Douluo: Wuhun Longyuan Sword, I have become the scabbard

Chapter 165 Soul Bone Armor
“My soul has truly been preserved.” Beside Zhu Zhuqing, Xiao Wu looked at her now illusory hand and then turned her gaze to Ning Rongrong.

"No need to look anymore. Rongrong's mental strength is not as strong as Zhuqing's. The Titan Giant Ape's soul is currently in this soul bone," Ling said, looking at Xiaowu's nervous expression.

A heavy soul bone was in Ling's hand, emanating powerful spiritual fluctuations. A surge of spiritual power emanated from it, and Xiao Wu breathed a sigh of relief after sensing Er Ming's aura.

“Rongrong’s mental strength is not strong. I let the Titan Ape’s soul reside in the soul bone. After Quan absorbs this soul bone, he will be able to appear under the influence of Quan’s powerful mental strength.”

"Just like that woman and the golden-red Suanni from earlier?"

"Yes."

"Where's Wei'er?"

"Don't worry, Da Ming's soul is also safe and sound." Wei'er's voice came from not far away, and then she appeared directly in front of Zhu Zhuqing and Ning Rongrong, nodding as she looked at their soul rings and soul power levels.

"how?"

"I'm currently at level 72," Zhu Zhuqing said directly when she saw Wei'er and Ding Quan looking at her.

“I’m level 71.” Ning Rongrong stared blankly at the Nine Treasures Glazed Pagoda in her hand. She hadn’t expected that in such a short time, her level would go from Soul King to Soul Saint.

Two yellow, two purple, two black, and one red! Seven terrifying spirit rings revolved around the Nine Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda, and the flowing light reflected by the nine colors made the surroundings exceptionally dazzling.

A 100,000-year seventh spirit ring. I never thought I could have a 100,000-year spirit ring.

With the Nine Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda possessing a seventh spirit ring that lasts for 100,000 years, and considering his own age, it's unimaginable how far he can go in the future.

Feeling the feedback from her seventh soul skill, Martial Soul True Body, Ning Rongrong looked somewhat dazed.

"My seventh soul skill, Nine-Colored True Body, reduces the soul power consumption of all my soul skills by 70% after release, and all my soul skills can be applied to myself, so the actual soul power consumption will be even less." Ning Rongrong came back to her senses and saw that everyone's eyes were on her. "At the same time, the quality of my soul power has become much stronger, and the soul power required for each soul skill has become much less. With my current soul power, I should be able to assist a Title Douluo, or even a Super Douluo, for a long time."

Ning Rongrong spoke with some excitement, her voice trembling with the thought that such a powerful effect probably surpassed that of her father, Ning Fengzhi, and that her current soul power should also exceed his.

His eyes were drawn to the blood-red 100,000-year soul ring on the outermost edge of the Nine Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda. As expected of the number one treasure on the Soul Master's Dream Ranking, the 100,000-year soul ring was incredibly powerful, greatly enhancing his own support abilities.

His current soul power is only level 71, but the soul power in his body has surpassed that of an ordinary Soul Saint.

"Can they assist a Super Douluo for a long time?" Everyone's eyes lit up. Although they were only Soul Saints, their true strength was no different from that of a Title Douluo.

Previously, Ning Rongrong couldn't even support Shui Bing'er for very long, but now she can support almost everyone present.

"I had Erming use the energy from his spirit ring to improve the quality of your spirit power. Although your current spirit power quality is not as good as a Title Douluo, it is more than enough to rival a Soul Douluo," Ling said, watching Ning Rongrong still feeling the spirit power in her body.

As someone with immense and refined soul power, Ling was well aware of the importance of the quality of soul power.

Ning Rongrong obviously cannot possess the ultimate attribute, but she can still improve the quality of her soul power and extend her support time.

"I see." Ning Rongrong nodded. She knew that although Ding Quan and the others only had seven rings, their soul power was so vast that even some titled Douluo would stop in their tracks, and the soul power pressure they generated even exceeded that of some titled Douluo.

"And what about you, Zhuqing?"

"My Martial Soul True Form comes from Xiao Wu. After releasing the Martial Soul True Form, all my attributes increase several times, especially my speed. Although I did not go for a pure sensitivity type, my speed now definitely surpasses that of a speed-attack type Soul Masters. At the same time, my Netherworld Cat can transform into a void state, making it impossible for others to attack me, but it cannot last for too long."

“Void.” Ding Quan understood. Although Xiao Wu’s skills were not strong in attack, their effects were extremely powerful. Such skills could only be used to escape in the hands of the weak, but in the hands of the strong, they could be used to their fullest extent.

"Xiao Wu also provided me with a piece of her left leg bone. The soul skills are two of Xiao Wu's commonly used skills: Golden Body and Teleportation. One can make me invincible for three seconds, but it can only be used three times in a short period of time. Perhaps someone whose strength far surpasses mine can break through it by using a special skill." Zhu Zhuqing looked at Xiao Wu's spiritual body beside her. Obviously, this skill had not been able to defend against Bibi Dong's soul skills. "The other one, Teleportation, allows me to move instantly within a hundred-meter range. It has a very short cooldown and can be used multiple times in a short period of time without any limit on the number of times."

