—------------------—
Shi Quan received two Spirit Bones from Dugu Bo.
After a 100,000-year Spirit Beast dies, the Spirit Bones it produces are inevitably ones that the hunter does not already possess.
Shi Quan currently only lacked three Spirit Bones: a skull, an arm bone, and a leg bone, so he was not surprised by these two Spirit Bones.
His consciousness, however, entered the System space.
He had heard of the name Ancient Yin Yang Chaos Bird.
But Shi Quan had never heard of the Ancient Yin Yang Chaos Phoenix.
Ancient Yin Yang Chaos Phoenix: A special Spirit Beast formed by absorbing the primordial Chaos Yin and Yang Qi when a plane first came into existence; there will only ever be one in the entire plane.
Note: After extraction, the power of the Ancient Yin Yang Chaos Phoenix will transform into the host's power, and the host will inherit a portion of the Douluo Continent's Origin power and Luck power.
"The entire plane?" Shi Quan pondered to himself.
The Yin Yang Chaos Bird was formed by residual Chaos Yin and Yang Qi, and there would only be one on a single planet.
However, the description for this Yin Yang Chaos Phoenix stated that there was only one per plane.
Douluo Continent?
Shi Quan looked up at the bright moon and stars in the sky.
Were the sun, moon, and stars also part of the Douluo Continent?
From the System's note, this Yin Yang Chaos Phoenix should transform into his power through some form of sacrifice.
If so, then he wouldn't need to hunt Spirit Beasts for his seventh spirit ring for now.
He also didn't know what the mentioned partial Origin and Luck power in the note meant.
After a moment of thought, Shi Quan decided to return and find a safe place to extract it.
The Origin and Luck power of an entire plane sounded anything but simple.
He could ask Di Tian to be his Protector, but Di Tian, having obtained the dragon god's heart, had probably gone to find the Silver Dragon King immediately.
It wouldn't be good to call him back right after he left.
"Grandpa Dugu, I have a special method to obtain my seventh spirit ring.
Let's head back first."
Shi Quan stood up.
"Alright." Dugu Bo nodded, "Then let's set off back."
On the way back, Tian Meng actively said, "Boss, Lingling now has twin spirits, and her second Martial Spirit is water-attributed.
Water-attributed Spirit Beasts are most numerous in the Extreme North Land.
If you want to add a spirit ring to her second Martial Spirit, you can take her to the Extreme North Land.
I'm most familiar with that place, and if there's a chance, maybe I can even help her obtain a spirit ring without hunting a Spirit Beast."
"You want to trick the Ice Emperor?" Shi Quan raised his hand and poked Tian Meng's chubby body.
Tian Meng retracted his head, "Hehe, Boss, you know?"
"I know some of your past deeds, you innocent little Ice Silkworm." Shi Quan chuckled.
"Shi Quan, who is this Ice Emperor you're talking about?" Ye Lingling asked curiously.
"The Ice Emperor is one of the three Heavenly Kings of the Extreme North Land, ranking second among them.
She is a 390,000-year Ice Jade Emperor Scorpion, and her strength is incredibly powerful."
"A 390,000-year Ice Jade Emperor Scorpion?" Ye Lingling was startled, "Only second at 390,000 years, then how strong must the first-ranked one be?"
"The first-ranked one is named Snow Empress, a 690,000-year Ice Sky Snow Girl, a being condensed from the purest ice-attributed Heaven and Earth elemental energy in the core region of the Extreme North Land, a darling of ice and snow."
"Such terrifying existences are hidden in the Extreme North Land?"
"Never underestimate the power of Spirit Beasts.
There's an even more powerful existence in the deep sea, named Deep Sea Demon Whale King.
His strength has already approached a million years."
Everyone couldn't help but gasp.
"Doesn't that mean the Deep Sea Demon Whale King's strength is even greater than Di Tian's?"
"Age doesn't represent strength.
Just like Tian Meng, his age has also reached a million years, but in terms of strength, he's not even as good as a 100,000-year Spirit Beast."
Tian Meng could only respond awkwardly upon hearing this.
"Although Di Tian's age is only 800,000 years, his strength is absolutely the strongest existence among the Spirit Beast race, because Di Tian possesses a pure Dragon Clan Bloodline.
Even that Deep Sea Demon Whale King is pursuing the Dao of transforming into a Dragon, otherwise, how do you think he got the title of King of Spirit Beasts?"
Dugu Yan chuckled and said, "Di Tian is so strong, with him as a backer, won't we be able to walk sideways on the Douluo Continent?"
"Relying on others is not as good as relying on oneself." Shi Quan shook his head and looked at Dugu Yan seriously, saying, "On the cultivation Dao, you must never develop a mentality of relying on others."
Dugu Yan stuck out her tongue, playfully saying, "I know!"
"Oh, by the way, Shi Quan, there should be a lot of good things in Tang Hao's corpse, right?" Dugu Bo suddenly said.
"Mm." Shi Quan nodded, "Wait a moment."
Shi Quan reached into his hundred treasure pouch for a while, then said with a smile, "This Tang Hao really gave me a big gift."
As he spoke, he waved his hand, and a row of Spirit Bones immediately appeared in front of him.
The glowing light, mixed with surging spirit power fluctuations or mental force fluctuations, made everyone's advancing figures pause involuntarily.
"That Tang Hao fellow actually has six Spirit Bones?!" Dugu Bo was also startled.
A skull, a torso bone, two arm bones, and two leg bones.
From the age and aura fluctuations, the torso bone had the highest age, already close to 80,000 years.
The aura of this Spirit Bone was somewhat similar to when Tang Hao detonated his eighth spirit ring, so it should have been obtained when he acquired his eighth spirit ring.
