Chapter 15: Soul bone attached to the outside, possessed by the Poison King
After Chen Ming absorbed the soul ring, he slowly stood up. Before he could speak, he instinctively noticed that there seemed to be something related to him on the dead scorpion in front of him.
He walked behind the scorpion, reached out and touched the stiffened scorpion's tail, and subconsciously injected soul power into it.
As Chen Ming's soul power poured in, the dead scorpion tail suddenly became active and began to swallow up Chen Ming's soul power, and strangely began to draw flesh and blood from the dead emerald scorpion.
In just a few breaths, the hard shell of the Emerald Scorpion began to wither, and the flesh and blood in the body was drained. The originally huge scorpion tail began to shrink gradually, as if it was satisfied, and finally separated from the body of the Emerald Scorpion, turning into a tail that seemed to be made of emerald. The slender scorpion tail is carefully carved from green jade.
"With soul bone attached outside!"
Chen Shijie yelled, because he could finally recognize what it was, and finally felt better in his heart.
Although externally attached soul bones are very rare, and I have only seen them in books in my life, but the key point is that compared with the things that happened to my grandson before that were enough to overturn the history of soul masters, this externally attached soul bone is really Too serious.
Soul bones are the most precious treasure in the soul master world. Every time they appear, they are accompanied by bloody storms. Once known to outsiders, they will definitely cause big trouble. But the people present now are all members of the Chen family, so Chen Shijie doesn't have to worry about any exposure problems.
Just when he wanted to let Chen Ming absorb the external soul bone first, Chen Tianyun on the side stepped forward and pushed Chen Ming's arm.
"Xiao Ming, don't say anything else, first absorb the external soul bone." After saying that, without waiting for Chen Ming's reaction, Chen Tianyun pulled Chen Shijie's sleeve, and the two of them walked aside.
"Dad, let's stay away and let Xiao Ming absorb the soul bone."
"Hey, you bastard, I don't even believe your father..." Chen Shijie was so angry at Chen Tianyun's reaction that he glared at him and hit this unfilial son on the head. But he still took two steps away obediently, and then told Chen Ming from a distance.
"Xiao Ming, but your second uncle did the right thing. In the future, you must remember that when you go out, you must be careful. No, you have a hundred minds. You can't do things carelessly."
"The time when the soul master is absorbing the soul ring is the most dangerous and vulnerable time. Don't expose it to outsiders easily. If you find any treasure, you must be prepared to strike first. Even if you don't do it, you must not do it. Exposed to others.”
"The attached soul bone is a legendary treasure second only to the one hundred thousand year old soul bone. It can evolve with the soul master's cultivation, and even eventually become one hundred thousand years old. Although it cannot be passed down, it can still be passed down. It’s priceless.”
"Be extremely careful when going out to do things!"
There is no threshold for the absorption of soul bones. Even soul bones that are one hundred thousand years old can be absorbed by a first-level soul warrior. Since Chen Ming can absorb a thousand-year soul ring beyond the next level, there is definitely no way that he cannot absorb a mere externally possessed soul. There is a possibility of bone damage, so Chen Jijie is not worried about the absorption problem. He just uses this opportunity to remind Chen Ming over and over again that he must be extremely careful when doing things.
Looking at the attached soul bone in his hand, Chen Ming thought for a while whether to absorb it, and finally decided to absorb it after a moment of silence.
First, externally attached soul bones are too precious and too metaphysical. Even one of them may not appear among hundreds of ordinary soul bones. It seems that it was said in the Douluo series that there is only a one-thousandth chance of appearing. But now it doesn’t happen. Absorb, I don’t know when I will find the second piece in the future.
Secondly, this externally attached soul bone is really suitable for me. It has the same origin as my martial soul. It will be easy to evolve in the future, and the attached abilities will definitely suit me. It may even be able to further evolve my martial soul in the future. . Even if he could grab Tang San's Eight Spider Spear, the benefit to him might not be as good as this soul bone.
Third, the same value is different in the early stage and in the late stage. This externally attached soul bone itself is at the thousand-year level. It can provide a considerable physical bonus to the current self, allowing one to snowball as quickly as possible. Both the survivability and the endurance of absorbing soul rings can be improved. , it can further evolve in the future, and there will be no loss 100%.
The only drawback is that the Jade Phosphorus Scorpion cannot fly and has shortcomings in mobility...
Of course, as a time traveler, Chen Ming also knew what could make up for this problem.
"Grandpa, second uncle, I remember, I must be extremely careful when doing things in the future."
