousand Year Soul Ring!

With Dugu Bo standing guard...

Lin Hao sat cross-legged, extended his hand to summon his singular velvet sky chrysanthemum Martial Soul, then closed his eyes and began circulating his soul power to draw the Titan Dragon Ape's Soul Ring toward him.

The black Soul Ring slowly drifted over and settled around his singular velvet sky chrysanthemum Martial Soul.

In an instant, a violent, terrifying surge of soul power erupted from the Soul Ring, pouring madly into Lin Hao's body like floodwaters bursting through a dam.

This soul power seemed to carry the Titan Dragon Ape's domineering, savage will. It rampaged through Lin Hao's meridians as though intent on tearing his body apart.

Under the onslaught of this raging soul power, Lin Hao's copper skin and iron bones activated. A warm bronze sheen rapidly spread across his skin, his muscles tightened, and his veins bulged.

Though he endured excruciating pain, he relied on his copper skin and iron bones, honed through immortal herb refinement and Ice and Fire Body Tempering.

Gritting his teeth, Lin Hao forcibly suppressed the raging soul power, continually circulating his own soul power to refine and absorb it bit by bit.

Time ticked by, and a little over an hour passed.

At last, Lin Hao slowly opened his eyes, a sharp gleam flashing within them.

After standing, Lin Hao clenched his fists and loosened his muscles and joints, feeling even greater strength filling his body.

Sensing the new surge of soul power within him, Lin Hao's lips curved into a satisfied smile.

The body-tempering effect of a Ten Thousand Year Soul Ring really is impressive!

His third Soul Ring was a Ten Thousand Year Soul Ring. On top of that, he had previously consumed singular velvet sky chrysanthemum, undergone Ice and Fire Body Tempering, and continued cultivating throughout, increasing his soul power.

Now that he had absorbed his third Soul Ring...

His cultivation surely had not merely broken through to become a level-thirty-one Soul Elder!

It should have risen far beyond that!

However, there was no crystal ball nearby to test his soul power, so Lin Hao planned to check his current soul power level after returning.

"Congratulations, Little Monster!"

"You've absorbed another Ten Thousand Year Soul Ring as your third Soul Ring!"

Seeing Lin Hao successfully absorb the ten-thousand-year Titan Dragon Ape's Soul Ring, Dugu Bo was utterly shaken. He could not help marveling inwardly as he offered his congratulations.

"Thank you for the praise, Senior Dugu!"

"But I'm only a Soul Elder. I still have a long road of cultivation ahead!"

"I need to guard against arrogance and impatience, and keep striving!"

Lin Hao grinned and replied modestly.

Then, looking at the third Soul Ring circling him, Lin Hao prepared to test his third Soul Skill and gave a low shout.

"Third Soul Skill: Singular Velvet Sky Chrysanthemum-Titan Transformation!"

The instant his third black Soul Ring lit up, golden soul power surged from Lin Hao's palm, rapidly forming a peculiar chrysanthemum several times larger than either of his previous two Food System singular velvet sky chrysanthemums.

Its stem was black as ink jade, covered in dragon-scale patterns, while its flower shone a brilliant gold. Each petal gleamed with a metallic luster, radiating a weighty, majestic aura.

It was the Titan Singular Velvet Sky Chrysanthemum!

After using his third Soul Skill to create this Titan Singular Velvet Sky Chrysanthemum...

Lin Hao immediately brought the Titan Singular Velvet Sky Chrysanthemum to his mouth, tore off all its petals in a few bites, and swallowed them.

The next moment, powerful soul power flooded his entire body!

Golden dragon-scale patterns rapidly formed across Lin Hao's skin, spreading from his chest to his limbs until they densely covered his entire body, as though he had donned a suit of dragon-scale armor.

Then, amid dazzling golden light, Lin Hao's body began swelling, his height shooting from a little over 1.8 meters to nearly four meters!

His muscles bulged and his veins twisted like gnarled roots. He seemed to have become a small giant, radiating a suffocating pressure!

"Little Monster, is this the effect of your fourth Soul Skill?!"

