After Yang Podi rested for about half an hour, he walked to the corpse of the Spatial Bone Dragon and began absorbing its 100,000-year spirit ring.
Having already absorbed 100,000-year spirit rings twice before, this time it was much easier compared to the Titan Python. In just 30 hours, Yang Podi completely absorbed the spirit ring, and his spirit power level reached 79. In just a few months, he could reach level 80.
However, the troublesome part was that the Spatial Bone Dragon left behind a right leg bone, which made the three of them frown.
After some thought, Yang Podi gritted his teeth and said, "Second Grandpa, Father, I'll absorb this spirit bone. After absorbing it, my spirit power should surpass level 80, and we can then look for another soul beast."
Yang Zhentian expressed some concern. "You've absorbed four 100,000-year spirit rings in just a few months. Won't this cause issues with your body?"
Yang Podi shook his head. "After absorbing this spirit ring, I feel my spirit power is very deep. There's no conflict between my twin martial souls, so there shouldn't be any problems."
The three were silent for a long time before Yang Zhentian finally spoke. "Alright, then absorb this spirit bone, but be careful about your body. Don't overexert yourself. There's still a year before Tianyue heads to Sea God Island, so don't push yourself too hard."
Yang Podi nodded and began absorbing the Spatial Bone Dragon's right leg bone. This time, it only took about 20 hours. After absorbing the spirit bone, his spirit power finally reached level 80, possibly even higher—likely at least level 81 at its peak. Only after absorbing another spirit ring would the exact level become clear.
After Yang Podi finished absorbing the spirit ring, his Second Grandpa, Yang Wushuang, said, "Let's head to the Spatial Bone Dragon's lair and rest for a while. We're all injured, and our condition isn't optimal. It's best to recover first. That location doesn't attract soul beasts and should be relatively safe."
Hearing this, both Yang Podi and Yang Zhentian agreed.
The three rested for three full days in the Spatial Bone Dragon's lair beneath the cliff until they recovered to their peak condition.
They also searched the lair but found nothing, leaving Yang Podi shaking his head in frustration. "This Spatial Bone Dragon is too lazy. Don't dragons usually love collecting treasures? Why isn't there even a single treasure here?"
Yang Podi then summarized the spirit ring and spirit bone skills obtained from the Spatial Bone Dragon.
There was no doubt that this Spatial Bone Dragon was an exceptional and incredibly powerful dragon-type soul beast. Its spirit ring and spirit bone skills were outstanding, reflecting its strongest attributes.
Spirit Ring Skill 1: Spatial Shift. This skill summons something akin to a black hole, capable of transferring the enemy's attacks. Yang Podi even discovered that it could likely transfer people and objects as well. The range of the spatial shift could reach anywhere his spiritual power could sense. If the Spatial Bone Dragon hadn't been poisoned, it wouldn't have been so easy to hunt.
Spirit Ring Skill 2: Bone Dragon Guard. This skill summons a Bone Dragon to block the enemy's attacks, serving as the ultimate physical defense.
Right Leg Bone Skill 1: Spatial Exchange. This skill allows the user to exchange positions with a person or object detected by spiritual power.
Right Leg Bone Skill 2: Bone Dragon Tail Whip. Activating this skill mimics the Spatial Bone Dragon's tail strike, delivering an extremely powerful blow equivalent to a 100,000-year Spatial Bone Dragon's tail attack.
With these four skills, Yang Podi felt his combat abilities had greatly improved. He believed he could stand a chance even against his father, perhaps even winning.
Yang Podi couldn't help but think of Bone Douluo, who was known as the most elusive Title Douluo. With these four spirit skills, Yang Podi felt he could surpass Bone Douluo in elusiveness and unpredictability.
While Yang Podi had originally mastered teleportation, it could still be detected by others and only covered short distances of a few dozen meters. However, with these spirit ring and bone skills, his grasp over spatial abilities had become more profound and unpredictable.
After resting for three days, the three left the Spatial Bone Dragon's lair to search for a new soul beast.
Yang Podi initially planned to find the Dark Devilgod Tiger, but after spending more than a month in the Star Dou Forest, the tiger was nowhere to be found.
However, their luck turned after just three days, when they encountered an exceptional metal-attribute, strength-type soul beast that Yang Podi had long desired. Upon seeing this soul beast, Yang Podi couldn't help but salivate.
The three were in a forest, observing a very formidable-looking soul beast. The creature was entirely golden—skin, fur, and even its eyes.
It was a Golden Behemoth over 20 meters tall. Its tail stood as straight as a cedar tree, its muscles were as solid as diamonds, and its bones were as sturdy as steel. Most notably, its claws seemed capable of tearing the heavens.
The only drawback was that it hadn't yet reached 100,000 years, being only about 96,000 years old. They might need to use an Explosive Soul Pill to deal with this.
