Lin Mo was extremely satisfied with his Harvest in the Soul Hunting Forest; it wouldn't be an exaggeration to say he had amassed a fortune.
Not only did he help the Charmander obtain a suitable Second Soul Ring, but by a twist of fate, he also managed to acquire an External Soul Bone for himself.
Especially rare is the Scarlet Blood Heart, a type of External Soul Bone with a heart-shaped core.
Soul Bone, in essence, are special energy crystals produced by Soul Beast that can be absorbed by Soul Master, but in most cases they appear in the form of bones.
There are also a few other examples.
For example, the Evil Eye Clan can produce a special External Soul Bone called the Evil Eye. Ten thousand years later, when Huo Yuhao killed the Evil Eye Tyrant Dominator, he obtained such a special External Soul Bone from the Evil Eye Evil Eye Tyrant Dominator.
The Scarlet Blood Heart, External Soul Bone that Lin Mo obtained, is very special, just like the Evil Eye, and it greatly enhances his abilities.
Furthermore, the biggest difference External Soul Bone and regular Soul Bone is that they can evolve along with the Soul Master's growth.
For the same reason, if possible, it's best to obtain External Soul Bone as early as possible.
Under the influence of the Scarlet Blood Heart, the Body Martial Soul successfully underwent an upgrade, transforming from a simple heart and blood into the Five Viscera and Six Bowels.
Moreover, this also confirmed his earlier conjecture: absorbing suitable Soul Ring and Soul Bone can indeed bring a significant boost to Body Martial Soul.
The Scarlet Blood Heart is the best example.
This Soul Bone is extremely compatible with his Body Martial Soul, and the Soul Skill attached to the Scarlet Blood Heart is Blood and Qi Control.
The specific effect of the Soul Skill is to greatly increase the upper limit of blood and qi that his current Body Martial Soul can contain. Simply put, the Bloodline Power in his body has more than doubled compared to before.
This is why Ye Linyuan exclaimed so much when he examined his body earlier; the sheer power of his Bloodline Power alone was comparable to that of Four-Ring Soul Ancestor.
Moreover, in addition to passively increasing his Bloodline Power limit, the Blood and Qi Control also granted him the ability to control the release of blood energy ahead of time.
This explains why the Self-Created Soul Skill" Blood Burst had been stuck in the first stage for a long time, suddenly broke through to the Second-Stage Burning Heart," after absorbing the External Soul Bone.
If the First-Stage Boiling Blood was a one-sided enhancement, then entering the second-stage Burning Heart greatly enhanced Lin Mo's combat power.
The simplest way to use the ability to release blood energy is to consume Bloodline Power to create weapons formed from it.
The strength of a weapon is directly proportional to the Bloodline Power it consumes.
Based on Lin Mo's testing over the past two days since returning from the Soul Hunting Forest, his most effective method right now is still the Blood Spear, which allows for ranged attacks.
Furthermore, the tip of the Blood Spear can be imbued with the dragonfire of Charmander to further enhance its power.
However, besides the blood gun, what pleased him most was another method of use that had begun to show promise after two days of research.
That is Blood and Qi Wing Formation.
Thinking of this, Lin Mo, in the clinic room, subconsciously mobilized the Bloodline Power to construct a pair of bat-wing-like wings on his back.
Soon, a look of joy appeared on Lin Mo's face, and the blood wings on his back slowly flapped, allowing him to float up directly in the room.
This is called Blood and Qi Wing Formation, which can create a pair of wings on the back for flight by consuming a large amount of Bloodline Power.
However, the requirements for consuming and controlling Bloodline Power are quite exaggerated.
If this continues for too long, the excessive consumption of Bloodline Power will cause him to fall into a state of weakness.
Just like overusing Boiling Blood.
The consumption of Bloodline Power is far more exaggerated than that of constructing a Blood Spear.
Without the Scarlet Blood Heart greatly increasing the upper limit of Bloodline Power, even if Lin Mo could control the release of blood energy to the same degree of precision as he does now, it would be difficult for him to Blood and Qi Wing Formation.
Even a skilled cook can't cook without rice.
