Soul Land IV (Douluo Dalu) : Ultimate Fighting-Novel

Chapter 781 – Ice Dragon Skull Bone

Yuanen Huihui had chosen a skull. The pale green skull looked a little scary and there seemed to be a faint ghost fire at its eye.

Er Ming praised, “You sure know how to pick, little fella. Sure, sure.”

Lan Xuanyu felt that Er Ming’s gaze towards Yuanen Huihui was very gentle and different from how he looked at others.

“Senior, what kind of soul beast is this? The Elven Dragon guided me and thought that this is the most suitable for me,” Yuanen Huihui asked curiously.

Er Ming laughed. “No wonder, it turns out that you have the guidance of an Elven Dragon. This soul bone is a rare and valuable item. Among the 10,000-year skulls here, it is definitely ranked among the top. It is produced from a special type of soul beast called the Devil Eye Demon. The Devil Eye Demon has extremely powerful eyes. Back then, the second ranked of the 10 Great Beasts, the Evil Eye Tyrant, was a Devil Eye Demon. Hence, this soul bone is also called the Evil Eye soul bone. It is the soul bone of a 10,000-year Devil Eye Demon and can greatly increase one’s spiritual power. It is very compatible with soul masters who have pupil-type Martial Souls or Soul Skills. Your bow and arrow requirement for spiritual power is very high and you seem to have a pupil type ability. A mutation might happen after fusing with it. This is a very good choice, but when you choose other soul bones later on, you have to focus on increasing the spiritual power produced by the Demon Eye.”

“Thank you, senior. I’ll begin the fusion then!” Yuanen Huihui said with a smile as he carried the skull to the side and sat down.

“Take care to protect your consciousness and don’t be overly affected by the consciousness in the soul bone. Your Spiritual Sea must remain under your control,” Er Ming warned.

“Alright.”

The light green skull transformed into rays of green light and drilled into Yuanen Huihui’s head through his seven orifices. Immediately, Yuanen Huihui’s body began to tremble slightly and his brows furrowed slightly as though he was enduring a certain amount of pain.

Er Ming sighed as he looked at Yuanen Huihui and said, “It’s a pity that this child doesn’t have the ability to pass down the bloodline of my clan but the ability of the elven race.”

...

Lan Xuanyu’s heart stirred. He already knew that this Senior Er Ming before him was a god-rank Beast King after cultivating as a Titan Ape, and Yuanen Huihui was a descendant of the Titan Clan! Could it be that this Senior Er Ming was related to Yuanen Huihui’s family?

“Senior Er Ming, are you related to the Titan Clan?” Lan Xuanyu asked softly.

Er Ming chuckled. “I do, but I don’t have the face to say that I do. It’s fine if we don’t talk about it.”

Lan Xuanyu was a little confused but since Er Ming was unwilling to tell him, he naturally didn’t probe further.

Bai Xiuxiu and Lan Mengqin returned together, each holding a soul bone.

The muscles on Er Ming’s face twitched when he saw the soul bones in their hands. “Bi Ji, Demon Queen, you guys are too ruthless.”

“Gorilla, you can’t bear to part with it?” With a flash of light, the Demon Queen separated herself from Bai Xiuxiu with a sly smile on her face.

Bi Ji appeared beside Lan Mengqin and said apologetically, “We only chose the ones that are most suitable for these two children.”

Lan Xuanyu listened to them as he looked at the soul bone in Lan Mengqin and Bai Xiuxiu’s hands.

Lan Mengqin also had a skull in her hand, she also didn’t choose a torso bone. This skull was blue, and there were faint ice flowers on it. The air around it was filled with a faint ice fog.

The ice fog seemed to be alive and gave people a strange feeling. The most peculiar thing was that there were faint dragon patterns on the skull.

...

Lan Xuanyu was certain that it was a dragon pattern because he could naturally sense the change in aura.

Lan Mengqin’s Martial Soul was related to snow and phoenixes, so why did she choose a skull related to dragons?

