...
Half a month later.
"Splash—"
The long-calm Ice and Fire Yin-Yang Eye rippled again, and a figure broke through the water, landing steadily on the rocks on the shore.
Xuan Hao, covered in faint golden dragon scales, landed steadily on the rocks on the shore.
Those deep, majestic, crimson-gold vertical pupils were even more profound; a single glance from them could instill a sense of oppression from the depths of one's soul.
This retreat was extremely rewarding.
First, there are two soul bones.
Under the transformation of the dragon bone energy of the two great dragon kings, Ice and Fire, the left leg bone of the Soft Bone Rabbit and the right leg bone of the Blue Silver Emperor have undergone qualitative changes.
Arou's left leg bone's teleportation range doubled, increasing from 100 meters to 200 meters, without consuming the same amount of energy!
As for Ah Yin's right leg bone, its regenerative ability, which is like "wildfire that cannot burn it out and spring breeze that brings it back to life," has been terrifyingly enhanced.
The Ice Dragon King told him that as long as he was in the environment of the Ice and Fire Yin-Yang Well, even if he was on his last breath, this soul bone could draw energy from the spring water and forcibly pull him back from the brink of death.
Even in the outside world, wherever there are plants, his recovery speed is several times that of a Soul Master of the same level!
But the biggest gain this time was the improvement in Qi and blood brought about by absorbing Dragon Blood Mushroom.
Yellow—purple—red—black!
Four soul rings hovered around Xuan Hao's body.
The fourth spirit ring, a ten-thousand-year black ring!
This black spirit ring is quite special.
Its surface is not deep black, but rather faintly reveals a luster of blood and gold intertwined.
It is also engraved with complex dragon patterns, as if a living dragon soul is swimming in it.
This was the unexpected joy brought about by that ancient Dragon Blood Fungus!
Because it absorbed the essence of true dragons over the years, the Dragon Blood Mushroom unexpectedly developed a very weak dragon soul.
Using this wisp of dragon soul as a base, the Ice and Fire Dragon King guided the golden dragon blood within his body to create this soul ring tailor-made for him.
Moreover, this is a growth-type spirit ring.
Its lifespan will increase as its own vital energy and blood strength increase.
Although it is less than 20,000 years old now, it may grow to 100,000 years or even more in the future!
"Fourth Soul Skill - Golden Dragon Rampage Domain!"
Xuan Hao gave a low shout.
boom--!
The special black spirit ring lit up instantly, and an extremely violent blood-red aura swept out from him, instantly engulfing a ten-meter radius around him.
Within this domain, Xuan Hao felt his blood burning, his golden dragon bloodline boiling, and he seemed to have transformed into a humanoid tyrannosaurus!
Strength, defense, and speed all doubled!
Moreover, this boost can be stacked with the first soul skill, "Golden Dragon Body"!
With his current power, once he combines his first soul skill, Golden Dragon Body, with the Golden Dragon Berserk Domain, most Soul Kings would be beaten like dirt by him!
If the opponent has a dragon-type martial soul, even a Soul Emperor would have to kneel down and sing "Conquer" to him!
Wow! Brother, you look so majestic right now! Like a little golden statue!
Na'er, who had been waiting by the side, immediately came over when Xuan Hao came ashore.
Her big eyes blinked as she stared at the golden dragon scales on Xuan Hao's body that had not yet completely disappeared, and she reached out her little hand to touch them.
"Stop, stop, stop!"
Xuan Hao looked down and realized that he was still in a "primitive state".
Although dragon scales covered his key parts, the scene was still too advanced for a child.
His face flushed red, and he quickly covered his private parts, shouting to Na'er:
"Na'er! Quickly bring your brother's clothes!
And... turn around!
Don't look!
Don't you understand 'don't look at what you shouldn't see'?"
"cut..."
Na'er pouted, looking unwilling, and muttered under her breath, "It's not like we haven't seen it before.
You were the one who stripped naked and jumped down that day..."
Despite saying that, she still obediently turned around, took out a clean set of clothes from her storage bracelet, and threw them behind her.
However, while Xuan Hao was hurriedly getting dressed, the little girl couldn't help but secretly peek through a crack in her fingers out of the corner of her eye.
"call..."
