The next morning, Yue Guan went to the Pope's Palace with Gui Mei and Gui Yuan and told Bibi Dong about absorbing the Hundred-Thousand-Year Blue Silver Emperor Right Leg Bone the night before.
After listening to Yue Guan's account, Bibi Dong's expression was slightly complicated for a moment, but she quickly regained her composure.
She didn't say much, only nodded slightly. "That Soul Bone is indeed very suitable for you. Now that you've absorbed it, make good use of it and don't waste its value."
Yue Guan respectfully responded.
Bibi Dong had no particular interest in this Hundred Thousand Year Soul Bone.
She already possesses the complete Soul Bone Set, lacking not a single piece.
She was simply surprised by her disciple's luck, that he had managed to accidentally discover the Soul Bone left behind after the Blue Silver Emperor's sacrifice.
Moreover, Gui Yuan gave it to Yue Guan without hesitation.
But on second thought, that piece of Blue Silver Emperor Right Leg Bone was indeed suitable for Yue Guan.
As for the two abilities granted by this Soul Bone, if the Spirit Hall needs them, they can simply have Gui Yuan use the " Singular Velvet Spirit Chrysanthemum " to replicate them.
Bibi Dong, the " Healing " Soul Skill of this Soul Bone is more valuable than the second Soul Bone Skill.
After all, if war breaks out in the future, injuries will be inevitable, and the Healing Soul Skill of the Blue Silver Emperor Right Leg Bone will be of great use at that time.
For the next few days, Gui Yuan did not cultivate; he rested, or rather, he adjusted his state.
By the third day, he felt he was almost ready.
Inside the room, he focused his Spiritual Power into his body. After a moment, the space in front of him slightly distorted, and a gray-black light gate slowly appeared.
Fine, shimmering patterns of light swirled around the edge of the portal, emanating a profound and malevolent aura.
Gui Yuan took a deep breath and stepped into the portal of light.
The portal slowly closed behind him, swallowing him into a dark space.
The interior of the secret realm was much more spacious than Gui Yuan had imagined.
Beneath my feet was a gray-black Void, as if I were stepping on solidified clouds, devoid of any sense of reality or warmth.
There was no sky above, no walls around, only endless blackish-gray mist flowing slowly.
Gui Yuan stood in that void, his gaze calmly sweeping over his surroundings.
Let's begin the First Trial.
The moment the voice fell, the scene before Gui Yuan's eyes suddenly changed.
The gray-black void receded like a tide, replaced by an endless golden ocean.
Those golden things are Gold Soul Coin.
They covered the entire ground, piled up in layers, like a desert made of gold coins.
The edges of the gold coin refracted tiny golden lights under the illumination of some invisible light, illuminating the entire space as if it were a place where the sun was setting at dusk.
Gui Yuan stood in the center of that sea of gold coins, the Gold Soul Coin beneath his feet reaching above his ankles, making a crisp metallic clanging sound when he stepped on them.
When the wind blows, the gold coins make a soft rustling sound, like waves lapping against the beach.
In the distance, gold coins piled up into a huge hill, the top of which almost touched the sky.
The luster of the gold coins shimmered and intertwined, creating a flowing golden halo that made one unconsciously want to bend down and pick them up.
Gui Yuan glanced down at the gold coins at his feet, then lifted his foot and took a step forward.
He didn't bend down to pick it up, nor did he stop to look.
He stepped on the Gold Soul Coin and walked forward step by step. With each step, the gold coins made a crisp sound under his feet, but to him, the sound was no different from the sound of ordinary pebbles colliding.
"Boring."
Gui Yuan said calmly, "Do you think I'd be short of money?"
After walking for about the time it takes to brew a cup of tea, the gold coins underfoot suddenly began to sparse.
The golden ocean receded behind him, and then a new scene began to appear before him.
Gui Yuan looked up, his pupils contracting slightly.
It was a vast wilderness, the ground crushed by immense force, leaving behind several bottomless ravines.
In the very center of the wilderness lay the corpse of a massive Soul Beast.
The Soul Beast was covered in dark golden scales, its body resembling a continuous mountain range. Its head was lowered, its eyes were closed, and its limbs were outstretched, showing no signs of life.
Even in death, its body still exuded a chilling aura, far surpassing that of any Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Beast, as if all living beings in the world were mere ants before it.
Above the enormous corpse, a Soul Ring was slowly rotating.
It was an unprecedented Soul Ring, dark gold in color, with its edges shimmering with tiny, star-like rays of light, radiating an aura so immense it seemed to tear space apart.
It's Million-Year Soul Ring!
Among the skeleton of that corpse, a Soul Bone gleaming with a dark golden light was quietly embedded between the sternum, like the most essential core of the entire Soul Beast.
Gui Yuan's gaze lingered on the Soul Ring for a moment before settling on the Soul Bone.
His breathing was steady, and his heartbeat did not accelerate.
Just then, two familiar figures appeared beside him.
It was none other than Yue Guan and Gui Mei, his eldest and second fathers.
Yue Guan's gaze was fixed on the dark golden Soul Ring, his voice carrying an unprecedented heat. " Xiao Yuan, you can't keep this Soul Beast's Soul Ring and Soul Bone all by yourself. Old Ghost and I have raised you for so many years, how about you give us both the Soul Ring and Soul Bone?"
Gui Mei stood beside Yue Guan, his face expressionless as he replied, "With this Million-Year Soul Ring and Soul Bone, we might be able to break through to the God Level."
Their words were filled with eagerness and greed, attempting to stir up the greed in Gui Yuan's heart, something the real Yue Guan and Gui Mei would never do.
Gui Yuan looked at the two people in front of him and remained silent for a moment.
His gaze lingered on their faces for a long time, then his lips twitched slightly, and he sighed softly.
"You two aren't my great-grandfathers. If you were, you would definitely give me the Million-Year Soul Ring and Soul Bone instead of fighting with me for them."
He raised his head, his gaze calmly meeting those two faces that were all too familiar. "If you want to arouse my greed, you'd better pretend, at least pretend convincingly."
The moment the words fell, the two figures, like grains of sand scattered by the wind, twisted and turned into wisps of gray-black mist that dissipated into the air.
The enormous corpse of the Soul Beast shattered into countless tiny points of light at the same moment, blooming and quickly extinguishing in the void like fireworks.
The Million-Year Soul Ring and Soul Bone also disappeared, turning into specks of light that merged into the gray-black mist.
All the points of light eventually vanished, as if they had never existed.
The surrounding scenery collapsed rapidly, turning into fragments that scattered and revealed the gray-black void beneath their feet once more.
" The First Trial, the Illusion of Greed, pass through."
