Douluo Continent: Peerless God General, starting by deceiving Qian Renxue

Chapter 35 Tearful Bone Ghost Howling Heavenly Pearl

Lan Xue quickly stepped forward, "Huang'er, do you really want to absorb this 1200-year-old soul ring? Although this earthbound spirit's attack power is not strong, it is sinister and eerie, and its evil aura is extremely heavy. I'm worried that you will be affected."

"Mother, don't worry, the thing I'm least afraid of is ghosts!" Nan Feihuang smiled. Both evil energy and protective energy are the nemesis of ghosts.

As a reincarnated warrior, Nan Feihuang was born with innate qi, and his ghostly body also allowed him to generate evil aura.

The two originally opposing energies were perfectly harmonized within his body.

Therefore, he has absolute confidence.

Nan Feihuang drew the soul ring to himself and sat cross-legged.

Seeing that the absorption of the soul ring had already begun, Lan Xue had no choice but to put aside her inner turmoil and protect her son.

Absorbing a soul ring that was over a thousand years old was not too difficult for Nan Feihuang. In the first half hour, Lan Xue saw that her son's expression was normal and gradually felt relieved.

Half an hour later, something strange happened. Nan Feihuang's face gradually turned ugly. His body was still unharmed, but his soul seemed to have been attacked. Logically speaking, a mere thousand-year soul ring should not have caused soul tremors.

Nan Feihuang's spirit awakens in a mysterious place.

"Could this be the Inner Vision Realm? So this is inside my body?" Nan Feihuang looked around in confusion. If it were the Inner Vision Realm, he should be able to see his own bones or internal organs, but he only saw a blue expanse. When he stepped on the ground, it felt like he was stepping on water, creating ripples.

Ahead, a large tree appeared out of nowhere.

"No, this is not a simple introspection realm. This is my spiritual sea, and this tree is the seed of my soul." Nan Feihuang gently stroked the trunk of the tree. His inexplicable arrival here must be due to some influence on his soul.

At this moment, a dark, inky light shone down, turning Nan Feihuang's mysterious, deep blue spiritual sea into darkness.

Nan Feihuang looked up and saw a jet-black bead floating above the tree, seemingly trying to seize his soul seed.

"Hmph, as expected of a bound spirit, it actually has such methods. You're dreaming if you think you can steal my soul seed!" Nan Feihuang reached out, grabbed his halberd, and leaped up to slash at the bead.

Two beams of light, one black and one blue, clashed violently here.

Within this sea of ​​spirit, martial spirits can still be used, and are even more compatible.

"One-Handed Eighteen Thrustings!" Nan Feihuang used one of the moves from the One-Handed Eighteen Thrustings, the One-Handed Thrust, as the halberd spun and pierced in, completely disrupting the black energy of the Earthbound Spirit.

Next came a simple strike that dispersed some of the evil spirits.

Nan Feihuang discovered that his understanding of the halberd technique had deepened further within the sea of ​​his spirit.

Outside, Lan Xue watched her son's face turn from black to blue, and she was filled with worry. Even she didn't understand what had happened to Nan Feihuang.

But she couldn't interfere with the absorption of the spirit ring, so she could only watch helplessly from the outside.

"Huang'er, you'll be alright, Mother believes in you!"

Nan Feihuang was fine, of course. He was happily practicing his skills with that evil spirit. Being in the sea of ​​spirit, his mind was clear, making it easier for him to achieve the state of unity between body and weapon.

After Nan Feihuang had practiced all eighteen single-handed thrusts, he finally mastered this martial art.

Nan Feihuang had previously divided the proficiency of martial arts into five levels, from mastery to spiritualization.

To know means to learn, to enter the realm of beginners.

"Skilled" means proficient, a state of minor accomplishment. Nan Feihuang had reached this level after more than a year of arduous training.

"精" means to be proficient in, or to reach a state of intermediate mastery.

"God" refers to transcendence, the state of ultimate accomplishment.

