Douluo Continent: Starting with Self-Created Soul Rings

Bai Lu also looked at Gu Ziyi.

Gu Ziyi rolled his eyes at Bai Lu in his heart.

I was just telling him not to overthink it, and now he's asking me for help.

"It's alright, it's not a big problem!"

Gu Ziyi's calm smile immediately put Tang Yuehua, who was somewhat at a loss, at ease.

Tang Yuehua said nothing, but stared intently at Gu Ziyi with her beautiful eyes, waiting for him to tell her what to do.

"While you were cultivating, your talent domain must have recovered some energy as well, but your cultivation was not interrupted..."

"Therefore, as long as you enter a state of cultivation, your innate domain will not hinder your cultivation!"

"Then next time you cultivate, you just need to exhaust your soul power again, and then cultivate until you reach saturation. This way, your soul power can still gradually increase..."

"But if you do that, you'll have to exhaust your soul power every time you cultivate, which will be very difficult!"

"Only when your strength grows to the point where your talent domain can no longer interfere with you can you cultivate normally!"

Gu Ziyi made a gesture of pushing up his glasses, and then calmly spoke.

"Yup!"

"I'm so stupid, I didn't even think of something so simple!"

"Cousin, you don't need to worry anymore. You can still continue your cultivation!"

Upon hearing this, Bai Lu immediately slapped his right fist with his left hand, excitedly exclaiming.

"Yes, Gu Ziyi, thank you so much!"

Tang Yuehua nodded excitedly, and then sincerely thanked Gu Ziyi again.

"I have just received your thanks!"

Gu Ziyi tapped his cheek and smiled with satisfaction.

"..."

Upon hearing this, Tang Yuehua's pretty face immediately turned red, and she lowered her head in embarrassment.

……

Asking for a monthly ticket.

Chapter 19 Going Further

"Gu Ziyi!"

Bai Lu immediately glared at Gu Ziyi.

"Okay, I won't say anymore. I've forgotten what Tang Yuehua just did!"

"Since you are from the Haotian Sect, you must already possess advanced meditation techniques. I won't teach you the one I created, as I suppose you don't need it!"

Gu Ziyi laughed and then quickly changed the subject.

"It's good that you know!"

Bai Lu said irritably that she just couldn't stand Gu Ziyi flirting with her cousin.

As for Gu Ziyi's self-created advanced meditation technique, she and Tang Yuehua definitely didn't need it.

"Okay, I'll be going now. Tang Yuehua, just cultivate as I told you. If you have any more questions, just come find me!"

Seeing that the atmosphere was not good, Gu Ziyi quickly said goodbye.

"Look how smug he is! Cousin, you were too impulsive just now. Even if you're excited, you shouldn't act like that..."

Bai Lu pouted as she watched Gu Ziyi's departing figure, then scolded Tang Yuehua.

"Okay, I know, cousin..."

"I was just too excited..."

Tang Yuehua blushed and admitted her mistake.

The thought that she had just kissed Gu Ziyi made Tang Yuehua's heart race.

"Cousin, you don't actually like him, do you?"

Upon seeing Tang Yuehua's appearance, Bailu's expression immediately turned serious.

"I...I don't know!"

Tang Yuehua blushed even more, as if her thoughts had been exposed.

However, looking at Tang Yuehua's expression, Bailu clearly understood that her cousin had probably really fallen for Gu Ziyi.

That's true. Gu Ziyi is quite good-looking, and he's also my cousin's only male friend over the years. He even helped her solve her problem of not being able to cultivate. It's normal for my cousin to like him.

"Cousin, don't forget you're the eldest daughter of the Haotian Sect. The sect will never accept him!"

Upon realizing this, Bailu quickly reminded Tang Yuehua.

“I…I know…” Tang Yuehua’s face paled slightly upon hearing Bai Lu’s words.

She knew it all along, but she just couldn't control her heart!

She had a crush on Gu Ziyi long before!

If Gu Ziyi hadn't helped her solve her cultivation problem, she could have controlled herself. But after Gu Ziyi helped her solve her inability to cultivate, Tang Yuehua found that she really couldn't control her feelings for Gu Ziyi.

However, she was also well aware that it would be difficult for the sect to accept Gu Ziyi.

Thinking about this, Tang Yuehua felt a tightness in her chest.

Seeing Tang Yuehua's appearance, Bailu felt a little sorry for her and didn't say anything more about Tang Yuehua. As long as her cousin understood, that was enough.

She believed her cousin could control herself.

"Cousin, now that you can cultivate, shouldn't we go back to the sect?"

"We should tell our uncle and his family this good news. I'm sure they'll be very excited!"

Then, Bailu told her cousin about going back.

"……don't want!"

Tang Yuehua's first reaction upon hearing Bai Lu's words was to refuse.

She also wanted to go back now and tell her father, older brother, and second older brother the good news.

Upon hearing Bai Lu's words, her first reaction was to separate from Gu Ziyi, so she subconsciously didn't want to go back.

"...Cousin, it's not certain whether my cultivation problem has really been solved. What if other problems arise?"

"That would only make my father and the others happy for nothing, and I don't want to disappoint them again!"

"So, cousin, let's not go back yet. Let me... let me break through to level 10 and make sure my cultivation is really okay before we go back..."

Furthermore, Tang Yuehua quickly came up with an excuse, and it was reasonable and well-founded.

"...Alright, then we'll wait until you break through level 10 before we go back!"

Looking at Tang Yuehua's expression, Bailu ultimately couldn't bear to refuse.

Moreover, what my cousin said makes sense. It's unclear whether there will be any problems with her cultivation. Here, she can always find Gu Ziyi.

Unconsciously, she also developed confidence in Gu Ziyi's wisdom, at least more so than she trusted the elders of the sect.

Of course, this only applies to certain aspects, especially Tang Yuehua's cultivation.

"Okay! Thank you, cousin!"

Upon hearing Bai Lu's agreement, Tang Yuehua immediately smiled happily.

……

In the following period, Gu Ziyi could clearly feel the change in Tang Yuehua's attitude towards him.

Tang Yuehua always kept her eyes on him.

Gu Ziyi naturally knew what this situation meant.

Just as Gu Ziyi was about to seize the opportunity and take Tang Yuehua away, Bai Lu seemed to have anticipated something and kept a close watch on them, preventing Gu Ziyi and Tang Yuehua from having any time alone together.

After trying several times, Gu Ziyi found that Tang Yuehua was also cooperating with Bai Lu to avoid being alone with him and was not giving him any further opportunities, so he gave up for the time being.

Gu Ziyi refocused on his cultivation.

After learning that his advanced meditation technique could improve the quality of his spirit rings, Gu Ziyi tried to control this change actively in his spare time.

Change the passive improvement brought about by practicing advanced meditation techniques into an active improvement.

Unfortunately, there was no progress, so Gu Ziyi could only improve the quality of his soul rings while practicing advanced meditation techniques.

During this time, Tang Yuehua's cultivation proceeded without any problems. Following the method taught to her by Gu Ziyi, although each cultivation required exhausting her soul power, which was very arduous, Tang Yuehua used this method to gradually improve her soul power.

Four months later, Gu Ziyi's soul power level broke through to level 14.

After mastering advanced meditation techniques, Gu Ziyi's cultivation speed increased slightly.

Tang Yuehua, whom Gu Ziyi had been concerned about, finally broke through to level 10 the day after Gu Ziyi broke through to level 14.
