Level 90 Taotie Holy Dragon, Level 50 Light Sacred Dragon?! Star Dou? No, Soul Hunting in the Far North!

Tuoba Tingxue opened her eyes. Her once-deep, beautiful eyes had turned a majestic dark gold.

With every movement she made, faint pops sounded in the air as space twisted and was swallowed.

She stood and stared at the golden dragon markings shimmering across her fair hands, utterly stunned.

The Side Hall fell silent. Then a deafening burst of delighted laughter erupted!

"Hahahahaha!

Good!

Wonderful!

The heavens have not forsaken my Holy Dragon Sect!"

Tears streamed down Tuoba Xi's face as he hurried forward. He looked his daughter up and down, his voice trembling.

"Ting Xue!

Level 90!

You really reached Level 90!

And your Martial Soul evolved into the Taotie Holy Dragon!

Ancestors above, our Holy Dragon Sect has finally broken the bloodline curse of the White-Armored Earth Dragon!"

Yin Yu strode forward and swept Tuoba Tingxue into his arms. His eyes shone with indescribable excitement and love.

"Ting Xue, congratulations!

You're one step from becoming a Titled Douluo, and you have a supreme Martial Soul like the Taotie Holy Dragon. You're bound to make your mark on Douluo Continent!"

Resting against her husband, Tuoba Tingxue turned toward Yin Changqing, who stood nearby with a smile. Her eyes reddened and her voice caught.

"Changqing... am I... am I dreaming?

Level 90... did my Martial Soul really evolve into a Holy Dragon?"

Yin Changqing stepped forward with a smile, took his mother's hand, and spoke gently.

"Mother, you're not dreaming.

The White-Armored Earth Dragon always carried the bloodline of ancient Dragonkind. The Earth Dragon Golden Melon purged its mixed impurities and awakened its primal earth essence, allowing your Martial Soul to undergo its ultimate transformation.

From today on, you're no longer a Soul Douluo with the White-Armored Earth Dragon. You're a powerhouse on the verge of becoming a Titled Douluo, with the Taotie Holy Dragon Martial Soul!"

Tuoba Tingxue released Yin Yu and pulled Yin Changqing into a tight embrace. Tears spilled from her eyes.

"My good son!

My wonderful son!

Giving birth to you is the greatest pride of my life!"

Only after a long while did everyone gradually calm down, though the atmosphere in the Side Hall remained electric.

The four sat down again. Tuoba Tingxue circulated her Soul Power, carefully feeling the new strength within her, and marveled:

"The Taotie Holy Dragon Martial Soul is unbelievably powerful.

My defenses and physical strength feel at least twice as great as before.

Most frightening of all, my Martial Soul has awakened an instinctive devouring ability.

In battle, I can continually devour an opponent's attacks, Soul Power, and Blood Qi, turning them into my own strength. My ability to endure a prolonged fight is terrifying."

Yin Yu nodded in admiration.

"Taotie is famed for devouring and strength among the Nine Sons of the Dragon God.

Ting Xue, your Martial Soul is now every bit the equal of my Demon Dragon Martial Soul. In defense and endurance, it may even surpass it!"

Stroking his beard, Tuoba Xi said with a beaming face:

"Of course!

An Earth Dragon becoming a Holy Dragon—that's a leap in quality!

The Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan used to call itself the greatest Beast Spirit in the world and look down on our White-Armored Earth Dragon.

Now Changqing has Twin Martial Souls, the Light Sacred Dragon and the Dark Sacred Dragon. Yu has a top-tier Demon Dragon, and Ting Xue has evolved into a Taotie Holy Dragon!

All four of us have supreme dragon Martial Souls!

What does Yu Yuanzhen have that can compare?!"

Yin Yu could not help laughing too.

"Father-in-law is right.

Now that Ting Xue has reached Level 90, the Sect's most urgent task is to hunt for Soul Rings."

Tuoba Xi's gaze sharpened, and his expression turned serious.

"Exactly!

Ting Xue needs her ninth Soul Ring to formally become a Titled Douluo, while Changqing has reached the Level 50 bottleneck and urgently needs his fifth.

Choosing these two Soul Rings is crucial!"

Tuoba Tingxue looked at Yin Changqing and asked with concern:

"Changqing, you and your father discussed leaving in three days to hunt for Soul Rings. Have you settled on a destination?

The Star Dou Great Forest has many kinds of Soul Beasts, but most top-tier dragon species of advanced age live deep in its core. There are too many uncertainties."

Yin Changqing pondered for a moment. A thoughtful gleam passed through his eyes, and he shook his head slightly.

"Mother, the Star Dou Great Forest is closely watched year-round by the major powers and Spirit Hall, and the terrain in its core is complicated.

Seeing your Martial Soul transform completely into the Taotie Holy Dragon just now changed my mind.

This time, we won't go to the Star Dou Great Forest. We'll go to the Far North!"

"The Far North?!"

Tuoba Xi and Yin Yu froze, then both turned to Yin Changqing.

Yin Changqing laid out his reasoning.

"First, the Far North is brutally harsh and rarely visited.

Super Soul Beasts tens of thousands, or even more than a hundred thousand, years old are seldom disturbed by human Soul Masters. They retain the purest ancient bloodlines.

Second, the Taotie Holy Dragon possesses both supreme earth and devouring attributes.

In the bitter cold of the Far North, we're most likely to find colossal beasts with extraordinary bodies and Blood Qi.

The Titan Snow Demon clan, with its ancient titan bloodline, for example, or descendants of the Ancient Cold Chi and Ice Crystal Sub-Dragon hidden deep in the icy chasms.

The Soul Rings of such beasts would not only have genuinely high ages; their immense Blood Qi and powerful bone essence would make ideal foundations for your ninth Spirit Skill and Titled Douluo Golden Body!

Third, my body has long since surpassed ordinary limits. I'm also seeking a top-tier dragon species over fifty thousand years old for my fifth Soul Ring.

The depths of the Far North could serve as a crucible to temper my body, and there's a strong chance they harbor Supreme Sub-Dragons no less impressive than those in the core of Star Dou!"

In this era, people did not yet know how dangerous the Far North was.

Likewise, it held more Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Beasts than any other place on Douluo Continent at the time.

The ocean, of course, was another matter.

Nor did the Star Dou Great Forest count: Ferocious Beasts such as Di Tian lived in seclusion there, leaving only the Sky Azure Bull Python and the Titan Giant Ape.

There was a reason Yin Yu's group had originally chosen to hunt Soul Beasts in the Far North.

When Yin Changqing was little, he had casually mentioned that the Far North held richer Soul Beast resources.

That made it easier to find a suitable Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Beast.

That was what prompted Yin Yu to lead a group there and kill the Icebone Demon Dragon. He had successfully become a Titled Douluo, earning his current title of "Demon Dragon Douluo."

Yin Yu's eyes lit up, and he clapped his hands in praise.

"Brilliant!

The Far North is lethally cold, a forbidden land to ordinary Soul Masters.

But we have three Titled Douluo, along with Old Poison's battlefield control and protective Soul Power. That extreme cold can't stop us!

Better yet, Spirit Hall and the two empires have no eyes or ears there. We can hunt without holding back!"

It was worth mentioning that something had changed.

Ever since Yin Yu, Tuoba Xi, Demon Bear, and Ghost Leopard Douluo returned from hunting Soul Beasts in the Far North, its rich resources had caught Spirit Hall's attention.

Bibi Dong was already making preparations to go there and hunt for a Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Ring and Spirit Bone.
