Chapter 261 The Third Ring of the Soul-Breaking Spear, the 100,000-Year-Old Dark Gold Terrorclaw Bear.
"Thank you, Elder Xuan. Then I'll begin." Wu Xuan said, activating the God-Sealing Platform in his hand. With a flash of pale yellow light, the 100,000-year-old Dark Gold Terrorclaw Bear sealed within appeared in their sight.
This 100,000-year-old Dark Gold Terrorclaw Bear had been severely injured by Elder Xuan, but even so, it was still clinging to life.
Originally, when Wu Xuan first captured this 100,000-year-old Dark Gold Terrorclaw Bear, his plan wasn't the third ring of the Soul-Breaking Spear, but rather the seventh ring, because only a super soul beast like the Dark Gold Terrorclaw Bear could unleash the full power of its True Form Descent.
Back then, with a Dark Gold Terrorclaw Bear assisting him in battle, he couldn't even imagine how much his combat power would increase.
But now Wu Xuan had given up on that. To quickly improve his strength, adding a soul ring to his second martial soul was definitely the best option. Besides this, Wu Xuan had another motive: he wanted to see if any deities in the God Realm would pay attention to him, given the immense commotion he had created half a year ago.
Wu Xuan nodded slightly to Elder Xuan, then slowly approached the 100,000-year-old Dark Gold Terrorclaw Bear. His right hand extended, and the Soul-Breaking Spear, its shaft reflecting a brilliant silver light, appeared in his grasp.
With a swift and precise thrust, the spear pierced the bear's skull. Wu Xuan twisted it forcefully, and the clanging sound of shattering bones rang out. The 100,000-year-old Dark Gold Terrorclaw Bear, barely clinging to life, didn't even have time to feel pain before it died. Immediately afterward, a blood-red 100,000-year-old soul ring quietly rose.
Even before it began to fuse, the immense energy it contained was enough to shock anyone.
Unlike the 100,000-year-old Crimson Dragon from half a year ago, the 100,000-year-old Dark Gold Terrorclaw Bear spirit ring presented to everyone now had a faint yellow halo around it, which was the unique color of the spirit ring produced by a super spirit beast.
Such a domineering 100,000-year soul ring is no easy feat even for many level 90 Title Douluos. The soul shock is secondary; the main issue is the unparalleled, ferocious soul power—enough to tear apart any soul master's meridians.
Elder Xuan reached out and touched the 100,000-year Dark Gold Terrorclaw Bear's corpse. Unsurprisingly, a 100,000-year soul bone, shrouded in golden light, burst forth.
"Right arm soul bone! It's considered a top-tier soul bone for the Dark Gold Terrorclaw Bear, second only to the palm bone. Are you planning to use the bone first, then the soul bone, or what?" Elder Xuan took a swig of wine and handed the soul bone to Wu Xuan.
Wu Xuan didn't take the soul bone from Elder Xuan, saying, "Elder Xuan, let's leave this soul bone for Xiao Xiao. She needs it more than I do right now."
"What? Are you sure? This is a 100,000-year soul bone!" Elder Xuan felt like he'd misheard.
"That's right, this one spirit ring is enough for me. The Dark Gold Terrorclaw Bear spirit bone isn't suitable for me; its boost to my strength is negligible." Wu Xuan's eyes were calm as he handed the spirit bone to Elder Xuan and slowly walked to the 100,000-year Dark Gold Terrorclaw Bear spirit ring.
"Haha, then I'll thank you on Xiao Xiao's behalf." Elder Xuan smiled sincerely as he looked at Wu Xuan, who was about to absorb the spirit ring. To be so humble even with a 100,000-year spirit bone—such magnanimity was truly rare.
As the Yuanzhuan spirit power drew upon the 100,000-year spirit ring, Wu Xuan felt an indescribable pressure suddenly assail him. Then, a violent surge of spirit power rushed into his meridians like a madman. The terrifying impact of the spirit power was hysterical, causing Wu Xuan's body to throb with intense pain.
At this moment, Wu Xuan's meridians were twisted like a rope, almost knotted, yet he remained calm because his meridians showed no signs of breaking.
Wu Xuan took a deep breath, forcibly suppressing the tyranny of the Dark Gold Terror Claw Bear's remnant soul within his spiritual sea, and began frantically activating the Enlightenment Sutra to accept the terrifying soul power surging into his body, gradually assimilating and absorbing it, circulating it along his meridians.
This process was extremely painful; Wu Xuan's bones and muscles began to ache and throb, and even his skin oozed countless tiny beads of blood. But Wu Xuan's expression remained calm throughout, showing no significant change. How could he resist Tang Buddha's schemes if he couldn't even endure this pain? How could he overthrow Tang Buddha if he couldn't even handle the schemes?
Elder Xuan had been cautiously observing Wu Xuan, and half an hour passed in the blink of an eye. "He's entered the Nascent Soul stage," Elder Xuan said with a sigh of relief. At the same time, he sincerely admired Wu Xuan's composure. His previous state was clearly one where his body was nearing its limit; the pain he endured under such circumstances was unimaginable. Yet, Wu Xuan showed no reaction whatsoever.
Suddenly, Wu Xuan felt his spiritual power tremble violently, and in the next instant, it seemed as if his spiritual power had left his body.
"It's here!" Wu Xuan exclaimed excitedly. He had felt this same sensation when he absorbed the 100,000-year-old Crimson Dragon Soul Ring.
Then, in Wu Xuan's perception, he was surprised to discover that this time, it wasn't just his spiritual power that had left his body, but his pure soul.
The human soul is extremely fragile; once it leaves the body, it continuously dissipates. At this moment, after discovering his soul had left his body, Wu Xuan was also surprised to find that a faint silver halo surrounded his soul. Protected by this silver halo, his entire soul became very stable, showing no signs of dissipation.
With his soul suspended in the air, Wu Xuan clearly saw that he was still absorbing the soul ring. The pain from absorbing the soul ring had completely disappeared, and his soul power and spiritual power seemed to be sublimating. Even from the air, Wu Xuan could clearly feel it.
"Could I have been chosen by some god?"
Wu Xuan murmured to Tianmeng and Bingdi, who were soundly asleep and unresponsive in his spiritual sea, as he felt the changes in his soul.
Suddenly, a strange force descended from the distant sky, pulling Wu Xuan's soul and instantly lifting him into the air.
Suddenly, a gentle aura enveloped his soul. This aura seemed to contain a vast and pure energy fluctuation. When it appeared, Wu Xuan felt an extremely comfortable sensation spread throughout his soul, as if his soul were soaking in warm spring water.
Wu Xuan's expression turned serious. He feigned resistance for a moment, then allowed the strange force to carry his soul upwards.
"Hmm, such a temperament, indeed a promising talent." A calm and peaceful voice rang out, and Wu Xuan felt everything his soul sensed spin around him. An invisible force seemed to amplify the void, and in an instant, the surroundings shimmered with silver light.
It felt like only a moment had passed, yet also like an eternity. Suddenly, everything around him became clear.
