Scripture Depository's Guarantee: Only the Finest!

The commotion subsided quietly thanks to Dugu Yan's intervention.

Everyone breathed a sigh of relief.

Even the three lackeys who had previously attempted to surround Li Jingzhe retreated behind Xue Feng.

Xue Feng gently waved his fan, glancing from Dugu Yan to Li Jingzhe, a playful smile gradually curling at the corners of his mouth.

He simply watched as Dugu Yan paid and Li Jingzhe handed over the goods.

The porcelain bottle was quite ordinary.

Yet, the moment Dugu Yan uncorked the stopper, a refreshing medicinal fragrance wafted out...

Xue Feng couldn't help but feel invigorated, faintly sensing his own internal soul power stirring in response...

Could it really be true?

As he narrowed his eyes, his gaze remained fixed intently on Dugu Yan...

He saw Dugu Yan take a deep breath, tilt her head back, swallow the Greater Restoration Pill, and immediately sit down in a cross-legged position.

BOOM—

The moment the pill entered her body, a surge of energy exploded within her;

The medicinal power transformed into rolling heat, coursing rapidly through her meridians, growing hotter and warmer with every passing second;

She instinctively activated the method of Refining Poison into the Body from her Thousand Spider Poison Hand. Poison was energy, and the majestic medicinal power now within her was also a form of energy;

Guiding that medicinal power to circulate through her meridians, she had barely completed two cycles when a flash of joy crossed her brow... So this was how the Greater Restoration Pill eradicated injuries?

As the medicinal power coursed through her entire body, she could clearly feel the hidden injuries left behind by over twenty years of torment from the poison within her healing at a speed visible to the naked eye;

That scoundrel Tang San had deceived her grandfather, neutralizing the poison she had accumulated over two decades, but it had only treated the symptoms, not the root cause;

The Thousand Spider Poison Hand could release the poison from her body, sparing her from the distress of accumulated toxins, but... neither method could heal the hidden damage caused by that long-term accumulation.

It was like a drop of ink on a solid wood table; you could wipe away the ink, but you couldn't erase the stain that had already seeped into the grain. To remove it completely, you would have to scrape away the contaminated part, but... the body is not wood, and hidden injuries cannot be scraped away. Even if they could, the damage caused to oneself would be no better than leaving the injuries alone.

However, as the medicinal power of the Greater Restoration Pill entered her body, the hidden injuries were not only scraped away, but the affected areas were also regenerated by the power of the medicine, brimming with new life as if reborn.

Such a wonderful thing, I must get one for Grandfather!!

She had already made up her mind to find Li Jingzhe and purchase another Greater Restoration Pill later!

Just as she was thinking this, her soul power suddenly surged;

Once the internal injuries were completely eradicated, the remaining medicinal power rapidly transformed into nourishment to boost her soul power. A meridian she had never noticed before was opened by the medicinal force, followed by another she had never paid attention to, and her own soul power rose with the tide, climbing step by step;

Her Jade Phosphorous Serpent martial soul manifested on its own, its four soul rings—yellow, yellow, purple, purple—pulsing with her breath. With every inhalation and exhalation, her soul power broke through level forty-three and stepped into level forty-four;

With every breath, her soul power surged higher: level forty-five... level forty-six... level forty-seven... in the blink of an eye, she reached level forty-nine. The growth of her soul power slowed down significantly, but it continued...

"Th-this, this..."

The former captain of the Second Team, the youth with a bruised and swollen face, was already too shocked to speak. His mouth opened and closed, but he couldn't manage a complete sentence.

And he was the lucky one!

Thump—

Thump—

The substitute members standing in the back were pointing at Dugu Yan with trembling fingers; some wore expressions of pure terror, frozen like statues, while others were so startled they collapsed to the ground.

It rose!

It really rose!

Senior Sister Dugu's soul power was skyrocketing, surging wildly!!

Even Ye Lingling instinctively covered her red lips, as if afraid she might let out a gasp of surprise...

They hadn't heard of methods to rapidly increase soul power in a short time, but those methods usually came with a massive overdraft of one's foundation, origin, and vitality;

Furthermore, soul power raised by such means was often hollow and scattered;

That was why many of them had come initially just to watch the show, but...

Dugu Yan before them had a rosy complexion and excellent vitality. Where was the slightest sign of the rumored damaged foundation or depleted origin?

This steadily climbing soul power was incredibly solid, her foundation unshakable, without a hint of hollowness!

At this moment, the eyes of the Second Team members became incredibly fervent!

Senior Sister Dugu hadn't lied to them; this was truly a chance for transformation, perhaps even a chance to defy the heavens and change their fate!

Especially the seven standing at the very front—they were all official members, their soul power had reached level thirty-five, and none were over twenty-five years old. If they could reach level forty before turning twenty-five, their status and influence within their families would see a phased improvement!

Watching Dugu Yan, whose soul power was climbing steadily and was on the verge of crossing the level fifty threshold, Xue Feng tightened his grip on his fan unconsciously.

The soul power information Dugu Yan registered when she joined the Second Team was level forty-three. Now... her soul power fluctuations are already approaching level fifty...

What kind of Greater Restoration Pill is this, that it can actually increase soul power? A minimum of five levels, perhaps even more?

If I could use this for the old man...

His gaze swept unobtrusively over the row of items in front of Li Jingzhe, and the expensive, high-quality folding fan in his hand creaked as he squeezed it.

"So, you're the Pavilion Master?"

"Let me ask you this: is this Greater Restoration Pill effective for all soul masters, or only for those of low rank? Are there any Soul Power Level requirements for the user?"

Oh?

Li Jingzhe narrowed his eyes, looking the playboy up and down. If he remembered correctly... the others had called this guy Xue Feng, the heir? Was he the eldest son of that Prince Xue Xing?

Heh, the soul power fluctuations on this kid were only around level thirty, yet he was deliberately asking if the Greater Restoration Pill worked for all soul masters... Could it be he wanted to use it on his old man, Prince Xue Xing?

Although the original work didn't specify exactly what level Prince Xue Xing was, judging by Xue Feng's reaction, was it possible that Xue Xing was stuck at a bottleneck and unable to advance?

Hmm, that was indeed a possibility!

While the original work didn't state Xue Xing's exact level, it did mention that Emperor Xue Ye was an eighty-eighth-level Soul Douluo. With his older brother being such a gem, as long as Xue Xing didn't possess a trash martial soul, he couldn't be that bad with the support of royal resources, could he?

Yet, in the original work, after Emperor Xue Ye died, it was Xue Beng, who only had soul power in the forties at the time, who ascended to the throne...

No matter how mediocre Xue Xing was, he had to be better than a waste like Xue Beng, right?

The reason was likely that the officials, led by the Heaven Dou Empire's supreme military commander, the eighty-plus-level Soul Douluo Ge Long, only recognized Xue Beng as the legitimate heir and not Xue Xing, who was from a branch family. Unfortunately, Xue Xing lacked the strength to force those officials to bow.

It couldn't be ruled out that Ge Long and the others intended to use Xue Beng as a puppet. After all, that was exactly what Xue Xing did in the original work—a playboy without strength sitting on the throne was far too easy to control!

But if Xue Xing were to take the Greater Restoration Pill and break through his bottleneck... tsk, this Heaven Dou Empire was about to get lively!

But what did that have to do with him, Li Jingzhe?

Even if the sky fell, it wouldn't matter; he was invincible inside the Scripture Depository anyway.

"Anything produced by the Scripture Depository is a masterpiece! Even a Title Douluo will find it effective!"
