Douro Continent

Chapter 522 The Reason for the Evolution of the Eight Spider Lances Armor

"You..." Liu Erlong had a bad temper. She had been irritable these past few days, and upon hearing this, she immediately flew into a rage. She raised her right hand, and the powerful fluctuations of her soul power instantly suppressed the soul master in front of her.

"Stop!" the master shouted, stopping Liu Erlong's actions.

Grandmaster walked slowly to the Soul Master and nodded to him. "Alright, I'll train with you. As long as I haven't collapsed, you can't stop talking."

Upon hearing this, Liu Erlong became extremely anxious. "Xiaogang, don't be impulsive! You're already so old. Besides, you haven't slept or rested these past few days. How can you withstand this kind of torment?"

The defiant Soul Master curled his lip and muttered, "I knew he was no good. All he does is torture us."

The master's somber gaze fell upon Liu Erlong. "Erlong, you go to the side and continue supervising. I'll practice with them." Although his tone was calm, it was filled with an undeniable authority. Even a strong woman like Liu Erlong didn't dare to contradict him at this moment.

"Master, I should do the work. Let me train with them instead. I want to see just how intense this so-called 'unattainable' training really is."

Upon hearing the voice, the master's icy expression finally softened, and he turned around in surprise to look in the direction of the sound. There stood Tang San, carrying a white rabbit, striding towards them. He quickly arrived before them.

"You're back." Looking at his disciple, the master was overwhelmed with emotion. He didn't even notice Xiao Wu in his arms.

Tang San nodded to Grandmaster, then turned to the middle-aged Soul Master and said, "I will train with you on behalf of Grandmaster. I will double your training. No one has ever been able to figure out the limits of human potential. I am Grandmaster's disciple, and I will prove to you that our teacher's theories are absolutely true."

The middle-aged Soul Master said with some disdain, "You don't even know what we're training before you start bragging. I want to see how you manage to double your training."

Tang San patted Xiao Wu in his arms, walked to Liu Erlong, and handed her over. "Teacher Erlong, could you please hold her for me? This is Xiao Wu."

Liu Erlong was stunned for a moment, then took Xiao Wu from Tang San, not understanding what he meant.

Tang San turned around and walked up to the middle-aged Soul Master, looking him straight in the eye. "If I succeeded, please apologize to your teacher."

As he spoke, he strode to the center of the venue before turning to face the master. "Teacher, please give me your guidance."

Tang San's appearance finally softened the Grandmaster's gaze, and he nodded, saying, "You will run in circles under the oppressive gravity of Wuji. The gravity is three times stronger than normal. Twenty laps. You are not allowed to use soul power or soul skills."

Zhao Wuji was standing in the center of the training ground. With his Soul Douluo strength, he was able to extend his gravity control range to the outer edge of the training ground.

Tang San nodded to Zhao Wuji, "Teacher Zhao, thank you for your trouble. Please give me six times the gravity."

Zhao Wuji smiled slightly and nodded to Tang San. Although his gravity enhancement skill wasn't true gravity control and couldn't weaken gravity, with his current strength, he could at most amplify gravity tenfold.

The third spirit ring shone brightly, and six times the gravity fell directly on Tang San.

Tang San felt a sudden weight on his body and turned his gaze to the students who had stopped. "Please keep an eye on the count for me." As soon as he finished speaking, he ran out.

Tang San didn't run very fast, but each step covered almost the same distance, maintaining a steady pace. He soon reached the outer circle and started running.

Some trainees found it hard to believe that Tang San was experiencing six times the normal gravity, so they instinctively moved closer to him. As Tang San passed in front of them, they immediately felt an immense pressure, their bodies almost collapsing from the weight. Only then could they be certain that Zhao Wuji hadn't gone easy on Tang San.

Of course, this did not allow them to give up their supervision. Every Soul Master carefully observed Tang San, and if he used his Soul Power, there would naturally be fluctuations in his Soul Power, which they could detect immediately.

However, they were soon disappointed. Tang San not only did not use his soul power, but he also began to run faster.

Tang San was no longer the same Tang San of yesteryear. Two hundred years, one thousand years, two ten thousand years, and one hundred thousand years—the four spirit rings had provided an incredibly terrifying boost to his body. Moreover, he had been tempered by two great immortal herbs of ice and fire, and his four spirit bones further amplified his attributes. In terms of physical strength, no one present could compare to him, not even the Immovable King Zhao Wuji.

