Sky Frost Sword's Second Advancement!

Lin Qingfeng and Qian Shu felt a complex mix of emotions in their hearts.

Seeing their son possess such outstanding talent naturally made them happy, but soon, worry began to set in.

They knew that a son with such exceptional talent would inevitably face extreme dangers in the future.

As parents, they did not ask for Lin Fan to be incredibly powerful or to reach any specific realm; they only wanted their son to live a peaceful, happy, and fulfilling life.

It was completely different from the way Tang Hao neglected his own child!

Therefore, the more talent Lin Fan displayed, the more worried Lin Qingfeng and Qian Shu became.

Dugu Bo was about to leave when he suddenly paused and asked, "Seeing all of you in such a rush, are you planning to obtain a Spirit Ring for Yan'er?"

"Would you like me to come along?"

"Sure."

Faced with Dugu Bo's proposal, Lin Fan agreed immediately.

A free bodyguard—it would be a waste not to take him!

Moreover, with Dugu Bo present, Lin Fan could attempt to venture deeper into the Star Dou Forest. If he remembered correctly, although the Ten Great Fierce Beasts were still in slumber during this period, ten-thousand-year Spirit Beasts were not uncommon.

Any beast capable of cultivating to the ten-thousand-year level belonged to a fairly powerful race. If he could manage to capture a few and refine them into Martial Spirits and Spirit Rings, they would definitely fetch a sky-high price.

As for replacing his parents' Martial Spirits?

They were already accustomed to their own, and their original Martial Spirits were not weak, so there was no need for a change.

Simply advancing them would suffice!

He had been busy lately, but he could take advantage of the time before they set off for the Star Dou Forest tomorrow to advance his parents' Martial Spirits.

Having made up his mind, Lin Fan smiled immediately: "Then, Brother, why don't you take Yan'er to rest first? We shall set off tomorrow."

"Very well."

Dugu Bo then looked toward Prince Xue Xing and said, "You have nothing urgent to attend to these few days, so I will take my granddaughter to hunt for a Spirit Ring."

Although Prince Xue Xing had saved Dugu Bo's life, he was a smart man who knew that a Title Douluo must be granted freedom, so he agreed at once: "If Master Dugu has important matters, please attend to them."

"I also hope Yan'er can obtain a decent Spirit Ring."

Soon, only Lin Fan's family, along with Qian Ying and Gu Chen, remained in the hall.

"Dad, Mom, since we have time today, shall I advance your Martial Spirits?"

Lin Fan said softly: "Dad, didn't you say that due to the limitations of your Martial Spirit, you couldn't step into the Spirit Douluo realm? After today, you won't have to worry about that anymore."

"Ah? The gap in our realms is so vast; can you really advance our Martial Spirits?"

Lin Qingfeng immediately revealed a look of astonishment.

"I didn't advance them earlier because I wasn't certain."

Lin Fan nodded: "After continuously advancing the Martial Spirits for Dugu Yan and Sister Chen, I have figured it out. Advancing someone else's Martial Spirit does not consume much of my spirit power."

"You also advanced Chen's Martial Spirit? Then you two..."

As these words fell, Lin Qingfeng and Qian Shu's expressions changed drastically.

They had assumed that Lin Fan needed to be intimate with others to advance their Martial Spirits.

"Dad, Mom, you're overthinking it."

Lin Fan laughed: "I only made Dugu Yan take off her clothes to tease her; normal spirit power advancement doesn't require that at all. If you don't believe me, you can ask Sister Chen."

"That's right."

Gu Chen replied in a low voice: "Brother Fan just had me take a nap, and my Martial Spirit was successfully advanced."

"So that's how it is!"

"That's a relief."

Lin Qingfeng and Qian Shu let out a soft sigh of relief, though soon after, Lin Qingfeng's expression turned strange again.

"You... you treated Dugu Yan like that; aren't you afraid of Dugu Bo? And aren't you afraid of Dugu Yan finding out?"

At this moment, Lin Qingfeng and Qian Shu exchanged glances, unable to hide their surprise.

Their son was exceptionally precocious and acted with maturity and steadiness, yet he teased Dugu Yan like that—could it be... that he wanted to marry her?

