It was a miniature version of a human right arm bone, as translucent as ice crystals and as sharply defined as a diamond. The entire bone was perfectly intact, radiant with light, enough to captivate countless people.

This is a right arm bone of extremely high quality. Based on the characteristics of the Diamond Mammoth, fusing with this soul bone will greatly enhance the strength of the soul master's right arm, while also granting them a Diamond Mammoth innate soul skill. And this innate soul skill is, in most cases, a defensive soul skill.

With his right hand outstretched, the soul bone, drawn by soul power, fell into Xu Zihuang's hand.

Not far behind him, Bei Bei, who was preparing to release his martial soul to provide support, finally relaxed. If he hadn't known Yu Tianhuang's personality so well, he probably would have already made his move.

His gaze toward Xu Zihuang was filled with a complex mix of shock and a sense of entitlement, and he smiled bitterly to himself.

"I'm afraid I'll never be able to catch up with Tianhuang in my lifetime."

Beibei, who usually appears indifferent to worldly affairs but is actually quite proud, once again felt a sense of defeat from Yu Tianhuang.

Witnessing the terrifying destructive power of Yu Tianhuang's fifth soul skill, Mental Storm, was only one aspect. What frustrated him most was the gap in their progress in cultivating Elder Mu's supreme battle technique.

As a descendant of Elder Mu, Bei Bei's martial spirit bloodline is directly inherited from Elder Mu. It can be said that he was personally trained by Elder Mu.

Compared to Yu Tianhuang, he had to start learning about the "Reign of the World" combat skill, which was not a soul skill but was even better than a soul skill, much earlier.

However, Yu Tianhuang mastered the art of ruling the world in less than a year and a half and incorporated his own understanding, while it took him four to five years to barely master it.

These were all things he had personally experienced when he sparred with Yu Tianhuang some time ago.

Now free from the sonic wave-like soul skill of that 30,000-year-old diamond mammoth, Tang Ya, having recovered, stared wide-eyed in disbelief.

In her eyes, Xu Zihuang was now even more attractive than the soul bone.

Unlike Bei Bei and Ning Tian, ​​she hadn't personally witnessed Xu Zihuang's amazing performance in that year's All-Continent Advanced Soul Master Academy Battle Tournament. Although she knew Yu Tianhuang was very strong, her understanding of him was still based on the time three years ago when he single-handedly crushed Huo Yuhao, Wang Dong, and Xiao Xiao.

Only now did she realize just how powerful this junior she had grown so fond of actually was.

The only one who seemed relatively calm was Ning Tian. In her eyes, no matter what shocking things Yu Tianhuang did, she would take it all for granted.

The boy in her heart will always be so dazzling.

Even Elder Bone, who had been secretly following behind the group, took a long time to withdraw his gaze, and sighed softly with a smile on his face.

"This child's talent is even greater than I imagined. The Blue Lightning Tyrannosaurus Rex family truly produces a wealth of talent."

Xu Zihuang put away the two ivory tusks stuck in the ground, and with the soul bone in his right hand, he came to the three of them.

Ning Tian needed no further explanation, and Bei Bei and Tang Ya's gazes were also very clear. Even if this soul bone wasn't suitable for them, it was obtained by Yu Tianhuang alone after killing that 30,000-year-old diamond mammoth. What did it have to do with them?

These are the unspoken rules among Soul Master teams. Of course, temporarily assembled teams are a different story; for those teams, it's perfectly normal for them to fight tooth and nail over a single Soul Bone.

"It's a pity, this is a right arm bone. If it were a soul bone from another part of the body, after you fused with it, it should have given you an extra soul skill to protect yourself," Xu Zihuang said to Ning Tian with some regret.

Ning Tian's fourth spirit ring, like the spirit beast that produced this spirit bone, is a Diamond Mammoth. Even if it's not a perfect match, the compatibility is definitely not an issue.

His words didn't seem insincere. He wouldn't even consider a 30,000-year-old soul bone unsuitable for him. Within his power, he wouldn't mind repaying Ning Tian, ​​making her even more devoted to him.

Ning Tian smiled and shook his head.

"What is destined to happen will happen eventually. Didn't Senior Brother Bei and Senior Sister Xiaoya say before that a lot of the time it depends on luck?"

She was very open-minded; with her knowledge and experience, she wouldn't be so anxious about losing such a piece of soul bone.

Beibei could tell that Xu Zihuang had just exerted himself quite a bit, and said seriously, "Tianhuang, you should recover your strength first. It's already dark, and we can't retreat to the outer area now. We'll probably have to spend the night in this mixed zone."

"Hmm." Xu Zihuang solemnly responded. After storing the right arm bone that had broken off from the 30,000-year-old diamond mammoth into his soul tool, he sat down cross-legged to recover his soul power and mental strength.

In this perilous Star Dou Great Forest, it's always better to be careful.

Everyone stood around Xu Zihuang to protect him.

