Chapter 115: I really don't have a Spirit Bone!
🕑 Added 2024-03-30 16:07:04 +0000 UTCHuyan Zhen's face turned ugly.
Looking at the expressions of Su Wen and Dugu Bo.
He didn't see any dissatisfaction from Dugu Bo towards Su Wen's face. Even from Dugu Bo's reaction, it seemed to be a protective attitude towards Su Wen.
What exactly is the relationship between Su Wen and Dugu Bo?
Huyan Zhen felt as uncomfortable as if he had eaten shit at the moment.
"The Elephant Armored Clan is one of the seven major clans on the Continent. Do you mean to say there's only one five-thousand-year-old Spirit Bone?" Dugu Bo mocked.
Huyan Zhen felt uneasy.
A head Spirit Bone!
A head Spirit Bone!
Can't you hear it?
Not to mention this is the head spirit bone he prepared for Huyan Li!
Among the six types of Spirit Bone, the head Spirit Bone is the most precious.
These two individuals obviously chose to hear selectively.
Although the Elephant Armored Clan ranks among the seven major clans, it is not at the bottom, but rather the sixth-ranked major clan, yet it still lacks the depth compared to the top three clans.
Among the seven major clans on the Continent, the top three have separate appellations, indicating their long-standing heritage and unshakeable status.
The rest of these clans, including the Elephant Armored Clan, mostly do not have a particularly long lineage.
Within the Elephant Armored Clan, Spirit Bones do exist, but they are not something that can be casually used. Among them, there are only three ten-thousand-year-old Spirit Bones, one of which Huyan Zhen did not absorb due to duplication issues and kept it in the clan's treasure vault, while the other two are on Huyan Zhen himself.
Apart from the ten-thousand-year-old Spirit Bones, this five-thousand-year-old head Spirit Bone is considered the most valuable one overall.
"Hmm?" Dugu Bo observed Huyan Zhen's hesitant demeanor and roughly assessed the Elephant Armored Clan's situation.
"Huyan Zhen, you should also understand the significance of Xiaowen's second ring. I'm already giving you face by only asking for two ten-thousand-year-old Spirit Bones," he stated.
Huyan Zhen remained silent.
"There's only one ten-thousand-year-old Spirit Bone in the Elephant Armored Clan," he gritted his teeth.
"Oh? Then bring forth the five-thousand-year-old Spirit Bone you just mentioned as well. To make up for the shortfall, add another thousand-year-old Spirit Bone," Dugu Bo said casually.
As he spoke, he secretly harbored murderous intentions towards Huyan Zhen, making Huyan Zhen feel a deadly threat.
Huyan Zhen gritted his teeth and agreed to Dugu Bo's solution.
"Alright, I'm willing to offer three Spirit Bones to settle this grudge, but the Spirit Bones are kept within the clan, I don't carry them on me."
"No problem, I'll personally accompany you," Dugu Bo waved his hand, indicating that it wasn't an issue.
As Su Wen returned to the team, Dugu Bo followed Huyan Zhen to the Elephant Armored Clan to retrieve the Spirit Bones.
...
Within the Elephant Armored Clan,
handing over the three Spirit Bones to Dugu Bo made Huyan Zhen's heart bleed.
The value of the head Spirit Bone was no less than that of the ten-thousand-year-old Spirit Bones.
Calculating it, the Elephant Armored Clan essentially possessed four ten-thousand-year-old Spirit Bones, but now they had lost two of them.
Nearly half of the clan's heritage had vanished in an instant.
"Well, Huyan Zhen, I hope the news about Su Wen having Spirit Bones won't spread, and no one will lay a hand on him in the future. Otherwise, I will come back to your Elephant Armored Clan to demand an explanation," Dugu Bo left these words before departing, leaving Huyan Zhen once again frustrated and angry.
"Roar!"
Huyan Zhen's Martial Spirit manifested, and the massive Diamond Mammoth stomped in place, causing the ground to shake and nearby buildings to tremble.
As Su Wen returned to the team, he was called out by Dugu Bo alone at night.
"You lad, don't go out to record any terrain during this time," Dugu Bo advised.
Although he had issued a warning to Huyan Zhen earlier, there's only one life to live. Even if Dugu Bo were to poison all the descendants of the Elephant Armored Clan, it wouldn't bring him back if Su Wen were to die.
Su Wen nodded, indicating he understood the pros and cons.
