Just after leaving the Ice and Fire Yin-Yang Well.

Dugu Bo gifted the Wishful Treasure Pouch to Dugu Ce.

Dugu Ce placed the many immortal herbs he had gathered inside it.

"The Octagonal Mysterious Ice Grass and the Infernal Delicate Apricot.

If these two are refined in tandem with the Ice and Fire Yin-Yang Well, one can cultivate the 'Ice and Fire Golden Body,' rendering the body impervious to water and fire."

Dugu Ce stared at the Wishful Treasure Pouch, his spiritual power probing within.

Looking at the immortal herbs inside, a flicker of desire flashed through his eyes, but he immediately shook his head.

"But that would require at least half a month of deep seclusion.

To go to True Dragon Mountain to collect my debt, I do not wish to wait even a moment longer."

Golden Crocodile Douluo stood with his hands behind his back, praising him:

"Not bad. The essence of vengeance lies in having a clear and unobstructed intent.

If you were to wait half a month, that fierce edge would likely dissipate quite a bit."

"Therefore, I intend to refine this one first."

Dugu Ce took out the Full Moon Wearing Autumn Dew.

"This item can significantly enhance spiritual power and cleanse the eyes; it will have a miraculous effect on my current control over my soul skills.

It will also raise the upper limit of the age of soul rings I can absorb in the future."

Once a soul ring reaches the ten-thousand-year level, the requirements for a soul master's spiritual power increase drastically.

The Full Moon Wearing Autumn Dew could substantially raise this threshold.

Dugu Bo nodded:

"That is fine. Your strength has been increasing too rapidly; you indeed need to bolster your spiritual power to stabilize your foundation."

Dugu Ce stopped talking, sat cross-legged beside Dugu Xuan, and dripped the dew into his eyes.

"Master, Grand-uncle, please wait for me a moment."

Dugu Ce closed his eyes, and the soul power around his body began to rhythmically pulse.

Golden Crocodile Douluo watched the scene of the grandfather and grandson cultivating side by side, a playful smile appearing at the corner of his mouth:

"One level ninety-nine, two Title Douluo, plus a genius bearing immortal herbs and rare treasures.

The Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan is truly going to become the 'Rotten Lightning Dead Dragon' clan."

Dugu Bo let out a cold, sinister laugh, emerald light flickering in his eyes:

"This old man can no longer wait to see that old scoundrel Yu Yuanzhen trembling under the Nine Nether Underworld Fire and the Jade Phosphorous Serpent Emperor's poison."

After a while.

Dugu Xuan suddenly opened his eyes, a formidable aura of soul power erupting from his body.

"Level ninety-two peak!"

Dugu Xuan laughed heartily:

"This Hundred Thousand Year Soul Bone not only repaired my foundation but also gave me a qualitative realization of the Nine Nether Poison Flood Dragon's power.

Big Brother, our soul power levels as brothers will likely be on par before long!"

Dugu Xuan was confident that he could break through to level 93 in the short time to come.

Dugu Bo was also full of joy:

"Good, very good!

With two Douluo in our Dugu family, let's see who dares to call us a family of venomous insects anymore!"

At the same time, Dugu Ce also slowly opened his eyes.

Deep within his pupils, beneath the original emerald and golden light, a layer of deep, autumn-water-like purple faintly shimmered.

Dugu Ce exhaled a breath of turbid air.

He felt as though every rustle of wind and grass within several miles was clearly visible in his mind; he could even capture the subtle fluctuations of soul power in the air.

"Ce'er, how do you feel?"

Golden Crocodile Douluo asked with concern.

"My spiritual power has undergone a qualitative change."

Dugu Ce stood up, feeling the expansion of his sea of consciousness.

"Master, I possess Twin Martial Souls, so my spiritual power is naturally stronger than those of the same rank; before this refinement, it was already at the high stage of a Soul King.

Now, thanks to the power of this Full Moon Wearing Autumn Dew, my spiritual power has crossed the chasm and is sufficient to rival a high-stage Soul Saint!"

"Soul Saint-level spiritual power?"

