After his briefing about the incident with Yun Ming, Tang Wulin did not return to his dorm. He said by the Gold tree to cultivate.
Meanwhile, in Spirit Pagoda, Gu Yue was discussing about the incident with her master, Leng Yaozhu.
"What do you think the Counsil will do about Wulin?", Gu Yue asked.
"Oh, is my little disciple worried about her beloved?", the Heavenly Phoenix doulou teased.
"I'm serious ", Gu Yue said indifferently, but couldn't hide her pink cheeck.
Leng Yaozhu chuckled but then turned serious. "The loss of Tyrant dragon isn't an issue. But the thorn dragon was recently obtained with your clan's help. It is just in observation stage, but it was more promising than the Tyrant dragon. So that is a huge loss. If it were someone else, spirit Pagoda would do anything in their power to bring him on our side. Actually with his talent, I would have done so even without this incident "
Leng Yaozhu said, while Gu Yue listened attentively.
"With his strange martial soul and battle sense, his talent is only inferior to you. After all, he was able to take down a duskgold dreadclaw bear in am instant", Leng Yaozhu said.
This shocked Gu Yue. She clearly remembered how they suffered against a the same beast not too long ago. But now Tang Wulin was able to defeat it in an instant? That's way too much progress!
"And what is that martial soul? I checked his martial was supposed to be blue silver grass. But this one doesn't seem like it. Is it mutated?", Leng Yaozhu asked.
"It's second awakening not too long ago. Just a week ago actually ", Gu Yue said indifferently.
"Second awakening of blue silver grass?", Leng Yaozhu thought, but realisation hit her as she understood what it means
"His martial soul is blue silver emperor?! The one that only appeared 20,000 years ago?", Leng Yaozhu exclaimed in shock.
"Yes ", Gu Yue said. She didn't care about this. All she wanted to know was about Tang Wulin's safety.
"He's also a 'Tang', so does this mean, Tang Wulin might be the Sea God Tang San's descendent?", Leng Yaozhu was practically screaming.
"Is it really that big of a deal? I know Tang San was a major figure all those years ago, bit is someone being his descendent that important matter?", Gu Yue asked in confusion.
"Gu Yue, you're so smart and talented, how could you ask something this foolish? Tang San isn't just some major figure. He is the one who brought new light to the world of soul masters. The one who laid foundation to the the current era for soul masters. Being his descendent is being a descendent of God. And having that martial soul symbolise his bright future as a soul master. After all, Blue Silver Emperor is the ruler of all plant soul beasts ", Leng Yaozhu said.
"Not interested. And you are going off track", Gu Yue Yue said
Leng Yaozhu's lips twitched, but she didn't mind too much. "The council would do anything they could, even bribe him. And if his martial soul is also revealed it would be obvious.
"You also heard right, his bloodline in special. Even the highest quality equipment couldn't determine what it is. And his physique is unusually tough. If anything else, we would think he was a 100,000 year old soul beast. But he isn't. His constitution is human. He is basically a like a beast in human skin.
"His mental strength is definitely close to or more than 700. Because our equipment couldn't measure it. And also, there was some kind of consciousness that was blocking any further attempt. So leaving his potential mysterious and limitless. So having him one our side is a great asset"
Gu Yue also heard these. That other conscious was bugging her though. But she knew it was Tang Wulin's biggest secret, that he wouldn't tell anyone.
"But we can't do anything. He has the support of both the Tang Sect and Shrek. We can't afford to challenge them regardless of our power and status ", Leng Yaozhu said.
"For now, just observe him. As for whether or not he has the Thorn dragon, we can only let it go ", she finished.
Gu Yue nodded. She also left the Spirit Pagoda. She sat in her car, along side a Blackrobed man. A barrier was erected preventing any sort of voice from being heard from out side.
"What are you gonna do your highness?", the man asked.
"Observe ", Gu Yue said indifferently
"But you also saw what happened right? Even the Tyrant Dragon kneeled down to him. His blood is too pure. If you could gain it, you could ascend to your prime ", the man said impatiently.
"Are you questioning me?", Gu Yue asked coldly.
The man shuddered, "I dare not. I only suggested. Please don't be offended your eminence ".
Gu Yue ignored him as she was lost in her thoughts.
.
.
.
"Which one are you gonna absorb?", Jin asked.
"Not sure ", Tang Wulin was confused. He knew both the dragon's were incredibly strong, but couldn't make up his mind.
"I suggest the thorn dragon. After all, having a space element skill is useful. Also, you have another use of it as well", Old Tang said.
"Other use?", Tang Wulin asked in confusion.
He was currently focusing on integration. The Gold tree was the best place for him to do so. So ain't no way he would let it go.
Wines were covering him like cocoon. It spread into the sea God lake and wrapped around the roots, turning gold.
"Check your condition for now. I have already removed the cover of my divine consciousness ", Old Tang instructed.
Tang Wulin did as he said. He could feel the strength he received from the four seals. He could also feel the wild power within the rest of the seals. His four soul bones,..
"Wait, four?", Tang Wulin checked again. He had the dreadclaw soul bone on his right arm, and the two leg bones of the lightning leopard.
But shocking him their was an additional skull bone!
"That's the soul bone from the thorn dragon. It got attached to you when it was integrating. I covered it with my own divine consciousness and helped you integrate with it along with the rest. This way, the spirit Pagoda couldn't find out", old Tang explained.
'I got three soul bones in addition to two ten-thousand-year spirit souls? This is too good. My luck is off the charts compared to my previous life!', Tang Wulin thought with excitement.
He quickly proceeded his integration with the thorn dragon, which only too ten minutes. With the nourishment he received from the Gold tree and the sea God lake, his rank improved to level 34.
Suddenly, the Tyrant dragon appeared in his spirit sea. It looked at Tang Wulin with puppy eyes, which was cute on the large dragon's face. Tang Wulin petted it as he said, " I will integrate with you next time. I need his spatial ability to use the soul bone".
Tyrant dragon nodded, but it was still sad.
"You vermin, don't you dare make such a pitiful face with my bloodline in you", Jin appeared, and he looked pissed.
The Tyrant dragon could feel the aura of Golden Dragon King from Jin and quickly kneeled down. Its face was filled with fear
Jin proceeded on lecturing the poor soul, who knows what, but Tang wulin didn't mind much. He just focused on his cultivation.
Tang Wulin could clearly feel the effect of the three new skuĺl bones. The leg bones gave him increased speed, which could be increased with soul power. If he manages to obtain a lightning skill in the future, the speed could be further improved. In addition, the left bone had the ability, lightning pulse, which could paralyze his opponent, the right leg had the ability, lightning explosion, which could cause a blast of lightning at the point of contact of his right leg.
The skull bone enhanced his spatial sense. It further added to his perception from his mental power and the purple demonic eyes.
