Douluo: Wuhun Longyuan Sword, I have become the scabbard

Chapter 196 Title Douluo, Qian Renxue
Sunset Forest.

Ding Quan's aura suddenly surged.

I've reached level 88. It seems that coming to the Ice and Fire Yin-Yang Well for cultivation was the right decision. There shouldn't be a better place to cultivate on this continent.

The rapid increase in soul power was largely thanks to the resources Ning Rongrong brought back from the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School. As a sect that has existed for countless years, the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School has collected a great deal of rare medicinal herbs and resources needed for cultivation.

While Ning Rongrong didn't say she would take everything, she did take quite a lot that was useful for Ding Quan and the others' cultivation.

If it were normal cultivation, it would probably take several years to reach level 90, but now, in this Yin-Yang Well of Ice and Fire, it shouldn't take long.

With one step, Ding Quan's figure disappeared from the spot and then arrived at a dwelling built by a few people outside the Ice and Fire Yin-Yang Well.

The ice and fire energy at the Yin-Yang Well is too strong; even titled Douluo cannot stay there for long. Ning Rongrong and Zhu Zhuqing cannot stay there for long either, so they often cultivate here.

"You broke through so quickly?"

Ding Quan wasn't surprised by Ling Jian's sudden appearance. During this time, Ding Quan had become more adept at using spatial power. While he couldn't achieve teleportation, it was very close.
"Ah."

"The cultivation speed of a dual-soul core with complementary Yin and Yang is much faster than that of a single-soul core." Ling's current soul power improvement speed is a bit slower than Ding Quan's.

"It's natural."

"With my current mental strength, I might be able to construct a dual-soul core."

"Let's wait until you break through to the Title Douluo level before trying. The energy of the dual soul cores is too powerful, and your soul bones are not fully equipped yet, so your body strength cannot withstand it." Ding Quan shook his head at Ling. Back in the Sun Moon Continent, he hunted some 100,000-year soul beasts and obtained several 100,000-year soul bones, but these soul bones were not suitable for Ling.

Ling is currently missing his right arm bone and head soul bone. He plans to obtain the head soul bone from a soul beast when he acquires his ninth soul ring, while he can search for the right arm soul bone in the far north.

Although Ling possesses the torso bones of the 400,000-year-old Ice Emperor, for safety's sake, it would be best to wait until he becomes a Title Douluo before attempting to replenish all his soul bones.

"I know."

"They haven't returned yet?"

"You broke through too quickly; they should be back in a while."

Because Ding Quan was about to break through, the others withdrew from the Ice and Fire Yin-Yang Well to avoid disturbing him, leaving only Ling here to protect him. The others should have gone to the Heavenly Dou Imperial City to go shopping and see if they could buy some supplies.

During this time, the group had been cultivating and planned to relax a bit.

"Quan, news of our presence in Sunset Forest has already spread, could it be..."

"We should be fine. With our strength, no one should dare to provoke us. Besides, we can't find a more suitable place to cultivate here."

Ding Quan didn't pay any attention to what he heard. Now his soul power had reached level 88, and his true strength had reached the level of a peak Douluo.

While Ling Shili is currently weaker than himself, his true strength is definitely above level 95. Wei'er is also at this level, and Shui Bing'er is weaker but not much different.

With their current strength, they cannot be threatened without the intervention of several peak Douluo.

The only force that can threaten him now is the Spirit Hall, and his relationship with the Spirit Hall is not bad, so the people of the Spirit Hall will not easily attack him.

"Right."

Ling naturally knew that cultivating in the Yin-Yang Well of Ice and Fire was the best choice.

Just as the two were talking, a figure flew over from a distance.

“Senior Dugu!” Ding Quan looked at the person dressed in emerald green, who was none other than the original owner of the Ice and Fire Yin-Yang Eye, the Poison Douluo Dugu Bo.

"I saw that strange phenomenon as soon as I returned. It has disappeared now, so you must have broken through."

Dugu Bo looked at Ding Quan with a heavy expression. He was increasingly unable to understand this man's strength. In addition, the women who followed Ding Quan were also making a great commotion in their cultivation. As expected of beings who had condensed their soul cores at the Soul Saint stage.

