Having settled the matters regarding the Star Dou Great Forest, everyone began discussing their seclusion plans. Ning Bei was fine and could absorb the Spirit Bone at any time.
However, it was better for Chen Xin and Gu Rong to go separately. Otherwise, if something happened while both of them were absorbing Spirit Bones, the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect would have no Titled Douluo to oversee things, making it difficult to respond.
After agreeing that Chen Xin would go into seclusion first to absorb the Spirit Bone, everyone dispersed.
Ning Bei, having traveled for two days, felt somewhat tired. He planned to wait a few days to adjust his physical condition before absorbing the Spirit Bone. After all, no one in the sect had experience absorbing a 100,000-year Spirit Bone, and who knew what the situation would be like then.
Returning home, he had just opened the door when a small milk dumpling pounced into Ning Bei's arms. It was none other than the three-year-old Ning Rongrong.
"Brother, you're finally back! I was so bored."
Ning Bei tossed Rongrong into the air, eliciting a burst of giggles from her, then hugged her and pinched her little face.
"How could you be bored? Aren't those little pets keeping you company?"
"Hmph, Mother doesn't allow me to play with them at night, so I can only count stars to fall asleep. And when you're not here, no one tells me bedtime stories."
Ning Bei looked at her amusedly and said,
"Is your brother's only purpose to tell stories?"
Having been bombarded with various fairy tales in his previous life, Ning Bei was pestered by the little girl after telling Ning Rongrong the story of Snow White once. Now, she wouldn't go to sleep without a story every night.
After that, he told the little girl stories like "Seven Brothers Save Grandpa," "Monkey Wreaks Havoc in Heaven," and "Pigsy Marries a Wife," which she listened to with rapt attention.
Hearing Ning Bei's teasing, Ning Rongrong's little mouth looked like it could hang a teapot.
"I don't care, I don't care, I want to hear a story, the story of Snow White."
Seeing that the little girl was about to start acting unreasonable, Ning Bei had no choice but to carry her to her room and put her on the bed.
"Alright, alright, I'll tell you a story, okay?"
"Great! Tell me the story of Snow White."
"Hmm? Haven't we already told that one? Today, Brother will tell you a story about a God King."
Hearing that there was a new story to listen to, Ning Rongrong asked curiously,
"What's a God King?"
Ning Bei looked at her speechlessly.
"Don't interrupt Brother, or I won't tell it."
"No, I won't interrupt Brother, just tell me quickly."
"Once upon a time, there was a big bad guy named Tang San..."
"..."
After listening for a while, Ning Rongrong looked at Ning Bei angrily.
"Brother, this Tang San is too bad! If I ever meet someone like him, I'm going to kick his butt hard!"
Hearing this, Ning Bei shuddered. This is not a good thing to kick, otherwise, wouldn't that be courting death? He then looked at the little girl earnestly.
"Rongrong, remember, if you ever meet someone named Tang San, you must not show your malice. Otherwise, like in the story Brother told, you'll be courting death. We have to deal with him secretly."
Ning Rongrong, after listening to Ning Bei's words, nodded in deep agreement.
"I understand, Brother, I'll secretly play pranks on him in the future!"
Then, the siblings revealed smiles as warm as a spring breeze.
"Heh heh heh..."
After telling Rongrong another story about Tang God King's promotion, Ning Bei saw that she had fallen asleep, quietly tucked her in, and left the room.
After exiting, Ning Bei exhaled a breath. This could be considered as helping Rongrong escape the control of that little trash. The Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect wouldn't be deeply tied to him, and he would have more room to maneuver then.
As for becoming a loyal subject of that little trash, Ning Bei had never considered it.
He couldn't trust someone who would scheme against his own daughter and son-in-law.
A few days later, after adjusting his physical condition, Ning Bei came to the secret chamber in his room. After sitting cross-legged, he took out the Saint Light Mystic Tortoise Left Arm Bone and pressed it against his left arm.
After the Spirit Bone made contact with his arm, it bloomed with a dazzling light. Ning Bei began to concentrate his mind to absorb the Spirit Bone.
Feeling that his entire arm was warm, and the pain of a broken arm that he had imagined didn't arrive, he secretly breathed a sigh of relief in his heart.
An entire day quietly passed. Ning Bei's tightly closed eyes slowly opened, a flash of brilliance passed through his eyes. He stood up, stretched, and felt his own Soul Power.
After absorbing the Spirit Ring of the Golden Leaf Sunflower, Ning Bei's Soul Power level reached level 52. This time, after absorbing the 100,000-year Spirit Bone, Ning Bei's Soul Power level was pushed to the level of 56.
This was still the result after Ning Bei suppressed it. Otherwise, his Soul Power level would be even higher.
Before he became a Soul King, he had relied on elixirs to break through several levels. After obtaining the Spirit Ring, he immediately absorbed a 100,000-year Spirit Bone, and his Soul Power surged again. Ning Bei, worried about his Soul Power being unstable, planned to spend the next half year properly solidifying his Soul Power, without cultivating too much.
Arriving at the Council Hall, Chen Xin and Ning Fengzhi were already waiting in the hall. After Chen Xin absorbed the Spirit Bone, Gu Rong also went into seclusion.
The two of them looked at him together as Ning Bei walked over.
"Bei'er, how is it?"
Ning Fengzhi was obviously asking about the Spirit Bone.
"I've already absorbed it successfully. My Soul Power level has reached level 56. Where's Bone Grandfather?"
Chen Xin smiled with relief after hearing Ning Bei's words. A 100,000-year Spirit Bone would obviously not only bring him a 4-level increase in Soul Power. Then there was only one explanation.
Ning Bei had actively suppressed the increase in Soul Power, and he greatly appreciated this grounded approach.
"I have successfully broken through to level 97."
Last time, after Chen Xin took the Primal Chaos Grass, his understanding of Sword Intent allowed him to touch the threshold of level 96. Before Ning Bei broke through to Soul Elder, he had already broken through to level 96.
Now, with the help of the 100,000-year Spirit Bone, he had smoothly reached the level of 97. It could be seen how much this Spirit Bone had helped him. The treasure of the Soul Master World was indeed well-deserved.
It should be known that, according to the timeline, under normal circumstances, Chen Xin would only break through to this level around the time the plot began, that is, when that little trash and Rongrong were around 12 years old.
A 100,000-year Spirit Bone directly saved him 10 years of hard cultivation. It should be known that after reaching level 95, it was not possible to break through by simply accumulating Soul Power. Otherwise, wouldn't those old monsters in the Spirit Hall be able to break through to level 99?
After listening to Chen Xin's words, a transparent curtain that was difficult to see with the naked eye suddenly appeared in front of Ning Bei.
"This is my Spirit Bone Skill, Wall of Radiance. It can absorb the enemy's attacks. If it doesn't reach the upper limit of defense, it can also reflect the attack back."
"Bone Grandfather, help me test the strength of the Soul Skill!"
Chen Xin smiled and nodded slightly, then used two fingers as a sword, and a sword qi struck towards the Wall of Radiance.
After the sword qi came into contact with the wall, the Wall of Radiance instantly shone brightly, with ripples flowing on it like the surface of water, obviously absorbing the sword qi and spreading the concentrated attack to the entire wall surface.
A few seconds later, the Wall of Radiance stopped emitting light, and Ning Bei controlled the wall to release the sword qi again, its power even greater than when it came.
Chen Xin looked at the sword qi rushing towards him, a flash of light in his eyes, he pinched it with one hand and crushed it in his palm.
