Following the method Yu Nan had taught him, Dugu Bo carefully guided his Soul Power toward the Poison Pill in his abdomen.

At first, his Soul Power and the Poison Pill repelled each other somewhat.

But under Dugu Bo's powerful control of his spiritual power, the two began to slowly merge and rotate.

Hum...

A strange fluctuation emanated from Dugu Bo's body.

The surrounding air seemed to be drawn in, slowly swirling around him and forming a small energy vortex.

The heaven and earth energy within the Ice and Fire Yin-Yang Well seemed to answer a summons, surging toward Dugu Bo like mad.

Watching this, Yu Nan nodded in satisfaction.

"You're a quick learner."

"With the Soul Core backing him, plus those few Ten Thousand Year Soul Bones, this Old Poison Freak should just about be able to cross the threshold into Super Douluo."

"When the time comes, he'll at least be able to put up a fight against those two lackeys from Spirit Hall."

Having made arrangements for Dugu Bo, Yu Nan turned his gaze once more to Dugu Yan, who was absorbing the Soul Bone.

By now, Dugu Yan was wrapped in a dense cocoon of blue-gold light.

The thick cocoon of blue-gold light cracked apart inch by inch like an eggshell, transforming into specks of starlight that sank into Dugu Yan's body.

Dugu Yan slowly opened her eyes.

In an instant, two beams of brilliant blue light shot from them.

Deep within her originally eerie emerald-green eyes, a hint of blue-gold now gleamed, brimming with life and nobility.

Dugu Yan stood up, feeling so light she might float away. The Soul Power surging through her body now flowed endlessly, like mighty rivers.

Level 56!

Just one Soul Bone had raised her by three levels, sending her straight from Level 53 to Level 56!

And Dugu Yan could clearly feel that the benefits this Soul Bone had brought her went far beyond an increase in Soul Power.

Her body's resilience, the strength of her meridians, even her spiritual power had all been thoroughly washed and renewed.

"Grandpa!

I did it..."

Unable to contain her joy, Dugu Yan was just about to call out to Dugu Bo, who was some distance away, and share the good news.

But then Yu Nan's stern, low voice suddenly rang out in her mind:

"Quiet!

Don't make a sound!"

Dugu Yan's heart jolted. She swallowed the words that had been on the tip of her tongue and froze in place, bewildered and stunned.

"P-Predecessor?"

She cautiously called out to him in her mind.

"Look over there."

Yu Nan's voice rang out in her Sea of Consciousness, carrying a hint of gravity and anticipation.

Dugu Yan turned her head without thinking.

Several dozen meters away, Dugu Bo sat cross-legged.

But his current state was terrifying.

Centered on Dugu Bo, the surrounding air seemed to be churned violently by an invisible hand, forming a massive energy vortex dozens of meters across.

The extreme energies of red and white intertwined within the Ice and Fire Yin-Yang Well were being swept into the vortex like mad.

They poured endlessly into Dugu Bo's body.

Dugu Bo's face was flushed, his brows tightly knitted, as if he were enduring immense pressure.

But at his abdomen, a dazzling mass of emerald-green light had appeared, like a tiny sun in the making.

It gave off terrifying fluctuations that made one's heart tremble.

"What's happening to Grandpa...?"

Feeling that oppressive aura, Dugu Yan couldn't help but grow worried.

"He's condensing a Soul Core."

Yu Nan explained calmly:

"This is the crucial step that will decide whether he can break through his limits and enter the realm of Super Douluo.

This is the most critical moment. The slightest outside disturbance could cause him to fail at the last step—or even explode."

"A Soul Core?"

Dugu Yan blinked. It was a term she had never heard before.

"It's a profound technique of power that only those from ancient times, or a very few exceptionally gifted Titled Douluo, can master."

Yu Nan patiently explained:

"Put simply, it's the process of highly compressing Soul Power and condensing a second energy core inside the body.

Once he succeeds, your grandfather's recovery speed, explosive power, and control over his Soul Power will all undergo a qualitative leap."

"If he was a poisonous snake before, then after condensing a Soul Core, he'll be a true Poison Flood Dragon!"

At this, the worry in Dugu Yan's eyes instantly turned into intense delight and excitement.

Super Douluo!

It was a realm every Soul Master dreamed of reaching!

Her grandfather had been stuck around Level 91 or 92 for so many years, constantly plagued by the backlash of his poison.

Now not only had the poison been cured, he even had a chance to advance further!

Watching Dugu Bo struggle to hold on within the energy vortex as his aura continued to climb, Dugu Yan covered her mouth. Her eyes reddened, and gratitude toward Yu Nan filled her heart.

Without the predecessor, she and her grandfather would still be struggling along that dead-end path. How could they have come by such good fortune today?

"Enough with the self-congratulation."

Yu Nan seemed to see right through Dugu Yan's thoughts. His voice remained lazy:

"That Old Poison Freak has deep reserves, and he has this treasured land of ice and fire to help him. Condensing a Soul Core is dangerous, but he has a good chance of succeeding. Just watch quietly."

As he spoke, Yu Nan shifted the conversation, bringing his attention back to Dugu Yan:

"What about you? You absorbed that Hundred Thousand Year Blue Silver Emperor right leg bone. How does it feel?

What Soul Skills did it give you?"

At the mention of the Soul Bone, Dugu Yan immediately composed herself. She closed her eyes and carefully sensed the surging blue-gold energy in her right leg.

A moment later, she opened her eyes again, the corners of her mouth lifting with barely contained excitement:

"Predecessor, this Soul Bone... it's simply perfect!"

"It gave me two Soul Skills."

Dugu Yan held up two fingers, her voice trembling slightly with excitement:

"I've named the first Soul Skill 'Revival.'"

"Revival..."

Yu Nan quietly repeated the name in his Sea of Consciousness, sounding as though he understood.

"Not bad. The name fits.

The Blue Silver Emperor is the ruler among Plant-type Soul Beasts, its vitality unrivaled beneath the heavens.

Since this Soul Bone came from it, it makes sense that it would have top-tier healing abilities."

"What exactly does it do?"

Dugu Yan took a deep breath, her eyes gleaming with confidence:

"As long as I'm not dead, even if I lose a limb, I can regrow it in a short time as long as I have enough Soul Power!

And this Soul Skill doesn't just work on me; I can use it on others, too. Its effects are somewhat reduced, but it's still enough to pull someone on the brink of death back from the gates of hell!"

"Mm, that's about what I expected."

Yu Nan gave a slight nod.

Wasn't this just a version of Tang San's Wildfire Cannot Burn It Out, Spring Breeze Blows Again from the original story?

That kid Tang San liked to show off his literary flair, while Dugu Yan was more straightforward and simply called it "Revival."

But this ability really was heaven-defying.