Soon, ten laps had passed. Tang San's speed increased, but his expression remained unchanged, and his breathing was even. His face was calm, as if nothing had happened.

"Teacher Zhao, let's increase the gravity to the maximum." Tang San shouted to Zhao Wuji as he started the eleventh lap.

Zhao Wuji chuckled inwardly. This little monster really was a little monster. With a master like him looking for trouble, this was going to be quite a show. Thinking this to himself, he aloud warned, "The maximum gravity is ten times the normal force. Be careful." His warning was less directed at Tang San and more at the already stunned students.

Gravity increased again, but Tang San's speed did not slow down at all. The only change was that a blush appeared on his face.

These Soul Masters, belonging to the Heaven Dou Empire's royal family, were all newly transferred. They hadn't witnessed the battle between the Shrek Five Monsters and Zhao Wuji and Flander, so naturally they didn't recognize Tang San. Seeing Tang San running wildly under such terrifying gravity using only his physical strength, everyone was stunned. The burly Soul Master who had previously provoked Grandmaster was even more speechless, staring at him in disbelief.

The twenty laps were over quickly. Tang San ran back to the center of the track, bowed to Grandmaster, and asked, "Teacher, is there anything else?"

The master waved to Tang San, signaling him to come to his side. Tang San quickly came to the master, and at this moment, he only had a slight sweat on his forehead.

A hint of satisfaction flickered in the master's eyes as he turned to the previously boastful middle-aged soul master. "Now tell me, is twenty rotations under three times gravity an impossible task for a human?"

The middle-aged Soul Master stared blankly at Tang San, "You, are you really human?" Upon hearing this, even Grandmaster and Liu Erlong couldn't help but reveal a few smiles on their faces.

Liu Erlong kicked the burly Soul Master to the ground. "Enough nonsense, get back to your units. Everyone who stopped earlier, the lap count is reset. Begin. Anyone who talks nonsense again, don't blame me for being impolite."

The burly Soul Master tumbled and crawled back to the group, unable to resist turning back to look at Tang San, "Brother, what level of Soul Power are you this year? Did Grandmaster train you to have this stamina?"

Tang San nodded to him, "I've been cultivating under my teacher's guidance since I was a child, and I'm currently at level sixty-six."

Thump—, the middle-aged Soul Master's legs gave way and he fell to the ground.

"How much, how much?" His voice was already trembling slightly.

Tang San said calmly, "Level 66. I'm almost 21 years old this year. Are you satisfied? You haven't apologized to your teacher yet." As he spoke, a powerful pressure suddenly emanated from him, instantly spreading throughout the entire area, making every Soul Master in training feel like they couldn't breathe.

These Soul Masters were mostly at the level of forty or fifty in terms of Soul Power. Only Soul Masters above level sixty could exert such pressure on them. Therefore, even though Tang San did not release his Soul Rings, these Soul Masters already believed him without a doubt.

All the Soul Masters of the Heaven Dou Empire were stunned. When the middle-aged Soul Master looked at the Grandmaster again, his expression changed drastically. He bowed respectfully to the Grandmaster and said, "I'm sorry, Grandmaster. I offended you just now. I accept the punishment."

The master calmly said, "Run ten more laps."

The middle-aged Soul Master shuddered, but he quickly rejoined the group and ran with the other Soul Masters under Zhao Wuji's gravity control.

Grandmaster sighed softly, patted Tang San on the shoulder, and said, "If they were all as obedient as you were back then, the Heaven Dou Empire would one day be able to contend with the Spirit Hall."

"Xiao San, you said this is Xiao Wu? What's going on?" Liu Erlong looked at Tang San in confusion.

Tang San hurriedly went to Liu Erlong and took Xiao Wu back into his arms. He realized that even though Xiao Wu had turned into a rabbit, he still felt uneasy after being away from her for only a short while.

"Teacher, Teacher Erlong, let's find a quiet place to talk."

Seeing Tang San's dimmed eyes, Grandmaster and Liu Erlong knew that something must have happened.

The two said nothing more and led Tang San into the nearby woods.

"Little San, speak now." The master nodded to Tang San.

Tang San stroked Xiao Wu in his arms. His emotions, which had finally calmed down these past few days, surged again. Grandmaster was his family; seeing him, all his defenses crumbled. His eyes reddened slightly as he said, "Teacher, you probably guessed it when the Continental Advanced Soul Master Academy Elite Tournament ended: Xiao Wu isn't human. She's a 100,000-year-old soul beast. That's why Bibi Dong wanted to harm her. It was my father who appeared in time and took us away."