The scene that just occurred, affecting the primordial energy of heaven and earth, must have been caused by Ding Quan, and only he could have accomplished such a feat.

"Senior seems a little nervous, is something the matter?"

"I can't hide it from you, I went to Wuhun City recently."

"Martial Spirit City?"

"Just taught a dead rival a lesson, but it's a pity I didn't get to enjoy it enough." Dugu Bo said, a grin spreading across his face, clearly thinking of something good.

bitter rivals?
Seeing Dugu Bo's appearance, Ding Quan understood. It seemed that Dugu Bo was going to find Ju Douluo Yue Guan.

Dugu Bo's current soul power level has reached level 95, the same level as Chrysanthemum Douluo Yue Guan.

Dugu Bo was able to leave Chrysanthemum Douluo's clutches when he reached level 91. Previously, as a Title Douluo, his unit of measurement was to suppress the poison of his own martial soul.

At this moment, Dugu Bo had condensed his soul core and was no longer affected by the Jade Phosphorous Serpent's venom. In addition, his strength had reached level 95. Chrysanthemum Douluo might not be a match for Dugu Bo now. Ding Quan knew very well that Dugu Bo had several good soul bones, among which the head soul bone should be over 60,000 years old. He obtained it when he absorbed his eighth soul ring, while Chrysanthemum Douluo did not have a single soul bone.

Ding Quan didn't expect that Dugu Bo would dare to go to the Spirit Hall to cause trouble for Chrysanthemum Douluo. But this also shows that Dugu Bo and the Spirit Hall don't have much hatred between them. That's right, if the Spirit Hall really wanted to take action against Dugu Bo, Dugu Bo wouldn't have any power to resist.

It's normal that he didn't get to the top. Chrysanthemum Douluo is no match for Dugu Bo now, but Chrysanthemum Douluo has teammates, and teammates with a Martial Soul Fusion Skill.

Ghost Douluo is also in Wuhun City. If he finds that Chrysanthemum Douluo is no match for him, he will not ignore it.

"I also discovered something big during my trip to the Spirit Hall, and I need to tell you about it." Dugu Bo smiled for a moment, then his expression turned serious.

"Something big?" Ding Quan looked at Dugu Bo and then at Ling beside him. Was it related to Ling?

"The six-winged angel soul master who fought you in this Sunset Forest a year ago is now at the ninth ring!" Dugu Bo said, a look of lingering fear flashing across his face.

"A six-winged angel Soul Master, nine rings?!"

Ling was very surprised. If she remembered correctly, a year ago, Ding Quan had made a deal with her, and the deal involved a 100,000-year-old soul bone.

This 100,000-year-old soul bone was obtained when she acquired her eighth soul ring.

So, she had only just been promoted to Soul Douluo a little over a year ago, but now she has actually become a nine-ring Title Douluo.

That 100,000-year soul ring couldn't provide her with much soul power. She only increased her soul power by ten levels in a little over a year, and she was still at the Soul Douluo stage!

With such a cultivation speed, Ling looked at Ding Quan, who was deep in thought. No wonder Ding Quan had squandered a lot of resources recently, just to increase his cultivation speed.

“That’s right! And her ninth spirit ring is red. I felt completely powerless to resist when I stood in front of her.”

"Yeah."

It seems Dugu Bo has encountered Qian Renxue; his lingering fear is undeniable.

It's not surprising that Qian Renxue's ninth spirit ring is red. Although there are very few records of spirit beasts that have existed for 100,000 years on the continent, the Spirit Hall may have quite a few.

Furthermore, Qian Renxue absorbed her eighth 100,000-year spirit ring over a year ago, and the Spirit Hall has likely been searching for other 100,000-year spirit beasts ever since. A year ago, Chrysanthemum Douluo and Ghost Douluo appeared in the far north, probably to check if the Frozen Forest contained any 100,000-year spirit beasts. There should also be unknown 100,000-year spirit beasts on the Douluo Continent.

“She’s very strong! Perhaps…” Dugu Bo glanced at Ling, then said nothing more.

"Oh?"

Dugu Bo believed he might not be a match for Qian Renxue, and Ling Jian only replied with a single word.

