Chapter 10: Silver King Sword Scorpion!

When Haoxin got back to his house, he stared at the palm sized jade box in his hands with a frown. While staring at the box, Haoxin couldn't help but remember Grandpa Vick's words when the old man gave him this thing.

"Years ago your father handed me this jade box and told me to either bury it or burn it. At that time I asked him 'Why don't you do it yourself and why ask me to do it?' He replied 'Because I don't have the right to do it myself.' After hearing his reply and seeing his expression I immediately knew that there was definitely something important in this box. When I asked him what was in the box, he simply replied that it once belonged to his mother and walked away."

"For my late father to want to either burn or bury this box, really makes me curious as to what's inside." Thought the brown haired boy as he continued to stare at the small jade box.

When Haoxin was about to open the small box, his book spirit within his spiritual sea suddenly reacted as his Enhanced Intuition immediately told him that he will definitely not like what was inside this box.

Sensing what his Enhanced Intuition was telling him, Haoxin quickly stopped himself from opening the small box as he showed a forced smile and thought: "Well since it's something I wont like, might as well not open it..... I'm not really in the mood for something unpleasant right now."

As Haoxin placed the small jade box into his Storage Ring Essence Tool, he was completely unaware that the contents of that small box would signify something that brought him a huge headache in the future.

Haoxin: "By the way Old Diamond could you tell me now about the Spirit Beast I'm supposed to be hunting next?"

Old Diamond: "Hmm.... Yes I believe it is time we started preparing for that shouldn't we..... very well then... The next spirit beast you will be hunting is the Silver King Sword Scorpion."

Haoxin: "So a scorpion huh?"

Old Diamond: "That's right... it is classified as an extremely rare but deadly Spirit Beast. One of the things that make it so deadly is the end of it's tail that's shaped like the blade of a silver sword."

Haoxin: "I'm guessing that's why it's named Silver King Sword Scorpion?"

Old Diamond: "Yes in fact that sword blade shaped tail end is the main reason I've chosen this spirit beast as your next target."

Hearing this Haoxin thought of something and as such couldn't help but say: "Old Diamond could it be that just like my Sea Terror Claws, that sword blade shaped tail end is also a....."

Old Diamond: "Indeed.... It is also an External Spirit Bone. Unlike most spirit beasts, the Silver King Sword Scorpion can only produce a spirit bone once it exceed's the 50,000 years cultivation age. What's more the spirit bone it possesses will always be the same type. An External Spirit Bone that takes the form of a silver sword. If it wasn't for the fact that it was an extremely rare spirit beast to encounter, I'm pretty sure that most of the spirit masters on the continent would've hunted all of the Silver Sword Scorpion species that exceeded 50,000 years for it's Spirit Bone and made it extinct long ago."

Hearing this Haoxin couldn't help but take a deep breath as he thought: "If I succeed in hunting this next Spirit Beast, doesn't that mean that I'll have.... three External Spirit Bones!"

Old Diamond: "Besides this the Silver King Sword Scorpion also possesses two powerful attributes. Metal and Poison. It uses it's metal attribute to form blades that are strong enough to cut through even the toughest of defenses. What's more the blades it creates possesses a powerful weakening effect, so if you get cut by them your body starts losing strength. The weakening effect lasts for a few minutes so it can be quite troublesome."
