Chapter 729: Mountain Dragon King Torso Bone (1/2)

He transmitted his will into the earth, and the entire dragon tomb tremored slightly. His eyes were closed so he couldn't see anything, but there were dense bursts of light erupting from the ground all around him. There were lights of all types of different colors, and in the end, they combined as one to form a rainbow halo that silently revolved around his body.

A gentle feeling of intimacy surrounded his entire body, and he felt as if he could hear the cries of countless dragons, all of which were filled with joy and elation rather than grief and indignation.

In the end, this rainbow light converged to form a water-droplet-shaped crystal that contained nine different colors within. The crystal drifted down onto Tang Wulin's right wrist, and a thin nine-colored chain appeared, strapping the crystal to his wrist.

All of a sudden, Tang Wulin's body shuddered, and he felt as if his spiritual world had been smashed open! His spiritual power, which had been stagnant for a long time, suddenly began to increase at a rapid rate.

This process didn't last a very long time, but Tang Wulin was suddenly struck by the feeling that his horizons had broadened. Even though he still had his eyes closed, he could sense everything around him with brilliant clarity.

He could sense that all of the bones in his torso, including his spine, his b.r.e.a.s.tbone, and his ribs, were all glowing with a dazzling light. It was as if a crystalline suit of armor had been fitted onto those bones, filling him with an indescribable sense of power.

This was a torso bone!

The Mountain Dragon King had given him a torso bone.

Among the soul bones that Soul Masters could fuse into their bodies, there were a few types that were the most valuable.

Without taking into consideration the ages of the soul bones, head bones, torso bones, and external soul bones were the rarest and also the most precious.

External soul bones were extremely valuable as they could exist independently outside of the six most common types of soul bones, and they were exceedingly rare.

In contrast, head bones and torso bones brought the greatest enhancements to Soul Masters, and they were also the most difficult to obtain.

Among the descendants of the Dragon God, the Mountain Dragon King possessed the most powerful defensive prowess, so its torso bone was undoubtedly one of the most exceptional torso bones anyone could hope to obtain. With the addition of this torso bone, Tang Wulin's defensive prowess would be elevated to a whole new level. This could even make it a lot easier for him to withstand the influxes of energy from breaking Golden Dragon King seals in the future.

Aside from sensing the fact that he'd obtained a new soul bone, Tang Wulin continued to extend his consciousness outward, and everything around him appeared in his mind with brilliant clarity, even though his eyes remained firmly shut.

This indicated that his spiritual power seemed to have ascended to a new level.

500 points of spiritual power were required to reach the Spirit Sea realm, and that was already an extremely important hurdle for the vast majority of Soul Masters as it determined whether they'd be able to become high-level Soul Masters. Without sufficient spiritual power, one would find themselves unable to fuse powerful soul bones into their bodies.

Tang Wulin had already reached the Spirit Sea realm, but at this moment, he felt as if he'd make a breakthrough to a higher realm.

He felt as if his spirit had become an abyssal prison. If his spirit were the world, then the upper boundary would be heaven while the lower boundary would be hell! This was the Spirit Abyss realm, the realm that was commonly referred to as the limit for a normal human's spiritual power!

Tang Wulin only knew of two other Soul Masters around the same age as him whose spiritual powers had reached the Spirit Abyss realm; one of them was Gu Yue, while the other one was Dai Yun'er, who possessed a spirit attribute martial soul.

Such immense spiritual power was the mandatory foundation to acquire a legendary soul spirit. With this foundation, one would be able to fuse with any level of spirit souls; even orange and red ones. However, each person can only fuse with one orange and one red soul spirit, and after fusing with one of those two types of soul spirits, one's capacity to fuse with other soul spirits would revert back to that of a being with spiritual power at the Spirit Sea realm. If no red or orange soul spirits had been fused with, then the upper limit for the number of soul spirits of other levels that could be fused with was five. Generally speaking, the Spirit Abyss realm was the limit of human spiritual power. At the same, after reaching that realm, Soul Masters would no longer be limited by their spiritual power as it would be sufficient to support them until they progressed to become Titled Doulos.

Never would Tang Wulin have thought that he'd make such a significant breakthrough in his spiritual power here in this Dragon Valley. This was a form of reciprocation from all of the dragon skeletons!

After that, Tang Wulin's consciousness gradually faded, and he entered a deep meditative state again. He required time both to completely fuse with the Mountain Dragon King's torso bone, as well as to adjust to his new level of spiritual power, which had reached the Spirit Abyss realm.

500 points of spiritual power were required to reach the Spirit Sea realm, and that number spiked sharply to 5,000 for the Spirit Abyss realm. After reaching the Spirit Abyss realm, it was virtually guaranteed that he'd be able to become a Titled Douluo in the future unless something were to happen to his body. But was Tang Wulin's body ever of any concern? The answer to that was, of course, no.
