Huang Yan sat cross-legged with his eyes closed, crimson flames surging around his body.

The overbearing medicinal power of the Cockscomb Phoenix Sunflower transformed into rolling heat, rampaging through his body as it attempted to further purify his Fire Phoenix bloodline.

However, Huang Yan's fire attribute had already reached its limit, with no room left to advance.

Without hesitation, Huang Yan guided this vast and pent-up medicinal energy.

He launched a fierce assault toward the trace of Radiant aura lurking deep within his bloodline.

Not long after, a brilliant, sacred golden light suddenly bloomed amidst the pure crimson flames on Huang Yan's body.

Accompanied by a high-pitched, clear phoenix cry, the phantom of the Fire Phoenix behind Huang Yan soared into the sky.

A layer of dazzling, brilliant gold radiance rapidly covered its originally crimson feathers.

Huang Yan slowly opened his eyes, gold and red lights flashing across his pupils before fading, and he exhaled a breath of stale air.

"Yan'er, did you succeed?"

Azure Luan Douluo stared intently at the phoenix phantom bathed in dual gold and red flames, his gaze burning.

"I succeeded."

Huang Yan stood up and nodded with satisfaction.

"With the help of the Cockscomb Phoenix Sunflower's medicinal power, I have successfully fully awakened the latent Radiant attribute.

Now, my Martial Soul is no longer a simple Fire Phoenix, but a dual-attribute of fire and light: the Radiant Phoenix!"

"Radiant Phoenix... a dual attribute of fire and light?"

Dugu Bo stood to the side, listening in stunned silence, muttering to himself.

"I have lived for so many years, but today I have truly seen something new..."

Shui Bing'er stepped forward quickly, feeling the increasingly unfathomable aura on Huang Yan, and said with pleasant surprise:

"Huang Yan, has your soul power broken through again?"

Huang Yan nodded:

"Yes, I broke through the bottleneck directly and reached level sixty."

"Level sixty?"

Dugu Bo was taken aback.

"That immortal herb's medicinal power was so fierce, and it only raised you by two levels?"

"It is not just two levels."

Huang Yan chuckled and explained.

"I have not yet fully refined and absorbed the medicinal power of the Cockscomb Phoenix Sunflower; the current level sixty is because I hit a bottleneck and got stuck.

Once I absorb my sixth soul ring, the residual medicinal power accumulated in my body will be completely released.

Conservatively estimated, I can still increase my soul power by another two levels on top of the current foundation."

"In other words, as long as you obtain a soul ring, you can reach level sixty-two directly?"

A brilliant light shone in Azure Luan Douluo's eyes as he laughed heartily.

"Good!

What a magnificent Radiant Phoenix!

As a level sixty Soul Emperor, with your current foundation of extreme dual attributes, even if you encounter a Soul Douluo, you will definitely have the power to fight!"

Dugu Bo was completely numb on the side, shaking his head with a bitter smile:

"Freaks... truly a pair of thorough little monsters..."

As Huang Yan and Shui Bing'er both completed their transformations, Dugu Bo, as an outsider, began to appear quite conspicuous.

Azure Luan Douluo also knew that if he were to refine an immortal herb himself.

During that period, the safety of Huang Yan and Shui Bing'er would depend on Dugu Bo, whom he had been suppressing.

Azure Luan Douluo withdrew his gaze from his disciple and slowly turned his head to look at Dugu Bo, who had been standing on the edge the entire time.

Being stared at by a peak level ninety-seven Douluo, Dugu Bo's heart tightened violently, and cold sweat seeped from his forehead once again.

The immortal herbs had been plucked, the formation had been broken, and now these two little monsters had gained immense benefits.

Could it be that this Azure Luan Douluo intended to burn the bridge after crossing it and silence him?

However, Azure Luan Douluo did not attack directly, but instead looked at Huang Yan and asked indifferently:

"Yan'er, this old Poison Douluo's herb garden has fulfilled you both.

