call.

Upon hearing Chen Hong's voice, Haiya and his several Soul Emperor confidants exchanged glances, each seeing lingering worry on the other's face. Finally, they all breathed a heavy sigh of relief.

Over the past few months, Hague and Barry from Soto City often chatted privately. With Ning Fengxun joining them, the three of them, after consolidating the information, finally understood the importance of Chen Hong to the entire Technology Chamber of Commerce and the Spirit Hall.

In particular, the mysterious expert from the Spirit Hall who had previously followed Chen Hong made Hague and the others understand even more deeply the terrifying energy contained within Chen Hong.

If Chen Hong were to make even the slightest mistake with them, Hague felt that his burgeoning and exciting life might have already come to an end.

This is just an analysis of the pros and cons based on Chen Hong's identity. If it comes down to personal feelings, Hague and the others also do not want anything to happen to Chen Hong here.

Chen Hong was quite different from everyone they had met before. He didn't compete or fight, but he loved to make a big cake so that everyone could get a share and eat their fill.

He used to be a Soul Master, now he's a Soul Beast. Chen Hong seems to be exploring a completely new way of life, a better way of life that no one would refuse.

How could The Hague and others develop a profound respect for such a person, someone who has consistently done practical things for them, after a long period of contact?

There was once a renowned master on the mainland, known as the most learned and talented soul master theorist in the world.

(Yu Xiaogang: I've already run so far! Don't call me!)

Previously, Hague and others didn't have a clear understanding of figures like Master Yu Xiaogang because they couldn't find a comparable example. Now, however, they finally understand the difference between Chen Hong and Yu Xiaogang. The former focuses on practical work, remaining silent until he makes a profound and transformative statement. The latter, on the other hand, achieves some success but then rests on his laurels, complacent and unambitious, offering empty rhetoric and grandstanding.

"Hey, you guys keep a close watch on the door and make sure no one disturbs the young guild leader's rest." Inside the cabin, Hague sighed softly to his confidants. "I need to go talk to the Soul Masters and tell them to become self-reliant as soon as possible and stop bothering the young guild leader with everything. I've seen him working tirelessly for the construction of the Sea Soul Islands these past few months, and it's been weighing heavily on my mind."

Hmm. Hague was clearly unaware that, due to his extremely powerful mental strength, Chen Hong slept very little, often remaining in a state of high alert for several days before taking a short break.

"Don't worry, Commander!" The trusted men nodded firmly.

"That's good." Hague nodded, sighed softly, and then looked up at the other Soul Masters on the ship who had rushed over upon hearing the news. He then gathered the group of Soul Masters, who all looked worried, and held a small meeting.

Meanwhile, inside the room, Chen Hong lay on the bed looking extremely tired. He closed his eyes and silently endured the swelling in his brain.

"What kind of external soul bone is this? It completely depleted my mental power in just a moment of activation. I've never heard of anything like it." Chen Hong muttered to himself, enduring the swelling in his brain.

Yes, what made Chen Hong look so tired all of a sudden was a very special external soul bone.

Soul Masters can generally only absorb six soul bones: the head soul bone, the skeletal soul bone, two arm soul bones, and two leg soul bones. Anything else is called an external soul bone.

For example, Tang San's Eight Spider Lances are external soul bones of the torso type. Historically, there have also been external soul bones that only consist of half a hand. In short, all soul bones that do not belong to the traditional six soul bones are called external soul bones.

Another characteristic of external soul bones is that they can be plundered before they are fully fused, just like ordinary soul bones. However, if they are fully fused, the external soul bone will lose the 'inheritance' of traditional soul bones and become the soul master's private soul bone, which will also be destroyed when the soul master dies.

The formation of external soul bones is also very magical. It is not produced by absorbing soul bones, but when a soul master is lucky enough to absorb a soul ring, an external soul bone will be generated in their body after absorbing the soul ring!

Does this scene feel familiar?

Yes, in the "Three Souls Theory," the external soul bone is one of the important pieces of evidence that Chen Hong believes "soul bones and soul rings are different in form but the same in essence."

Now, whether due to sheer bad luck or she defied the heavens, Chen Hong found that after absorbing the ten-thousand-year soul ring of the Demonic Tiger Whale, signs of an external soul bone forming within his body actually appeared.

Unlike Tang San, who was able to crawl around on the ground soon after absorbing the spirit ring of the Human-Faced Demon Spider, Chen Hong's external spirit bone took two full months to fully take shape.

During this period, Chen Hong wondered more than once if something dirty had gotten into his eyes because of the spirit ring imprint.

Lying on the bed, Chen Hong rubbed his eyes, forcing a smile in his heart: "But this so-called external soul bone... is it probably just being misled by its strange martial soul? Is it constantly shouting inside its body: 'Where's my martial soul? Where's my martial soul? Where's such a huge martial soul?'"

Currently, Chen Hong knows almost nothing about his external soul bone, so he can only offer some seemingly reasonable speculations about the two months it takes for his external soul bone to develop.

For example, a soul bone is a soul ring, and a soul ring is a soul bone. Since an external soul bone appears in one's body in the form of a soul ring, it must overcome the barrier of one's own martial soul power. Soul rings are all attached to martial soul power, and martial soul power has an astonishing control over soul rings. As a soul ring smuggler, an external soul bone trying to smuggle itself out of martial soul power is clearly wishful thinking.

Therefore, this external soul bone was devoured by the martial soul's mental power while it was still in soul ring form? And then, because the external soul bone is a new soul ring, that is, a new divine rune, the world rules do not allow the martial soul's mental power to obtain two divine rune soul rings in one realm? So the martial soul's mental power had to spit out the external soul bone that it had just devoured but could not digest and had nowhere to put back.

Hmm. Although it feels a bit bizarre, logically speaking, it seems surprisingly reasonable?

but.

"Sigh, I always feel like all my skills are 'anti-Chen Hong skills'," Chen Hong complained helplessly.
