Douluo Continent: Half-level Innate Realm, but a Sword Cultivator with a Heart-Only Mind

After sending his parents to the Crown Prince's residence, Qi Dao returned to Tiandou Academy to resume his daily cultivation.

The reason is simple: the Soul Battle Arena is now too useless for him.

After reaching the state of oneness with the sword, Qi Dao, though only level 34, could rarely be stopped by any Soul Master below the Soul Emperor level once he unleashed his Heart Sword state and transformed into a sword.

Soul Kings, and even Soul Emperors, already hold considerable positions in the Empire and rarely engage in Soul Battles in the Great Soul Arena for money.

Therefore, even if Qi Dao wanted to go to the Great Soul Arena to fight, it would be difficult to find a suitable opponent.

However, the same applies to training at the Heaven Dou Academy.

Although consuming the two immortal herbs, Fiery Apricot and Eight-Cornered Mystic Ice Grass, did not enhance Qi Dao's soul power, it did transform his physique.

After returning to Tiandou Academy from Notting Academy, his soul power increased by five levels in just one year, from level thirty-four to level thirty-nine.

His cultivation speed astonished even Dugu Bo.

Five levels in one year!

Even the cultivation speed of someone with innate full soul power isn't this terrifying!

Moreover, not only Qi Dao, but Dugu Yan also advanced four levels.

He broke through from level 42 to level 46.

In terms of rank alone, Dugu Yan is already the number one student in Tiandou Academy.

This shows just how terrifying the effects of the miraculous herb are!

After reaching level thirty-nine, Qi Dao naturally did not forget the rare and extraordinary Chrysanthemum in the Yin-Yang Well of Ice and Fire.

He has already absorbed more than 70% of the medicinal effects of the Fiery Apricot and the Eight-Cornered Mystic Ice Grass in his body, so he should be able to take the Qirong Tongtian Chrysanthemum now without any problems.

Moreover, it is conceivable that once Qi Dao consumes the Qi Rong Tong Tian Ju, his level will inevitably experience another surge.

Dugu Bo had known about Qi Dao's plans for a long time, so after Qi Dao reached level thirty-nine, he accompanied him back to the Ice and Fire Yin-Yang Well.

Since Dugu Bo broke through to level 94, he has upgraded the poison array outside the Ice and Fire Yin-Yang Well.

Previously, his poison array could only pose a threat to Soul Saints and Soul Douluos at most.

But now, even titled Douluo with weak poison resistance are suffering setbacks in his poison array.

As for which type of Soul Master has weak poison resistance?

Naturally, they are weapon spirit masters!

Once a Beast Soul Master possesses a Martial Soul, all their resistances will be greatly enhanced.

The eye of ice and fire.

Qi Dao looked at the large purple chrysanthemum in the herb garden, and even he couldn't help but feel a surge of excitement.

Not to mention that the Qirong Tongtian Chrysanthemum can strengthen one's physique, the increase in soul power it provides is equivalent to more than a year of arduous training.

"Qi Dao, are you sure there's no problem?"

Dugu Bo's expression turned slightly serious.

He remembered Qi Dao saying that these immortal herbs were powerful and unique, and could not be taken continuously.

Qi Dao took a deep breath and said, "If one takes different immortal herbs with conflicting medicinal properties, it is indeed extremely dangerous. At best, the effects of the medicine will cancel each other out, resulting in less effective results; at worst, it will endanger one's life."

"However, the Qirong Tongtian Chrysanthemum is a neutral medicinal herb, and the chances of it conflicting with the medicinal properties of the Liehuo Xingjiaoshu and Bajiao Xuanbing are not high."

"Moreover, I have already digested more than 70% of the effects of the two immortal herbs in my body, so there should be no danger in taking the Qirong Tongtian Chrysanthemum now."

"It's good that you know what's going on."

Dugu Bo nodded upon hearing this. It wasn't that he was reluctant to part with this immortal herb; his main concern was that Qi Dao might experience problems after consuming it.

