Little Brother, Big Sister Will Dote on You Properly

Inside a resplendent bedchamber of the Pontiff Palace, a woman clad in thin pink gauze lay upon a large bed. A breeze drifted in from outside, making her graceful figure all the more clearly visible in this secluded place, a sight beyond compare.

The sleeping woman on the bed suddenly sat upright. A lingering, hollow ringing suddenly echoed in her mind, and she immediately gave an order.

"Send word to the two elders. Have them closely monitor the talented soul masters appearing across the continent."

Just who could make even the Rakshasa God feel both delight and fear?

Still, Bibi Dong merely paid a little more attention to the matter. Her Rakshasa God Trial was what mattered most now.

Sunset Forest, Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well.

Ji Wuming withdrew the final move of his battle spear technique and felt extremely satisfied with his current strength.

Dugu Bo walked over and carefully examined the renewed Ji Wuming before him.

"Kid, though I don't know what herbs you ate, judging by your current Soul Power fluctuations, you've reached level 40, haven't you?"

"That's right, Senior. I consumed two Immortal Herbs best suited to me. Now, I only need to obtain a Soul Ring to break through to Soul Ancestor."

Breaking through to Soul Ancestor was only a minor matter to Ji Wuming. After being transformed by the Aromatic Silk Beauty and Singular Velvet Sky Chrysanthemum, his Soul Power could still surge by another five or six levels at the very least. However, since he had not yet added a Soul Ring, that additional Soul Power could not yet be displayed.

Furthermore, after evolving through the Aromatic Silk Beauty, his Blood Thunder Battle Spear could not only beastify as a Tool Martial Soul, but also granted him an innate Martial Soul domain after its evolution.

Ji Wuming named this domain Emperor Slayer. Within it, all enemy attributes decreased by 20%, while all his own attributes increased by 30%. His Blood Slaughter Qi could also transform into an endless supply of Soul Power, allowing him to fight continuously within the domain without tiring or exhausting his strength.

Although his current Emperor Slayer Domain was only slightly stronger than the Slaughter Domain that the little runt would obtain in the future,

he had to remember that a lousy spear Martial Soul with innate level-three Soul Power could possess an innate domain before becoming a Titled Douluo. That alone already put him above the vast majority of soul masters, not to mention that domains could evolve alongside a soul master's growth.

"Just as I expected, the Immortal Herbs here are indeed greatly beneficial to young people!"

Dugu Bo looked at the Storage Bag on Ji Wuming's right waist and began to regret his decision. Back then, he should never have allowed the boy to strip his Herb Garden bare. He should have kept a few plants for himself. But since he had already given his word, asking for them back now would be a breach of trust.

Seeing Dugu Bo lost in thought, Ji Wuming cast a somewhat worried glance toward the thatched hut not far away.

"Senior, shouldn't you be watching over your granddaughter? If something were to happen to Miss Dugu Yan, then..."

"No matter. Before this, I personally consumed the Earth Dragon Golden Melon. Such rare flowers and exotic herbs are exceptionally suited for snake-type Martial Souls. During this Martial Soul Evolution, not only will she feel no pain, her body will feel very comfortable."

Dugu Bo had been somewhat worried before, but after experiencing his own Martial Soul Evolution, he no longer had anything to worry about regarding Dugu Yan's evolution.

Yet after the two had exchanged only a few idle words, a roar that was neither dragon nor snake came from inside the hut. The sound seemed to pierce the heavens, thunderously loud.

Dugu Yan hurried out of the hut. Her snowy-white skin and graceful figure made hearts race, and she excitedly threw herself into Dugu Bo's arms.

"Grandfather, not only has the poison in my body been cured, but my Jade Phosphorous Serpent Martial Soul has evolved as well! Better still, my Soul Power directly rose by four levels, reaching the level-30 bottleneck."

But after sharing this good news, Dugu Yan asked in disappointment,

"But why is my Martial Soul different from your Ink Domain Poison Dragon, Grandfather?"

Before Dugu Bo could speak, Dugu Yan impatiently summoned her Martial Soul. A tawny phantom appeared behind her.

Four claws, a pair of sturdy hind legs, tawny scales covering its entire body, and two fleshy bumps bulging from its head. Though it was a Martial Soul that resembled neither snake nor dragon, it gave off an honest, sacred feeling.

"This?"

Even Dugu Bo did not understand what was happening. Why had his granddaughter's Jade Phosphorous Serpent Martial Soul only evolved halfway compared to his Jade Phosphorous Serpent Emperor? Even the color of her Martial Soul was completely different from his.

Dugu Bo turned his head toward Ji Wuming in confusion. After carefully observing the Martial Soul behind Dugu Yan, Ji Wuming came to a conclusion.

"Miss Dugu Yan, your Martial Soul was only a Jade Phosphorous Serpent, while Senior's Martial Soul is the emperor among serpents. Therefore, after evolving, yours could only become a flood dragon and cannot transform into a true dragon yet."

"A flood dragon? What kind of Martial Soul is that?"

Dugu Yan's eyes widened as she asked in confusion.

"Four claws, only hind legs, no dragon horns, and a body shaped like a serpent—such a creature is called a flood dragon. A flood dragon is the precursor to a true dragon. If it evolves once more, it can complete its transformation into a dragon."

Hearing knowledge she had never encountered before, Dugu Yan nodded slightly, feeling even more convinced of Ji Wuming's abilities.

"If you wish to complete the process of transforming into a dragon, you may try absorbing Soul Rings possessing Sub-Dragon Bloodlines in the future. As for the color of your Martial Soul, it is proof that the toxins in your body have been completely cleared away. Your Martial Soul now leans more toward the earth attribute of the Earth Dragon Golden Melon."

At those words, Dugu Bo sensed that something was wrong. His granddaughter's two Soul Rings were respectively red poison and green poison. If the toxins in her body had been completely removed, would those two Soul Rings not become useless? Dugu Bo hurriedly asked,

"If the poison is gone, then wouldn't Yanyan's First and Second Soul Skills be useless?"

"Grandfather, you're mistaken. Both my First and Second Soul Skills have changed, and they've become much more powerful too!"

Dugu Yan looked at Dugu Bo, then turned to Ji Wuming and smiled sweetly.

"Little brother, I'll have to trouble you to help big sister test them. Big sister will dote on you properly!"

"First Soul Skill, Crimson Turbid Sand Domain!"

A great mass of reddish-brown Flying Sand blasted toward Ji Wuming. Quick-eyed and swift-handed, he rapidly retreated, leaving the area enveloped by the flying sand.

"Miss Dugu Yan, I'm a year older than you. It wouldn't be good to mix up our seniority!"

"There's nothing bad about it. If you defeat me in the control domain I excel at most, I can fulfill one condition of yours, even—"

Dugu Yan stopped halfway through her sentence. By then, she was already within her First Soul Skill, the Crimson Turbid Sand Domain.

Just as he was about to swing his battle spear and use his strongest defensive Soul Skill, he suddenly abandoned the idea. His Self-Created Soul Skill was his greatest trump card and could not be exposed.

Ji Wuming used Treading Waves Mountain Sea Steps, repeatedly circling the outskirts of the Crimson Turbid Sand Domain in search of weaknesses while continuously probing the changes in Dugu Yan's subsequent Soul Skills.

"Little brother, you're about to lose!"

Seeing Ji Wuming continuously circling outside the Sand Domain and refusing to attack, Dugu Yan became somewhat angry.
