...
A cold glint flashed in Luo Nan's eyes, and he keenly captured a trace of vulnerability exposed on the abdomen of the Earth Armor Dragon while it was resisting Tang Xiao's attack.
"Fifth Spirit Ability, Sacred Dragon Golden Flame!"
Luo Nan shouted loudly, and the Soul Power within his body surged frantically.
The Golden Sacred Dragon opened its large mouth, and a stream of golden flames like substance gushed out, transforming into a fire dragon that accurately bombarded the crack on the abdomen of the Earth Armor Dragon.
This Sacred Dragon Golden Flame was not an ordinary flame; it contained the ultimate power of light and destruction, and possessed extremely strong adhesiveness.
"Hiss, hiss, hiss——!"
The golden flame clung tightly to the wound of the Earth Armor Dragon like glue, frantically burning its flesh and blood.
"Roar——!"
The Earth Armor Dragon let out a shrill and miserable scream.
That bone-deep burning sensation made it wish it were dead, and it rolled frantically on the ground, attempting to extinguish the flames on its body.
But that Sacred Dragon Golden Flame was like a bone-attaching gangrene, burning fiercer the more it burned.
"Good opportunity!"
Brilliant light burst from Tang Xiao's eyes, and he took a deep breath, the Soul Power throughout his body frantically converging toward the Clear Sky Hammer in his hand.
"Ninth Spirit Ability, Heaven-Crushing Strike!"
Tang Xiao roared angrily, and the Clear Sky Hammer in his hand instantly expanded several times over!
It transformed into a small black mountain, carrying a terrifying might that could destroy heaven and earth, fiercely smashing toward the head of the Earth Armor Dragon.
"Boom——!"
There was a heaven-shaking, earth-shattering loud noise.
Under Tang Xiao's all-out strike, the incomparably hard skull of the Earth Armor Dragon finally shattered with a bang.
Its massive body twitched violently a few times before finally collapsing powerlessly to the ground, its vitality rapidly fading away.
"Hoo..."
Tang Xiao panted heavily, releasing his Martial Soul True Body.
That strike just now had consumed a massive amount of his Soul Power.
"Fifth Spirit Ability, Sacred Dragon Golden Flame!"
Luo Nan quickly delivered a finishing blow, a mouthful of golden dragon sacred flame directly spitting out and killing the Earth Armor Dragon, completing the final harvest.
Luo Nan leaped down from the back of the Golden Sacred Dragon and walked over to the corpse of the Earth Armor Dragon.
Along with the death of the Earth Armor Dragon, a circle of extremely profound blood-red spirit ring emitting a terrifying might that could make one's heart palpitate slowly emerged from its corpse.
A 100,000-year spirit ring!
Looking at that circle of blood-red spirit ring, a trace of fanaticism flashed in Luo Nan's eyes.
Without the slightest hesitation, he sat cross-legged directly beside the corpse of the Earth Armor Dragon, released his Spirit, and began to guide that 100,000-year spirit ring.
"Boom!"
The moment that circle of blood-red spirit ring settled onto Luo Nan's body, an unimaginably huge and terrifying energy rushed into his body like a breached flood.
Luo Nan let out a muffled groan, and the bones throughout his body emitted a series of teeth-aching cracking sounds.
His complexion instantly turned crimson as blood, and blue veins protruded like coiling dragons, as if they could burst open at any moment.
The terrifying Soul shock produced after the death of the 100,000-year Spirit Beast was even like a heavy hammer fiercely pounding against his sea of consciousness.
"Suppress it for me!"
Luo Nan clenched his teeth tightly, frantically urging the Golden Sacred Dragon Bloodline within his body, as well as the physical strength that had been reinforced to the extreme by top-grade whale glue over the past month, desperately resisting that terrifying impact.
Time passed minute by minute.
Luo Nan's body was trembling violently, and sweat mixed with blood continuously oozed from his pores, staining the ground beneath him a dark red.
