After consuming the Hundred-Thousand-Year Whale Rubber, Qian Renxue and Ju Zi each found a place for a short period of seclusion.
At dawn, as the sky began to lighten, Luo Can spread his Golden Dragon Wings and flew out of the valley, arriving once again at the Fate Defying Pavilion's headquarters in Baican Village.
He first went to the Soul Tool Hall.
The furnace inside the hall still burned, and the sounds of hammering and the buzzing of soul power continued incessantly. Luo Can found Lou Gao, who was frowning and deep in thought, facing a complex metal component.
"Senior Lou Gao," Luo Can greeted.
" Pavilion Master?" Lou Gao snapped out of his daze and quickly put down what he was holding.
Luo Can said, "Senior Lou Gao, Hall Master Ju Zi has recently encountered a great opportunity and is currently in seclusion to break through. During this time, I will trouble you to take good care of the affairs of the Soul Tool Hall."
Upon hearing this, Lou Gao's brows furrowed instantly, his face filled with worry. " Pavilion Master, you may not know this, but the research on the Battle Armor has now reached the most crucial core stage. The Hall Master Ju Zi is currently in seclusion might delay the overall progress..."
Luo Can smiled and reassured her, "Don't worry, senior. If Ju Zi succeeds in breaking through this time, her research on Battle Armor will only accelerate, and she definitely won't hold you back."
Lou Gao finally breathed a sigh of relief, patting his chest and assuring everyone, "Don't worry, Pavilion Master, leave the Soul Tool Hall to me, there will absolutely be no trouble!"
Luo Can nodded, then turned and went to the Medicine Hall, found Yang Wudi, and asked the other clansmen in the Medicine Hall about their knowledge of the three high-level pills.
"Two people have already been able to refine it independently, but the pills they produce have too many impurities and are not suitable for long-term, large-volume consumption," Yang Wudi reported truthfully.
"It's good enough that we can refine them at all," Luo Can said. "Keep these pills with impurities in them too, don't throw them away, they might come in handy later."
"Okay." Yang Wudi immediately nodded in agreement.
Afterwards, Luo Can went to the bottom of the Cliff of Desperate Fate to check on the cultivation progress of the seventeen newly recruited Associate Inner Pavilion Disciple.
This group of disciples is progressing much faster than the first group; half of them have already mastered the Embryonic Breathing Meditation Method and entered Deep Meditation state.
Two of the children, in particular, showed exceptional talent in body-refining techniques.
These two Yang Qian and Yang Yongyan, both from the Yang Clan Breaking Clan. They were born with a level seven Innate Soul Power. If it weren't for the constant conflicts between the Clear Sky Sect and the Spirit Hall in those years, which implicated the four affiliated families, they wouldn't have only had a level twenty-two or twenty-three soul power at the age of fifteen or sixteen.
Luo Can looked at the two of them, thought for a moment, and said, "You two have excellent talent in body tempering. If you can master the Flowing Soul Body Tempering Method to the minor completion level within three months, I will give you a special reward."
Upon hearing this, the two of them immediately showed expressions of surprise and delight. They straightened their backs and repeatedly assured Luo Can that they would cultivate diligently and never let the Pavilion Master down.
Luo Can made a round of visits to the sect, arranged everything that needed to be arranged, and then returned to the Fate Defying Valley of Fate to peacefully look after his two wives who were in seclusion.
This seclusion lasted for a full seven days before the two emerged from their seclusion, both having achieved significant breakthroughs.
Qian Renxue successfully broke through to level 98, and her Seventh Spirit Ring evolved from a black Ten Thousand Year Soul Ring to a red Hundred Thousand Year Spirit Ring. Her Soul Ring Configuration also changed from seven black and two red to six black and three red, and her strength reached a new level.
After absorbing the Hundred Thousand Years Head Spirit Bone, not only did Ju Zi's spiritual power reach the threshold of the Titled Douluo level, but his soul power also successfully broke through to the level 80 Soul Douluo realm, taking another big step closer to the Level 9 Soul Engineer.
As for Luo Can himself, through these seven days of Fishing, his Points have risen all the way to 350,000.