In that case... might Dugu Yan become their daughter-in-law in the future?

"What is there to be afraid of?"

Lin Fan curled his lips: "When I advance others' spirits in the future, I'll just have them take off their clothes too, won't I?"

"Alright, enough nonsense. Dad, Mom, I'm advancing your Martial Spirits—why don't you join in, Aunt? That way, our whole family's strength can improve!"

"Mm."

Hearing that they could advance their Martial Spirits without any of those messy requirements, Lin Qingfeng, Qian Shu, and Qian Ying naturally would not refuse.

Although it felt a bit awkward to rely on their junior to improve their strength, the moment they thought about the advancement of their Martial Spirits, they threw that awkwardness to the back of their minds.

As long as it could increase his strength, what was there to fear regarding a little awkwardness?

Finding a spacious room, Lin Fan didn't dawdle. He had his parents and aunt close their eyes and sit cross-legged on the floor, then activated his Evolution Light martial soul, reaching out to tap their foreheads in succession.

Hum—

BOOM!

With one Soul Douluo and two Soul Saints, their martial souls entered an advanced state, and their soul power erupted.

Fortunately, Dugu Bo was right there in the house. Though he didn't know what was happening, he simply waved his hand to dissipate the surging wave of soul power.

Lines of text that surprised Lin Fan appeared before him.

[Frost Sword martial soul successfully evolved into Sky Frost Sword. It renders the Soul Master immune to extreme cold and grants the power to control frost. Added trait: Rampant Chill. Every sword swing, even without utilizing a soul ring, releases astonishing cold, inflicting a state of fear upon targets and carrying a chance to freeze them solid.]

[Azure Deer martial soul successfully evolved into Seven-Colored Divine Deer. It increases the Soul Master's physical constitution and grants a special ability: Prayer. It can restore a target's—or the user's own—soul power and vitality to their peak state!]

"!!!"

"Sky Frost Sword? If I remember correctly, isn't that Wu Zhangkong's martial soul later on? Wait... could it be that my Lin Clan ancestors were the ancestors of Wu Zhangkong? Perhaps later on, the Lin Clan only had daughters who married into other families, leading to a change in surname?"

"..."

Lin Fan was quite surprised; he hadn't expected his father's martial soul to have such impressive effects after evolving.

As for the evolution of the Azure Deer, it was even more heaven-defying. Being able to restore soul power and vitality directly to their peak was equivalent to gaining an extra life!

[Ding!]

[Since both the Sky Frost Sword martial soul and the Seven-Colored Divine Deer martial soul have met the conditions, would you like to record them into the host's martial souls?]

"Record!"

One was a control-type martial soul with decent damage, and the other was an invincible, heaven-defying support-type martial soul—how could Lin Fan possibly refuse?

At the very least, these martial souls were all more powerful than the Jade Jade Dragon.

From this, it was clear that the talent of Lin Fan's family—or at least the martial souls they inherited—surpassed the Jade Jade Dragon.

However, that also had to do with Dugu Yan. If he were to evolve Dugu Bo's Jade Phosphorous Serpent Emperor, it would likely become even more formidable.

Of course, there was no rush for such things.

Currently, Lin Fan's relationship with Dugu Bo wasn't exactly close; at the very least, Dugu Bo hadn't even mentioned the Ice and Fire Yin-Yang Well to him.

When the time came that Dugu Bo was willing to hand over the Ice and Fire Yin-Yang Well and truly treat Lin Fan like a brother, it wouldn't be too late to evolve his martial soul then.

In any case, with Lin Fan's current strength, let alone his peers, even young geniuses in their twenties wouldn't be his match!

The further they went, the greater the gap between them and Lin Fan would become, so Lin Fan was in no hurry.

At this moment, Lin Fan only wanted to enter the Star Dou Forest again to see if he could capture some ten-thousand-year soul beasts!

Martial souls and soul rings at the ten-thousand-year soul beast level... those were what you called valuable!

While he was at it, he also wanted to evolve his Poké Ball again. He wondered if it would turn into something like a Master Ball, capable of capturing pets with a one-hundred-percent success rate!

When that time came, let alone Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Beasts, even million-year soul beasts wouldn't be impossible to capture!