Yang Wushuang spoke solemnly, "Podi, are you sure you want this Golden Behemoth? Behemoths are said to rival dragons in combat. In terms of power, they're on par with Titan Giant Apes and Dark Gold Dreadclaw Bears. This Golden Behemoth, in particular, seems to have an extraordinary bloodline. Its claws are nearing the realm of ultimate gold."
"In terms of defense, this Golden Behemoth is probably no weaker than the Spatial Bone Dragon, and in terms of attack, it might surpass Titan Giant Apes of the same level. Killing it will likely be exceptionally difficult. Once it reaches 100,000 years, it will become even more terrifying."
Yang Podi thought for a moment before replying, "Second Grandpa, we can use the spring water from the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well. It should be very effective against the Golden Behemoth."
As he spoke, Yang Podi retrieved a jade bottle containing the spring water from the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well.
The toxins in the spring water, derived from the Ice Dragon King and Fire Dragon King, might have uncertain effects on dragons, but they were highly potent against other soul beasts, especially the Behemoth, a natural enemy of dragons.
After some planning, Yang Wushuang suddenly said, "This time, give me two Explosive Soul Pills. One might not be enough for a soul beast with such a high bloodline."
Seeing Yang Podi's confusion, Yang Wushuang explained further. "While Explosive Soul Pills work on soul beasts, the higher their bloodline, the greater the energy in their bodies. Each breakthrough requires more energy. This Golden Behemoth's bloodline is too advanced; one pill might not suffice."
Over the next few days, they observed the Golden Behemoth. It proved to be a top-tier soul beast, excelling in all areas. It didn't even need to use its claws to tear apart a 30,000-year Iron Thorned Dragon; its raw strength alone was astonishing.
As for how to make the Behemoth consume the Explosive Soul Pills, they used the same method as before, hiding the pills in its food. The real challenge was poisoning it with the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well's spring water.
In the original work, Tang San used seawater and the Vast Sea Cosmic Shroud to poison the Demon Orca King's clan, but it was harder to deal with the Golden Behemoth. Their initial attempts showed that the Behemoth was quite sensitive to the spring water.
Finally, Yang Zhentian, his face resolute, said, "If poisoning doesn't work, we'll use Rainbow Venom and Bloody Mary. Worst case, we'll fight it head-on. The three of us should be able to handle this Golden Behemoth."
However, after much deliberation, Yang Podi ultimately decided to use the three types of poison on another soul beast. He especially used the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well's poison, sealed it together with the jade bottle, and placed it in the stomach of the target soul beast for the Golden Behemoth. He then knocked this soul beast unconscious and left it nearby. After all, the Golden Behemoth would likely need to feed after breaking through to the 100,000-year level.
As expected, with the two Explosive Soul Pills entering its body, the Golden Behemoth's soul power slowly began to rise. However, the speed of its breakthrough was far slower than that of the Blue Silver King back then.
Even so, this Golden Behemoth eventually broke through to the 100,000-year level.
In the core region of the Star Dou Forest, the Sky Azure Bull Python, the Titan Giant Ape, and Xiao Wu were together. Although they were more than ten kilometers away, they still sensed the birth of a 100,000-year soul beast. The Sky Azure Bull Python, in particular, was even more sensitive to the Golden Behemoth.
The Titan Giant Ape suddenly spoke in a deep voice, "Big brother, it's that Golden Behemoth. How is this possible? It actually broke through to the 100,000-year level so quickly."
The Sky Azure Bull Python seemed to have a grave expression. "A lot has happened recently. I sensed that the Spatial Bone Dragon has already died. Er Ming, Xiao Wu, you two must be careful. Don't leave the area. I fear someone is hunting 100,000-year soul beasts."
Er Ming seemed conflicted. "Big brother, should I go check on that Golden Behemoth?"
Xiao Wu, standing nearby, had a deeply conflicted look on her face, possibly due to concern about this Golden Behemoth. After all, the Golden Behemoth was the mortal enemy of Da Ming.
The Sky Azure Bull Python shook its head. "If that Golden Behemoth truly has broken through to the 100,000-year level, you wouldn't be its match. I probably wouldn't be able to defeat it either. Staying here together is the safest option."
As the Golden Behemoth completed its breakthrough to the 100,000-year level, Yang Wushuang seemed slightly conflicted. "Podi, should we strike while this Golden Behemoth has just broken through and hasn't fully adapted?"
Yang Podi shook his head. "This Golden Behemoth is too powerful. If it weren't poisoned, even if the three of us attacked together and managed to win, the price we'd pay would be enormous. It's better to keep observing and act when the poison has taken effect."
"We might need the 100,000-year soul bone now, but we have plenty of time and can afford to wait."
As Yang Podi said, in terms of attack power, this Golden Behemoth was nearly at the level of Ultimate Gold. Its offensive capabilities likely far surpassed those of the Titan Giant Ape, Er Ming. It would be too difficult to kill, and waiting for the right moment would be the wiser choice.
