Soul Land: Legend of Saint Seiya

Chapter 232: The Fourth Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Bone

"Don't be careless, it's the final challenge. Let's not lose all our progress at this crucial moment!" Xiao Yu said in a serious tone.

"Logically, each challenge's guardian becomes progressively stronger. Being the last challenge, this opponent's strength will likely surpass all the previous ones. Before facing it, let's make our final adjustments and breakthroughs in this third circle."

Qian Renxue nodded in agreement. "The Griffin I fought just now had strength comparable to a level ninety-five Title Douluo. However, my Six-Winged Angel attribute severely restrained it, allowing me to kill it in one strike. If it had any attribute other than darkness and death, I wouldn't have won so easily!"

"I estimate this final opponent's strength might be on par with Sword Douluo or Tang Hao. Be extremely cautious, especially you."

Qian Renxue fixed her gaze on Huo Wu and said, "Don't just recklessly charge forward. Though your strength is top-notch among the younger generation, even that woman's meticulously trained disciple Hu Liena can't compare to you. However, the beasts and undead creatures here are comparable to veteran Title Douluo experts."

"Don't single me out. You're not the only one who can enhance their strength in the Underworld. If you have the skill, let's compete again!"

Huo Wu snorted. Although she hadn't fought the strongest guardians in the previous battles, several guardians' subordinates were exceptionally powerful, providing her with plenty of combat experience. After enduring the hellfire of the fifth prison, her flame purity had significantly increased, almost reaching the extreme. Despite having only level seventy-six soul power, her full-power attack was on par with a level ninety Title Douluo.

"Alright, bring it on!"

Qian Renxue raised an eyebrow. "Do you think that just because I haven't absorbed my eighth soul ring, with seven soul rings each, you have a chance to win?"

Huo Wu was momentarily stunned. That was indeed what she thought.

Although she witnessed Qian Renxue slay the Griffin with a single strike, without direct contact, she couldn't comprehend the Griffin's true strength.

Qian Renxue indeed possessed far superior combat power for her rank. Still, Huo Wu had fusion ring secret skills, and the combined energy of seven soul rings might not necessarily lose to Qian Renxue.

"Enough, you two. Don't repeat this scene every day!"

Xiao Yu sighed helplessly. After enduring the hellfire, Huo Wu had become quite arrogant. If it weren't for him intervening, she would have dared to fight Qian Renxue.

"Xue'er's words might not be pleasant, but her intention is to make you more vigilant and aware of safety. It's out of goodwill."

Xiao Yu grabbed Huo Wu's arm and said helplessly, "And you really can't beat her. Even if you use your fusion ring secret skill, she wouldn't need to amplify her right arm soul bone to break your attack."

Huo Wu looked at Xiao Yu skeptically, still doubtful. "You're not tricking me, are you?"

Xiao Yu smiled bitterly. "When have I ever lied to you!"

"Yes, Sister Huo Wu, don't you trust Xiao Yu's character?" Ye Lingling stepped forward, holding Huo Wu's arm. "Let's focus on our training. Getting out of here as soon as possible is the goal. This place is so boring. Don't you want to leave sooner?"

"Yes, yes, yes!!!"

Among the four, Huo Wu had the most lively personality and was the most eager to leave.

With Ye Lingling's coaxing, she no longer stubbornly opposed Qian Renxue and chose a spot rich in spiritual energy to begin training.

After persuading Huo Wu, Xiao Yu turned to another woman and sighed. "Huo Wu might act impulsively, but she has a good heart. Don't hold it against her too much!"

"Of course, I know."

Qian Renxue glanced at Xiao Yu with a playful smile at the corner of her mouth. "Who told you to be so fickle? Now you know the pain of being caught between several women. Let me warn you, this is only because Huo Wu confirmed her relationship with you before I did. If you dare to find another woman in the future, you better be ready to face the consequences."

"Uh..."

Xiao Yu felt embarrassed. It turned out that Qian Renxue's frequent clashes with Huo Wu stemmed from him. She probably didn't target Ye Lingling because of her good nature, and Qian Renxue couldn't find a suitable excuse.

"Don't worry, having you three is enough. Why would I go looking for someone else?"

Xiao Yu said with a smile. "Besides, you know who our real opponent is. With such a formidable enemy, how could I have the mind to go womanizing?"

"It better be so!"

Qian Renxue snorted lightly. "I'm going to train too."

With a few leaps, she found a suitable spot and began her training.

Xiao Yu wiped the sweat from his forehead. Handling harem conflicts was more terrifying than training. If it weren't for Ye Lingling acting as a mediator, he didn't know how many brain cells he would have lost.

He took a deep breath and released the Vast Sea Universe Cover, enveloping the three women who had already started training.

Xiao Yu also sat cross-legged but didn't immediately enter a training state. Instead, he opened the system mall.

This was an unexpected surprise. The inner cores produced by the Underworld beasts defeated by Xiao Yu and his companions could not only be absorbed as soul rings but also exchanged for diamonds in the system mall.

In the fourth circle of the eight prisons, besides the powerful guardian bosses, there were many subordinate beasts under their command. The inner cores produced by these beasts, ranging from ten thousand to a hundred thousand years, were unnecessary to absorb and were all exchanged for diamonds in the system mall.

After three years of accumulation, Xiao Yu had amassed a considerable amount of diamonds. This time, he chose to exchange for a left leg soul bone.

With a "ding" sound, after paying tens of thousands of diamonds, a bone emitting a dark glow slowly floated in mid-air.

Without hesitation, Xiao Yu channeled his soul power to guide the left leg bone towards his thigh. As soon as the soul bone touched his left leg, it transformed into countless dark streams and entered his body.

The clear streams circulated through Xiao Yu's meridians, making him feel extremely comfortable, as if all his pores had opened up. He quickly entered a meditative state.
