Triggering a treasure chest in Douluo Continent

Chapter 106 Xuanyuan, Strengthening

"A-Yin, I've come to see you."

With a boom, the waterfall's flow reversed, and Tang Hao's figure was launched into the air. After pressing the cliff twice, the stone wall of the cave opened automatically.

Upon entering the cave, nothing seemed out of the ordinary.

When Tang Hao reached the deepest part of the cave, he was stunned and stood there dumbfounded when he saw the empty mound of earth on the ground.

"Ah Yin! Ah Yin! Where did you go!" Tang Hao's expression suddenly changed, his eyes filled with unconcealed panic.

"This is..." Tang Hao quickly noticed the words on the wall, and his eyes instantly turned blood red.

Back then, only he and the people from the Spirit Hall knew about the battle. Looking at the words on the wall, Tang Hao immediately knew that everything in front of him was done by the people from the Spirit Hall. Endless anger surged from the bottom of his heart, and his eyes were full of madness.

But Tang Hao patiently looked towards the lower left corner.

Because the words on the wall included, "As for who I am... my name is in the bottom left corner, see for yourself."

Looking along the corner of the wall, even with Tang Hao's amazing eyesight, he could only make out the tiny, ant-sized words by getting very close.

"Your deceased great-grandfather, Tang Chen!"

Not only did they steal his bones and his wife, but they also insulted his elders. Upon seeing this, Tang Hao felt a surge of blood well up in his mouth, and he was so angry that he vomited blood.

"Spirit Hall!" Tang Hao roared furiously, "I will never share the same sky with you!"

……

Inside the cave on the other side.

Shi Quan slept here for three days before slowly waking up, enveloped in the warmth emanating from his back.

As I always say, anything produced by the system is guaranteed to be of high quality.

Shi Quan's body had already undergone a complete transformation due to the Ten-Complete Tonic Pill. After the Dragon Spine absorbed it, his body underwent another transformation, and his talent seemed to have increased significantly. His internal meridians and bones also underwent another metamorphosis. Whether it was the toughness or the width of his meridians, they were several times stronger than before.

The Dragon Spine's abilities are also quite unique.

Firstly, it can increase Shi Quan's cultivation speed.

It also comes with a special soul skill.

Shi Quan named it Huangwei, also known as the Emperor's Majesty.

As the saying goes, the emperor's might is vast and powerful. It can suppress enemies, tame all things, and inspire worship in them. This oppressive feeling is especially strong for opponents who have been defeated by Shi Quan.

This soul skill and the Soul Gathering and Soul-Taming Technique can complement each other, and the combination of the two may produce unexpected results.

This is only part of the Dragonspine's abilities.

Because the dragon's spine also has a special shape.

Shi Quan gently gripped the back of his neck and pulled, and a golden dragon spine blade appeared in his hand.

This dragon spine blade is unique in its design, resembling a sword yet not a sword, resembling a knife yet not a knife.

The long blade is nearly 1.5 meters long, with four edges. The two sides are long, and the middle section is concave between the two edges. The long blade has no handle and the sections are interlocked, as if they were one piece. The patterns on it are dense, showing mountains, rivers, the sun, the moon and stars.

Because the dragon's spine blade looks very much like the Xuanyuan Sword, Shi Quan directly named this form of dragon spine Xuanyuan.

With a light wave of his hand, a flash of golden light appeared, and a large gash was sliced ​​open in the stone wall in front of Shi Quan, demonstrating just how astonishingly sharp the dragon's spine was in its Xuanyuan state.

"The external soul bone modified by the system is indeed special."

Shi Quan looked at the Xuanyuan in his hand with amazement in his eyes. The power of the Xuanyuan was definitely not as simple as it seemed on the surface. There were still many mysteries waiting for him to discover.

With Xuanyuan, he finally had a weapon.

In the process of human evolution, the reason why we abandoned claws was to better use tools to deal with various situations, and weapons are equivalent to human claws!

"My soul power only increased by one level, and this increase was due to the medicinal effects within my body."

Shi Quan's soul power reached level thirty-seven. The dragon spine did not bring an increase in soul power; its improvement was more for Shi Quan's entire body.

Moreover, this improvement is enormous. As the support of the human body, the spine plays a crucial role in connecting the upper and lower body. The integration of the dragon spine will comprehensively enhance Shi Quan's body, strengthening his speed, strength, defense, agility, perception, and the functions of his internal organs.

With smooth blood and qi circulation, it feels as if there is inexhaustible energy throughout the body, a feeling that is indescribably comfortable.

"Extract the Soul Bone Modifier."

After examining the changes in his body, Shi Quan had a thought, and a furnace covered with golden patterns appeared in his hand.

The furnace was about the size of a human head, oval in shape, and decorated with exquisite gold patterns all over its body, with a hollow center.

With the acquisition of the Soul Bone Modifier, the method of using it also entered Shi Quan's mind.

With a light tap of the finger, a dialog box resembling a game screen appears above the furnace.

This soul bone modifier comes from a game. You should know that soul bones in games are readily available, making them easy to enhance.

But in reality, it's different. Once a soul bone is integrated into the body, except for the limbs, anyone who wants to remove it will have to pay the price of their life.

Therefore, Shi Quan decided to try and see if this soul bone modifier could strengthen and modify the soul bone that had already been integrated into his body.

