Chapter 73: Rarer than 100,000-year Soul Bone
🕑 Added 2025-03-09 10:18:44 +0000 UTC“Buzz!!!”
The Nine Treasures Glazed Tower held in Ye Cheng’s hand made a slight humming sound.
At the same time, a colorful ripple spread out from the tower, spreading in all directions…
Ning Rongrong and Zhu Zhuqing just watched quietly without making any noise to disturb them.
After a while.
Ye Cheng suddenly put away the Nine Treasures Glazed Tower, then waved his sleeves. Ning Rongrong and Zhu Zhuqing felt a vast force surrounding their bodies, causing their bodies to automatically float up.
There is no doubt that this was definitely Ye Cheng’s work. The two people who were a little flustered calmed down.
Ye Cheng did not explain too much. After wrapping the two people with his soul power, he took off into the air and flew directly into the air without the help of any equipment. He carried the two women with him and flew away.
After a while, he brought the two women to a pond. There were many animals drinking water here, but they were startled by the three people who suddenly fell from the sky and fled in all directions.
Ye Cheng ignored these soul beasts that were at most ten or a hundred years old. Instead, he looked around and even summoned the Nine Treasures Glazed Tower again to activate his treasure hunting ability.
Soon, it seemed to sense something.
He stared at the pool and flicked his finger. A stream of sword energy shot into the pool, and with a loud bang, a large amount of water rushed up into the sky.
Ye Cheng, who had sharp eyes, could see a glimmer of light under the pond several meters deep. He immediately smiled and stretched out his hand to grab it. The shining object broke free from the mud, flew up quickly, and finally landed in his palm.
“Found something good.”
Ye Cheng’s voice made Ning Rongrong and Zhu Zhuqing subconsciously move forward. When they saw what he was holding, they couldn’t help but exclaimed: “Soul bone?!”
That’s right, what appeared in Ye Cheng’s palm at this moment was a soul bone. And it was an extremely rare torso soul bone!
However, although it is a soul bone, the age of this soul bone is slightly… a little lower!
“This is the first time I’ve seen a soul bone that’s less than a hundred years old. Should this thing be called a ten-year soul bone?” Ye Cheng looked at the soul bone in his hand and shook his head, obviously looking down on this thing.
“Ten-year soul bone?”
Ning Rongrong and Zhu Zhuqing looked at each other, and they could see each other’s surprise. It was the first time for them to see a soul bone with such a young age.
You have to know that soul bones are generally more likely to be produced by older soul beasts. On the contrary, the younger the soul beast, the lower the probability of producing soul bones.
If the probability of a ten thousand year soul beast producing soul bones is one in a thousand, then the probability of a thousand year soul beast producing soul bones is one in five thousand, and the probability of a hundred year soul beast producing soul bones drops to one in ten thousand.
As for a ten-year soul beast that is less than a hundred years old…can this thing actually produce soul bones?
Well, it turns out that it can. Isn’t there one right before your eyes?
Ye Cheng looked at the pitifully low power soul bone in his hand, knowing that this thing was probably even rarer than a hundred thousand year soul bone. After all, millions of soul beasts might not be able to produce one.
Ten-year soul bone… How low is the probability to produce one? Especially this thing is the most precious torso soul bone among the six soul bones, it's outrageous!
As for why this soul bone is in the pool, it is easy to understand. Soul beasts will fight with each other. Therefore, if a soul beast killed by its own kind produces soul bones, it will have no effect on the soul beasts of the same kind. It will most likely be discarded as garbage.
Of course, this refers to the soul beasts of young age whose intelligence is no different from that of wild beasts. Those soul beasts of advanced age whose intelligence is not inferior to that of humans, knowing the value of this thing, will definitely collect the soul bones. Even if the soul beast cannot fuse the soul bones, it is possible that this thing will be useful in the future if it is collected. They will never casually discard it to make a living for humans.
“Let me see, what kind of soul beast produced this soul bone?” Ye Cheng held the Nine Treasures Glazed Pagoda in his left hand, and then directly activated the treasure appraisal ability on the soul bone in his right hand!
In an instant, the information about the soul bone in his hand appeared in his mind.
[Pig beast torso soul bone.]
Years: Sixty-six years
Skill: Foul-smelling spray! – Sprays a strong, irritating poisonous mist from the anus.
Evaluation: In some ways, this is a soul bone that is even rarer than a 100,000-year soul bone. 】
After receiving the above information, Ye Cheng fell silent.
Soul bone skills are actually bullshit?
Is this skill meant to be funny?
Are you sure this thing isn’t specially designed for Yu Xiaogang, the master who can only fart?
No! He was already very good at farting, and this soul bone was just icing on the cake, with little impact.
But if this soul bone is fused with someone from the Tang Sect…
As if thinking of something, Ye Cheng suddenly smiled and calculated the time. If there really is such a thing as the protagonist’s luck and world correction power in this world, then in a short time, I’m afraid Tang San will get an extremely rare external soul bone, right?
But it’s hard to say. After all, Tang San has awakened the Blue Silver Emperor bloodline in advance, and his level has already reached Soul Master. He doesn’t need to obtain soul rings now. Therefore, even if he encounters the soul beast that provides external soul bones in the original book, he will most likely not kill it to take the ring. In this way, it is impossible to obtain external soul bones, right?
After all, external soul bones seem to need to be absorbed together with soul rings to obtain… Wait!
Ye Cheng was suddenly stunned. He found that the memories he obtained were actually inconsistent with the original book.
Because in the memory he inherited from his character setting, things like external soul bones do not require the soul ring of the soul beast that produces the soul bone to be absorbed. Instead, it is just like ordinary soul bones, which can be absorbed as soon as they are obtained.
The only difference from ordinary soul bones is that after the external soul bones are taken into the soul master’s body, they will not be absorbed immediately. Instead, they will go through a period of fusion. At this stage, they can still be taken away. But when they are completely fused with the soul master’s body, then this external soul bone can no longer be taken away by others.
Even if you kill the person who has the external soul bone, you cannot obtain the external soul bone because it is a disposable item and cannot be used a second time.
It's not like ordinary soul bones, where you kill the host and then the soul bones will explode. It’s very safe.
So to sum up.
Tang San still has a chance to obtain that precious external soul bone.
In this case, Ye Cheng couldn’t just sit there and watch. After all, he was right in the forest, and an external soul bone was right in front of him. It would be a waste if he didn’t take it. Even if it was destroyed in the end, it couldn’t help the enemy!
…
The other side.
After Shrek and his companions lost the Phoenix-tailed Crest Serpent Spirit Ring that they were supposed to get, they had no choice but to continue looking for a suitable spirit beast in the Star Dou Great Forest. Fortunately, they were lucky and after three days, they finally encountered another suitable spirit beast.
It was an agile monkey named Wind Baboon. If Oscar obtained the spirit ring of this monkey, the effect he would gain would most likely be speed.
So everyone decided to go with this Wind Baboon.
