Chapter 120: Absorbing the Complete Thunder Holy Dragon Torso Spirit Bone!
"40 Thunder Holy Dragon Spirit Bones is already a huge harvest, but…" Yu Tianlin smiled faintly. He lifted his head and swept his gaze across the countless True Dragon skeletons around him, all of them rejecting him and refusing to let him touch their Spirit Bones. "But compared to the thousands of Spirit Bones in the entire Dragon Clan Cemetery, this is less than 1/20 of the total. I'm not going to give up on the rest and be satisfied with only bringing back 40 Thunder Holy Dragon Spirit Bones."
Those other True Dragon skeletons rejected him, meaning he could not obtain their Spirit Bones.
In other words, if Yu Tianlin wanted those Spirit Bones, he had to solve the rejection problem.
Rejection ultimately came from insufficient affinity. For now, Yu Tianlin had no idea how to increase affinity, so the only solution he could think of was simple.
Endure it.
If he could withstand the energy fluctuation of rejection, then even if the skeleton tried to blast him away when he touched the Spirit Bone, he would not be forced back. He could then forcibly remove the Spirit Bone.
Normally, Yu Tianlin could not do that with his current strength.
But with the help of Thunder Holy Dragon Spirit Bones, it might be possible.
"Actually, the energy fluctuations that erupt when touching these Spirit Bones aren't that terrifying," Yu Tianlin calculated quietly. "Touching the Spirit Bones of the Holy Light Dragon and the Holy Fire Dragon only causes a slight bounce, and there's no injury at all. As for touching the Spirit Bones of the other skeletons, the energy fluctuation is about 10 times stronger. It can hurt me, but the injury isn't fatal."
"As long as I absorb these Thunder Holy Dragon Spirit Bones and greatly improve my physical attributes, then when I collect other Spirit Bones later, even if I'm rejected, I can endure the burst and forcibly take them."
That was Yu Tianlin's plan.
He might have obtained only a small portion of Spirit Bones in Dragon Valley, but he could convert them into strength immediately. Once his strength rose, he could naturally aim for more.
Having made up his mind, Yu Tianlin began choosing which Spirit Bone to absorb first.
He directly ignored the large pile of third level god Thunder Holy Dragon Spirit Bones and focused on the small pile of second level god ones.
Among the second level god Thunder Holy Dragon Spirit Bones, there were 10 pieces in total.
1 torso bone, 1 skull, 1 right arm bone, 2 left arm bones, 2 left leg bones, and 3 right leg bones.
"Among the 6 Spirit Bones a Spirit Master can absorb, the one that improves physical fitness the most is the torso bone," Yu Tianlin said after thinking for a moment. "So I'll start with the torso bone."
He picked out the only Thunder Holy Dragon torso Spirit Bone.
Under normal circumstances, a torso type Spirit Bone was actually just the sternum, not all the bones of the torso. Even a 100,000 year Spirit Bone worked that way.
But the Thunder Holy Dragon torso Spirit Bone in his hands was different.
It was extremely complete. It had reached the god level. Besides the sternum, it also included the vertebrae and ribs.
If it stopped there, it would already be shocking, but still within reason. After all, in Douluo Continent II, Huo Yuhao's 400,000 year Ice Jade Emperor Scorpion torso bone could also reach that level.
However, the truly exaggerated part of the Thunder Holy Dragon torso Spirit Bone was something else.
In addition to the complete spine, sternum, and ribs, it also carried a pair of outstretched dragon wings on its back.
That was terrifying.
It was equivalent to attaching a pair of dragon wing shaped external Spirit Bones to a complete torso Spirit Bone.
In fact, all Spirit Bones that reached the god level were like this. For example, the wind attribute right arm Spirit Bone Yu Tianlin had seen earlier included the dragon claw portion as well. If it had to be classified, then referencing the dark gold dinosaur claw bear paw bone, that dragon claw could also be considered an external Spirit Bone.
It could be described as a complete right arm Spirit Bone plus a dragon claw external Spirit Bone.
Every divine level Spirit Bone was equivalent to having an extra external Spirit Bone attached on top of its foundation.
"Begin absorption."
Yu Tianlin sat cross legged on the ground. After briefly examining the Thunder Holy Dragon torso Spirit Bone in his hand, he pressed it against his chest. He closed his eyes and used his mental power to sense it, guiding it into absorption.
Soon, the Thunder Holy Dragon torso Spirit Bone became illusory, then completely vanished. It transformed into a dense bluish purple light that wrapped around Yu Tianlin's torso, and the terrifying energy belonging to the Spirit Bone surged into his body.
As that energy poured in, the bones in Yu Tianlin's torso, his spine, sternum, and ribs, were dyed the same bluish purple. Even from the outside, it looked as if his body could be seen through, revealing the bluish purple torso bones within.
Logically speaking, absorbing such a high quality Spirit Bone should have placed enormous pressure on Yu Tianlin, causing intense pain and unbearable discomfort.
But that was not what happened.
Instead, Yu Tianlin felt unbelievably comfortable.
When he first entered the Dragon Realm and absorbed dragon clouds, he had felt an ethereal bliss. Now, as he absorbed the Thunder Holy Dragon torso Spirit Bone, he felt that same ethereal bliss again, except this time it was 10 times, even 100 times stronger.
As Yu Tianlin continued absorbing, arcs of lightning erupted from his entire body, centered on his torso. Yet those lightning bolts did not harm him. Instead, they nourished him.
Stimulated by lightning, Yu Tianlin's bones, muscles, and internal organs slowly strengthened. Even his head and limbs, which were not included in the torso Spirit Bone, were improving as well.
Absorbing Spirit Bones enhanced a Spirit Master's physical attributes in all aspects. The body part corresponding to the Spirit Bone would improve the most, while the other parts would also strengthen, only to a lesser extent.
The internal enhancement was difficult to see, but the changes to Yu Tianlin's appearance were obvious.
Wrapped in bluish purple lightning, Yu Tianlin's dragon scales, in his dragon form, began to change. Each scale shrank slightly. They were smaller, but more densely packed, and a layer of transparent glaze seemed to form over their surface, raising their defensive power.
Not only did the scales shrink, even Yu Tianlin himself looked smaller.
His original height was 1 meter. In his dragon form, he had grown to around 2.5 meters tall, and his shoulder width was close to 1 meter, giving him an imposing, brutal presence.
Now, under the stimulation of lightning, the swollen muscles on his body contracted slightly. His height dropped from about 2.2 meters to 2 meters, but his build became more proportionate.
This was not muscle atrophy.
It was strengthening.
Even though his muscles looked slimmer, they were actually more refined and denser than before, and his strength was rising sharply.
Time passed little by little.
As the Thunder Holy Dragon torso Spirit Bone was gradually absorbed, the changes in Yu Tianlin became clearer and clearer. A noble aura began to leak from his body, quiet yet overwhelming, as if it had been carved into his bones by thunder itself.
