As the sun dipped below the horizon, its warm glow caressed XuTian's youthful face through the carriage window.
His crystal-clear blue eyes appeared even more translucent, reflecting the hues of the setting sun.
Having concluded his cultivation session, XuTian leaned back against the comfortable cushions, observing as the carriage steadily approached the grand Wuhun City.
Ten minutes later, the grandfather and grandson arrived back at their manor.
At the same time he found that his energy of meditation went to his back and Martial soul due to which their is no way to increase soul power.
He also raised this problem to the Golden crocodile,
Xutian Asked:"Grandpa when Meditate I can not improve my soul power it is absorbed by Bulg in my back"
Golden crocodile Douluo Looked him and said:" don't worry I already find the solution of this so don't worry."
The two sat across from each other, savoring the delectable spread before them.
The crocodile, feeling relieved, set down his utensils and posed a question to XuTian.
"Tian'er, tomorrow you can start attending Wuhun Academy. It'll be beneficial for your future to make some friends," he said, seeking XuTian's opinion. If XuTian didn't wish to go to Wuhun Academy, he wouldn't impose it on him. After all, being taught by him alone would be sufficient.
However, the crocodile had his own plans for XuTian's enrollment in Wuhun Academy. Contemplating his grandson's exceptional talent and the 100,000-year-old soul bone he had prepared, his ambition began to swell.
"Good," XuTian replied with a nod. Practicing at home all the time had become rather dull. Besides, he was eager to meet the golden generation of Wuhun Academy as depicted in the original book.
XuTian nodded, it was quite boring to practice at home all the time. And he also wanted to meet the Future Pope Bibi dong the only empress and Raksha god of Douluo.
With his ambitions expanding, Xutian was no longer content to remain under Qian Daoliu's wing indefinitely. He aspired for greater independence and the opportunity to carve his own path.
After dinner, XuTian retired to his room once again, fully devoted to his night-long practice.
Soul masters had the ability to replace sleep with cultivation, although it was never as restful as actual sleep.
Removing his silver robe, Tianchen settled himself in a cross-legged position on the sofa, closing his eyes to enter his practice.
Since arriving in the Douluo Continent, the habit of falling asleep as soon as he lay on a bed persisted.
Practicing on the sofa allowed him to keep a closer eye on himself and maintain discipline.
Furthermore, with his grandfather arranging his enrollment at Wuhun Academy tomorrow, he didn't need to overthink things. His sole focus now was to rapidly improve his strength in preparation for the imminent war in twenty years.
"Boomboom"
Not long after XuTian immersed himself in his practice, a calm and rhythmic knock on the door interrupted his concentration. He promptly opened his eyes, casting a suspicious gaze towards the source of the sound.
Considering that there were only the servants and his grandfather in the entire manor, it was highly unlikely for a servant to disturb him at such a late hour. Therefore, the visitor could only be his grandfather.
This realization left XuTian puzzled. Why would his grandfather visit him so late? Could it be about the gift he mentioned earlier? But then why didn't his grandfather mention it during dinner?
With these thoughts racing through his mind, XuTian's excitement grew, though his actions showed no signs of delay.
Upon opening the heavy door, as expected, his grandfather, Golden crocodile douluo, greeted him with a smile.
No words were exchanged as the crocodile doulue waved his hand, causing the door to close on its own. Instantly, a circle of golden ripples enveloped the entire room—an impenetrable barrier that his grandfather had set up.
Sensing the lingering fluctuations in XuTian's soul power from his recent cultivation, the crocodile nodded in relief.
Perhaps I couldn't achieve my goal, but I believe Tian'er can fulfill it.
In a flash of golden light, a long wooden box resembling a sword case appeared in the crocodile's right hand, which he promptly handed over to Tianchen.
"Open it and take a look," the crocodile said with a slight smile, already envisioning the expression of surprise on his grandson's face.
Tianchen accepted the box instinctively, feeling its weight in both hands. It was heavier than he had anticipated.
Even before the Golden Crocodile spoke, Xutian had a good idea of what was inside. Besides the spirit bone, what else would his grandfather be so careful about?
He knew that given his grandfather's status, the spirit bones he had cherished would be at least 50,000 years old. Thus, it would be a great gain if he were to absorb them now. After all his bulge needed the soul bone fusion otherwise his training will delayed 2-3 years.
Carefully opening the pitch-black wooden box with both hands, only a small gap was revealed, yet Xutian was taken aback. An overwhelming aura surged out from the gap, seemingly freezing the surrounding space.
Inside the wooden box lay a shrunken version of a right leg bone. It had a golden hue, with a restrained radiance, but its strong and aggressive aura alone was enough to intimidate anyone.
Furthermore, this soul bone was remarkably intact. It was not just a fragment of a bone, but a complete soul bone that included the thigh bone.
Soul bones are categorized into three, six, and nine grades. Generally, the more complete a soul bone is and the stronger its energy fluctuation, the higher its quality and the higher the quality of the soul beast it comes from.
As the grandson of the Golden Crocodile Douluo, XuTian had the privilege of seeing spirit bones up close. However, the integrity and energy fluctuation of those spirit bones were far inferior to the one before him.
The few soul bones he had encountered in the past were all high-quality soul bones that exceeded 50,000 years.
Observing his grandfather's expression, which seemed to hold a hidden smile, XuTian couldn't help but ask, "Grandpa, is this soul bone definitely more than 50,000 years old?"
"At the very least, it is a soul bone that surpasses 70,000 years," XuTian confidently replied.
He had never considered the possibility of a hundred thousand year soul bone.
Upon hearing his answer, the crocodile angrily knocked XuTian on the head and scoffed in disdain.
"This foolish child is truly clueless."
