The Great Stage of Douluo, My Name is Qian Xunji

"I want it, but you don't have it!"

"You really dare to think!"

Qian Daoliu endured it several times, but couldn't hold back, once again staging a scene of fatherly kindness and filial piety.

·······················································

A few days later.

These elders arrived at the Alchemy Hall, beaming with joy as they brought along the promising juniors they had handpicked, ready to distribute the immortal pills based on their martial souls and physical constitutions.

The martial soul of Golden Crocodile Douluo's grandson was the Golden Crocodile, and the immortal herb most suited for it was actually the Singular Velvet Sky Chrysanthemum. This was the herb that resonated with most metal-attribute beast martial souls, but the Singular Velvet Sky Chrysanthemum had already been taken by Chrysanthemum Douluo.

They had no choice but to settle for the next best thing: an immortal pill refined from the Earth Dragon Golden Melon. The Earth Dragon Golden Melon was a top-tier earth-attribute immortal plant, possessing the efficacy to strengthen control over earth elements and promote the evolution of dragon-type martial souls. It contained the power of the earth dragon and chaotic bloodline, and consuming it could also raise one's Soul Power Level, compensating for any foundational flaws.

Although the Golden Crocodile had nothing to do with earth attributes or dragon-type martial souls, the first and second soul rings the child had acquired later in life originated from dragon-type soul beasts, and the Golden Crocodile had inevitably developed some dragon-like bloodlines and characteristics.

After consuming the Earth Dragon Golden Melon pill, the Soul Power of Golden Crocodile Douluo's grandson increased by four levels directly. However, what made Golden Crocodile Douluo even happier was that the Golden Crocodile martial soul had actually evolved into a Golden Crocodile Dragon.

The dragon bloodline and characteristics now surpassed the crocodile bloodline; the head displayed dragon-like features, the entire body was covered in golden scales with extremely strong defensive capabilities, the original U-shaped crocodile snout had transformed into a dragon's beak-like mouth, the teeth were ferocious and sharp, and the legs had become robust and sturdy, more than twice as tall as before, even allowing it to stand upright.

With this precedent, the children who followed were also filled with anticipation and envy.

Qing Luan Douluo's granddaughter had inherited his Qing Luan martial soul, but her Innate Soul Power was not very high. Bian Que hesitated between the Cockscomb Phoenix Sunflower and the Narcissus Jade Muscle Bone, ultimately choosing the Cockscomb Phoenix Sunflower.

The Cockscomb Phoenix Sunflower had leaves shaped like a cockscomb at the tips with crimson-gold veins, possessing medicinal properties that greatly supplemented pure yang. Its secondary effects included purifying and removing impurities from the body and cleansing the bloodline, which might allow the Qing Luan martial soul to evolve.

The little girl had short, deep blue hair and smoky blue eyes, with delicate and handsome features and a nimble posture. Now, she extended her hands with anticipation, receiving a pill that was entirely red with a crimson-gold phoenix pattern on the surface from Bian Que, a child even younger than herself.

As the pill entered her stomach, the Soul Power on the girl's body fluctuated, increasing by four levels. Her martial soul also manifested: a Qing Luan with gorgeous plumage, a cry similar to a phoenix's, and a beautiful tail. After her bloodline was purified, the wings, which had previously been mixed with other colors, became more translucent and magnificent. The tail feathers grew longer, reaching half the length of her body; when she flew, they trailed behind her like a gorgeous skirt, and the strength of her martial soul was also significantly enhanced.

Those that are red are called Phoenix, those that are mostly blue are called Luan.

Looking at her more beautiful and powerful martial soul, the little girl thanked him happily and left with her grandfather.

The Fourth Worship, Mighty Lion Douluo, had a grandson whose martial soul was also the Blazing Lion. Bian Que gave him a Cockscomb Phoenix Sunflower pill as well, which was highly compatible with the fire attribute in his martial soul and could purify and strengthen his flames.

The Fifth Worship, Guang Ling Douluo, was like Golden Crocodile Douluo; the descendants who inherited his martial soul had seen it degenerate. Of the ice and light attributes in the Guang Ling Bow, his descendant had only inherited the ice attribute and could not fire invisible arrows. Even so, this grandson was the most talented among his descendants.

Bian Que carefully examined the body of this handsome silver-haired youth and finally settled on the Narcissus Jade Muscle Bone.

The Narcissus Jade Muscle Bone was a white, crystalline flower, looking as spotless as a green lotus or white lotus root. Its effect was to moisten the tendons and supplement the bones, clearing the eight extraordinary meridians. It was safer and could improve this child's talent and speed in Soul Power cultivation.