Liu Erlong's pupils suddenly contracted. "You're not going to tell me that the little rabbit in your arms is really Xiao Wu, are you?"

Tang San nodded and then recounted in detail the entire process of leaving the academy and entering the Star Dou Great Forest.

When he spoke of Xiao Wu sacrificing herself to save him, he broke down in tears.

"...It's all my fault. I failed to protect Xiao Wu." Holding Xiao Wu's true form, Tang San knelt down in front of Liu Erlong with a thud.

The master's body trembled slightly, and Liu Erlong was also sobbing uncontrollably, her hands gripping Tang San's shoulders tightly, "Spirit Hall, Bibi Dong. I'm going to kill you."

Enraged, Liu Erlong turned and left.

Tang San quickly stepped forward and grabbed Liu Erlong's arm. "Teacher Erlong, please don't be impulsive."

Liu Erlong abruptly shook off Tang San's hand. "Impulsive? How could I not be impulsive? Tang San, if you're still a man, come with me to the Spirit Hall. Even if it means death, I'll make a scene."

"Enough!" the master roared, stopping the enraged Liu Erlong. "What's the point of doing this? It's just a pointless sacrifice. What's done is done; do you want your mistress to go and die with you?"

Staring at the Grandmaster, Liu Erlong's lips trembled. Finally, she threw herself into his arms and burst into tears. Her family was destroyed, her clansmen slaughtered. Even her only emotional support, her goddaughter, had been reduced to this state by the Spirit Hall. The grief and anger in her heart had reached its peak. If she didn't cry it out, she feared she would go insane.

Grandmaster embraced Liu Erlong tightly, then looked at the weeping Tang San. "Alright, a man's a hero doesn't cry. The Spirit Hall owes us, and we'll repay it a hundredfold someday. Xiao Wu's situation isn't your fault. You couldn't have done better. What you need to do now is improve your strength as quickly as possible, reach the Title Douluo level, and help her revive. Do you understand?"

Tang San wiped away his tears and nodded heavily to the master.

The master said, "Calm down first. We need to discuss the blood feud with the Spirit Hall more carefully." Just as she said this, the master suddenly swayed. Liu Erlong, who was in her arms and touching him, immediately realized what was happening and quickly hugged the master tightly, only to find that his face was deathly pale. He had fainted.

"Teacher, what's wrong?" Tang San was startled and rushed forward to help Liu Erlong support the master as he lay on the ground.

Liu Erlong wept and said, "Ever since the family was destroyed, he has been constantly working under pressure, not giving himself a chance to breathe. And then you brought this bad news about Xiao Wu. Plus, seeing you relax a bit, his body finally couldn't take it anymore. Xiao San, if you had come a few days later, I don't know what would have happened to him."

Tang San took out a roll of dragon fungus leaves from his Ruyi Treasure Pouch and put it into the master's mouth. He then placed his hands between the master's chest and abdomen and began to massage them slowly.

His soul power was the Mysterious Heaven Skill, the most authentic Taoist internal energy cultivation technique. Under his deliberate control, the balanced and peaceful internal energy swirled around the master's chest and abdomen, stimulating the medicinal effects of the Dragon Mushroom Leaf to enter the master's bloodline, helping him to strengthen his foundation and cultivate his vitality.

The master's physical condition was relatively good, and he had also eaten the purple ganoderma given to him by Tang San. Now, under the influence of Tang San's dragon ganoderma leaf and the Xuan Tian Gong, he breathed a long sigh of relief and slowly woke up in a short while.

"Phew—" Slowly opening his eyes, the master saw Tang San and Liu Erlong's anxious eyes, and forced himself to be strong, "I'm fine."

Tang San said seriously, "Teacher, you can't go on like this. If your health collapses, who will lead us to fight against the Spirit Hall? You're mentally exhausted and need to rest more. Don't say anything more, even if I have to tie you up, I'll make sure you get some rest. Leave the training of those spirit masters to Teacher Zhao and Teacher Erlong."

Seeing the gazes of Tang San and Liu Erlong, the Grandmaster finally gave in. He forced back his tears of pain, closed his eyes, and silently nodded.

Men always live more tiring lives than women. Men don't cry, not because they aren't sad, but because they have to be strong. No matter what happens, they keep it all bottled up inside. This is precisely why men's lifespans are consistently shorter than women's.

