Douluo Continent: The Twin Holy Dragons of Light and Darkness, the Dragon Emperor Breaks Through the

The visualization diagram in Ling Feng's mind is divided into nine layers, each layer representing a different level, and is a pure secret method for enhancing mental power.

Now that he has completed the first level of visualization, his spiritual power has reached the level of an ordinary high-level Soul King.

Similarly, his physical body has also undergone a qualitative leap under the tempering of these past few months.

Ling Feng estimated that even without relying on any external force, his physical strength and mental power alone would be enough for his third spirit ring to absorb a ten-thousand-year spirit ring.

The third ring of ten thousand years—what terrifying strength that is!

"However, if there is a magic herb, we should use the magic herb first. We must get the Longing Dew."

"There's also the Eight-Starred Ice Grass and the Fiery Apricot Blossom."

These three herbs, one enhances spiritual power, and the other enhances physical strength. If absorbed successfully, the age of one's third soul ring can definitely reach a higher level.

"However, we can't rush it right now. Tomorrow is Lunar New Year's Eve, so let's focus on having a good New Year first."

Ling Feng got up and walked towards the door.

Outside the gate, the courtyard of the Qian Gu family had already been decorated with lanterns and colorful decorations by the servants, creating a lively and festive atmosphere for the New Year.

"Brother Lingfeng? You've come out of seclusion. Let's put up the Spring Festival couplets."

Hu Liena and Dugu Yan were holding Spring Festival couplets and paste, while Jin Chen and Xie Yue and a few others had already started pasting them up.

"Okay, let's go."

As evening fell, a fine snow began to fall in Wuhun City.

Ling Feng stood in the courtyard, watching Jin Chen climb the ladder to paste the horizontal scroll, Xie Yue holding the ladder beside him, while Hu Liena, with her little face upturned, directed, "It's crooked, it's crooked! Make the left side higher!"

"It's absolutely true!"

Jin Chen was unconvinced, but still moved to the left.

"Alright, alright, that's enough."

Ling Feng smiled and shook his head, then took another pair of Spring Festival couplets from Hu Liena.

"Nana, you and Yanyan go to the kitchen and see if my mother needs any help. We can handle things here."

Hu Liena pouted, but didn't argue, and pulled Dugu Yan towards the kitchen.

Dugu Yan was still clutching a piece of sugar cake in her hand, stuffing it into her mouth as she ran, her cheeks puffed out like a little hamster.

In the kitchen, Tuoba Yue'er was busy at work, with servants helping her.

Chicken soup was simmering on the stove, steam was rising from the steamer, and the cutting board was covered with chopped ingredients.

Two kitchen helpers were assisting, but they were still too busy to keep up.

"Mom, we're here to help!" Hu Liena poked her little head in.

Tuoba Yue'er turned around, smiled, and wiped the sweat from her forehead: "Okay, Nana, help me peel these garlic cloves, and Yan Yan, help me set out the bowls and chopsticks, be careful not to drop them."

Dugu Yan nodded obediently and tiptoed to reach the cupboard.

In the month since she arrived at the Spirit Hall, her face has noticeably gained weight, and her previously timid eyes have become much brighter.

"Aunt Yue, my grandfather said he's bringing two jars of good wine tonight."

Dugu Yan said as she set out the bowls and chopsticks.

"Don't keep your grandpa's little stash a secret. There will be a lot of people tonight, and two jars won't be enough to drink."

Tuoba Yue'er joked.

Dugu Yan thought for a moment, then said seriously, "Then I'll go talk to Grandpa and ask him to bring a few more jars!"

Hu Liena chuckled, "Yanyan, your grandpa will be heartbroken."

Dugu Yan tilted her head: "Why? Grandpa said his wine is my wine."

A burst of laughter came from the kitchen.

As evening approached, the snow fell even heavier.

Two square tables were set up in the main hall of Ling Feng's house. The tables were covered with red cloth and filled with melon seeds and candies.

Incense and candles burned on the altar in the main hall, where the ancestral tablets of the Qian Gu family were enshrined.

Qian Gu Xiaoye sat in the main seat, holding a teacup in his hands, glancing at the door from time to time.

