The Second Soul Ring, the Early Days of the Sky Mending Pavilion

After some more time passed, Li Qingxuan stabilized his cultivation and finally decided to go to the Star Dou Great Forest to hunt soul beasts.

The day they set out.

Ye Guyi also brought several hundred Gold Soul Coins.

However, all the Gold Soul Coins were stored in the Black Card.

"Young Master, the clothes I designed sold extremely well. It's just that we didn't earn much. We can go near Heaven Dou City and choose a nice estate as our base. As for building something more magnificent, that will still take time."

Although the currency systems and price levels of the Douluo Continent ten thousand years ago and ten thousand years later were different, during this period, he had only provided the designs without participating in the business itself, yet he had still received seven hundred Gold Soul Coins from their fifty-fifty split.

The initial start-up capital greatly increased his confidence in making a fortune later.

"Having more confidence is a good thing."

"Hehe, Young Master, why don't you take a look at who I am?"

Ye Guyi smiled confidently. "This money will keep flowing in. It may be more or less at times, but that's normal. So, we need to recruit people for the Sky Mending Pavilion next. Who should we recruit?"

"I already have someone in mind. The first Titled Douluo—Dugu Bo."

Although Dugu Bo was known as the weakest among Titled Douluos, he was still a Titled Douluo with genuine strength, as well as the ability to control and deploy poison.

When it came to poison, no one on the continent could surpass Dugu Bo.

He had himself been tormented by poison for many years, and even his son had died beneath the Jade Phosphor Serpent Poison.

"Dugu Bo? I don't know much about him. Please explain him in detail, Young Master."

"Dugu Bo's martial soul evolved from the Jade Phosphor Serpent into the Jade Phosphor Serpent Emperor. He's a level ninety-one Titled Douluo and has been plagued by the Jade Phosphor Serpent Poison for many years. Our opportunity to invite him to join us is simple: successfully detoxifying him."

"The Jade Phosphor Serpent Poison? Young Master, we don't have a way to cure it either," Ye Guyi said.

"There is a way. We can even complete the evolution of his martial soul. Just trust me. Would your Young Master ever do something he wasn't confident about?"

Li Qingxuan decided to obtain his second soul ring first, then deal with the major problem of Dugu Bo.

"Young Master, then let's go hunt a soul beast now. We'll settle your second soul ring first." Ye Guyi smiled. "The Young Master's matters are the top priority."

Ye Guyi picked up Li Qingxuan and shot out of Heaven Dou City, heading straight for the Star Dou Great Forest.

With a Super Douluo escorting them, their journey was completely unhindered, and they went straight into the forest's core region.

"Young Master, your second soul ring must be at least a thousand years old. I'll find a soul beast with the best compatibility with the light attribute for you."

Ye Guyi released her spiritual power, sweeping across the entire dense forest.

A moment later, her eyes suddenly lit up.

"Found it!"

She pulled Li Qingxuan into a leap and landed in a valley. On the open ground ahead, a golden giant dragon coiled amid crackling lightning.

It was a 2,700-year-old Three Lights Thunder Dragon, possessing both light and lightning attributes. It was perfectly compatible with the Eternal Sun Wheel.

The Three Lights Thunder Dragon sensed the strangers, raised its head, and roared. Golden light and lightning intertwined as they shot into the sky.

"Young Master, step back. I'll suppress it."

Ye Guyi took one step forward, and the pressure of the Sacred Angel erupted.

All nine soul rings lit up, instantly locking down every movement of the Three Lights Thunder Dragon.

Li Qingxuan immediately summoned the Eternal Sun Wheel. The sun wheel hovered above his head as the Nine Yang Divine Skill circulated at full power.

"Blazing Sun Dazzling Light!"

A blinding radiance exploded, and the Three Lights Thunder Dragon instantly lost its sight.

He stepped on Lingbo Weibu, his body transforming into a golden blur as he circled to the side of the dragon in an instant.

