Dugu Bo looked at Dugu Yan with a smile, " Yan'er, this is the first time Grandpa has heard you praise someone your own age. It's rare to see someone so highly praised by my granddaughter. I'd like to see him for myself." His gaze was intense. "Come, take me to meet this Yu Tianheng."
"He should be at the Heaven Dou Royal Academy right now, right?"
Dugu Yan nodded, smiling helplessly. She was already used to her grandfather's sudden curiosity. "Okay, but Grandpa, you have to be gentle with him, don't scare him."
After saying that, Dugu Yan got up and led the way. The two figures quickly disappeared and headed towards the direction of Yu Tianheng's residence.
But when they arrived, they found that Yu Tianheng was not there.
Dugu Yan knew that Yu Tianheng had gone to cultivate in the back mountain of the academy, where no one would disturb him.
Two quarters of an hour later, as Dugu Yan led Dugu Bo into the cultivation secret realm behind the Heaven Dou Royal Academy, faint thunder rumbled from the clouds. The spiritual plants on both sides of the bluestone path drooped under the invisible pressure, and a violent aura filled the air.
"This is it." Dugu Yan pointed to the courtyard in front of her, which was Entanglement lightning. The wind chimes hanging under the eaves were trembling violently and emitting a sharp buzzing sound.
Dugu Bo narrowed his eyes, his emerald green pupils slightly contracting—he saw that the purple lightning erupting from within the courtyard walls contained a power that even made this Titled Douluo feel a chill.
Dugu Bo grew increasingly curious, so he pushed open the half-closed wooden door, and lightning instantly surged forth. Yu Tianheng sat cross-legged on a futon, his Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Martial Soul half-manifested behind him, and nine Thunder chains descended from the void, enveloping him in a human-shaped lightning prison. Each chain was shrouded in mysterious runes, resonating with the Thunder erupting from his body, causing the blue bricks on the ground to crack.
Dugu Bo subconsciously took a half step back. The Jade Phosphorous Serpent Emperor Poison in his sleeve was about to rise, but it emitted a piercing hiss the moment it touched the lightning and dissipated into green smoke. His pupils shrank sharply. This was the first time in many years that his deadly poison had been forcibly suppressed without even touching his opponent.
"This kid is cultivating, but he seems a bit off!" Dugu Bo murmured, his gaze fixed on the faint lightning pattern between Yu Tianheng's brows.
He had never seen such markings on Soul Master before, nor had he ever heard of this happening to a direct Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan Soul Master cultivation.
Suddenly, the lightning intensified, Yu Tianheng was surrounded by Thunder. A Thunder as thick as a thumb struck the ground, blasting a charred crater in the bluestone.
Dugu Yan's face paled. She tried to pull Dugu Bo back, but Dugu Bo instead took a step forward, his fear turning into fervent curiosity. "What a lad! He's got some interesting qualities!"
"I'd like to see what kind of cultivation you're practicing!"
He then put his hands behind his back and waited to the side for Yu Tianheng to finish his cultivation.
Seeing this, Dugu Yan quietly waited to the side.
Meanwhile, Yu Tianheng sensed the approaching person as soon as Dugu Bo stepped within a hundred feet of him, but he did not stop cultivating because he was currently breaking through.
However, it wasn't a breakthrough in Martial Soul, but rather in Martial Dao.
He is currently practicing his internal energy cultivation technique, mobilizing his qi and blood, as well as the power of Thunder, to temper his internal organs and achieve the goal of Organ Refining.
Half an hour later, Yu Tianheng finished his cultivation and reached the Organ Refining Realm Third Stage Martial Dao.
Their strength has improved.
He slowly opened his eyes, looked at Dugu Bo standing not far away, and then stood up. "This must be the world-renowned Poison Douluo Dugu Bo. Junior Yu Tianheng greets senior."
Dugu Bo looked him up and down, a meaningful smile playing on his lips. "Oh, you're Yu Tianheng, Yanyan's boyfriend?" Yu Tianheng didn't seem to mind, but Dugu Yan felt her face flush.
Yu Tianheng calmly replied, "Yes, senior. Yanyan and I are truly in love, and we hope you will grant our wish."
Dugu Bo stood up and slowly walked to Yu Tianheng's side, circling him as he spoke, " The Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan is indeed a respectable lineage. However, you can't just talk the talk of marrying my granddaughter." Yu Tianheng straightened his back, his eyes resolute, "Senior, rest assured, I will definitely strive to improve my strength and will not let Yanyan suffer any injustice."
Dugu Bo gave a soft snort, "Strength isn't something you can just talk about. In the Soul Master World, without strength, everything is just empty talk. What's your cultivation level now?"
Although he had previously learned from his granddaughter Dugu Yan that Yu Tianheng's current Soul Power Level was 45, seeing is believing, and he still needed to confirm it himself.
Yu Tianheng answered truthfully, "This junior is currently a level 45 Soul Ancestor."
After saying this, Yu Tianheng took a deep breath, and his Soul Power surged throughout his body.
In an instant, a surge of immense Soul Power erupted from his body, and rings of Soul Ring slowly rose from beneath his feet.
First came two bright Yellow Soul Ring, their dazzling light illuminating the surroundings in a golden glow—two Hundred-Year Soul Ring.
Following that was a deep purple Soul Ring, radiating a mysterious and powerful aura, with a flowing purple halo— Thousand-Year Soul Ring.
Finally, a dense, inky black Soul Ring slowly emerged, exuding a powerful sense of oppression that seemed to freeze the surrounding space.
It's Ten Thousand Year Soul Ring!
The four Soul Ring were neatly arranged, two yellow, one purple, and one black, demonstrating Yu Tianheng's current strength as a level 45 Soul Ancestor.
Dugu Bo had been calm all along, but the moment those four Soul Ring appeared, his eyes widened in shock, and he could no longer hide his astonishment. He couldn't help but take a step back, his eyes filled with disbelief.
This... how is this possible? Reaching level 45 at such a young age is one thing, perhaps this kid is exceptionally talented. Although such people are rare, perhaps one in a hundred years, they do exist. But how could he possess Ten Thousand Year Soul Ring at this stage?
Dugu Bo muttered to himself, his heart churning with turmoil. He knew all too well how much effort and opportunity it would take to reach this point, and Yu Tianheng's potential was truly beyond his imagination.
"No... not bad!" Dugu Bo's voice was so hoarse that even he was unfamiliar with it. For the first time in his life, the Poison Douluo felt his breath catch in his throat.
He had seen many Soul Master with the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Martial Soul, but such a terrifying cultivation speed, especially the ability to absorb Ten-Thousand-Year Soul Beast with the fourth Soul Ring, was something he had never seen before, even after traversing the continent for decades.
It can be said that Yu Tianheng's existence completely shattered his understanding.
If such a person grows up, he will surely stand at the top of the Soul Master World in the future.
Fortunately, Yu Tianheng and Dugu Yan had a close relationship and were on the same side. If it were someone else, Dugu Bo would probably have already decided to kill him.
Those who cannot be used by me should be eliminated!
