"Thump, thump, thump…"
A series of footsteps broke the night's silence.
A pair of delicate hands pushed open the door, and the silver-haired Dragon Girl emerged from the underground World of Sea God Pavilion.
"Senior Brother, Senior Sister."
An Zhen greeted them.
Gu Yuena had not absorbed the Spirit Bone yet, planning to do so after returning.
This was on the surface.
In reality, this body was her true form, the Silver Dragon King; how could she absorb a Spirit Beast's Spirit Bone? Even if it was for calcium, it would be ingested, not integrated with her leg. This was a desecration to her. As a being who inherited the Dragon God's wisdom, the Silver Dragon King was proficient in and controlled all elemental powers. Gu Yuena planned to find another place, let this rebellious subordinate contribute a little to her, absorb some of his energy, and then unlock some abilities, treating it as Spirit Bone Spirit Ability she absorbed. As long as it was similar, she could fool them, after all, the first Spirit Elementalist was also a type of Beast Spirit, and her second Spirit also had very strong dragon factors.
"Naer, have you decided on your path now?"
"Yes."
The aloof young girl unhesitatingly took a step with her long, beautiful legs, walking past Yan Shaozhe's distressed gaze to the delighted Xian Liner. "I want to become a Soul Guide."
"Sigh." Yan Shaozhe felt a pang of sadness, though it was an outcome he had long anticipated.
"Welcome!" Xian Liner was overjoyed, even a little excited. A twin Spirit! Such a talented seedling, if it were in the past, it would never have been their Soul Guidance System's turn. Even a congenital full spirit power was rare for many years. "From today on, you are my disciple, Weapon God Douluo Xian Liner."
"Yes, Teacher." Gu Yuena bowed slightly.
Yan Shaozhe's resentful gaze fell on An Zhen. Although he knew this was Gu Yuena's own choice, it was truly painful to watch his talented disciple from the Martial Soul Department run off to the Soul Guidance System.
"Actually, I think Naer has great talent as a Soul Guide." Meeting the gazes of the two deans, An Zhen spoke, "For example, elemental control. Naer, let your teacher understand you."
"Okay." Gu Yuena nodded lightly, extended her delicate hand, and grasped forward. Earth-yellow power was stripped from the spiritual energy of heaven and earth, forming nine petals that converged into the shape of a flower.
"Elemental control?" The two deans suddenly recalled Gu Yuena's first Spirit. Yan Shaozhe remembered the scene of Gu Yuena controlling the Ice Dragon during the battle between the reserve team and the main team that day. However, because An Zhen and Ling Luochen at the time overshadowed her brilliance, and the young girl's power when she held the Silver Dragon Spear, their attention had been focused on Gu Yuena's second Spirit.
"Fire." A single word escaped her delicate cherry lips. A fiery red glow enveloped Gu Yuena's fair, tender fingertips. As her fingertips moved, eight dreamily beautiful fiery red petals landed on the earth-yellow petals.
"Wind." A streak of green spiritual light spread, and free, agile energy transformed into green leaves and a calyx.
"Water." Three blue petals adorned it, making it beautiful beyond compare.
"Four-element mastery!" Yan Shaozhe was surprised. And these were the four basic elements that constitute the World: earth, wind, fire, water. No, adding what she showed in the previous battle, she also had mastery over the ice element.
Gu Yuena's eyes were filled with solemnity. Without using her reverse scale, this level still put some pressure on her current self.
"Go." The young girl's fair fingertips lightly touched the petals. The astonishing four-colored flower was directly teleported in front of Xian Liner. The four elements flowed within it, maintaining a stable structure.
"Space!" Yan Shaozhe was extremely sad. He hadn't been this upset even when he learned of his own background.
But smiles don't disappear; they merely transfer to other people's faces.
"Good!" Xian Liner was overjoyed. Her nine spirit rings unfolded, and a dragon claw, seemingly condensed from green flames, grabbed the four-colored flower in front of her. Gu Yuena released her mental force control, and the uncontrolled four elements exploded in Xian Liner's hand. Of course, this small amount of power was nothing to Xian Liner.
Xian Liner's fervent gaze fell on Gu Yuena.
Just a Spirit Elder, yet she could control and master the four elements to such an extent, and even use space to teleport them. Such powerful elemental control talent, based on this alone, was absolutely not inferior to Extreme attributes. A treasure, a great treasure!
"Astounding." An aged voice sounded as the white-haired Mu En descended the stairs from the second floor of Sea God Pavilion. His benevolent gaze fell upon Gu Yuena. "Shrek once had someone who could master multiple elements, but mastering multiple elements was too demanding of mental force. Even until his demise, he was merely a Spirit Saint who had mastered three elements."
