Chapter 253: The Sea Princess Clan

"From what I know, the Star God Clam has a very high chance of producing Spirit Bones. It ranks among the top for all Spirit Beasts."

"In fact, if the method is correct, the chance of obtaining a Spirit Bone from a bivalve Spirit Beast is very high. As long as the bivalve Spirit Beast is in the process of forming a pearl and has not yet fully crystallized, and is still in an energetic state, the chance of producing a Spirit Bone is the highest."

"It's not just bivalve Spirit Beasts; for other Spirit Beasts with similar pearl-producing characteristics, if they are killed while still in the energy nurturing stage, the chance of dropping Spirit Bones is also higher than the normal ratio."

Hai Da and the others were hearing this theory for the first time. They were not questioning whether Su Wen's theory was correct, but rather were surprised that such probabilities could actually be calculated.

If it were truly calculated, then many people must have been involved, and the conclusion should be public knowledge.

"This is the result of theoretical deduction," Su Wen explained.

This information was transmitted from the War God assessment. Glancing at Fighting Heaven Douluo, Su Wen noticed that he was also unfamiliar with this theory.

In fact, Su Wen himself was close to deriving this theory through his research on Spirit Bones. However, his focus was not on the probability of obtaining Spirit Bones. His research was not aimed at extracting Spirit Bones but at understanding their properties, so he had not explored this aspect.

For Su Wen, Spirit Bones were not essential.

He had:

The Phantom Eye External Spirit Bone,

The right leg bone of the Hundred-Thousand-Year Blue Silver Emperor,

Two out of the three Spirit Bones from the Elephant Armored Clan, each less than ten thousand years old,

Four Spirit Bones from the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect,

Shi Nian's Skull Spirit Bone,

Three top-quality Spirit Bones from the Spirit Master Competition,

Tang Hao's entire collection of Spirit Bones,

And six Spirit Bones from Tang Chen's corpse, which he had not yet excavated due to lack of interest.

Su Wen counted and was surprised by the result. He had accumulated more than ten Spirit Bones, with those over ten thousand years old also reaching double digits, and even the top-quality Spirit Bones seemed to be in the double digits.

It was quite outrageous!

So, Su Wen definitely did not lack Spirit Bones and had no need to focus his research on them. His research had always been centered on the connections between Spirit Bones. With his external avatar and an ample supply of Spirit Bones, his research efficiency was quite high.

"That Star God Clam is estimated to be over fifty thousand years old. The probability of it dropping a Spirit Bone is already quite high. If the timing is right, obtaining its Spirit Bone is not impossible."

However, despite this, he did not plan to hunt it at this moment. While the possibility existed and was not insubstantial, it was still less than ten percent.

"But my goal is not its Spirit Bone; it is its Spirit Ring."

"Huh?"

Fighting Heaven Douluo and the others were once again puzzled.

"The Star God Clam is an absolutely super Spirit Beast and is auxiliary-type, which is naturally not suitable for me, but it would be very suitable for Rongrong," Su Wen said.

"Fifty thousand years old, isn't that a bit high?"

"Yes, it's quite high. Rongrong's fifth Spirit Ring can't absorb such a high age, so I need to mark it first," Su Wen explained.

This allowed Ning Rongrong to prepare over the next few years to maximize the effectiveness of the Star God Clam's Spirit Ring.

"You all handle the Pioneer's escape first. I'll be back soon and will help intercept those Sea Spirit Beasts."

"I'll go with you," Fighting Heaven Douluo said, stepping forward.

Su Wen rolled his eyes in exasperation.

"I have a space Spirit Skill and can use Teleportation. I'm not afraid of being surrounded. What will you do then? Don't hold me back!"

Fighting Heaven Douluo's expression stiffened.

"And besides, the storm is too strong; Pioneer needs a powerful guardian."

Hearing this, Fighting Heaven Douluo's expression eased slightly.

Well, I am still useful.

Hai Da and the others controlled the Pioneer to escape, while Fighting Heaven Douluo was responsible for resisting the crisis. Su Wen soared into the sky, crossing the barrier and heading directly in another direction.

He had wings glowing with a flashing cyan and purple light on his back, with sizzling electric currents and airflows flickering.

Thunder and lightning wings.

During this period, Su Wen had mastered the control of thunder attribute elements through visualization.

It could be said that the ability to manipulate heaven and earth energy through Conceptual Design had allowed Su Wen to move beyond the era where element control required a natural affinity. Now, Su Wen could use his Second Spirit Skill to control the elements as long as he had comprehended the corresponding Conceptual Design.

Su Wen's speed was extremely fast, and in this stormy environment, not only was his speed unaffected, but he also seemed to blend with the surroundings, becoming even faster.

"Mermaid."

Previously, while on the Pioneer, Su Wen had observed the types of Sea Spirit Beasts in the area with Phantom Eye. They were mermaids with the upper body of a human and the lower body of a fish tail.

However, in the sea, this mermaid tribe was known as the Sea Princess tribe. They were hailed as the sea's elves and were the most skilled in spiritual abilities among Sea Spirit Beasts.

"Humans?"

"Land Spirit Masters?"

As Su Wen approached, a large water column erupted from the sea, and atop the column was a beautiful mermaid.

Most members of the Sea Princess tribe were female and held women in high regard. Regardless of gender, they were all quite handsome.

Su Wen stopped two hundred meters in front of this mermaid.

The mermaid's Soul Power fluctuations were very strong; she was a hundred-thousand-year-old Spirit Beast among the mermaids present.

Moreover, her Spiritual Power fluctuations were even more terrifying, capable of making a Titled Douluo's expression change. Even her unconscious Spiritual Power fluctuations could probably make Spirit Masters below Spirit Saint lose consciousness.

However, Su Wen was not among them. His Spiritual Power was even stronger than that of this mermaid.

At this moment, the mermaid furrowed her brow, looking at Su Wen with confusion.

Such strong Spiritual Power.

The Soul Power fluctuations were also strong, but they didn't seem to be of a very high level.

What's up with this human Spirit Master?

The Sea Princess tribe had a good reputation in the sea and was even known to not harbor hostility towards human Spirit Masters on the Continent.

However, if you sail directly into their territory, they might expel you or even... Take action directly, leading to the destruction of your ship and loss of lives.

Not being hostile didn't mean they wouldn't take action against human Spirit Masters.

"What are you humans doing so far from the Continent in the Deep Sea?" she questioned.

"Coming this far to the Sea Princess tribe's territory, could it be that you intend to harm the Sea Princess tribe?"

Su Wen was speechless.

"We want to go to Sea God Island; we are just taking a detour from this side."

"Human, I can sense a trace of hostility from you."

"Hmph, if you scan any more of your Spiritual Power around the stars, I won't be polite!"

Su Wen looked at the ten-thousand-year-old Sea Princess in surprise.

So... childish.

"Cough, cough, we must have misunderstood. This is my first time seeing a Star God Clam, and I couldn't help but take a few more looks. After all, I am a scholar, and I can't resist observing new Spirit Beasts."
