Breakthroughs Abound, Spirit Hall's Strength Soars

"For us?"

"Xiao Feng, this is far too precious. We cannot accept such a gift without merit."

Tuoba Yunhai instinctively refused. Ten-thousand-year spirit medicines were incredibly precious; if one appeared on the market, people would fight desperately over it.

Though the Tuoba family was not among the very top families, they were not the sort to covet petty advantages.

Since they had done nothing of substance, they naturally would not take the fruits of another's labor. That was the pride flowing through their veins from the Dragon Clan bloodline.

The Holy Dragon Sect at this point in time still had considerable integrity, so it was not as brainless as in the original story.

"Uncle, listen to me. You must accept these two ten-thousand-year spirit medicines."

"They are gifts of filial respect for you and my grandfather."

"Although these two ten-thousand-year spirit medicines cannot compare to Immortal Herbs, they contain quite a bit of Dragon Clan bloodline."

The two herbs Ling Feng took out resembled ginseng.

They were entirely blood-red and were also known as Blood Dragon Ginseng.

Of course, there was an Immortal Herb above Blood Dragon Ginseng, called Crystal Blood Dragon Ginseng.

"But these are simply too precious."

"Uncle, we are family. You have always stayed by my side and worked tirelessly."

"Besides, once you become stronger, I will be safer as well. Don't you want to break through to Titled Douluo in this lifetime and see the scenery beyond?"

"My grandfather has also been stuck at Rank 89 for so many years. Breaking through has been his lifelong wish, and as his junior, I naturally have to help him fulfill it."

"Taking a step back, once the two of you both break through to Titled Douluo, won't you have plenty of chances to repay me?"

Hearing this, Tuoba Yunhai fell silent as well.

An opportunity that could allow him to hope for a breakthrough into the Titled Douluo realm in this lifetime was being placed right before him.

Did he want it?

Everyone had selfish desires. Of course he wanted it, and he was no exception.

What was more, this was from his own nephew. Even if he accepted it, outsiders would have nothing to gossip about.

Once he became stronger in the future, there would always be opportunities to repay him.

Having thought it through, Tuoba Yunhai accepted the two ten-thousand-year Blood Dragon Ginseng.

"Very well, I'll accept them for now."

"Your grandfather breaking through to Titled Douluo is practically a certainty now."

Ling Feng nodded, then sat cross-legged and began cultivating.

He was in no hurry to distribute Immortal Herbs suitable for Qian Renxue and Jin Chen.

If anything went wrong while absorbing the Immortal Herbs, it was not something he could stop. He had to wait until the elders of the Worship Hall were free.

Meanwhile, the Worship Hall presented an entirely different scene.

No one had left earlier, and Dugu Bo had entered shortly after Ling Feng departed.

Everyone sat cross-legged in cultivation, terrifying auras radiating from their bodies.

Only Qian Daoliu sat before the Angel God Statue, standing guard over them.

He paced back and forth without pause, his eyes filled with gratification.

With his insight, he could naturally sense that everyone was about to break through their bottlenecks and reach higher realms.

As long as their closed-door cultivation succeeded, Spirit Hall would welcome its most prosperous era since its founding.

And the one who had brought all this about was merely a six-year-old child.

"That little Ling Feng truly is no ordinary person. When wind and rain came, he transformed into a dragon."

"If he encountered the right opportunity in the future, this boy might even have a chance to become a god."

"Xue'er was born with Soul Power Level 20, an opportunity bestowed by the Angel God. Most likely, the Angel God will reappear in this generation. If the two of them can come together, it may become a fine tale as well."

Qian Daoliu made up his mind. Although Ling Feng and his granddaughter were both not yet seven, he still needed to speed things along.

After all, people on the Douluo Continent matured very early due to Soul Power, and cases of marrying and having children at twelve were not uncommon.

As Qian Daoliu pondered this, the night had already reached its latter half.

Tuoba Yue'er was the first to awaken.

