"Puchi!"
Fresh blood splattered as the Sun Sacred Blade sliced through the Golden Crow's neck. A massive head soared into the sky, crashing heavily beside the distant Fusang Tree, its eyes filled with resentment and unwillingness. Simultaneously, a red Soul Ring floated from the corpse.
Xu Yang sat cross-legged beside the corpse, summoned his Sun Spirit, and began to draw in the Soul Ring, circulating the Great Sun Sutra to refine it. Immense Soul Power surged into his body, yet it stirred no waves. Before it could even begin to damage his meridians, it was absorbed by the Golden Elixir within Xu Yang's body, then transformed into even purer Soul Power and expelled, enhancing Xu Yang's cultivation.
The absorption process was simpler than imagined. Even the remnant soul of the ferocious beast Golden Crow was easily suppressed upon entering Xu Yang's sea of consciousness. Then, as the Golden Elixir transported it to the Upper Dantian, it was crushed into pure Spiritual Power and absorbed.
Chen Xin descended from the sky, seeing Xu Yang's relaxed expression, he knew his refinement was going smoothly. He turned to look at the Golden Crow's corpse. A 100,000-year Soul Beast was bound to drop a Soul Bone in addition to a Soul Ring.
This was also the first time he had seen a Soul Beast over 200,000 years old. He wanted to see the Soul Bone that this Golden Crow had condensed.
He slowly walked to the front of the Golden Crow's corpse, using his Spiritual Power to investigate. Soon, his eyes revealed a look of surprise: "There are actually two Soul Bones, truly a rare case!"
In the past, there had been cases of 100,000-year Soul Beasts dropping two Soul Bones. Rumor had it that the current Pope Bibi Dong had dropped left and right arm bones after hunting the Death Spider Emperor. Chen Xin never expected to encounter such a rare probability himself.
With a wave of his right hand, two streaks of Sword Qi shot out, tearing two huge openings in the Golden Crow's legs, revealing two complete crimson-gold leg bones inside. They were so complete that they even reached the base of the thighs, with faint streams of Fire flowing on them, extremely dazzling.
"Such perfect leg bones, so complete!" Chen Xin was very surprised in his heart. The quality of Soul Bones depended not only on the age but also on their completeness. The more complete the Soul Bone, the better the quality. These two leg bones, from thigh to heel, showed their extremely high quality.
Chen Xin was somewhat tempted, but only tempted. He absolutely had to leave these two Soul Bones for Xu Yang. This was not only because the attributes of the Soul Bones were compatible with Xu Yang, but also because Xu Yang had provided him with a method to break through to Limit Douluo. He always remembered this kindness.
Most importantly, he had long regarded Xu Yang as his junior, his grandson. If the grandfather didn't love his grandson, who would?!
Even though Soul Power impact and Spiritual impact had no effect on Xu Yang, the ferocious beast Golden Crow's cultivation of over 200,000 years would still take a long time to absorb.
A week later, the Sun Spirit above Xu Yang's head had become like a real Sun, with terrifying energy collisions taking place within it at all times. The crimson-gold flames on it danced like elves, as if cheering for their own evolution.
The speed of the blood-colored Soul Ring's rotation became slower and slower, and like other Soul Rings, it came to its exclusive position. Yellow, purple, black, black, black, black, red, seven Soul Rings quietly rested on Xu Yang's body.
"Level 72, why did it increase so little?! Or did some unforeseen event occur during the absorption process that I didn't notice!"
Feeling Xu Yang's Soul Power fluctuations, Chen Xin was very puzzled. Logically speaking, a Soul Ring of more than 100,000 years, although not as fast as a Soul Beast sacrifice, could still increase a Titled Douluo's Soul Power by at least three levels. What's more, this was a Golden Crow with a cultivation of more than 200,000 years. According to his speculation, it should have increased Xu Yang's Soul Power by at least five levels, after all, Xu Yang was only a Soul Saint.
Somewhat worried, Chen Xin quickly used his Spiritual Power to investigate Xu Yang's situation, but he couldn't see anything.
What exactly was the reason?!
He could now be sure that there was no problem with Xu Yang himself, but where did the huge Soul Power of the 200,000-year Golden Crow go?
Xu Yang had not told anyone about the Golden Elixir, so Chen Xin was not clear that there was no solid Soul Power in Xu Yang's body, only Golden Elixir Soul Power, which was frighteningly high in quality. Even if the ferocious beast Golden Crow had a cultivation of 200,000 years, the increase was not as terrifying as predicted.
Just as Chen Xin was puzzled, Xu Yang's eyes suddenly opened, the Seventh Soul Ring under him lit up, and the Sun Spirit above his head actually began to soften, quickly turning into a stream of water and directly merging into Xu Yang's body.
Instantly, Xu Yang's body was surrounded by Sun Light, and the whole person had completely merged with the Sun. This was Xu Yang's unique Spirit Avatar.
Xu Yang got up, his whole person directly suspended in mid-air, the crimson-gold Sun Light was contained in his body. At this moment, his hair had turned crimson-gold, and his eyes shone like two Suns, as if they could penetrate everything in the world.
He stretched out his right hand, and with a slight grip, a ball of crimson-gold Fire appeared in his hand, and constantly changed its shape with his thoughts, sometimes circling in the air like a swimming dragon, and sometimes flapping its wings like a Golden Crow.
And this was the control of the Sun True Fire, which he had previously found difficult to do without opening the Sun Golden Eyes and Flame Control Right Arm Bone. At this moment, he felt that he was a Sun, not only could he freely control the Sun True Fire, but he could also manipulate the scorching sunlight.
Xu Yang waved his hand again, and the originally scattered sunlight in the sky instantly gathered in his hand, turning into a ball of Light. With a gentle push, the ball of Light spewed out a ray, shooting into the sea. Instantly, countless seawater was evaporated, turning into water vapor rising up.
Not only that, his long-standing idea of using the Sun to wash the ground was finally realized. With a thought from Xu Yang, dozens of Suns appeared around him, suspended beside him, and then one by one they all shot towards the distant sea. Wherever they passed, everything was annihilated by the high temperature emitted by the Sun, even the sea level dropped, and the corpses of countless Sea Soul Beasts had not yet floated to the surface of the sea before they were burned into ashes by those Suns.
And this was just the most direct and simple usage. As long as he wanted, he could play those Suns in various ways.
Chen Xin looked at Xu Yang's movements, his mouth wide open, his eyes full of disbelief. Just the few attacks that Xu Yang had just experimented with, even he was not sure he could take them, especially the last dozens of Suns, he could feel that each one could take his life.
This was just a probing attack from Xu Yang, and it couldn't possibly be his full strength. And this means that Xu Yang already has the strength of a Limit Douluo.
But how is this possible? Xu Yang is clearly only a Soul Saint, even if his cultivation is different from other Soul Masters, it is impossible to defy the heavens to such an extent, to be able to become one of the continent's peaks as a Soul Saint.