Tang San carried Master back to his dormitory. He stayed by Master's side until he fell asleep before leaving the room. He had many things to say to Master, but now was clearly not the time. He had to wait until Master's health had improved somewhat.

Seeing that the master was finally able to rest, Liu Erlong breathed a sigh of relief. The exhaustion of the past few days had finally worn her down, and she fell asleep next to the master.

After closing the door for them, Tang San left their room and went straight to the dean's office to find Flander. He told him about Xiao Wu.

After listening to Tang San's account, Flander, though not as agitated as Liu Erlong, was still furious and his three corpses raged. It took him a while to gradually calm down.

"Mistress, what are you planning to do now that you're back?" Flander asked.

Tang San said, "I plan to cultivate for a while first, and then make some useful hidden weapons."

Flander nodded and said, "Rongrong and Ma Hongjun are also cultivating at the academy now. You can train together. Mu Bai and Zhu Qing have returned to the Star Luo Empire. If you need anything, just come to me. The Heaven Dou Empire is giving us full support now. Resources are not a problem."

Tang San nodded and said, "Then I'll have to trouble you."

Flander looked at Xiao Wu in Tang San's arms, his eyes filled with sadness. "What's the trouble? I raised all of you little monsters myself. I've never married in my life; you're like my own children. Seeing Xiao Wu like this, I really wish I could storm the Spirit Hall with Erlong. Alright, let's not talk about this anymore. You must be tired from your journey; go and rest. Rongrong and Ma Hongjun are staying at the forest cabin where you used to cultivate. It's a big place; you should go there too. Rongrong has been in a bad mood lately; the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School's direct descendants have suffered heavy casualties. Sigh, why do you kids have to encounter so many things..."

The three monsters reunited, but joy was elusive. Tang San settled down in the wooden cabin in the woods. After learning about Xiao Wu's situation, Ning Rongrong and Ma Hongjun were overcome with grief, and the hatred towards the Spirit Hall among the group had reached its peak.

three days later.

He sat cross-legged in his wooden hut, with Xiao Wu beside him. Strangely, even if Tang San didn't take care of her, Xiao Wu, who had reverted to her original form and lost consciousness, would never crawl out of the five-meter radius around Tang San's body.

For the past three days, Tang San has been cultivating, consolidating Xiao Wu's 100,000-year soul ring and the soul power boost brought about by the evolution of the Eight Spider Lances.

Tang San discovered that although his soul power had increased by six levels this time, the rapid increase had made his foundation somewhat unstable. For a long time to come, he would have to cultivate to stabilize his soul power. Once a soul master reaches level sixty, their growth rate will significantly decrease, even for geniuses like them. Tang San understood that he couldn't rush things, otherwise it would only have the opposite effect. Therefore, he cultivated steadily and diligently.

He knew that compared to his father, he was still lucky; at least Xiao Wu had a chance to be resurrected and could always stay by his side. Whenever he wasn't cultivating, Tang San would carry Xiao Wu outside to breathe fresh air and bask in the sun, sharing his innermost thoughts with her.

The practice was completed, ending a major cycle. The internal energy of the Xuan Tian Gong became even more stable. After breaking through to the sixth level of the Xuan Tian Gong, which is equivalent to level sixty soul power, he could now project his internal energy externally. In Tang San's previous world, this was also known as protective qi. This is why he needed to stabilize his internal energy. Otherwise, the protective qi would have flaws and wouldn't be able to provide comprehensive protection for his body.

He exhaled a long breath, a wisp of white vapor escaping his mouth, a subtle sound like a dragon's roar reverberating around Tang San's body. With his eight extraordinary meridians now open, his Mysterious Heaven Skill had entered another level of cultivation. Having gained experience from his previous life, and with the guidance of his master in this one, Tang San knew very well that in cultivation, stability was paramount.

With a slight shift in his gaze, Tang San stood up, opened the door, and found Grandmaster standing quietly at his doorway. After a few days of rest, Grandmaster's complexion looked much better, but the icy coldness in his eyes showed no sign of disappearing; on the contrary, it had become even more intense.

"Teacher." Tang San quickly ushered the master into the room. He knew that the master hadn't just arrived, but hadn't knocked because he didn't want to disturb his cultivation. Although it was just a small detail, it showed how much the master cared for him.