However, Bei Bei bears the brunt of the responsibility. The soul beasts that roam the mixed zone are either large groups of soul beasts or solitary soul beasts with at least three thousand years of cultivation. Not to mention Ning Tian, ​​who is a support-type soul master, even Tang Ya can only provide assistance from the sidelines at most.

Tang Ya looked at Xu Zihuang, who was meditating, pursed her lips, and said solemnly.

"Junior Ning Tian, ​​although Tianhuang isn't the type to actively attract attention, there will be no shortage of girls who want to pursue him in the future, so you'd better keep a close eye on him."

After spending time together, she had long since accepted Ning Tian. Despite hailing from the Nine Treasure Glazed Tile School, a top-tier soul master sect, Ning Tian never gave off an arrogant or condescending air. Furthermore, their Tang Sect and the Nine Treasure Glazed Tile School had a deep connection; it was the Nine Treasure Glazed Tile School that provided funding for the Tang Sect's initial prosperity. Even in modern times, the Nine Treasure Glazed Tile School had provided some financial assistance to the declining Tang Sect.

She certainly hoped that Ning Tian and Yu Tianhuang could be together for a long time.

Ning Tian, ​​who was quietly watching Xu Zihuang, couldn't help but have a glint in her beautiful eyes when she heard Tang Ya's words.

Actually, she was well aware of this even without Tang Ya's reminder. However, so far, only two people have truly made her feel pressured.

One is Ma Xiaotao, who is the captain of the Shrek Academy team in the All-Continent Advanced Soul Master Academy Battle Tournament, and the other is Meng Hongchen from the Sun Moon Royal Soul Master Academy.

These two are also exceptionally talented, and even surpass her in cultivation ability.

But she also has her own strengths. Instead of worrying about these things, she should focus on improving herself.

Ning Tian, ​​who picked up where Tang Ya left off, didn't dwell on it and naturally changed the subject.

Nearly half an hour passed quickly amidst the two women's hushed conversation.

During this time, Xu Zihuang reopened his eyes, the fatigue in them vanished, and he displayed an amazing ability to recover.

The improvement in his mental strength level greatly enhanced the recovery speed of his soul power and mental strength.

Xu Zihuang and Bei Bei took turns keeping watch, and the night passed peacefully. The aura of the 30,000-year-old diamond mammoth's blood was still quite intimidating, and no soul beast dared to approach throughout the night.

The following morning, the group continued their journey into the mixed zone under Xu Zihuang's guidance.

In the early mornings of winter, the temperature in the Starry Sky Forest is rather low, and the air is very moist, thus forming a misty morning fog. The dense fog is cold and damp, carrying the fresh scent of plants and earth, and drifts on the wind.

The sun had not yet risen, and it was the time of day when the fog was thickest, with extremely low visibility all around.

However, the dense fog posed no threat to Xu Zihuang, Bei Bei, and Tang Ya. Xu Zihuang relied on his Golden Eye Martial Soul's ability to see through the essence of all things, while Bei Bei and Tang Ya used their Purple Demon Eyes to observe their surroundings.

However, Tang Ya and Bei Bei could not see as clearly as Xu Zihuang.

Just as the sun was rising and the fog was about to dissipate, Xu Zihuang suddenly stopped.

"arrive."

As if in response to his words, a dense rustling sound arose from all directions. Not only Xu Zihuang, but also Ning Tian, ​​Tang Ya, and Bei Bei saw the source of the sound.

They were spiders the size of human heads, their bodies covered in black exoskeletons. Their eight long legs moved rapidly, creating a series of afterimages. On their undersides were white markings that formed a pale human face. On this face were eight small eyes that shimmered with an eerie purple light.

These were the human-faced demon spiders, a type of soul beast. Although none of these human-faced demon spiders had cultivated for more than a hundred years, their numbers reached an astonishing hundreds. They were densely packed together, looking quite eerie.

Chapter 239 Bloodline Awakening - Blue Silver Emperor

Beibei surveyed the swarm of human-faced spiders approaching them from all sides, took a step forward with her right foot, and her aura suddenly surged.

A dazzling blue light shone from between his eyebrows, faintly condensing into a lightning bolt mark. Then, the blue light instantly spread throughout his body, with blue-purple snake-like lightning coursing up and down, and his body suddenly swelled up a bit.

His arms had completely transformed into massive dragon arms, with blue-purple dragon scales spreading from his arms all over his body, even covering half of his face.

His demeanor underwent a dramatic change, becoming domineering and sharp.

Two yellow, two purple, and one black—five perfectly matched soul rings appeared one after another.

As Bei Bei's cultivation broke through to the Soul King realm, the degree of his dragon transformation naturally deepened. Dragon transformation is also a major advantage of the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Martial Soul as a top-tier beast Martial Soul.

Although the four of them are very close, it would be inappropriate for Yu Tianhuang to always be the one to hunt spirit beasts and obtain spirit rings for Tang Ya.

"Beibei, let me help you." Tang Ya's expression changed slightly.

