Chapter 32: Blame It on Being a Soul Beast
Absorbing a soul bone isn't a difficult task.
At least for Lan Zheng and Lan Lu, it was quite easy.
One after another, they slowly opened their eyes.
They exchanged glances, their eyes filled with excitement and joy; they had both been waiting for this day for a long time.
"Father, who was faster?"
Their speeds were actually quite similar, but years of competition still made them look at Lan Tian, who was not far away.
"It should be Xiao Lu, but not by much," Lan Tian, who had been observing them, quickly replied.
"Consider yourself lucky. Congratulations."
Lan Zheng didn't dwell on it too much after hearing that.
If his dad said it was, then it was.
A 100,000-year soul beast, he'd just have to wait for the next one with fate.
"Just luck, just luck."
Lan Lu was also very excited, unsure if it was about the 100,000-year soul beast or winning against Lan Zheng.
At this point, both of them had successfully absorbed a soul bone and entered the Titled Douluo stage at level ninety.
All that was left was absorbing a soul ring.
It turned out that all three, father and sons, were in the same boat.
As long as they absorbed their soul rings, a family of three Titled Douluo?
Speaking of it would be enough to astound most people.
After all, even direct descendants of sects like the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Sect and the Clear Sky Sect could have members unable to cultivate or with innate soul power of only 0.5 levels.
For all three of them to become Titled Douluo, their talent and opportunities were considerable.
"What's wrong with her?"
Soon, Lan Lu also noticed the little rabbit nearby.
Xiao Wu's grief-stricken expression was exactly like that of a child who had been terribly abused.
He looked towards his father.
"She can't stand that her third brother is gone."
"So you'd better send her to meet her third brother quickly."
Lan Tian spoke casually from the side.
He wasn't intentionally trying to provoke her.
But these words still made the 100,000-year old rabbit's eyes turn even redder.
"I won't let you have your way."
"Just pointing fingers and deciding my fate."
Unsure which words had provoked her, the old rabbit glared, sweeping her gaze over the few people.
All three of them were at level ninety soul power, and their previous conversation clearly indicated they intended to give her to that guy, Lan Lu.
Naturally, she wouldn't let them have their wish.
As she spoke, soul power spread across her body, but it wasn't an attack.
A cold smile appeared on her delicate face as she looked at Lan Tian, as if this was her revenge.
She intended to sacrifice herself directly, and the target of that sacrifice was none other than Lan Tian.
This made Lan Zheng and Lan Lu widen their eyes, not expecting this old rabbit to have so many thoughts.
They had no chance to stop her.
But others might not be so helpless.
Blue Silver tendrils quickly pierced through her soul power, fiercely lashing at Xiao Wu. Little Lan showed a rare hint of ferocity.
It was clear that she was very displeased with Xiao Wu's actions. Her fierce demeanor made Lan Zheng and Lan Lu, who were nearby, take a step back.
"You're asking for trouble!"
And Lan Tian was even more direct. For the other party to appear before him,
He had naturally made ample preparations. Her little tricks were mere child's play in his eyes.
A massive mental attack instantly pierced through the little rabbit's mental defenses.
This caused the soul power she had just condensed to vanish instantly...
It also made Xiao Wu's eyes become hollow and powerless, as if she had completely lost consciousness.
A 100,000-year soul beast's sacrifice typically involves condensing its soul power and the soul beast's essence to form a sacrificial light, allowing it to resonate with the soul master's soul power. Once the sacrificial field is formed, it is difficult to interrupt, even for a Titled Douluo.
That's why Xiao Wu was confident that she could prevent Lan Tian and the others from getting their wish.
However, she had completely underestimated how quickly the two people beside her would attack.
The sacrificial light hadn't even appeared.
Her mental consciousness was shattered, leaving her unable to even condense her strength, let alone form a sacrificial field.
"Blame it on being a soul beast."
Although he said that, Xiao Wu couldn't hear it.
Looking at the old rabbit with hollow eyes, Lan Tian didn't show much emotion.
Dealing with a 100,000-year old rabbit wouldn't affect his mood much; if anything, it would make him happy.
He quickly looked at Lan Lu, who was nearby.
"Get ready to absorb it. Don't let anything go wrong."
"Yes."
Lan Lu nodded directly.
He almost lost his 100,000-year soul ring.
And given their situation, even if he did lose it, he wouldn't dare covet their Aunt Lan.
"Little Lan, get ready to conceal this area."
Lan Tian didn't realize that his words just now had also made Little Lan fall into thought for a moment.
She seemed to still be pondering the phrase, 'Blame it on being a soul beast.'
Only when she heard Lan Tian's words did she snap back to attention.
Her eyes quickly cleared.
"Blue Silver Domain..."
Lan Tian and Little Lan acted together. A large expanse of Blue Silver Grass quickly spread, soon transforming the area they were in into a forest.
All the auras within it were also completely concealed.
The vast Blue Silver Forest occupied most of the manor, obscuring the auras of the few people.
This enormous soul power fluctuation also caught the attention of some people in Blue Silver City.
But at this time, no one dared to act recklessly in Blue Silver City.
"Thank you, Father, Aunt Lan."
Lan Lu didn't dally.
With a stretch of his hand, icy tendrils instantly wrapped around Xiao Wu.
His martial soul wasn't ordinary Blue Silver Grass; perhaps it should be called Frost Blue Silver Grass. Its ice-attributed power was not weaker than most ice-type martial souls. Over the years, it had absorbed much life essence and ice-attributed soul rings, leading to even greater improvements.
Although it couldn't reach the level of ultimate ice, it was not inferior to those top-tier martial souls.
Frozen by the ice, she quickly lost her breath. Immediately after, a crimson 100,000-year soul ring emerged from Xiao Wu's body...
Lan Lu sat cross-legged directly, absorbing the 100,000-year soul ring...
The soul power of the 100,000-year soul ring continuously surged out. It was only due to the concealment of the Blue Silver Forest that the aura wasn't leaking everywhere.
"You don't need to rush. You'll have your chance."
Lan Tian comforted Lan Zheng, who was watching Lan Lu.
"This one is for you."
In reality, missing out on this old rabbit might not necessarily be a bad thing this time.
Perhaps he could find something more suitable for himself later.
The 100,000-year Blue Silver Emperor soul bone was handed to Lan Zheng.
"Thank you, Father."
In reality, Lan Zheng didn't think much of it.
In fact, his gains might even be greater.
He was also pondering where he should go to acquire his soul ring.
Given the current situation in Blue Silver City, there were many who could help him acquire a soul ring.
Father and son waited together for Lan Lu to fully absorb the soul ring.
Everything went quite smoothly; with Lan Lu's foundation, there shouldn't be any problems.
"The soul skills are better than I expected. I have a virtualization ability and a close-combat skill."
After absorbing the 100,000-year soul ring and its accompanying soul bone, Lan Lu's soul power level directly increased to 93.
"The soul bone skills are a teleportation and an invincible golden body."
Both the soul bone and the soul skills had abilities that exceeded his expectations.
Who would have thought that a Soft Bone Rabbit martial soul would have such special abilities?
Even Lan Zheng showed some envy.
Aside from the close-combat skill, the other abilities were quite useful for a soul master.
