Meng Shu Level 90, Chao Tian Xiang Level 70! Star Dou Soul Hunt, 5000-Year Black Marsh Viper?

Huang Yan rose from the bed, washed up briefly, and pushed the door open to step outside.

In the courtyard, Dugu Bo was pacing back and forth anxiously; hearing the door open, he immediately hurried over.

"Young Master, did you rest well?

Yanyan, she..."

Before he could finish, a neatly dressed Dugu Yan stepped out from behind Huang Yan.

Dugu Bo's gaze sharpened as he instantly sensed the completely different aura emanating from his granddaughter, his old eyes widening in shock:

"Level forty?!"

Dugu Yan's pretty face flushed, and she lowered her head, explaining shyly:

"Yes, Grandfather.

Last night, the Young Master used his Ultimate Fire and Power of Light to cleanse my marrow and refine my essence.

Not only did he burn away the Jade Scale Snake Venom within me, but he also helped me break through the level thirty-nine bottleneck, raising my level by two in one go."

"Good, good, good!"

Dugu Bo exclaimed repeatedly, his aged face crinkling into a smile like a chrysanthemum; he was satisfied with this result to the extreme.

"The Young Master's methods are heaven-defying. To be able to serve the Young Master is truly a blessing you have cultivated over several lifetimes, girl!"

Dugu Bo paused, his expression turning solemn as he looked at Dugu Yan and instructed her earnestly:

"Yanyan, since you are now the Young Master's person, you must make a clean break with certain things.

The next time you return to the Imperial Fighting Team, you must draw a clear line between yourself and that Yu Tianheng!"

Dugu Bo snorted coldly, his tone filled with disdain:

"What is that Yu Tianheng anyway?

How could he even be mentioned in the same breath as the Young Master!

He isn't even fit to carry the Young Master's shoes!

Furthermore, those people from the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon family, every single one of them is arrogant and conceited.

I have long found them displeasing; they are nothing but an annoyance!"

"Rest assured, Grandfather, Yanyan understands."

Dugu Yan agreed without a moment's hesitation.

Recalling Huang Yan from last night, that vast, abyssal Ultimate Fire.

And that grand power that had thoroughly penetrated her body and mind to incinerate the toxins.

Dugu Yan's eyes were filled with deep infatuation and submission.

"Having seen a figure as godlike as the Young Master, how could Yanyan's eyes possibly hold anyone else?

That Yu Tianheng is nothing but a frog at the bottom of a well.

Once I return, I will sever all ties with him."

Huang Yan listened to the grandfather and granddaughter's declarations from the side and smiled faintly.

He did not hold that so-called genius of the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon family in any regard.

"Enough, let's end the idle talk here."

Huang Yan stood with his hands behind his back and commanded casually.

"Since Yanyan has also broken through to level forty, let us go together.

It just so happens that we can resolve both my fifth Spirit Ring and your fourth Spirit Ring in the Star Dou Great Forest."

As soon as he finished speaking, a series of hurried and excited footsteps echoed from outside the courtyard.

Meng Yiran, accompanied by Dragon Duke Meng Shu and Serpent Granny Chao Tianxiang, walked quickly into the main courtyard.

The moment they entered, Meng Shu and Chao Tianxiang knelt on one knee without hesitation, their expressions filled with overwhelming excitement:

"This old man Meng Shu (this old woman Chao Tianxiang), thanks the Young Master for the grace of your gift!

From this day forward, the Dragon and Serpent Family shall go through fire and water for the Young Master, and we shall not refuse even if it means death!"

Huang Yan raised his hand slightly:

"Rise and speak.

Judging by your auras, have you fully absorbed the medicinal power?"

Meng Shu stood up, his face glowing with health as if he had grown ten years younger, and reported in a booming voice:

"Reporting to the Young Master!

This old man has been stuck at level eighty-eight for many years and had thought that becoming a Titled Douluo was hopeless in this lifetime.

I never expected that after refining that Singular Velvet Sky Chrysanthemum, not only are all my hidden injuries gone, but..."

My spirit power has even broken through two levels in a row, and I have now officially reached the level ninety bottleneck!"

Chao Tianxiang also spoke up respectfully, her tone filled with joy:

"This old woman also owes it to the Nine-Grade Purple Ganoderma bestowed by the Young Master.

The medicinal power was gentle yet vast, helping me reshape my foundation, and I have now successfully broken through to level seventy!"

"Level ninety, level seventy...

