Douluo: Starting from the Nine-Curved Vine Dragon

Chapter 114 Shi Nian's Ambition

The soul bone that Lin Rong gave to Shi Nian was the youngest soul bone he had at his disposal, namely the left leg bone of the Green Wood Twin Lotus that was more than 33,000 years old.

Originally, he wanted to keep this soul bone so that he could use it to help Yue Guan in the future.

But who can blame him for the fact that the other soul bones in his hand are much older than this one? The only one that is less than 50,000 years old is the head soul bone that Shi Nian already has.

The other soul bones are more than 50,000 years old and their integrity is extremely good. It would be unfair to give them to Shi Nian.

After all, as the sharpest blade in his hand in the future, Ma Hongjun's six soul bones still require his concern.

Lin Rong does not have high requirements for Ma Hongjun's soul bone configuration. He does not necessarily have to equip him with a hundred thousand year soul bone, but at least each soul bone must ensure excellent integrity, so the age of the soul bone cannot be less than fifty thousand years.

At present, there are only three of the six soul bones obtained from Tang Hao left: torso bone, skull bone, and right leg bone.

Among these three soul bones, only the head soul bone is less than 50,000 years old, and the remaining two soul bones are more than 50,000 years old.

Therefore, the conventional locations of the six soul bones are: torso, head, right arm, left arm, left leg, and right leg.

There are options for the torso bone and left leg bone, but the remaining four positions are still lacking soul bones.

As for the source and difficulty of obtaining soul bones, Lin Rong didn't care at all.

In the process of unifying the continent and the ocean in the future, it will be common to confiscate families and destroy clans. Among those families and sects with a long history, there will always be a few whose inherited soul bones are more than 50,000 years old.

On the Tiandou Empire side, the Qibao and Landian sects knew enough to know that the probability of the two sects possessing inherited soul bones that were more than 50,000 years old was almost zero.

As for the Xingluo Empire, the original novel does not focus much on it, but given the heritage of the Xingluo royal family and the hidden sect Xingguan Sect, the probability that there are soul bones in their inherited soul bones that are more than 50,000 years old is not low.

Even if the positions of soul bones overlap or cannot be gathered together, we can just lead people to sweep the Star Dou Great Forest for soul beasts with cultivation levels of more than 50,000 years, and we can gather them all, and even have a lot of surplus soul bones.

……

After Shi Nian returned, he absorbed the ten thousand year old left leg bone immediately.

After he absorbed the tremendous soul power remaining in the soul bone, his own soul power cultivation level increased by one and a half levels, and his soul power broke through from level seventy-two and a half to the beginning of level seventy-four.

Shi Nian carefully felt the changes in himself and whispered to himself:
"Although this soul bone is the second least precious left leg bone among the six soul bones, it is over 33,000 years old."

"This left leg bone improves my aptitude by about 50% more than the aptitude improvement that my 20,000-year-old illusionary wisdom skull has given me."

"With two ten thousand year soul bones in my body, I can successfully cultivate my soul power to level eighty-nine, but it is far from enough to break through the bottleneck of level ninety!"

Speaking of this, Shi Nian's eyes were filled with an extreme desire for soul bones.

Only when one cultivates to the level of Titled Douluo can one see what the other party has experienced in the illusion.

This is also his pursuit of greatness in this life.

Shi Nian also understood that his innate soul power was less than level eight, and the possibility of cultivating to the Titled Douluo realm with this innate qualification alone was very slim.

Therefore, he set his sights on the soul bone.

Hard work pays off. After several years, he finally got a 20,000-year-old fantasy wisdom skull by chance. But a 20,000-year-old soul bone is far from enough. If he wants to steadily break through the bottleneck of level 90, he needs more soul bones with higher age.

At that time, when Nian learned that the Spirit Hall had begun to build momentum for the Golden Generation, he was certain that according to the Spirit Hall's usual style, they would definitely offer a Ten Thousand Year Soul Bone as a reward for the champion in the All-Continent Advanced Soul Master Elite Competition of the Golden Generation.

In order to win the championship reward of that competition, Shi Nian chose to join an ordinary academy among a number of high-level soul master academies, and got the position of vice-president of the academy with the cultivation level of Soul Emperor.

At the same time, Shi Nian is constantly looking for seven students with gem martial spirits, and is constantly perfecting his idea of ​​the seven-in-one fusion technique.

But this matter did not last long, because he was subdued by that adult and became his subordinate during the competition nearly two years ago.

"Fortunately, this lord was very generous. Whether it was the magical herb last time or the ten thousand year soul bone this time, both benefited me a lot and gave me hope to continue to explore the realm of Titled Douluo."

Shi Nian thought that he was extremely concerned about tonight's mission, not only because it was related to his life, but also because the results of the mission could help him go further on the path of a soul master.

"My Lord wants me to extract the secret formula of Xuan Tian Gong from Tang San. After completing the task, as the first great contributor, I will be qualified to practice Xuan Tian Gong."

"Tang Sect in another world, practicing techniques and meridians."

"If this Xuan Tian Gong is really as powerful as described on that piece of white paper, then after practicing this technique, it will be easy for me to open up the eight extraordinary meridians and break through to the realm of Titled Douluo."

Shi Nian thought to himself and looked forward to the arrival of night more and more.

……

Time passed in the waiting, and finally it was night.

The winter night was very cold, and there were howling winds, so no one from the Tang Sect was willing to work the night shift in such an environment.

Therefore, Shi Nian did not need to hide his figure deliberately. He just restrained his own breath and walked in the Tang Clan mansion as if he was in an empty place.

Not long after, Shi Nian walked lightly to the door of the master's bedroom.

By the candlelight burning in the bedroom, Shi Nian vaguely saw a figure sitting cross-legged on the bed, seemingly meditating and practicing.

"This Sect Master Tang is quite diligent in his training."

Shi Nian sighed in his heart, and a special incense appeared in his hand. After lighting it, he used his soul power to silently send the smoke into the bedroom.

This incense is made of the finest rosemary, which can make anyone who smells it fall into a deep sleep without being prepared. It is also something that Lin Rong had people prepare specially for Shi Nian's action tonight.

Although Tang San’s current Purple Demon Pupil’s level is not yet able to break through illusions, it still allows him to know that he is facing an illusion.

In order to ensure that Tang San has no idea of ​​tonight's actions, it is necessary to let him fall into a deep sleep before Shi Nian uses the nightmare.

The raw material of the incense, rosemary, is taken from the Yin-Yang Eyes of Ice and Fire.

Therefore, the smoke produced by burning incense has extraordinary effects.

In less than three seconds, a slight sound came from the bedroom, and Tang San, who was sitting cross-legged on the bed, fell headfirst onto the quilt.
