Chapter 158: Another Soul Bone! Medusa's Skull Spirit Bone
[Dugu Bo's gratitude fell into the eyes of Yu Yuanzhen and the Grand Elder, leaving them both immensely satisfied.]
[As high-ranking members of a major power, they favored people who understood how to be grateful above all else.]
[After another round of cordial exchange, Yu Yuanzhen spoke up when the conversation turned to Dugu Bo's Martial Soul.]
["Since Elder Dugu's Martial Soul has already evolved, why not give it a new name?"]
[Upon hearing Yu Yuanzhen's suggestion, Dugu Bo was instantly moved.]
[A Martial Soul evolution, and one that started with himself, was a matter of great honor.]
[In the future, whenever poison-attribute serpent Martial Souls on the Douluo Continent were mentioned, he would be an unavoidable focal point.]
[Therefore, giving it a name was indeed very necessary.]
["Since it evolved from the Jade Phosphor Serpent, let's call it the Jade Phosphor Serpent Emperor."]
[After pondering for a moment, Dugu Bo decided to give himself a new name that was both resonant and simple.]
[Upon hearing this name, people would know his Martial Soul was powerful and would also be reminded of the Dugu Family; that was enough.]
["Jade Phosphor Serpent Emperor? Not bad, simple and clear yet full of overbearing aura."]
[Yu Yuanzhen nodded.]
[After another round of mutual flattery, Dugu Bo glanced at the nearby Medusa corpse, preparing to search the body as per custom.]
[He didn't actually expect this Medusa to drop a Soul Bone.]
[He had already obtained the Soul Ring of a top-tier serpent Soul Beast like Medusa, and it had even triggered his Martial Soul's evolution, giving him the possibility of becoming a Titled Douluo.]
[Having gained so many benefits already, obtaining a Soul Bone on top of that would be a bit too much.]
["Elder Dugu, wait a moment."]
[Seeing Dugu Bo preparing to process the Medusa's corpse, Yu Yuanzhen spoke up to stop him.]
["What are the Sect Master's orders?"]
[Dugu Bo looked at Yu Yuanzhen and asked with some confusion.]
["Hahaha, it's like this. My son feels that his luck is very good, so he wants to inspect the Medusa's corpse on Elder Dugu's behalf. Perhaps his luck will allow him to pull out a Soul Bone."]
[Yu Yuanzhen pushed the reason directly onto Yu Xiaogang, earning a roll of the eyes from his son.]
["Oh? The Young Sect Master is truly... interesting."]
[Dugu Bo looked at Yu Xiaogang with a somewhat strange gaze.]
[Thinking his luck is good, so he wants to search the body in my place?]
[What kind of bizarre idea is this?]
[But it was just a Soul Beast's corpse; it didn't matter who searched it. Thus, Dugu Bo took a few steps back and gestured for Yu Xiaogang to step forward.]
[Looking at Dugu Bo's strange expression, Yu Xiaogang was speechless.]
[He felt like he was being labeled with some weird tags.]
[Under Yu Yuanzhen's encouraging gaze and the peculiar stares of Dugu Bo, the Grand Elder, and Lin Lang, Yu Xiaogang arrived before the Medusa's corpse and began searching for a Soul Bone.]
[First was the torso area; nothing.]
[Next, he casually sliced open the sides of the Medusa.]
[To be honest, while searching for limb Soul Bones on a Medusa, Yu Xiaogang's urge to complain was practically hitting the ceiling.]
[Why would a serpent Soul Beast, a creature without limbs, even produce limb Soul Bones?]
[What exactly was the deal with these Soul Bones?]
[The inspection of the limb areas was complete; likewise, no Soul Bone appeared.]
[Yu Xiaogang wasn't disappointed by this, and Dugu Bo, the Grand Elder, and Lin Lang were equally accustomed to it.]
[If Soul Bones were that easy to drop, there wouldn't be a large group of Titled Douluo without a single Soul Bone on their person.]
