Mountain River Suppression

"Gasp... A Nine Heart Begonia capable of restoring Soul Power and a nine-tiered, nine-colored Nine Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda appearing at the same time... Xiao Xuan, he... he's creating gods!" Qin Ming's voice trembled.

He could barely speak properly.

The others did not react much better.

One possessed all-purpose restorative power.

The other possessed all-purpose amplification power.

Not to mention how powerful someone would become with both supporting them at once.

Even considering the two of them alone, if they supported each other...

Wouldn't that make them perpetual motion machines?

Yu Tianheng and Dugu Yan thought of this at the same time.

They unconsciously exchanged glances, and both could see the confusion hidden in the other's eyes.

It seemed that, in the current Imperial Dou Fighting Team, the two of them were the weakest?

"Ning girl, you consumed the King of Immortal Herbs. Breaking through your Martial Soul Shackles should only be the foundation, right? Were there any other effects? Such as... concealing your aura?" Dugu Bo suddenly asked.

The reason he asked this...

Was because he had discovered that he could not sense anything about Ning Rongrong, including her level.

If he had not seen Ning Rongrong standing before him with his own eyes...

He might truly have believed there was nothing here.

"Senior Dugu, your insight is truly sharp. Breaking through my Martial Soul Shackles was indeed only the foundation." Ning Rongrong smiled sweetly. "First, I can conceal my aura. As long as I don't wish it, no one besides Brother Xuan can sense anything related to me. If someone insists on probing me, they will only be injured by the aura of the Lovesick Heartbreak Red."

"Second, it feels as though I awakened some sort of bloodline. All plants beneath heaven must bow before me. If weaker plant-type Spirit Masters face me, they may not even be able to release their Martial Souls."

"Lastly, there are my Soul Power and Mental Power. As for Soul Power, I am currently at Level 20, and I need a Spirit Ring before I can judge it accurately. Mental Power is also difficult to assess, but my Heart Separation Control has crossed over Three Orifice Control of the Heart and directly reached the peak of Four Orifice Constant Heart, only a hair away from Five Orifice Scattered Heart."

"And those are only the visible benefits. My Physical Fitness, recovery speed, and even vitality, things that cannot be accurately measured, have all improved tremendously."

As soon as Ning Rongrong finished speaking...

Dugu Bo's stubbornness flared up.

He impatiently extended a large hand and placed it on Ning Rongrong's shoulder.

He tried to send out his Soul Power to inspect her internal condition.

Yet the moment his Soul Power entered Ning Rongrong's body, it was repelled by a powerful force.

The impact was so strong that even Dugu Bo could not help taking two steps back.

"As expected... is this the King of Immortal Herbs..." Dugu Bo muttered.

Although his Soul Power had been repelled, he had still roughly sensed some details.

Ning Rongrong, after consuming the Lovesick Heartbreak Red, possessed a body that was not necessarily comparable to Tang Xuan or Yu Tianheng...

But was at least evenly matched with his granddaughter, Dugu Yan.

One had to understand that Ning Rongrong was merely a support-type Spirit Master.

Tang Xuan had only told him that the Lovesick Heartbreak Red could bring the dead back to life and regenerate flesh from bones.

He had never said it could improve every ability across the board as well.

Could something a mortal thing accomplish truly exist in this world?

The others wore expressions much like Dugu Bo's.

Though they did not know all those details...

A mighty Titled Douluo being knocked back several steps by a near-Soul Grandmaster...

Was already enough to prove many things.

"Everyone, have you all finished absorbing your Immortal Herbs?" Tang Xuan had quietly awakened at some unknown point.

Tang Xuan's changes were anything but small.

At first glance, his hair and pupils were still their usual black.

But upon closer inspection, a faint Red Light could be seen within them.

"Brother Xuan." Ning Rongrong shot into Tang Xuan's arms in an instant, tears shimmering in her eyes as she spoke incoherently. "I've improved so, so much. I... I have a chance to break through to Titled Douluo now. In the future, I can stay by your side forever."

