"Th-This... isn't this the pair of wings of the Golden Holy Dragon that Three-Eyed Toad evolved into when our Golden Iron Triangle completed the Trinity Martial Soul Fusion Skill?! Xiao Yu, how did you... and Sleeping Dragon too, what exactly..."
As the memories in her mind slowly overlapped with the wings on Xiao Yu's back, Liu Erlong was instantly dumbfounded. Though they were much smaller, their appearance was identical.
"Yu'er, what exactly is going on?"
Dugu Bo asked as well, his face filled with shock.
He could clearly tell that the thing on Xiao Yu's back was definitely more than a mere torso soul bone. It was unquestionably an External Soul Bone comparable to a Hundred Thousand Year Spirit Ring.
But it was one thing for Xiao Yu to have it—why did Sleeping Dragon have a pair too?!
What did this mean?
For a moment, Yu Luomian and Liu Erlong both turned their gazes toward Xiao Yu.
They were equally curious. Why could both Sleeping Dragon and Xiao Yu possess a pair of dragon wings?
After pondering for a moment, Xiao Yu ruled out the system's existence and gave a simple explanation of his situation.
Simply put, the External Soul Bone he had originally obtained, the Spirit Butterfly Wings, had somehow been altered by the thin Golden Holy Dragon bloodline within his body.
It had transformed into this pair of dragon wings.
As for Sleeping Dragon, Xiao Yu had also come up with an explanation.
His dragon wings had come from a soul bone, while Sleeping Dragon's wings had been stimulated by Xiao Yu's evolved Golden Dragon Wings. This had caused the Golden Dragon Wings Sleeping Dragon had always possessed—but had been unable to manifest due to his bloodline—to be awakened ahead of time.
After hearing Xiao Yu's explanation, Dugu Bo, Yu Luomian, and Liu Erlong all wore blank, dazed expressions.
Even for veteran Soul Master powerhouses like them, this was the first time they had heard such a shocking claim!
After all, they had never heard that one's own bloodline could cause an External Soul Bone to evolve in form, or even allow a mixed-blood soul beast to develop other abilities.
If they had not witnessed such an unbelievable and inconceivable scene with their own eyes, they would likely have struggled even to comprehend it.
Although all of them found this explanation incredibly hard to believe,
the facts were right before them, leaving them no choice but to believe it.
After all, facts spoke louder than words!
After a bout of frantic thinking, Yu Luomian barely came up with an explanation he could accept—though only with several layers of mental filtering.
Xiao Yu's Golden Holy Dragon bloodline was more pronounced around his spine, which was why it could directly alter the attributes of the Spirit Butterfly Wings.
"I never expected this! I truly never expected it!! After this Bright Spirit Butterfly's External Soul Bone fused with the Golden Holy Dragon bloodline in your body, it actually transformed directly into the dragon wings of a Golden Holy Dragon!"
Yu Luomian spoke with an incomparably complicated expression.
Even after finding himself an explanation, Yu Luomian still found it difficult to accept that such a thing had happened.
Those were dragon wings, after all! For members of the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon clan, dragonification was a skill only a few outstanding clan elders could possess.
At present, there were only a handful of clan members capable of complete dragonification.
Moreover, Xiao Yu's evolved dragon wings actually made even Yu Luomian feel pressure. A pair of wings alone was already so formidable—one could only imagine the potential of Xiao Yu's so-called Golden Holy Dragon bloodline.
For a moment, Yu Luomian could not help looking forward to the day Xiao Yu reached the Title Douluo rank and Sleeping Dragon completely evolved into a Golden Holy Dragon.
Surely, even the Golden Holy Dragon formed by Erlong and the other two through their Iron Triangle Martial Soul Fusion Skill would pale considerably in comparison.
Yu Luomian had seen the Martial Soul Fusion Skill formed by the three of them before, but that Golden Holy Dragon had never given him any bloodline pressure at all. It felt entirely different from Xiao Yu now.
"..."
"Xiao Yu, can those wings fly?! Why don't you try taking off?!"
Liu Erlong looked at the wings on Xiao Yu's back and asked thoughtfully.
Hearing this, Xiao Yu began controlling the wings behind him.
Boom!!
Boom!!
Before long, under Xiao Yu's control, he could feel his Soul Power rapidly draining away. Yet as it diminished, the dragon wings on his back began to flap.
Two small whirlwinds slowly rose beneath Xiao Yu's feet.
His entire body gradually floated into the air.
Boom!!
Then, in the next instant, Xiao Yu's figure turned into an afterimage and shot into the sky.
Watching Xiao Yu soar upward in an instant, the others were once again stunned by his speed.
At such a speed, unless one was a Soul Emperor specializing in speed, even a Soul Saint who did not specialize in speed would be unable to catch up!
At the very least, Liu Erlong knew that if she had not been prepared in advance, she would not even have been able to react.
"..."
Is this what flying feels like?
Having finally taken to the skies, Xiao Yu flapped his wings and freely soared through the air.
After all, what transmigrator did not want to soar through the skies, gaze down upon mountains and rivers, and laugh proudly beneath the heavens?
However, Xiao Yu soon felt the Soul Power within him rapidly weakening.
His brow furrowed slightly. Looking down at the ground dozens of meters below, Xiao Yu stopped flying and obediently descended to the ground.
"How was it, Xiao Yu? How did it feel?"
Seeing Xiao Yu land, Liu Erlong was the first to step forward and ask.
"It felt great. Flying feels amazing, but the Soul Power consumption is simply too fast. If I go all out, I can probably only fly for one minute! But if I just hover, I can last around fifteen minutes! Still, the faster I fly, the more quickly my Soul Power is consumed!"
Xiao Yu made a rough calculation before replying.
Upon hearing Xiao Yu's words, the three of them were shocked once again.
He could fly at full strength for one minute.
Based on what they had just observed, Xiao Yu's full-speed flight was already roughly at the level of a Soul Saint.
In other words, Xiao Yu could fly at Soul Saint speed for an entire minute.
With such terrifying speed, it would be difficult for anyone to stop him in the future.
Looking at Xiao Yu now, Liu Erlong's heart was filled with a dazed sense of realization.
So Xiao Yu's guess had been right. This was the true form Three-Eyed Toad should have had.
It could fly, heal, and attack. What the three of them had needed to combine forces to achieve back then, Xiao Yu could now accomplish all by himself.
If Xiao Gang had been like this back then, perhaps he would not have been so insecure.