"Take a look at these three Spirit Bones and see if you need any," Dugu Bo said, taking out three Spirit Bones for Su Wen to choose from.
Su Wen shook his head and said, "Grandpa Dugu, you better keep these Spirit Bones for yourself."
Dugu Bo looked at Su Wen with surprise.
"But here, there's a ten-thousand-year-old Spirit Bone and a head Spirit Bone that's worth as much as a ten-thousand-year-old Spirit Bone."
Su Wen nodded, indicating that he hadn't misjudged.
"Could it be that the two Spirit Bones you already have are the head Spirit Bone and the right leg bone?" Dugu Bo suspected.
The ten-thousand-year-old Spirit Bone in his hand was indeed the right leg bone.
Now that Su Wen showed no interest in these three Spirit Bones, the most likely reason for rejecting the two most enticing ones was that Su Wen already had Spirit Bones in those two parts.
Su Wen twitched his mouth.
This...
Misunderstandings arise like this.
Coincidences are just too disgusting.
"Grandpa Dugu, I don't have any Spirit Bones," he explained helplessly. "I also don't plan to fuse with Spirit Bones right now."
Dugu Bo ignored the first half of Su Wen's sentence, focusing on the latter half.
"Why, Spirit Bones are hard to come by. Even I dare not say I could gather a full set of Spirit Bones. Wouldn't it be an opportunity to absorb them when you have the chance?" Dugu Bo wanted to hear Su Wen's thoughts.
As a Titled Douluo, Dugu Bo naturally didn't hold this view, but among many Titled Douluos and Spirit Masters in the Spirit Master world, this perspective was common.
Only forces with profound backgrounds like the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan and Titled Douluos had the qualification to select Spirit Bones.
"Spirit Bones are precious, but they have drawbacks compared to Spirit Rings."
"Oh?" It was the first time Dugu Bo had heard that Spirit Bones had drawbacks compared to Spirit Rings. He looked at Su Wen with curiosity.
"Spirit Rings can be chosen for compatibility, but Spirit Bones lack this. If a Spirit Master absorbs multiple Spirit Bones, as long as they are not of the same origin, they will experience rejection."
"While Spirit Rings pose no danger as long as there are no fundamental conflicts, conflicts between multiple Spirit Bones absorbed by a Spirit Master may be unbearable and lead to their demise."
Su Wen modestly said, "I dare not say how confident I am in gathering a complete set of ten-thousand-year-old Spirit Bones for my whole body, but acquiring three or four ten-thousand-year-old Spirit Bones is always possible, and having three or even four is when conflicts between Spirit Bones start to manifest."
For a Spirit Master, absorbing around four Spirit Bones would entail enduring conflicts between them.
And with these four Spirit Bones, should one absorb four ten-thousand-year-old Spirit Bones or seize any opportunity, even a thousand-year-old one?
Su Wen stated that if he had the chance to obtain four ten-thousand-year-old Spirit Bones, he would naturally choose the former option.
Dugu Bo seemed pensive.
"'his lad, could it be that both of the Spirit Bones he has are ten-thousand-year-old ones? His luck is too good?'
He remembered that the last two ten-thousand-year-old Mirror Image Beasts they hunted didn't yield any Spirit Bones.
How did Su Wen obtain the Spirit Bones?
As for the head Spirit Bone, Dugu Bo tentatively believed it dropped when Su Wen absorbed the thousand-year-old Spirit Ring during his second ring advancement years ago.
But what about the other right leg bone?
'Xiao Zhan? Or Huo Tianyang?'
Dugu Bo halted his thoughts, choosing not to delve deeper.
In the end, Su Wen still took away two non-ten-thousand-year-old Spirit Bones, but he didn't absorb them on the spot.
"A three-thousand-year-old Phantom Light Beast Spirit Bone, and a five-thousand-year-old Giant Water Rhinoceros limb Spirit Bone."
Taking both Spirit Bones, Su Wen had other plans for them.

He can experiment with them, if I remember right spirit bones are the spirit best condensed essence or core (and in the later parts of douluo they Figured how to make artificial spirit bones, the mc can researsh spirit bones and how when they merge with the spirit Master they turn into Energy form, in return he can use the spirit bone Energy to strengthen his martial soul or any spirit bones he have or Figure how to use their spirit skill's, or he can make experiment's till he figures how to condense his own spirit bones, because if his ambition of the heavenly book martial spirit is achieved there won't be any worthy spirit bones for him expect external spirit bones).
