Chapter 67 Absorbing the Dragon King's Bloodline, Another Year
"I was a little confused at first. Why did you suddenly have an aura that felt the same as that golden soul bone?"
"Later I realized that the extra aura on your body was the bloodline of the Dragon King that you absorbed from the barrier left by the Water and Fire Dragon Kings."
"In that case, the origin of that soul bone is very clear."
Hearing the Snow Woman's speculation, Qin Mu couldn't help but open his mouth wide.
He originally thought it was just an ordinary 100,000-year-old soul bone, but he never expected that this 100,000-year-old soul bone was actually related to the legendary Dragon King!
This is the world of Dou 1!
While these people couldn't even understand soul bones, he possessed a 100,000-year-old Dragon King soul bone and a trace of Dragon King bloodline!
If he could successfully refine that trace of the Dragon King's bloodline, wouldn't his strength increase by a significant margin?
As if she could see through Qin Mu's thoughts, Xue Nu immediately poured cold water on him.
"Don't expect this trace of Dragon King bloodline to bring you much of a boost in strength."
"First of all, you are, after all, a human body. Even if you can absorb the Dragon King's bloodline temporarily, it will only be a temporary absorption of a portion, not a complete absorption."
"If you want to fully absorb it, you may need to break through about two more rings of strength."
Upon hearing this, Qin Mu was taken aback.
Breaking through two more rings?
His strength has now reached level 40. If he breaks through two more rings, he will reach level 60.
In other words, he could only absorb that soul bone when he reached the level of a six-ring Soul Emperor.
Qin Mu licked his lips, his gaze undeniably fiery.
However, there's still a long time before we reach the sixth ring. Instead of thinking so far ahead, we should focus on improving our skills now.
"I understand, thank you, Xue Nu."
"It's nothing, just helping each other out."
Nodding to the Snow Maiden, Qin Mu then sat down next to the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Eyes and began to try to refine the trace of Dragon King bloodline within his body.
The subsequent series of changes far exceeded Qin Mu's expectations.
Originally, according to his plan, he took the Octagonal Mystic Ice Grass and the Fiery Apricot Blossom only because he hoped to stay in the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Eyes for a longer period of time.
Furthermore, he may travel to the far north with the Snow Woman. If he cannot eliminate the adverse effects of the far north, it will be a troublesome matter for him.
Moreover, tempering the body with ice and fire can enhance one's physical strength.
Having undergone the tempering of ice and fire, Qin Mu's body will have a certain degree of immunity to the influence of some external elements.
This can be described as killing two birds with one stone.
Unexpectedly, this led to him obtaining a trace of the Dragon King's bloodline, which remained deep within the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Eyes, from the Water and Fire Dragon Kings.
Furthermore, it also retains a lot of pure energy within its body.
Although this energy was enormous, it seemed that due to the influence of that trace of the Dragon King's bloodline, it did not run rampant within Qin Mu's body.
This is why Qin Mu dared to do other things without refining all of this energy.
Now, Qin Mu began to try to absorb that trace of the Dragon King's bloodline. The residual energy in his body was also absorbed by the Dragon King's bloodline, and thus continuously transformed into Qin Mu's soul power.
In an instant, Qin Mu's soul power was increasing at a visible rate.
Seeing that Qin Mu's condition was gradually stabilizing, Ling Yuan looked at Xue Nu beside her, hesitated for a moment, and then slowly spoke.
Thank you.
Seeing Ling Yuan's expression, Xue Nu naturally knew that Ling Yuan was thanking her for helping her improve her strength. She turned her head slightly and chuckled softly.
"It's just mutual help, no need to thank me."
The Snow Woman's gaze returned to Qin Mu. "Besides, I also like this child very much."
"You're the same, right!"
Looking at the quirky and clever Snow Woman in front of her, Ling Yuan's lips also curled into a smile.
"Of course, I like Little Qin Mu the most!"
"Hehe, I knew it."
The Snow Woman chuckled, having guessed correctly, and stretched. "The human world isn't that full of scheming and backstabbing!"
Ling Yuan was slightly taken aback upon hearing Xue Nu's words.
Is there no backstabbing or infighting?
Ling Yuan couldn't help but think of the first time she and Qin Mu were at the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Eyes. Back then, she was taught a harsh lesson by Qin Mu!
Ling Yuan's lips twitched involuntarily.
No, I need to find a chance to let Little Qin Mu trick Xue Nu too.
She must also experience the wickedness of humanity!
Spring goes and autumn comes, and another year has passed in the blink of an eye.
After a year of absorption, Qin Mu finally integrated this trace of Dragon King bloodline into his body.
However, this is only temporary. If you want this drop of Dragon King bloodline to be completely integrated into your body, it will take a long time to absorb it.
That year, Qin Mu also completely transformed all the energy remaining in his body into soul power.
Qin Mu himself doesn't know what level his soul power has reached yet; he will only be able to find out after he obtains his fourth soul ring.
However, such rapid improvement was not all good news for Qin Mu.
Because his strength had expanded too rapidly, Qin Mu could clearly sense that his ability to condense soul power was far inferior to what it used to be.
After several tests, Qin Mu immediately realized that this was because his soul power had increased rapidly, but his control and application of soul power had not kept up, which led to this result.
Slowly extending his hand, Qin Mu manipulated his soul power to condense in his hand, and before long, it gradually condensed into a Clear Sky Hammer with a somewhat fluctuating shape.
"It's okay. As long as I can use my soul power more often in the future and gradually master it, I should be able to regain my previous state."
Looking at the inferior Clear Sky Hammer he had condensed with his soul power, Qin Mu couldn't help but sigh.
"Has it all been absorbed?"
The Snow Maiden appeared beside Qin Mu at some point, and upon sensing the trace of Dragon King bloodline within him, she nodded repeatedly.
"Not bad, you've absorbed the Dragon King's bloodline in just one year."
"I thought it would take you more than two years just for the absorption process!"
Qin Mu gave a wry smile. Two years? Wouldn't that mean he had completely neglected his cultivation?
At this moment, Ling Yuan also walked over, her eyes filled with amazement as she looked at Qin Mu.
"As expected, the Snow Maiden was right. I can sense that your physical strength is now stronger than some five-ring Soul Kings!"
"With this fourth spirit ring, you should be able to absorb a spirit beast that is nearly 15,000 years old, right?"
"Fifteen thousand years?"
Hearing Ling Yuan's words, Qin Mu's lips curled into a strange smile.
Fifteen thousand years is only three thousand years longer than an ordinary Soul King, which is not enough for Qin Mu.
Having consumed the Star Anise Ice Grass, his spiritual strength was already far superior to that of ordinary Soul Kings.
The spiritual impact generated by the ten-thousand-year soul ring was naturally not a problem for Qin Mu.
Now, Qin Mu's body has been tempered by two kinds of Immortal Herbs through ice and fire, and he has also absorbed a trace of the Dragon King's bloodline.
Qin Mu's physical strength is probably even more terrifying than some sixth-ring Soul Emperors.
The fourth spirit ring he is looking for this time must be from a spirit beast that is at least 30,000 years old!
