C10 Soul Bone

"This is impossible!" Yu Xiaogaang's jaw dropped wide enough to nearly swallow an egg as he gazed upon the Wind Baboon's corpse in Yu Tianlang's grasp. Yu Xiaogaang, after awakening his variant martial spirit Luo Sanpao, had ventured alone from the Blue Lightning Overlord Sect to undertake rigorous training across the Douluo Continent. His travels had led him to witness many wonders and amass an unparalleled understanding of Soul Masters—no one on the continent could claim greater knowledge.

Despite its diminutive size, the right arm skeleton of the Wind Baboon radiated a sacred light—a Soul Bone! These were the rarest of treasures among Soul Masters. Typically, only Soul Beasts of 100,000 years would leave behind Soul Bones in their remains, and even among 10,000-year-old Soul Beasts, only those with a potent lineage could leave a Soul Bone after falling to a Soul Master. The worth of a single Soul Bone was beyond measure.

In any auction, the presence of a Soul Bone would guarantee it as the finale or the centerpiece. The mere hint of a Soul Bone auction would set surrounding forces into a frenzy of competition.

Yu Xiaogaang had once explained to Tang San that beyond the special Soul Techniques granted by a Soul Ring, a Soul Bone could bestow unique Soul Techniques upon a Soul Master. And should one encounter a Soul Bone of exceptional quality, it might even unlock a domain-type Soul Technique!

Yu Tianlang's brow furrowed, his black eyes glinting with an eerie light. He had never before encountered a Soul Bone birthed from a mere ten-year-old Soul Beast. According to the annals of Douluo Continent, the youngest Soul Beast to produce a Soul Bone had been at least a century old, and the power boost provided by such cruelly obtained Soul Bones was often insubstantial.

"An external soul bone?" The Soul Bone concealed within the Wind Baboon's remains was no larger than a fingertip, clearly not a typical Soul Bone. That left only one possibility—an external soul bone.

Having absorbed the energy of the Wind Baboon's Soul Ring, Ye Cann took a deep breath to ease his body's tension. This was, after all, his inaugural encounter with the extraordinary energy of the Douluo Continent.

Host: Ye Cann

Soul Power: Level 7

Cultivation Technique: Twelve Trials of Immortality (First Trial Unlocked: The Collector!)

Bloodline: Ancient Saint Body

Martial Spirit: Icy Jade Emperor Scorpion (Super Martial Spirit), Spirit Eye White Tiger (Unawakened)

Weapon: Sword of Judgment (Seventh Level Soul Tool), Blue Electric Dagger (Sharp Weapon)

Item: Title Douluo Experience Card *1

"Located a 90-year-old Wind Baboon with an external soul bone, Grade 8, capable of enhancing wind attribute Soul Techniques by 50%!"

A Soul Bone that boosts combat power?

Moreover, this is a special external soul bone, a massive treasure for any wind attribute Soul Master. Any wind attribute Soul Technique could be amplified by 50%, and it's an external soul bone. Although its grade isn't the highest, if other wind attribute Soul Masters were to discover it, they'd likely go mad in their pursuit of Ye Cann and his companions. Even a Title Douluo might be tempted by this seemingly inferior Soul Bone.

The greatest advantage of an external soul bone is that it doesn't take up one of the six primary Soul Bone slots, making each external soul bone an exceedingly rare find.

If the difficulty of obtaining a regular Soul Bone is about a six, then securing an external soul bone is closer to a ten.

The appearance of an external soul bone always sends shockwaves through the Soul Master community!

Yu Tianlang spoke with a hint of awkwardness, "Kid, this 90-year-old Wind Baboon Soul Beast is your catch. The Soul Ring and Soul Bone should rightfully be your trophies. You've just absorbed a ten-year Soul Ring; now, taking this Soul Bone is the optimal choice, but..."

Ye Cann could easily read between the lines of Yu Tianlang's words. As an avid fan of the Douluo Continent novels, he was well aware of the significance of an external soul bone. Each one is as unique as they come.

"Uncle Tianlang, had you not rescued me from the outskirts of the Star Dou Great Forest, I might well have ended up as Soul Beast dung by now."

Seeing Ye Cann's candid response, Yu Tianlang couldn't help but burst into laughter. "Kid, I'm fond of your spirit and character. I had planned to put you through more tests, but it seems you're already the ideal candidate to be my successor."

What?

Yu Xiaogaang was taken aback when he learned that Yu Tianlang intended to accept Ye Cann, a Soul Master from outside the Blue Lightning Overlord Sect, as his disciple.

Yu Tianlang was the Blue Lightning Overlord Sect's most exceptional disciple, possessing a variant martial soul that surpassed even the Blue Electric Overlord Dragon, known as the strongest Beast Martial Spirit on the Douluo Continent.

His martial soul was the White-Eyed Azure Dragon!

The White-Eyed Azure Dragon, a formidable member of the Dragon Clan and one of the Green Dragon King's offspring, was second only to the Dragon God. It boasted the Green Dragon King's wind attribute energy and a potent regenerative ability, ranking it among the Super Martial Spirits.

After awakening his White-Eyed Azure Dragon Martial Spirit, Yu Tianlang had been held in high esteem by the sect's elders, who lavished him with resources.

However, due to an incident involving a certain individual, a minor defect emerged in Yu Tianlang's body, halting any further progression of his Soul Point.

Despite a decade of relentless training, Yu Tianlang could not overcome the Soul Emperor bottleneck.

"Uncle Tianlang, your Martial Spirit wields the power of a contract! The Sect Master is eager for you to return and forge a master-disciple bond with the sect's most brilliant disciple of this generation," someone urged.

Yu Tianlang stowed the Soul Bone from the Wind Baboon into his storage bag, his expression turning stern. "Xiaogaang, I've said it time and again—I've repaid my debts to the sect in full. If not for a lingering sense of gratitude, do you think the Blue Lightning Overlord Sect's disciples, who've been training abroad, would all return unscathed?"

Yu Xiaogaang clenched his jaw, pressing on, "But your disciple should be the cream of the crop within the sect, not an outsider. Bestowing your Martial Spirit's unique abilities on someone else might well invite the elders' discontent."

Yu Tianlang merely shot Yu Xiaogaang an icy look. In that instant, Yu Xiaogaang felt as though his body was being sliced by countless blades, a tangible aura of lethal intent enveloping him.

It appeared he had overlooked the fact that Yu Tianlang was known as the Slaughterer within the Blue Lightning Overlord Sect!

Yu Tianlang then pivoted to face Ye Cann, speaking in a hushed tone.

"Ye Cann, would you accept the mantle of becoming my successor?"
