Yue Guan's Domain

Yue Guan's Martial Soul was the Singular Velvet Sky Chrysanthemum. Though he had never seen an Immortal Herb himself, he had pored over an illustrated guide to Immortal Herbs countless times.

How could he not know the value of the Singular Velvet Sky Chrysanthemum?

That was precisely why he understood even better how important this Immortal Herb would be to a Soul Master.

Indeed, after consuming it, he could take his strength a step further and might even achieve the Indestructible Diamond Body.

That was exactly why Yue Guan had wanted to save the Immortal Herb for Bibi Dong.

At his age, even if he became a Titled Douluo, his achievements in this life would still be limited.

But Xiao Dong was different.

She was an unprecedented genius, and she had Twin Martial Souls.

He had once studied Twin Martial Souls with Old Ghost and Xiao Dong, and together they had reached a vague conclusion.

As long as one's body was strong enough, it was possible to cultivate two Martial Souls.

The Singular Velvet Sky Chrysanthemum was far too well suited to Xiao Dong.

Though he didn't know what other Immortal Herbs might be in this valley, Yue Guan didn't think there could be one more suitable for Xiao Dong.

Besides, perhaps there weren't any other Immortal Herbs in this valley at all?

"Xiao Dong, you should take this Singular Velvet Sky Chrysanthemum!"

"This Immortal Herb will greatly improve your body. After that, Uncle Yue Guan will pass on all the insights he's gained from a lifetime of cultivation. With your talent, you'll surely be able to cultivate an Indestructible Diamond Body. Perhaps you'll be the first person in the entire Soul Master World to successfully cultivate Twin Martial Souls."

"Given your talent, it might even be possible for you to become a god one day."

"If you become a god, Old Ghost and I will benefit from your good fortune, too. As for breaking through to the Titled Douluo realm, I'm quite confident I can do that."

As Yue Guan spoke, he held out the Singular Velvet Sky Chrysanthemum to Bibi Dong.

Though his heart was filled with deep reluctance, Yue Guan knew this was the safest choice.

He had seen an Immortal Herb in this life. He could die without regrets.

How could he still dare to hope to claim it for himself?

"Uncle Yue Guan, since we found two Immortal Herbs here, that means there must be others."

"You should take one first and improve your strength!"

Bibi Dong had never expected Yue Guan to do this.

After all, this was an Immortal Herb.

And it was an Immortal Herb perfectly suited to his own Martial Soul.

Yue Guan clearly knew its value, yet he had still managed to resist its allure and give it to her instead.

Even Bibi Dong was deeply moved by such a gesture.

No matter how Bibi Dong refused, Yue Guan stood firm.

With no other choice, Bibi Dong asked Gui Mei to describe the general layout of the Ice and Fire Yin-Yang Well, then took out the Immortal Herb guide and had him identify the plants.

After Gui Mei confirmed that there were indeed more Immortal Herbs there, Yue Guan finally decided to consume the Singular Velvet Sky Chrysanthemum first.

They found a cave, and Gui Mei and Bibi Dong stood guard over Yue Guan.

During this time, Gui Mei seemed to want to say something, but held back.

In the end, he still didn't speak.

He couldn't shake the feeling that Xiao Dong knew what the valley looked like.

But how could a child of only twelve, who had never been here before, know about it?

Gui Mei couldn't make sense of it.

He wanted to know the answer, but after thinking it over, he decided to bury the question in his heart.

Xiao Dong had brought the two of them here. That alone proved she was worthy of their trust.

Some things simply didn't need to be investigated to the bitter end.

If he exposed the truth, it might only make things worse.

After that, the two of them stood guard.

Before they knew it, seven days had passed.

Over those seven days, Gui Mei could clearly feel Yue Guan's improvement.

His strength and bearing had both changed, and even his Martial Soul had undergone a qualitative transformation.

What Gui Mei found hardest to understand was that the Martial Soul Fusion Skill between him and Yue Guan had changed.

The subtle connection between them had become completely different.

Martial Soul Fusion Skills on Douluo Continent were generally divided into two types.

Yin-Yang Complementarity and Attribute Resonance.

He and Yue Guan belonged to the Yin-Yang Complementarity type: one was of extreme yin, the other of extreme yang.

Besides them, the most typical example of Yin-Yang Complementarity was the Star Luo Imperial Family's Martial Soul Fusion Skill between the White Tiger and the Hell Spirit Cat.

Attribute Resonance was the other type.

But no matter which type of Martial Soul Fusion Skill it was, there was always a distinction between primary and secondary.

The stronger Martial Soul took the lead.

The Star Luo Imperial Family was the clearest example of this, with the White Tiger Martial Soul in the lead.

But he and Yue Guan were a relatively rare case. They had stood as equals, with neither taking the lead.

After Yue Guan consumed the Immortal Herb, Gui Mei could feel that their Martial Soul Fusion Skill was still there, but Yue Guan had now taken the lead.

In other words, Yue Guan's Martial Soul quality had surpassed his.

Gui Mei had never expected this.

At that moment, a brilliant golden light burst from Yue Guan.

The golden light enveloped him, and he seemed to sink into an indescribably profound state.

"Is he about to achieve the Indestructible Diamond Body in one go?"

Bibi Dong couldn't help exclaiming in awe.

The Singular Velvet Sky Chrysanthemum was simply too perfectly suited to Yue Guan.

They waited another full seven days.

When Yue Guan opened his eyes again, he had undergone a complete transformation, as if he had been reborn.

Not only had his cultivation broken through to level 90, but an invisible force radiated from within him, suppressing everything around him.

"This is... a domain!"

"Yue Guan has actually mastered a domain!"

Gui Mei was stunned by the sight.

His eyes were filled with disbelief.

As for domains, even among the Spirit Hall worshippers, before Chen Jianjun joined them, only the Grand Elder, Qian Daoliu, had mastered one.

Even an existence like the Second Worship had not mastered a domain.

Though Gui Mei had heard that some people could cultivate a domain after birth, he knew Yue Guan's accumulated cultivation couldn't possibly let him master a domain at his current level.

That left only one possibility.

A domain born from Martial Soul Evolution.

Yue Guan's Martial Soul had now transformed from a top-tier Martial Soul into a super Martial Soul.

Only now did Gui Mei understand why Yue Guan had been so obsessed with these Immortal Herbs.

This stuff was truly heaven-defying.

"Old Ghost, it's not just a domain. I've also achieved the Indestructible Diamond Body."

"With a true Indestructible Diamond Body, I'm confident I could face a level 95 Titled Douluo even without obtaining my Ninth Soul Ring."

"That fellow Chen Xin won't be able to keep me in check anymore. He'll never break through my defenses again!"

Yue Guan threw back his head and laughed as he opened his eyes.

This single Immortal Herb had transformed him completely, inside and out.

He had never imagined any of this could happen, no matter what.
