Of course, they knew what that meant.
Soul bones were rarer than spirit souls—treasures that symbolized the apex of a soul master's fortune. They enhanced the body directly and granted unique soul skills, independent of cultivation limits.
The bone in Ray's hand was unmistakably a right-hand soul bone.
But confusion quickly followed the excitement.
"A soul bone… here?" Ray frowned deeply. "This is the spirit ascension platform. Isn't this supposed to be an illusory world?"
The bone felt real. Alive.
So why… had it appeared here at all?
Lily shook her head gently. "No. As far as I know, the spirit ascension platform isn't a purely illusory world. It's a hybrid of illusion and reality. The elementary level is the least 'real,' but that doesn't mean it's fake. Otherwise, how would we be able to absorb spirit energy?"
She paused, then added calmly, "Since a soul bone appeared, that means the beast we just killed was a guardian of the spirit ascension platform."