The Eternal Sun Wheel, wrapped in the power of light, slammed viciously into the Three Lights Thunder Dragon's vital point.

Boom!

The Three Lights Thunder Dragon let out a mournful cry. Its enormous body crashed to the ground, completely lifeless.

A deep-purple Thousand-Year Soul Ring slowly rose from the corpse.

"Perfect compatibility. Young Master, absorb it quickly!"

Ye Guyi raised her hand and cast a Sacred Light Barrier, isolating all aura and protecting him with all her strength.

Li Qingxuan sat down cross-legged, guided the soul ring into his body, and began absorbing his second soul ring.

If I'm the Vice Pavilion Master, can't I also bring all the original members of the Tang Sect into the Sky Mending Pavilion?

Ye Guyi immediately thought of the forces and academies that the first Tang Sect had subdued.

If they subdued all four of the Clear Sky Sect's original affiliated clans and incorporated the Five Element Academy into the Sky Mending Pavilion as well, then—

The Sky Mending Pavilion's overall strength would definitely rank among the first-rate powers.

There was no Holy Spirit Cult on the continent at this time, and they did not need to worry about harassment from Evil Soul Masters either.

The Tang Sect?

Even though Tang San would establish the Tang Sect ten thousand years ago, Tang San was only six years old now. So when the Tang Sect was established many years later, it would merely be a small force.

A moment later, Li Qingxuan successfully absorbed the soul ring into his body.

"Young Master, how do you feel?"

"Not bad."

Li Qingxuan opened his eyes and sensed the changes in his Soul Power. It had already reached level twenty-two. After absorbing the Thousand-Year Soul Ring, his Soul Power had risen by one level.

Ye Guyi hurried forward, her face filled with delight. "Young Master, quickly try your second soul skill!"

"No problem!"

Li Qingxuan nodded and urged his Soul Power with all his might.

"Second Soul Skill, Thunder Sun Wheel Bomb!"

The Eternal Sun Wheel suddenly expanded to a diameter of one meter. Wrapped in golden light and lightning, it shot out with a howl and smashed into the giant tree ahead.

Boom!

A thunderous explosion erupted, and the tree trunk was instantly blasted apart. Lightning and heat spread ten meters, leaving a charred pit in the ground as the lingering electricity continued to numb the surrounding vegetation.

"With both light and lightning attributes, its power completely overwhelms soul skills of the same level!"

Ye Guyi's eyes were filled with amazement.

Li Qingxuan withdrew his martial soul, his golden eyes gleaming faintly. "The power is sufficient. Next, we'll go deal with Dugu Bo."

"Then, Young Master, do you know where Dugu Bo lives now?"

Ye Guyi was somewhat puzzled. She had never heard Dugu Bo's name mentioned during this period.

"Heaven Dou City. Before this, he was noticed by the Spirit Hall. Since Dugu Bo belonged to no faction and had an eccentric personality, the Spirit Hall identified him as a dangerous factor."

"They sent Chrysanthemum Du and Ghost Douluo to recruit him, but Dugu Bo refused and was immediately hunted down by the Spirit Hall."

"While fleeing, he encountered Prince Xue Xing of the Heaven Dou Empire. To survive, Dugu Bo agreed to join Prince Xue Xing. Prince Xue Xing then relied on his army to successfully force Chrysanthemum Du and Ghost Douluo back."

After hearing this, Ye Guyi's eyes widened.

"Young Master, you know all that in such detail. No wonder you're the Know-It-All in Boney's heart."

"I know many things. Otherwise, I wouldn't be trying to recruit Dugu Bo like this."

The first step was to recruit Dugu Bo. The second was to make the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well their own supply base, which could also be used to invite others to join the Sky Mending Pavilion.

"Let's go, Young Master. We'll return to Heaven Dou City now."

"During the early days of our Sky Mending Pavilion, being able to recruit Dugu Bo as its first member is already quite good."

"You certainly take things in stride!"

"Of course. It's ten thousand years ago now, and there are no Evil Soul Masters, so I can afford to relax."
