Wuhun Luo Sanpao? I am the Dragon Emperor!

Chapter 264 Emerging from the Gloom, Tang San's New Soul Bone

Limestone College.

The night was eerily quiet, and the moonlight cast long shadows of the locust trees on the window paper.

At this moment, Tang San was curled up in the corner of the bed.

Since his soul power plummeted from level 37 to level 27, he has locked himself in his room, refusing to eat or drink.

Although the physical wounds on my back have long since scabbed over, the wounds in my heart cannot heal.

"Third brother..."

At this moment, Xiao Wu was lying on the edge of the bed.

His tired eyes made him look several years older.

She was so tired. Ever since Tang San's accident, she had been unwilling to go out or cultivate, which was tantamount to giving up on herself.

She stayed by Tang San's side the whole time.

However, after days of guarding her, she finally couldn't hold on any longer and fell asleep.

……

Just as dawn was breaking, Liu Erlong and Yu Xiaogang came together to visit Tang San.

Seeing that Xiao Wu was asleep by the bedside again, Liu Erlong felt a pang of heartache and tucked a corner of the blanket over her.

Yu Xiaogang also sighed.

He would visit Tang San every day, but no matter how much he encouraged him, Tang San wouldn't listen.

"The path to becoming strong is always fraught with thorns, so how can we give up so easily!"

"Teacher, I've overcome all the hardships along the way."

"..."

Yu Xiaogang has said similar things countless times, but to no avail.

Liu Erlong and Zhao Wuji were also very worried. With the Advanced Soul Master Academy Elite Competition just around the corner, what should they do with the only control-type Soul Master in their team in such a dejected state?

The group sighed a few times and quietly left the room so as not to disturb Tang San.

Even after everyone left, Tang San's expression remained unchanged.

He's like a puppet now.

Sunlight climbed from the window frame to my feet, only to be replaced by moonlight; it was the dead of night again.

But tonight, something seems different.

Tang San's Purple Demon Eyes flashed, catching a glimpse of a dark shadow flashing past in the distant tree shadows.

The familiar silhouette immediately excited Tang San, and his heart began to pound wildly.

Immediately, he got up quietly, afraid of waking Xiao Wu.

Pushing open the creaking wooden door, Tang San took a deep breath and silently slipped into the woods, following the figure as he went.

Only when they reached a dense forest, where no one was around, did Tang San excitedly shout, "Dad! Is that you?"

The tall, dark figure paused under the old locust tree and slowly turned around.

He still wore the same tattered black robe, had messy hair, and those eyes that, though weathered, remained sharp.

It was none other than Tang Hao.

"Mistress, I've heard about what happened to you." Tang Hao's voice was very low.

But the concern from his father made Tang San's nose tingle, and tears almost welled up in his eyes.

His knees buckled, and he collapsed to his knees with a thud, his forehead touching the cold earth.
"I'm sorry... Dad... I'm so useless..."

Tang Hao didn't answer, but strode forward and helped his son up.

Seeing Tang Hao's calm and serious expression, Tang San also suppressed his sadness.

The father and son sat on the ground.

Tang Hao took out a cloth bag from his bosom, and after unwrapping it layer by layer, he revealed a bone that was entirely yellowish-brown.

The surface of the bone was covered with fine cracks, as if it might shatter at any moment, yet it also emitted a chilling energy fluctuation.

"This is……"

"The 25,000-year-old rock-cracked arm bone is extremely explosive."

Upon hearing this, Tang San's pupils contracted sharply.

A soul bone! And it's at the 25,000-year level! Countless soul masters would kill for it.

During the time Tang Hao was away, he went to Sunset Forest and hunted down ten-thousand-year-old soul beasts. He finally obtained this soul bone with excellent age and attributes.

"In your current state, you cannot attach a spirit ring to your second spirit, so you have no other means of attack besides the Chaotic Cloak Hammer Technique."

Tang Hao said.

Upon hearing this, Tang San lowered his head in shame. He clearly possessed twin martial souls, but his second martial soul was useless.

In the upcoming Soul Master Competition, he might not even be as good as a substitute.