How do you think we should deal with him next?"

Hearing this, Dugu Bo's heart jumped into his throat, and he looked at Huang Yan nervously.

His life, as the dignified Poison Douluo, was now actually being held in the hands of this junior.

Huang Yan looked at the tense Dugu Bo and began to calculate in his mind.

Killing Dugu Bo would certainly be simple, but it would be of no benefit.

The best solution right now is to completely bring him into the fold.

After all, he clearly understands the agony of the Jade Phosphorous Serpent poison's backlash, as well as the perfect method to neutralize it.

This alone is enough to make Dugu Bo weep with gratitude and pledge his absolute loyalty.

Thinking of this, Huang Yan's lips moved slightly as he transmitted his voice directly to Azure Luan Douluo:

"Teacher, keeping him alive is more useful than killing him.

I know the method to neutralize the Jade Phosphorous Serpent poison; not only can I cure the poison in his body, but I can also save his granddaughter.

I want to take this opportunity to recruit him and put him to use for our Martial Soul Hall."

A flash of surprise crossed Azure Luan Douluo's eyes, and he replied via voice transmission:

"You can even cure his Jade Phosphorous Serpent poison, which is said to be incurable?"

"I have ten-tenths certainty."

Huang Yan replied with conviction.

Azure Luan Douluo nodded slightly, a look of admiration appearing in his eyes as he transmitted back:

"A good plan.

Dugu Bo is the only free Title Douluo on the continent without any faction affiliation.

If we can make him willingly join Martial Soul Hall, it will not only increase the strength of our Hall, but spreading the news will also greatly enhance our prestige.

Proceed as you said; this old man will hold the line for you."

Once the two had finished their secret exchange, Azure Luan Douluo withdrew his pressure.

Only then did Huang Yan turn his head, his gaze calm as he looked at the anxious and uneasy Dugu Bo.

Looking at Dugu Bo, Huang Yan spoke slowly:

"Senior Dugu, there is no need to be nervous.

We of Martial Soul Hall are not unreasonable people."

Dugu Bo gave two dry laughs, not daring to respond, and instead asked tentatively:

"Then I wonder... how does the little brother intend to deal with this old man?"

Huang Yan went straight to the point:

"I want to make a deal with you, Senior.

A deal concerning your life, and the life of your granddaughter, Dugu Yan."

A must-have for every transmigrator: the Immortal Herb redemption code!

Although the Immortal Herbs now belonged to them, since they were already here, this sense of ritual had to be performed regardless.

Dugu Bo's expression changed drastically, his eyes instantly turning sharp:

"What do you mean by that?!"

Huang Yan said unhurriedly:

"Whenever it is overcast or raining, you feel a numbing itch in your ribs, and it gradually intensifies.

At midnight, you also experience needle-like stabs of pain in the crown of your head and the soles of your feet.

Your whole body spasms, and the pain is unbearable.

Am I right?"

Dugu Bo was struck as if by lightning; he retreated two steps and blurted out:

"You... how could you know?!

This is this old man's greatest secret!"

Huang Yan chuckled:

"The Jade Phosphorous Serpent poison is a deadly toxin, yet your Dugu family's inherited Martial Soul cannot immunize you against it.

You are powerful and can use your soul power to forcibly suppress it, but what about your granddaughter?

She should already have the poison deep in her marrow by now, right?

If left untreated, she will definitely not live past thirty."

Hearing about his granddaughter, Dugu Bo's defenses completely crumbled, his voice trembling slightly:

"Since you know so clearly... could it be that you have a way to cure it?!"

"Of course."

Huang Yan nodded confidently.

"I can not only cure your poison but also your granddaughter's.

I can even help your poison arts advance further and completely rid you of the suffering of the backlash."

Dugu Bo's breathing grew rapid as he stared fixedly at Huang Yan:

"Why should this old man believe you?

I have played with poison my entire life and couldn't cure it, yet a mere greenhorn like you..."
