Douluo: Stealing Ah Yin's Soul Bone in My Youth

Reborn in the Douluo Continent, the protagonist finds himself as Shi Nian—the ill-fated cannon fodder from the original work destined to meet a tragic end. Armed with foreknowledge and a determination to defy his fate, Shi Nian pinpoints the timeline just as Shrek Academy begins making a name for itself at the Soto Grand Soul Arena. Setting his sights high, he travels to Holy Spirit Village to purloin the prized Blue Silver Emperor right leg bone and seedling. By absorbing the foundational life force of the 100,000-year soul bone and seedling, he successfully breaks through from a Level 70 Soul Saint to an 80th-tier Contra. Utilizing whale glue of varying ages—centuries, millennia, and ten millennia—he drastically reinforces his physical body in preparation for acquiring his eighth soul ring. Traveling swiftly back to the Heaven Dou Empire, he takes advantage of Dugu Bo's absence from Dugu Yan's side, employing illusions to extract the secret location of the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well from her mind, along with Dugu Bo's habitual patrol routines. Venturing into the Sunset Forest, he bypasses the lethal toxic mists by descending from the high valley peaks. Leveraging his memories from a past life, he discovers the "Looking for Autumn Water Dew," refining it to drastically elevate his spiritual power and unlocking the "Eyes of Remnant Dream" by combining it with his signature martial soul. With the vast array of flora masking the temporary absence of a single fairy herb, Dugu Bo remains none the wiser upon his return. With his foundation solidified, Shi Nian sets his sights on hunting down his ultimate eighth soul ring.