Slightly lesser were the 70,000-year Right Arm Bone and Left Leg Bone.
These two Spirit Bones were the Clear Sky Sect's Sect Legacy Spirit Bones.
There were also two 50,000-year level Spirit Bones: one was a Right Leg Bone, and the other was a rare Mind Condensing Wisdom Skull.
Although its spirit power fluctuations were around 50,000 years, its mental force fluctuations were already close to 60,000 years, and in terms of quality, it was even stronger than the one from the Grand Competition.
The last one was a dark Left Arm Bone, with an age of roughly 20,000 years based on spirit power fluctuations, but its violent intensity was in no way weaker than that strongest 80,000-year torso bone.
Shi Quan was more familiar with the aura on this Spirit Bone, because he had a Spirit Bone with the same aura as this one: the 100,000-year Titan Giant Ape Spirit Bone!
It seemed to be the Titan Giant Ape Spirit Bone that Tang Hao defeated in the original work.
Although it was only a 20,000-year Spirit Bone, purely in terms of power amplification, this 20,000-year Titan Giant Ape Left Arm Bone should be no worse than Tang Hao's 70,000-year Sect Legacy Right Arm Bone.
If you count them up.
Shi Quan now possessed more than ten Spirit Bones.
Tang Hao brought six, killing the Titan Giant Ape and Sky Azure Bull Python each yielded two, assassinating Shi Nian yielded one, and of the three Spirit Bones from the Grand Competition, only the Mind Condensing Wisdom Skull was absorbed by Ye Lingling, with the other two Spirit Bones also with Shi Quan.
In other words, Shi Quan currently held a total of eleven Spirit Bones.
The lowest-aged one was a 20,000-year Titan Giant Ape Left Arm Bone.
Two mental-type Spirit Bones: Shi Nian's Hallucination Wisdom Left Arm Bone, and Tang Hao's skull.
Power-type Spirit Bones: 100,000-year Titan Giant Ape Left Arm Bone and 20,000-year Left Arm Bone, Tang Hao's Sect Legacy Right Arm Bone, Sect Legacy Left Leg Bone, and torso bone.
Speed-type Spirit Bones: Tang Hao's Right Leg Bone, and the Rapid Advancement Wind-Chasing Left Leg Bone obtained from the Grand Competition.
Fire-attribute Spirit Bone: Burst Incineration Flame Right Arm Bone.
Control-type Spirit Bone: Sky Azure Bull Python Left Leg Bone.
Nearly half of the eleven Spirit Bones were power-type Spirit Bones.
"Grandpa Dugu, this torso bone is quite suitable for you, but I'll give it to you after a while."
Dugu Bo was a control system Titled Douluo, so power-type Spirit Bones had limited improvement for him, but a torso bone was different; a torso bone provided comprehensive improvement.
"Alright." Dugu Bo nodded in agreement, without asking for the reason.
The reason for not giving it to Dugu Bo now was simple: Shi Quan planned to strengthen this torso bone before giving it to Dugu Bo.
Through continuous strengthening, Shi Quan also discovered some limitations of the Spirit Bone strengthening device.
For example, 10,000-year level Spirit Bones could only be strengthened to a maximum of 99,999 years and could not be strengthened further.
The three Spirit Bones that Shi Quan had obtained very early on—Time's Hallucination Wisdom Left Arm Bone, the Burst Incineration Flame Right Arm Bone, and the Rapid Advancement Wind-Chasing Left Leg Bone from the Grand Competition—had all been strengthened by Shi Quan to 99,999 years, reaching the point where they could no longer be strengthened.
To further improve these three Spirit Bones, Shi Quan's research showed two current methods.
Firstly, using some precious Heaven And Earth Treasure.
Currently, ordinary Immortal Herbs could not achieve this.
Secondly, breaking through this limitation through Spirit Bone Fusion.
However, this would likely require both Spirit Bones to be strengthened to 99,999 years simultaneously.
In Shi Quan's understanding, a 10,000-year Spirit Bone had one Spirit Ability, and a 100,000-year Spirit Bone had two Spirit abilities.
Two max-level 10,000-year Spirit Bones, after Fusion, would become a stronger 100,000-year Spirit Bone, and the single Spirit abilities of the two Spirit Bones would then combine into two.
The six Spirit Bones brought by Tang Hao happened to help Shi Quan break through the 100,000-year limit for mental-type and speed-type Spirit Bones.
As for power-type, there were more than enough.
The speed-type Spirit Bone was naturally for Zhu Zhuqing, and Shi Quan also planned to give Zhu Zhuqing a power-type Spirit Bone.
Shi Quan planned to consider the mental-type Spirit Bone later.
As for how to arrange them later, that would have to wait until they returned.
It must be said that Di Tian's spatial teleportation ability was indeed powerful.
Everyone traveled at high speed for a full day and night before finally leaving the Star Dou Great Forest.
After a simple rest in the town, and retrieving the stored carriage from the hotel early in the morning, everyone embarked on their return journey.
In a mysterious space deep within the Star Dou Great Forest.
Di Tian respectfully bowed to the figure in front of him, "My Lord!"
In front of him was a silver Giant Dragon, a thousand meters tall, whose magnificent scales were covered with countless cracks, exuding a desolate beauty.
It was the Silver Dragon King, Gu Yuena.
Facing Di Tian's bow, Gu Yuena remained prostrate, without any movement.
Seeing this, Di Tian couldn't help but sigh slightly.
Shi Quan's appearance had caused Gu Yuena to awaken early, but due to the severe injuries within Gu Yuena's body, the newly awakened Gu Yuena had fallen back into slumber, not even reacting to his entry….