A flash of astonishment crossed Golden Crocodile Douluo's eyes.

"Good!

The stronger your spiritual power, the more adept you will become at controlling martial soul fusion and soul skill transitions.

Brother Xuan, hurry and let us witness that hundred-thousand-year soul skill!"

Dugu Xuan did not hesitate, the vibrant red soul ring behind him erupting with brilliant light:

"This hundred-thousand-year soul ring has granted me two soul skills.

The first is called 'Nine Nether Yellow Spring Poison', a wide-range toxic domain. Once contaminated, not only does the physical body rot, but even the soul is frozen by the aura of the Nine Nethers.

The second is called 'Poison Dragon Soul-Locking Bind', an ultimate single-target crowd control skill. Even a Titled Douluo, once bound, would struggle to move a muscle for a full second!"

Dugu Xuan paused, lifted his right leg, and the red light flickered once more:

"And this soul bone has likewise bestowed upon me two divine skills.

The first is 'Nether Dragon Shadow Step', which allows me to achieve near-teleportation bursts of movement over short distances, leaving behind toxic afterimages.

The second is 'Nine Nether Destruction Strike', which concentrates all my poison power into my right leg. The resulting powerful blow is enough to shatter the defenses of a defense-type Douluo of the same rank!"

"Control, domain, displacement, burst... it's all there!"

Dugu Bo's eyes shone with excitement, and he couldn't help but rub his hands together:

"Brother Xuan, with these four divine skills, combined with my Jade Phosphorous Serpent Emperor poison.

If we join forces, I fear even that old scoundrel Yu Yuanzhen would have to shed a layer of skin!"

Dugu Ce put away his Wishful Treasure Pouch, his eyes cold as iron:

"Grandfather's strength has already stabilized.

Master, Great-Uncle, let us depart.

Tiandou City, Blue Tyrant Academy... that 'fiancée' of mine, my 'medicine ingredient', must have been waiting for quite some time."

Although in name, Liu Erlong was still Dugu Ce's aunt.

But when it concerned his own life, even if Liu Erlong did not openly belong to the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Sect, this matter was not up to her!

Dugu Ce moved with lightning speed, his hands blurring into afterimages.

He harvested the remaining Aromatic Silk Beauty, the rest of the Eight-Petal Immortal Orchid, and a vast quantity of top-tier medicinal herbs.

"From this day on, only the spring water remains in this precious land."

Dugu Ce tucked the final jade box into his Wishful Treasure Pouch.

Dugu Bo looked at the empty lakeshore and chuckled:

"Rest assured, before I leave, I will reinforce the poison formation.

Without my token, anyone below the rank of Titled Douluo who enters will die."

"Let's go."

Golden Crocodile Douluo flicked his large sleeve, and a surging golden light enveloped the three of them.

The four figures transformed into a shooting star, streaking directly toward Tiandou City.

Tiandou City, the back mountain of Blue Tyrant Academy.

Sensing the terrifying pressure hurtling toward her from afar, Liu Erlong, who had been resting in the woods, suddenly stood up, her eyes filled with shock.

"Such terrifying auras!

Is that... a Titled Douluo?

No, more than one!"

The words had barely left her lips when four figures descended like divine soldiers, landing steadily in the forest clearing.

Liu Erlong saw who they were, her gaze landing on Dugu Bo as her brows furrowed tightly:

"Poison Douluo?

What is your intention in bringing people to trespass into the forbidden grounds of my Blue Tyrant Academy?"

Dugu Ce stepped out from behind Golden Crocodile Douluo, looking at this "aunt" in name only, his tone flat:

"Aunt Erlong, it has been many years; you still have such a fiery temper."

"Dugu Ce?"

Liu Erlong was stunned, her expression shifting instantly.

"Aren't you at Martial Soul Hall?

And... who are these two?"

Liu Erlong looked toward Dugu Xuan and Golden Crocodile Douluo.

The pressure radiating from these superiors made the Fire Dragon Martial Soul within her tremble.

"I am Dugu Xuan, titled Nine Nether."

Dugu Xuan stepped forward, and nine soul rings rose from beneath him.