Chen Ming nodded, replied, and then sat down cross-legged again to absorb this thousand-year-old soul bone. Because the martial soul has the same origin and absorbed its soul ring, Chen Ming did not feel any hindrance when absorbing this thousand-year-level externally attached soul bone. In just a few quarters of an hour, Chen Ming completely absorbed it. absorption.
It's probably because the overlap is too high. Even after absorbing an attached soul bone, the scorpion tail on Chen Ming's back still looks the same as before, but the material looks a little more realistic and the pattern a little more complicated.
If you don't look carefully, even Chen Ming would have difficulty distinguishing the difference from the appearance.
However, the bonus of the soul bone did not disappear because the shape was not eye-catching enough. On the contrary, the bonus brought by the attached soul bone was very obvious.
The scorpion's tail actually includes his excretory system, so after losing its tail, the scorpion will be suffocated to death by its own poop. However, Douluo Dalu's martial arts is obviously not that hard-core. Chen Ming's tail actually protrudes from the tail vertebrae. What comes out is the external extension of the spine. Both perception and control are very sensitive, and the accuracy is no less than his ten fingers.
After absorbing this soul bone, Chen Ming could feel that with his spine as the core, the overall skeleton of his body had been significantly strengthened, and both his flesh, bones, and meridians had been greatly improved. Although my own martial soul has not evolved additionally, its essence has been further improved. In the future, I may be able to evolve my martial soul in disguise by stimulating the growth of the attached soul bone.
This externally attached soul bone strengthens the strength and power of his tail, and at the same time slightly enhances his toxicity. Most importantly, the soul bone also comes with a soul skill called Poison King Possession, which can strengthen him after being released. Fifty percent of all attributes and 100% of poison strength.
As for the passive ability, it has not been developed yet. It will probably be revealed after Chen Ming grows up.
As an amplifying soul skill, this is quite good. Not only does it make up for the problem that Chen Ming's two soul skills are offensive without gain, but more importantly, as Chen Ming strengthens, this soul bone skill can also be further improved.
If we have to talk about the shortcomings, it is that the Poison King's possession is very, very expensive. Relying on Chen Ming's twenty-level soul power, which is close to level twenty-three after absorbing the soul ring and soul bone, he can only maintain the Poison Emperor Possession skill for half an hour.

Moreover, Chen Ming's remaining two soul skills are also very mana-consuming. In a real fight, they may only last for a few minutes at full power.
After absorbing the external soul bone, Chen Shijie and Chen Tianyun walked up and started talking with Chen Ming. Chen Ming briefly told about his second soul skill and the abilities of the external soul bone.
After learning that Chen Ming's martial spirit had been completely replenished and changed completely, Chen Tianyun and Chen Shijie hugged each other, and the father and son couldn't help but burst into tears.
But it didn't take long for Chen Tianyun to point out the most noteworthy thing about Chen Ming.
"The added bonus of the externally attached soul bone is not small, but there is almost no change in appearance. If we didn't know that you absorbed the soul bone, we experts would not be able to detect the changes. As long as you don't take the initiative to expose it, you will There will be no problem. But your second soul ring is really too conspicuous..."
"There is no precedent on the mainland for absorbing a thousand-year soul ring without passing the second ring, but that only happens once every few hundred years, and the probability of occurrence is much smaller than those with full innate soul power. Anyway, I haven't heard of it in the past hundred years. If anyone is absorbed beyond the age limit, once it is exposed, you will either be fought over or wooed by others, or people who are jealous of you will want to eradicate you..."
"The atmosphere of Douluo Continent... is really hard to describe..." Chen Ming complained.
"There is nothing you can do. If you don't kill other people's geniuses, other people will kill your geniuses. If your family has no geniuses and is out of business, other people's geniuses will engulf you when they grow up. So everyone is also staring at other people's geniuses. I want to kill him whenever I get the chance.”
"Your grandpa, me and your second uncle are still considered human beings in Biluo City. But outside of Biluo City, there are many people who are stronger than the two of us, not to mention grabbing a lot of them. I am an old man, and at most I can If I go back and forth with a soul saint who is not strong in martial arts and soul rings, I can kill a strong one with just a few slaps."
"But we are poisoners after all, and sneak attack is our strongest way of exerting ourselves. Your current poison is about 70% of mine, which is stronger than your second uncle. Although a sneak attack will not kill a soul saint, But the Soul Emperor is still fine.”
"Rather than letting you hide and waste your talent for decades, it would be better to directly let you enter the Tiandou Royal Academy through connections. There are three Contra Education Committees plus the Tiandou royal family as a background. That is much safer than staying at home."
"When the time comes when you walk on the mainland, you will have your own background."
