Douluo: Martial Soul White Tiger, I am the White Emperor of Heaven

Chapter 270 Taking the Dragon Pill, Second Martial Soul?
"Hey!"

Dai Chengfeng stared intently at it, a slight sigh escaping his lips.

The earth vein core inside the wooden box had completely lost all its luster and spirituality, turning into a dull, worthless rock.

but……

On the lotus seat of the Four Symbols and Five Elements Lotus, the lotus leaf representing the earth element is clearly visible.

It only occupies more than three-fifths of the entire area, and although it still exudes a rich, earthy yellow halo, it is heavy, stable, and profound, containing a reassuring and powerful earth force.

At the very tip, covering about two-fifths of the entire leaf, remains that white area representing the absence of any attribute!

"As expected... it still doesn't work."

"This newly grown earth-element lotus leaf has not yet reached its full potential; it has only grown to half its full size and is not yet sufficient for the Four Symbols and Five Elements Lotus to bloom and bear fruit."

A helpless smile appeared on Dai Chengfeng's lips, but there was not much disappointment in his eyes.

After all, this outcome was something he had already anticipated.

The Four Symbols and Five Elements Lotus, being the pinnacle of celestial treasures, would be a disgrace if it matured so easily.

The fact that this earth vein core could help him condense most of the lotus leaf was an unexpected bonus, proving that its quality was indeed extraordinary and that his efforts were in the right direction.

"That's fine!"

Dai Chengfeng muttered to himself, his eyes gleaming even brighter, "This is a good thing!"

"The more difficult it is to mature, the greater the medicinal power of the Four Symbols and Five Elements Lotus will be. Once it is fully grown, the fortune it will bring me will certainly be even greater!"

"And now, what I need is..."

"It's just another search for an even more top-tier earth-attribute treasure!"

Dai Chengfeng shook his head, and with great anticipation, carefully stored the rare immortal herb back in his soul storage device for safekeeping.

"Then, next..."

Dai Chengfeng's gaze suddenly became extremely solemn, even carrying an unprecedented intensity and excitement.

"This is the real, most important thing!"

His heart began to beat faster involuntarily.

The storage soul tool flashed with a faint light, and the room was instantly filled with an indescribable sense of majesty!

hum!
The air seemed to freeze for a moment, and even the light outside the window seemed to dim slightly.

The next second, a pure white jade stone, the size of an infant's fist, floated quietly in Dai Chengfeng's outstretched palm. This was none other than the Dragon Pill!
"call!"

Feeling the vast, majestic aura within the Dragon Pill, Dai Chengfeng's heart involuntarily began to beat faster.

"It was only when Huo Yuhao was holding the Dark Dagger, having inflicted nine cuts and eighteen holes on himself, and was critically injured, that Long Xiaoyao fed him the Dragon Pill."

Information about the Dragon Pill flashed through Dai Chengfeng's mind: "Its principle must be that the extremely severe injury was used as a trigger, and the body was in a state of near collapse when an unprecedented 'gap' was opened, so that it could accommodate and bear the domineering energy impact of the Dragon Pill."

"And in the face of life and death, a miraculous transformation of physical reshaping and sublimation is achieved!"

Dai Chengfeng lowered his head and began to examine himself.

At this moment, the damage caused by the exploding ring is still clearly perceptible.

Although there were no external injuries, the meridians were ruptured and covered with fine cracks; the dantian was like a dried-up, cracked riverbed, empty and devoid of any soul power; the internal organs also suffered a huge shock, with constant dull pain...

It could be said that his entire body was weaker than ever before. "Unexpectedly, the damage caused by the exploding ring has turned out to be a blessing in disguise," Dai Chengfeng's eyes gleamed. "At this moment, I am almost in another form of 'near death'."

"Isn't this the perfect 'container' to contain the Dragon Pill's violent energy?"

“It’s even more suitable than Huo Yuhao. Not only is it weak, but it also lacks the obstruction of surging soul power and the protection of powerful energy. It is absolutely the most ideal ‘canvas’ for the power of the Dragon Pill to reshape my body!”

Thinking of this, Dai Chengfeng became even more excited, "Huo Yuhao used the Dragon Pill to make his physical body reach a level of strength comparable to that of a giant dragon."

"And my foundation is far stronger than his back then!"

Dai Chengfeng couldn't help but clench his fists, feeling the immense power still hidden deep within his muscles and bones, even in his weakened state:

"My physical body has been repeatedly tempered by the domineering and unparalleled innate Geng metal energy every day since I obtained my first soul ring!"

“Every bone, every inch of flesh, has long been honed to be incredibly tough.”

"In addition, the body-tempering immortal herbs I consumed later allowed me to cultivate an indestructible body. I'm afraid my physical strength is now no less than that of Huo Yuhao after he successfully fused with the Dragon Pill!"

"In some purely attributes, it may even surpass them!"

"What's next?"

An even more fervent thought, like a burning star, suddenly exploded in Dai Chengfeng's heart:

"Huo Yuhao not only strengthened his physical body with the immense life force and primal energy provided by the Dragon Pill, but also laid the foundation for unlocking his second soul core in the future!"

“Then I,” Dai Chengfeng’s eyes clearly showed his expectation, “if I can perfectly absorb this dragon pill, then I’ll think of another way…”

"Doesn't that mean we also have the possibility of unlocking a second martial soul?!"

"If you don't take what Heaven offers, you will suffer the consequences!"

In that instant, Dai Chengfeng had no more hesitation, only a resolute determination like burning one's boats.

"It's now!"

He opened his mouth and swallowed the dragon pill in one gulp!

The Dragon Pill didn't taste bad; in fact, it felt quite strange. Also, it didn't dissolve like a regular pill.

Instead, it flows down the throat and sinks deep into the abdominal cavity.

"boom--!"

In an instant, Dai Chengfeng felt as if billions of thunderbolts were exploding inside his body at the same time!

The dormant physical body was as if it had been thrown into the core of a purgatory furnace!
That was not an external energy shock, but a radical transformation originating from the deepest part of life!

The essence of the dragon's origin contained within the Dragon Pill has finally found an outlet.

There was no outward brilliance, no earth-shattering momentum; all the dramatic changes were condensed within Dai Chengfeng's seemingly calm body, which was undergoing a world-destroying storm.

pain!
An indescribable, excruciating pain instantly swept through every nerve ending!
It wasn't the sharp pain of being chopped or hacked, but rather an endless torture that crushed, decomposed, and rebuilt the entire body at the most basic particle level!
The power of the Dragon Pill is domineering, tyrannical, and supreme!
Like a mighty torrent, it completely ignored Dai Chengfeng's weakened state, rushing into his limbs, internal organs, every drop of blood, every bone, and every muscle fiber with overwhelming force...

"Humph!"

Even Dai Chengfeng couldn't help but groan for a moment, his body trembling violently, but he still gritted his teeth tightly.

But soon, blood seeped from his gums, and large beads of cold sweat soaked through his clothes, only to be vaporized by the high temperature rising from his body in the next moment.

Muscles and bones roared in unison, like the thunderous roar of tigers and leopards!
