Douluo Continent: My Martial Soul is the Ten Ferocious Heavenly Horned Ant

At the same time, the residual medicinal power of the Yin-Yang Xuanlong Pill can remain in the body for a long time, enhancing one's potential.

And Gu Ling did not disappoint the Yin Yang Xuanlong Pill. Seven years later, he was promoted to Dou Zun and was known as the Wind Venerable.

Gu Ling's advancement to Dou Zun was not due to exceptional talent, but rather to the Yin Yang Xuan Long Pill refined by Yao Chen, which was a gift from Yao Chen to Gu Ling.

Of course.

Gu Ling did not fail to repay Yao Chen. He not only changed his name for Yao Chen, but also specially crafted a ring of unknown meaning for him.

obviously.

Gu Ling is a weapon refiner. Although weapon refiners are not as noble and peerless as alchemists, their status is not low. For example, spatial rings like storage rings are made by weapon refiners.

Actually, the meaning of this ring is unclear.

It's the ring that was left behind by Xiao Yan's mother.

This ring is from many years ago.

Because every so often, the space of light and shadow left behind by the ancient emperor Tuoshe would open. At that time, Gu Ling, who was still called Feng Xian, followed Yao Chen into it like a shadow and obtained a set of weapon refining techniques inside.

With the help of the refining materials that Yao Chen obtained in the space, the progress was rapid. For reasons unknown, she crafted a soul-warming and spirit-nourishing ring for Yao Chen. Wearing it for a long time would enhance his soul perception ability.

It was because of this ring that could nourish the soul that Yao Chen was betrayed by his disciple Han Feng and ambushed by the Soul Palace's Dou Zun, yet he still managed to preserve his soul. He wouldn't have been destroyed by this treacherous disciple who murdered his master.

.........

"You really are incorrigible. You murdered your master and became a traitor, yet you still protect him. Oh, right, I forgot to ask, who is that young man to you?"

Gu Ling was angry at his lack of ambition and saddened by his misfortune, but as he spoke, he seemed to remember something. It seemed that Xiao Yan, who had sent him the message, had a very special relationship with Yao Chen.

The Battle Through the Heavens is vast, covering an area several times the size of Earth. The Douluo Continent is not large either, because of the space wormholes; it only takes half a month to travel from the Jiama Empire to the Central Plains.

In this world, those at the Dou Zun level and above can skillfully utilize spatial power, and Dou Sheng can even create extra-dimensional spaces and move their entire family to another space.

Therefore, the Battle Through the Heavens is almost entirely filled with wormholes. As long as you have money, no matter how far apart you are, arriving is only a matter of time. There is no helplessness of being separated by the ends of the earth.

"Gu Ling, don't be angry after I told you!" Yao Chen whispered.

"Speak," Gu Ling said firmly.

"His name is Xiao Yan, my newly accepted disciple," Yao Chen explained.

These words were spoken.

Gu Ling immediately slapped his forehead, his face full of black lines. After a long while, he finally spoke in a low voice: "People say that once bitten by a snake, you are afraid of a well rope for ten years. But you are the opposite. You only remember the food and not the punishment. It hasn't been long since Han Feng's incident, and you have already taken on another little apprentice. Seriously, old bones, will you die if you don't become a teacher?"

He had heard of some people who liked to preach.

But I never expected that Yao Chen would have this bad habit.

A lesson from the past, a teacher of the future.

But some people just don't learn their lesson. Aren't they afraid of raising another disciple who murders his master?

"This...you're exaggerating. I believe Xiao Yan isn't that kind of person." Yao Chen said somewhat awkwardly.

"That's what you told me when you took Han Feng in," Gu Ling sneered.

..........

the other side.

After being kicked out, Xiao Yan went straight to the venue of the Alchemist Conference, found a chair in the audience, sat down, gently picked up the teacup next to him, and took a small sip.

He didn't like joining in the fun with acquaintances, so he didn't follow the Xiao family's main group. Most importantly, he liked the feeling of being free and independent on his own.

However, I watched it for most of the day.

Xiao Yan realized he didn't understand how the Alchemist Tournament was conducted, so he nudged the middle-aged man sitting next to him, hoping to get an answer from the stranger.

"Brother, I'd like to ask, what exactly is the format of this Alchemist Tournament? Is it a lottery competition, or something else?"

Faced with Xiao Yan's harassment, the middle-aged man became somewhat impatient and frowned, saying, "There are so many contestants participating in the Alchemist Conference. If we rely on drawing lots to decide them one by one, how long would that take?"

"Therefore, all alchemists participating in the Alchemist Conference will compete simultaneously on a huge platform, and the conditions for the competition will gradually become more stringent."

"At that time, it will be like sifting sand through a sieve, quickly weeding out the unqualified ones. The alchemists who remain will be the best of the best. Whoever stands out among these best will be the final winner."

have to say.

Although the middle-aged man sounded slightly annoyed, he still answered Xiao Yan's question seriously.

"Oh……"

Xiao Yan nodded thoughtfully, recalling the spectacular scene of hundreds or even thousands of alchemists lighting fires and refining medicine on a single platform. Just thinking about it made him feel quite daunted.

.......

If things were calm and peaceful on Xiao Yan's side, then Dong Qing's side was in turmoil.

He finally managed to get rid of Yaoyue, that little troublemaker, and deal with Xiao Xun'er, Xiao Yu, and Yaoye, who was late because she was too tired from the job change.

