The roar of the Dark Gold Terror Claw Bear was no longer as loud. Although it appeared unharmed, its internal organs had actually suffered a great shock.
It was already considering retreating. Although this group of people couldn't break its defense, it couldn't harm them either.
Zhao Wuji's fourth soul ring lit up, and the gravity compression restricted the Dark Gold Terror Claw Bear's speed.
Lu Qibin's sixth soul ring lit up again, and the Starry Chess Formation was set up to control the Dark Gold Terror Claw Bear, which wanted to escape.
The dragon and snake couple finally merged, and their two canes intertwined in the air.
"Dragon and Snake Canes!"
The dragon and snake merged, becoming even larger, and the two canes radiated light.
"Bang!"
It simply and directly crashed into the Dark Gold Terror Claw Bear, and the bear, which was more than three meters tall, was sent flying. Giant trees in its path were knocked down one after another, and it rolled several times before stopping.
"Is it dead?"
Dai Mubai said with some worry as he looked at the Dark Gold Terror Claw Bear that had been sent flying.
The Dragon Lord and Snake Lady's Martial Soul Fusion Technique was too powerful. The Dark Gold Terrorclaw Bear was already injured, and he was worried that it would be killed by this attack, which would be a tragedy for Ma Hongjun.
Fortunately, when everyone got closer, they found that the Dark Gold Terrorclaw Bear was still alive and was actually struggling to get up.
Even at this time, there were still no wounds on the Dark Gold Terrorclaw Bear's body.
"What a monstrous soul beast!"
Everyone couldn't help but sigh, but there was no need to worry anymore. The Dark Gold Terrorclaw Bear was now at its last gasp, and its internal organs were probably shattered, and its life was slipping away.
"Hongjun, make your move!" Lu Qibin said.
At this time, Flander and Zhao Wuji were already lying on the ground, injured, eating Shao Xin's candy beans and Oscar's sausages.
Ma Hongjun didn't hesitate and summoned the Dragon Soul Spear, aiming it at the Dark Gold Terrorclaw Bear's head where Flander had grabbed it.
"Clang!"
The first shot didn't penetrate, but after a series of shots, on the seventh shot, the Dragon Soul Spear pierced into the Dark Gold Terrorclaw Bear's skull.
Ma Hongjun didn't rush to absorb the spirit ring. Instead, he walked up to the Dragon Duke and Snake Granny and bowed respectfully.
"Thank you both for your help, seniors. I will remember this favor!"
The Dragon Duke nodded appreciatively. Although it came at a price, befriending this group of little monsters was a good thing.
In the future, these children would definitely have a place in the spirit master world. Befriending them now might help their Dragon-Snake Clan in the future.
"Go absorb the spirit ring quickly. It's not safe to stay here any longer."
The black spirit ring had a hint of dark gold. Ma Hongjun sat cross-legged and guided the Dark Gold Terrorclaw Bear's spirit ring into his body.
Watching Ma Hongjun absorb the spirit ring, the others couldn't help but feel envious. Putting aside the issue of a ten-thousand-year spirit ring, the fact that it came from a Dark Gold Terrorclaw Bear was enough to make them envious.
Although the quality of a spirit ring is most related to its age, the type of spirit beast is also extremely important. A spirit ring from a powerful spirit beast will naturally have powerful spirit skills.
However, absorbing it is also difficult.
As expected of a ferocious beast, its spirit ring possessed incredibly fierce power. Upon entering Ma Hongjun's body, it clashed with his golden spirit power.
These powers were of the same attribute, like two kings meeting, inevitably resulting in a victor.
The golden and dark golden spirit powers battled within Ma Hongjun's body, raging like a storm.
Ma Hongjun began to resemble Tang San absorbing the Human-Faced Demon Spider; the powerful, masculine spirit power mobilized his entire body's blood and qi, and soon, blood energy began to emerge.
Ma Hongjun's transformation caused concern among those around him.
