Level 30

Lin Yu and Dugu Yan sank into cultivation together.

"Old Chrysanthemum, what Immortal Herb?" Dugu Bo quietly asked Yue Guan.

"What, aren't you the one who claims to be the Poison Overlord Continent? You don't know what an Immortal Herb is?" Yue Guan looked at Dugu Bo with amusement.

"Are you going to tell me or not?" Dugu Bo felt a bit embarrassed by Yue Guan's teasing.

"An Immortal Herb—a medicinal herb beyond the mundane, its effects far stronger than ordinary herbs. Such things should only exist in the heavens; rarely does one hear of them in the mortal world." Yue Guan gave Dugu Bo a mysterious smile.

However, upon hearing Yue Guan's words, Dugu Bo's expression turned somewhat grim.

"If you don't want to say it, then don't. I'm not that eager to hear it anyway." Dugu Bo turned his head to look at his granddaughter, Dugu Yan.

But just then, a massive surge of energy erupted from Ghost, who had been absorbing the Ghost Shadow Soul Flower.

"What's going on?" Sensing the aura emanating from Ghost, Dugu Bo's face grew extremely solemn.

Before this, he was no match for Ghost, but now Ghost made Dugu Bo feel utterly powerless to resist.

"I never expected Old Ghost to gain such a huge benefit from taking the Immortal Herb." Feeling the change in Ghost's aura, Yue Guan's face lit up with surprise.

Then, with a single flash, Yue Guan appeared beside Ghost.

And at that very moment, Ghost opened his eyes, a black beam shooting straight out from them.

"Chrysanthemum, I really have to thank you this time. This one Immortal Herb directly broke through my bottleneck at Level 95, bringing my Soul Power to Level 95 now." Ghost looked at Yue Guan excitedly.

A Titled Douluo—the pinnacle among Soul Masters. Once one became a Titled Douluo, raising Soul Power by even a single level was extremely difficult.

Titled Douluo were further divided into several minor tiers: Levels 91-95 were Titled Douluo, Levels 96-99 were Peak Douluo, and Level 99 was also known as Peerless Douluo.

To reach Level 95, an ordinary person would need several years, but a single Immortal Herb had directly shortened that time for Ghost by years.

"And that's not all—even my Martial Soul has changed." Ghost's Martial Soul manifested.

Before this, Ghost's Martial Soul had been nothing but a blurry shadow, but now it possessed a concrete form and facial features, and the aura emanating from it was far stronger than before.

"My Martial Soul has evolved. Before, reaching Level 96 was nothing but a pipe dream, but now I feel that reaching Level 96 or even higher has become effortless." Ghost shared his experience.

"Xiao Yu is also absorbing an Immortal Herb? Isn't it too early? After all, Immortal Herbs are effective even for Titled Douluo." Ghost looked at Lin Yu, who was absorbing a Soul Ring, and cast a reproachful glance at Yue Guan.

"Don't worry, it's not that one can only absorb a single Immortal Herb. The one Xiao Yu is absorbing now is only for Foundation Strengthening, so there's no problem at all." Yue Guan signaled Ghost to relax.

"By the way, I'm awake now. Can you absorb the Immortal Herb?" Ghost's gaze fell on Dugu Bo as he spoke calmly.

Hearing Ghost's words, Yue Guan said nothing and simply sat cross-legged beside Lin Yu, beginning to absorb the Singular Velvet Sky Chrysanthemum.

"Looks like you're quite lucky, finding a suitable Soul Bone so quickly." Ghost spoke to Dugu Bo in a flat tone.

"I didn't expect to find a Soul Bone this fast either." Although Dugu Bo was somewhat wary of Ghost's current strength, he still showed no sign of fear.

But Ghost seemed to see through Dugu Bo's concern. He merely glanced at Dugu Bo without doing anything, quietly waiting for Lin Yu and Yue Guan to awaken.