Beside him, Dugu Bo was absolutely dumbfounded.

Lin Hao grinned, revealing a mouthful of white teeth, and replied.

"That's right! This is the effect of my third Soul Skill: Singular Velvet Sky Chrysanthemum-Titan Transformation!"

"After consuming the Titan Singular Velvet Sky Chrysanthemum created by my third Soul Skill, Titan Transformation, the body temporarily gains the Titan Dragon Ape bloodline. Its size triples, and all aspects of its physical capabilities increase accordingly."

"At the same time, it gains a layer of dragon-scale protection capable of withstanding a Ten-Thousand-Year Soul Skill, as well as an unstoppable-body effect that grants immunity to all nonphysical control Soul Skills!"

Hearing this, Dugu Bo's eyes widened. He sucked in a breath and exclaimed.

"Little Monster, even 'monster' isn't enough to describe you anymore!"

"You're an absolute freak!"

"Is this how heaven-defying an immortal herb Martial Soul can be when it takes the Food System path?!"

"This kind of physical transformation is practically a lesser Martial Soul Avatar!"

"Compared with a Martial Soul Avatar, it only lacks the enhanced Soul Skill effects and reduced soul power consumption."

"But you're only a Soul Elder!"

"A Soul Elder's third Soul Skill has an effect comparable to a lesser Martial Soul Avatar!"

"If word gets out, who knows how many factions will see you as a prized catch!"

Lin Hao shook his head, however, and sighed helplessly.

"Although this third Soul Skill is powerful, it has a limitation: the consumption is too great."

"Creating one takes nearly thirty percent of my soul power, along with a large amount of stamina."

"I feel that without replenishing my soul power, I could make at most three a day."

"And those three can be stored for three days."

Dugu Bo was speechless, wondering whether Lin Hao was simply showing off under the guise of complaining.

"For a high-level Food System Soul Skill like yours, that limitation is already quite reasonable!"

"Besides, soul power food made by ordinary Food System Soul Masters loses its effect after at most two hours. Even top-tier Food System Soul Masters can only preserve theirs for a day or two."

"Yours lasts three days. That already breaks the limit for storing soul power food!"

"Stop being so greedy, brat!"

Lin Hao merely grinned without answering.

For an ordinary Food System Soul Master, that would naturally be enough.

But for him, it was nowhere near enough!

After all, he had no intention of following an ordinary Food System Soul Master's path!

He had chosen the Food System path only to push the effects of his singular velvet sky chrysanthemum Martial Soul, an immortal herb, to their utmost limit!

Although his third Soul Skill had considerable limitations, there was still a way to overcome them.

The solution was actually quite simple.

He merely had to follow his plan: continually strengthen his body and repeatedly compress his soul power.

Once the quality of his soul power improved, he would naturally be able to create more Food System singular velvet sky chrysanthemums.

Including the Titan Singular Velvet Sky Chrysanthemum!

Although he had already gained copper skin and iron bones and might be able to compress his soul power to the level of a Soul Emperor, or even a Soul Saint...

Lin Hao was still not satisfied.

He wanted his body to become even stronger!

Aside from consuming his own Food System singular velvet sky chrysanthemums and ten-thousand-year whale glue, he could also use the thunder attribute granted by his second Soul Ring to practice Thunderclap Body Refinement.

But the stronger his body became, the more powerful the lightning needed to be for effective tempering.

That could also easily injure his body.

If he lost control, he could very well suffer internal injuries.

This set Lin Hao's mind to work.

If I could obtain the Blue Silver Emperor Right Leg Bone Ah Yin left behind, its Soul Bone Skill, "Wildfire Cannot Burn It All Away; the Spring Breeze Brings It Back to Life," has regenerative effects powerful enough to regrow severed limbs.

Healing internal injuries would surely be child's play.

If I could obtain it, my Thunderclap Body Refinement would yield twice the results for half the effort!

With the ability to regrow severed limbs, even if something went wrong during Thunderclap Body Refinement, I could recover quickly without worrying about lingering hidden injuries!
