Douluo: I, Innate Soul Power Nine Thousand Levels! Part 37

He had been stuck at level twenty-nine for many years and had suffered the scorn of countless people.

He had wanted Chen Fan to help him improve before, but Chen Fan had ignored him.

Now, he could only take the initiative and cling to Chen Fan's thigh.

As long as Chen Fan could help him break through his limitations, he would be willing to be his dog.

Chen Fan looked at the utterly sincere Yu Xiaogang. Before he could speak, Liu Erlong said,

"As long as you can help Xiao Gang improve, I'll work for you too."

Flender wanted to say something as well, but Liu Erlong stopped him.

"I don't think his body can withstand the cleansing of Darkness Power. Keeping him out of this is for the sake of his life," Chen Fan said indifferently.

The three of them froze at those words.

"Do you think gaining power is that easy? With Yu Xiaogang's physique, the moment he touches it, he'll die."

Faced with this merciless reality, Yu Xiaogang felt a little despair in his heart.

Was this truly how his life was going to be?

Liu Erlong looked at Flender. Seeing him nod, she realized Chen Fan was not making things up.

"But it's not like there's no way. I heard there's something that can resolve Martial Soul Mutation. If you can find it and let Yu Xiaogang improve at the root, he won't die so quickly upon coming into contact with that power. At least there'll be some hope of improvement," Chen Fan suddenly said.

Of course, he had no interest in helping Yu Xiaogang improve. He only said it to keep Liu Erlong steady.

He would need the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan to serve as his lackeys in the future, and he would need their help as well.

Hearing that there was hope, Yu Xiaogang seemed to see a ray of light appear before him.

Shock also appeared on Liu Erlong and Flender's faces.

"What is it?" Liu Erlong's delicate body trembled as she looked at Chen Fan with extreme nervousness.

"I don't feel like telling you. If you want to know, then wait obediently. When I have something for you to do, I'll naturally tell you after you've done it properly."

"After all, I haven't even asked you to do anything yet, but you already want information. Aren't you expecting a little too much?"

Liu Erlong and the others fell silent at those words.

As they watched Chen Fan's retreating figure, they could only hope that work would come sooner.

Flender went to digest the Dark Power.

Chen Fan gave him a warning, telling him not to attempt to assimilate the power here for too long. He should do it for a few minutes at a time each day. If he got too impatient and died, that would be none of Chen Fan's business.

Having stabilized the three of them, Chen Fan headed for Sunset Forest without concern.

Through his Spiritual Power, he soon discovered a rather strange area.

There was poisonous miasma here, and the Soul Beasts nearby were extraordinarily venomous. It was extremely difficult for ordinary people to enter.

The Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well and a large number of Immortal Herbs were inside. Chen Fan planned to take them all.

As for Dugu Bo, that fortune-delivering NPC, Chen Fan would leave him alone for now.

Still, as a righteous man, he decided that after dealing with the Clear Sky Sect, he would have Xue Qinghe bring Dugu Bo over. He would give the man a few pointers and tell him to store the poison inside his Spirit Bones.

When Chen Fan had read this part of the plot back then, he had felt that Dugu Bo had been dumbed down.

An old man in his nineties who had lived so long—couldn't he think of something so simple?

Sunset Forest. After several days, the Blue Silver Grass throughout the forest underwent massive mutations.

The originally ordinary Blue Silver Grass had turned black and began to emit a black glow.

Several teams hunting Soul Beasts were frightened by the strange sight when they entered the forest.

Chen Fan had learned all of this from passersby he encountered.

He was not surprised. These people would not be affected, because the Blue Silver Grass assimilated by the Darkness Emperor did not possess enough Darkness Power to affect humans.

More precisely, the cultivation of that Blue Silver Grass was insufficient to affect others.

For that Blue Silver Grass to influence ordinary people or Soul Masters, it needed at least three thousand years of cultivation.

But after being assimilated, all of the Blue Silver Grass would offer that cultivation to its master, the Darkness Emperor.

Chen Fan arrived at the core area.

After only a few days, the Darkness Emperor's cultivation had already reached around thirty thousand years.

It was not yet time to harvest the fruit. Chen Fan still needed to wait a while longer.

The Darkness Emperor's soul had already awakened, and she knew what she had to do.