However, things gradually calmed down, and ultimately, Ma Hongjun's golden spirit power gained the upper hand, the dark golden spirit power slowly merging into his body.
Ma Hongjun could clearly feel the changes in his spirit power; the Dark Gold Terrorclaw Bear's spirit ring, with its metal-based power, had an enhancing effect, similar to Ma Hongjun's Dragon Soul Spear.
As the spirit ring merged, dark golden stripes appeared on the Dragon Soul Spear.
"Success!"
Yellow, purple, purple, black!
Ma Hongjun opened his eyes. At this moment,
he became the youngest Soul Master at Shrek Academy.
Ma Hongjun's entire body was brimming with power. The Dragon Soul Spear, now adorned with dark gold stripes, shone brightly, surrounded by golden light, exuding a kingly dominance. Its power was undeniable.
"So sharp!"
Oscar, observing Ma Hongjun's Dragon Soul Spear, suddenly stepped back, feeling a sharp, piercing sensation as he approached.
Ma Hongjun sheathed the Dragon Soul Spear. Then he looked at the Dark Gold Terrorclaw Bear beside him. This guy was a treasure trove!
"Huh, what's this? It's glowing!"
Ning Rongrong, already examining the Dark Gold Terrorclaw Bear, exclaimed in surprise when she saw golden light shimmering in its right paw.
Shao Xin walked over, his face immediately showing delight.
"Could our luck be this good?!"
As Shao Xin spoke, he squatted down and picked up the Dark Gold Terrorclaw Bear's right paw.
The others also gathered around. Zhao Wuji took out a sharp blade and severed the Dark Gold Terrorclaw Bear's right forelimb.
In a few swift movements, he dissected it, revealing a strange bone.
This bone was dark gold in color and emitted a dense fluctuation of soul power.
"A soul bone?"
the Dragon Duke and Snake Granny exclaimed in surprise, somewhat uncertain.
This soul bone was different from the traditional right arm soul bones they had seen. To be precise, it was a palm bone, similar in shape to the bones of a hand, but with five narrow, sharp blades at the front end, like a miniature version of a terrorclaw. The dark gold halo flowed across the blades like ripples of water, giving it the feel of a divine weapon.
Undoubtedly, this was a soul bone, but not the common six soul bones. Considering Tang San's previous eight spider legs, everyone easily thought of an external soul bone.
If nothing unexpected happened, fusing with this palm bone might grant skills like the Dark Gold Terrorclaw Bear's claws.
Thinking back to the terrifying power of the Dark Gold Terrorclaw Bear's claws, and then looking at the soul bone before them,
the air suddenly fell silent, the atmosphere somewhat chilly. After the initial excitement, the next challenge was distribution.
There was only one soul bone, but the team had two.
Flander, supporting his weak body, stood up with Tang San's help. Five claw marks remained on his back; even with Shao Xin's healing candy, they wouldn't heal quickly.
"Hongjun, give this soul bone to Meng Yiran!"
Flander said with some difficulty. Normally, Ma Hongjun, having absorbed the Dark Gold Terrorclaw Bear's soul ring and then fused it with his soul bone, would be like a tiger with wings. If it weren't for Long Gong and the others, this soul bone would definitely belong to him.
"Okay, teacher!"
To say he wasn't sad would be a lie. Such a powerful external soul bone was irresistible to Ma Hongjun, but he knew that if Long Gong and the Snake Granny hadn't intervened, the Dark Gold Terrorclaw Bear wouldn't have been killed. At that time, not only would the soul bone be gone, but the soul ring would also have been lost.
Moreover, the Dragon Lord had suffered severe injuries as a result, and Ma Hongjun had just mentioned owing him a favor.
In truth, it was only right and proper to give the soul bone to the Dragon Lord's side at this point. Furthermore,
Flander and Zhao Wuji were both injured; if they offended the Dragon Lord because of this soul bone, they would be in trouble.
Ma Hongjun took the soul bone from Zhao Wuji and handed it to Meng Yiran.
"Miss Meng, here you go."
