Chapter 76: Fusion of Human‑Faced Demon Spider Soul Bone

Yu Tianyun kept torturing the Human-faced Demon Spider like this, as time passed second by second.

Yu Tianyun estimated in their mind that about half an hour had passed, and the Human-faced Demon Spider finally could no longer endure such painful torment.

They saw that on its badly broken body, a pale violet Soul Ring slowly coalesced.

The ground at this moment was already a wreck; everywhere lay nauseating ink‑green slime, which was the Human-faced Demon Spider's blood, emitting a sharp, fetid stench.

The ground was littered with scattered black‑purple broken spider legs, lying haphazardly like ruins after a raging wind.

The surface was further riddled with pitted holes, as if bombarded by countless shells.

These successive scenes of carnage are ironclad proof of Yu Tianyun's slaughter of the Human-faced Demon Spider! Every mark recounts the cruel, fierce, one‑sided battle that just occurred, sending chills down one's spine.

Yu Tianyun lifted their head, activated the ice‑fire dual pupils, glanced around, saw no one, and decided to begin the research project on arthropod dissection.

Yu Tianyun approached, extended a sharp Dragon Claw, pried open the Human-faced Demon Spider's already shattered carapace, and the ice‑fire dual pupils meticulously scanned the corpse inside and out, leaving no spot unchecked, yet they did not find what they sought.

Yu Tianyun's complexion immediately fell, and they muttered resentfully, "Could it really be just a chance belonging to Little Skinny San?"

Yu Tianyun felt the effort was in vain and thought it would be better to enjoy life with three wives in Soto City!

When Yu Tianyun's gaze caught the floating pale violet Soul Ring on the Human-faced Demon Spider's corpse, it seemed especially glaring! "Hmph!" In a fit of anger, Yu Tianyun swung a Dragon Claw, generating a strong gust that blew it away! "Hm?" As the Soul Ring vanished, Yu Tianyun keenly sensed a trace of Soul Power Fluctuation on the corpse. Looking closely, the once lifeless body emitted a faint glow; Yu Tianyun immediately activated the ice‑fire dual pupils to examine, discovering Soul Power flowing from various parts toward the spider's spine, as if all remaining energy were being gathered.

About half a quarter‑hour later, a faint eerie purple sheen appeared within the corpse.

Yu Tianyun extended a Dragon Claw and probed inside, feeling a hard object, and promptly extracted it.

It was a bone, about the size of a human head, composed of eight spiny bone spikes; upon close inspection, it resembled the Human-faced Demon Spider's eight spider legs.

Yu Tianyun exhaled, steadied their mind, and said, "This bone must be the External Attached Soul Bone Eight‑Spider Spear!"

"As for why it formed this way, I don't understand; I recall Tang San's Eight‑Spider Spear formed automatically after the Soul Ring entered the body."

"Anyway, this soul bone is now mine! To avoid endless trouble, I'll absorb it now; once fully merged, Tang San will have no chance left."

"Moreover, no one is around; I guess Dragon Lord Snake Madam is still far from here. With my physique, absorbing a two‑thousand‑year soul bone won't take long!"

Yu Tianyun carefully examined the surroundings again, confirmed nothing unusual, then sat cross‑legged on the ground, took the soul bone in one hand, pressed it to their back, and began absorption.

Yu Tianyun's External Attached Soul Bone transformed into a violet stream of light, slowly entering their spine; shortly after, their hand was empty. Throughout the process, Yu Tianyun remained fully conscious, but merging the bone gave little sensation—just a slight itch, as if a brain were growing—no, a limb was sprouting. Though Yu Tianyun had never experienced this feeling, they were convinced it resembled the start of limb growth! Originally Yu Tianyun hadn't planned to absorb the Eight‑Spider Spear, since its property didn't match their Blue Electric Tyrannosaur Weapon Soul, but after emerging from Dragon Valley, Yu Tianyun no longer clung to attribute compatibility when choosing soul bones.

