Parents' Ambitions Rekindled

"Hahaha, from today onwards, I Qing Tianfeng, am also Soul King!"

When the fifth Soul Ring appeared around Qing Tianfeng, he could no longer suppress a smile.

After a while, Qing Mu saw that Qing Tianfeng had finally calmed down, and then said, "Congratulations, Dad, on becoming Soul King. But we should go and hunt for Soul Ring for Mom."

"I'm sorry, I lost my composure."

Upon hearing this, Qing Tianfeng nodded, and then continued his hunt for Soul Ring with Qing Mu and the others.

Three days later, Qing Mu found a Radiant Narcissus Flower that was 25,000 years old, beat it half to death, and then handed it over to Xu Yao.

Another half day passed, and Xu Yao successfully absorbed the Soul Ring, her Soul Power Level also soaring to level fifty-six.

Upon seeing her level jump six levels to become a level fifty-six Soul King, Xu Yao couldn't help but feel somewhat dazed.

This rate of improvement is simply too fast. What would normally take several years to reach even after Martial Soul Evolution has been achieved in just an instant.

"Mom, what's wrong?"

Qing Mu noticed that Xu Yao's expression was a little strange and asked her about it.

Hearing Qing Mu's words, Xu Yao came back to her senses and said, "This improvement speed is too fast, Mom is a little not used to it."

"There's no need to worry about that, Mom. You first consumed a large amount of Whale Rubber, which improved your physical condition, and then you absorbed Hundred Thousand Year Soul Bone and a 25,000-year-old Soul Ring. Breaking through to level six is perfectly normal."

Upon hearing that this was Xu Yao's concern, Qing Mu immediately explained.

Upon hearing this, Xu Yao nodded in agreement. After all, it was Hundred Thousand Year Soul Bone, a legendary treasure in the Soul Master World. It was only natural that it would have such an effect.

"Oh, right, this is for you!"

At this moment, Qing Mu seemed to have thought of something, took out a jade bottle from his storage ring, and put it into Xu Yao's hand.

Xu Yao took the jade bottle, opened the mouth of the bottle, and instantly a rich medicinal fragrance wafted out.

After inhaling the medicinal fragrance, Xu Yao felt her Soul Power circulating much faster. She immediately looked at Qing Mu with shock. "Mu'er, this is...?"

"This is Soul-Raising Pill. One pill can increase the Soul Power of Spirit Master below the Soul Saint level by one level. However, each person can only take three pills in their lifetime."

As Qing Mu explained, she said to the two of them, "There are six Soul-Raising Pill in this jade bottle, enough for both of you. When you use them is up to you."

"What? One of these can increase Spirit Master's Soul Power by one level?"

Upon hearing Qing Mu's explanation, both Xu Yao and Qing Tianfeng widened their eyes.

It's important to know that it becomes very difficult for Spirit Master to level up after reaching the Soul King; many Soul King may not even be able to increase their Soul Power by one level in a year.

However, this so-called Soul-Raising Pill can help Spirit Master increase their Soul Power by one level, and three pills can be used. In a sense, this is equivalent to saving Spirit Master three years of arduous training.

Moreover, saving on arduous training is secondary; more importantly, it can raise the upper limit of Spirit Master's potential.

Many Spirit Master have limited talent and get stuck at levels like 49, 59, or 69, finding it difficult to advance. At this point, a Soul-Raising Pill can help them break through their limits and enter a new level.

Thinking of this, Xu Yao and Qing Tianfeng couldn't help but swallow hard. If such a thing could be mass-produced, the shock it would cause would even surpass that of Hundred Thousand Year Soul Bone.

After all, even the best Hundred Thousand Year Soul Bone can only be enjoyed by one person, while the Soul-Raising Pill can benefit many more Spirit Master.

Seemingly anticipating their thoughts, Qing Mu suddenly spoke up, "The materials required for this Soul-Raising Pill are extremely rare, and the current production is very limited, with little to no future increase. Therefore, you must never let anyone else know about it, or it may bring you trouble."

"Don't worry, Mu'er, we're not newcomers to the Soul Master World anymore, we definitely won't tell anyone."

Upon hearing this, Xu Yao and Qing Tianfeng immediately patted their chests and assured each other.

Qing Mu nodded slightly. Although his current strength was not bad, it was not yet at the level of dominating the entire world, so it was better to keep a low profile.

"Mom and Dad, what are your plans for the future? Are you going to stay in your fiefdom, or do you have other plans?"

Soul King are already quite rare. Even in a power like an empire, there are only a handful of strong individuals of that caliber. Let alone being a mere viscount of a kingdom, they would be more than qualified to be marquises.

It should be noted that the strongest Combat Power in the top-tier forces on the Douluo Continent are only one or two Soul Douluo, and the vast majority of these Soul Douluo are stationed in the two great empires.

In this situation, any Soul Douluo would be an absolute VIP in a small kingdom like Hagens. If they were willing to join, they would be pillars of support, and the king would spare no expense to win them over.

While the situation of Soul Saint isn't quite that outrageous, they are still among the absolute elite in these small kingdoms, and as long as one is willing to join, they lack nothing.

As for Flender being so poor despite being a level 78 Soul Saint, that's purely due to his unique perspective.

If he were willing to join the Balak Kingdom, he would receive at least tens of thousands of Gold Soul Coin a year, along with other rewards, and Shrek Academy would Refresh.

However, he himself was unwilling, believing that external factors would interfere with his teaching philosophy, and he was too ashamed to hire someone else. So the end result was that he was just sitting around doing nothing, and even to the point of having to cheat students out of their tuition fees.

Upon hearing this, Qing Tianfeng and Xu Yao exchanged a glance, then said to Qing Mu, "Your mother and I plan to travel across the continent, just like we did when we were young, to gain experience."

"Experience?"

Upon hearing this, Qing Mu was slightly taken aback; he hadn't expected his parents to choose this path.

Xu Yao nodded, patted Qing Mu's head and said, "We originally thought that this was the end of our lives, so we accepted the title of the Hagen Das Kingdom and prepared to live out the rest of our lives in this way. But Mu'er, you gave us hope. Thank you so much."

I know you're worried, but a mild environment can't nurture true powerhouses. If we cultivate at home, there's a high chance we'll never break through to the Title Douluo level in our entire lives.

Now that we see how strong you are, we're relieved. Your parents will now go on to pursue our own paths."

As prodigies who were able to graduate normally from the Advanced Soul Master Academy, Xu Yao and Qing Tianfeng were once full of ambition, believing that they might become powerful figures with a name and reputation on the continent.

But reality hit them like a hammer blow, shattering their spirits.

When they learned that they might never be able to break through to the Soul King level in their lifetime, their original ambitions naturally dissipated.

However, after being baptized by the Immortal Herb given by Qing Mu, their aptitude was improved, and their hope for struggle was rekindled. This hope reached its peak after they absorbed Whale Rubber, obtained Soul Bone, and surpassed ordinary Soul Ring.
