Although he had consumed a great deal of the Blue Lightning Tyrant Sect's cultivation resources, after obtaining his First Soul Ring from a lightning-attribute Sub-Dragon Species Soul Beast, what he gained was not Thunder Dragon Claw, but the ability to fart.

But this time, after revisiting those Soul Master Theories from the past, he planned to take a different path. He would no longer choose Sub-Dragon Species Soul Beasts, hoping to obtain a powerful Assault System Soul Skill.

Rather than farting like his First Soul Skill and becoming the subject of ridicule.

A trace of impatience flashed through Yu Luomian's eyes. This piece of trash had squandered a tremendous amount of the Blue Lightning Tyrant Sect's resources over the years, yet he was still the same.

Not only were the clansmen dissatisfied with him—even Yu Luomian himself was displeased.

But considering that the other party's father was his Eldest Brother, Yu Luomian did not reveal it in the slightest.

He sized Yu Xiaogang up and said amiably, "Xiaogang, it seems you've already broken through to Level 20. Not bad. I believe Eldest Brother will be happy for you when he emerges from seclusion. Go find Uncle Fu later. He'll hunt your Second Soul Ring for you. If there's any Soul Beast you have your eye on, you can tell him directly."

"Thank you, Second Uncle."

A flicker of delight appeared in Yu Xiaogang's eyes. He had been worrying about how to persuade the other party to hunt the non-Sub-Dragon Species Soul Beast he had chosen, so he could obtain a powerful Soul Skill.

At the same time, he muttered inwardly, Sure enough, in the entire Blue Lightning Tyrant Sect, apart from Father, only Second Uncle treats me well.

Everyone else mocks, ridicules, and sneers at me because my Martial Soul mutated.

They even complain that I occupy cultivation resources.

Little do they know that, as the Sect Master's son, all of this was mine by right.

Just Then, a lean old man in Grey Robes approached from outside the Great Hall and stopped at the entrance, waiting respectfully.

Yu Luomian glanced at the lean old man, then said to Yu Xiaogang, "Xiaogang, you may leave first."

"Yes, Second Uncle."

Yu Xiaogang left respectfully. As he passed through the doorway, he politely greeted the lean old man. "Uncle Fu."

"Young Master Xiaogang."

The old man called Uncle Fu nodded to Yu Xiaogang, then walked straight into the Great Hall and said respectfully to Yu Luomian, "Second Master, Miss left Heaven Dou City several days ago."

"With whom?" Yu Luomian knew his daughter's personality very well. Perhaps one day, because of what he owed her and her mother, she would leave him—but not now. She did not yet have the courage.

"With a commoner Soul Master named Haibodong. The two met at the Great Soul Arena," Uncle Fu answered.

Yu Luomian did not care about Haibodong's origins and instead asked, "How is his talent?"

"His Martial Soul is the extremely rare Ice Element. He is two years older than Miss, and his Soul Power has already reached Level 29."

Uncle Fu reported the results of his investigation.

"Fourteen years old and Level 29—far better than that trash. And his Martial Soul is the Ice Element, such a powerful Tool Martial Soul. He's barely worthy of Erlong. Have someone secretly protect Erlong for a while. If nothing seems wrong, withdraw them."

Although Yu Luomian was the Second-in-Command, Yu Yuanzhen spent most of his time in seclusion. Thus, the Blue Lightning Tyrant Sect was under Yu Luomian's control most of the time.

Therefore, before Uncle Fu, his fiercely loyal confidant, he did not bother hiding his disgust for Yu Xiaogang.

"What about Young Master Xiaogang's Soul Ring? He does not seem to intend to absorb a Sub-Dragon Species Soul Ring According To the family's arrangements."

Uncle Fu naturally knew this as well, but it was not something he should concern himself with.

"Let him do whatever he wants."

Yu Luomian Waved His Hand dismissively.

He was just trash. After consuming so many of the family's resources, he had only barely broken through to Level 20 at fourteen.

If Yu Luomian had received such treatment back then, he would have become a Titled Douluo long ago.

Why would he have exhausted his potential and remained stuck at Soul Douluo, unable to break through?

Gengxin City was located in the southwestern region of the Star Luo Empire.

Heaven Dou City lay in the core region of the Heaven Dou Empire. For Lin Hanye and Liu Erlong to reach it, they needed to cross the border between the two nations and traverse more than half of the Douluo Continent.

Fortunately, both of them possessed Storage Soul Tools, so they did not need to worry about carrying supplies while traveling. Not long after leaving Heaven Dou City, they purchased enough food and water in a nearby Small Town.

It was enough to last them until the next resupply point.

"Little Erlong, can you keep up?"

After leaving Heaven Dou City, the two traveled during the day and cultivated at night to increase their Soul Power.

Lin Hanye naturally did not travel at full speed, but Liu Erlong had it rough. Competitive by nature, she had gritted her teeth and persisted for several days just to keep up with Lin Hanye's pace. By now, she was already utterly exhausted in both body and mind.

"What do you think?" Liu Erlong shot Lin Hanye a speechless glance and panted, "You couldn't even hire a carriage."

Seeing Liu Erlong complain, Lin Hanye smiled and turned to look behind them. They were currently on an endless plain. Unless someone had burrowed underground, there was Absolutely No place to hide, much less follow them.

"Looks like the person secretly protecting Liu Erlong has already left."

Without even needing to guess, Lin Hanye knew that Yu Luomian had sent someone to protect Liu Erlong.

Only after confirming that the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon's lackey had left did he say to Liu Erlong, "Follow my method and attach Soul Power beneath your feet. That might make things easier for you."

As he spoke, a circle of Ice Blue radiance spread out beneath Lin Hanye's feet and rapidly extended outward. This was a wild mountain plain, so Lin Hanye naturally did not need to worry about exposing his Frozen Domain.

Liu Erlong felt a strange change appear before her eyes. First came a wave of coolness, and all the sweltering heat vanished. Then, everything around her seemed to become clearer. Her previously heavy body also felt incomparably light. The Frozen Domain could not only Slow Down The Enemy's speed, but also Disrupt The Enemy's Senses.

It could also enhance himself and his teammates.

Moreover, if Frozen Domain invaded an enemy's body, it could even suppress their Soul Power.

This was Lin Hanye's current understanding and application of Frozen Domain.

As for its other effects, he would need to complete Frozen Domain's evolution later on.

"Eh, so Soul Power could be used like this? It actually worked!"

Liu Erlong tried the method Lin Hanye had taught her and was delighted to find the results remarkably effective. With only a tiny, negligible amount of Soul Power, her speed increased dramatically.

"Although martial souls differ, the use of Soul Power ultimately follows the same principles. There are countless ways to apply it. What I just showed you was only one of them. If you can truly master it, you'll benefit from it immensely in the future."

Lin Hanye began selling her on the idea.

"Then the strange speed you displayed at the Great Soul Arena before—was that because of this too?" Liu Erlong asked curiously.

"Of course. As long as you're willing to put in the hard work, you'll be able to do the same in the future." Lin Hanye asked, "Do you still want to hire a carriage now?"

"Nope. With something this fun to do, who needs a carriage?"

Liu Erlong immediately changed her tune. She had envied Lin Hanye's skills for a long time. The thought that she might one day leap across rooftops and scale walls herself filled her with excitement.