"Such a powerful skill has no limit on the number of uses?" Shui Bing'er was somewhat surprised. Such a skill could render many of the enemy's skills ineffective, and Zhu Zhuqing's two skills together could provide immunity to a lot of attacks. Now, with the addition of this skill, wouldn't it make up for the last weakness?

Before Zhu Zhuqing's soul power is exhausted, it becomes extremely difficult to hurt her.

Both of these skills were within Ding Quan's expectations. Xiao Wu's two most powerful skills are Golden Body and Teleportation. The Soft Bone Rabbit is too weak. Once it grows to the level of 100,000 years, its life-saving skills will be maxed out.

"And this too." A soul bone flew out from beside the corpse of the Soft Bone Rabbit, which had already transformed into its original form, and landed in Ding Quan's hand.

"This is?"

"This is a piece of my right leg bone that I absorbed. It's about 50,000 years old and provides the soul skill of concealment, which can hide one's aura and soul power." Everyone's gaze turned to Xiao Wu's soul beside her, and she spoke directly upon seeing this.

"A soul bone over 50,000 years old, and a soul skill like this?"

Ding Quan looked at the tiger bone, then handed the soul bone directly to Ning Rongrong who was standing next to him.

"Give it to me?!" Ning Rongrong was very surprised. This was a soul bone that was over 50,000 years old. Why did these people seem so indifferent?

"Only you, Wei'er, and Bing'er here don't have right leg bones, so the skills of this soul bone aren't suitable for them, and of course, they're not very suitable for you either. You didn't absorb the Titan Ape's soul bone, so you can have this soul bone."

"Is that so?" Ning Rongrong glanced at the Titan Giant Ape's soul bone in Ling's hand, then took the right leg bone.

"Also, Quan, this is for you." Ling handed the Titan Ape's left arm soul bone to Ding Quan. "It contains the Titan Ape's soul and won't last long."

"Understood. Also, be careful!"

“I know!” Ling nodded, clearly having also noticed that there was someone nearby.

Ding Quan nodded upon hearing this, placed the soul bone on his left arm, circulated his soul power, and sat cross-legged to absorb it. At the same time, a golden halo enveloped him, and a trace of the soul bone's aura was drawn into Ding Quan's spiritual sea.

"Rongrong, if you want to absorb this soul bone, you can do it now."

"The skills of this soul bone are not suitable for me."

"You can decide for yourself." Ling and Wei'er watched as Ning Rongrong put the right leg bone away in a box, and then said nothing more.

This soul bone did not significantly improve Ning Rongrong's abilities, and the absorption of soul bones is irreversible, indicating that Ning Rongrong was not focused solely on increasing her strength.

A powerful surge of soul energy emanated from Ding Quan's left arm. The immense energy did not cause Ding Quan any discomfort. The soul energy within Ding Quan's body was even greater than the energy contained in this soul bone.

The Titan Ape was indeed powerful, but all of Ding Quan's soul bones were over 100,000 years old, with his right arm soul bone being a staggering 700,000 years old. This Titan Ape soul bone wasn't particularly outstanding among Ding Quan's other soul bones.

Erming was also stunned as he looked at the incredibly vast sea of ​​spirit before him. Was this person's spiritual power too strong? Such powerful spiritual power was something that a human soul master at the seventh ring could possess.

However, in this way, Sister Xiaowu's decision was indeed correct; this person named Ding Quan might really be able to reach that point.

Titan Giant Ape Erming's gaze fell upon the center of the Sea of ​​Spirit, where a long sword floated in the air, its sharp aura making it difficult for the beast to look directly at it.

More importantly, around this enormous sword, a golden dragon over a hundred meters long coiled around it, and directly below the sword, a golden-red Suanni lay there resting.

Those beings possessing true dragon bloodlines have now reached an age of over 100,000 years.

Even if I were also 100,000 years old, I would probably find it difficult to defeat such beings.

What terrified the Titan Ape even more was that a tiny, snow-white figure was watching it from above the swirling golden dragon head.

This is a ferocious beast, and an extremely terrifying one at that.

Thinking of the red soul ring with seven golden patterns on Ding Quan's body.

A terrifying being with a lifespan of 700,000 years, such a powerful being actually became Ding Quan's soul ring. If someone with a seven-ring soul ring were to absorb it, there would only be one possibility: through sacrifice, and only by sacrificing one's soul, just like Ding Quan himself.

Thinking this, Erming released his limited spiritual power, drawing the energy from his soul bone to quickly merge into Ding Quan's body.

Meanwhile, the outside world.

"This is!" Ling saw strong soul power fluctuations on Ding Quan's limbs and head. Immediately, a soul ring on his body flashed, and he used his second soul skill. At the same time, a silver domain enveloped the surroundings. He looked in one direction, and the person was nearby.

The reaction on Ding Quan's body was clearly the aura of a soul bone, and Ding Quan had obtained a soul bone from Tang Hao, even though the other party was unwilling.