This is also why Shi Quan was the first to fuse with the external soul bone of the dragon spine.

Shi Quan tried to upload the Xuanyuan in his hand to the Soul Bone slot in the dialog box. To Shi Quan's disappointment, the Soul Bone Modifier did not respond at all. In other words, if a Soul Bone wants to be modified and strengthened, it can only be done on its own. If it is inside a human body, it cannot be modified or strengthened.

But thinking about it, it makes sense. In the game, to enhance a soul bone, you have to remove the soul bone first.

Since that's the case, the Blue Silver Emperor Soul Bone will have to be put on hold for now, Shi Quan thought to himself.

The Blue Silver Emperor Soul Bone has two abilities: an endless healing power and flight. These two abilities are not very useful to Shi Quan. Rather than absorbing them, it would be better to keep them for now and find an opportunity to strengthen and modify them before absorbing them.

He pressed the Xuanyuan in his hand against his chest, and the golden Xuanyuan instantly transformed into golden light and returned to Shi Quan's body.

Shi Quan then took out the Eight Spider Spears from his treasure bag.

As soon as Shi Quan had a thought, the Eight Spider Spears shrank rapidly and fell into the Soul Bone Modifier in Shi Quan's hand. The appearance of the Eight Spider Spears also appeared on the interface of the Soul Bone Modifier.

"Extracting Bloodline Crystals."

The golden, sacred dragon bloodline crystal appeared in Shi Quan's hand.

Before absorbing the dragon spine, Shi Quan had some hesitation about strengthening and modifying the Eight Spider Spears. After absorbing the dragon spine, Shi Quan determined the direction of strengthening and modifying the Eight Spider Spears, which was to absorb the bloodline of the Holy Dragon.

The power of the dragon spine is vast and sharp, belonging to the sacred, bright, and positive energy attribute. Moreover, it is the bone of the human emperor, above all others, the common ruler of the human race.

If the Eight Spider Lances absorb the bloodline of the Holy Dragon, its attributes will definitely change, transforming into the Holy Light attribute. Moreover, the Holy Dragon is the head of all dragons, above all dragons and below the Dragon God, so it is at least a Dragon Emperor, right?

Moreover, the dragon spine is located at the human spine, and the eight spider spears are located at the human ribs, which are connected to the spine.

The two soul bones are connected.

If their auras match, their compatibility will naturally be much higher, and it's not impossible that a soul-bone fusion skill might even emerge.

As for whether the Holy Dragon bloodline will assimilate the Devouring attribute of the Eight Spider Lances, Shi Quan can only let nature take its course. Generally speaking, enhancement is about discarding the dross and keeping the essence. As the most powerful attribute of the Eight Spider Lances, the Devouring attribute has a chance of being retained.

With a thought in his mind, the bloodline of the sacred dragon immediately flowed into the soul bone modifier.

Looking at the enhancement button above, Shi Quan suddenly remembered something: this soul bone modification device has a certain probability of failure.

My hand, which was just about to press down, suddenly stopped in mid-air.

"With such good fortune, there shouldn't be any problems, right?"

After all, both the external soul bone and the bloodline of the sacred dragon are rare treasures. He would be heartbroken if they were destroyed.

After thinking it over, Shi Quan pressed the button anyway.

The scene changed.

Upon seeing the words on the screen, Shi Quan's face immediately darkened. It wasn't because of the failure, but because the screen was prompting him to inject energy!

Just like upgrading in a game requires gold coins, activating the Soul Bone Modifier requires not only materials but also energy from Stones to perform the upgrade.

"Isn't it possible to automatically absorb energy and transform it like an automated alchemy furnace?"

Shi Quan frowned as he looked at the prompt on the screen. Suddenly, he noticed a note in the corner of the screen.

The amount of energy injected has a certain impact on the success rate of soul bone enhancement and modification.

Suddenly remembering something, Shi Quan began to circulate his internal energy, which surged towards the modifier in his hand. The next second, the image on the modifier changed into a progress bar.

"It really works!" Shi Quan's eyes lit up, and under his guidance, the internal energy in his body flowed continuously into the Soul Bone Modifier.

He had been wondering how to deal with this energy issue, but after seeing this note, Shi Quan realized that he was essentially a human power bank, and his internal energy was just that—energy.

Based on the notes, the injected energy has a certain impact on the enhancement. It can be inferred that different types of soul power can only enhance the corresponding type of soul bone. If the enhancement energy does not match the soul bone's attribute, it may lead to failure.

Besides enhancing energy, there should also be a connection between the soul bone and the enhancement materials. If they conflict with each other, it may also lead to failure.

However, Shi Quan's internal energy is a mixture of yin and yang, encompassing both yin and yang attributes. It is applicable to the enhancement of almost any attribute. Even for opposing attributes, if his internal energy is used as the enhancement energy source, it may be able to balance and neutralize the two opposing attributes and allow them to merge.

In other words, Shi Quan's internal energy is the best energy source for the Soul Bone Enhancer!

"The system is still the system, I give you a thumbs up."

Shi Quan smiled and continued to inject energy into the Soul Bone Modifier, but as his internal energy was depleted, the smile on Shi Quan's face quickly disappeared, because he found that half of the energy in his body had been consumed, and the energy progress of the Soul Bone Modifier had only just jumped to four percent.

To fully charge it in one go, you'd probably have to squeeze it dry and it still wouldn't be enough...