The master looked at his beloved disciple, a rare smile appearing on his face. "I'm alright now. Little San, let me see that soul bone armor you mentioned." He had dedicated most of his life to the research of martial souls, and although he had fainted that day, Tang San's words had remained in his heart. He was particularly concerned about this kind of highly unusual situation.

Tang San, knowing Grandmaster's temperament, didn't say much. He took off his shirt, carried Xiao Wu aside, and placed her on the bed. He immediately activated his soul power, releasing his second-evolved Eight Spider Lances.

When the crimson Eight Spider Lances burst forth from Tang San's back, Grandmaster Yu Xiaogang gasped in shock. A thick, pungent stench of blood emanated from the spears, now shortened to just over three meters long, filling the entire room with a violent aura. Even Tang San's eyes took on a bloodshot hue.

Strangely, the armor did not appear this time. Tang San only felt a burning sensation on his back. After the heat spread across his back, it did not extend further and did not protect his front like last time. The other three soul bones also did not react.

Tang San was somewhat surprised as he channeled his soul power into the Eight Spider Spears, but the spears only became slightly more blood-red, without undergoing any further mutations.

"Teacher, it wasn't like this last time," Tang San said anxiously. He didn't want the master to think that he had exaggerated before.

A thoughtful glint appeared in the master's eyes. "Don't move." With that, he quickly walked behind Tang San, carefully examining his Eight Spider Lances.

While Tang San couldn't see what was behind him, the Grandmaster clearly saw a layer of fiery red plate armor covering his entire back. Its structure perfectly mirrored his back muscles, as if it were part of his body. With each movement of Tang San's upper limbs, the armor moved in sync with the muscles. This was why Tang San could only feel the heat but not anything else. This armor on his back was a perfect fit for his body.

After examining the armor on Tang San's back, the master carefully observed the Eight Spider Lances that had changed. The surface of the Eight Spider Lances was covered with a layer of blood-red light about an inch thick, and the evil bloody aura was extremely strong. Upon closer inspection, one could even detect a few eerie auras within them.

The master walked from behind Tang San to stand in front of him again and said, "Tell me again in detail how you felt at that time."

Tang San nodded and said, "At the time, I just felt that the Eight Spider Lances had changed, turning completely blood red. At the same time, my back felt very hot, a burning sensation spreading from my back to my chest. Then I saw the appearance of red armor. Just as I thought the Eight Spider Lances had mutated, my other three soul bones also changed, extending armor that combined with the armor on my body. However, each soul bone gave me a different feeling due to its different attributes. But when they combined with the Eight Spider Lances armor on my chest and abdomen, they all turned into red armor. It felt like, besides enhancing my defense, all my skills were also combined, each skill had a certain amplification effect, while the consumption of soul power was greatly reduced."

"At that time, I felt as if something inside my body had shattered, and something else had fused together. But the sensation produced by each soul bone was different, which made me very uncomfortable. However, the increase in strength was certain. While all my previous skills remained unchanged, the soul power consumed when using soul skills decreased by 10%, while the power increased by 10%. With this trade-off, it was equivalent to a significant increase in my overall strength."

A look of surprise appeared in the master's eyes. He suddenly clapped his hands. "I understand. It seems my guess was correct. Although it's only in its early stages, it's very likely you will acquire that special skill."

Tang San looked at the master with some confusion, "Teacher, what skill are you talking about?"

The master said in a deep voice, "I'm talking about the Soul-Bone Fusion Technique."

"Soul Bone Fusion Technique? Teacher, you don't seem to have mentioned this to me before." This was the first time Tang San had ever heard of this term. He only knew about Martial Soul Fusion Techniques, and had never heard of any Soul Bone Fusion Technique.

The master sighed and said, "I never told you this before because I didn't think you would have the chance to come into contact with the Soul Bone Fusion Technique in your lifetime. But I never expected that you would be so fortunate as to be able to come into contact with this remote field."

Tang San couldn't help but ask, "Teacher, what exactly is a Soul Bone Fusion Technique?"

The master said, "This is a realm that almost no one can reach. As far as I know, there is only one person in the current Soul Master world who may possess this skill. The so-called Soul Bone Fusion Skill is an additional skill produced after one's own Soul Bones are fused together. Generally speaking, this kind of skill is extremely powerful, and its amplification to oneself is no less than that of a Martial Soul Fusion Skill used by two Soul Masters working together. Moreover, because the Soul Bones are generated by oneself, the fusion rate can generally reach more than 70%."

Tang San said, "Then it shouldn't be that having two or more soul bones will automatically grant this skill. Otherwise, you wouldn't have said it's so rare."

