Who Wouldn't Want a +15 Weapon?

"..."

"Third Brother could tell from when you were little that you had the makings of a Dou Emperor. After all, your Third Brother here was the same way. Do I look panicked to you? Not at all!"

Xiao Lang patted Xiao Yan on the shoulder. "Trust Third Brother, become a Dou Emperor."

"..."

Hearing Xiao Lang's words, Xiao Yan's mouth twitched.

What the hell did he mean, trust Third Brother and become a Dou Emperor? When had Third Brother ever been reliable?

If he did not know how to comfort people, he should talk less in the future.

Xiao Yan felt like he had some kind of illness to seek comfort from Third Brother.

"Third Brother, it's not that I don't believe you. It's just that your enlightenment sounds too absurd. If I don't see it with my own eyes, it'll be hard for me to believe it."

Xiao Yan still did not want to crush his Third Brother's confidence.

Boom!

Just as Xiao Yan finished speaking, a ripple of Dou Qi came from Xiao Lang's body.

Then, the calm air suddenly churned violently. Strands of pale white Dou Qi seeped out of the air and continuously poured into Xiao Lang's body, leaving Xiao Yan dumbfounded.

This... he seemed about to break through?

This was exactly what it had looked like when he condensed his vortex and became a Dou Zhe.

Could this be enlightenment?

But if it was enlightenment, he had to actually comprehend something, right?

He had just been chatting nonsense with him, and then he broke through? This was too ridiculous.

Could it be that his Third Brother truly had the makings of a Dou Emperor and was the child of fate?

Before his transmigration, he had often read novels about people born with such protagonist halos.

Xiao Yan looked at his Third Brother with suspicion.

Starting out as useless trash, handsome looks, and aside from being a little unwell in the head and having parents sacrificed to the heavens, he was exactly like a child of fate from a novel.

If someone broke off an engagement with him next, he would definitely be a child of fate.

In the blink of an eye, half an hour passed.

"Strange. Third Brother clearly shows no signs of his vortex becoming unstable, so why is it taking him so long to condense one?" Xiao Yan frowned deeply as he watched Xiao Lang spend half an hour condensing his vortex, yet he did not dare disturb him rashly.

Another half hour passed. Xiao Lang still showed no sign of succeeding, but the surrounding Dou Qi grew even denser and flooded wildly into his body. Vaguely, a Dou Qi vortex even formed above him.

"With so much Dou Qi, won't Third Brother burst?"

Xiao Yan swallowed, shock filling his eyes. If Xiao Lang had not shown any discomfort, he would have wanted to interrupt him immediately.

At that moment, he vaguely realized something.

Was Third Brother's slow cultivation speed because his dantian stored several times more Dou Qi than ordinary people's?

After all, the time Third Brother had spent condensing his vortex had already exceeded Xiao Yan's own by nearly ten times.

Bang!

Finally, another hour later, a soft muffled sound rang quietly from within Xiao Lang's body. Then, an aura of Dou Qi as dense as a Da Dou Shi's flashed and vanished. He had clearly succeeded in becoming a Dou Zhe once more!

He did not need Qi Gathering Powder to condense a Dou Qi Vortex successfully. After all, this was the "Level +1" reward for completing a system task. It could ignore bottlenecks and directly make him a Dou Zhe.

However, he still had to go through the process of absorbing Dou Qi during his breakthrough.

"Feels good!"

Xiao Lang opened his eyes, joy shining in their clarity. Feeling the long-lost Dou Qi fill his dantian once more, he could not help letting out a moan.

Looking at the galaxy-like vortex within his dantian, Xiao Lang wore a satisfied expression.

He still did not know that his vortex was more than ten times larger than an ordinary person's!

Moreover, inner vision was an auxiliary ability only Dou Zhes could grasp. The stronger one was, the more thoroughly one could investigate the condition inside one's body.

Not to mention that no one would let others examine their vortex, just as no one would let others inspect their treasures.

One careless mistake could lead to lifelong regret.

It was extremely dangerous.

It was equivalent to letting someone else hold your weakness in their hand.

As long as the other party harbored malicious intent, they could directly detonate your vortex and cripple your cultivation. It was the same principle as having someone crush your weakness.

"Little Brother, what did you say just now? I entered enlightenment and didn't hear you clearly."

Xiao Lang recalled the system notification sounding in his mind. Then a force had surged into his body, and he had become groggy, as though he had fallen asleep. Xiao Yan seemed to have said something to him then.

"..."

Xiao Yan's mouth twitched. He awkwardly shook his head. "Nothing."

After all, he had just said that unless he saw it with his own eyes, he would never believe in that bullshit enlightenment.

And then the other party entered enlightenment, broke through, and even condensed a vortex in one go to become a Dou Zhe!

Furthermore, his intuition told him that Third Brother was definitely no ordinary Dou Zhe. Who could absorb such an enormous amount of Dou Qi while condensing a vortex?

Setting aside the possibility of being burst apart by so much Dou Qi, an ordinary person simply could not suppress so much Dou Qi while condensing a vortex inside their body.

When he had condensed his vortex for the first time, he had nearly failed to suppress it. It had felt like he was narrowly escaping death.

Yet Third Brother looked completely fine. Seeing his sleepy eyes, Xiao Yan even suspected that he had not broken through at all, but had merely gone back to sleep.

"Congratulations on becoming a Dou Zhe again, Third Brother! Once I come of age, let's travel the continent together!" Xiao Yan did not dwell on it. Instead, he became even more convinced that his Third Brother might be a child of fate, and he spoke eagerly.

"We'll talk when you come of age."

Xiao Lang neither refused nor agreed.

"Oh, right. Could you lend me the ring Mother left you for one night? I miss Mother a little. I want to tell her that I'm not useless!"

Xiao Lang had always remembered his task. After all, the reward for fooling Old Yao was simply too tempting!

Besides three Invisibility Pills and a First-grade Enhancement Pill, there was even a Nine-star Dou Venerate Pill!

The First-grade Enhancement Pill did not merely strengthen one's body. It was equivalent to an enhancement scroll and could enhance anything!

For example, pills, weapons, and even Cultivation Methods and Dou Techniques could all be enhanced!

Xiao Lang could even predict that some genius would ask what would happen if an Enhancement Pill was used to enhance another Enhancement Pill.

The system told him that he would obtain a second-grade Enhancement Pill. However, to obtain a third-grade Enhancement Pill, he would need two second-grade Enhancement Pills, and so on.

"Mm."

Xiao Yan nodded without refusing. He then kept pestering Xiao Lang about forming a mercenary group. Only after Xiao Lang said he would consider it did Xiao Yan leave reluctantly.

Because he needed to cultivate even harder as well.

"He's finally gone. Now I can finally take out my exclusive weapon!" Xiao Lang looked at the system inventory with excitement and anticipation.

After all, his First-grade Enhancement Pill could enhance weapons!

Who would not want a +15 weapon?

Looking at the Golden Glowing Club in his hand, Xiao Lang grew a little impatient.
