Qian Chen's Metamorphosis, Two Great Dragon Kings Submit! Dragon God Bloodline!

The Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well surged once more.

The azure spring water condensed into a dragon-head-sized ice crystal.

The crimson spring water also gathered in midair, forming a crimson-gold fireball.

The two great Dragon Kings spread their wings at the same time.

The dragon shadows transformed into two beams of light and entered the ice crystal and fireball respectively.

The next moment, the two Dragon Kings' origins surged into Qian Chen's body.

Qian Chen sat down cross-legged.

Azure dragon scales rapidly covered the left half of his body.

Crimson-gold dragonflames ignited across the right half.

The ice and fire powers collided head-on along his meridians as the Mysterious Heaven Icefire Body circulated at full force.

The Dragon God Bloodline transformed into Nine-Colored Divine Light, wrapping around both powers at once.

The Ice Dragon King's extreme-cold origin merged into his left arm.

The Fire Dragon King's scorching origin entered his right arm.

Qian Chen's Soul Power broke through once more.

Rank ninety!

The sky above the valley suddenly darkened.

Vast crimson clouds gathered.

A Soul Ring slowly rose from the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well.

Half of the Soul Ring was azure, while the other half was crimson-gold.

The two radiances alternated as they flowed, ultimately transforming entirely into dazzling crimson.

A Hundred Thousand Year Soul Ring!

Qian Chen's previously empty eighth Soul Ring finally took shape.

Purple, purple, black, black, black, black, red, red.

Eight Soul Rings lined up in succession.

Dugu Bo's breathing stalled for a moment as he stared at the second Hundred Thousand Year Soul Ring.

"The eighth Soul Ring is also a Hundred Thousand Year Soul Ring..."

"How could such a Soul Ring configuration appear on the continent?"

Qian Chen opened his eyes.

Crimson-gold flames and azure frost flashed through his pupils.

The eighth Soul Ring suddenly lit up.

"Eighth Soul Skill, Ice and Fire Annihilation."

Azure frost surged into the sky.

Crimson-gold dragonflames followed close behind.

The two powers condensed into two enormous dragons that circled and intertwined above the valley.

Wherever the frost passed, space froze.

Wherever the dragonflames fell, rocks melted into crimson magma.

The two enormous dragons collided violently.

A destructive aura spread from the center of the collision.

The entire valley shook violently.

Dugu Bo immediately released his Jade Phosphorous Serpent Emperor martial soul.

"Serpent Python Heavenly Shield!"

A dark-green light shield appeared before him.

A mere shockwave struck it, and cracks instantly covered its surface.

Dugu Bo retreated several steps in succession, leaving several deep pits beneath his feet.

"Just the aftermath of a soul skill can shatter this old man's defense?"

The Ice Empress raised her hand and laid down a barrier.

She watched the ice-and-fire dragons in the sky, astonishment appearing in her eyes as well.

"If this strike landed head-on, an ordinary Titled Douluo would have no chance of blocking it."

Qian Chen withdrew his Soul Power.

The ice-and-fire dragons dissipated with it.

Two Dragon Pearls fell from above the spring.

The Dragon Pearl on the left was entirely azure, with a tiny sleeping ice dragon inside.

The Dragon Pearl on the right burned with crimson-gold flames, a fire dragon coiled within.

Qian Chen raised his hand and caught both Dragon Pearls.

The Ice Dragon King's consciousness came from within the azure Dragon Pearl.

"Master, our remnant souls will reside within the Dragon Pearls from now on."

The Fire Dragon King continued, "As long as Master activates them with Soul Power, you can borrow the power we have left behind."

Qian Chen stored the two Dragon Pearls in his Soul Tool.

"Good."

The Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well returned to calm.

Although the power in the springs had weakened somewhat, the ice and fire origins had not vanished.

Qian Chen stood up.

His rank-ninety Soul Power had completely stabilized.

The Ice Empress came before him and pressed a hand against his chest.

"Does your body feel uncomfortable anywhere?"

"No."

"Really?"

Qian Chen grasped her wrist.