By now, Lin Yu had fully absorbed all the medicinal power of the Eight-Petal Immortal Orchid, and his Soul Power had reached Level 30.

"Indeed, the lower the level, the greater the benefit from absorbing an Immortal Herb. But this level wouldn't have encountered a bottleneck anyway. Give Xiao Yu some time, and even without the Immortal Herb, he could have reached Level 30. It's a bit of a waste after all." Ghost looked at the Soul Power fluctuations on Lin Yu and still felt a hint of regret.

Seeing Lin Yu's current Soul Power level, Dugu Bo's eyes nearly bulged out. He hadn't expected that Lin Yu, who had just absorbed his Second Soul Ring, had already reached Level 30.

"So this is the power of an Immortal Herb?" Dugu Bo swallowed his saliva, looking at Lin Yu with some envy.

At that moment, Dugu Yan also stood up, having fully absorbed her Second Soul Ring.

"Yan Yan, you successfully absorbed the Second Soul Ring?" Dugu Bo looked at Dugu Yan happily. Even though he already knew she had succeeded, he still felt joy.

"Mm, Grandpa, I'm Level 21 now." Dugu Yan also looked at her grandfather happily.

"Good, good. Then quickly absorb this Soul Bone and completely resolve the poison in your body." Dugu Bo naturally hadn't forgotten what Lin Yu had said when he first returned—asking Yue Guan to pick an Immortal Herb for Dugu Yan.

Just now, he had seen the change in Lin Yu after taking the Immortal Herb.

"No need to rush. Since Xiao Yu promised your granddaughter an Immortal Herb, he won't go back on his word." Just then, Yue Guan's voice came through.

The Immortal Herb Yue Guan absorbed was the Singular Velvet Sky Chrysanthemum, the same as his Martial Soul, so it was easier to absorb and naturally faster than Ghost's absorption.

At this point, Yue Guan's aura had also reached Level 95, and his Martial Soul had transformed, becoming even stronger.

Originally, Yue Guan's Martial Soul's development path should have been support-type, but he had forcibly cultivated it into a power attack-type Martial Soul, which had indirectly consumed a lot of his potential.

Otherwise, with a top-grade herb as his Soul Ring, how could Yue Guan have been stuck at the Level 95 bottleneck?

"Xiao Yu has now reached Level 30. Once we find a suitable Soul Ring for him, we'll head back to Martial Soul City first. We've been out long enough.

Your granddaughter can absorb the Soul Bone after we arrive at Martial Soul City." Yue Guan suddenly spoke.

But upon hearing Yue Guan's words, Dugu Bo hesitated.

"Don't worry, the Immortal Herb suitable for your granddaughter has already been chosen. No need to fret." Yue Guan naturally saw Dugu Bo's hesitation and spoke to dispel his doubts.

Hearing Yue Guan say this, Dugu Bo finally relaxed.

"Alright, then after we find a Soul Ring for this Holy Son you mentioned, we'll head to Martial Soul City." Dugu Bo was in high spirits after receiving Yue Guan's confirmation.

"There's no rush for my Soul Ring. After all, I've only just absorbed my Second Soul Ring. It's fine to let it settle before absorbing the next one. Even without absorbing a Soul Ring, it doesn't hinder continued cultivation.

Let's head back to Martial Soul City first. It's better to hand over the Immortal Herb suited for Teacher to him." Lin Yu, however, had no intention of obtaining his Third Soul Ring in the Sunset Forest.

Lin Yu had already planned ahead. For his Third Soul Ring, he intended to absorb the one that belonged to Tang San. Although the Man Faced Demon Spider's age was a bit low for Lin Yu, that soul beast possessed Tang San's first cheat—the infinitely evolvable External Soul Bone, the Eight Spider Lances.

Though Lin Yu didn't know exactly which soul beast it was, as long as he killed all Man Faced Demon Spiders of suitable age, Tang San wouldn't be able to obtain that Soul Bone!
