The two looked at the shriveled bat corpse, but one of the seven huge heads was still bulging.
Then the two smiled at each other. Hu Liena took out her commonly used dagger from her soul guide and cut off the bulging head in an instant. A red light rose into the eyes and it turned out to be a very complete skull, which slowly fell into Hu Liena's hands.
Hu Liena's eyes lit up and she said to Yun Yi, "Fortunately you didn't attack the head of this soul beast. Such a complete skull is rare even in the palace."
"Is this difficult?" Yun Yi asked with some doubt.
Hu Liena poked Yun Yi's head and said with a smug look on her face, "I can tell at a glance that you haven't studied the theoretical knowledge well. The output of soul bones is extremely random. The higher the level of the soul beast, the higher the probability of soul bones exploding. However, high-level soul beasts are often difficult to kill with one blow. In a long battle, the soul bones hidden in the soul beast's body are often damaged by the huge energy impact. Soul masters often kill soul beasts by targeting the vital parts, so it is quite rare for the head soul bone and torso bone to have such integrity. The more complete the soul bone, the better the soul bone skills it possesses. The integrity of this soul bone is the same as the 100,000-year soul bone obtained from the sacrifice, without any damage at all."
"It sounds like the same equipment as ordinary soldiers." Yun Yi chuckled.
"That's right. Soul bones can be said to be the equipment of soul masters, and the integrity of soul bones is related to the possibility of the emergence of soul bone fusion skills." Hu Liena explained to Yun Yi.
"Soul bone fusion technique?" Yun Yi whispered. It seemed that it was only mentioned briefly in the original book. Because the conditions for its realization were too harsh, it was mentioned less frequently.
"Well, the teacher said that if the soul bones of a soul master are more complete, the soul bones can be connected to the armor of various parts of the soldier's body, forming soul bone fusion skills. Not only will new skills appear, but the skills of the soul bones in various parts will also be enhanced."
Seeing that Yun Yi wanted to ask something else, Hu Liena urged, "Okay, absorb this spirit ring quickly, don't delay, we can talk about these little things later."
Yun Yi nodded slightly, temporarily put aside the matter of the soul bone, came to the dark soul ring, slowly sat down, and began to adjust his breath. Five soul rings appeared around him. Yun Yi raised his hand slightly, and in an instant, the dark soul ring was summoned by Yun Yi, and turned into a stream of light and came towards Yun Yi. With a flash of light, it was directly put on Yun Yi's body. In just a moment, a huge and bloody cold airflow also pierced into Yun Yi's body in an instant.
The huge, bloody and icy airflow was extremely powerful. The moment it rushed into Yun Yi's body, Yun Yi was unable to suppress it for a while. Although he was unable to suppress it for a while, the mental power left in the soul ring could not shake Yun Yi's sea of spirituality.
"It's worthy of being a soul beast with main spirit. Even with my current mental power, I can't suppress it instantly. This is just the residual spiritual power." Yun Yi said secretly in his heart.
He had a great advantage in this battle. All species that use mental power, whether human or soul beast, lack effective means of attack within a certain period of time, because mental power is a power with a very high threshold for use. The most typical examples are Hu Liena and the dark gold bat. Although their mental power is strong enough, the threshold for use of mental power is too high, making it difficult to form a powerful means of attack, except for Huo Gua of course.
The main means of the Dark Gold Bat are sonic attacks mixed with mental power and powerful regeneration ability, but these have extremely restrained coping methods in front of Yun Yi. This also allows Yun Yi to read the content of the test of Shura God from the side. Qualified mental power allows you to have the possibility of escaping from the Dark Gold Bat, and possessing the powerful explosive power of a killing god allows you to successfully obtain the reward from Shura.
Obviously, Tang San in the original novel only completed the first item. Of course, the so-called reward is naturally the spirit ring and spirit bone. Yun Yi doesn't believe that his luck is so good that he can get spirit bones every time he hunts for spirit rings.
After being hit by the huge and bloody cold airflow, Yun Yi's Xuantian Gong internal force flowed at an extremely fast speed. The neutral and peaceful airflow and the powerful spiritual power merged into one and condensed together to cover the huge and bloody cold airflow, eating away at the huge and bloody cold airflow bit by bit like a huge millstone.
The absorption process lasted for two hours. When Yun Yi let out a long breath and woke up from his practice, he felt refreshed. An unprecedented feeling permeated his whole body and his entire brain felt extremely clear. Yun Yi realized that his mental strength had improved significantly again, and his soul power had also increased from level 60 to level 65.
Seeing Yun Yi wake up, Hu Liena also hurriedly asked, "How is it? Is there anything uncomfortable about absorbing spirit rings of higher levels?"
Yun Yi smiled and said, "Don't worry, my calculations will never go wrong."
Hu Liena glared at Yun Yi and said angrily, "No one else dares to do this except you. You are well-informed. We don't have such experience, and we don't even have any theoretical data to refer to."
