A terrifying force surged into Li Mu's body, wantonly destroying everything around it.
It even began to destroy Li Mu's bones.
But his own power was simply too extraordinary-or rather, his bloodline was simply too terrifying.
Had he been embedding it in his right leg, Li Mu might have been somewhat worried.
After all, the Golden Dragon King was not adept at this sort of suppression. Or rather, although he could suppress it too, the effect would have been far worse.
But what flowed through the left side of his body was the pure Silver Dragon King bloodline.
It was not that the bloodlines on his left and right sides could not mingle, only that their current degree of fusion was very low.
They mingled slightly only at his chest and Sea of Spirit, forming just a few multicolored motes of light.
This power was simply too faint.
So for now, the Silver Dragon King still dominated the left side of his body, and the Golden Dragon King the right.
As the left leg bone was fitted into place, a deep dragon's cry rang out from Li Mu's left arm.
A massive dragon head appeared at his left hand, mighty power coiling within it.
After the silver dragon let out a deafening roar, the dragon bone, which had been seething incessantly, abruptly quieted down.
Its presence even began to weaken.
Despite noticing the astonishing change in this Soul Bone, Li Mu's expression did not change in the slightest.
As power began gathering in his left leg, the left leg bone slowly recovered beneath the shroud of that mighty force.
Then a powerful, primordial force appeared within his left leg. After carefully sensing it,
Li Mu judged that this left leg bone was probably a Soul Bone from some kind of earth dragon.
This earth dragon had reached a hundred thousand years of age. Even throughout the entire Star Dou Great Forest, it should have been exceedingly rare, yet Shrek Academy had actually hunted it down.
But Li Mu was not concerned with any of that at the moment.
As he sensed its power, he found that this Soul Bone provided him with two Soul Skills in total.
The first Soul Skill was called Earth Stomp, an area-of-effect Soul Skill.
After he stomped on the ground, a large portion of it would become like mud and sand, rippling like flowing water.
Those ripples were very powerful.
And if he continued pouring in Soul Power, rows of enormous earthen spikes would emerge from the ground, continually extending outward.
That single stomp could produce all sorts of changes.
Furthermore, while using Earth Stomp, whether he delivered a kick or another attack, as long as his other foot remained on the ground,
the attack bonus granted to this foot would be several times his own strength.
In effect, it would greatly enhance the explosive power of his left leg for a short period.
This amplification was terrifying, especially for Li Mu.
The other Soul Skill was Earth Amplification. As long as his feet were planted on the earth, it would continuously restore his strength.
Restoring Soul Power was one aspect, and it also had other effects, such as restoring his physical stamina.
In effect, as long as his feet were planted on the earth, his strength at the same stage would increase considerably.
Li Mu was quite satisfied with these two Soul Skills.
He could even be described as utterly satisfied. After all, the explosive effects of both Soul Skills were truly heaven-defying.
However, Li Mu had not obtained the ability he wanted most.
Because he had hoped to obtain the Earth Escape Technique.
The Earth Escape Technique was the Soul Skill he wanted most.
After all, his greatest weakness at present was his slow speed, as well as his lack of a means of escaping over a prolonged period.
Ordinary Soul Masters either flew or used Soul Tools to fly, but he could only run normally like an ordinary person or drive a carriage.
This did not meet his needs, nor did it match his strength.
This was what dissatisfied Li Mu most, but he had no particularly good solution.
"Ah, if only I had the Earth Escape Technique. My speed would increase countless times over."
"And with my elemental affinity, I might barely even expend any Soul Power." Li Mu sighed at the thought.
Fortunately, once he broke through to three rings and mastered the wind element, he could use a Wind Escape Technique.
When that time came, his ability to escape and survive would improve considerably.
But at his current stage, there was ultimately nothing he could do.
Leaving the Silver Dragon Space, Li Mu sat cross-legged, the Lan Xuanyu Template gently circling before his eyes.
Then he brought up the alchemy techniques.
His gaze fixed on the alchemy techniques as he began studying from the most basic material on first-grade pills.
This material was very complex. An ordinary person might only thoroughly master a single field in their entire life.
And if Li Mu wanted to truly achieve version dominance in this world, whether it was alchemy, becoming a Soul Engineer, or forging,
he would need to try them all. For an ordinary person, this really was far too difficult.
Li Mu had no particularly good solution to this either. As he studied the alchemy techniques, a gleam flickered in his eyes.
He learned very quickly, and in the blink of an eye, evening had arrived.
Powerful spiritual power meant a powerful memory. Although Li Mu did not yet possess a photographic memory, he was not far from it.
So he was reasonably satisfied with his learning speed. In just this half-day,
he had already finished reading twenty or thirty first-grade pill formulas.
These formulas required only the most basic ten-year spirit herbs and some special materials to refine.
Of course, substitutes existed for all of them, so gathering the materials was quite easy.
However, without a pill furnace at present, refining pills would still be rather difficult.
So Li Mu did not dwell on it for now.
After briefly tidying up, he went out, locked his door, and strode outside.
He arrived at Shrek Academy's little world. Although a great battle had erupted just two days earlier,
causing considerable destruction here and even inside Shrek's Sea God Pavilion, the snack street remained open.
There were even quite a few students, with the crowds growing rather than shrinking.
Looking at the vendors gathered around him, continually laying out all kinds of food, Li Mu wove among them.
He casually bought all sorts of delicacies.
He walked slowly, eating as he went, his manner utterly languid.
But he had not walked far before he saw a crowd gathered ahead, packed three layers deep and then three more.
Moreover, most of them were Shrek Academy students, which piqued Li Mu's curiosity.
As Li Mu stepped forward, swiftly squeezing through the crowd and making his way inside, he found a young man and woman standing at its center.
The young man was fairly handsome, with a roguishly attractive air and short hair combed up.
He wore a long trench coat, his expression calm and humble.
Opposite him stood a girl in a Shrek Academy uniform, an exceptionally beautiful woman.
She had golden hair and golden eyes, and her features were very beautiful.
Aside from that, her bearing was also quite fine.
But something was clearly wrong between the two of them at the moment-or rather, they were clearly arguing.
"Nannan, please give me a chance. I really do want to treat you to a meal."
"Can we get to know each other all over again? Please don't treat me like this." A trace of dejection colored the young man's voice.
Seeing that Xu Sanshi was still pestering her, a trace of impatience flashed through Jiang Nannan's eyes.
She swept her gaze around in every direction, then calmly raised a hand and pointed at Li Mu.
"Give up, Xu Sanshi. Even if I got together with him, I would never have anything to do with you."
