The crimson spirit ring emitted a blinding light in the dark seabed, yet it failed to attract Qian Renshang's attention.
His gaze was fixed on the dazzling light at the center of the spirit ring, a light that seemed like the most brilliant star in the universe, illuminating the surrounding murky waters.
As Qian Renshang drew closer, he finally saw clearly that it was the spirit bone of the Deep Sea Demon Whale King, a creature with 990,000 years of cultivation, and it appeared to be the most precious skull!
Mysterious and intricate patterns flowed across the spirit bone, these patterns resembling the oldest runes in the world, containing endless mysteries.
Light moved across the patterns, appearing and disappearing, each flash emitting a heart-palpitating power fluctuation.
Just staring at it, Qian Renshang felt a powerful spiritual pressure wash over him, making his soul tremble.
This skull seemed to possess its own will, resisting the covetousness of the outside world.
The light it emitted was not constant; sometimes it was like a warm dawn, gentle and full of life; other times it was like a violent lightning bolt, sharp and full of destructive power.
Qian Renshang was deeply shocked: "If I could use such a divine soul bone, my path of revenge would be much smoother!"
He took a deep breath and tried to approach the mysterious soul bone agai.
Qian Renshang put away the mysterious Deep Sea Demon Whale King soul bone and quickly found a relatively safe place to absorb the soul bone on the spot to enhance his strength.
Just as he sat down, before he could even begin, a dazzling light descended from the sky. It turned out that the reward for the Sea God's Trial had arrived.
"Eighth Trial Successful: Kill the Deep Sea Demon Whale King, Reward: 100,000-Year Dark Holy Dragon Left Leg Bone and Light Holy Dragon Right Leg Bone!"
A grand voice resounded in his mind.
Qian Renshang was stunned at first, then his face lit up with joy.
He hadn't expected the reward to be so generous.
Before him shone a brilliant light, and two soul bones radiating powerful auras slowly emerged.
The left leg bone of the Dark Holy Dragon was shrouded in a mysterious dark aura, seemingly capable of devouring all light; the right leg bone of the Light Holy Dragon shone with a holy light, filled with sacred power.
Qian Renshang gazed at these three peerless soul bones, his heart brimming with boundless pride:
"With such assistance, what fear is there of not avenging my great grudge!"
He took a deep breath, calming his excited emotions, and decided to begin absorbing the soul bone of the Deep Sea Demon Whale King.
Looking at the three soul bones radiating powerful auras before him, Qian Renshang's eyes were resolute; he decided to begin absorbing the left and right leg bones, rewards from the Sea God's trial.
He regulated his breathing, grasped the left leg bone of the Dark Sacred Dragon and the right leg bone of the Light Sacred Dragon with both hands, and slowly closed his eyes.
The moment he began to guide his soul power into the soul bones, a violent force surged into his body.
The dark energy released by the left leg bone of the Dark Sacred Dragon, like a surging tide, possessed a cold and devouring nature, rampaging through his meridians.
Qian Renshang gritted his teeth, veins bulging on his forehead, struggling to control this dark power and guide it to his left leg.
At the same time, the light energy emanating from the right leg bone of the Light Sacred Dragon, like a blazing flame, was filled with purifying and burning power.
These two completely different energies collided and intertwined within his body, bringing indescribable pain.
Qian Renshang's body trembled incessantly, sweat pouring down like rain, but his will remained as firm as a rock, refusing to give up.
After a fierce struggle, Qian Renshang finally succeeded in integrating the power of the left leg bone of the Dark Sacred Dragon and the right leg bone of the Light Sacred Dragon into his own body.
He exhaled a long breath, and before he could even rest, he turned his gaze back to the skull of the Deep Sea Demon Whale King.
The moment he touched the skull, an even stronger, more ancient will assaulted his spiritual sea.
Qian Renshang felt a wave of dizziness, as if he had fallen into an endless abyss of darkness.
It was the remnant will of the Deep Sea Demon Whale King, trying to stop Qian Renshang from absorbing it.
Qian Renshang roared, unleashing his full soul power in a desperate battle against this will.
In this battle on the spiritual level, Qian Renshang faced danger time and time again, but with his tenacious willpower and the belief in revenge, he gradually gained the upper hand.
Finally, the will of the Deep Sea Demon Whale King was completely obliterated, and the power of the skull began to slowly merge into his body.
When the last trace of power had merged, Qian Renshang opened his eyes, a sharp light flashing within them, and a powerful aura emanated from him.
