Douluo Dragon King: Martial Soul Spring and Autumn Cicada, Lord of Time

Chapter 105 Na'er, are you alright?

As Zhao Tao's soul power was injected into the dark gold dinosaur claw bear's right palm bone in front of him.

The size of the dark gold dinosaur's right palm bone also trembled and shrank continuously.

At the same time, its original black and gold color gradually became transparent.

As Zhao Tao reached out, the dark gold dinosaur claw bear's right palm bone completely etherealized, merging with Zhao Tao's palm.

Instantly, Zhao Tao also felt a surge of violent soul power and blood energy gushing out from his right palm, heading towards his limbs and bones.

That force was extremely violent, unruly, and difficult to subdue, impacting Zhao Tao's body.

"Refine it for me!"

However, Zhao Tao, who had been through countless battles, showed no panic. Instead, he silently channeled his soul power to tame this wild force.

Time flies, and several hours have passed in a flash.

After Zhao Tao's best efforts in taming it, he finally succeeded in fusing the right palm bone of the Dark Gold Terrorclaw Bear.

Taking a deep breath, Zhao Tao slowly stood up.

"How is it? How's the result?"

Looking at Zhao Tao as he stood up, Gu Yue asked him curiously.

"The effect is fantastic. I feel that my physical fitness has improved by about 50%."

After moving around for a while and feeling the changes in his body, Zhao Tao slowly made a judgment.

"A 50% improvement in physical fitness? Not bad!"

"By the way, after fusing with this Dark Gold Terrorclaw Bear's right paw bone, did you gain a Soul Bone Skill?"

Hearing Zhao Tao's words, Gu Yue smiled and nodded, then asked further.

"Of course, my newly acquired soul bone skill is called Dark Gold Sky-Tearing Slash!"

Nodding, Zhao Tao began to explain calmly.

Dark Gold Sky-Tearing Slash – this is the soul bone skill that the Dark Gold Terror Claw Bear's right palm bone bestowed upon Zhao Tao!

Once activated, Zhao Tao's right hand can transform into the claw of a Dark Gold Terrorclaw Bear!

During release, the strength of the right arm increases threefold, and it also gains the powerful crushing effect of the Dark Gold Terrorclaw Bear Claws, enough to tear the heavens and the earth apart!

"This soul skill seems to conflict somewhat with your Time Burial Sword!"

Upon hearing Zhao Tao's words, Gu Yue frowned, seemingly somewhat dissatisfied with the effect of this soul skill.

After all, aside from the powerful enhancement, the greatest effect of the "Dark Gold Sky-Tearing Slash" lies in its ability to shatter.

However, Zhao Tao's "Time Burial Sword" soul skill already possesses extremely powerful defense-breaking capabilities, even capable of cutting through the bones of a Dark Gold Terrorclaw Bear.

"Moon, you're right. This Soul Bone Skill is indeed somewhat similar in effect to my Time Burial Sword."

"But I still think it's a pretty good skill!"

Upon hearing Gu Yue's words, Zhao Tao shook his head and began to analyze:

"My Time Burial Sword, although it also has a powerful ability to break through defenses, relies more on the erosion of the power of time."

"On the one hand, this corrosive power requires a lot of time power, which greatly depletes my soul power."

"On the other hand, if you encounter mechs or battle armor, the corrosive effect of the power of time on metal is not that strong."

"After all, metals are different from living organisms; they can exist for thousands or tens of thousands of years, so the power of time has a significantly reduced effect on them."

"Although the Dark Gold Sky-Tearing Slash also breaks through defenses, it is a physical destruction, a tearing apart of the material structure."

"In essence, it is not the same as the defense-breaking mode of the Time Burial Sword. If it is to deal with inanimate objects, the Dark Gold Sky-Tearing Slash is obviously much stronger than the Time Burial Sword."

"Furthermore, while the Time Burial Sword is my primary attack method, the enemy will definitely be on guard. However, the Dark Gold Sky-Tearing Slash, as a soul bone skill, can achieve a surprise attack."

With a faint smile on his face, Zhao Tao calmly began to explain.

"I see, that's not bad."

Hearing Zhao Tao's words, Gu Yue finally nodded in satisfaction.

Meanwhile, the other students in the zero-class program all cast envious glances at them.

"Now that the trial is over, let's go."

After saying that, Zhao Tao led the students of Class Zero away from the Spirit Ascension Platform.

"Good job. Get ready. We'll head to Shrek City in three days."

Looking at the students from Class Zero who had successfully passed the test, Wu Changkong smiled and nodded, then gave instructions.

Immediately afterwards, he led the students of Class Zero back to Donghai Academy.

"Zhao Tao, what you fused with in the Spirit Ascension Platform was a soul bone?"

Upon returning to the academy, Wu Changkong immediately summoned Zhao Tao to his office.

"Yes, Teacher Wu, I fused a soul bone in the Spirit Ascension Platform."

Upon hearing Wu Changkong's words, Zhao Tao did not hide anything. With a thought, he activated his soul bone.

"Zhao Tao, I must say, you're incredibly lucky!"

"Even I, your master, do not possess a soul bone to this day!"

Looking at the golden light emanating from Zhao Tao's right hand, a hint of envy flashed in Wu Changkong's eyes.

"Hehe, I was just lucky."

Upon hearing Wu Changkong's words, Zhao Tao scratched his head.

"Alright, stop acting all innocent after getting such a good deal. You should cherish this incredible opportunity!"

"Remember this, if you go to Shrek Academy in the future, you can use this soul bone normally within the academy."

"Once you leave the academy, it's best not to use your Soul Bone Skill before you become a One-Word Battle Armor Master!"

"Soul bones are very precious resources. It's possible you've been targeted by bad guys, which could lead to a lot of trouble!"

"This society is incredibly treacherous, unlike the innocent environment of academia. There's a lot of cannibalism here!"

Patting Zhao Tao on the shoulder, Wu Changkong solemnly gave him some advice.

"Thank you, Teacher Wu, I understand!"

Zhao Tao nodded upon hearing Wu Changkong's words.

"Alright, get three days of rest and get ready to go to Shrek City!"

"I believe that with your abilities, entering the inner court will be as easy as eating and drinking."

"However, remember to help your teammates as much as you can. Without your and Gu Yue's help, they can barely get into the academy, which is quite risky."

Nodding slightly, Wu Changkong gave Zhao Tao a few more instructions before dismissing him.

Three days later.

Zhao Tao didn't have any free time during those three days.

He didn't have much luggage; he just needed to say goodbye to some people.

For example, he went to the Donghai City Forging Association to bid a reluctant farewell to Mu Xi and Mu Chen.

He took some time to return to Aolai City to visit Lin Ximeng, who had taken care of him for three years and was now married with children.

Finally, everything is ready.

Zhao Tao shouldered his bag and, following Gu Yue, Xu Xiaoyan, Xie Xie, and Tang Wulin, arrived at the Soul Guidance Train station in Donghai City under the guidance of Wu Changkong.

Soon, the train departed, and the young men and women left the familiar Donghai City to embark on a new journey!

"Na'er, I've come to find you!"

As Zhao Tao watched Donghai City recede into the distance and grow smaller and smaller, his heart began to surge with emotion.

It's been three years, Na'er, how are you?