The master nodded and said, "Of course it's not that easy. For a Soul Bone Fusion Skill to appear is harder than climbing to heaven. A Martial Soul Fusion Skill only depends on the compatibility between Martial Souls. But a Soul Bone Fusion Skill depends on the attributes of the Soul Bones and a large amount of luck. The biggest difficulty preventing the appearance of a Soul Bone Fusion Skill is that, to have this skill appear, you must first collect all six Soul Bones. Only then is there a one in a thousand chance that a Soul Bone Fusion Skill will appear."

After hearing the master's explanation, Tang San finally understood the difficulty of acquiring this skill. He exclaimed in surprise, "So you're saying that the armor I'm wearing is a Soul Bone Fusion Skill? But even with the Eight Spider Lances, I only have four Soul Bones!"

Hearing Tang San's words, Grandmaster couldn't help but smile bitterly, "Aren't you satisfied yet? You don't know that even a Title Douluo-level expert might not be able to possess a soul bone, but you have four at once, two of which were produced by 100,000-year-old soul beasts. You are truly blessed by heaven."

Tang San chuckled awkwardly, "Maybe I was just lucky. You know, if I could, I would never want to have those two 100,000-year-old soul bones."

Compared to the soul bone, his mother and Xiao Wu are far more important. If given a choice, Tang San would not hesitate to resurrect his mother and Xiao Wu.

The master said, "There's another extremely demanding condition for the Soul Bone Fusion Technique to be created: all six Soul Bones one possesses must be from the same type of Soul Beast. Imagine how rare it is to find Soul Bones, especially those from different parts of the same Soul Beast. What are the odds of that? In all the history I know, only the Spirit Hall possesses such a set of inherited Soul Bones. Yet, I've never heard of anyone being able to completely fuse all six Soul Bones. Bibi Dong is exceptionally fortunate, possessing twin Martial Souls. The only person I'm talking about who might have the potential to possess the Soul Bone Fusion Technique is her."

Upon hearing the master mention Bibi Dong, Tang San's face revealed a strong hatred. It was this woman who gave the orders that turned Xiao Wu into what she is now. The destruction of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School and the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan was probably also related to her.

The master gave Tang San a deep look. "The situation you're experiencing seems to be a precursor to a soul bone fusion skill. The reason it hasn't happened a second time is because your soul bone isn't complete, and you haven't reached the level where you can use this skill."

Tang San frowned and said, "But the soul bones on my body are not from the same type of soul beast, so why can I have a soul bone fusion technique?"

The master said, "This is what I'm about to say. If I'm not mistaken, the reason for this situation is your Eight Spider Lances. The six soul bones required for the Soul Bone Fusion Technique are the most orthodox six soul bones. However, the signs of the Soul Bone Fusion Technique appearing on you now are emitted by an external soul bone that is not one of the six soul bones. In other words, the Eight Spider Lances became the guide for you to generate this skill. As an external soul bone, it has evolved multiple times as your strength has increased. Especially this time, under the stimulation of Xiao Wu's 100,000-year soul ring and the energy of a human-faced demon spider with tens of thousands of years of cultivation, it has undergone a qualitative leap. This leap has also given it an additional ability, acting like a bridge to help you connect all the soul bones. However, to what extent this skill can reach, even I don't know."

"As you said, when that armor appeared, each soul bone gave you a different feeling, making you very uncomfortable. This is because your soul bones were not produced by the same soul beast. Although the Eight Spider Lances are connected through them, they are not strong enough to assimilate these soul bones. Nor will they be able to in the future. After all, even if it evolves further, it can only be equivalent to a 100,000-year soul bone at most. Therefore, whether a true soul bone fusion technique will appear in the future depends on whether you will undergo changes when you obtain the later soul bones, especially when the main body bone is used."

After hearing the master's explanation, Tang San finally understood his physical condition. Although the master said it was just a guess, Tang San knew very well that his teacher would never speak without reason. If even he didn't recognize it, then probably no one in the Soul Master world would know what was going on.

The master said in a deep voice, "Don't focus your energy on researching this. Researching soul-bone fusion techniques is my business. What you need to do is continue to cultivate diligently. After all, while this skill is good for you, it's too ethereal. The possibility of you actually being able to use it is slim. What's more crucial for you is to improve your own strength, but your cultivation must be steady. Your improvement speed is already fast enough. You must make your foundation more solid before you can continue to advance."
