Soul Beasts Can Absorb Soul Bones Too! Blue Silver Overlord Spear!
External Soul Bones were extremely rare, and the conditions for absorbing them were equally stringent.
One had to absorb a Soul Beast's Soul Ring before one could absorb its External Soul Bone.
Ye Yang naturally remembered Tang San's External Soul Bone, the Eight Spider Lances from the Man Faced Demon Spider, very clearly.
It came from Tang San's third Soul Ring. According to Grandmaster's theory, the maximum age for a third Soul Ring was only 1,760 years.
Yet the Man Faced Demon Spider had already reached 2,000 years!
Tang San had gained enormous benefits after absorbing it beyond his limit.
Then he had absorbed the External Soul Bone, which had also helped his physique and foundation enormously.
One could say that the External Soul Bone, the Eight Spider Lances, was the key to Tang San's rapid rise and complete transformation.
The Mandala Snake tail Soul Bone before Ye Yang now was a 3,000-year External Soul Bone.
Although Ye Yang hadn't directly absorbed the Mandala Snake's Soul Ring,
he had devoured its flesh and blood, spirit, Soul Power, and every bit of its energy essence!
As a result, the Mandala Snake's Soul Ring had never even appeared!
Ye Yang had absorbed it very thoroughly.
By rights, his compatibility with the Mandala Snake's External Soul Bone should be even higher.
Moreover, as Blue Silver Grass, his low starting point meant he was also highly compatible with all kinds of energy.
That was why Tang San's Blue Silver Grass Martial Soul could absorb both animal and plant Soul Rings.
Ye Yang wanted to give it a try too!
He had the Blue Silver Emperor carry him away from their original location to a hidden spot at the foot of a mountain.
He rested briefly and adjusted himself to his best condition.
Then he stretched out a leaf and pressed it against the Mandala Snake tail External Soul Bone.
He activated his devouring power again, intending to fuse with it.
The snake tail External Soul Bone trembled, reacting very noticeably.
Ye Yang's leaf trembled too, eager to absorb the Soul Bone.
However, something was still missing between the two.
"System, spend however many points it takes to strengthen my devouring power and help me devour the Soul Bone!"
[Ding! Host, this system cannot help you absorb the Soul Bone]
Hearing the system's voice, Ye Yang's heart went half cold.
Damn it, even the all-powerful system can't do it?
But the two are clearly showing signs of fusing!
"Why don't you try infusing your origin bloodline into the Soul Bone?"
The Blue Silver Emperor's gentle voice entered Ye Yang's mind.
Her voice was excited too.
A Soul Beast fusing with a Soul Bone was absolutely unprecedented!
If it succeeded, it would have epoch-making significance for the growth of Soul Beasts!
That's right!
How did I not think of that!
Everything suddenly became clear to Ye Yang.
It was just like claiming ownership with a drop of blood. One's lifeblood possessed all of one's energy characteristics and was an important link to external objects.
With a thought, Ye Yang deliberately broke the vein at the tip of his centermost leaf.
Then he forced a drop of silvery sap from the origin of his rootstock and sent it along the leaf's veins, letting it drip onto the thick, long Soul Bone.
Hum!
As soon as the drop of silvery sap fell, the thick snake tail External Soul Bone absorbed it and gave a trembling hum.
Then the originally gray-black snake tail External Soul Bone turned a faint silver-black.
The hard bone in contact with the leaf melted rapidly!
Then, guided by Ye Yang, it flowed into the veins of his much smaller leaf.
It spread along the veins, throughout the entire leaf.
Then it flowed back the other way, pouring into Ye Yang's stem and roots and circulating throughout his body.
Finally, it returned to that leaf, continuously strengthening its central vein.
Ye Yang's long, slender leaf, which resembled a corn leaf, kept changing.
The vein in the middle grew harder and harder.
The sun set and the moon rose.
A day passed swiftly.
The original section of Soul Bone, six meters long and as thick as a human thigh, had completely melted and disappeared into Ye Yang's central leaf.
