The scene was bizarre.
His spiritual perception was stretched, and it felt as though his body was being torn apart and then reassembled...
Li Yu was enveloped in light, slowly integrating the Eight Spider Lances.
Just before the fusion was about to be completed, his Martial Soul, Elemental Spirit, suddenly reacted!
It opened its eyes!
Then, slowly, it spread its wings behind its back.
After Li Yu reached the Fourth Ring Soul Master level, the wings behind his Elemental Spirit had grown into four pairs, eight wings.
As these four pairs of eight wings unfolded, they perfectly matched the Eight Spider Lances that were about to integrate into Li Yu body!
And so, Li Yu was astonished to sense that the eight spider legs behind him suddenly shattered!
The sharp pain instantly surged into his heart, flooding his brain, and he nearly fainted.
Even though the Eight Spider Lances had not fully merged into his body, its "nervous pathways" were already connected to his spirit.
Now, with the spider legs shattering, it felt no different from having his bones shattered!
He had never experienced such pain before!
But he endured it. Having absorbed The Fang of Apsorption before, he knew that despite the agony, if the transformation succeeded, it would be beneficial.
So, he gritted his teeth and endured, witnessing the changes after the Eight Spider Lances shattered.
The fractured bones, though separated into chunks, were drawn together by some mysterious force.
Finally, the eight spider legs' "bone fragments" were reformed into eight bone wings!
And between the "bone fragments," "bloodlines" climbed and intertwined, eventually seeming to grow real flesh and blood!
This process lasted for about half an hour.
When the transformation was complete, the Eight Spider Lances' eight legs had turned into eight wings!
However, these wings seemed to be somewhat ethereal, appearing semi-transparent!
The flesh and blood growth Li Yu had sensed earlier seemed to have been an illusion.
"Finally, it's over..."
Li Yu didn't linger on this, thinking that as long as he successfully absorbed it and gained strength, it was a good thing.
At that moment...

Elemental Storm: Mixed elemental power forms a hurricane, causing large-scale damage! Inside the elemental storm, elemental disorder occurs, nullifying elemental skills, while any elemental power enhances the power and extends the duration of the elemental storm.
Other Abilities:
Water and Fire Spirit Body: Immunity to water and fire damage, and a 40% boost in physical constitution.
Looking at the flashing system prompt, Li Yu felt his heart burning with excitement.
During this fusion process, the Eight Spider Lances had actually transformed into Spirit Wings because of the influence of Elemental Spirit!
This was the kind of transformation that only occurred during a god-level test of inheritance, just like when Little San underwent his divine inheritance test!
Although the transformation of the Eight Spider Lances this time was far from the one during Little San divine inheritance, it was still extraordinary!
Not to mention the Elemental Storm skill, which was immensely powerful.
Judging from the description, this was a large-area control and damage skill.
Especially with the elemental disorder and the fact that the elemental power could enhance and extend the storm's duration, this was nearly a "god-like skill!"
One could imagine that with enough elemental power, this Elemental Storm could go from a "breeze" to a "typhoon"!
"It's just unclear whether naturally occurring elemental powers, not controlled by a soul master or soul beast, count for the enhancement and duration extension..."
Though Li Yu was excited, he remained rational.
Even though it was a "god-like skill," there were still limitations, and not everything could be limitless.
If there were no limitations, it wouldn't be a "god-like skill," but rather a "destructive god-killing skill!"
Thinking about this, Li Yu excitement cooled down a bit.
He then turned his attention to the accumulated 10,000 years of free allocation years.
After a brief thought, he allocated all these years to Fang of Absorption. The system prompt flashed the moment he did:
Allocation Complete!
Fang of Absorption: 20,000 years
Extraction efficiency increased to 30%.
...
The reason for Li Yu choice was simple.
Looking at it now, the fastest way for him to increase his strength was to help Dugu Bo resolve the toxins in his body.
However, with his cultivation, this would take a considerable amount of time.
So, increasing the quality of Fang of Absorption was a natural way to speed up the process.
And as expected, after the Fang of Absorption reached 20,000 years, though there was no qualitative change, its extraction efficiency increased from 20% to 30%.
This was clearly worthwhile.
As for the soul ring's years, Li Yu wasn't in a rush.
As his soul power level increased, the number of free allocation years he would gain daily would also significantly increase. By the time he reached Title Douluo, he would earn 4,500 years of free allocation years each day.
To increase a soul ring to the 100,000-year level would only take about twenty days.
Moreover, his current soul ring pairing was already terrifying.
Before becoming "invincible," it was better to remain low-key and allocate the years to less noticeable areas to avoid attention.
This way, he could continue to increase his strength without drawing suspicion.
Looking at the now empty Free Allocation Years, Li Yu finally turned his gaze to the Magic Cube Schedule.
5/10.
This was his current progress.
He had completed the transformations for Water, Fire, Poison, Life, and Water-Fire dual elements.
For the upcoming period, his main focus could be on the transformations of other dual-element magic cubes.
Though he had only mastered four elements so far, he felt that he could now attempt to complete the Magic Cube Schedule task.
The last Dress-Up Task reward, the 'Elemental Magic Cube,' had drastically boosted his battle power.
What would he receive from the more challenging Magic Cube Schedule task?
Li Yu was eagerly anticipating it!
At this moment...
The crowd in the Soul Battle Arena watched with anticipation as Li Yu transformation neared its end.
When the fusion reached its final stage, they all saw the once-smooth fusion suddenly experience a drastic change!
The spider leg external soul bone suddenly exploded!
Was Tang Hao secretly interfering?
That was the first thought that flashed through everyone's mind.
But immediately, a faint glow appeared from within Li Yu, and the "threads" intertwined, wrapping around him to form a light cocoon!
Those with a bit of cultivation instinctively extended their spiritual energy to probe.
But Dugu Bo merely snorted coldly, and everyone immediately stopped, awkwardly smiling.
Now, the light cocoon began to dissipate...