The silver-haired youth looked at his unchanged martial soul, then glanced at the companions who had come with him, his eyes filled with envy.

After a few more children remained, Bian Que distributed suitable immortal herbs to them according to their martial souls and physical states as well.

The Alchemy Hall was filled with a joyous atmosphere for a time, but the various Title Douluo could not help but fix their gazes on this child who was not yet eight years old.

One had to know that these immortal pills were all refined by him, and this Alchemy Hall could be said to be supported by him alone; his ability was beyond doubt.

The entire hall was permeated with the scent of medicinal herbs, and the Title Douluo could not help but curiously look at the book of pill introductions on the side.

The book listed various types of pills, and the effects within were dazzling to behold. Of course, it included introductions to the immortal pills.

These Douluo also found their hearts stirred.

Chapter 52 Breakthrough Success

When Falling Devil Douluo was scanning through it roughly, he saw the words "level breakthrough" and immediately grasped the key point, carefully flipping through the detailed content.

[Soul Power Breakthrough Pill: Can assist soul masters in breaking through their own Soul Power Level.

According to the soul master's level, the Soul Power Breakthrough Pill is divided into ten grades. A Grade 1 Soul Power Breakthrough Pill can assist a Soul Master in breaking through, a Grade 2 can assist a Soul Grand Master, and so on. A Grade 9 Soul Power Breakthrough Pill can assist a Title Douluo (levels 91-94) in breaking through, and Grade 10 can assist a Super Douluo.

The exchange merit prices are as follows...

(Additionally, please note that the success rate for the first time taking a Soul Power Breakthrough Pill is 80%, the second time the success rate will drop significantly to 30%, the third time the success rate is 10%, and the fourth time the effect is nearly non-existent.)]

(Hmm... as for why Grade 1 is not provided for Soul Scholars to break through, if one needs to rely on pills to break through even at the Soul Scholar stage, then one should really give up on cultivating as a soul master early on. Bian Que truly disdained refining such "baby" pills.)

Because the effects of the previous immortal pills had been verified, these Title Douluo still had some trust in Bian Que.

Falling Devil Douluo walked to the table with the book, pointed at the introduction of the Soul Power Breakthrough Pill, and asked, "Is the content here true?"

The golden-haired, hooded boy, whose eyes were already narrowed into slits and who had been yawning the whole time, perked up and glanced at the content Falling Devil Douluo was pointing at.

"That's right, this is one of the newly developed pills, but the quantity is limited," Bian Que nodded and confirmed, though he added a final sentence.

He had only developed this kind of pill at the request of Qian Xunji, and the stock was not large. Moreover, because it required whale rubber worth a thousand gold, blood ginseng over a hundred years old, and other rare materials, the Soul Power Breakthrough Pills that were effective for Title Douluo were even mixed with a low-grade immortal herb, making it impossible to mass-produce.

"It can also be effective for a Super Douluo?" Falling Devil Douluo was still somewhat skeptical and asked again to confirm.

"It can," Bian Que replied, half-propping his head with one hand to maintain his wakefulness.

"Good, give this old man one. If it has no effect, you should know the consequences of deceiving a Title Douluo." Falling Devil Douluo slammed the table and spoke loudly, his tone filled with indescribable excitement, mixed with a hint of doubt and disbelief.

As a level 96 Power Attack System peak Douluo, Falling Devil Douluo had not broken through for nearly a hundred years, and the barrier to his breakthrough was as solid as a rock.

After a soul master reaches level 95, if an ordinary soul master does not have a great opportunity, then every level they raise requires hundreds or even several hundred years to calculate.

Falling Devil Douluo knew that this was likely the limit of his talent, and he might spend his whole life at level 96.

Most of the Worships in the Worship Hall were in this situation; they were stuck at the peak of their Soul Power, but because their talent was exhausted, they could never break through.

The commotion here also attracted the attention of others in the hall.

As a Title Douluo powerhouse, Falling Devil Douluo had been working for over a hundred years, so his accumulated merits were naturally sufficient. After confirmation, he proceeded.

Bian Que opened one of the densely packed drawers from the alchemy cabinet behind him, took out a white porcelain medicine bottle, extracted a pale blue pill that looked translucent under the sunlight, and handed it to Falling Devil Douluo.

The pill was not large, appearing more like an exquisite piece of art in Falling Devil Douluo's thick hands.

Falling Devil Douluo swallowed hard; he had already witnessed the miraculous nature of these pills before.