The day they emerged from seclusion was naturally filled with joy and celebration. The two "witches," whose strength had greatly increased, joined forces once again to "repay" their husbands' generous gifts and to test their "combat power" after their breakthroughs. They launched a "love-filled" yet "murderous" "repayment operation" against Luo Can.
This "battle" lasted from the afternoon until the next morning, a full day and night! The intensity of the battle and the twists and turns of the process were enough to fill a thick book of military strategy.
However, despite Qian Renxue and Ju Zi's greatly increased strength and increasingly seamless teamwork, and even the use of some of their newly acquired abilities, they ultimately failed to shake Luo Can's seemingly unfathomable "dominance".
As the morning sun once again bathed the valley, Luo Can was still radiant, while the two "witches" slept soundly in each other's arms.
Good times always pass too quickly. After a short rest, Qian Renxue and Ju Zi once again left the gentle embrace of love and threw themselves back into their busy work.
Qian Renxue returned to the headquarters of the Fate Defying Pavilion to take charge and handle the backlog of affairs, while Ju Zi couldn't wait to return to the Soul Tool Hall, preparing to overcome the final hurdle of the " Firefly " Battle Armor in one fell swoop.
Luo Can also entered the Stone Chamber again, took out the remaining Hundred-Thousand-Year Whale Rubber, and began to attack the remaining few Eight Extraordinary Meridians.
Perhaps it was because the Ancient Dragon Core he had taken earlier had already tempered his body to be strong enough that the remaining meridians were opened up with almost no resistance, and could even be said to be broken through with a single stroke.
In just one day, he opened up both the Yang Qiao Vessel and the Yin Qiao Vessel. Not only did the total amount of soul power in his body double, but his physical strength was also greatly improved.
The remaining Dai Vessel and Chong Vessel were also opened up one after another with the help of the medicinal power of the Hundred-Thousand-Year Whale Rubber. In the end, only the most crucial Ren and Du Vessels remained.
Feeling the terrifying, surging soul power within his body, Luo Can couldn't help but mutter to himself, "If I could open up the remaining Ren and Du Vessels, my total soul power should be on par with that of Limit Douluo!"
He couldn't help but wonder what level his total soul power would reach if he broke through to the Level 99 Limit Douluo.
Besides his soul power, his physical strength has increased even more dramatically, at least ten times what it was before. Now, even a direct attack from Limit Douluo can be withstood by his bare body.
"Let's find a secluded spot and test the power of a simultaneous Nine Ring Simultaneous Detonation," Luo Can couldn't help but think.
He left the Stone Chamber, feeling quite pleased with himself, and went to the lakeside. He took out his fishing rod and began his fishing Fishing. Gazing at the shimmering surface of the lake, he waited quietly.
"Um... do you still have that glue from before?" Just then, Xiong Da's deep, muffled voice came from behind him.
Without turning his head, Luo Can casually tossed a piece of Whale Rubber, about the size of a child's palm, towards Xiong Da: "This is all that's left, you can have it all."
Without any hesitation, Xiong Da shrunk instantly into a tiny bear the size of a palm, caught the Whale Rubber, and began to gnaw on it.
"It smells so good! It's even better than the Bee Queen Honey made by Ten Thousand Years Golden-Veined Bee of the Star Dou Forest!" Xiong Da mumbled between bites, his golden eyes filled with satisfaction and pleasure.
In no time, it had devoured the entire piece of Hundred-Thousand-Year Whale Rubber, its face still showing a lingering sense of satisfaction.
"I'm going to break through!"
After saying this, it jumped into the Fate-Defying Lake with a splash and sank to the bottom, falling into a deep sleep. At this moment, the energy within Xiong Da's body became fluctuating, and the life energy of the entire lake began to converge towards its body.
Luo Can looked at Xiong Da at the bottom of the lake, then looked up at the sky, and couldn't help but wonder, "If Xiong Da were to break through Hundred Thousand Years here, would the Spatial Barrier of the Fate Defying Valley be able to block the sensation of the Heavenly Tribulation?"
After all, the Spatial Barrier of the Fate Defying Valley can effectively block the detection of the Divine Realm, but the Heavenly Tribulation is a rule of heaven and earth set by the Dragon God back then, so he can't say for sure whether this barrier will work.