Lan Xuanyu was puzzled.

At this moment, Bi Ji happened to look at him and smiled. “This is an Ice Dragon skull bone, the skull of a soul beast with a cultivation of 80,000 years, and it is also the soul bone of a True Dragon soul beast. There are a few reasons why I chose it: Firstly, it will be very helpful in increasing her affinity with the ice element, and there is a high chance that it will allow Mengqin to have an ice element affinity physique. Secondly, this soul bone will have a greater effect on spiritual power, which is also what Mengqin lacks right now. Most importantly, its dragon attribute will subtly influence Mengqin’s bloodline. With my help, Mengqin’s bloodline has already evolved to a certain extent. After adding a certain dragon attribute, it might become a special kind of dragon and phoenix.

“She has Twin Martial Souls and the Jade Phoenix Zither gave her the bloodline of a phoenix. With my bloodline, her Jade Phoenix Zither evolved directly. But the Heavenly Snow Woman’s Martial Soul didn’t change much. With this skull, the Heavenly Snow Woman Martial Soul would gain the dragon attribute and would be able to maintain a balance with the Jade Phoenix Zither, allowing her Martial Soul Fusion technique to reach a perfect state. Also, after she has the aura of a dragon, she would be more influenced by you and the effects would be better. Cultivating by your side would also be more beneficial for her. Killing two birds with one stone, so I let her choose this.”

While Lan Xuanyu was enlightened, he couldn’t help but feel great admiration for Lan Mengqin and was very happy for her. With such a senior’s suggestion by her side, she could take fewer detours.

Lan Mengqin didn’t know that there were so many reasons before, but after hearing Bi Ji’s explanation, she finally understood. She pursed her lips, but the smile on her face couldn’t be concealed.

An 80,000-year True Dragon soul bone was definitely a top-notch soul bone here. Ordinary people might not be able to recognize it, but how could it escape Bi Ji’s eyes?

Lan Xuanyu turned to look at Bai Xiuxiu and saw her choice.

The first torso bone appeared in Bai Xiuxiu’s hand.

The slender torso bone was a light purple color and looked as though it was carved out of crystal. It was mainly a spine and there were branches that extended outwards like ribs.

...

Normally, people would first feel fear upon seeing a skeleton, but this torso bone gave people a sense of beauty. There was a bright purple light circulating inside the torso bone, as though it was spinal fluid.

The Demon Queen said proudly, “Our one isn’t bad either. It’s the torso bone of the Hell Demon Dragon. It’s good stuff. I don’t know why you guys didn’t put it into the ranks of the 100,000-year soul bone. Although it isn’t 100,000-year, the effect is probably better than ordinary 100,000-year soul bones.”

Er Ming’s expression was slightly ugly. “It didn’t reach the 100,000-year area, but it was buried underground, you…” Yes, this soul bone was buried in an inconspicuous corner. The reason for this was mainly because although it was very useful, it wasn’t a 100,000-year soul bone and couldn’t be placed at the 100,000-year soul bone area.

Da Ming and Er Ming were law-abiding people. They left it here but buried it. Only the brothers knew where it was.

Lan Xuanyu quickly tried to smooth things over. “Senior Demon Queen, what use does this soul bone have?”

The Demon Queen said, “The Hell Demon Dragon actually doesn’t belong to the True Dragon race. It is a type of evil dragon and is considered an anomaly among the dragon race. It is also very rare. I am an Abyssal Demon Dragon and am actually a type of Hell Demon Dragon. It was just that there were some changes in my bloodline and it wasn’t as pure as the Hell Demon Dragon. But the soul bone of the Hell Demon Dragon is definitely a good thing. Look at the spinal fluid in here, it means that this soul bone still has a very strong activity and it will evolve. Furthermore, even if it doesn’t merge with a human soul master, it will still evolve. After a few more years, it will probably be able to become a 100,000-year soul bone.”