Yun Yi ruffled Hu Liena's short golden hair and said softly, "Yes, I made you worried."
Hu Liena's eyes gradually softened, and she took out the soul bone from the soul guide and said, "Keep it. The soul ring and soul bone will have a better effect on the same person. This skull is even more rare when it is produced by a soul beast with a main spirit. The actual effect of this soul bone is not much different from a 100,000-year-old skull with other attributes. With your creativity, you will not lack skills."
Yun Yi nodded, put the soul bone into the soul guide, and said to Hu Liena, "Let's go, we should be not far from the exit now."
Hu Liena nodded slightly, took out the food and water she brought with her, and the two of them ate a little casually before continuing on their journey.
As the two moved forward, the air became hotter and hotter. Yun Yi, who had taken Star Anise Mysterious Ice Grass and Fiery Apricot, did not notice it at all. However, it didn't take long for him to realize that something was wrong with Hu Liena.
The scorching air made Hu Liena's breathing become heavy, and her heartbeat was particularly obvious in this quiet hell road. Sweat gradually appeared on her forehead and slid down her cheeks. It was obviously caused by excessive physical exertion.
Yun Yi looked at Qiang's stubborn back and couldn't help but smile. Then he raised his hand slightly, and a blue light flashed. An ice-blue armor carrying a chill instantly appeared on Hu Liena's body. The chill emanating from the armor instantly dispelled the heat on Hu Liena's body.
"Silly girl, I asked you to work hard but didn't ask you to do anything stupid. Just tell me if you feel hot. It won't consume much of your soul power to create some ice crystals." Yun Yi chuckled as he walked behind Hu Liena.
Hu Liena looked back with a bit of embarrassment on her face, glared at Yun Yi and said, "Don't say that to me, it's just to help you save some soul power."
Yun Yi looked at Hu Liena and smiled, then said helplessly, "As you command, my Lady Saint."
Hu Liena, who was wrapped in ice crystals, immediately returned to her original state, with a steady breath and abundant soul power.
As the two were walking, suddenly, they heard a rustling sound not far ahead. From time to time, they could hear the sound of several pieces of gravel falling into the abyss. Yun Yi's eyes narrowed slightly. Having watched Douluo Continent, he certainly knew what the thing in front of him was. Yun Yi suddenly jumped up and came in front of Hu Liena.
"Nana, the rope, just like before." Yun Yi said seriously. Upon hearing this, Hu Liena quickly tied the rope tightly behind Yun Yi's back. Yun Yi's perception was much stronger than hers, and she knew that there must be something more terrifying ahead than before.
Yun Yi continued to move forward carrying Hu Liena on his back. Not long after, Hu Liena, who was lying on Yun Yi's back, took a breath of cold air. Hu Liena saw a giant snake coiled on the road in front of them, and it had multiple heads like the dark golden bat just now.
Hu Liena lay on Yun Yi's back and counted silently. When she had counted them all, she could no longer hold back and exclaimed in a low voice, "Ten! Title level?"
According to the soul master theory that Hu Liena had learned, soul beasts would generally have different characteristics as they grew older. The obvious characteristic of the giant snake in front of them was its ten heads. If estimated based on the dark gold bats they had just encountered, the strength of this ten-headed snake was at least at the Titled Douluo level.
"Don't worry, the more heads it has, the more powerful it is. If it really had the strength of a title level, my sister would never have let us come here." Yun Yi whispered to Hu Liena.
Hearing this, Hu Liena felt a little relieved, but she was sure that this snake was stronger than the dark gold bat just now.
Recalling the original work, everything about the snake in front of him appeared in Yun Yi's mind, the Ten-Headed Fiery Sun Snake, the ancient alien species mentioned by Tang San.
Yun Yi smiled. Although the Hell Road looked dangerous, in fact, this terrain was advantageous to them. Giant creatures like the Ten-Headed Fiery Sun Snake simply could not move freely, otherwise they would not have coiled their entire bodies on the thin Hell Road.
This was not worth mentioning to a flying soul master like Yun Yi, and he could even fly over it if he wanted to. However, Yun Yi was quite interested in the inner elixir in the snake's body, which could transform Ma Hongjun's martial soul into a ten-headed fire phoenix. Although this might not be considered an evolution, it was just that the number of heads increased. Yun Yi did not know the actual situation. The quality of a martial soul could not be judged solely by these features. Just like this ten-headed Fiery Sun Snake, with ten heads, wouldn't it be a god-level beast?
A rustling sound was heard, and several huge snake heads with their bloody mouths opened rushed towards Yun Yi and the others, as if they were going to swallow Yun Yi in the next second.
Yun Yi suddenly took light steps and flew into the air, dodging the attacks of the snake heads in the air. This snake was also very smart, and its tail tightly coiled around the other end of the broken passage, preventing Yun Yi from getting close.
