Chapter 6 Absorbing Soul Bones
Looking at the scene before him, Tang Chuan's eyes widened, his heart trembled slightly, but he did not back down.
He felt no hostility, but rather an unprecedented tenderness and warmth, like being suddenly embraced tightly by his mother in a cold world.
It's an instinctive sense of security and belonging.
Blue silver grass leaves gently wrapped around his arms, shoulders, chest, and even touched a corner of his cheek—like a mother wiping away tears from her child's face.
"Mother."
Tang Chuan's lips trembled slightly, and his eyes unconsciously welled up with moisture.
Before transmigrating, he was an orphan. After transmigrating, he found himself in the Douluo Continent. All he knew was that his mother, Ah Yin, had sacrificed herself for Tang Hao, and he had never seen her.
Now, this scene left him somewhat dazed, even though he had never belonged to this world. However, because he had been an orphan in his previous life, the emotions he felt when he truly experienced maternal love were clearly overwhelming.
Reaching out to gently stroke the blue silver grass wrapped around him, feeling the tender touch like a mother's palm, Tang Chuan felt a slight tingling in his nose, and slowly spoke, his voice low but firm:
"Mother... I'll take you away from here right now."
"This place is dark and damp, never seeing sunlight, and is not a place for plant-type spirit beasts. What you need is sunlight, breeze, and rain, a world that can nourish life, not this kind of closed, tomb-like cave."
As he spoke, he slowly took out a small shovel from his pocket.
He immediately bent down and carefully inserted the shovel into a corner of the small mound, his technique extremely gentle, as if afraid of damaging even an inch of the Blue Silver Grass.
Just as Tang Chuan began to gently dig at the soil, the Blue Silver Grass that had been gently entwining around him suddenly trembled violently!
"Are you the older brother or the younger brother?"
"How is your father? It's been six years, why hasn't he come to see me?"
"By the way, why are you alone today?"
"..."
Upon seeing her son, Ah Yin was eager to ask him some questions, wanting to know everything about the father and son, but she couldn't make a sound because she was currently in plant form.
Similarly, Tang Chuan had no idea what Ah Yin was saying at that moment.
A moment later, he gently lifted Ah Yin, who was covered with a clump of original soil, and placed him in a small flowerpot that he had prepared beforehand, which he had brought with him before setting off.
After settling the flowerpot in place, Tang Chuan gently smoothed the soil around the edge with trembling hands and said softly, "Mother, rest for a bit, I'll take you out in a little while."
After speaking, he slowly stood up and glanced around the stone chamber.
The stone chamber remained silent, with nothing unusual except for the roar of the waterfall.
Just then, his gaze froze.
On the slightly abrupt rock face on the right, there is an extremely tiny protrusion. Although its surface is covered with moss, it appears slightly lighter in color under the sunlight, unlike the rest of the rock face.
"Found it." A glint of light flashed in Tang Chuan's eyes.
He took a few steps forward, stood in front of the stone wall, took a deep breath, and slammed his palm down on it!
"Bang!!"
As his palm struck, the stone wall trembled slightly.
The next instant, a mechanism clicked somewhere overhead.
boom--!
A hidden mechanism was activated, and a long, black box fell from a crack in the top of the stone wall, scattering dust and echoing throughout the stone chamber.
Looking at the scene before him, Tang Chuan's gaze became slightly intense.
Having read the original work thoroughly, he naturally knew that what was sealed inside the box was the soul bone left behind by Ah Yin after her sacrifice—the right leg bone of the 100,000-year-old Blue Silver Emperor.
Tang Chuan slowly stepped forward, knelt down, and carefully opened the box.
"Click."
A soft sound.
The next instant, an extremely rich life force surged towards us like a tidal wave!
The aura was as gentle as a spring breeze, yet as powerful as a vast ocean, instantly filling the entire stone chamber!
Immediately afterwards, blue-gold light burst forth from the box, like the dawn breaking, illuminating the four walls and even dyeing the mist from the waterfall with a layer of sacred golden light!
Inside the box lay a crystal-clear soul bone with a slight blue-gold pattern. It was as if it had been cast from glass, with the outline of its legs clearly visible. Blue-gold soul power veins flowed slowly across its surface, as if it truly possessed life.
"As long as I absorb it..."
"My shortcomings of having only level one innate soul power and slow cultivation speed will be completely overcome. In fact... my soul power level will increase significantly in a very short time."
Tang Chuan muttered to himself, his voice low, hoarse, and passionate.
In the Douluo Continent, soul bones are more precious than soul rings not only because they are difficult to obtain, but also because there are no soul power level restrictions for absorbing them. In other words, if you are lucky enough to obtain a 100,000-year-old soul bone while your soul power is at level one, you can absorb it successfully.
(P.S.: The above paragraph is from the original text of Douluo Continent I. When I was writing Douluo fanfiction before, many people asked why Xiao Xiao couldn't absorb the Dark Gold Terrorclaw Bear's soul bone in Douluo Continent II? The Dark Gold Terrorclaw Bear's palm bone is an external soul bone, and the absorption of external soul bones is limited.)
Without further hesitation, Tang Chuan stretched out his hands and carefully lifted the Blue Silver Emperor's right leg bone from the box. The moment his fingertips touched the soul bone, a cool yet surging energy spread throughout his body like mercury.
Immediately afterwards, he took a deep breath and slowly attached the soul bone to his right leg.
At the very moment of contact!
boom!!
A dazzling blue-gold light burst forth from the soul bone, instantly illuminating the entire stone chamber as bright as day!
A powerful surge of soul energy swept out, and even a seasoned Title Douluo would be horrified if he were in the cave at this moment.
Tang Chuan's body jolted violently, his eyes widened, and a blue-gold light shone deep within his pupils!
He felt a heat in his right leg, and his entire leg seemed to transform from a physical body into a pure, blazing, and surging blue-gold light.
The next second, a powerful life force surged in.
Tang Chuan's soul power surged wildly! It boiled! It exploded!
Meanwhile, deep within the Soul Hunter Forest.
The forest was shrouded in mist, deep and damp.
In the center of a clearing overgrown with vines, a long, serpentine spirit beast, its body a deep purple, lay quietly, its body covered in wounds and devoid of any life force.
Before it, a young man dressed in a blue outfit sat cross-legged, a white jade belt around his waist. His breathing was slightly disordered, and cold sweat seeped from his forehead.
That young man was none other than Tang San.
His eyes were closed, his breathing was rapid, and his soul power flowed continuously around his body.
Around his body, a pale yellow spirit ring appeared and disappeared, like ripples on water.
Not far from him, a middle-aged man lay on the ground, his clothes tattered, his face purple, and foaming at the mouth.
It was indeed the master, Yu Xiaogang.
The scene slowly zooms out.
A few dozen meters away from the open space, atop a towering ancient tree, stood a figure.
