Chapter 264: Torso Bone: Slaughter the Three Thousand Realms!
All energies harmonized.
Taking the opportunity, the torso bone quickly fused with Dugu Feng's upper body skeleton.
His entire body surged with intense energy waves, layers of red halos roaring outward.
Muscles, blood vessels, and meridians were visible in the red light; every cell absorbed the energy.
Dugu Feng instantly realized the torso bone's quality surpassed even the Blue Silver Emperor's right leg bone and the Azure Wood Jade Dragon's right arm bone.
The Unicorneel had just evolved into a hundred-thousand-year soul beast when he hunted it—how could its soul bone be so exquisite?
Dugu Feng suspected it was because of the horn.
He clearly saw that the unicorn horn had transformed into energy and merged into the torso bone.
Could this horn have become an external soul bone?
Dugu Feng was thrilled—could he be that lucky?
Another external soul bone gained!
As the energy merged, Dugu Feng sensed no signs of new external soul bones appearing.
However, he noticed something different.
Right at his chest, the center of the ruby armor, a deep vortex appeared.
The vortex seemed to gather energy.
This energy was from the torso bone; it pushed aside the ruby armor of the Eight Spider Spears and drilled out from Dugu Feng's chest.
"A horn!"
This was the lost unicorn horn, transformed into soul bone energy and connected to the chest skeleton.
Though it seemed like an external soul bone, it was actually part of the torso bone.
But it was distinct from a normal torso bone.
The horn was short, with the buried part as long as a palm, resembling a heart protector on the ruby armor's center.
Its tip appeared sharp and golden, differing from the ruby armor's color.
"This horn is for unleashing the torso bone's soul skill!"
After fully absorbing the torso bone's energy, Dugu Feng understood the horn's function.
He guessed this torso bone was the one Bibi Dong had in the original story.
Whether Bibi Dong had acquired this horn, he did not know.
The soul skill's name was: Slaughter the Three Thousand Realms.
A domineering name!
Dugu Feng no longer hesitated. The Unicorneel's torso bone far exceeded expectations.
Slaughter the Three Thousand Realms condensed all the torso bone's energy, firing a nearly one-foot-wide red beam from his chest, annihilating all enemies.
This hundred-thousand-year soul beast's torso bone had only this skill, maximizing its attack.
"Such a grotesque soul skill!"
Dugu Feng murmured. No one could resist such a powerful attack skill.
The red beam suddenly condensed; the Eight Spider Spears, ruby armor, and the horn all returned inside him.
Dugu Feng stood.
He admired the six soul rings once more before releasing martial soul possession.
This hundred-thousand-year soul ring's skill was Eternal Creation—Bibi Dong's original sixth soul skill.
It released a huge green light wave, ignoring physical defense and halving energy defense.
While resisting the Unicorneel's soul shock, he had experienced this skill—a perfect defense breaker.
His soul power already contained potent toxins, making the attack even more destructive. He dared not imagine its true strength.
Not yet finished—the great power of the hundred-thousand-year soul ring lay in its two skills.
The second skill was a divine defensive ability: Immortal Worm.
It used the soul ring's life energy to counter deadly blows.
As long as the attack didn't destroy Dugu Feng's body and soul at once—even if his heart was pierced—the skill could negate the damage.
"This is literally a second life!"
Dugu Feng sighed.
He realized he commanded abundant life energy.
Blue Silver Emperor's right leg bone, Azure Wood Jade Dragon's right arm bone, Slaughter the Three Thousand Realms torso bone, and even the sixth soul ring itself all held life attributes.
Poison represented death, the polar opposite of life.
But what if poison reached its utmost?
Dugu Feng had a premonition: absorbing these life-attributed soul bones and soul rings would greatly assist his path toward ultimate poison mastery.
Oh, and his soul power level!
After experiencing soul bone and ring skills, he finally realized his soul power level.
Sixty-five!
A full five-level increase!
Only a hundred-thousand-year soul beast could do this.
Dugu Feng decided from now on to maximize soul ring ages.
Wouldn't cultivation speed then increase dramatically?
Tang San's ascent from level sixty to godhood seemed like cheating, relying on soul ring absorption and divine trials.
He must make the most of this advantage, but unlike Tang San, he wouldn't cultivate a mishmash of skills.
Tang San wielded hidden weapons, toxins, Sea God's trident, Blue Silver Grass, and Haotian Hammer in turn.
Ultimately, despite seeming skillful, he couldn't even defeat Bibi Dong, proving weak.
Bibi Dong's two martial souls, Deathless Spider Queen and Soul-Eating Spider Queen, had similar essences.
She took the path of extremity.
Dugu Feng thought this was why Bibi Dong was stronger than Tang San.
He resolved to follow the path of ultimate poison mastery.
This sixth soul ring Unicorneel had life and poison attributes.
In the near future, his Tyrant Poison would advance rapidly with new toxins added, creating countless variations.
All requiring Dugu Feng's gradual comprehension.
"Master, let us check on those two hundred-thousand-year soul beasts!" Suddenly, the Emerald Dragon Snake's voice echoed in Dugu Feng's ear.
Dugu Feng laughed, "You just want to tease them!"
The two Emerald Dragon Snakes entwined affectionately around his wrist.
They had long wanted to show off in Star Dou Great Forest.
The beasts in Sunset Forest were no challenge.
They had teased each one; none could find them.
Now at over fifty thousand years in age, careful and hidden outside City of Slaughter, even Bibi Dong and Tang Hao could not detect them.
Yet, the two snakes felt no pride.
It was normal humans couldn't detect them; after all, humans had no innate soul skills.
Only when high-aged soul beasts couldn't detect them did they feel proud—meaning superiority over their kind.
Not showing off to those high-aged beasts was like returning home in rags with no honor.
"Go, check if Xiao Wu is here, and familiarize yourselves with other soul beasts in Star Dou Great Forest!"
Dugu Feng ordered.
They would hunt soul beasts here in the future, so preparation was key.
