Chapter 37 Five Years in a Hurry, Growth! Control of Soul Power
Five years have passed in a flash.
Buzz~
At the edge of the Yin-Yang Well, Dugu Bo's soul power finally broke through to level 95, stirring up a wave of soul power fluctuations.
"Teacher, congratulations on your breakthrough in soul power!"
Feng Xiaotian is 17 years old this year. He is handsome and dashing, and his short silver hair makes him look even more heroic.
"Hahaha~~" Dugu Bo suppressed his soul power fluctuations and laughed heartily.
Back then, six months after consuming the Seven Deadly Flowers of Azure Phosphorus, I broke through to level 94. Now, four and a half years later, I have finally made another step forward! I have broken through to level 95!
Breaking through to the first level of soul power in four and a half years is not a slow rate of soul power increase for a titled Douluo.
Feeling the abundant soul power within his body, Dugu Bo gently touched the Ruyi Treasure Pouch at his waist and chuckled, "To break through to level 96 again... I'm afraid it will be very difficult! It seems that if I want to break through in a short time, I can only rely on external aids!"
The Ruyi Treasure Pouch contains a Crystal Blood Dragon Ginseng, which was traded for two million Gold Soul Coins!
The transaction went so smoothly that Dugu Bo didn't even have a chance to lose his temper. This made recruiting Yang Wudi of the Po clan to refine pills much easier as well.
"Xiao Feng, where are Lin'er and Yan'er?"
"This…" Feng Xiaotian scratched his head awkwardly.
Seeing this, Dugu Bo snorted, "These two little rascals have been slacking off again!"
Dugu Yan is only thirteen years old this year, an age when she loves to play. She is spoiled rotten by Dugu Bo, Dugu Lin, Feng Xiaotian, and Qian Renxue, and has no interest in cultivating at all.
When Dugu Bo returned to Tiandou City and found Dugu Yan, she was shopping with Ye Lingling, accompanied by Dugu Lin, who was 1.8 meters tall.
Five years have passed, and the three of them have changed a lot!
Dugu Yan has grown into the beautiful snake woman she should be, while Ye Lingling has become much more aloof, possessing the temperament of an ice queen.
Dugu Lin, who is only eleven years old this year, is already 1.85 meters tall, more than ten centimeters taller than Ye Lingling.
In another two years, Dugu Lin is confident that his height will exceed 1.95 meters!
At 1.95 meters tall, he's considered quite tall in a fantasy world like Douluo Continent.
"Teacher…" Feng Xiaotian called out weakly, and explained in a low voice, "Teacher, that Love-Sickness Heartbreak Red Immortal Grass requires sincere love to be picked! Dugu Lin wanted to give this immortal grass to Ye Lingling, so he spent time cultivating feelings for Ye Lingling."
"Hmph~ I know!" Dugu Bo walked over with a dark face.
Suddenly, Dugu Yan and Dugu Lin felt the temperature drop several degrees, shivered, and turned around stiffly.
"Grandpa! You're finally out of seclusion!"
When Dugu Yan saw her grandfather's dark face, she quickly changed her strategy and rushed over to give him a hug.
Then... Dugu Bo couldn't bear to scold his granddaughter, so he turned to his grandson and scolded, "Lin'er, your sister is being unreasonable, are you going to follow her in her nonsense? Go back to your cultivation now!"
Dugu Lin: "..."
Dugu Bo maintained his stern face: "What are you looking at? Aren't you going back to your cultivation?"
"Oh~"
Faced with his granddaughter's obsession, Dugu Lin no longer wanted to argue. He was used to it, resigned himself to his fate, and was exhausted. He decided to just let it all end.
So, Dugu Lin turned around helplessly, reached out and ruffled Ye Lingling's hair, and said with a warm smile, "Lingling, my grandfather has come out of seclusion. I need to go on a long trip to obtain a soul ring during this time. I will come to play with you again when I come back."
"Mmm." Ye Lingling blushed slightly as her hair was ruffled in public and gave a soft "Mmm."
Dugu Yan waved and said, "Lingling, I'm going back with Grandpa and the others too. See you at school in a few days after school starts."