Tuoba Yue'er came out of the kitchen, took off her apron, and sat down next to him.

"What did the Papal Palace say?"

She asked softly.

"They said they'd arrive later; several of the temple's priests are also coming over."

Qian Gu Xiaoye paused for a moment, then said, "The old man also sent word that he wants to come over for a visit tonight."

Tuoba Yue'er was slightly taken aback.

The old man was naturally referring to Qian Daoliu. Although this Grand Elder of the Spirit Hall had come in previous years, he usually just went through the motions and didn't stay for long.

"This year is quite lively," she said with a smile.

"Um."

Qian Gu Xiaoye nodded, his gaze falling on Ling Feng, who was sweeping snow with his younger siblings in the courtyard. A hint of relief flashed in his eyes. "Feng'er has changed a lot in the past six months."

Tuoba Yue'er followed his gaze and smiled.

As dusk fell, the lanterns outside the courtyard gate lit up.

The first to arrive was Qian Xunji, followed by two servants carrying several gift boxes. Bibi Dong was still not present.

As soon as he entered, he cupped his hands and said with a smile, "Brother Qiangu, Sister-in-law Yue'er, Happy New Year."

"Brother Ji, you're too kind. Please come in."

Qian Gu Xiaoye rose to greet him.

Qian Xunji waved his hand: "I just came here to freeload a meal."

He then looked at the children running towards him in the yard, "Where's Xiaoxue?"

"He's inside, playing with Yan Yan."

Tuoba Yue'er smiled.

As soon as she finished speaking, Qian Renxue ran out of the house and threw herself into Qian Xunji's arms: "Daddy!"

Qian Xunji picked up her daughter, smiling as she tapped her nose: "You've gained weight again. Have you been eating Aunt Yue's cooking every day?"

Qian Renxue giggled and hugged her father's neck tightly.

Not long after, Dugu Bo arrived.

Sure enough, he came in carrying four jars of wine, strung together with hemp rope, swaying as he went.

As soon as Dugu Yan saw her grandfather, she ran over to him.

"grandfather!"

"Why."

Dugu Bo patted his granddaughter's head and handed the wine to the servant who came to greet him, "Little girl, how are you doing here?"

"That's great!"

Dugu Yan nodded vigorously, "Aunt Yue's cooking is delicious! Sister Xiaoxue and Sister Nana play with me every day, and Brother Lingfeng even teaches me to read!"

Dugu Bo smiled, a complex look in his eyes.

He looked at Qian Gu Xiao Ye and Qian Xun Ji who came out to greet him, and cupped his hands in greeting.

"Excuse me, gentlemen."

"Senior Dugu, you're too kind. Please."

Qian Gu Xiao Ye stepped aside to make way.

When Dugu Bo entered, his gaze swept over the red lanterns and Spring Festival couplets hanging in the courtyard, and he paused slightly.

He couldn't remember how many years it had been since he had properly celebrated the Lunar New Year.

Since his wife passed away and his son and daughter-in-law died, every New Year's Eve he and his granddaughter have only eaten a quiet meal together. Sometimes when he drinks too much, Yan Yan will curl up in a corner and play by herself.

This year is quite lively.

Just then, footsteps sounded outside the door again.

Qianjun Douluo and Jiangmo Douluo arrived together, both dressed in casual clothes with faint smiles on their faces.

Qian Gu Xiaoye hurriedly went to greet them: "You two uncles have arrived, please come in."

"Um."

Qianjun Douluo nodded, his gaze falling on Ling Feng, who was building a snowman with Qian Renxue and the others in the courtyard. "Little Feng has made great progress in the past six months."

"Thanks to the guidance of my two uncles," Qian Gu Xiao Ye said with a smile.

The Demon-Slaying Douluo waved his hand: "It's his own merit that's earned him; it has nothing to do with us."

A few more people came in from outside.

Leading the way was Golden Crocodile Douluo, followed by several other worshippers from the Hall of Worship—Azure Phoenix Douluo, Lion Douluo, and Light Feather Douluo.

"Where is the old man?" Qianxun asked urgently.

"We'll be there shortly."

Golden Crocodile Douluo laughed, "Let's go first, don't keep the children waiting."

The main hall immediately became lively.