Originally, her greatest possible achievement had only been Level Seventy-Nine, the same as Ning Fengzhi, a Soul Saint.

Even if she broke through her Martial Soul Shackles through a fortunate opportunity, she would at most become a Soul Douluo.

But Tang Xuan was simply too monstrous. In Chen Xin's words, even Titled Douluo would only be his Qidian.

While Ning Rongrong was proud of him, she could not help but worry.

She feared that one day in the future, she would no longer be able to keep up with Tang Xuan's footsteps.

Perhaps even catching a glimpse of his back would become an unattainable wish.

But now that she had the Lovesick Heartbreak Red Tang Xuan had given her, all those worries would vanish like smoke.

She was determined to remain steadfastly by Tang Xuan's side and become his greatest support.

"Then Rong Rong mustn't go back on your word." Tang Xuan gently rubbed her head.

His gaze held an unprecedented gentleness.

After consuming the Full Moon Wearing Autumn Dew, Tang Xuan's Mental Power had surged enormously.

Some things he had once failed to understand now naturally became clear.

Perhaps there were some matters he never needed to agonize over in the first place.

Just as now, simply letting things take their natural course was enough.

"Tang Xiao Xuan, after consuming the Immortal Herb, my Physical Fitness skyrocketed, and my strength has advanced by leaps and bounds. What improvements did you gain?" Yu Tianheng asked.

But the smugness in his eyes was impossible to hide.

Anyone could see that he was getting a little carried away.

"Oh? Do you want to try?" Tang Xuan's face was full of amusement.

Yu Tianheng's heart skipped a beat at the sight.

One look at Tang Xuan's expression told him that Tang Xuan was up to no good.

But someone as proud as him could hardly admit defeat so easily.

"Then let's try it. Come on." Yu Tianheng raised his chin. Since he had chosen this path himself, he had to walk it to the end even on his knees.

Still, to be safe, he released his Martial Soul Possession.

"Then watch carefully." Tang Xuan left those words behind and slowly closed his eyes.

Yu Tianheng was utterly baffled.

What was this? Getting sleepy in the middle of a fight?

But before his confusion could last long...

Tang Xuan opened his eyes, which had completely turned Mysterious Black.

The instant his gaze landed on Yu Tianheng...

Yu Tianheng felt an invisible, intangible force descend upon him like Mount Tai crushing down from above.

His limbs, neck, Soul Power, and even breathing completely froze. He could not move at all.

It felt as if he had been buried alive. Other than waiting for death, there was nothing he could do.

Just as despair filled Yu Tianheng's heart...

Tang Xuan withdrew his gaze.

Yu Tianheng felt as though a tremendous burden had been lifted. With a thud, he dropped to one knee and gasped for breath, his eyes filled with lingering fear. "Th-this is your Sword Momentum? Just one look? How is that possible?"

Tang Xuan chuckled. "After consuming the Full Moon Wearing Autumn Dew, my Mental Power surged, and my Sword Momentum finally grew to its complete form. Before the sword is even drawn, the enemy already feels Mount Tai bearing down upon them. I call it—Mountain River Suppression!"

If Chen Xin's Sword Momentum emphasized the word "kill," prioritizing sharpness and slaughter...

Then Tang Xuan's Sword Momentum had only one word: "suppress." It suppressed with the palm and controlled through action.

No matter how many methods you possessed, you would never escape his grasp.

"I understand the principle, but isn't this too unreasonable? Your Mental Power is no weaker than mine." Qin Ming felt like all the books he had taught over the years had been for nothing.

Ever since meeting Tang Xuan, his Worldview had been reorganized countless times.

"Oh? You think this is unreasonable already? Then what about this?" Tang Xuan lightly snapped his fingers.

The instant the sound rang out...

The Mysterious Iron Heavy Sword appeared out of thin air before everyone.

At the same time...

A profoundly mysterious fluctuation swept across everyone's bodies.

The Imperial Dou Group had not even reacted yet...

When Dugu Bo cried out in shock, "A Talent Domain?"