"However, this soul bone will allow you to unleash attack power no weaker than that of a Soul King."

With that, Tang Hao solemnly placed the soul bone in Tang San's palm. "Now, absorb it." Upon receiving the soul bone, Tang San's hand trembled slightly. His fingers traced the cracks in the soul bone, and he could feel the violent power contained within—the power of the earth and rocks, heavy and direct.

Immediately, he looked up sharply, a long-lost fighting spirit igniting in his eyes. He took a deep breath, sat cross-legged, and placed the soul bone on his left arm.

In an instant, a violent energy surged into his body like a flood, impacting his parched meridians. It felt as if countless pebbles were rolling in his blood vessels, and the bones of his left arm made a creaking sound.

Tang San grunted, and a yellowish-brown light rose from his left arm, causing his soul power to jump directly from level 27 to level 29!
Although there is still a gap from the original level 37, there is hope that at least in the short term, we can return to the Soul Master level.

Tang Hao looked at the light emanating from his left arm, a rare smile curving his lips: "Come find me here at midnight tomorrow night, and I will teach you the Nine Techniques of Haotian."

Before he finished speaking, his figure had already blended into the shadows of the forest.

Tang San was about to say something when he realized that the forest was already empty.

Only the rustling of leaves in the night wind made it seem as if everything that had just happened was an illusion.

……

Xiao Wu was startled awake when the first rays of sunlight streamed into the dormitory in the early morning.

She glanced at the bed instinctively.

empty!

Tang San has disappeared!
"Third Brother!"

Xiao Wu jumped up in a panic, her long pink hair standing on end.

Just as she was about to rush out the door, she saw the door being gently pushed open.

Tang San walked in carrying breakfast, a long-lost smile on his face: "You're awake?"

Xiao Wu stood there, stunned, her pink eyes wide open.

The Tang San before my eyes seemed like a different person. Although he was still haggard, his eyes were bright and his back was straight.

Most remarkably, the soul power emanating from his body was significantly stronger than it had been yesterday.

"You..." Xiao Wu's lips trembled, and she didn't know what to say for a moment.

Tang San smiled faintly and placed the breakfast on the table. The steaming porridge emitted an enticing aroma.

"Are you hungry? Let's eat together."

Xiao Wu suddenly pounced on Tang San, hugged him tightly around the waist, and buried her face in his back.

She could hear his strong heartbeat and feel his warm body temperature.

Thankfully, this wasn't a dream.

Her third brother really came back.

"sorry that I had you worried."

Tang San turned around and gently stroked her long hair, his voice tender.

Soon, breakfast was over.

Tang San and Xiao Wu arrived at the training ground together.

From afar, you could see the Shrek students and several Gray Rock substitutes warming up on the training field.

Ning Rongrong suddenly exclaimed, "Look!"

Everyone looked in the direction of the sound and saw Tang San and Xiao Wu walking side by side.

Tang San looked radiant in the sunlight, showing no sign of dejection whatsoever.
"Little San!"

Dai Mubai was the first to rush forward and punched Tang San's shoulder hard.

"You finally... huh?"

He stared wide-eyed at his fist in disbelief.

Dai Mubai felt as if he had hit a steel plate.

How come the mistress is so much healthier now?

Tang San smiled slightly, said nothing more, and immediately joined them in training.

Ning Rongrong and Oscar also gathered around, bombarding them with questions.

Xiao Wu stood to the side, her pink eyes filled with tenderness.

She was happier than anyone else that Tang San could regain his strength.

At this moment, Liu Erlong and Yu Xiaogang also came over.

Liu Erlong nudged Yu Xiaogang with his elbow: "Looks like he listened to everything you said yesterday. It's all thanks to you!"

Yu Xiaogang paused for a moment, then smiled with relief: "After all, he is my personal disciple. If I don't help him, no one else will."

Although we don't know what happened to Tang San, seeing his disciple regain his confidence is more important than anything else.

"All right!"

Yu Xiaogang clapped his hands, drawing everyone's attention: "Now that Xiao San is back in the team, let's get back to training. There are only three months left until the Soul Master Competition!"

Everyone responded in unison, and the training ground instantly became a hive of energy.