Though everyone had absorbed Immortal Herbs, Immortal Herbs differed in grade and medicinal effect.

The Silver Scale Dragon Tongue Orchid she had consumed was not especially old, but it was the most compatible with her White Armored Earth Dragon Martial Soul.

When Tuoba Yue'er awoke, her Soul Power had risen from Rank 75 to Rank 79, and she could even break through Rank 80 in a short time.

She opened her eyes and carefully sensed the changes within herself.

With her innate Rank 8 Soul Power, even if she could break through to Titled Douluo, it would only have happened many years later.

But with the support of the Silver Scale Dragon Tongue Orchid, she felt that her cultivation talent had improved somewhat.

More importantly, after Martial Soul Possession, her White Armored Earth Dragon Martial Soul had undergone subtle changes.

The White Armored Earth Dragon Martial Soul was normally covered in a layer of white scales, but the scales covering Tuoba Yue'er's Martial Soul had now become a dazzling silver-white.

Brilliant and eye-catching, they reflected strange colors beneath the radiance emitted by the Angel God Statue.

Soon after, Yue Guan awakened as well.

The Singular Velvet Sky Chrysanthemum he absorbed was identical to his Martial Soul, reaching one hundred percent compatibility.

Thus, after absorbing it, he rose directly from Rank 92 to Rank 95.

"Thank you, Great Enshrined, for standing guard."

"Mm. Yue Guan, how do you feel?"

Qian Daoliu asked, for Yue Guan was the only person present whose Immortal Herb was identical to his Martial Soul.

"Reporting to the Great Enshrined, I will certainly break through to Rank 96 Titled Douluo within three years. Reaching Rank 98 in this lifetime will not be a problem."

"Good, good, good! It seems the Worship Hall will gain another enshrined."

Qian Daoliu laughed heartily. Chrysanthemum Douluo Yue Guan was half a generation younger than these old men, which meant Spirit Hall's next generation would also have a powerhouse capable of holding the fort.

A Rank 98 Titled Douluo was enough to support a massive faction anywhere.

Yue Guan did not leave. Instead, he stepped aside and observed the others' conditions.

Such a great opportunity as absorbing Immortal Herbs was something ordinary people could never encounter in their entire lives. He was determined to observe it closely.

The next to awaken was Qiangu Xiaoye. Without question, his Soul Power Level had broken through to Rank 90.

Moreover, the black dragon coiled around the Coiling Dragon Staff had become even more imposing and ferocious, its aura growing stronger as well.

He opened his eyes and carefully sensed every change in himself.

Over the following three hours, enshrineds continuously awakened.

The first were the two enshrineds, Qian Jun and Jiang Mo. Without question, both had broken through to the strength of Rank 97 Titled Douluo.

Afterward, Guang Ling, Azure Luan, and Xiongshi opened their eyes almost simultaneously. When the three broke through, all of Spirit City sensed it.

Countless Soul Masters gazed toward the Worship Hall. The immense pressure brought by three Titled Douluo breaking through to Rank 98 together was surely something every Soul Master had never witnessed in their lives.

Finally, Golden Crocodile Douluo still sat cross-legged, the aura around his body fluctuating between strong and weak as he continuously tested the bottleneck of Peerless Douluo.

Everyone held their breath, their attention entirely fixed on Golden Crocodile Douluo.

A Rank 99 Peerless Douluo—such a powerhouse had not appeared in who knew how many years. Since they were fortunate enough to witness one today, they naturally would not miss it.

"Second Brother, you must succeed!"

Qian Daoliu sighed. Golden Crocodile Douluo had remained at Rank 98 for over fifty years. Now that he had an opportunity to break through, he naturally had to seize the moment in one go.

Golden Crocodile Douluo's aura grew increasingly tyrannical, until even the entire Worship Hall trembled faintly beneath its pressure.

Behind him, the Golden Crocodile King Martial Soul appeared, roaring toward the sky before beginning to change.

"This is... the Golden Dragon Crocodile!"
