Slaying the Hundred-Thousand-Year Mirror Shadow Beast, a Hundred-Thousand-Year Skull Bone!

After the battle turmoil in the distance subsided, Azure Luan sensed that the Soul Power ahead had stabilized.

He carried Gui Yuan, his blue wings flapping behind him, and flew back towards the battlefield.

Guang Ling followed closely behind, its icy wings rustling softly in the wind, refracting tiny sparkles in the greyish-white light of the sky.

When the two landed back on the ground, Qian Daoliu and Bibi Dong were standing in the direction where the two Soul Beast had disappeared, calmly gazing at the distant wind and snow.

Only a few deep cracks and residual Soul Power fluctuations remained on the icy plain, and the air still retained the residual warmth from the collision of scorching heat and extreme cold.

Gui Yuan was put down by Azure Luan, and quickly walked to the two of them. "Teacher, Grandpa Qian, is it over?"

Qian Daoliu nodded. "They're gone."

Bibi Dong didn't say much, and turned to walk towards the Mirror Shadow Beast that was still unconscious on the ground.

With a wave of her hand, the silk of the Soul-Eating Spider Emperor surged from her palm, wrapping around the silver-white Soul Beast again and again.

Layer upon layer of spider silk wrapped around the Mirror Shadow Beast's body, making it resemble a giant cocoon.

The Mirror Shadow Beast awoke with a start the moment it was bound by the spider silk, its silvery-white pupils filled with terror.

It struggled twice, but the spider silk was far more resilient than it had imagined; the more it struggled, the tighter it became.

Spare me! I'm willing to be a sacrifice! I'm willing to be a sacrifice!

Its voice was filled with desperate pleas, and its limbs frantically clawed at the ice, leaving several shallow white marks on the ice.

Bibi Dong said expressionlessly, "It's too late."

She no longer needed this Soul Beast to sacrifice itself; under the corrosive effects of the Soul-Eating Spider Emperor's poison, the Mirror Shadow Beast's voice grew weaker and weaker.

Qian Daoliu to Gui Yuan's side and said, " Xiao Yuan, deliver the final blow."

Gui Yuan nodded.

With a thought, the Darkin Bow appeared in his hand.

The dark purple bow gleamed with a deep luster in the Far North Ice Plains, its surface adorned with intricate Darkin patterns.

He raised his hand to nod the bowstring, Darkin Power condensed at his fingertips, transforming into an arrow as black as ink.

A faint, eerie Shimmer shimmered at the tip of the arrow, and the surrounding air distorted slightly due to the pressure of that force.

The opponent was, after all, a Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Beast; without using the Darkin Bow, it would be difficult to kill it in one blow.

Gui Yuan drew his bow and aimed at the head of the Mirror Shadow Beast.

The moment the bowstring was fully drawn, the Darkin Power was concentrated to its fullest extent in the arrow.

The Mirror Shadow Beast stared at the black arrow, its pupils suddenly contracting. "No... no! I'm willing to sacrifice myself! I really am—"

Its voice held a final plea, and its silvery-white eyes were wide with terror.

But the arrow had already left the bow.

The black light streaked through the air, moving so fast that it left only a thin, hair-like black trail.

The arrow pierced the Mirror Shadow Beast's forehead with perfect accuracy, without the slightest deviation.

The Mirror Shadow Beast's voice abruptly stopped, its body stiffened, and its silvery-white pupils rapidly dilated.

The massive body slowly fell to the ground, crashing onto the ice with a dull thud and sending up a ring of fine ice shards.

A bright red Hundred Thousand Year Soul Ring slowly rose from its corpse, radiating a dazzling light in the grayish-white sky.

Azure Luan chimed in, "If you were truly willing to sacrifice yourself, couldn't you have just done so? Why didn't you unleash the sacrificial magnetic field when you were entangled in the spider silk?"

Clearly, in their view, this Hundred-Thousand-Year Mirror Shadow Beast did not want to be sacrificed, but rather wanted to make one last dying struggle.

Qian Daoliu forward and glanced at the corpse of the Soul Beast.

His gaze lingered on the Mirror Shadow Beast's head for a moment, then he crouched down, conjuring a wisp of golden light in his hand and probing towards its head.

The golden light easily sliced through the fur on the other's head, revealing the silvery-white bones beneath.

A moment later, he took out a piece of silver-white Soul Bone from the corpse.

The Soul Bone was shaped like a skull, with a smooth, mirror-like surface that refracted a soft halo under the light, resembling a frozen lake.

The inner side of the Soul Bone still retains fine silver patterns, which are distributed in an intricate manner like blood vessels.

"It's actually a Hundred-Thousand-Year Image Skull Bone." Qian Daoliu handed the Soul Bone to Gui Yuan. "Not bad luck."

Gui Yuan took the Soul Bone; it felt slightly cool to the touch, and he could sense a gentle yet powerful Spiritual Power contained within it.

He carefully put away the Soul Bone, then looked at the Hundred Thousand Year Soul Ring floating in the air.

Bibi Dong looked completely bewildered. "Wait a minute? Didn't I give you a 60,000-year-old spiritual skull? How come there's another skull?"

Gui Yuan said somewhat guiltily, "Teacher, I haven't absorbed that skull yet. I was thinking, what if there's an even better one later?"

Bibi Dong:...

Then she sighed, "Oh well, whatever. I've given you the skull; you can do whatever you want with it."

"Let's absorb the Soul Ring first. We can absorb the Soul Bone after we get out."

Qian Daoliu also spoke up, "Just focus on absorbing the energy. I'll use my Soul Power to help you resist the cold. Don't worry about the environment."

Gui Yuan nodded, walked to the corpse of the Mirror Shadow Beast, and sat down cross-legged.

The ice surface sent a chill through the fabric, but under Qian Daoliu's Angel Domain, that coldness was kept at bay.

He doesn't need to expend extra Soul Power to resist the cold, so he can focus all his energy on absorbing the Soul Ring.

He took a deep breath and began to draw upon the Hundred Thousand Year Soul Ring.

The bright red Soul Ring slowly descended and disappeared into his body.

The moment it entered his body, a surge of immense energy exploded within him like a flash flood.

The intensity of that power far exceeded any Soul Ring he had absorbed before.

There is a huge gap between the energy density of Hundred Thousand Year Soul Ring and that of a 60,000-year Soul Ring, even with the support of three great Soul Bone.

Gui Yuan gritted his teeth, fully activating his Indestructible Vajra Body physique, and a golden light membrane covered the surface of the panel, suppressing the impact within a controllable range.

The energy flowed into his meridians, bones, and flesh little by little, like a trickle, each flow accompanied by pain that penetrated to the very marrow of his bones.

Fine beads of sweat appeared on Gui Yuan's forehead. He gritted his teeth and guided the power to slowly circulate along the path of meditation.

One day, two days, three days...

Time slowly passed amidst the wind and snow of the Far North Ice Plains.

Qian Daoliu stayed by Gui Yuan's side, continuously maintaining the Angel Domain and keeping his body warm.

Bibi Dong, Azure Luan, and Guang Ling were scattered around, alert to any potential threats.

The wind and snow on the Far North Ice Plains never ceased, but the golden light surrounding Gui Yuan remained bright and stable.

A month has passed just like that.

That morning, as the first rays of sunlight rose from the edge of the icy plain, Gui Yuan's aura finally stabilized completely.