Qi Dao smiled calmly, then walked up to the Qi Rong Tong Tian Ju.

A moment later, he plucked the stem of the Qirong Tongtian Chrysanthemum and walked to an open space where he sat cross-legged.

To eat the Qirong Tongtianju chrysanthemum, you need to eat the central stamen first, and then eat the petals one by one.

After consuming the Qi Rong Tong Tian Ju, Qi Dao immediately felt a huge and domineering power within his body, and he immediately closed his eyes to absorb it.

However, perhaps because he had already taken the Fiery Apricot and the Eight-Cornered Mystic Ice Grass, Qi Dao could feel that the medicinal power of the Qi Rong Tong Tian Chrysanthemum in his body was extremely resistant to being absorbed into his body.

Moreover, this immense medicinal power was rampaging through Qi Dao's body, impacting every inch of his flesh and every meridian.

In an instant, Qi Dao's body trembled violently, his brows furrowed, veins bulged on his forehead, and a ferocious look appeared on his face.

This situation instantly made Dugu Bo's heart leap into his throat.

"You wouldn't accidentally trip and fall in this gutter, would you?"

Dugu Bo looked tense, secretly sweating for Qi Dao.

Time passed by, second by second.

Seeing Qi Dao's expression gradually return from ferocity to calm and peaceful, Dugu Bo finally breathed a sigh of relief.

Several hours later.

A surge of powerful soul energy emanated from Qi Dao's body.

His body trembled slightly, and he suddenly opened his eyes.

Not far away, Dugu Bo's face showed excitement upon seeing this.

"It's done!"

Qi Dao slowly stood up from the ground, stretched his muscles and bones slightly, and a series of explosive sounds immediately came from his limbs and bones.

Although his height remained unchanged, his muscles visibly became more toned. While he wasn't the bulky type, his physique looked like granite, with every muscle exuding explosive power.

Dugu Bo strode forward, looked Qi Dao up and down, and then asked impatiently, "Qi Dao, how are you feeling now?"

Qi Dao grinned.

"I feel more refreshed than ever before, and I've also broken through the level 40 bottleneck."

Dugu Bo said, "You really gave me a fright just now. I almost thought you were going to fail because of this."

After hearing this, Qi Dao recalled the process of absorbing the Qi Rong Tong Tian Ju (奇茸通天菊) and a look of relief appeared on his face.

"I did underestimate the difficulty of continuously absorbing the immortal herbs."

"Fortunately, I didn't take this Qirong Tongtian Chrysanthemum immediately after taking the Fiery Apricot and the Eight-Cornered Ice Grass. Otherwise, even if I could have survived, my body would have been completely overwhelmed by the medicinal power of the Qirong Tongtian Chrysanthemum."

After taking the Qi Rong Tong Tian Ju, Qi Dao could clearly feel the medicinal power of the Qi Rong Tong Tian Ju rampaging through his body, resisting his body which had been modified by the Lie Huo Xing Jiao Shu and Ba Jiao Xuan Bing Cao.

It's important to know that the inside of the body is one of the most vulnerable parts of the human body.

If Qi Dao hadn't taken whale glue to strengthen his physique since childhood, and if he hadn't absorbed more than 70% of the medicinal effects of the two immortal herbs, the Fiery Apricot and the Eight-Cornered Mystic Ice Grass, he might not have been able to survive this ordeal unscathed.

That's why Qi Dao finally understood.

Why did Tang San in the original novel not consume any other immortal herbs besides the Fiery Apricot Blossom, the Eight-Cornered Mysterious Ice Grass, and the Autumn Dew of Longing?

It's not that I don't want to, it's that I don't dare!

Dugu Bo laughed and said, "No matter what, as long as you're alright, that's good. I'll take you to the Star Dou Great Forest to hunt for spirit rings in a couple of days."

Qi Dao smiled and nodded, saying, "Then I'll have to trouble you, senior."

I wonder if I can find that 20,000-year-old dark gold bear in the Star Dou Great Forest this time.

Qi Dao felt that it was perfect as his fourth spirit ring.