"Child, but you are different. In terms of mental force control, even An Zhen and Huo Yutong, whose mental force far surpasses yours, are inferior to you." Mu En hadn't expected such a pleasant surprise.
An Zhen nodded lightly. In terms of mental force control alone, not only in the Douluo World, but even looking at the Douluo God Realm, even the five Supreme God Kings were inferior to the Silver Dragon King. "Not only the four basic elements and space, Naer's Elementalist possesses mastery over all elements, but her current mental force limits her full potential."
"Teacher." Yan Shaozhe looked eagerly at Mu En.
"The path must be chosen by oneself, Shao Zhe. A teacher's responsibility is to help students grow, not to interfere." Mu En shook his head.
"Exactly, exactly." Xian Liner took Gu Yuena's wrist and said seriously, "Naer, don't worry, all resources of the Soul Guidance System will be tilted towards you and Huo Yutong."
Xian Liner looked triumphantly at Yan Shaozhe, "Yan Shaozhe, hurry up and complete the transfer procedures for my disciple. I can teach all those Spirit Master knowledge as well."
No matter what, she was a ninety-fourth-level Titled Douluo. Let alone first-year Spirit Master knowledge, she could teach various theories and combat techniques for higher grades as well.
An Zhen and Gu Yuena returned. After "absorbing the Spirit Bone," Gu Yuena would report to the Soul Guidance System.
Zhang Lexuan's residence.
"How do we do this?"
An Zhen took the hundred-thousand-year Spirit Bone that Gu Yuena handed him. It was a torso bone, which he already had. Combined with what Gu Yuena had given him before, he could take them to the Sun Moon Empire later for his older brother and sister to equip.
"Give me your energy." Gu Yuena reached out and pushed An Zhen onto the bed. Her exquisite face entered An Zhen's eyes, aloof and captivating. Her white short boots landed on the floor, and her white-stockinged feet stepped onto the bed. Moving her long, beautiful legs, she directly straddled An Zhen.
"I can't give it like this." An Zhen didn't know the method of dual cultivation.
"Hmm."
Gu Yuena puffed out her cheeks, hands on her hips. "When such things are done is up to the King, not the Queen. You just need to release energy; I will lead the energy."
"Alright, you're the King, you make the rules." Looking at the silver dragon girl pressing down on him, An Zhen felt a hint of the aloof girl's cuteness. Being beautiful, everything she did was pleasing to the eye.
"That's right." Gu Yuena nodded lightly with satisfaction, a smile curving her delicate cherry lips. "Rebellious subordinate, I allow you to kiss me."
"As you command."
After more than a month apart, An Zhen truly missed his soft and fragrant Master.
Her soft, delicate body entered his embrace, silver hair fluttering. Two figures intertwined, and fiery red and ice blue energy flowed from An Zhen's Virtual World through his body, injecting into Gu Yuena's body. Then, with their contact, part of the power fed back into An Zhen's body.
…
"The improvement is fast, but I feel a bit weak."
An Zhen sat in meditation, his vast mental force mobilizing the spirit power within his body, compressing and stabilizing it. Under the control of his mental force, he smoothed out the originally somewhat unstable spirit power. A ripple of spirit power spread out, and a pair of dark eyes slowly opened. "Forty-eighth level."
"An Zhen." Gu Yuena hugged him from behind, her exquisite cheek gently rubbing against An Zhen, like a clingy silver cat.
More than a month of accumulation, finally released after a day of indulgence. Gu Yuena did not enter a deep meditation state; she merely pretended to be in seclusion for over a month. Pure desire meant nothing to Gu Yuena, but the joy of releasing it freely was naturally excellent.
An Zhen informed her about Bi Ji's situation.
"Anyway, it's under the human identity background." Gu Yuena felt indifferent about this. An Zhen had only one King, and that was her. Bi Ji was just a maid, and others were merely An Zhen's toys.
Based on the abilities of that hundred-thousand-year Spirit Bone, Gu Yuena activated two abilities. First, Elemental Body, which allowed her body to elementalize. Second, a passive ability, Elemental Amplification.
With daily cultivation, this meditation, and the Ice Fire Dragon King's power absorbed to activate her abilities, Gu Yuena's spirit power smoothly reached the fortieth-level bottleneck. As for stability, An Zhen felt he didn't need to worry about the Silver Dragon King's cultivation issues.
"Knock, knock, knock~"
A knock sounded at the door.
mental force detected it was Huo Yutong and the other girls.
"Naer." An Zhen lightly patted the young girl's shapely bottom. "Let's put on some clothes first."
An Zhen's Virtual World cleaned up the strange smell and the traces left by the previous "battle" in the room. An Zhen got up and left the bedroom to open the door.
"Brother An Zhen!" A blue-haired little cutie threw herself into An Zhen's arms. "Did we disturb you?"