The Human-Faced Demon Spider is far more terrifying than the Mandragora Snake they encountered before, and is known as the nightmare of small and medium-sized soul beasts. Even though these Human-Faced Demon Spiders, which are only about the size of a human head and are only at the ten-year level, are still more troublesome than many hundred-year soul beasts.

This is a racial advantage. Just as human soul masters' martial souls are of varying quality, the same applies to soul beasts.

With so many human-faced demon spiders gathered together, even an ordinary Soul Master would likely find it difficult to escape unscathed. Not to mention the mother spider lurking in the shadows, whose cultivation is at least four thousand years old.

"The mother spider hasn't shown herself yet. Keep an eye on Ning Tian, ​​her web binding skill is a bit troublesome, as she's a nearly 5,000-year-old human-faced demon spider."

Beibei shook her head, then called out.

"Tianhuang".

Having known each other for so long and fought side-by-side in that Continental Advanced Soul Master Academy Tournament, Xu Zihuang naturally understood Bei Bei's meaning. In fact, he had been releasing his spiritual power to sense his surroundings since earlier. Unfortunately, the mother spider hadn't been exposed to his spiritual perception range.

The violent lightning-attribute soul power erupting from Beibei completely dispelled the morning mist that filled the air. The blue-purple snake lightning on her dragon arms constantly gathered and dissipated, flashing as if it were about to pierce through the surrounding space.

Just as a burst of lightning flickered on his right arm, the swarm of human-faced spiders pushed off the ground with their long legs and leaped into the air, attacking the group from all directions.

The Spider Web Binding Soul Skill can only be truly mastered by the Human-Faced Demon Spider when its cultivation level exceeds one hundred years. However, even without the Spider Web Binding Soul Skill, the Human-Faced Demon Spider's carapace, which is as hard as refined iron, and its spider legs, which are highly venomous and extremely sharp, are enough to make many Soul Masters and Soul Beasts wary.

Unfortunately, Beibei is not included in this list.

Faced with the onslaught of the human-faced spider demons, he made a strange gesture. He placed his palms together at his chest, as if pressing down on them.

In an instant, countless dense bolts of lightning appeared in his palms, like a miniature forest of lightning.

Of his five spirit rings, the second one, a yellow, hundred-year spirit ring, is lit up.

This was Bei Bei's second soul skill, Thunderous Might. Thunderous Might was originally supposed to be a wide-range attack soul skill that dispersed outside the body, releasing a lightning net to attack the opponent. However, he relied on his amazing control over the soul skill to turn Sumeru into a mustard seed, melting it into the palm of his hand.

Ning Tian's eyebrows twitched slightly. Among the Shrek Seven Devils of their generation, if Yu Tianhuang was in a league of his own, then Bei Bei and Xu Sanshi would be in the next tier.

Compared to the previous All-Continent Advanced Soul Master Academy Battle Tournament, everyone has made great progress.

Tang Ya was even more surprised than Ning Tian. Since Bei Bei broke through to the fourth-ring Soul Master level, a huge gap had formed between their strengths. When she sparred with Bei Bei, he never displayed these abilities. This meant she didn't have a full understanding of Bei Bei's true strength.

Otherwise, she wouldn't have offered to help Beibei.

Of the three, only Xu Zihuang's expression remained unchanged, calmly using his spiritual power to survey the mother spider's tracks. Possessing an ultimate lightning-attribute martial soul, his control over lightning-attribute soul skills was innate. What Bei Bei had displayed was not enough to cause any fluctuation in his composure.

A dazzling blue-purple lightning flashed across Xu Zihuang's bright golden eyes.

Beibei erupted.

He suddenly clapped his hands together, and the forest of lightning within his palms instantly transformed into hundreds of lightning bolts that shot out in all directions, striking each and every one of the human-faced demon spiders with pinpoint accuracy.

"Pfft, pfft, pfft—" Amidst the thick smell of burning, the charging momentum of the human-faced demon spiders came to an abrupt halt. Their lifeless corpses fell from mid-air to the ground, shattering into charred fragments. Countless faint white spirit rings filled the surrounding space.

Just then, a shrill shriek rang out from afar. Immediately afterwards, a yellowish-green spider web, nearly twenty meters in diameter, enveloped the group like a dark cloud. Wherever the web passed, any plant that touched it withered at a speed visible to the naked eye.

"Senior Brother Bei, two o'clock, five hundred meters away," Xu Zihuang reminded him in a deep voice. His eyes flashed with golden light as he fixed his gaze on the strange giant spider, whose main body was over two meters in diameter and whose each of its spear-like legs was over five meters long.

It was the mother spider in this swarm of human-faced demon spiders.

A strange, dark red ripple swept by, and a crystal barrier condensed at just the right moment, blocking the yellowish-green spiderweb.

With Xu Zihuang's guidance, Beibei quickly locked onto her target.

A deep rumble exploded from his body, the blue-purple lightning surrounding him intensified, and his aura surged once more.

His purple third spirit ring shone with dazzling brilliance.