See you at school.
After saying goodbye to Ye Lingling, the group returned to the Dugu residence.
Dugu Bo squinted and said, "Lin'er, in recent years, your grandfather has been busy with cultivation and research on alchemy, and has neglected to discipline you! Look at your current soul power, it's only level forty!"
Beside him, Feng Xiaotian's lips twitched, thinking to himself, "Teacher, don't you realize Dugu Lin is only 11 years old this year?"
Dugu Lin said proudly, "Level 40, that's quite a lot!"
In five years, Dugu Lin's soul power increased from level 23 after he acquired his soul ring to level 40. After deducting the two levels of soul power he gained from his third soul ring, he only increased his soul power by 15 levels in five years through hard work.
Although his soul power increased significantly, level 15 was still a bit low for Dugu Lin, who had consumed two immortal herbs.
Dugu Bo said with exasperation, "Look at yourself, you've only increased your soul power by fifteen levels in five years! And look at Xiao Feng, he's already a level fifty-three Soul King!"
Feng Xiaotian smiled, as if being praised was just a normal thing.
Over the past five years, he first spent a year breaking through to level 28 in soul power, and then consumed a massive amount of whale glue to break through to level 30 in a short period of time, obtaining a soul ring with a maximum lifespan of 7,000 years!
After obtaining his third soul ring, he consumed a rare herb: the Qirong Tongtian Chrysanthemum!
In the following years, Feng Xiaotian felt that cultivation was as easy as drinking water, and his soul power increased rapidly. It was too easy!
Dugu Lin laughed and said, "Grandpa, you can't just look at these things. You should also look at my control over soul power and my proficiency in using soul rings and soul skills! Only a comprehensive evaluation will be fair!"
Dugu Lin would never admit to slacking off in his cultivation! Because he truly wasn't lazy; at most, he would slack off for a day or two each month to cultivate his relationship with Ye Lingling.
In recent years, Dugu Lin has indeed put a lot of effort into not revealing his soul power level and soul ring configuration.
First, he concealed his soul power level, allowing him to display any level of soul power he wanted, without even a titled Douluo being able to detect it! It almost developed the "Concealing Breath Technique," which only exists in other worlds.
In addition, Dugu Lin was able to use his soul skills directly without revealing his soul rings.
This demonstrates Dugu Lin's exceptional control over his own soul power!
Speaking of this, Dugu Bo opened his mouth, then sighed helplessly in his heart.
It was Dugu Bo's requirement that his soul power cultivation and soul ring configuration not be revealed to outsiders. Now his grandson, Dugu Lin, has truly kept this in mind, but this has slowed down his soul power cultivation. Who can he blame for that?
On the side.
Dugu Yan dared not speak. In five years, her soul power had only increased from level 32 to level 45! That was far less than Dugu Lin's increase.
Seeing his beloved girl with her head down, too afraid to speak, Feng Xiaotian immediately advised, "Teacher, this isn't the fault of Senior Sister and her brother. Soul Masters cultivate very slowly before their bodies are fully developed. The best golden period for cultivation is between the ages of 12 and 20! I believe that in the next few years, their soul power will definitely advance by leaps and bounds!"
The Soul Master is young, so their cultivation speed is indeed a bit slow. However, it won't be too much slower.
Dugu Bo waved his hand and said unhappily, "Lin'er, after you return with your fourth soul ring, Grandpa won't have much to do, and Grandpa will keep an eye on your cultivation!"
"Alright!" Dugu Lin smiled, then asked, "By the way, Grandpa, when are we setting off to hunt for the fourth soul ring?"
Upon hearing this, Dugu Bo put aside his disciplining intentions and said to Feng Xiaotian, "Xiaotian, your teacher and Lin'er are going to obtain a soul ring. During the days your teacher is away, please take good care of Yan'er for me."
"Yes, teacher, don't worry," Feng Xiaotian assured him, patting his chest.
"Grandpa... please be careful when you go out." Dugu Yan knew that her grandfather and younger brother's purpose in going out was not simply to hunt for the fourth spirit ring, and she also knew that this trip might be dangerous!