The other Worships also crowded around. Having heard the conversation between the two clearly, they could not help but feel curious about whether this Soul Power Breakthrough Pill was as miraculous as the child claimed.

Falling Devil Douluo smelled the faint fragrance of the pill at his nose, opened his mouth, and consumed it.

With the physical strength of a Title Douluo, he would be fine even if it were truly poisonous.

The pill melted almost instantly upon contact with his tongue. Falling Devil Douluo felt a wave of icy coldness slide down his throat, followed by his own soul power surging uncontrollably, causing the ground to crack under the pressure of the uncontained energy.

As his soul power surged and swelled, Falling Devil Douluo sensed that the barrier that had trapped him for years showed signs of breaking.

He could not miss this opportunity and immediately sat on the ground, crossing his legs to cultivate.

The Worships on the side were also observing Falling Devil Douluo's condition.

Golden Crocodile Douluo, as the Second Worship ranked second and a level 98 Power Attack System peak Douluo, was only a step away from being a Limit Douluo. His perception and experience were the most profound. "It seems Old Seven really does show signs of breaking through. This pill doesn't just provide a massive amount of soul power and energy; it seems to be infused with something that can raise the ceiling of one's talent and physical constitution."

Mighty Lion Douluo nodded from the side. "Although the improvement to talent and physique isn't high, at such a critical moment of breakthrough, the effect is key."

"But whether he succeeds or not still depends on the result." Qing Luan Douluo crossed his arms and made his judgment.

Qianjun Douluo was full of worry; Falling Devil Douluo was his own younger brother, so he naturally hoped he would succeed in his breakthrough.

The Title Douluos had plenty of patience, and everyone waited in the great hall for a full five hours.

Bian Que could no longer hold on and had fallen asleep slumped over the table.

Finally, the aura around Falling Devil Douluo suddenly became powerful, his soul power surged once more, and then slowly calmed down.

Breakthrough successful!

Seeing that Old Seven had broken through, the various Worships naturally stepped forward to congratulate him happily.

Inside the Alchemy Hall, apart from a few staff members with little presence, only Bian Que and the six Worships remained, looking particularly conspicuous.

After the congratulations, everyone's gaze turned to Bian Que, who was sleeping on the table.

The golden-haired child was slumped over the golden-yellow giant fir table, and the dark, cyan circles under his eyes on his fair, tender face were particularly eye-catching.

As Title Douluos and figures of the grandfather generation, the Worships were very conflicted about how to address this child.

According to his position, they should call him the Hall Master of the Alchemy Hall; according to age, seniority, and soul power level, Bian Que should be the one to offer them a salute.

Under the gaze of so many eyes, Bian Que opened his eyes and looked up to see six pairs of eyes staring straight at him.

"Awake?"

"In this situation, I wouldn't be able to sleep either."

Mighty Lion Douluo, being of a more impatient nature, spoke up, "Give me a portion of this Soul Power Breakthrough Pill as well."

"I can, but there is only one portion left!" Bian Que nodded, squinting his sleepy eyes as he poured out the last pale blue pill from the white porcelain bottle.

"Why is there so little?" Hearing this, all the Worships frowned, and Mighty Lion Douluo asked with some dissatisfaction.

"First, I have other pills to refine, and second, the materials are insufficient." Bian Que explained.

"I don't know which materials are missing. If possible, I can help find them. If you can successfully help me break through, there will be a great reward." Golden Crocodile Douluo heard the reason, smiled, and made a promise.

The golden-haired boy climbed down from the high stool, and the several Title Douluos suddenly lost sight of him as he entered their visual blind spot.

Under the table, there was a rustling sound, like pages being turned.

After a while, Bian Que climbed back onto the high stool holding a scribbled and revised manuscript of the pill formula, re-entering their field of vision.

"Just these, you can take a look." The somewhat messy and wrinkled formula was handed over.

The Worships immediately crowded around to examine the formula carefully. Looking at the medicinal herbs listed, even the Title Douluos frowned.

These herbs were not just expensive; the key was that they were priceless and hard to find.

Even with money, one might not be able to buy Whale Rubber, Century Blood Ginseng, Millennium Meat Ganoderma, and other such herbs.

However, for those with true power and influence, spending a fortune and putting in some effort would eventually allow them to gather everything.

After memorizing the formula, the Worships nodded. "In that case, I will have these herbs found for you. You..."

Looking at Bian Que's pale complexion, dark circles, and his frail, swaying body, Golden Crocodile Douluo's voice paused. "You should get some good rest!"

How long had this child gone without sleep?

If he remembered correctly, this child was only seven years old. The Pope really should leave some rest time for the child!
