Chapter 332: Chapter 329.
Chapter 329.
In the past ten days, the four soul beasts had willingly accepted Qing Huang'er as their eldest sister after getting to know her. It was not surprising, given the weakened state of Boss Feng.
The Golden Lotus of Boss Feng had a magical ability to stimulate the potential of soul beasts, causing them to evolve and even mutate in rare cases. The effects were very remarkable. After a few months of practice with Wang Feng, noticeable results were evident.
Qing Huang'er's special aura could also stimulate the soul beasts' potential, though not as intensely as Golden Lotus. However, given the long lifespan of soul beasts, staying with her for a year or two would certainly bring about significant changes. Over a longer period—five or ten years—their potential might reach its limit, leading to further evolution and mutation.
Moreover, Qing Huang'er herself was incredibly powerful, not just good for enhancement, that was the most impressive part. Wang Feng, upon learning of Qing Huang'er's special abilities, was not overly surprised. After Qing Huang'er evolved into a hundred-thousand-year soul beast, a special domain would be formed, likely further enhancing her abilities. Though far behind Golden Lotus miraculous energy, it was impressive enough on its own.
Thus, Wang Feng's actions were understood by the four soul beasts.
"Boss Feng," Bingjira suddenly interjected, dragging a string of glowing objects behind him. "When you were absorbing the soul ring, Thunder Spirit Fox and I reduced the Mountain and Sea Ice Dragon Whale's body to ashes... and found this. It should be a soul bone. You might need it!"
Soul bone!!–
Wang Feng was taken aback. He realized that the Mountain and Sea Ice Dragon Whale had been a soul beast for nearly a hundred thousand years, making it almost certain to drop a soul bone.
"It's a pity that it's only a ninety-thousand-year old soul bone," Wang Feng thought to himself.
The bone was a torso soul bone, specifically the sternum, with the spine attached to its back, radiating an ice-blue luster. A hundred-thousand-year soul bone would have one more soul ability and additional bonuses, but Wang Feng suddenly had a shocking thought.
He stared blankly at the Qiankun Cauldron in his hand.
"Boss Feng, aren't you going to absorb this soul bone?" the crocodile asked in confusion seeing Wang Feng lamenting about something.
Wang Feng took a deep breath and focused his soul power, enlarging the Qiankun Cauldron once again.
"Bingjira, throw this soul bone in the cauldron," Wang Feng said slowly.
Bingjira was puzzled but complied, tossing the torso soul bone into the Qiankun Cauldron.
"Boss Feng, what are you planning to do?" Thunder Spirit Fox asked curiously.
Wang Feng smiled faintly. "You'll find out soon enough."
While speaking, Wang Feng retrieved another torso soul bone from the soul guide—a torso soul bone from the Blood Demon Beetle. Since this bone was only sixty thousand years old, Wang Feng had never considered using it until now.
"The time to witness the miracle has arrived!" Wang Feng's eyes gleamed with excitement as he tossed this torso soul bone into the Qiankun Cauldron too.
"Let's see if Qiankun Cauldron can do what I think it can!"
In ancient mythology, the Qiankun Cauldron was said to possess many functions and could even enhance the quality of treasures and magical items. Since this Qiankun Cauldron was transformed as his martial soul, Wang Feng wondered if it also retained such abilities. He didn't believe that refining alone could improve the quality, so he decided to throw in another torso soul bone to test if their functions could integrate and form a true hundred-thousand-year soul bone.
"Refine!" With a thought, the Qiankun Cauldron began to spin rapidly, and the patterns on its surface floated swiftly. Light erupted from the Qiankun Cauldron.
Wang Feng was genuinely nervous. It was a familiar feeling, reminiscent of the suspense he'd felt when making multiple consecutive cacha draws in mobile games during his previous life. Whether the Qiankun Cauldron would succeed in this fusion depended entirely on its performance. He hoped it wouldn't disappoint. If it failed to integrate the soul bones, it would be a major setback.
The two soul bones were particularly significant. The Mountain and Sea Ice Dragon Whale's soul bone, in particular, was extremely rare and almost impossible to find again. The four soul beasts watched in awe, having never witnessed anything like this.
Fusion of two soul bones? How could that even be possible?
For days, Wang Feng barely blinked. The soul power within him surged wildly, but with the aid of the –soul crystal's energy, he continued the refinement and fusion process. Finally, on the tenth day, the Qiankun Cauldron ceased its operation.
A crimson light shone from within the cauldron. Red symbolized a hundred thousand years, and while the soul bone was not quite the same, Wang Feng could sense that a powerful soul bone had emerged from the Qiankun Cauldron.
"It worked!" Wang Feng exclaimed with a laugh. He felt a surge of genuine excitement, reminiscent of the joy of achieving something extraordinary in a game. It was a similar thrill to that of pulling a super rare item.
With a thought, the soul bone from the Qiankun Cauldron materialized before Wang Feng. It was another torso soul bone, now glowing with a purple-red light and resembling a breastplate.
"A hundred thousand-year soul bone..." The crocodile rubbed his eyes, astonished. "The difference between ninety thousand years and a hundred thousand years is immense. How is this even possible?"
The soul beasts were no strangers to soul bones, but witnessing this fusion left them stunned. How could two soul bones merge and become stronger in the process? The four soul beasts gazed at the Qiankun Cauldron with disbelief. How could a human's martial soul be so powerful? Boss Feng is really incredible!
Wang Feng examined the soul bone, a mix of purple and red, radiating a menacing light. "The fusion of the Blood Demon Beetle and the Mountain and Sea Ice Dragon Whale... What should this be called? The Blood-Devouring Ice Dragon Whale torso soul bone? It's a bit redundant but it is what it is."
He caressed the soul bone, feeling a surge of excitement. It was unexpected that the Qiankun Cauldron possessed such an ability. It meant that in the future, he could potentially fuse various soul bones, and perhaps even other types of treasures.
The process had been time-consuming and had drained a significant amount of soul power, likely due to the complexity of creating a hundred-thousand-year soul bone. Yet, the more Wang Feng thought about it, the more he appreciated the Qiankun Cauldron's power and functions. While it didn't seem to enhance his fighting capabilities directly, it significantly benefited him more than that and the soul beasts around him.
"By the way, I almost forgot to try out the fifth soul ability," Wang Feng realized. After spending ten days absorbing soul rings and another ten days fusing soul bones, he had neglected to test his fifth soul ability.
What powers might it hold?
"You guys, stand back. I'm going to test the fifth soul ability!" Wang Feng focused his energy, channeling it into the Qiankun Cauldron.
As Wang Feng concentrated, he felt his soul power being rapidly drained. The Qiankun Cauldron started spinning at extremely fast speed, emitting a fierce bronze light that enveloped everyone. Almost instantly, Wang Feng felt his soul power deplete completely.