Tang Xiao stood to the side, watching Luo Nan nervously.
He knew that at this time no one could help Luo Nan; he could only rely on himself to tough it out.
If he couldn't endure it, the outcome would be exploding and dying from the inside out.
To be honest, Tang Xiao hoped more than anyone that Luo Nan could endure it.
Only Luo Nan could guarantee Tang Yuehua's safety...
I do not know how much time had passed, but the violent aura on Luo Nan's body finally began to gradually calm down.
That circle of blood-red spirit ring had also completely integrated into his body.
"Successful!"
Tang Xiao let out a long breath, his eyes filled with shock.
Absorbing a 100,000-year spirit ring at Rank 80—this madman had actually really done it!
Luo Nan slowly opened his eyes, two streams of substantive golden light bursting out from his eyes.
He stood up, feeling the vast Soul Power within his body like a vast ocean, and an arrogant smile curved the corners of his mouth.
Rank 81!
However, the pleasant surprise was far from over.
Just as Luo Nan was preparing to get up, a burst of extremely dense earthy-yellow light suddenly erupted from the mountain-like corpse of the Earth Armor Dragon.
This light was like substance, carrying a terrifying aura heavy as a mountain, instantly attracting the gazes of Luo Nan and Tang Xiao.
"A 100,000-year Spirit Bone!"
Tang Xiao, standing to the side, could not help crying out in alarm, a trace of difficult-to-conceal shock flashing through his eyes.
A 100,000-year Spirit Beast is bound to drop a Spirit Bone; this is an ironclad rule of the Douluo Continent.
A trace of fanaticism flashed in Luo Nan's eyes.
Without the slightest hesitation, he directly reached out and grabbed that Earth Armor Dragon right arm bone.
"Hum——!"
At the moment it came into contact with Luo Nan's palm, that 100,000-year right arm bone seemed to have gained life, emitting a low dragon roar.
Immediately following, it transformed into a stream of earthy-yellow light, sliding along Luo Nan's palm and drilling directly into his right arm.
"Boom!"
An extremely huge, heavy, and violent energy instantly exploded within Luo Nan's right arm.
Luo Nan let out a muffled groan, feeling as if his right arm had been thrown into a smelting furnace for calcination; his bones, muscles, and Meridians were all experiencing the excruciating pain of tearing and reorganization.
But he bit down hard, without letting out a single scream, frantically urging the Soul Power within his body to guide this huge energy to fuse with his right arm.
Up until now, Luo Nan did not even have a single Spirit Bone on his body.
This was not because Luo Nan had bad luck and couldn't find a Spirit Bone.
With the methods Luo Nan had used in the underground black markets and major auction houses over the years, getting a few ten-thousand-year level Spirit Bones was not a difficult task.
In fact, Luo Nan had indeed acquired a few decent-quality Spirit Bones in the past, but he sold every single one of them without hesitation in exchange for a massive amount of cultivation resources.
From the very beginning, Luo Nan had never intended to absorb those ordinary Spirit Bones.
His goal was that all six Spirit Bone parts across his entire body must be top-grade 100,000-year level Spirit Bones!
For this nearly crazy goal, he would rather leave his Spirit Bone slots vacant all along, and would rather have a few fewer trump cards in battle, than ever settle for less.
This forbearance and daring made even Tang Xiao, the Sect Master of the Clear Sky Sect, feel alarmed.
And now, Luo Nan's forbearance had finally been rewarded.
His very first Spirit Bone was the extremely rare 100,000-year Earth Armor Dragon right arm bone, which emphasized both defense and strength!
Time passed minute by minute.
The earthy-yellow light radiating from Luo Nan's right arm gradually receded, and finally completely integrated into his skin.
"Hoo..."
Luo Nan let out a long breath of turbid air and slowly stood up.
Then, his Rank continued to rise...
Rank 82... Rank 83... Rank 84!
