Douluo: I've Already Cultivated Immortality, and You Still Call Me a Title Douluo?

An earth-shattering change had taken place.

"It smells so good? What is that smell? Flowers?"

After sniffing the sudden fragrance in the air, Nine Heart Begonia Ye Lingling murmured to herself in confusion.

Beside her, upon hearing Ye Lingling's words, Dugu Yan seemed to sense something. She crossed her arms and could not help but shiver several times.

Then, she murmured in astonishment, "Th-this... isn't it midsummer? Why... why does it suddenly feel so cold?"

After sweeping her panicked, stunned gaze across the surroundings, "Xue Qinghe's" heart began pounding at an unprecedented speed.

I have... a bad feeling about this.

After coming back to his senses, Xue Qinghe stared intently at Lu Yunzhu's upright figure as that thought flashed through his mind.

Just as everyone present was baffled by the sudden change, Lu Yunzhu suddenly spoke with a smile. "Gentlemen, it's over."

The instant Lu Yunzhu's words fell, the Seventy-two Earthly Fiend Arts—Sword Technique, said to "kill unseen wherever white light rose," effortlessly severed Sword Douluo Chen Xin's right arm.

As for Yu Yuanzhen, Lu Yunzhu effortlessly inflicted grievous injuries upon him with a spell formed from the Lightning Summoning Technique and Palm Thunder.

All of this

happened incredibly fast.

By the time everyone came back to their senses, one of the two Peak Douluos had fainted, while the other had lost an arm.

At the sight, Ning Fengzhi's body and mind trembled. Just as he was about to question Lu Yunzhu about why he had struck so heavily, a medicinal pill

shot into Chen Xin's mouth with lightning speed.

The next moment, the energy within that emerald-green pill caused Chen Xin, under everyone's watchful eyes, to grow... grow back an arm!

Nearby, Lu Yunzhu also fed Yu Yuanzhen an emerald-green pill.

Under the effects and energy of that emerald-green pill, Yu Yuanzhen's injuries recovered at a visible rate.

Before long, the two Peak Douluos... slowly awakened, and they... gradually made a full recovery!

"Holy shit!"

Task Completed, Reward Obtained

An arm had been severed, yet it gradually regrew in an instant.

The body had suffered grievous injuries, yet it was recovering rapidly.

The appearance of these scenes left everyone present shocked, incredulous, and utterly awestruck.

"I... I'm not seeing things, am I? Regrowing a severed limb! This is regrowing a severed limb!"

"A cultivator's methods have... once again exceeded the limits of my understanding! He can even regrow severed limbs—this... this is terrifying!"

"Good heavens, is this really something a human can do? That's way too frightening, isn't it?"

Everyone discussed it fervently, marveling at Lu Yunzhu's godlike methods.

He had also abruptly noticed something else.

The Soul Power fluctuations around Yu Yuanzhen had, at some unknown moment, suddenly erupted... and surged dramatically!

Seeing this, as though he had recalled something, Ning Fengzhi's expression gradually turned grave and solemn.

The next moment, after a flash of inspiration crossed his mind, Ning Fengzhi's pupils constricted. He hurriedly summoned his Seven Treasures Glazed Tile Pagoda and, in the blink of an eye, boosted Yu Yuanzhen with all seven of his soul skills.

Immediately afterward, to prevent any accidents, Ning Fengzhi quickly shouted in a deep voice, "Everyone, move back! Clan Head Yu is about to break through! Everyone, move back!"

Upon hearing Ning Fengzhi's words, and confirming again and again that they had not misheard, everyone retreated a hundred meters, sensibly clearing out a suitable area.

"What's going on? Why is he... suddenly about to break through?"

Her astonished eyes filled with confusion and bewilderment, Ye Lingling muttered to herself as she asked Dugu Yan.

In response, the corners of her lips rose in a subtle curve.

With a disdainful smile appearing on her face, Dugu Yan crossed her arms over her chest and spoke smugly, "Isn't that obvious?"

"It's all because of the pill my brother gave him!"

"That pill of my brother's should be the most precious among healing pills—the 'Nine Revolutions Spring Return Pill.' This pill... is also known as 'King Yama Retreats.'"

"Simply put, even if you have only a single breath left after taking this pill, it can pull you back from death's door, let Withered Wood Meets Spring, and turn misfortune into fortune. As for King Yama, who wanted to take you away? In the end, he can only return the way he came, empty-handed."

"That is why this pill is also called 'King Yama Retreats.' Of course, calling it 'Impermanence Detours' would not be wrong either."

Listening to Dugu Yan's explanation, Ye Lingling nodded thoughtfully before saying with complete conviction, "Your brother really has a way with words. Those names are... interesting."

Having said that, Ye Lingling impatiently asked again, "Then Clan Head Yu's breakthrough in Soul Power—is that also because of this 'King Yama Retreats'?"

Dugu Yan nodded slightly.

After thinking for a moment, she explained, "The Nine Revolutions Spring Return Pill contains immense energy. Fully healing Clan Head Yu's injuries was effortless, and he likely used the remaining energy to break through the shackles that had imprisoned him for many years."

Nearby, listening to Dugu Yan and Ye Lingling's conversation, Snake Lance Douluo Yu Long was so envious his eyes practically turned red.

Take a beating, swallow a pill, and his Soul Power rose by an entire level!

This was freaking absurd beyond absurd—absurd all the way home!

If he could, Snake Lance Douluo Yu Long wanted to be this absurd too.

After all, for a Title Douluo to raise their Soul Power by one level required at least several years of arduous cultivation, while for a Peak Douluo, raising it by one level was even harder than reaching the heavens.

For that very reason, it was simply impossible for Yu Long not to envy Yu Yuanzhen, not to be jealous of Yu Yuanzhen.

Very soon, Yu Yuanzhen, who had fallen unconscious, woke up.

"Why do I feel... so comfortable?"

"And why does it feel like there's an inexhaustible, endless strength flowing through my entire body?"

"My mind feels clear and refreshed as well."

"What... happened just now?"

As Yu Yuanzhen slowly woke up, he sensed the changes within himself and murmured in confusion.

At this, Ning Fengzhi responded, "Clan Head Yu, this time, you truly turned misfortune into a blessing!"

Having said that, Ning Fengzhi explained the entire sequence of events to Yu Yuanzhen in detail.

After repeatedly confirming that he had not misheard, and sensing the genuine changes within himself several times, Yu Yuanzhen could not help but reveal a look of shocked disbelief.

He got beaten up, and... and his Soul Power rose by one level?

Good heavens, come beat me up a few more times!!!

After slowly coming back to his senses, Yu Yuanzhen stepped before Lu Yunzhu and respectfully said, "Thank you, Mr. Lu, for this great blessing!"

In response, Lu Yunzhu smiled faintly and waved his hand. "It was merely a small effort. Think nothing of it."

Beside them, Sword Douluo Chen Xin had also awakened long ago. Likewise, he had learned the full course of events.

Just like Yu Yuanzhen,