"This is a soul bone!" Ning Rongrong exclaimed, observing the reaction on Ding Quan's body. Only a soul bone could possibly be present in such a location.

Have you absorbed the remaining soul bones, excluding the torso?
Zhu Zhuqing watched the reaction of the soul bone on Ding Quan's body, and then looked at the somewhat illusory Xiao Wu beside her. She was also quite shocked. She could also feel that the aura on these soul bones was no less than that of the soul bone that Xiao Wu had given her earlier.

One hundred thousand year soul bone!
Still five yuan!

Zhu Zhuqing glanced at Shui Bing'er, who was surprised but not unexpected, and it seemed that she knew the number of soul bones on Ding Quan's body.

"Five 100,000-year-old soul bones! You guys!" Although Xiao Wu was now in a soul form, she was still shocked. Five 100,000-year-old soul bones meant that he had hunted down five 100,000-year-old soul beasts.

“We haven’t hunted a single 100,000-year-old soul beast yet.” Ling looked at Xiao Wu’s shocked expression. “Do you really think I can absorb this soul ring when I’m at the sixth soul ring stage?” Ling released her martial soul, and seven soul rings appeared on her body: one yellow, two purple, two black, and two red.

"Could it be!"

"It was obtained through the sacrifice of a soul beast." Shui Bing'er's sixth soul ring was obtained through the sacrifice of a polar phoenix. The soul of this polar phoenix is ​​still in her spiritual sea, and because her martial soul is an ice phoenix, it is now evolving towards becoming an ice phoenix.

"Two golden patterns, from a ferocious beast over two hundred thousand years old!" Zhu Zhuqing finally saw the soul ring clearly; the two golden patterns on it were extremely clear at this distance.

"That's right. Even if a Soul Master reaches level 90, they probably wouldn't be able to absorb a Soul Ring of this age."

Everyone was taken aback upon hearing this. Indeed, although it is generally acknowledged that a red spirit ring can only be absorbed when a spirit master advances to the title of Douluo, its lifespan is only 100,000 years.

It has existed for two hundred thousand years, such a long period of time.
It's important to understand that the difference between a 10,000-year soul ring and a 20,000-year soul ring is equivalent to the difference between a Soul King and a Soul Emperor—the difference is several times greater.

The difference between 100,000 years and 200,000 years is far more than just double the number of years.

Suddenly, the Dragon Abyss Sword flew out from Ding Quan's body. Before everyone's eyes, seven soul rings—two yellow, one purple, two black, one gray, and one red—flew out from the mark on the Dragon Abyss Sword.

To everyone's astonishment, the five spirit rings in front of him began to flicker, and their fluctuations eventually aligned with the aura of the spirit bones on Ding Quan's body.

“Seven golden runes!” Ning Rongrong and Zhu Zhuqing carefully examined the golden soul ring on Ding Quan’s body. Their voices were low and incredulous. Although they knew it was a ferocious beast soul ring, they were still shocked to confirm it.

Even a titled Douluo would find it difficult to deal with a 100,000-year-old soul beast, let alone a Super Douluo.

What kind of power would a 700,000-year-old soul beast possess?

"That senior sacrificed herself to Quan because she saw that he had the potential to become a god. Her strength was above the ordinary level 99. According to Quan, her strength could be called a demigod."

"Godhood! A level 99 demigod." Ning Rongrong's expression was slightly shocked. Sure enough, although Ding Quan had mentioned the possibility of becoming a god when the several great soul beasts were sacrificed, she now saw the hope of becoming a god in Ding Quan, a level 99 demigod.

Grandpa Jian's guess was true. The Shrek group went to Seagod Island to search for the inheritance of the divine position, but they didn't know if it had any results. But now, someone who had the potential to become a god had actually appeared in front of them.

Moreover, it's not just Ding Quan who might be in this situation; Ling and Wei'er are probably the same. Otherwise, the ferocious beast wouldn't have sacrificed itself to Ling.

Click, click, click!
Some harsh and terrifying sounds came from Ding Quan's body. To the astonishment of the group, some bone material actually appeared on Ding Quan's limbs and head, and then enveloped Ding Quan.

"Is this armor?"

"Soul Bone Armor!"

The bones spreading across Ding Quan's head and limbs quietly fused together, making Ding Quan look like he was wearing a suit of armor. However, this armor was a bit strange, as it did not cover his chest and back.

It has a golden dragon pattern on its head, a brownish-yellow diamond pattern on its left arm, a white snowflake pattern on its right arm, a red eagle-like stripe on its left leg, and green plant patterns on its right leg.

At the same time, soul power gathered in Ding Quan's chest. Ling and Wei'er understood that this was Ding Quan's Five Elements Qi.

Then, under their gazes, the bones in Ding Quan's limbs and head slowly filled Ding Quan's chest and back.

It transformed into a set of armor with five colors, extremely strange yet somehow harmonious.

"This is a soul-bone fusion technique?!" Ning Rongrong suddenly realized something, her tone incredulous.
