Nine Nether Poison Scripture Initiation, and Dugu Yan's Joy!

"Hmph!" Dugu Bo said irritably, "That fellow was originally an unconstrained soul master like me, but because he coveted Spirit Hall's power, he began serving Spirit Hall!"

"From then on, he was restricted by Spirit Hall and could no longer act as he pleased. Did he really think being an elder of Spirit Hall was so easy? While gaining power, he also had to pay the corresponding price!"

"But it must be said that Spirit Hall is truly powerful. It dominates the entire soul master world. When I was young, the Upper Three Sects had to stand united just to barely contend with Spirit Hall!"

"And that was only because the Clear Sky Sect had produced an ancestor of exceptional stature. Without that person, the Upper Three Sects wouldn't even be worthy to carry Spirit Hall's shoes!"

Dugu Bo was genuinely cursing Ju Yueguan, but Spirit Hall truly was powerful as well. Even the imperial families of the two great empires had to watch Spirit Hall's expression in certain matters!

"These two spiritual herbs Ju Yueguan gave you aren't bad. They'll look nice enough if you keep them indoors. Let's head back."

After Dugu Bo spoke, everyone boarded the carriage and left the Jade Glazed Pavilion, traveling in the direction of Sunset Forest.

Inside the carriage, Dugu Yao rested his elbow against the window, watching the scenery outside while holding the Qi Rong Flower Ju Yueguan had given him.

There are still two years until Tang San is born. Two years from now, Qian Xunji will die, Bibi Dong will become Pope, the Clear Sky Sect will go into seclusion, and Qian Renxue will come to the Heaven Dou Empire.

Another dozen or so years after that, Spirit Hall will establish the Spirit Hall Empire, and the world will descend into chaos. That gives us more than ten years to develop.

Even if the world falls into chaos by then, it probably won't affect our family, right? Dugu Yao thought to himself. Having come to Douluo Continent, he harbored no grand ambitions. All he wanted was for his family to remain safe and sound.

In over a decade, let alone his grandfather, father, and mother, with the inheritance of Fierce God Xiangliu, who knew how powerful he himself would become!

The chaos in the world would not affect them. Once his Soul Power Level reached thirty, Fierce God Xiangliu's inheritance would be opened once more. He wondered what the Third Inheritance would be.

With his Innate spirit power level 20, the Fierce God's Nine Nether Poison Scripture, and the medicinal power of those Immortal Herbs settling within his body—

He should need less than two months to raise his Soul Power Level by two levels and reach rank thirty. Then, he could enter that Otherspace again and unlock the Third Inheritance!

"Ah—" Dugu Yan, who was sitting beside Dugu Yao, suddenly cried out. Everyone immediately turned toward her. Dugu Yan scratched her head and said with a grin, "I've begun the Nine Nether Poison Scripture!"

"You've begun it? Really?" Dugu Yao snapped out of his thoughts and asked excitedly. Ever since he had taught the Nine Nether Poison Scripture to Dugu Yan, he had seen how hard she worked.

Yet getting started had been far too difficult for Dugu Yan. Now, her efforts had finally paid off. Dugu Yan had successfully begun, and only needed to open up her Nine Nether Space.

"Mm-hmm!" Dugu Yan said cheerfully, "Brother's Mental Cultivation Method is really hard to cultivate. I've been neglecting food and sleep these past few days, but I finally got started! Now I just need to open up my Nine Nether Space!"

"Hiss—" Dugu Xin smiled wryly. "Who would have thought Yanyan would get ahead of us? Looks like we haven't been working hard enough!"

They had also been diligently cultivating these past few days, but they had not put as much heart into it as Dugu Yan. Naturally, their progress was slower than hers.

"Yanyan, once you open up your Nine Nether Space, I'll give you a drop of Xiangliu's venom. Xiangliu's venom is one of a kind in this world, a peerless lethal poison!"

Dugu Yao said with a smile, patting Dugu Yan's head.

"Mm-hmm! Brother, I'll work hard and open up my Nine Nether Space as soon as possible!" With that, Dugu Yan eagerly began trying to open up her Nine Nether Space.

"And Grandpa, Father, Mother, you all need to get started as soon as possible too. Then open up your Nine Nether Space. Cultivating with the Nine Nether Poison Scripture is faster than ordinary Meditation methods."

"Moreover, the Nine Nether Poison Scripture can replace sleep. If conditions allow, you can spend all twenty-four hours of the day cultivating!"

Dugu Yao reminded them. He had not expected his grandfather and parents to cultivate more slowly than Yanyan. Perhaps they had been occupied with other matters lately.

"Once you succeed in cultivating it, I'll give each of you a drop of Xiangliu's venom. Then you can store it in your Nine Nether Space."

"Grandpa, Xiangliu's venom is even stronger than the poison of the Jade Phosphor Poison Dragon Emperor. If Grandpa uses it against enemies, then..."

Dugu Yao trailed off.

"Don't worry, Yao'er. I should be able to get started with the Nine Nether Poison Scripture within the next few days. I've been delayed by the banquet recently and haven't been cultivating wholeheartedly!"

Dugu Bo said, stroking his chin.

Once everyone returned to Dugu Manor, Dugu Bo, Dugu Xin, and the couple Dugu Xin and Lin Wanqiu immediately returned to their respective rooms.

They began cultivating the Nine Nether Poison Scripture. This Mental Cultivation Method could replace sleep, and its effect in refining Soul Power far surpassed ordinary Meditation methods. They had to master it as quickly as possible!

The sooner they mastered it, the sooner they would benefit!

In the dim room, Dugu Yan cultivated the Nine Nether Poison Scripture, attempting to open up a Nine Nether Space at her dantian. But getting started was one thing.

Opening up the Nine Nether Space was another matter entirely. It was just as difficult, several times harder than getting started.

Not everyone was like Dugu Yao, who could begin cultivating that very night and open up a thumb-sized Nine Nether Space on the same day.

Dugu Yao glanced at Dugu Yan, who was cultivating earnestly beside him, then broke into a bright smile. "I should cultivate as soon as possible too and raise my Soul Power by the final two levels."

"Then I can unlock Fierce God Xiangliu's Third Inheritance. The first was a Million-Year Soul Ring, and the second was this Fierce God's Mental Cultivation Method, the Nine Nether Poison Scripture. The third should be just as extraordinary!"

"And now that Grandpa's celebration banquet has ended successfully, Yanyan and I will be entering Heaven Dou Royal Academy to study in a few days."

"I'll probably still run into Yu Tianheng. I don't know what happened in the original timeline, but now that old dragon Yu Yuanzhen wants to win Grandpa over."

"He'll probably use Yanyan as a breakthrough point. Luckily, Yanyan doesn't have any favorable impression of Yu Tianheng now. Otherwise, this really would have been difficult to handle!"

Yu Yuanzhen in the original timeline seemed to have had the same intention, only he sent Yu Tianheng into Heaven Dou Royal Academy later to approach Dugu Yan.

At this thought, Dugu Yao stopped thinking. With his sister's current aptitude—Innate Full Soul Power, the Three-Phase Jade Phosphor Serpent Martial Soul, and her extremely poor impression of Yu Tianheng today—

Yu Tianheng probably would not have any chances in the future.
