Years Flew By, Rapid Growth

The two boxes contained the Nine-Rank Purple Ganoderma, which could increase Soul Power with gentle medicinal effects, and the Nine-Rank Dragon Ganoderma, which had mutated after being tainted by the dragon aura of the Ice and Fire Dragon King. Su He gave the former to Dugu Yan to make up for her shortcomings in talent, while he gifted the Nine-Rank Dragon Ganoderma to Dugu Bo, allowing him to find an opportunity for Martial Soul Evolution.

After taking them, Dugu Yan's Soul Power had reached the Level Twenty bottleneck. Reaching such a level at barely over eight years old made her a genius among geniuses. After refining the Nine-Rank Dragon Ganoderma, Dugu Bo's Soul Power not only reached Level Ninety-Three, but his Martial Soul also evolved into the Jade Scale Flood Dragon King, possessing true dragon bloodline. This made Dugu Bo completely devoted to Su He, becoming part of his true inner circle.

After distributing the chosen Immortal Herbs to the members of Spirit Hall's Golden Generation, Su He also gave Heavenly Materials and Earthly Treasures to some outstanding students of the same level. Though they were not as precious as Immortal Herbs, they were still rare cultivation treasures.

The Immortal Herb Su He chose for Xie Yue was the Eight-Petal Immortal Orchid discovered in the depths of the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well. This Immortal Grade herb had the gentlest and purest medicinal properties. Not only could it increase Soul Power, but it could also strengthen one's foundation, nourish one's essence, and remove impurities from the body. Its effects could even last until Level Seventy. It was not hard to guess that Xie Yue's Soul Power would pull far ahead of the other two.

The Immortal Herb Su He selected for Yan was the Earth Core Fire Lotus Seed from the system gift box. It was greatly beneficial to the earth attribute of the Flame Lord.

For Hu Liena, Su He chose the Spirit Cleansing Grass. It was undoubtedly the best choice for a Control-type Spirit Master who specialized in Spiritual Power.

As for why he had not given her the Full Moon Wearing Autumn Dew, it was naturally because she was Bibi Dong's disciple.

Being able to receive a spiritual treasure at the level of Heavenly Materials and Earthly Treasures was already only because Su He considered Spirit Hall as a whole.

Otherwise, based on her actions in the Original Work of stealing the position of Saintess, Su He would have wanted to kill her outright.

Su He was not exactly hostile toward Bibi Dong, but he certainly had no pleasant expression to spare her.

As for Sun Chuantao, Zhang Ping, and the others, Su He chose several Heavenly Materials and Earthly Treasures that could strengthen their foundations and compensate for their lack of talent. They accepted them with immense gratitude and acknowledged Su He as their boss.

Although Su He currently belonged to the Worship Hall faction, these talented Spirit Masters were also among Spirit Hall's most precious foundations. At the end of the day, they were Spirit Hall's talents, so building good relations with them was essential.

Su He had absolute confidence in his own abilities. In the future, Spirit Hall would surely become an unbreakable whole.

As a leader, Su He naturally had to combine kindness with authority. Only then could he make his subordinates wholeheartedly submit to him.

In addition, Su He kept the Full Moon Wearing Autumn Dew, Singular Velvet Sky Chrysanthemum, Aromatic Silk Beauty, Aromatic Silk Beauty, Narcissus Jade Bone, and the King of Flowers, Lovesick Heartbreak Red, for himself. He then reported the natural treasure land of the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well to the higher-ups of the Worship Hall.

As for Bibi Dong, he simply skipped over her. In any case, she would receive the news herself before long.

Upon hearing of such a treasure land, the Enshrined of the Worship Hall immediately had Qing Luan Enshrined bring Chrysanthemum Douluo Yue Guan to manage the Medicine Nursery. There were still many Heavenly Materials and Earthly Treasures and Immortal Grade herbs within the nursery that Su He had not taken away, making it an exceptionally precious resource for Spirit Hall.

As a Beast Martial Soul master, Qing Luan Douluo could rely on the Heavenly Materials and Earthly Treasures of the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well, along with its abundant spiritual energy. Reaching Level Ninety-Eight was within sight.

Su He had rendered great merit by discovering the treasure land and bringing back a Titled Douluo-level combatant like Dugu Bo. This made Qian Daoliu appreciate Su He even more.

Looking in the direction of the Heaven Dou Empire, Su He made up his mind. He would help Qian Renxue sweep away every obstacle. The tragedy of Spirit Hall from his previous life would never be allowed to repeat itself!

More than three years passed in the blink of an eye. Today was Su He's twelfth birthday.

Su He had shot up to one meter eighty. With golden hair, golden eyes, a handsome face, and muscular lines brimming with strength, whenever Su He walked through the streets of Spirit City, young girls would inevitably turn their heads to look at him.

Su He's Soul Power had now reached Level Thirty-Eight. Two years ago, with Dugu Bo's help, he obtained a five-thousand-year Third Spirit Ring from a Titan Vajra Ape with the bloodline of an ancient Behemoth. This rare Soul Beast could be considered a close relative of the Titan Giant Ape. It possessed a powerful innate Spirit Skill called Titan's Furious Aura, which could massively increase its own attack power for a short time and use Adamant Qi to attack opponents.

