Liu Erlong Became His Disciple, Yu Xiaogang Reached Level 30!

The hot wind in the forest gradually dissipated.

Flender sat under the tree, looking up at the branches that had been swept away by the wind, before finally looking away after a long while.

While bathed in golden light, he had a fleeting illusion that if he simply flapped his six wings, the forest before him could be easily left behind.

But at this moment, the nearly depleted Soul Power within him clearly reminded him that the power did not seem to truly belong to him.

On the other side, Liu Erlong lowered her head and clenched her fists. She still remembered the feeling of flames flowing along the scales when the dragon claws were raised.

What used to require full power to activate Soul Skill seemed to be just an ordinary breath on that dragon.

None of the three rushed to speak.

Ah Yin spread the Blue Silver Grass around them, and a pale green light slowly flowed around it. Only when her breathing gradually became steady Yu Xiaogang raise her head and look at Li Qingshan who was walking towards her.

"Teacher, that dragon from earlier... can we summon it again in the future?"

Li Qingshan sensed the unease in his tone.

The boy wasn't unaware that it was Martial Soul Fusion Skill; it was just that the power came so suddenly that he could hardly believe it.

"Able."

Li Qingshan stopped in front of the three men and answered with absolute certainty.

"The compatibility between Martial Soul cannot be faked. Now that they can merge today, they will naturally be able to in the future."

Upon hearing this, Flender and Liu Erlong both looked up.

Li Qingshan's gaze swept across their faces as he continued, "However, although you can summon it now, you cannot yet control it."

Yu Xiaogang subconsciously looked at Luo Sanpao in his arms; he remembered very clearly the feeling of helplessness he had just experienced.

Although he could clearly sense the dragon's every move, when he actually tried to activate it, there was always a force that went against his will.

Li Qingshan raised his right hand.

Three wisps of Soul Power appeared between his fingers, initially flowing independently, then slowly merging and condensing into a stable silver light.

"The three of you can merge your Soul Power, but your fighting habits are different. When facing an enemy, even a moment's hesitation is enough to expose a flaw in this fusion."

As soon as he finished speaking, one of the Soul Power suddenly turned around.

The originally condensed silver light was then deflected, and the other two strands were also affected, making it difficult to maintain their previous shape.

Seeing this, the three of them gradually became serious.

"My palm strike just now landed where your forces were misaligned," Li Qingshan said calmly, dispelling the silver light from his palm.

"You've already seen how powerful that dragon is. What you need to learn now is how to make every flap of its wings and every claw strike it uses where you truly want to attack."

Flender glanced at Yu Xiaogang, then looked at Liu Erlong, and finally nodded slowly.

This time, the excitement in the three people's eyes gradually subsided, replaced by a more serious expression.

Seeing this, Li Qingshan smiled and said:

"The fact that your Martial Soul can combine to unleash Fusion Skill is your good fortune, but how far you can develop this opportunity depends on your own abilities."

The three solemnly agreed.

Once he had regained some of his breath, Flender did not get up to leave. Instead, he glanced at Liu Erlong and suddenly said, "Master, I have another request."

Li Qingshan turned his head.

"Speak."

"Since Erlong is traveling with us and cultivates with us regularly, could you also accept her as a disciple?"

Upon hearing this, Liu Erlong suddenly raised his head, clearly not expecting Flender to bring it up for him.

Yu Xiaogang also stood up at this moment and said seriously:

"Teacher, I have the same thought. These days, Erlong has never slacked off in his cultivation, and at the same time, he has taken very good care of us."

"If we can both study under you in the future, we can look after each other."

Liu Erlong opened his mouth, but for a moment he didn't know what to say.

Li Qingshan looked at his two disciples, then turned his gaze to Liu Erlong and asked, "Erlong, are you willing?"

The girl immediately stood up straight and solemnly cupped her hands in greeting:

"Of course I'm willing."

"You've already helped me a lot by letting me come along. I've just not known how to ask for your help..."

She stopped there, but her gaze toward Li Qingshan held an undisguised expectation.

Li Qingshan smiled slightly and said:

"I've observed your progress these past few days. Since you're so eager to learn, why not become a disciple under Flender, just like him?"

Liu Erlong was stunned for a moment, then joy welled up in her eyes. She took half a step back, straightened her sleeves, and knelt down solemnly.

"Disciple Liu Erlong greets Master!"

Li Qingshan reached out and helped her up, saying gently:

"Now that you've entered the sect, settle down and cultivate with me. When we reach the next city, remember to write a letter to your mother and tell her about this."

Liu Erlong nodded vigorously.

"This disciple has remembered!"

Flender and Yu Xiaogang exchanged a smile, Bibi Dong stepped forward, took Liu Erlong's hand, and softly called her "Junior Sister."

Seeing the group of young people gathered together, Chen Jianjun stroked his beard, a smile appearing on his face.

At the same time, a notification appeared before Li Qingshan's eyes that he had successfully recruited an apprentice. He glanced at it briefly and then put away the Light Curtain, without taking out the reward at this moment.

For the next three days, the group continued their journey north.

When they stopped to rest each day, Yu Xiaogang and the other two would practice the fusion and control of their Soul Power, following Li Qingshan's instructions.

At first, there were some stumbles, but gradually they were able to sense changes in their companions' Soul Power in advance.

The three of them did not rush to condense their dragon bodies, and used the time they saved to cultivate themselves.

That evening, the convoy set up camp at the edge of the woods.

Bibi Dong was preparing dinner for Yu Xiaogang when she noticed a sudden change in the Soul Power of the boy sitting beside the carriage.

Luo Sanpao raised his head, and the golden scales on his body shone even brighter.

Li Qingshan sensed something and raised his hand to signal everyone not to approach.

Yu Xiaogang's eyes remained closed.

The Soul Power accumulated over these days was circulating along the meridians until the final week was completed, and the barrier in the body that had been difficult to overcome for so long finally loosened!

A moment later, he slowly opened his eyes, his face beaming with joy he could no longer hide. "Teacher, I've reached Level 30!"

Upon hearing this, Bibi Dong's eyes lit up immediately.

Li Qingshan approached and examined his Soul Power before smiling and nodding, saying, "It seems we need to arrange your Third Soul Ring first."

Yu Xiaogang looked down at Luo Sanpao and reached out to pat its head.

From struggling to reach level ten no matter how hard he cultivated, to now being about to obtain his Third Soul Ring, the changes he has experienced over the past few days still seem incredible to him.

"Teacher, what kind of Soul Beast should we look for this time to make Sanpao's Third Soul Ring?"

Li Qingshan glanced at him and slowly said:

"We'll see about the Soul Beast when we get to the Forest. Each Soul Beast has its own habitat and migrates; you can't expect to encounter exactly what you want."
