The Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect's?

"This should help you adapt better to cultivating here," Ye Xunfeng said with a sigh.

He then turned to Dugu Bo. "Come on, let's solve the problems affecting you two. You're welcome to invite me to sit in your room."

"Welcome, of course you're welcome," Dugu Bo said heartily.

Ye Xunfeng entered the room and looked at Dugu Xin, who was cultivating on the bed. He raised a finger and pressed it against his forehead.

Pure energy slowly entered Dugu Xin's meridians, clearing away all the toxins that had contaminated the surrounding areas. Every step was carried out with utmost care.

It did not take long for every trace of toxin to be cleared. Dugu Xin instantly felt as though his entire body had become much lighter, though his Soul Power still carried toxins.

"You both need to listen carefully to what I'm about to say," Ye Xunfeng said after pushing back his hair and falling silent for a moment.

"This is one of my cultivation methods. Twist the liquid Soul Power in your dantian into a spinning vortex, then slowly compress and tighten it with spiritual power. Gradually compress the Soul Power from liquid into solid form. Keep the rhythm steady; don't rush. Finally, draw in the elemental energy of heaven and earth to stabilize its form, and you can condense a Soul Core." Ye Xunfeng slowly formed a vortex of Soul Power in the air.

"This is..." A flicker of horror crossed Dugu Bo's face.

"Gather all your toxins in your dantian and form them into a Soul Core. That way, they won't continue to harm your body," Ye Xunfeng said with a smile. "Besides, you've constantly been compressing your Soul Power to keep the toxins from affecting your body too severely, so condensing a Soul Core should be quite easy for you."

Dugu Bo was silent for a long time before nodding. "Brother Ye, are you in a hurry to handle something? If not, could you wait for me to try for a while?"

"I can. At most, one month," Ye Xunfeng said after a brief silence.

During this month, he could also take the opportunity to stabilize his cultivation. He currently had roughly Rank 92 Soul Power, and he was surprised to discover that ever since completing the Yin-Yang Complementary Soul Core, his Soul Power seemed to be cultivating every moment without pause.

After all, his cultivation speed had already been many times faster than that of others. Still, the life and Destruction attributes had indeed slowed him down somewhat.

But now, he felt that he could break through to Rank 93 at any time.

He wondered how Qian Xunji, who was only Rank 92 at this point, would feel about that.

Of course, Ye Xunfeng did not know Qian Xunji's current rank. In his estimation, Qian Xunji could not be above Rank 95. Since he was only Rank 95 by the end, he was probably around Rank 93 or 94 now.

Dugu Bo immediately sat down cross-legged to cultivate. Following Ye Xunfeng's instructions, he gathered his Soul Power within his dantian.

Ye Xunfeng sat beside him and cultivated as well, though he split off a thread of spiritual power to monitor Dugu Bo's condition.

The sun and moon revolved through the sky, their light reflected upon the Ice and Fire Yin-Yang Well.

Ye Xunfeng stood to one side, his spear continuously thrusting, piercing, pressing, and striking forward...

After a long while, he slowly withdrew his martial soul and began his morning cultivation.

A week later, a massive amount of elemental energy from heaven and earth suddenly surged toward Dugu Bo.

Ye Xunfeng instantly awoke from cultivation and arrived at Dugu Bo's side, silently observing him.

The sun slowly sank beyond the mountains, then rose again.

Dugu Bo opened his eyes. The green in his hair gradually turned black, though it still carried a faint dark-green tint.

"You're awake? How do you feel?" Ye Xunfeng asked, looking down at him.

"I've never felt this light before. Brother Ye, I'd like to ask you for a favor. Help me hunt a soul beast," Dugu Bo said somewhat awkwardly.

"Of course. Which one do you have your eye on?" Ye Xunfeng asked.

"Ha, ha. I spotted a Medusa from afar in Sunset Forest earlier. It should have around eighty thousand years of cultivation. I'd like to ask you, Senior, to lend me a hand." Dugu Bo bowed and smiled.

"Let's go. With your poison serving as a barrier, those two should be fine." Ye Xunfeng patted his shoulder, and the two rose into the air, flying toward the Medusa's territory in Sunset Forest.

"Hm?" Ye Xunfeng suddenly paused and looked toward one side.

"What is it, Brother Ye?" Dugu Bo asked curiously when he saw him stop.

"I sensed a streak of sword aura. If I'm not mistaken, it should be Sword Douluo Chen Xin," Ye Xunfeng said after a moment of silence.

"From the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect? Why is his direction so close to the Medusa I'm looking for?" Dugu Bo asked.

"It doesn't matter. Let's kill the Medusa first." Ye Xunfeng waved a hand.

Before long, the two saw the eighty-thousand-year Medusa coiled atop shattered rocks. Her body was wrapped in a dim purple toxic mist, while the snake hair behind her head writhed like countless blades, each strand gleaming with the seven-colored light of deadly poison.

Ye Xunfeng swiftly released the Atlas Spear martial soul. The two black, five red, and two orange Soul Rings left Dugu Bo frozen in place.

What kind of Soul Ring configuration was this?

If he remembered correctly, Ye Xunfeng's other martial soul seemed to have a similar configuration.

"Don't look at me like that. You can understand it as me having received a god's inheritance. Everything was bestowed by a god." Ye Xunfeng smiled faintly.

The air was thick with a fishy, sweet stench.

Her vertical pupils locked onto the spear-wielding figure ahead, and a dark glint soon flashed through her eyes. She appeared to be preparing to unleash her petrifying gaze.

At the same time, her snake hair exploded outward. Tens of thousands of poisoned blades tore through the air, killing moves coming from every direction. A single touch would leave one crippled by poison.

At the same time, white light flashed violently in her eyes.

Petrification rays could freeze even energy itself.

The two deadly attacks left no path to survival.

Only then did Ye Xunfeng raise his eyes.

His gaze was as calm as if he were looking at an ordinary stone.

The spear moved.

As its tip lifted, the surroundings fell into an absurd silence.

Medusa was frightened out of her wits. The snake hair she had unleashed came to an abrupt halt in midair.

The spearhead stabbed straight toward Medusa's heart, treating the toxic mist, snake hair, and petrifying gaze as though they did not exist.

Sixth Soul Skill, Pride of Heaven-Propping.

The thrust was impossibly fast, so fast that even time could not keep up.

Medusa did not see how the spear moved. She only saw a transparent hole appear in her chest.

Seven-colored blood sprayed outward, yet she felt no pain at all.

That strike had severed even her nerves.

The petrifying light immediately vanished, and her snake hair drooped limply like withered grass.

Medusa's body toppled backward, the light in her eyes gradually fading away.

Her enormous body crashed heavily onto the rocks, sending dust flying everywhere.

"Dugu Bo, go deliver the finishing blow and absorb the Soul Ring. I'll go meet the people from the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect," Ye Xunfeng said with a smile.

Then Ye Xunfeng swiftly leaped up and headed toward the place where he had sensed the sword aura.

"My surname is Ye, given name Xunfeng. Greetings, Young Sect Master of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect, and Sword Douluo." Ye Xunfeng slowly descended beside the two of them, soundlessly.