Just as Lin Mo was slowly descending with the Bloodwing, a slightly urgent knocking sound came from outside the room.
Soon, that familiar, cool voice rang out from outside the room; it was Ye Lingling.
" Lin Mo, are you ready? Grandpa said he'd go to the academy with you today to help you take care of some things there."
"Coming right now!" Lin Mo shouted at the top of his lungs to cover up the noise inside the room.
He then quickly transformed the blood wings on his back into Bloodline Power and retracted them back into his body.
He pushed open the door and saw Ye Lingling at the entrance. "Has Master finished his work these past two days?"
"Yeah, I worked overtime, but I'm finally done." Ye Lingling nodded, her voice as calm as ever, but you could hear a slight emotional fluctuation in it.
This time it seems a bit like... schadenfreude?
Lin Mo scratched his head, "This time, in order to take me to the Soul Hunting Soul Hunting Forest, the round trip and the time spent there were quite a bit."
The clinic has accumulated a large number of patients...
"Then come with me."
Ye Lingling turned around, leaving Lin Mu with only her beautiful back view, and led the way for him.
Office of the Dean of Students, Heaven Dou Intermediate Soul Master Academy.
Director Xue's face, which usually carried a certain air of authority, now showed a look of relief and ease.
Upon seeing the three, he quickly stepped forward, his gaze first falling on Lin Mo, then turning to Ye Linyuan, and respectfully bowing.
" Elder Ye, you've finally brought him back! If you hadn't shown up, I would have gone to the clinic myself to demand his return!"
This kid disappeared without a word for so many days, I thought he'd been kidnapped by some ignorant force!
Upon hearing this, Lin Mo showed a hint of apology on his face and stepped forward. " Director Xue, I'm sorry to have worried you."
Xue Sheng glared at him irritably, then couldn't help but look at Ye Linyuan with curiosity, her tone softening. " Elder Ye, what's going on...?"
Ye Linyuan stroked his beard and chuckled, "I found him agreeable, so I took him out for some training."
What, Xue kid? Do I need to report to you beforehand if I take my men out for a walk?
"No, no, not at all." Xue Sheng quickly waved his hand, a smile appearing on his face. "You flatter me."
But Lin Mo is, after all, a student of the academy, and his sudden disappearance inevitably makes me, as the director, anxious.
"Now that you took it away, I'm relieved."
Lin Mo, observing Xue Sheng's respectful yet familiar attitude towards Ye Linyuan, couldn't help but feel curious and asked:
" Director Xue, you and Elder Ye... you know each other?"
Upon hearing this, Xue Sheng's face showed a look of reminiscence, and he nodded. "It's more than just knowing each other. Back then, my Martial Soul was the Snow Lotus. Although I came from a collateral branch of the royal family, I also encountered bottlenecks in my cultivation."
At that time, I was fortunate enough to be accepted by Elder Ye, who allowed me to learn and train under his guidance for a period of time. I not only benefited greatly from his medical skills, but also gained a deeper understanding and control over my own Martial Soul.
To me, Elder Ye was like a mentor to me.
Ye Linyuan waved his hand, his tone indifferent. "That's all ancient history, why bring it up?"
You were quite hardworking back then, and your achievements today are the result of your own efforts.
Xue Sheng replied solemnly, "I will never forget Elder Ye 'Xue Sheng guidance."
The two Swagger a few polite compliments, and the atmosphere was quite harmonious.
After exchanging pleasantries, Xue Sheng turned her gaze back to Lin Mo, her tone becoming more formal. " Lin Mo, tell me, what exactly has been going on lately?"
The college has its own rules; such a long absence without a valid reason deserves an explanation.
Lin Mo had anticipated this question. He scratched his head, a hint of embarrassment on his face, and explained, " Director Xue, it's like this."
My Soul Power recently broke through to level 20, reaching a bottleneck.
Fortunately, Elder Ye valued me and was willing to take me to the Soul Hunting Forest, where he helped me obtain my Second Soul Ring.
The incident happened suddenly, and I didn't have time to report it to the college; it was my negligence.
