In Douluo Continent, his martial soul mutated into Blue Silver Grass.

Chapter 163 Obtain a Soul Bone

Lin Hai seemed to realize this as well, then chuckled in surprise and continued to focus his attention on the battle between Shi Nian and Tang San.

Although Tang San possesses the Purple Demon Eye, he is still at a significant disadvantage.

Lin Hai certainly hoped that Tang San would die, thus reducing a scourge on the mainland, but he could also guess that Tang San would likely escape danger in the end.

Tang San's Hundred Solutions to Hidden Weapons are designed to deal with careless people like Shi Nian.

The reality is like this...

Within the illusionary barrier obscured by time, Shi Nian leaned against a large tree, his seventh spirit ring continuously emitting a dazzling black light. His face was filled with a cruel and perverse grin. It seemed he intended to kill Tang San within this illusion.

Just ten meters away from him, Tang San was lying on the ground, convulsing violently. Blue Silver Grass was swirling around Tang San's body. Shi Nian didn't even need to look to clearly feel that Tang San was on the verge of collapse.

……

Just as Lin Hai had predicted, Tang San... escaped.

Although Tang San didn't have the opportunity to create the Yama's Decree, he had another chance to create another hidden weapon. In the end, he narrowly broke through the illusion and escaped.

"We really shouldn't underestimate him!"

"Now that the other actor in this scene has run away, it's my turn to step in."

Lin Hai licked his lips, a cruel glint in his eyes. "It's time for another scene. Although Shi Nian is injured, I love taking advantage of people's misfortunes."

On the other side, Shi Nian had a gloomy face and was clutching his left arm. "Damn it, that brat actually got away."

Just now, Tang San broke through his seventh soul skill and then quickly threw something at him, which he caught.

However, he did not expect that it was just a smokescreen, and the real killing move was yet to come: the Tang Clan's Hundred Solutions to Hidden Weapons.

So he got injured, and Tang San escaped the environmental barrier, leaving him alone to watch Tang San leave with resentment.

"Who!!!" Suddenly, Time shouted loudly, and unconsciously dodged to the side. However, he had just been poisoned, and his movements were somewhat slow.

Unlike some protagonists who have to greet others upon entering, Lin Hai was already surrounded by fifteen blades that were eager to charge forward.

Swoosh swoosh swoosh~

No sooner had he finished shouting than fifteen sharp blades pierced through him.

He coughed up blood that year; he was careless and didn't dodge.

"Who are you?!" Shi Nian shouted angrily.

Lin Hai frowned. He hadn't been able to resolve the issue in one go. It seemed that a Soul Saint was still a Soul Saint after all, and was very vigilant.

Lin Hai had no intention of paying him any attention, and the fifteen blades turned and charged at Shi Nian again.

While dodging, Shi Nian pondered what kind of ability this was—metal control or telekinesis?

If not 100%, 90% of Shi Nian's strength was related to mental power.

His soul rings flashed as he used an illusion simulation to try and dodge, but this soul skill was practically useless in Lin Hai's eyes.

Lin Hai quickly discovered Shi Nian's true identity.

Shi Nian watched in horror as the fifteen blades that had just pierced his fake body suddenly turned and flew toward him. His pupils contracted.

Shi Nian: How is that possible? I clearly used a soul skill, how could he have discovered me?

咻咻咻～

Shi Nian immediately used his soul power to form a soul power shield in front of him.

The blade couldn't penetrate, and Lin Hai frowned.

The Soul Saint is indeed a Soul Saint; he does possess some skill.

"snort!"

Lin Hai emitted two pale purple beams of light from his eyes, which pierced directly through the soul power shield.

"Oh no!" Shi Nian immediately sensed something was wrong.

Shi Nian was protected by the head bone and was not in any major danger. However, just now, she relaxed her mind and Lin Hai seized the opportunity.

"break!"

Fifteen blades converged at a single point, unleashing a powerful attack that shattered Shi Nian's soul power shield.

fade away.

Passing through the years.

Shi Nian's face was still filled with astonishment. He couldn't believe that he had been hit by a stranger.

Then he fell straight down, his eyes filled with resentment, dying with his eyes wide open.

"My soul bone... is ninety thousand years old," Lin Hai said lightly as he walked to Shi Nian's side.

Lin Hai carried Shi Nian's body to a secluded place, where he and his men worked together to obtain their spoils and destroy the evidence, which, in short, involved cremation.

After some time, in this deserted place, there was only a pile of ashes and a glittering soul bone on the ground.

Lin Hai put on gloves, picked up the rare gem-like head bone, put it away, and then left.

A mere Soul Saint perished because of his arrogance.

……

Back at the hotel, Lin Hai sat alone in his room, the door locked.

And that soul bone was simply placed casually on the table in front of him.

Lin Hai clasped his hands together, pressed them against his nose, and pondered deeply.

He was thinking about how to use this gem-like head bone to maximize its benefits.

The Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School has been searching for gemstone-type soul bones, and if Lin Hai were to trade them to Ning Fengzhi, he would undoubtedly maximize his profits. Not only would he gain wealth, but he would also forge a deep friendship with the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School, further strengthening their alliance and cooperation.

However… based on Lin Hai’s guess about Ning Fengzhi, if Lin Hai were to trade this gem-like head soul bone to Ning Fengzhi, he would definitely leave it for Ning Rongrong.

Because Ning Rongrong is not only his most beloved daughter, but also the one with the highest talent among their Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda martial souls.

If Lin Hai really trades to Ning Fengzhi, and Ning Fengzhi then gives it to Ning Rongrong, wouldn't he be indirectly aiding the enemy?

Ning Rongrong is now, and will likely remain, on the same side as Tang San. Unless Ning Fengzhi takes strong action to suppress Ning Rongrong, Lin Hai will not give her a second glance.

Since he couldn't trade with Ning Fengzhi, he had no choice but to select between Dugu Yan and Meng Yiran. One was the granddaughter of his beloved teacher, and the other was the poisonous granddaughter of the old poison master who had given him significant help.

Lin Hai thought for a while but had no clue. It was quite difficult to figure out who would be suitable to give it to.

Just as Lin Hai was having a headache, he suddenly remembered the reward that the Spirit Hall had given to the overall champion of the All-Continent Advanced Soul Master Academy Elite Tournament.

There are three soul bones.

Before receiving the head soul bone from Meng Shu, Lin Hai's goal was the skull of wisdom, which was the one among the three soul bones and had been condensed for 50,000 years.

Now things are much better; he has a better option. And just then, someone gave him a soul bone, so he can distribute it equally.

Yes, among the members of Lin Hai's Beast Academy team, the only ones he truly cared about were Dugu Yan, Mu Jiabao, Meng Yiran, and Feng Xiaotian.

These four were all his close friends and relatives. The others were acquaintances, but not his closest.

The mundane routine has passed; it's time to get down to business.
