Chapter 46: Exchange, Million-Year Soul Bone!

Dai Xiyu smiled silently, turned around, and walked toward the door.

Shrek Academy, Nuoding City, the Spirit Hall, and Tiandou City — he would eventually have to go to all of them.

After all, these places are the true gathering grounds of the children of fortune.

For now there's no rush; with Zhu Zhuqing, this little fortune-rich girl, he can first develop steadily for a while.

Dai Weisi's death did not cause major upheaval in the Star Luo Empire.

Over the following period, Dai Xiyu found time to secretly eliminate some threats detrimental to himself.

The maid responsible for administering the drug, the informant inside the duke's mansion, and the coachman who had been bribed by Dai Weisi and then bribed back by Dai Xiyu.

And finally, Qin Yang and his useless father.

The Star Luo Empire now had only Dai Xiyu as a prince, the sole heir of the royal line, basically confirming his right to inherit the crown prince title.

Consequently, the authority he could wield was far greater than before.

Dealing with these people didn't take much effort.

As the matters concluded, Dai Xiyu returned to his previous life.

The Royal Elementary Academy opened for the term; Zhu Zhuqing successfully advanced to first year of the elementary division, while Dai Xiyu entered his fourth year.

With the temptation of a million-year soul bone present, Dai Xiyu became more diligent in gathering fortune, almost whenever he had free time he would go spend it with Zhu Zhuqing.

Under these circumstances, the fortune Dai Xiyu naturally gained in a full day had already reached seventy thousand.

In the blink of an eye.

Half a year passed.

The end of the first semester of the fourth year was approaching.

That weekend, Dai Xiyu rarely parted from Zhu Zhuqing; he alone took a carriage to Starlight Forest.

He stepped down from the carriage, saw the familiar forest gate ahead, and Dai Xiyu let out a breath.

After half a year of growth, Dai Xiyu now looked a bit taller.

His height had reached 1.75 meters, making him look nothing like a nine-year-old.

If someone didn't know him, seeing Dai Xiyu, they'd likely believe he was fifteen or sixteen.

It was now early winter, the temperature had turned cool, and autumn winds had piled fallen leaves against the walls.

The Star Luo Empire lies in the southern part of the continent, where the temperature isn't especially low.

By contrast, the Tian Dou Empire in the north is much colder; it's said to be already covered in cleared snow at this time.

Exhaling a puff of white vapor, Dai Xiyu stepped forward and presented his token.

The guards were very familiar with this second prince — or rather, the sole prince — so they didn't need to inspect the token closely, simply opening the gate respectfully.

As the sole prince of the Star Luo Empire at present, Dai Xiyu's status could truly be described as being beneath one person and above ten thousand.

After entering Starlight Forest, Dai Xiyu walked inward for a while and, according to memory, found a huge tree thick enough for four people to encircle.

At the base of the tree's roots, after feeling around for a moment, Dai Xiyu caught hold of an iron ring and pulled it up forcefully.

A stone slab was opened, revealing a passage beneath.

Looking left and right, seeing no soul beasts or people, Dai Xiyu descended and casually closed the stone slab behind him.

The passage led into the interior of that giant tree, which was very spacious.

This hidden tree hollow was something Dai Xiyu had stumbled upon by chance.

Not only was it located on the outskirts with no powerful soul beasts to disturb it, but it was also sufficiently sturdy.

Leaning against the wall of the tree hollow, Dai Xiyu focused his mind, and the interface of the Luck Store appeared before his eyes.

【Fortune Balance: 21542103】

After half a year of accumulation, the fortune balance had already reached twenty million.

Actually, half a month earlier, the fortune had already been sufficient for twenty million.

However, Dai Xiyu planned to first break through to rank forty, then conveniently absorb a soul bone, so he had not yet redeemed anything.

Today, the long-awaited moment finally arrived.

Rubbing his hands together, Dai Xiyu focused his spirit and chose to redeem a Divinely Bestowed Soul Ring.

【Successfully Purchased Divinely Bestowed Soul Ring, Fortune -1500000】

After the prompt refreshed, Dai Xiyu took out this familiar sphere from the warehouse.

Infusing soul power, he absorbed it directly.

Now Dai Xiyu, compared to when he last absorbed the god-given soul ring, is stronger by more than double.

Moreover, he hasn't broken through in half a year, and now his soul power has accumulated a lot, all of which is released this time.

The years of the god-given soul ring grew with time, instantly surpassing ten years, a hundred years, a thousand years, reaching ten thousand years.

Last time, the god-given soul ring stalled at ten thousand years.

But this time, there was no sign of stagnation whatsoever; it continued to grow rapidly.

Ten thousand years, twenty thousand years, thirty thousand years.

Thirty-five thousand years, forty thousand years, forty-five thousand years.

It continued until fifty thousand years, when Dai Xiyu finally could not endure any longer.

Ultimately, this fourth soul ring successfully settled at fifty thousand years.

Opening his eyes again, he didn't know how much time had passed.

Dai Xiyu released his martial soul; the soul rings beneath his feet rose, illuminating the dark tree hollow.

Yellow, purple, black, black.

Four gorgeous soul rings swirled beneath his feet, displaying the strength of Dai Xiyu, a four-ring Soul Ancestor.

At the same time, the effect of the fourth soul skill from that soul ring automatically appeared in Dai Xiyu's mind.

Upon releasing this fourth soul skill, his body leaps into the air, and his soul power forms a huge 'kill' character before him, which is imprinted on the enemy to inflict massive damage.

Immediately, Dai Xiyu recalled the name of this soul skill in his mind.

"White Tiger Annihilation Kill."

This soul skill, in the original work, is Dai Mubai's sixth soul skill and also one of his most powerful attack methods.

God-given soul rings automatically grant a soul skill suitable for the martial soul within an appropriate year range.

Moreover, the soul skills originally possessed by Dai Mubai in that world line are basically the most suitable for the White Tiger martial soul.

Therefore, after using the god-given soul ring, the soul skill Dai Xiyu obtained basically coincides with those of Dai Mubai, Dai Weisi, and even the Star Luo Emperor.

After understanding the function of this fourth soul skill, Dai Xiyu sensed his own soul power.

"Forty-fourth rank... Half a year's accumulation, plus the boost from the fifty-thousand-year soul ring, after breaking through he directly jumped three ranks, which is not little."

Dai Xiyu is still quite satisfied with the extent of his soul power increase.

After retracting his martial soul, Dai Xiyu opened the fortune store again.

At this moment, there was only one hour left until the store's refresh time.

Without any hesitation, he moved his thought and directly chose to exchange for a million-year soul bone.