"This is the ninth spirit ring I obtained from the one hundred thousand year old Crocodile King. Don't overthink it, absorb it quickly. Once you acquire the first spirit ring, our family's bloodline martial spirit will be fully awakened. It even possesses a suppressive effect on crocodile spirit beasts. Absorbing this soul bone will not pose any problems."
However, what crocodile douluo doesn't realize is that soul rings primarily emphasize age, while soul bones prioritize quality.
Indeed, the requirements for absorbing soul bones are generally lower compared to those for spirit rings. However, the quality of the soul bone is still crucial. If the bloodline of the soul beast that produced the soul bone is too potent, the soul master may struggle to control it, and there is a risk of the soul bone exploding.
An example of this is seen with Douluo 2and Xiaoxiao, where Xiaoxiao couldn't absorb the Dreadclaw Soul Bone from the Dark Gold Dreadclaw due to the immense power it contained.
Fortunately, Xutian doesn't face this problem. After obtaining his first spirit ring, his golden crocodile king spirit was fully awakened, and it possessed a suppressive effect on crocodile spirit beasts. Therefore, the crocodile's judgment is not incorrect.
But Xutian asked: "But grandpa you said this bone will given to my father."
Golden crocodile looked Xutian which is fillal peity to his father and said with satisfaction:"Tain'er I already discussed with him, So don't worry and hurry up and absorb."
As the warm breath infiltrated XuTian's leg from all directions, he felt a surge of energy coursing through his body. The golden soul bone on his right leg emitted a faint glow, resonating with his golden crocodile king spirit.
The energy from the hundred thousand year spirit bone merged with XuTian's own spiritual power, causing his body to undergo subtle changes. The golden scales on his right leg became more vibrant, and a faint crocodile pattern emerged, symbolizing the fusion between his martial spirit and the powerful spirit bone.
XuTian's heartbeat quickened with anticipation as he absorbed the energy from the spirit bone, knowing that this would greatly enhance his strength and propel him further on his martial journey.
Warm, comfortable without any hindrance. Tianchen even felt a faint sense of intimacy from it. Two an hour later, this 100,000-year-level top-level soul bone, which countless soul masters dream of, has become a part of Tianchen.
At the same time Xutian Found that the energy of soul bone transforming to his whole body specially to his bulge and at the same time he possed the golden crocodile Martial soul at this time energy of the soul bone also went to the back of his martial soul. which his also bulzing. At the same time soul power wrapped around whole body and Martial soul forming cocoon.
he felt warmth as he returns to Mother's womb, At the same time outside 12 hour passed, Golden crocodile looked the cocoon at much anticipation.
XuTian who is inside the cocoon suddenly opened his eyes found that he went to dark places and at the center, Their is an Golden crocodile Tranforming his back bulge and wings started to grow in his back. This process lasted some minute.
After opening his eyes the cocoon started cracking,
"cr, crr, crr"
Cocoon blasted in which xutian comes out with the sharp edge golden wings wrapped around the body, at the same tine golden crocodile with wings appered at the back of Xutian.
After carefully feeling the skills brought by the spirit bone, the smile on his face became even stronger.
In this way, one's own shortcomings can also be made up for.
Opening his eyes, XuTian, who was about to show off to his grandfather, found that the crocodile douluo protecting him with the coverring of soul power.
When seeing crocodile douluo Xutian feel warm current flowing through his heart.
Golden crocodile looked and asked:" Tian'er How do you feel now."
XuTian looked and grandfather crocodile said:" Grandpa it seems that My Martial Soul is Mutated due to Absorbing the soul ring of the Mutated golden Crocodile and due to which it has to absorbing the soul bone the required enery is provided by soul bone due to this his Buldge converted to the Wings and Soul Power transforms the back and Martail Soul."
As XuTian opened his eyes, he felt a surge of exhilaration coursing through his body. The effects of the 100,000-year-old soul bone were far beyond his expectations. Not only did it elevate his spirit power to level 15, but it also significantly enhanced his overall attributes. His overall Quality of soul power increases for example his strenghth without possesing Martials Soul around 400 catties(280 Kg Around) but when He absorbs the soul bone his strenghth almost leveling around 2500-3000 catties and After possesion Martial soul it become around 5000-6000 caties and His Overall attribute enhancement is like His Strength attribute which is his affinity around 70% It increases to around 80% Due which His Affinity increases to strenghth attribute, affinity water attribute which is around 60% increases tand similar to earth attribute 60% increases to 70%.

Recalling the ancient texts he had read in the Wuhun Temple, XuTian realized the true value of acquiring such a high-level soul bone. It was no wonder that soul masters with hundred thousand year spirit rings possessed unparalleled combat prowess.
Observing the rapid circulation of soul power within him, XuTian couldn't help but feel a sense of satisfaction. He knew that he had taken a substantial leap forward in terms of strength and potential.
And due to absorbing the soul bone and complete the tranformation He is able to open his soul sea, In which their is Soul Sea Lake where His Life like Golden crocodile Stays there. This Tranformation brought him Three Soul Skills and He also found his Strenghth amost become triple and the soul power flow inside the body become much smooth and Specially in his legs, he can feel this flow very easily, As all the meridians of the Right Leg is opened.
With the newfound power and confidence granted by the spirit bone, XuTian became even more determined to pursue his own path and break free from the control of the Qianjia family. He refused to be a mere puppet or laborer, destined to serve their interests.
The concept of refusing to work for someone else and instead creating his own destiny had become deeply ingrained in XuTian's very being. He had no intentions of being bound by the constraints of the Qian family or any other external forces.
While the Wuhun Academy was an institution for soul masters, XuTian was well aware that the true power and influence within the academy were controlled by the Qian Family.