Su He had successfully inherited this innate Spirit Skill, gaining his own Third Spirit Skill—Golden Lion's Furious Aura.

Its effect was to increase his attack power by one hundred percent while locking onto his opponent and attacking with Adamant Qi. The Adamant Qi possessed a special attribute called Armor Piercing, which could ignore eighty percent of an opponent's physical defense and deal true damage in the literal sense. Combined with the blinding effect of the Second Spirit Skill, Golden Lion Blazing Light Bullet, it could quickly bring down an opponent.

As for why he had yet to consume the Singular Velvet Sky Chrysanthemum, it was because his body had not completely absorbed the medicinal effects of the two Immortal Grade herbs. Unlike the relatively gentle Full Moon Wearing Autumn Dew, the Singular Velvet Sky Chrysanthemum could not be consumed immediately after completing the Golden Body training.

Therefore, Su He waited a full three years to settle the medicinal power within his body before planning to consume the Singular Velvet Sky Chrysanthemum soon. In addition, he had not used the thirty-thousand-year Soul Bone that Golden Crocodile Douluo gave him as a gift upon becoming his disciple. Su He did not intend to rely on such external items to help him break through his Soul Power. He would save them all for the Level Forty bottleneck, allowing his Soul Power to be refined into something even more solid.

In terms of Spirit Skills, Su He had already mastered the Indestructible Golden Body with great proficiency. The duration of Awe-Inspiring Mountains and Rivers' spiritual intimidation was also constantly increasing. As for the External Soul Bone, Radiant Crystal Wings, Su He had never revealed it before outsiders.

After consuming the Immortal Grade herbs, the Golden Generation trio's Soul Power closely followed behind. Xie Yue reached Level Thirty-Five, Yan reached Level Thirty-Four, while Hu Liena lagged slightly behind at only Level Thirty-Two.

Including Su He, the four of them had already been confirmed as the core members of Spirit Hall's team for the next All-Continent Elite Spirit Master Academy Tournament eight years later. Bibi Dong appointed Su He as captain.

It was worth mentioning that Golden Crocodile Douluo had emerged from seclusion. With the aid of the Earth Dragon Golden Gourd, he had reached the peak of Level Ninety-Eight. His Golden Crocodile King Martial Soul had also gained a trace of Dragon Clan bloodline, evolving into the Golden Dragon Crocodile Emperor. With only a slight breakthrough, he could shatter the Level Ninety-Nine barrier and become Spirit Hall's second ultimate combatant.

Grandfather Mighty Lion Douluo also relied on the power of the Cockscomb Phoenix Sunflower. Not only did he successfully enter Level Ninety-Eight, but his Blazing Lion also evolved into the Red Lotus Lion King, possessing Ultimate Fire.

His ranking in the Worship Hall also rose to third place, while Azure Luan, the former Third Enshrined, became the Fourth Enshrined.

Over these three years, Su He and his dearly missed Sister Xue'er exchanged letters once or several times every month. In the most recent letter, Su He learned that the eighteen-year-old Qian Renxue had reached Level Fifty-Eight, which delighted him greatly. It seemed that in this life, with his reminders, Qian Renxue had not neglected her own strength.

With innate Level Twenty Soul Power, Qian Renxue's talent could be called the greatest on the continent.

Looking at it this way, Qin Ming's title in the Original Work as the continent's second-youngest Soul Emperor at thirty-four was nothing more than a joke.

Qian Renxue was the continent's youngest Soul Emperor powerhouse! She would also become the youngest Soul Sage, Soul Douluo, and even Titled Douluo.

Although the two had always addressed each other as siblings, neither had pierced through that layer of their relationship. Still, they had long understood each other's feelings.

Su He often teased Qian Renxue in his letters, making her blush furiously whenever she read them. Qian Renxue could also feel Su He's feelings for her. Both of them were waiting for an opportunity, a chance to pierce through the window paper between them.

Seize the chance, and big sister would become his lover sister.

At the same time, Su He naturally had not forgotten Qian Renxue when distributing the Immortal Herbs. In his most recent letter, Su He told Qian Renxue that he would prepare a special gift for her. Naturally, it was the King of Flowers—Lovesick Heartbreak Red.

With Qian Renxue's talent, she had somehow possessed only an ordinary optimal Soul Ring Configuration in the Original Work. This was something Su He could not accept at all. Su He planned to have Qian Renxue consume the King of Flowers when she reached Level Sixty. The Lovesick Heartbreak Red would improve its consumer in every aspect—physical constitution, meridian vitality, Soul Power level, cultivation speed, and every other imaginable area.

If he then asked Teacher or Grandfather to help her obtain a Soul Ring of more than sixty thousand years, Qian Renxue could gain a hundred-thousand-year Seventh Spirit Ring under such conditions. This would greatly benefit her cultivation path after becoming a Soul Sage, and the difficulty of undergoing the Divine Trial after Level Seventy would also decrease considerably.

In this life, Su He would never allow Spirit Hall's tragedy to happen again!