"Transformation" means to enter into a state of perfect mastery, a state of divine skill.

Once Nan Feihuang masters the Eighteen Single-Handed Thrusting Techniques to the fourth level, he will be able to achieve twice the results with half the effort when practicing other halberd techniques in the future.

If he were to reach the fifth realm, he could learn and master any halberd technique in the world in no time.

Just like Xiang Yu, the Hegemon-King of Chu, and Lu Bu, the god of war, in those days.

Soon, the remnant soul of the earthbound spirit was destroyed by Nan Feihuang, and his spiritual sea returned to normal, but the bead floating in the sky did not disappear.

It simply changed from black to cyan.

"Ghost Howl Heavenly Pearl." Looking at the pearl, Nan Feihuang blurted out its name.

The reason he knew the name of the bead was because it had become a part of his body.

Upon hearing Nan Feihuang's call, the bead flew toward his face, merging into the posterolateral wall of his nasal bone and the medial wall of his eye socket.

This area is the lacrimal bone, a pair of thin bones, about the size and shape of a fingernail. It is the smallest bone in the face, about the size of this small bead. The lacrimal sac is located in the lacrimal fossa. It connects to the maxilla anteriorly and to the ethmoid bone, labyrinthine orbital plate posteriorly.

That's right, this Ghost Howling Heavenly Pearl is a soul bone, but not a skull.

In a normal skull, the tissue is usually absorbed by the forehead.

The soul bone attached to the tear bone is undoubtedly an external soul bone!

Nan Feihuang smiled slightly as he awoke from his sea of ​​consciousness, his surging, pure soul power emanating from his body.

He was surrounded by two soul rings, one yellow and one purple.

Just as Lan Xue was overjoyed, Nan Feihuang opened his eyes, and his left pupil was surprisingly blue.

"Heterochromatic eyes? Huang'er, you successfully absorbed your soul ring, but what about your eyes?" Lan Xue asked worriedly.

"Mother, don't worry, I'm fine. Near my left eye, there's a piece of tear bone called the Ghost Howling Heavenly Pearl. Because it's close to my left eye, when I use this tear bone, my left pupil will be affected by the light of the Ghost Howling Heavenly Pearl and turn blue-green," Nan Feihuang explained.

"Tears...tear bones? Could this be...an external soul bone?!" Lan Xue was overjoyed.

An external soul bone! This is a rare item that ranks second on the Soul Master's Dream List, second only to a 100,000-year soul ring and soul bone.

Moreover, external soul bones have two special characteristics: one is that once fully fused, they cannot be taken away, and even if someone wants to kill you to take the bone, they cannot get it out.

Another aspect is its evolutionary potential; it evolves as its owner's soul power increases. Therefore, the earlier one absorbs an external soul bone, the better. If the probability of an ordinary soul bone appearing from a soul beast is one in a thousand, then the probability of an external soul bone appearing is less than one in ten thousand.

Although Nan Feihuang's Ghost Howling Heavenly Pearl is only around a thousand years old, as his power increases, it will eventually evolve to a level exceeding a hundred thousand years of soul bone.

This external soul bone has three abilities.

Firstly, it enhances all attributes. This is a common ability of almost all soul bones. Even for spirit-type soul bones, the only difference is the focus of the enhancement. It mainly enhances mental power, and also slightly enhances physical strength and speed. This is especially noticeable with external soul bones. When using this soul bone, Nan Feihuang could feel his mental power increase by 30%, and other aspects by 10%. The increase is not significant at this time because the age is still too low. As the soul bone grows, it will naturally continue to become stronger.

Secondly, there is the Ghost Eye, which is Nan Feihuang's blue-green left eye that appeared earlier. It can see through the opponent's soul power, predict the opponent's moves, and observe the opponent's weaknesses, even their Achilles' heel.

Thirdly, there is the Soul Bone Skill, Soul Explosion, a mental attack that causes the opponent's soul to vibrate continuously, resulting in massive mental damage.
