Battle Armor Domain Emerges! Passing the Immortal Herb Trials!

Within the Heavenly Soul Empire, Sunset Forest.

"This... how had Sunset Forest become like this ten thousand years later? The air was filled with dense toxic mist, and along the way, we could barely even see any soul beasts."

Porcupine Douluo cried out in alarm. How had this Sunset Forest become like a land of death? There were scarcely any soul beasts left, and the environment here was simply abysmal.

"The poisonous miasma here had already become extremely dense. Aside from a few soul beasts capable of adapting to this environment, the rest simply could not survive."

Mu Yunye explained.

"Ah, the world is ever-changing."

Yue Guan and Gui Mei sighed. The two of them had once been rivals with Dugu Bo, and now that they had returned to Sunset Forest, they felt deeply moved.

"Prepare to enter the toxic miasma."

Mu Yunye reminded them.

"Leave it to me, Holy Son."

At that moment, Porcupine Douluo released his martial soul. Immediately afterward, a barrier condensed from dense poison appeared, yet it did not harm them in the slightest as it shielded the group.

Whoosh—!

The toxic miasma, enough to make countless people turn pale at the sight of it, was entered by Mu Yunye and the others just like that. It could not hinder their steps at all.

After a long while, once Mu Yunye had passed through layer upon layer of toxic miasma, an exceptionally peculiar valley suddenly appeared before him.

Faint red and blue light could be seen in the sky above the valley, while the smell of sulfur drifting through the air entered Mu Yunye's nose.

"We're here."

Mu Yunye spoke softly, his gaze blazing.

"Damn... the old poison freak's secluded dwelling was actually such a treasure basin formed by heaven and earth."

"Heavens, these are all Immortal Herbs! Look, that's the Narcissus Jade Muscle Bone!"

Yue Guan cried out in shock. Upon seeing the Immortal Herbs growing everywhere, his eyes burned with fervor and reverence.

"Stop!"

A voice rang out.

Immediately afterward, a small purplish-gold figure landed before Mu Yunye and the others. When Yue Guan saw this Immortal Herb, his pupils abruptly contracted as he cried out inwardly, This is... the Aromatic Silk Immortal Herb!

The Aromatic Silk Immortal Herb, calling herself Youyou, watched Mu Yunye and the others vigilantly.

In a deep voice, she asked, "Humans, being able to pass through the toxic miasma outside and enter this place means you have some fate with it, but... what is your purpose in coming here?"

She could sense that the three people behind Mu Yunye all possessed Titled Douluo-level strength.

Although there were quite a few hundred-thousand-year soul beasts here, if a battle truly broke out, the losses would certainly be severe!

"Of course, we came to undergo the trials and obtain opportunities."

Mu Yunye spoke frankly.

"You?"

Youyou looked at Mu Yunye.

"Mm-hm."

After receiving Mu Yunye's answer, Youyou pondered for a moment before taking out an unusually shaped Immortal Herb and presenting it to him. "Since that is the case, if you wish to take away the Immortal Herbs here, you must undergo the trials."

"Moreover, the Immortal Herbs must be willing to leave with you. If they are unwilling, you cannot force them."

Mu Yunye calmly accepted the Immortal Herb Youyou offered him.

The amusement in the depths of his eyes was nearly impossible to suppress. This was Autumn-Water Dew, the finest Immortal Herb for enhancing his spiritual power!

What my Double Pupil needed most was spiritual power. After consuming this Autumn-Water Dew, the Twin-Pupil Art might be able to advance even further.

He then gestured for Yue Guan and the others to wait behind him. Then, in a single gulp, he swallowed the Autumn-Water Dew.

Feeling that surging power continuously wash through his Sea of Spirit, Mu Yunye felt as though everything in the world had become clear and empty.

Hum—!

Porcupine Douluo and Gui Mei watched Mu Yunye worriedly.

"Yue Guan, will the thing the Holy Son ate really be okay?"

Upon hearing that, Yue Guan nearly failed to hold back his laughter.

What could possibly go wrong?

Autumn-Water Dew was practically a tremendous opportunity for Mu Yunye. This place truly deserved to be called a land of great opportunities—he had only just arrived, and he had already been given a stalk of Autumn-Water Dew. What a delight.

"This human truly had considerable courage. He swallowed it without even thinking about it. Shouldn't ordinary people at least suspect that it might be poisonous grass...?"

Youyou examined Mu Yunye curiously.

A moment later, as Mu Yunye's spiritual power condensed once more, his Double Pupil evolved again.

Hum—!

The Double Pupil continued to evolve, refracting blazing pupil light.

"Did I pass this trial?"

Mu Yunye smiled at Youyou. Youyou nodded and said, "Mm-hm, you passed it. But there are more trials ahead. You need to pass the trial of the Blazing Apricot Delicate!"

Boom—!

Scorching fluctuations swept over them. Behind the Blazing Apricot Delicate, a female figure made of fire slowly condensed. The aura of ultimate fire twisted even the space around it.

"Defeat the fire woman I summoned, or endure under her attacks for a period of time, and you will pass the trial."

The Blazing Apricot Delicate said.

"Please."

An Elemental Sword condensed in Mu Yunye's hand. Ultimate fire element also bloomed forth, illuminating the entire Elemental Sword with incomparably blazing sword light. After a brief standoff, Mu Yunye suddenly struck.

Boom—!

First Soul Skill, Incineration!

The Elemental Sword burned with ultimate fire as Mu Yunye fiercely attacked the fire woman. With a wave of her hand, scorching waves of flame swept toward him. The two streams of ultimate fire element collided, and the fire waves abruptly spread outward.

After that simple probing exchange,

Mu Yunye stopped holding back and swept his sword horizontally. Under the enhancement of his First Soul Skill, Incineration, the Elemental Sword erupted with immensely powerful force. Sword qi crisscrossed the air, forcing the fire woman back a step.

"Hmph!"

The somewhat haughty Blazing Apricot Delicate snorted. Under her control, the fire woman transformed into an afterimage and vanished from where she stood, launching a fierce flaming attack at Mu Yunye.

Yet under Mu Yunye's Double Pupil analysis vision, all of this became extraordinarily slow. After twisting aside to evade the strike, Mu Yunye's gaze abruptly sharpened. The Elemental Sword shifted direction, and he swept it horizontally!

Third Soul Skill, Judgment!

Boom—!

The crimson-gold sword light shattered the fire woman's attack head-on. Before she could gather another offensive, an incomparably terrifying wave of soul power erupted from Mu Yunye's body.

Armor that seemed to possess a spirit condensed directly from Mu Yunye's flesh and blood, covering his entire body.

It was primarily white, flowing with golden sword patterns. Elemental inscriptions were engraved upon it, complex and profoundly mysterious.

Sword Star God!

Battle Armor Domain, Selfless Realm!

The Blazing Apricot Delicate was stunned by the sudden eruption of power from Mu Yunye. Furthermore, enveloped by the Battle Armor Domain, Mu Yunye could focus completely on executing every elemental attack within this domain.

Boom—!

One sword fell.

The fire woman dispersed into nothingness. Even the Blazing Apricot Delicate's true body was blasted back several steps, and she stared at Mu Yunye in disbelief.

"What kind of equipment was that? It actually increased his strength by so much in an instant?!"

Both Youyou and the Blazing Apricot Delicate were utterly shocked.