Not bad, my medicinal herbs did not go to waste."

Huang Yan nodded in satisfaction, his gaze sweeping over the people before him.

Dugu Bo listened from the side, secretly startled.

The medicinal herbs this Young Master bestowed so casually could, in the span of a single night, create a quasi-Title Douluo and a quasi-Spirit Saint!

Such a foundation was simply unfathomable!

"Since that is the case, it is quite a coincidence."

A faint smile curled the corners of Huang Yan's mouth as he casually made arrangements.

"I need a fifth Spirit Ring, and Yanyan needs a fourth Spirit Ring.

Meng Shu, you need a ninth Spirit Ring to officially step into the realm of Title Douluo, and Chao Tianxiang also needs a seventh Spirit Ring to acquire an Avatar of Martial Soul."

Meng Shu and Chao Tianxiang exchanged a glance, both of them showing expressions of joy:

"Does the Young Master mean..."

"There is no need for further delay."

The Bright Phoenix wings behind Huang Yan suddenly unfurled, their brilliant radiance illuminating the entire courtyard.

"Since everyone needs Spirit Rings, let us go together.

Target: Star Dou Great Forest. We depart immediately!"

"Yes! We obey the Young Master's command!"

The group responded in unison, their momentum like a rainbow.

Half a day later, in the middle region of the Star Dou Great Forest.

Towering trees blotted out the sky and sun, and the surroundings were permeated with an ancient and dangerous aura.

Huang Yan retracted his wings and landed steadily.

Dugu Bo, Meng Shu, and the others followed closely behind, shielding Huang Yan in the center.

"The quality of the Spirit Beasts in this Star Dou Great Forest is indeed far beyond what the Sunset Forest can compare to."

Huang Yan scanned the surroundings and casually set the rules:

"From lowest to highest, we will first resolve the Spirit Rings for Yanyan and Chao Tianxiang, then find Meng Shu's, and finally find mine.

Yanyan, what type do you need?"

Dugu Yan stepped forward obediently and said in a soft voice:

"Replying to the Young Master, Yanyan's fourth Spirit Ring limit is around five thousand years; it would be best if it were a venomous snake-type Spirit Beast."

Chao Tianxiang also followed up with a respectful report:

"Young Master, this old woman needs a snake-type Spirit Beast between thirty thousand and fifty thousand years.

If it could lean toward toughness or speed, it would be of great benefit for me to condense my Avatar of Martial Soul."

Huang Yan nodded slightly and turned to look at Meng Shu:

"What about your ninth Spirit Ring? Do you have any thoughts?"

"This old man's martial soul is a Dragon-Head Cane. If I wish to bring its power to the extreme, the ninth Spirit Ring should ideally be a dragon-type or a variant snake-type Spirit Beast with true dragon bloodline, over seventy thousand years old."

A flicker of desire flashed in Meng Shu's eyes, but he quickly suppressed it.

"However, Spirit Beasts of this level are hard to come by, so I leave it entirely to the Young Master's decision."

"Since we are here, we must naturally find the most suitable ones."

Huang Yan's tone was indifferent, yet it carried an unquestionable dominance.

"As for my fifth Spirit Ring, Dugu Bo knows the requirements: a fire-type or light-type avian between seventy thousand and ninety thousand years."

Huang Yan waved his hand, issuing the order directly:

"Dugu Bo, Meng Shu.

The two of you will clear the path ahead, directly releasing your auras to deter low-level Spirit Beasts and speed up our progress.

If you encounter prey that meets the requirements, suppress it immediately."

"This Old Man obeys!"

"This Old One obeys!"

Dugu Bo and Meng Shu exchanged a glance, and the two powerhouses above level ninety simultaneously unleashed a terrifying pressure of spirit power.

In an instant, all low-level Spirit Beasts within a radius of several miles trembled in fear, fleeing frantically toward the periphery.

The group advanced toward the depths of the Star Dou Great Forest without any obstruction.

Approximately two hours later.

Dugu Bo, who was clearing the path ahead, suddenly stopped and raised a hand to signal everyone to halt.

"Young Master, there is movement five miles ahead."

A layer of eerie green light flickered in Dugu Bo's eyes. After sensing carefully for a moment, a smile curled at the corners of his mouth.

"Luck is on our side.

It is a Black Swamp Poison Viper with a cultivation of about four thousand five hundred years; it could not be more suitable to serve as Yanyan's fourth Spirit Ring."