After the baptism of various‑attribute dragon souls and dragon clouds, Yu Tianyun now has a high affinity for any attribute! Soul bones are naturally absorbed based on usefulness. The Eight‑Spider Spear and A Yin's right leg bone don't match Yu Tianyun's attributes, yet the skills of these two soul bones are extremely practical.

A Yin's healing soul skill rivals carrying an upgraded Ye Lingling; setting that aside, focus on the Eight‑Spider Spear.

The ceiling of this soul bone is remarkably high; it can even evolve into a super artifact. Of course, such evolution is extremely difficult, but the ceiling is certainly high!

The Eight‑Spider Spear's skill is also quite practical; in some respects it surpasses the Dark Golden Terror Claw, as it can poison and devour an enemy's soul power and flesh, used to restore one's own soul power or even accelerate cultivation, akin to a low‑tier Northern Sea Divine Skill! If one also absorbs the Evil God Pearl of the Dark Demon Evil God Tiger, it would definitely rival, perhaps surpass, the Northern Sea Divine Skill.

Of course, such flesh‑devouring skill should not be used recklessly; on one hand, absorbing other beings' energy for cultivation can destabilize one's foundation and drastically alter temperament; on the other, it may label one as an Evil Soul Master, becoming a continental public enemy.

Time drifted slowly, yet not long—about a quarter‑hour—Yu Tianyun finally felt they had fully absorbed the Eight‑Spider Spear.

"Pfft!" a sound, and a pair of massive Dragon Wings sprouted from Yu Tianyun's back!

Indeed! Dragon Wings! Similar to the wings produced by Dragon Transformation, except each wing now bears five sharp blue‑purple bone spikes protruding from the edge, like five finger bones! The wings also contain numerous barely perceptible dark‑purple veins.

Yu Tianyun was extremely astonished! They didn't understand the situation, feeling as if the Eight‑Spider Spear had been assimilated.

Thinking of this, Yu Tianyun instantly became convinced that, because their bloodline rank far exceeds the Human-faced Demon Spider's, the spider's soul bone was reshaped by their body to better fit their own structure!

Yu Tianyun raised their right hand, circulated soul power, and released a Dark Golden Terror Claw. Observing carefully, they thought, "Indeed! The shape of the Dark Golden Terror Claw now resembles a Dragon Claw more; I recall it used to look like a bear claw. This must be due to my abundant draconic bloodline, allowing the External Attached Soul Bone's shape to be reshaped to suit my body! That's fine—Dragon Wings are clearly more attractive than the Eight‑Spider Spear, and they're less conspicuous, so others won't easily suspect the External Attached Soul Bone."

Although the result was somewhat unexpected, Yu Tianyun was even more satisfied!

Immediately, Yu Tianyun was eager to test the newly acquired soul bone; with a gentle flap, the Dragon Wings lifted them into the air, soaring up and down, twisting and turning.

Then Yu Tianyun flew toward a towering tree three meters in diameter; a sharp "screech" sounded as Yu Tianyun flashed past.

About three to four seconds later, a creaking sound rang, followed by a booming crash as the massive tree collapsed! Its cross‑section was mirror‑smooth, but the stump instantly began corroding into pits.

After testing, Yu Tianyun was very satisfied; the strength and flight speed of the Dragon Wings not only improved but also became much sharper! Moreover, they now carried the Human-faced Demon Spider's potent toxin, which delighted Yu Tianyun, making the smile at the corner of their mouth impossible to suppress! As for the devouring ability, there is no chance to test it now, but Yu Tianyun is not overly eager; after all, there will be future opportunities, and they don't intend to use this ability frequently, considering it a…

Just as Yu Tianyun was elated, three figures rushed in from the distant woods; Yu Tianyun naturally noticed them, raised an eyebrow, and thought, "The legendary Dragon‑Snake couple, and Meng Yiran, have indeed arrived—though late, they are here! Still, it's best not to reveal my strength. Even with my grandfather's level‑98 soul power plus my cheap father‑in‑law's assistance, I could handle a few moves if Qian Daoliu came, but when there's no benefit, it's better to stay low‑key."