"The Dragon God Bloodline has already fused the two powers."

The Ice Empress carefully confirmed it for a moment before withdrawing her hand.

"Then let's leave this place."

"Shui Bing'er and the others are still waiting for you outside."

Dugu Bo's expression immediately turned complicated when he heard this.

During the few days Qian Chen had spent at the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well, he had not only taken away a large number of Immortal Herbs but had also obtained the inheritances of two Dragon Kings.

Yet facing Qian Chen now, Dugu Bo could no longer bring himself to think about reclaiming his medicinal garden.

The three of them left along the valley.

Outside Sunset Forest.

Shui Bing'er, Shui Yue'er, Xue Wu, and the others stood beside the carriage.

Dugu Yan leaned against another carriage, her jade-green hair hanging behind her shoulders.

The moment she saw Qian Chen appear, Shui Yue'er was the first to run over.

"Qian Chen, you're finally out!"

She came before Qian Chen and walked around him, examining him from head to toe.

"You've gotten stronger again?"

"I condensed my eighth Soul Ring."

Shui Yue'er's eyes immediately lit up.

"What age?"

"A hundred thousand years."

Everyone stopped moving at the same time.

Shui Bing'er hurried to Qian Chen's side.

"Your eighth Soul Ring is also a Hundred Thousand Year Soul Ring?"

Qian Chen nodded.

Xue Wu drew in a soft breath.

"Two Hundred Thousand Year Soul Rings."

"We're participating in the Academy Tournament. How are the other teams supposed to fight us?"

Yu Hairou looked at Qian Chen with a smile.

"Looks like Skywater Academy is taking the championship this time."

Qian Chen took several jade boxes out of his Soul Tool.

"These are for you."

Shui Bing'er accepted one of them.

When the jade box opened, an Immortal Herb with a body of watery blue lay quietly inside.

Pure frost seeped from between its petals.

"This is Narcissus Jade Muscle Bone."

"It can increase Soul Power and temper the body."

Qian Chen handed the other jade boxes to Shui Yue'er and Xue Wu.

"These Immortal Herbs have different attributes."

"Take them according to the method I wrote down. Don't swallow them directly."

Shui Yue'er hugged the jade box.

"You're really giving them to us?"

"I prepared them for you in the first place."

She immediately moved close to Qian Chen.

Her water-blue short skirt swayed lightly with her steps, revealing a pair of long, fair legs.

Shui Yue'er rose onto her toes and kissed the side of Qian Chen's face.

"That is my thank-you gift."

The soft sensation vanished in a flash.

Before Qian Chen could speak, Xue Wu had already come to his other side.

She was tall and slender, her water-blue uniform hugging her slim waist, while her legs beneath the skirt were straight and well-proportioned.

Xue Wu lowered her head and glanced at the Immortal Herb in her hand.

"Yue'er giving you a thank-you gift alone isn't enough."

She leaned close and planted a kiss on Qian Chen's other cheek.

Yu Hairou followed them over.

She tucked her long hair behind her ear, her fair cheeks already flushed red.

"We all received Immortal Herbs."

"Naturally, I can't be left out either."

Yu Hairou moved closer to Qian Chen.

She gently placed a palm on his shoulder and brushed her red lips against the side of his face.

After the three of them stepped back, they looked at one another and laughed.

Shui Bing'er stood to the side.

She held the jade box in her hands, but her watery-blue eyes had already darkened.

"Yue'er."

Shui Yue'er immediately hid behind Xue Wu.

"Sister, that was a thank-you gift."

"Do you need to kiss him to give a thank-you gift?"

"Qian Chen isn't short of Gold Soul Coins."

Shui Yue'er poked her head out.

"We can only thank him this way."

The Ice Empress folded her arms.

She walked up to Qian Chen and raised a hand to wipe away the faint lip mark left on his cheek.

"You gave away a few Immortal Herbs and got three kisses in return."

"Chen'er, that was a good deal."

Qian Chen looked at her.

"Bing'er Sister has an Immortal Herb too."