An Zhen hugged the soft and fragrant little cutie in his arms tightly. "How can Yu Tong's arrival be called a disturbance?"
"Tsk, scumbag talk."
Wang Donger rolled her eyes at An Zhen, glancing at Gu Yuena who walked out of the bedroom. This guy was a hundred-thousand-year Silver Dragon in human form, so her age naturally couldn't be calculated by human standards. She had already done 'that' with An Zhen, and most likely, they had just been doing it.
Huh? Wait, what about Gu Yuena's Aunt Bi Ji?
Wang Donger suddenly remembered this matter.
Adopted? That Bi Ji wouldn't also be a Spirit Beast in human form, would she?
An Zhen looked at the girls. Besides Wu Feng, who was still in seclusion, Xu Jiujiu had also come. Compared to before, the girls' spirit power had all increased by several levels.
"How was the harvest?"
Huo Yutong and Wang Dong had been stuck at level forty early on and hadn't had time to obtain spirit rings.
Xiao Xiao's face showed a joyful expression, and her clear voice rang out, "I just reached the fortieth-level bottleneck. I plan to take the path of a support system battle Spirit Master. Nine Phoenix Auspicious Xiao will be for support, while Three Lives Soul Cauldron will be an all-purpose support, combining offensive and defensive capabilities."
Immortal Herb, hundred-thousand-year Spirit Bone, Xiao Xiao never dreamed she could absorb these treasures.
An Zhen nodded lightly, the same path as in the original novel.
Ning Tian's clear blue eyes looked at An Zhen with tenderness. "The path of support, forty-fourth level Spirit Ancestor."
Her Nine Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda would always be behind An Zhen.
"Naer has also reached level forty." It seemed it was time to visit the Star Dou Great Forest. "Wu Feng was already thirty-eighth level before going into seclusion. After she comes out this time, if she can completely refine the treasures within her body, she should be able to achieve forty-level Extreme Fire. Even if not, after absorbing the Spirit Bone, it should be close."
"Once Wu Feng comes out of seclusion, please ask Teacher to lead the team, and we will go to the Star Dou Great Forest together to obtain spirit rings."
It was close and had a rich variety of Spirit Beasts.
At that time, he could arrange for Di Tian to get some suitable Spirit Beasts. It would be like arranging dinner for Uncle Fire Dragon King.
An Zhen glanced at Gu Yuena beside him.
And the Emperor Rui Beast!
He didn't know how she was doing, or if she had Tang Wutong's soul. He would have to notify them then, to keep a close eye on her and arrange for them to be far apart, making sure they didn't meet. Otherwise, whether it was him or Huo Yutong, once they touched the Emperor Rui Beast's third eye and exchanged souls, wouldn't that be ruined?
Not to mention how many things he couldn't let others know.
Huo Yutong had personally experienced him threatening the two Dragon Kings. If the Emperor Rui Beast found out, Di Tian would probably be so angry that he would immediately launch a beast tide.
"Star Dou Great Forest?"
The girls nodded lightly.
"There's one more thing." An Zhen's gaze drifted, as if he had done something guilty. "You have one more sister."
The girls:!
Xu Jiujiu: Bi Ji?
"An Zhen!" Wang Donger was very angry. The dreamlike girl quickly walked forward, her delicate hand directly grabbing An Zhen's collar. "You said there wasn't before, were you lying to me and Yu Tong?!"
Wang Donger knew An Zhen couldn't control his lower body; she understood. Just like the agreement he had with An Zhen before, but she couldn't stand being deceived.
"It wasn't during your seclusion; it was during the Soul Fighting Competition." An Zhen quickly explained.
"Eh?" Wang Donger released her grip, a puzzled expression on her face.
During the Soul Fighting Competition? But during that period, hadn't An Zhen almost always stayed in his room? The few times he went out, he was accompanied by one or more of them. The only time he wasn't accompanied by them was when he was taken away by the Star Luo Emperor, and then Xu Jiujiu appeared.
Ning Tian pondered, then said somewhat uncertainly, "Aunt Bi Ji?"
Although the other party looked young, she was still Gu Yuena's aunt, so they either called her senior or aunt.
An Zhen nodded lightly.
"Brother An Zhen." Huo Yutong was helpless.
Gu Yuena was the Silver Dragon King, so that Bi Ji was most likely also a Spirit Beast, right?
"You… you even went after someone's aunt!" Wang Donger's fair little fist softly hit An Zhen. But what exactly was that Bi Ji's background? A hundred-thousand-year Silver Dragon's aunt, and an Emerald Swan Spirit? Could she be a hundred-thousand-year Emerald Swan in human form? Anyway, there was definitely no blood relation.
"I'll explain Bi Ji to you later." An Zhen's soul voice resonated in Wang Donger's mind.