The External Soul Bone had been completely absorbed.
[Ding! Host's foundation level +1 +1 +1 +1 +1]
When Ye Yang came to his senses, the system's voice rang out repeatedly in his mind.
This time, it wasn't adding evolution points, but directly increasing his foundation level!
Ye Yang glanced at his personal page and saw that his Blue Silver King bloodline level, originally at level 83, had leaped five levels to 88!
In evolution points, that would have been over four hundred points!
Clearly, his physique had undergone another considerable transformation.
His Soul Power had also increased by 300 years, reaching 4,300 years!
His spiritual power, however, remained unchanged, and he gained no spiritual points.
What a rush!
Ye Yang felt thoroughly pleased.
The changes this 3,000-year Mandala Snake had brought him were simply enormous.
One could say that, just like the change that Man Faced Demon Spider had brought Tang San, it was a true transformation.
Clang!
With a thought, he activated that leaf.
A clear metallic ring rang out, like a blade leaving its sheath!
The leaf, originally six meters long, instantly shot out to nine meters!
Moreover, the leaf curled in on itself around its hard central vein, its edges wrapping tightly around it.
It was a nine-meter-long spear!
The part near Ye Yang's rootstock was as thick as an arm, while the tip was as sharp as a steel needle.
"So powerful!"
Just from sensing its presence, the Blue Silver Emperor and Ye Yang spoke in unison.
Then both of them showed interest.
Ye Yang swung the special External Soul Bone and thrust it at the small mountain.
Puchi!
Like a toothpick piercing tofu, the nine-meter leaf spear met almost no resistance as it plunged a full five meters into the mountain!
It wasn't that the remaining four meters lacked force.
Rather, Ye Yang was standing too far away. His leaf had already straightened out and couldn't reach any farther.
Judging by how easily it had gone in, if he were close enough, driving all nine meters into the mountain would be easy as well.
"From now on, I'll call you the Blue Silver Overlord Spear!"
Ye Yang remembered when Tang San's Blue Silver Grass Martial Soul had undergone its Second Awakening and become the Blue Silver Emperor.
Tang San had obtained a natal Soul Ring formed through the empowerment of a vast amount of Blue Silver Grass in the Star Dou Great Forest and the power of the Blue Silver King with 85,000 years of cultivation.
The Soul Skill it contained was the Blue Silver Overlord Spear!
It was the Blue Silver Grass's only offensive skill aside from its innate skill of vigorous life.
Now, Ye Yang had obtained this skill ahead of time through an External Soul Bone.
Moreover, his 4,300 years of Soul Power were equivalent to a human level 43 Soul Ancestor.
In terms of bloodline, Ye Yang's own Blue Silver King bloodline was already comparable to Tang San's Blue Silver Emperor bloodline, inherited from a grandparent.
But with the boost from a 3,012-year External Soul Bone, Ye Yang's attack power absolutely surpassed Tang San's Blue Silver Overlord Spear by far!
"At the very least, it's equivalent to an attack from a level 60 Soul Emperor!"
"Against anyone below a level 70 Soul Saint, this attack of mine is invincible!"
Ye Yang made his guess, feeling very confident.
With that move alone, Ye Yang could easily kill a Ten-Thousand-Year Soul Beast!
He could even contend with a 20,000-year Soul Beast!
"Very strong. Most Ten-Thousand-Year Soul Beasts are no match for you."
The Blue Silver Emperor spoke, confirming Ye Yang's guess.
With a thought, Ye Yang controlled the Blue Silver Overlord Spear and unfurled the leaf that had curled into a spear.
Crack!
A series of crisp cracks rang out as the Overlord Spear instantly split open the round hole in the mountain rock, and a nine-meter-long, palm-wide great blade appeared!
He lifted it forcefully, and the leaf embedded five meters into the mountainside split the rock apart.
A silver-black great blade appeared in the air.
Looking at the smoothly cut rock, Ye Yang and the Blue Silver Emperor were astonished once again.
It could be used not only as a spear, but also as a great blade!