"Who cares?"

Although the Ice Empress said that, she directly linked her arm with Qian Chen's.

She pressed her slender body against his side, her jade-green hair falling onto his shoulder.

"From now on, you're not allowed to let other people kiss you so casually."

Shui Yue'er immediately said, "Ice Empress Sister is jealous."

The Ice Empress shot her a glance.

"I'm only keeping an eye on him for the Snow Empress."

Dugu Yan leaned against the carriage, watching as the others surrounded Qian Chen. She grew more and more uncomfortable inside.

She lowered her head and looked at her empty hands.

"Why did they all get one?"

Qian Chen turned to look at her.

"You want one too?"

Dugu Yan raised her chin.

"I don't care for it."

"Then you won't get one."

Qian Chen withdrew his gaze.

Dugu Yan's expression stiffened.

She immediately walked up to Qian Chen.

Her dark purple short dress clung to her tall figure, revealing her long, fair legs beneath the hem.

"You took all the Immortal Herbs from my grandfather's medicinal garden."

"It was only right that you gave me one."

Qian Chen took out an emerald jade box.

"This is Nine Jade Spirit Serpent Grass."

"It is compatible with your Jade Phosphorous Serpent Martial Soul."

Dugu Yan reached out and accepted it.

She opened the jade box, and a fragrant scent immediately wafted out.

The restless serpent poison within her body calmed somewhat as well.

Dugu Yan pressed her red lips together.

She glanced at Shui Yue'er and the others before looking up at Qian Chen.

"They all gave you something in return."

"I won't take advantage of you either."

Dugu Yan stepped closer.

Her jade-green hair slipped from her shoulder and brushed across Qian Chen's chest.

She rose onto her toes and lightly touched her red lips to Qian Chen's cheek.

The next instant, Dugu Yan immediately pulled back.

Her cheeks had already flushed crimson.

"Now we're even."

Shui Bing'er tightened her grip on the jade box in her hand.

Ice Empress's hold around Qian Chen's arm tightened as well.

Shui Yue'er looked at Dugu Yan.

"Didn't you just say you didn't care for it?"

Dugu Yan turned her face away.

"I just didn't want to owe him."

The moment she finished speaking, her face suddenly turned pale.

The jade box in her hand fell to the ground.

Jade-green poison markings rapidly spread upward from Dugu Yan's wrist.

She clutched her chest, her body losing all strength as she fell straight into Qian Chen's arms.

The moment Dugu Yan collapsed, Qian Chen reached out and supported her waist.

The jade-green poison markings had already spread to her neck.

The color quickly drained from her once-radiant face, and fine beads of sweat formed on her forehead.

Her body pressed against Qian Chen's chest, her slender fingers clutching his lapel as her breathing grew rapid.

"Yan Yan!"

Dugu Bo hurried over.

He placed a hand on Dugu Yan's shoulder and sent Soul Power into her meridians. His expression immediately turned grave.

"The medicinal power of the Nine Jade Spirit Serpent Grass has clashed with the serpent poison in her body."

"This Immortal Herb can temporarily suppress the serpent poison, but Yan Yan's body cannot withstand its power."

Dugu Yan had her eyes closed, her brows tightly furrowed.

Hearing Dugu Bo's words, she tried to leave Qian Chen's arms, but she did not even have the strength to raise her hand.

Qian Chen looked down at her.

"Are you still going to force yourself?"

Dugu Yan opened her eyes.

Embarrassment and annoyance filled her jade-green eyes, along with a trace of panic.

"I just..."

"Don't speak."

Qian Chen carried her over to the carriage and pressed a hand against her wrist.

A thread of golden light entered Dugu Yan's body through his fingertips.

The poisonous power rampaging through her meridians immediately halted.

Dugu Yan's body stiffened slightly.

She could clearly feel that gentle force spreading up her arm. Wherever it passed, the burning pain gradually faded.

Qian Chen's fingers rested against the bones of her wrist.

The warmth from his palm slowly relaxed her tense body.

"Lower your mental defenses."

