External Soul Bone: Vertical Eye—Please Bookmark, Recommend, Vote, and Tip

The Undead Skeleton Monarch even sent out a fervent thought: "I am willing to become Master's Soul Ring. Please grant me this wish."

Long Xiaoyao was completely stunned, finding it hard to believe.

Since ancient times, Soul Masters and Soul Beasts had stood in opposition. When had a Soul Beast ever voluntarily become a Soul Ring? Even as a Limit Douluo, Long Xiaoyao had never seen anything so strange.

Qin Fang's Martial Soul seemed even stronger than Long Xiaoyao had imagined. Could it possess the Ultimate Undead Attribute? Undead Attributes were already incredibly rare; as for an Ultimate Undead Attribute, he had never even heard of one.

No, that seemed unlikely. He had never heard of an Ultimate Martial Soul being capable of making Soul Beasts submit.

Several speculations surfaced in Long Xiaoyao's mind, only for him to dismiss them one by one. This simply made no sense.

Qin Fang was stunned as well. The same thing had happened when he absorbed the Ten Thousand Year Soul Beast, the Tyrannical Bone-Piercing Tiger. And now it was happening again? Qin Fang did not think he was leaking some domineering kingly aura. Could it be because of Senior Electrolux? He wanted to ask Electrolux, but received no response.

Seeing that Qin Fang was not reacting, the Undead Skeleton Monarch hurriedly lowered his stance even further. "Please show mercy, Master, and allow me to become your Soul Ring."

Well, since it had come to this, Qin Fang controlled his Martial Soul, the Jade Skeleton, and activated his Second Soul Skill: Tyranny.

With a sharp hiss, a blood-red sheen condensed over his body, and his aura surged. Purple light burst from his eye sockets and smashed apart the Undead Skeleton Monarch's Skull Bone.

The Undead Skeleton Monarch did not raise any defenses, allowing Qin Fang's attack to land upon him. There was even a trace of delight as it sent out a grateful thought.

Bang! Its Skull Bone shattered, and the blue flames in its eye sockets went out. Beneath the Undead Skeleton Monarch's feet, a dense black Soul Ring emerged.

Qin Fang reached out, and the black Soul Ring turned into gurgling spring water, slowly flowing into his body as though afraid of causing him any harm.

Within the Sea of Consciousness, the Undead Skeleton Monarch directly knelt on the ground. He willingly became Qin Fang's Third Soul Ring, without the slightest resentment.

Qin Fang's fusion encountered no further obstacles.

After one night, Qin Fang successfully absorbed this 50,000-Year Soul Ring.

The Undead Skeleton Monarch had poured nearly everything he possessed into Qin Fang's body, becoming part of his foundation.

When Qin Fang opened his eyes, one purple and two black Soul Rings gathered beneath his feet.

His Third Soul Ring lit up, and waves of formidable pressure spilled from his body, spreading outward in ripples like those of a natural-born monarch.

This was the pressure-type Soul Skill Qin Fang had just acquired. All Soul Beasts below 50,000 years would be affected; the weaker they were, the greater the effect.

Qin Fang had now gained a preliminary ability to protect himself.

The 50,000-Year Soul Beast had successfully pushed Qin Fang's Soul Power to Level 33.5. He was only seven years old.

What a terrifying thing that was.

Not even Soul Masters with an innate Level 20, an exceptionally powerful Talent, had cultivated as quickly as Qin Fang.

Sensing Qin Fang's strength, Long Xiaoyao could not help but nod to himself.

A crisp clatter rang out, drawing Long Xiaoyao and Qin Fang's attention.

Looking again, they saw a peculiar Soul Bone, bone-white and jade-like, condense and fall to the ground.

Puzzled, Long Xiaoyao picked it up and examined it closely.

The Soul Bone was only the size of a thumb, round and oval. Faint blue glimmers shone from its center, making it obvious at a glance that it was no ordinary object.

Hmm? This did not seem to be one of the six great Soul Bones. Could it be an External Soul Bone?

Long Xiaoyao injected Soul Power into it and explored it for a moment before bursting into laughter. Looking at Qin Fang, he said, "You brat, your luck really is incredible. You actually came across an External Soul Bone, which is even rarer than the six great Soul Bones—and it's an eye-type External Soul Bone at that."

Qin Fang was also incredibly excited. When a Soul Beast willingly offered a Sacrifice, there was a high chance of producing a Soul Bone. Who could have imagined that it would produce an even rarer External Soul Bone?

To be honest, Long Xiaoyao was tempted as well. However, he still tossed it to Qin Fang and said with a smile, "Brat, absorb it quickly."

Qin Fang gripped it in his hand and closed his eyes. As his Soul Power circulated, the External Soul Bone radiated brilliant blue light, slowly rose, and stopped at the center of Qin Fang's forehead. It turned into liquid and gradually fused into him.

Long Xiaoyao said, "Hmm? It's actually going to be a Vertical Eye on Forehead? Good, very good."

Qin Fang only felt coolness and heat intertwining at his forehead.

The Soul Bone slowly fused into him, becoming Qin Fang's third eye.

Once the fusion was complete, the power of the External Soul Bone successfully pushed Qin Fang's Soul Power to Level 34, saving him more than a month of arduous cultivation.

Looking at Qin Fang again, a pale-blue Vertical Eye on Forehead mark had formed between his brows, making him appear even more handsome.

Qin Fang could not wait to test the power of this Soul Bone.

With a hiss, the Vertical Eye on Forehead opened. Qin Fang immediately felt that everything before him had changed, losing all color and becoming grayish white.

Qin Fang's heart abruptly became utterly calm, no longer disturbed by anything in the outside world. It seemed to be a state of extreme calmness and absolute rationality.

Qin Fang tentatively raised his hand. Hmm? Why had his movements become so slow? It was at least a second slower than an ordinary wave.

Qin Fang tried again, and it was still incomparably slow. Then, suddenly, his movements became extremely fast, like a rapidly flapping fan.

The two states seemed capable of switching between each other, leaving Qin Fang thoroughly confused.

From Long Xiaoyao's perspective, after opening the Vertical Eye on Forehead, Qin Fang seemed to become an emotionless wooden carving, constantly waving his hand about with a remarkably astonished expression, looking like a complete fool.

No, something was wrong. Long Xiaoyao sensed the anomaly, his heart jolting as he hurriedly interrupted Qin Fang. In delight, he asked, "Qin Fang? Just now, did you enter a state of Time Stop?"

Qin Fang asked in confusion, "Time Stop? What is Time Stop?"

Long Xiaoyao explained, "After opening the Vertical Eye on Forehead, did you feel that the passage of time had slowed down for you?"

Qin Fang nodded.

Long Xiaoyao was so excited that he could barely control his aura. Regretfully, he said, "You brat, what am I supposed to say to you? I'm starting to regret it. If I'd known this Soul Bone's attached Soul Skill was so overpowered, I definitely wouldn't have given it to you."

Qin Fang looked at Long Xiaoyao in shock. Was this Soul Bone truly that valuable?

Long Xiaoyao continued, "Time Stop was a state proposed by an old friend of mine who wielded Time Power. The state you were in just now was very similar to one he experienced for a period of time."

"He once explained it to me. Simply put, one second for you equals half a second for others. Or half a second for you equals one second for others. I don't know if you can understand that."

"Perhaps I'm making it too complicated. Unfortunately, he passed away the year before last. Otherwise, he certainly would have been willing to guide you."

"Although my old friend possessed only the strength of a Soul Elder, he seemed to have seen through the River of Time and comprehended every mystery. He often said: 'If you toy with time, time will toy with you.'"