Just as Dong Qing breathed a sigh of relief, Yun Yun arrived uninvited with Nalan Yanran, blocking his way, and she seemed rather unapproachable.

"Dongqing, can we sit down and have a chat?"

Yun Yun's tone was calm and even, as ethereal as the wind, making it impossible to fathom her meaning. She was like a gust of wind; if you weren't careful, you could disappear without a trace.

"No time," Dong Qing replied without hesitation.

I'm not interested in picking up girls today.

You should wait until I go to the bar tomorrow.

To tell the truth.

Soothing a woman is a skill, and Dong Qing was feeling a bit exhausted. Usually, when he saw Yun Yun, he would exchange a few flirtatious words, but now he really had no interest in chatting with her.

"That's not up to you!"

Yunyun grabbed Dongqing by the collar and dragged him into a nearby room.

When closing the door.

Yun Yun glanced at Nalan Yanran behind her and said gently, "Yanran, guard the door and don't let anyone else disturb us."

"Teacher, you..."

Before Nalan Yanran could finish speaking, Yun Yun closed the door.

Just as she was inwardly complaining about her teacher Yun Yun eating alone.

Hurried footsteps approached, and a gentle and refined middle-aged man ran over. When he saw Nalan Yanran, his eyes lit up, and he quickly ran over.

"Yanran, where is the sect leader?"

The middle-aged man was an honorary elder of the Yunlan Sect, a sixth-grade alchemist who had risen through the ranks by accumulating medicinal herbs.

Dan Wang Gu He, with the cultivation of a Dou Wang, loves Yun Yun deeply and cannot bear to see any other man near her.

This is not.

He followed the scent, not because he had been stalking Yun Yun, but because at the Alchemist Conference, Dong Qing often flirted with Yun Yun, and he had to protect his beloved goddess.

"The teacher and he are inside."

Nalan Yanran raised her chin and pointed to the room next door.

"Him? Who is he?" Dan Wang Guhe asked with a worried look.

“Dong Qing, a guest elder of the Xiao family, is a judge at this year’s Alchemist Conference,” Nalan Yanran answered honestly.

"Dongqing? Yanran, you're saying the sect leader is in the same room with him now?" Danwang Guhe's face turned green.

"Is there a problem?" Nalan Yanran asked, puzzled.

In her eyes.

Dong Qing was like a warm and sunny older brother. She didn't think there was anything wrong with her teacher Yun Yun being with him. He was definitely much better than the uncle in front of her.

“He has serious problems. He’s a bad person, he’s fickle. The sect leader is pure and virtuous, how could she share a room with someone like that?” Dan Wang Guhe was extremely anxious.

After saying that.

He tried to push open the door to stop his dream goddess from falling into the mouth of the thief Dong Qing, but was stopped by Nalan Yanran who was guarding the door.

Logically speaking, with his Dou Wang cultivation level, forcing his way in would only be a matter of a thought, but because Yun Yun was there, only one Dou Zhe was needed to stop him.

This Dou Zhe is Nalan Yanran. She is unaware that Xiao Yan, whom she once looked down upon, has already recovered to the level of Dou Zhe after only a few months.

Even if she found out, it wasn't a big deal. Her engagement with Xiao Yan was peacefully dissolved in private.

She didn't harm Xiao Yan and Xiao Zhan, nor did she humiliate them, so naturally, they didn't have the chance to fulfill their three-year promise.

Without the three-year agreement, even if Xiao Yan's talent is strong, Nalan Yanran might think she was blind, but she wouldn't be in a hurry.

Yun Yun would not go to the Monster Mountain Range alone to steal the Purple Spirit Crystal of the King-level Rank 6 Purple Crystal Winged Lion King in order to help her disciple Nalan Yanran improve her strength.

However, Yun Yun has now drawn her sword.

The sword was placed against Dongqing's neck.

"Dongqing, I only have one disciple. You are fickle and amorous. You have one woman after another around you. You don't even want to let go of me, the sect leader of Yunlan Sect. But I will not allow you to mess around with Yanran."

"You scoundrel, you sentimental scum, do you think I don't know what you're thinking? Master and disciple in perfect harmony? Let me tell you, that's absolutely impossible. I advise you to give up on that idea as soon as possible."

Yun Yun had already sensed Dan Wang Guhe outside the room, but she didn't have time to pay attention to it. All she wanted to do now was to get Dong Qing to dispel Nalan Yanran's idea.

Dong Qing blinked, and a sentence popped into his mind.

"At that time, the sword was only 0.01 centimeters away from my throat, but a quarter of an incense stick later, the sword's owner would fall completely in love with me because I decided to tell a lie. Although I have told countless lies in my life, I think this one is the most perfect."

Faced with Yun Yun's threat of drawing her sword.

Dong Qing stepped forward without hesitation, startling Yun Yun into taking a step back.

After realizing what had happened...

Yun Yun said angrily, "Dong Qing, if you take another half step forward, I will really kill you. Don't think that just because you have Ice Emperor Hai Bodong protecting you, I won't dare to touch you. I'm not afraid of him, and the Yunlan Sect is not afraid of the Mittel family either."

Her threats had no effect.

"Cough cough cough..."

Dong Qing coughed a few times, preparing to deliver a greasy message.

"Kill me, kill me, you should do it, and I should die too. I don't blame you for killing me, I only blame myself. There was once a sincere love placed in front of me, but I didn't cherish it. Only when I lost it did I regret it."