The pair of golden-red eyes became bright. It had already regarded Yun Yi and Hu Liena as its meals. The snake tongue on each head kept stretching and retracting to sense Yun Yi's every move.
Yun Yi was not to be outdone, and a green light flashed around him. Countless dense wind blades flew towards the huge snake body.
"Hiss..." The ten-headed Fiery Sun Snake let out a strange cry in pain. Its body was covered with dense wounds, as if it was just a slight skin scrape. Suddenly, the ten tumors behind the ten giant snakes' heads emitted a fiery red light.
"Wow..." The mouth of the Ten-Headed Fiery Sun Snake gathered fiery red energy. As the energy continued to gather, the fiery red color gradually turned white-hot. Ten white-hot flames gushed out of the snake's mouth, and the snake's mouth continuously spewed out snake breath towards Yun Yi, trying to repel Yun Yi.
The hot snake breath also carried a sweet and fishy smell, and it was obvious that it contained snake venom, but these did not have much effect on Yun Yi, who was immune to water and fire.
Ten incandescent flames instantly formed a fire net that covered Yun Yi and the other person. Yun Yi did not dodge, but flapped his wings and wrapped Hu Liena with ice crystals. He was immune to fire and was immune to all poisons, so he didn't care about the attacking fire net at all. The next second, Yun Yi Wuji appeared in Yun Yi's hand and shot out the fire net at an extremely fast speed.
A strange scene appeared. The strange snake did not collide with Wuji head-on. Seeing that Wuji was about to hit it, the strange snake turned its body and fell from the narrow road to the abyss next to it. When Yun Yi took back Wuji, its head was wrapped around the narrow road again, and the body behind it repeated the same process, and it actually dodged Wuji's attack.
Yun Yi rushed out of the fire net and took Wuji back. The ten-headed Fiery Sun Snake's heads accelerated in an instant and shot towards the two of them.
Boom... In an instant, the place where Yun Yi had just stood was completely destroyed by the ten-headed Fiery Sun Snakes.
Yun Yi held Wuji in his hand and looked at the huge snake body in the air. A rich metallic luster was emanating from Yun Yi's Wuji. At this moment, the huge snake body looked like a piece of red-hot iron in Yun Yi's eyes. Yun Yi swung Wuji down at an extremely fast speed. Hu Liena, who was behind him, could only see Yun Yi making his move. As Yun Yi's movements quickened, in Hu Liena's eyes, there were already shadows of sticks filling the sky. However, as the number of stick shadows continued to increase, Hu Liena discovered that countless stick shadows gradually merged into one, and the momentum bursting out from Yun Yi was increasing exponentially.
As the huge stick shadow gradually merged into one, the body of the Ten-Headed Fiery Sun Snake quickly retreated. Suddenly, it used the same trick again, as if it had also sensed the terrifying aura of Wuji at this time and tried to avoid Yun Yi's attack.
Just as the snake was falling towards the abyss, a huge force pulled its body back to the top of the narrow road. Its body, which was more than ten meters long, was lifted high and flew backwards due to the airflow.
“Although my Wuji is not as heavy as the Clear Sky Hammer, nor does it have that huge hammer face, it is extremely light and agile to wield. The process of accumulating power is too fast, and the power is greatly weakened, but my physical strength is enough to make up for this.” Yun Yi murmured in his heart.
Hu Liena behind him discovered that the metallic luster of the Wuji in Yun Yi's hand became increasingly intense, as if Yun Yi was about to merge into one with the Wuji in his hand.
“Nine things come back to one, so that’s how it is, the unity of body, soul power and spirit. No wonder Tang Hao only taught Tang San this one move.” Yun Yi murmured in his heart.
Now Yun Yi also understood the profound meaning of this chaotic cloak. The chaotic cloak is not just a power-charging skill. The process of learning the power-generating technique of the chaotic cloak is more like guiding a weapon spirit master to understand himself and his martial spirit.
The purpose of learning the force-generating technique is to enable weapon soul masters to achieve the unity of body and soul power in battle, and the process of waving the cloak is like a process of understanding oneself and the martial soul, gradually guiding the soul master to integrate his mental power into the weapon soul.
Yun Yi stopped, still holding Wuji tightly in his hand. The next second, a horrifying scene appeared in front of Hu Liena. A huge stick shadow instantly hit the snake's body. The stick shadow flashed and disappeared. The giant snake's body suddenly stopped, and the stick shadow disappeared without a trace.
The huge body of the Ten-Headed Fiery Sun Serpent, all the parts above the narrow road, disappeared quietly, turned into tiny bits of powder and slid down, without any scars, as if it had been erased. The body below, having lost the support from above, broke into several sections and fell towards the abyss at the same time.
Hu Liena couldn't help but open her mouth slightly when she saw this scene behind Yun Yi.
A golden-red light fell from the sky. Yun Yi waved his right hand, and under the pull of an invisible suction force, the golden-red light fell into his palm.