[The pile of Soul Bones Yu Xiaogang had found in the cavern was entirely an unexpected windfall.]
[Only Yu Yuanzhen felt deeply disappointed.]
[His son's repeated good fortune had made him truly believe that this luck would continue forever.]
[Now it seemed he had overthought it.]
[Thus, the disappointed Yu Yuanzhen, like Dugu Bo and the others, withdrew his gaze and stopped watching.]
[At the same time, Yu Xiaogang looked at the final area: the head.]
[Since no limb bones had dropped, the probability for the head was even lower.]
[Arriving at the Medusa's head, Yu Xiaogang casually raised his hand to process it as before.]
[At this moment, his mind had already begun thinking about how to research those ten-year Soul Bones in his possession once they returned to Heaven Dou City.]
[Compared to an illusory Soul Bone, he actually had a whole pile of Soul Bones in his hands waiting to be researched.]
[However, just then.]
[Clang!]
[The blade piercing into the Medusa's head was blocked. At first, Yu Xiaogang didn't care; after all, besides a Soul Bone, Medusa also had a normal skull bone.]
[But as he sliced open the wound, a faint green light shot directly into Yu Xiaogang's still-distracted eyes.]
[The many thoughts in his mind vanished the instant the light entered his eyes. Yu Xiaogang stiffly turned his head, looking in disbelief at the wound he had just opened.]
[A very real light was radiating from that wound.]
["Holy crap!!"]
[Unable to restrain himself, Yu Xiaogang let out a curse, his voice echoing all around.]
[Not far away, Yu Yuanzhen and the others, who had already looked away, immediately turned back upon hearing Yu Xiaogang's voice.]
[Then they saw the light bursting from the wound in the Medusa's head.]
["Ah?"]
["Heavens!!!"]
["A Skull Spirit Bone!!"]
[Exclamations filled the area. Yu Yuanzhen and the others rushed to Yu Xiaogang's side at their fastest speed, craning their necks to look toward the Soul Bone.]
["Xiaogang, quickly take the Soul Bone out!"]
["Hahaha, another Soul Bone appeared! And it's a Skull Spirit Bone, a sixty-thousand-year Skull Spirit Bone!"]
[Yu Yuanzhen laughed heartily in excitement.]
[It was confirmed. It was confirmed! His son was definitely a lucky star. If he weren't a lucky star, how could his luck be this good?]
[Beside him, the Grand Elder, Dugu Bo, and Lin Lang all looked excited.]
[Especially Dugu Bo.]
[Because he hadn't witnessed Yu Xiaogang obtaining the Radiant Elemental Dragon's Soul Bone, this was the first time in Dugu Bo's life witnessing a Soul Beast drop a Soul Bone.]
[Under the excited gazes of everyone, Yu Xiaogang took a deep breath and quickly extracted the Soul Bone.]
[A dark green light shone, tugging at the hearts of everyone present.]
[A Skull Spirit Bone, and a sixty-thousand-year one at that.]
[Just how valuable would this be?]
[A moment later, after the initial joy passed and everyone calmed down, the next thing they had to consider was who exactly should absorb this Soul Bone.]
[And at the thought of this question, the Grand Elder's heart suddenly wasn't so happy anymore; it even became somewhat painful.]
[He looked at Yu Yuanzhen's head, where a Soul Bone had already been absorbed.]
["If I had known, I shouldn't have let the Sect Master be so hasty in absorbing that thirty-thousand-year Skull Spirit Bone."]
["If he hadn't absorbed that one, the Sect Master could be absorbing this sixty-thousand-year one right now."]
[The Grand Elder felt incredibly depressed.]
[Seeing that no one was taking the initiative to speak, Dugu Bo glanced at the Soul Bone with some longing, then finally gritted his teeth.]
["Sect Master, why don't you be the one to absorb this Soul Bone?"]
