Douluo Dalu: The Frozen Throne

Chapter 197: Cultivation Progress, Combination of Work and Rest

Eyes shifted.

Hundreds of kilometers south of Xingluo City, Qiangu Yueyin was sitting alone by the window in a carriage moving at a constant speed. The breeze entered the carriage through the curtains. Meng Ning approached cautiously. Qiangu Yueyin glanced at her and then moved.

"If you want to sit by the window, just say so. Don't keep staring at me. If someone doesn't know, they might think I'm bullying a little girl."

Meng Ning chuckled. During this period of time, because of sufficient love and care, and the lack of psychological burden and pressure, her temperament has become more lively and lovely. She is a very popular presence wherever she goes. Qiangu Yueyin has been with her for quite a while, so they are naturally familiar with each other. Although they don't talk much on weekdays, Qiangu Yueyin believes that she will not compete with a child for anything.

On the other side of the carriage, Ling Luochen's gaze also fell on Qiangu Yueyin vaguely, with a hint of inquiry in her eyes. The carriage was neither big nor small, and she seemed to smell Shu Yan's scent on Qiangu Yueyin, and it was an extremely strong scent. Su Tong on the side also had a strange expression on her face, but she also felt that Qiangu Yueyin was a little different today.

The original heroic spirit and immaturity seemed to have faded away in an instant, and there was a feeling of... a young woman in Tian Ling's body...

After returning to God, Su Tong could only pray in her heart that she was wrong. It’s not that she couldn’t accept Shu Yan’s love, but... even rabbits don’t eat grass near their burrows, so it’s impossible for all her brothers to be gone, right... ?
Regarding this... Shu Yan can only say that people's appetites vary, and he just likes the grass in his own backyard!
Ye Guyi, who was sitting on the other side of the carriage, just watched the scene with a calm expression. It was not that she couldn't get along with everyone, but except Meng Ning, everyone else in the carriage had a cold personality. Almost no one was willing to take the initiative to start a conversation, so she naturally wouldn't take the initiative to speak.

In fact, she didn't want to come out with them at first. Her cultivation was about to break through, and she had planned to concentrate on training for a while. But when she heard that they might have to wipe out the evil soul masters, she suddenly became interested.

Holy angels and evil are irreconcilable!
What evil soul masters? They were clearly the experience packs she had always dreamed of. If there were enough of them, she might be able to kill them all at once until she reached a great realm. Unfortunately, in the original Douluo Three Kingdoms, there were not as many evil soul masters as in the Sun and Moon Empire for her to hunt and kill. Moreover, she was only a soul king now, and she did not have much ability to chase after those high-level evil soul masters...

Qiangu Yueyin also noticed the gazes of the three people. She was in a complicated mood. The previous scenes made her too embarrassed to face others, but she couldn't expose the abnormality. The abnormal feeling in her body could not be faked. The pain when she moved just now was not ordinary...

……

Shu Yan has been living too comfortably lately.

During this year and more, only the three months in the Sun-Moon Empire were tense and exciting. Compared with that, the other days were like living in the clouds.

When he was in the Sun-Moon Empire, he "borrowed" a lot of high-level soul guides from many nobles. Among them, there were several soul guides equipped by the Sun-Moon Empire's army. Shu Yan simply gave them to Xu Jiawei and asked him to study them. Maybe they could copy them. After all, the soul guides that could be used on the battlefield in the Star Luo Empire's army were almost an era behind them.

Su Mingxuan has been staying in Han Lin's mansion recently, concentrating on studying soul guides. Shu Yan gave them a lot of rare metals. Of course, these were also lent to him by some kind-hearted forces in the Sun and Moon Empire. For this, Shu Yan was very grateful.

The eighth-level and a half soul guide device "Fall of the Netherworld" originally created by Han Lin has also been upgraded to a ninth-level soul guide device by the two of them. Although it still has some flaws, its power is much stronger than before.

The "Titan Snow Demon Beast Spirit" in this soul guide was previously fed a large number of sea soul beast souls by Shu Yan in the Arctic Ice Sea, plus some miscellaneous things, and now it has the strength of a Titled Douluo, not to mention that the attack methods of this thing are unpredictable. Combined with the auxiliary amplification control effect of the soul guide itself, it can be seen how difficult it is. Shu Yan left it in Su Tong's hands. Although his sister has a cold personality, she is very good to him. However, she herself is also a person who can't sit still. She thinks about training and fighting all day long. Occasionally, she heard Han Ruoruo talking about the strong people in the Shrek Inner Court, and she even thought about going to Shrek Academy to fight.

In this regard, Shu Yan could only say... She is worthy of being his sister!

Su Tong's soul power level is now level sixty-six, one level lower than Ling Luochen. Ling Luochen is slightly one level higher than her because she has absorbed another soul bone, which is the 50,000-year-old right arm bone left to her by Grandpa Ling. It came from a 50,000-year-old Northern Territory golden eagle and is also a top-grade soul bone.

Shu Yan didn't say much about her absorbing this soul bone. He would replace it with a better soul bone later. Now, in order to quickly get through the slow stage of cultivation before level 70, absorbing soul bones other than the head soul bone was not a big deal.

Su Tong was also ready to start absorbing soul bones, but she would probably have to wait until she broke through level 68. Shu Yan was concerned about the affairs of the girls, but they were all smart people and knew how to act in moderation, so Shu Yan naturally didn't need to worry too much.

Of course, Luo Qinghan, who is currently receiving treatment, is an exception. With a top-notch spiritual martial soul, her potential will skyrocket after her old leg injury heals in the future. However, she was inexplicably stupid and absorbed a piece of junk head soul bone, which affected her potential. It's not that Shu Yan was meddling, but mainly because this really conflicted with Luo Qinghan's style of doing things.

As for Shu Yan himself... in this year, his soul power has increased by three levels, and now it is at level 88. Before the next Soul Master Competition, he has the hope of breaking through to the Titled Douluo. Of course, this is based on the premise that he can successfully condense the complementary Yin and Yang dual soul cores to break through to the Titled Douluo.

To successfully condense the complementary Yin-Yang dual soul cores would undoubtedly take a lot of effort on his part, and he might have to go into seclusion for a while. The promise he made to Xu Jiujiu could not be voided, so he needed to grasp the time. If he could not successfully condense it before the Soul Master Competition, it would have to be postponed temporarily, which would take about a month, and Shu Yan had plenty of time.

Don’t you even look at the current time period? If Shu Yan remembers correctly, Huo Yuhao is probably only a level 10 spirit master now…

Xu Jiujiu's cultivation speed is not slow either. During this year, she relied on the residual soul power of the Xingluo Spirit Pearl in her body and the help of several elders from the Xingguan Sect to draw on the star power to break through level five. Coupled with the three levels of improvement from absorbing soul rings and soul bones, she is now level 68. It is natural for her to break through to Soul Saint before the competition. By then, let alone relying on Shu Yan, why can't Xu Jiujiu, a powerful princess with three hundred thousand year soul rings + two hundred thousand year soul bones + a super martial soul + home advantage, beat a group of little guys at the Soul Emperor and Soul King level?
All we can say is that the winner is already clear before the competition even begins.

After looking at the weather today, Shu Yan decisively gave up the boring practice.

The princess's mansion finally had some peace and quiet for a while. Today, he planned to let the princess dance in a light veil under the setting sun. The main course for the evening was Xu Jiujiu, who was dressed in a formal palace dress...

I can only say that cultivation is not a one-track mind rush, but requires a combination of work and rest...