"What are you going to do?"

"Suppress the serpent poison for you."

Dugu Yan bit her red lip.

She looked at Qian Chen, who stood so close before her. The scent of the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well still lingered on his white robes.

A few strands of black hair hung beside his brow, and his handsome face was so close that she could not look away.

"You won't take advantage of this chance to..."

She did not finish her sentence.

Qian Chen raised his eyes to look at her.

"If you are unwilling, I will let go now."

Dugu Yan immediately closed her eyes.

"Then hurry up."

Qian Chen said nothing further.

Golden Soul Power continuously poured into Dugu Yan's body, following her meridians and forcing the spreading serpent poison back into her dantian bit by bit.

The medicinal power released by the Nine Jade Spirit Serpent Grass was wrapped in the Life Law and slowly merged into her body.

Color gradually returned to Dugu Yan's face.

Her body was still leaning against Qian Chen's chest, her waist supported by his arm.

To control his Soul Power, Qian Chen's palm remained at her waist.

The fabric there was extremely thin.

She could feel the force through her dress, and her body involuntarily tensed.

"Don't move around."

Qian Chen said.

Dugu Yan opened her eyes.

"I'm not moving around."

"Your heartbeat is very fast."

"That's because of the serpent poison."

Qian Chen glanced at her.

"The serpent poison has already been suppressed."

Dugu Yan immediately turned her face away.

Her jade-green hair slipped over her chest, hiding half her face.

She said nothing more, yet she did not leave Qian Chen's arms.

A quarter of an hour later.

The poison markings within Dugu Yan's body gradually receded to her wrist.

Qian Chen withdrew his Soul Power.

Her body lost its support, yet she still leaned against Qian Chen's chest.

"It's done."

Dugu Yan lowered her head and looked at her wrist.

The poison markings were no longer spreading, and the pain in her chest had completely vanished.

She raised her eyes.

"You really suppressed the serpent poison?"

"Temporarily."

"How long will it last?"

"As long as you do not take any more herbs with conflicting attributes, it will not flare up within three months."

Dugu Bo walked over to Dugu Yan.

He reached out to examine his granddaughter's body once more, and the gravity on his face quickly turned to shock.

Qian Chen had not merely suppressed the serpent poison.

He had also completely guided the medicinal power of the Nine Jade Spirit Serpent Grass into Dugu Yan's meridians.

The areas that had been eroded by serpent poison for years were slowly recovering.

"How is this possible?"

Dugu Bo looked at Qian Chen.

"The Jade Phosphorous Serpent Poison has plagued Yan Yan for years. Even I could only suppress it slowly."

"Yet in such a short time, you sealed the poisonous power back into her dantian."

"The Life Law is suited to repairing meridians."

Qian Chen released Dugu Yan.

The instant Dugu Yan's feet touched the ground, her body swayed slightly.

Qian Chen reached out and steadied her by the shoulder.

Dugu Yan did not refuse.

Only after she had regained her balance did she slowly withdraw her hand.

"Thank you for what you did today."

She lowered her head, lightly smoothing the sleeve Qian Chen had wrinkled when he held her wrist.

This was the first time she had thanked anyone.

Qian Chen nodded.

"Don't dwell on it."

"How could I not?"

Dugu Yan looked up at him.

"You saved my life."

"If it hadn't been for you, the serpent poison would have already backlashed against me."

Qian Chen looked at her.

"The Nine Jade Spirit Serpent Grass was meant for you in the first place."

"That still cannot repay this debt."

Dugu Yan took half a step forward.

The mountain wind gently stirred her purple short dress, while her jade-green hair brushed across the back of Qian Chen's hand.

"If you ever run into trouble, you can come find me."

"What can you do?"

A faint flush rose to Dugu Yan's cheeks.

"I still owe you my life."

Qian Chen did not respond.

Standing beside them, Dugu Bo had already understood what Qian Chen meant.

The other party was not only powerful, but also possessed methods even he could not comprehend.

Had Qian Chen not intervened today, Dugu Yan would certainly have suffered severe injury.