Afterward, Chen Fan spent several days locating the poisonous miasma hidden within Sunset Forest.

A layer of Darkness Power covered his body, and his immense Soul Power prevented the poisonous gas from approaching him.

Entering this place did not take much effort from him.

He soon reached the center. The scenery here was pleasant, with the wondrous natural spectacle known as the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well.

Nearby was also a medicinal field used to cultivate Immortal Herbs.

Chen Fan took a rough look around. He had consulted Chrysanthemum Douluo about this knowledge while studying at Spirit Hall.

That guy knew these things very well.

In the original plot, he had wanted the Singular Velvet Sky Chrysanthemum. After learning that Dai Mubai had eaten it, he had even wanted to take him as a disciple.

Chen Fan swept his gaze around and naturally did not intend to eat them directly.

Though he did not need them, these were items capable of rapidly helping Soul Masters grow.

He planned to move them back and see whether they could be cultivated on a large scale.

Naturally, the most important thing was to attach his Darkness Power to them.

Because this power had uncontrollable elements, he did not dare experiment recklessly for the time being.

He held an expectation in his heart: after consuming Immortal Herbs affected by Darkness Power, those who needed to be cultivated might be assimilated by Darkness Power more easily, pay a smaller price, and rapidly form an army.

Before coming here, Chen Fan had spent quite a few gold coins buying a Soul Tool from Xue Qinghe that could store plants. It could ensure the plants would not die during relocation.

Once everything was ready, Chen Fan glanced at the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well.

This place offered him virtually no improvement. Its power could temper the body, though. Chen Fan remembered that Tang San in the original work had drained all the power here.

After obtaining these things, a new problem emerged.

The Darkness Emperor had reached her limit, but she had not yet reached the hundred-thousand-year level.

Sunset Forest had no more power left for her to absorb.

The Blue Silver Emperor had also devoured all the Blue Silver Grass. That strange Blue Silver Grass could no longer be seen in the forest.

Waiting for another wave would take at least half a month.

"I can only catch some Soul Beasts," Chen Fan thought helplessly. The Darkness Emperor was still roughly thirty thousand years of cultivation short of a hundred thousand years, but it would be resolved soon enough.

Chen Fan began hunting Soul Beasts. Before long, he captured several Ten-Thousand-Year Soul Beasts for the Darkness Emperor to devour.

Her cultivation successfully reached the hundred-thousand-year level.

However, when he caught those Soul Beasts, one unexpectedly dropped a ten-thousand-year left leg bone. Chen Fan was quite astonished and exclaimed that his luck was truly good.

Spirit Bones were an incomparably rare existence in Douluo Continent.

They had always been priceless treasures that could not be bought even with money.

"With luck this good, it seems Heaven wants me to reward Dugu Bo," Chen Fan muttered.

Afterward, with practiced ease, the Darkness Emperor sacrificed herself, and Chen Fan's second Soul Ring became exactly one hundred thousand years old.

He gained a new Soul Skill, carrying the traits of the Darkness Emperor and the Blue Silver Grass's Endless Vitality.

The skill he released was related to grass. It could instantly cover a thousand meters, continuously release Darkness Power to affect enemies, and gather together to bind them.

This was not a Self-Created Soul Skill, but an inheritance of the Darkness Emperor's power.

Chen Fan named this Soul Skill Thousand Mile Soul Chase.

With his current Soul Power, he should be able to reach a thousand miles. After all, this was Soul Power at nine thousand levels.

He could condense Blue Silver Grass here and snipe anyone in the distant Heaven Dou Imperial City.

A phantom slowly appeared, and Xiao Wu emerged as well, looking at the unfamiliar beautiful woman.

"Is this the Blue Silver Emperor?" Xiao Wu murmured.

When the Darkness Emperor sacrificed herself, Chen Fan had naturally protected her soul and kept it from being extinguished. The soul was the foundation; as long as it existed, she could be revived.

The Darkness Emperor had a mature face and long black hair. She wore no clothes, with only a hazy layer of black mist concealing her body. Her eyes were somewhat innocent, and she looked like a child, curiously observing everything around her.

"Hello, big sister. My name is Xiao Wu—the Wu from dancing," Xiao Wu introduced herself cheerfully.

The Darkness Emperor was a little bewildered and murmured her name.