After getting dressed, Xuan Hao let out a long breath and released his martial spirit possession, finally dispelling the awkward atmosphere.
He straightened his collar, looked around, but couldn't find Dugu Bo and his grandson.
"Where are Old Poison Master and Yan Yan?"
Xuan Hao asked.
"Grandpa Dugu took Sister Yanyan to hunt for soul rings."
Na'er turned around, put her hands behind her back, and skipped over to Xuan Hao.
"They woke up yesterday.
It seems that Sister Yan Yan broke through to level 30 and needs her third soul ring, so she went out early this morning."
"A third spirit ring?"
Xuan Hao was taken aback.
"So fast?"
He remembered that Dugu Yan was only level 20 before.
Even if evolving a martial soul could increase soul power, the leap was still too big.
"yes."
Na'er nodded and explained like a little adult, "Originally, Sister Bingbing... well, that cold auntie, only planned to guide them in their martial soul evolution."
"But that Sister Yan Yan's cultivation level is too low, and her physical foundation is also weak.
It seems that she can't hold on halfway through her evolution, and her evolution is incomplete."
"So Sister Bingbing asked Grandpa Dugu to pick something called.
Earth Dragon Golden Melon, and gave it to Sister Yanyan to eat."
"After eating that melon, Sister Yan Yan's martial spirit completely changed!"
Na'er gestured and said, "Although it still looks a bit like a snake, it has claws and horns.
Sister Bingbing said that it's called the Azure Phosphorus Poison Dragon."
"And Grandpa Dugu's martial spirit has become even bigger, it's terrifying.
Sister Bingbing said it's called the Azure Phosphorous Dragon Emperor."
"Azure Phosphorous Dragon Emperor..."
Xuan Hao stroked his chin and nodded.
"This name sounds quite imposing, which suits the old poison master's current identity."
"but..."
"Azure Phosphorus Poison Dragon?
That name sounds a bit strange."
"Oh, right, brother!"
As if presenting a treasure, Na'er suddenly leaned close to Xuan Hao and winked mysteriously:
"And there's more good news!"
"What good news?"
Xuan Hao asked instinctively.
"Sister Bingbing not only helped Sister Yanyan evolve, but also helped me awaken my martial soul!"
Na'er took two steps back, opened her arms, and smiled brightly:
"Brother, look!"
"Buzz—"
With a soft murmur, a layer of dazzling silver light suddenly emanated from Na'er's body.
The elements in the surrounding air instantly cheered and jumped for joy.
Water, fire, earth, wind, light, darkness, space... seven elemental points of light danced and swirled around her like fireflies.
Immediately afterwards, an elegant, noble, and enormous dragon phantom covered in silver scales slowly emerged behind her.
Those purple dragon eyes carried an indifferent and majestic air, looking down upon all living beings, yet when they looked at Xuan Hao, a hint of barely perceptible gentleness appeared.
Finally, a bright yellow spirit ring slowly rose from beneath Na'er.
"Silver Dragon!"
Na'er happily pointed to the illusory figure behind her and boasted to Xuan Hao:
"It's exactly the same as the martial soul that my brother hid!"
"I've become a Dragon Soul Master too!"
Seeing this scene, Xuan Hao's smile froze for a moment, but he quickly returned to normal.
Silver Dragon Martial Soul...
It really is the original martial soul.
Looking at Na'er's innocent and carefree appearance, as if she was truly happy just because she had awakened her martial soul, Xuan Hao's feelings became extremely complicated.
Will the Ice Dragon King help with the awakening?
Perhaps they already awakened to it?
This overwhelming elemental affinity, this pure and extreme silver dragon aura.
how could a little girl who has just awakened her martial soul possess this?
"Na'er…"
Xuan Hao sighed softly to himself.
Are you still the same Na'er who relied on me?
Or is this just a performance by Gu Yuena, the Silver Dragon King, the ruler of all soul beasts?
"Brother? Why aren't you saying anything?"
Seeing Xuan Hao in a daze, Na'er put away her martial spirit and leaned closer somewhat nervously, "Is it because Na'er's martial spirit isn't pretty?"
"No."
Xuan Hao snapped out of his reverie, reached out, and gently ruffled the silver hair.
Looking into those clear, deep purple eyes, he said earnestly:
"It looks great."
"It's just as good-looking as my brother's."
