Douluo: The martial soul Nine-headed Xiangliu swallows the sky and devours the earth!

Chapter 185 Changes Brought About by Top-Grade Spirit Herbs

After all, in the future, no one wants to have three incredibly powerful Limit Douluos appear on their head. Exceptional talent is certainly acceptable, but being too overpowered is definitely not good.

Unless one's own power is strong enough to protect such an extremely powerful Soul Master, the Spirit Hall obviously has such an ability, but it is clear that...

Their Xuanling Pill Sect certainly doesn't possess this capability. If it were just Dugu Yao, they could barely manage to prevent assassination attempts, but with three people involved, they definitely couldn't protect them all.

Therefore, all they could do was to conceal the talents of Dugu Yao, Dugu Yan, and Ye Lingling as much as possible before they fully matured.

Once you become a powerful Title Douluo, there's no need to hide it anymore. It's very difficult to assassinate a powerful Title Douluo; if you can't beat them, you can run away.

For a Title Douluo who wants to escape, even if facing an opponent of the same level, stopping him is extremely difficult. Therefore, what they can do for now is to play it safe.

Once Dugu Yao and the others have fully matured, it won't be too long—less than ten years at the shortest, and no more than twenty years at the longest—the three of them will be able to become independent Soul Masters.

After all, their talent is undeniable. Not to mention Dugu Yao, just look at Dugu Yan and Ye Lingling. At their current age, reaching the Soul King level is simply beyond imagination.

In any case, Dugu Bo had never heard of, nor had he seen in any materials, anyone who could reach the level of Soul King or Soul Emperor at this age.

"If we wait until all three of them grow up, just how powerful will our Xuanling Pill Sect become?" Ye Lingyu said with a smile as she glanced at the three of them.

It will be a certainty that they will surpass the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School. They may still have some gaps in terms of foundation, but as long as they have three extremely powerful Title Douluos.

This difference in cultural background is actually not a big deal.

"It might be far beyond our imagination?" Dugu Xiao said, becoming increasingly expectant, eagerly anticipating the day when Dugu Yao and the other two would become Title Douluos.

In the following days, because Dugu Yao's soul power level increased by 1 level, Dugu Yan and Ye Lingling became more serious about their cultivation. Of course, only Ye Lingling was truly serious.

Dugu Yan, on the other hand, was helpless. To prevent Ye Lingling from surpassing him in the future, he could only follow Ye Lingling into the competitive arena, which troubled him greatly, as she cultivated very diligently.

She didn't want to work so hard that she forgot to eat and sleep, but unfortunately, Ye Lingling was right next to her. If she didn't work even harder, Ye Lingling would really surpass her, and that would be a real joke!
So she had to keep up with the competition. Ye Lingling was proactive, while she was passive. After all, she had a determined younger sister named Lingling next to her.
Sometimes she really wanted to say, we don't need to be so competitive. With their current soul power level, they are already outstanding. Putting aside Dugu Yao, they are simply monsters among monsters!

At their age, reaching the Soul King level is simply unbelievable, but the pressure from the earnest Lingling forces Dugu Yan to become even more serious!

Today was the day they were to report to the Heaven Dou Royal Academy. In the morning, Dugu Yao, Dugu Yan, and Ye Lingling boarded a carriage and set off for the Heaven Dou Academy.

Although they are students of the Heaven Dou Academy, in truth, they have never stayed at the Heaven Dou Royal Academy for very long. Only Dugu Yao and Dugu Yan stayed there for a period of time.

"It's been a long time, Heaven Dou Royal Academy!" Dugu Yan said with emotion as she stepped through the gates of Heaven Dou Royal Academy, followed by Dugu Yao and Ye Lingling. "Long time no see? If Sister Yan Yan likes Heaven Dou Academy, you can stay here at Heaven Dou Royal Academy," Ye Lingling said with a grin. Actually, she really wanted to experience life at the academy.

"It's only been two weeks." Dugu Yao said irritably, looking at Dugu Yan who was sighing there. They hadn't come last week because of Xue Qinghe's investiture ceremony.

"So it's not that long ago," Dugu Yan said, shaking her head. Staying at the school was definitely out of the question; life at the Heavenly Dou Royal Academy was actually quite boring.

Just then, as they entered the Heavenly Dou Royal Academy, Yu Tianheng arrived at the entrance of the academy in a carriage. This time, Yu Tianheng did not have a stern face when he met them.

Instead, he showed a friendly smile. Although he didn't go up to greet her, things weren't as tense as before. These changes all stemmed from that top-grade spiritual herb.

Since the banquet ended, the changes in the second son of Emperor Xueye after consuming the top-grade spiritual herbs were obviously enormous, which could not be kept secret. Therefore, in the days following the banquet,

Representatives from various factions flocked to the Xuanling Pill Sect, hoping to purchase a top-grade spiritual herb. Although they knew it was extremely rare, they hoped that the few herbs in Dugu Bo's herb garden might be suitable for them.

They would pay any price, even if it meant it. The Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School even sent people to inquire, but they didn't have high hopes; they were just asking around.

Are there any suitable Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda Martial Souls for them? They're just top-grade spiritual herbs.

After the representatives of various forces arrived at the Xuanling Pill Sect, the final result was obvious: they did not get what they wanted. Among them were people from the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Sect.

Because of this incident, Yu Tianheng's attitude towards Dugu Yao and the others has clearly changed. Just because there are no top-grade spiritual herbs suitable for their Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan now does not mean there won't be in the future.

However, if Dugu Yao and the others knew what Yu Tianheng was thinking at this moment, they could only say, "Even if you had it, you wouldn't give it to the people of your Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan. Don't even think about it."

Although Yu Tianheng's attitude towards Dugu Yao and the others had changed significantly, they didn't even have a normal conversation because of past events, and he strode towards the registration area.

Dugu Yan looked at Yu Tianheng, who had walked in front of them, with a strange expression and said in surprise, "What's wrong with this guy today? When he saw us, his smile was sinister. Could he be up to no good with us?"

After all, if Yu Tianheng were to change his attitude towards them, it would be like a weasel paying respects to a chicken, or the sun rising in the west. Therefore, they were wary of this.

Dugu Yao said calmly, "It's probably because of the top-grade spiritual herbs. Among the people who came to our Xuanling Pill Sect to inquire about spiritual herbs, there were people from the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Sect."

Upon hearing this, Dugu Yan and Ye Lingling suddenly realized that this was the case. But upon closer reflection, it seemed to make sense. It was definitely because of the top-grade spiritual herb. Although the improvement of a soul master by this top-grade spiritual herb was limited, it was still quite considerable.

(I was drinking with friends tonight, and it got a bit late, so I'll just post a separate update for now.)
