Quanyi had asked Quan Li and Yun Qiong about absorbing the 20,000-year Dragon Flame Beast's right arm bone to open up the Hidden Meridians, but neither of them knew much about it.
Even though they had found the corresponding routes based on Quanyi's description,
their meridians were too solidified due to their old age, and even with the Soul Power of a Soul Douluo, they couldn't open them up at all.
Although they were a little disappointed, they didn't care too much.
From a long-term perspective, Quanyi's discovery was a significant one for the entire family.
Therefore, they weren't too attached to it.
After Quanyi explained, he looked at the Dragon Flame Beast beneath him, and an idea flashed through his mind.
"Today is truly a day of great harvest. Not only did I obtain my fourth Soul Ring, but I also learned about the special effects of the Hidden Meridians. Grandpa, we should celebrate properly next.
A 20,000-year Dragon Flame Beast, that's very rare meat, and it's a rare sub-dragon too. I've long wanted to taste what dragon meat is like."
As he spoke, Quanyi's saliva couldn't help but flow.
Ever since he tasted the meat of the Heavy Earth Boar, Quanyi only felt that the low-level Soul Beast Meat he had eaten before was bland and tasteless.
Quanyi felt like he could never go back to the way he was before.
Quan Li saw Quanyi's impatient appearance and shook his head with a smile.
"You kid, is your head full of nothing but food? Besides, who said things are over? It's too early to think about a celebration banquet. Don't get too carried away."
Quan Li reached out to stop Quanyi.
"Wait here for me."
Then, Quan Li turned around and jumped down from the high point of the corpse, disappearing from Quanyi's sight in the blink of an eye.
A minute or two later, Quan Li reappeared in front of Quanyi.
"Have you forgotten why you challenged the Dragon Flame Beast alone?"
As he spoke, Quan Li took out a long object that flickered with Scarlet Red light from his chest.
Quanyi's gaze was immediately deeply attracted to this thing, and he couldn't look away.
"Soul, Soul Bone!"
Quanyi, who was quite knowledgeable about Soul Bones, recognized it at a glance.
"That's right, this is the right arm bone produced by the Dragon Flame Beast. It's a pity it's not a Head Soul Bone that can increase mental power."
Quan Li's tone was rather critical, as if he was somewhat dissatisfied with this Soul Bone.
Compared to the right arm bone that increased physical fitness, Quan Li would have preferred the Dragon Flame Beast to produce a Head Soul Bone that could increase mental power.
Then, Quan Li casually threw the right arm bone to Quanyi.
It was as casual as throwing a stone that could be found anywhere.
"Careful."
Quanyi rushed forward and steadily caught the precious Soul Bone.
"Grandpa, every Soul Bone is crucial. Moreover, for a power-type Soul Beast like the Dragon Flame Beast, the possibility of dropping a Head Soul Bone is almost zero. I'm already very satisfied that it produced a right arm bone."
This time, in addition to obtaining a Soul Ring, Quanyi actually had some expectations for a Soul Bone.
However, apart from the 100,000-year Soul Beasts that were guaranteed to drop a Soul Bone, the probability of other Soul Beasts dropping one was pitifully low.
In order to increase the probability, Quanyi had asked Quan Li for permission to kill the Soul Beast alone before entering the forest.
The most effective way to increase the Soul Bone drop rate was to provoke the Soul Beast's resentment, and it had to be a solo kill to completely concentrate the Soul Beast's resentment on one person.
This was the Douluo Continent Soul Masters' summary and induction of the Soul Bone drop rate.
Of course, this wasn't absolute, and there were too many uncertain factors, so Quanyi didn't have too much hope for a Soul Bone.
He was just doing everything he could, holding the idea of doing his best.
But fortunately, Quanyi's luck seemed to be pretty good.
"Absorb the Soul Bone directly here." Quan Li was decisive, and he planned to have Quanyi absorb the Dragon Flame Beast's Soul Bone as soon as possible.
He looked up at the sky. Night was falling, the time when Soul Beasts were most active.
But as a Soul Douluo, Quan Li was confident in protecting Quanyi from any interference.
"Okay."
Quanyi didn't hesitate, nor did he refuse to absorb the Soul Bone.
Absorbing a Soul Ring and Soul Bone from the same Soul Beast at the same time allows the Soul Bone to exert its maximum effect. This is common knowledge in the Soul Master world.
Quanyi had no need to hesitate.
He sat down cross-legged again, intending to absorb the Soul Bone right there.
Unlike Soul Rings, Soul Bones pose no danger.
Hesitation could lead to unforeseen problems. Absorbing it directly here was the safest option, compared to waiting until he returned home.
Quanyi channeled his Soul Power into the Soul Bone and pressed it directly onto his right arm.
The Soul Bone instantly burrowed into his body.
A vigorous energy, similar to but much gentler than the Dragon Flame Beast Soul Ring energy, surged into Quanyi's body.
Quanyi began to absorb it methodically, accepting the Soul Bone's transformation of his body.
Time passed.
The sky transitioned from black to white.
Several hours later, the first rays of dawn dispelled the night's chill and darkness.
Quanyi seemed to feel the warmth of the sunlight.
He abruptly opened his eyes.
"The sun rises, its light so bright, a thousand mountains ablaze with fire."
Looking at the rising sun, Quanyi's heart swelled with heroic spirit, recalling a line of poetry from the founding emperor of the Song Dynasty in his past life.
The poem contained no elaborate words or rhetoric.
But it displayed his ambition and imperial aura.
And this poem inexplicably resonated with Quanyi's current state of mind.
It wasn't that Quanyi was arrogant, but the increase in strength had caused a tremendous transformation deep within him.
Invincible.
Unstoppable.
With the improvement of his strength, the domineering and arrogant aura that naturally emanated from Quanyi burst forth completely at this moment.
Quan Li also felt the soaring aura emanating from Quanyi.
This was a moment unique to Quanyi.
Quan Li watched Quanyi with a smile.
At this moment, in his eyes, Quanyi was more dazzling than the rising sun.
At the same time, he felt a slight sense of relief in his heart.
To be able to participate in Quanyi's growth before he completely became a powerhouse.
After expressing the joy in his heart, Quanyi returned to his previous demeanor.
"Now we can finally have a celebration feast." Quanyi turned and smiled at Quan Li.
"What kind of increase did that Soul Bone give you? What level are you now?" Quan Li was most eager to know how many levels Quanyi would gain from the Soul Bone.
Quanyi smiled slightly and softly uttered a number.
"Forty-ninth level."
"That Soul Bone increased my Soul Power by four levels. Now I only need to level up once more to obtain my fifth Soul Ring."
Although Quan Li had some speculation in his heart, after truly hearing this incredible number, his heart was inevitably stirred.
"Eleven years old, level forty-nine, no, eleven years old, level fifty. Hahaha, an eleven-year-old Soul King, unheard of, truly unheard of."
Quanyi had just passed his eleventh birthday not long ago, with about ten months to go.
But according to Quanyi's level-up speed, he could definitely reach that final level within seven or eight months.
Therefore, Quan Li said Quanyi was an eleven-year-old Soul King.
Reminded by Quan Li, Quanyi then realized that a lot of time had passed.
According to the calendar, the school start date had long passed.
Recently, busy with finding Soul Rings, Quanyi had completely forgotten about this matter.
"Grandpa, the attached four-level increase is the most basic effect; the Soul Bone's primary function is still to improve physical fitness.
With my current physical fitness, I am fully capable of competing with a Soul Saint."
