Chapter 25: Return to the Family
Two days passed in a flash, and as the last green light on Lin Qinghan's body completely disappeared, the fusion was officially completed.
The fusion of the Ice Emperor Soul Bone had gone smoothly for Lin Qinghan, taking only two days. This was much shorter than the time it took for him to fuse with the Ice Emperor Soul Ring.
However, the improvement he gained from fusing with the Ice Emperor Soul Bone surprised him.
His soul power had only reached level 49, which was four levels higher. This didn't quite meet Lin Qinghan's expectations.
Although he had deliberately compressed his soul power, he had thought that, as a 400,000-year soul bone, even with some of its power sealed, it should have been able to upgrade him from level 45 directly to the bottleneck of level 50.
But Lin Qinghan was relieved after thinking it through.
Not to mention that his upgrade speed had already been quite fast, with him leveling up by almost 10 levels in a short time. It was understandable that his soul power was slowing down now.
Moreover, his plan had always been to deliberately compress his soul power around level 50 to prepare for the condensation of the soul core.
At this point, ordinary high-level Soul Saints were no match for him, so there was no need to rush in pursuing soul power.
When he obtained his first soul ring, he had gained the ability to autonomously compress his soul power due to his special martial soul.
Feeling the soul power in his body, now in a misty form and developing into a liquid, Lin Qinghan exhaled a breath of cold air and slowly opened his eyes.
However, the scene in the room at that moment made his face darken slightly.
He realized that he would need to change the external environment every time he fused something. The hotel room was covered in frost, and the bed he was sitting on had turned into an ice sculpture.
The spirit body of the Ice Emperor was naturally nowhere to be seen and must have returned to his spiritual sea.
Lin Qinghan released the Ice Jade Emperor Scorpion martial soul, controlled the temperature of the surrounding ice, and tried to save the hotel room.
But this attempt turned the surrounding ice into water.
"Well, this room is flooded now," Lin Qinghan said, covering his face. He then left a thousand gold soul coins on the bed and left the hotel immediately.
The money he left was more than enough for compensation, but he had ruined someone's room. The store owner would probably have a few words to say.
Since Lin Qinghan was rich and powerful now, he didn't care to listen to the complaints. It was better to quietly leave after leaving an amount obviously greater than the compensation needed.
The hotel where Lin Qinghan stayed was on the outskirts of Shrek City, so it didn't take long for him to leave Shrek City.
As soon as he left, Lin Qinghan used his spiritual stance to fly.
After fusing with the Ice Emperor Soul Bone, not only did his soul power and physical fitness improve, but his flying speed also increased.
After just a few takeoffs and landings, he returned to Xingluo City in a little more than a day.

Two Days Later, The Lin Family
The Lin family hadn't changed at all during Lin Qinghan's absence.
Instead, the younger generation of the family was somewhat relieved.
"Finally, he stopped," they thought. No more worries about Lin Qinghan challenging them every weekend.
When it came to sparring with Lin Qinghan, the younger generation of the Lin family didn't actually mind. Lin Qinghan always controlled his moves carefully and would never really hurt them.
The real problem was that Lin Qinghan always challenged those much older than him, some with much higher soul power levels.
Despite that, they were still defeated by him, which caused them to lose face.
However, after two months of peace, they heard that Lin Qinghan was back.
The younger generations of the Lin family felt like the sky had fallen.
But Lin Qinghan no longer had the interest in challenging them.
He had done it before out of boredom and pressure to practice.
Now, his strength had improved far beyond theirs, so it was meaningless to challenge them.
At this point, only Soul Saints could make Lin Qinghan feel even a little pressure.
Below Soul Saint, with his unreasonable third soul skill from his bioelectric martial soul, defeating anyone with fewer soul rings seemed pointless.
Lin Qinghan had been back for some time now.
As soon as he returned, he went to find his parents.
When Lin Tian and Jiang Wan saw Lin Qinghan, they naturally scolded him for being away for so long. But upon realizing he had returned unharmed, they didn't say much more.
After Lin Qinghan demonstrated his current strength, Lin Tian and Jiang Wan were even more shocked.
They could only ask him to let them know next time he went out.
The family's training plan for Lin Qinghan no longer fit his current strength, so they decided to let him train on his own.

The Next Day
After returning home, Lin Qinghan heard that his grandfather, Lin Wu, was trying to break through to level 90 to reach the Title Douluo rank.
It seemed that Lin Wu was attempting to condense his soul core, so Lin Qinghan decided to visit and observe.
He informed Lin Wu in advance and went to his grandfather's exclusive training ground.
Lin Qinghan moved quickly through the family's territory and soon arrived at Lin Wu's training ground.
This was his first time there.
As a Soul Douluo about to become a Title Douluo, Lin Wu's training ground was far larger than ordinary ones.
It had been built in a wasteland, far from the center of the family residence, likely to avoid damaging the family buildings when using powerful soul skills.
Someone from Lin Wu's side had already informed him that Lin Qinghan was coming, so Lin Wu withdrew from his training state in advance.
As Lin Qinghan entered the training ground, he saw his grandfather, Lin Wu, walking toward him.
Lin Wu was in his martial soul possession state, completely different from his usual appearance as an older man.
Not only had his hair become very bright, but his clothes were bulging with muscles on his upper body, making him look very energetic.
Eight soul rings surrounded him—two yellow, two purple, and four black—and he held a thunder axe, which made him look very domineering.
"Qinghan, I heard from your father that your strength has improved a lot. Can I see it with my own eyes?" Lin Wu asked.
As Lin Wu walked toward Lin Qinghan, his martial soul possession state was quietly lifted, and the thunder axe in his hand disappeared.
Lin Qinghan nodded. It was natural to show his strength in front of his family.
He activated his bioelectric martial soul, and four purple and black soul rings appeared around him.
"You got a soul ring?" Lin Wu was slightly confused.
Though he knew that Lin Qinghan was level 39 and close to level 40 before he left, and that the third soul ring was a ten thousand-year soul ring, it was normal for him to have obtained another ten thousand-year soul ring.
But seeing that Lin Qinghan's fourth soul ring was almost as dark black as his eighth soul ring surprised him.
However, as his grandson was a peerless genius, Lin Wu understood that there would be some secrets.
"Grandpa, do we have a target for practice?" Lin Qinghan asked.
With that, his fourth soul ring flashed, and a thunder gun appeared in his hand.