As the final level of a Soul Master's cultivation, the Title Douluo's power increase is unmatched by the previous Soul Rings.

Ling, who had fought Qian Renxue a year ago, knew her strength. Qian Renxue, a Soul Douluo, was quite powerful, and now that she had been promoted to Title Douluo, her strength had increased dramatically.

It's indeed difficult to assess the strength of a Title Douluo who possesses two red spirit rings.

Even now, Contra himself might not be a match for her.

Ling's eyes narrowed, especially since Qian Renxue had obtained the divine inheritance and might have already undergone the divine test.

Ling Ke had heard Quan say that passing the Divine Trial would grant a divine reward that greatly boosted one's strength. This was likely the reason why Qian Renxue had reached the ninth ring in just over a year.

She is very strong, but I have now cultivated to the level of a high-level Soul Douluo, and my strength may not be weaker than hers.

"Also, it seems she's looking for you."

"Looking for us?"

"She now knows you're in Sunset Forest."

"Thank you, senior, for informing me."

"If she comes, you'd better teach her a lesson."

Ding Quan noticed that Dugu Bo's expression was rather unpleasant, but that didn't matter. News of his presence in the Sunset Forest had already spread, and the Spirit Hall should have known about it long ago.

It seems that Dugu Bo has suffered a considerable loss at Qian Renxue's hands.

Having already broken through to the Title Douluo level and possessing two 100,000-year soul rings, Qian Renxue's strength is far beyond what Dugu Bo can currently match, even though he is now a level 95 Super Douluo.

Ding Quan knew that there were six inherited soul bones in the Spirit Hall.

Now that Qian Renxue has broken through to the Title Douluo realm, she must have absorbed all six soul bones.

Once all six soul bones are absorbed, they will become existences lasting for 100,000 years.

He possesses six 100,000-year-old soul bones and two 100,000-year-old soul rings, and is also a god-level martial soul, so his strength cannot be judged by ordinary standards.

In particular, these six soul bones should be able to form a soul bone set, which would be a divine set of equipment.

“That’s easy to say.” Ling Wenyan’s aura flashed by.

"That's good." Dugu Bo felt the aura released by Ling, and a light flashed in his eyes.

Ding Quan looked at Ling, whose soul power was now surging, and shook his head. A year ago, Ling and Qian Renxue fought to a draw. Now it seems that not only does Qian Renxue want to have another match, but Ling also wants to try again.

Is it Qian Renxue, a titled Douluo?
Ding Quan also wanted to know what level of strength she had reached.

Dugu Bo hurriedly flew away into the distance. Now that Dugu Bo's cultivation level was at level 95, he had reached a bottleneck. The Ice and Fire Yin-Yang Eye was no longer of much use to him. Therefore, after Ding Quan and the others arrived here, he rarely returned.

Judging from the direction Dugu Bo left, he must have gone to find his granddaughter, Dugu Yan.

After Dugu Bo left, Ling went directly to the Ice and Fire Yin-Yang Well and then jumped into the Ice and Fire Spring.

Ling's cultivation speed in the Ice and Fire Yin-Yang Well was the fastest among them; for her, this place was practically a natural, simulated cultivation ground.

During this period of cultivation, Ling's physical strength has increased again, which is why she came up with the idea of ​​building a dual soul core.

Seeing this, Ding Quan took out a book from his storage soul tool and started reading it. At the same time, he began practicing sword techniques in his spiritual sea.

After learning that Ding Quan planned to create a sword technique, the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School also gave Ding Quan the sword techniques they had collected. Because Chen Xin had joined the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School very early on, the school had collected quite a few sword techniques.

What Ding Quan is looking at now are these sword techniques. Although these sword techniques are not as powerful as the Seven Kill Sword Technique, they have many merits.

Sword intent surged within Ding Quan, and the Dragon Abyss Sword appeared. Then, a vast killing intent arose on the Dragon Abyss Sword. This was not the effect of Ding Quan's Killing God Domain, but pure sword energy.

Clearly, Ding Quan had already infused his killing intent into his sword intent.

Wuhun City!
Temple of Angels.

Nine spirit rings—two yellow, two purple, three black, and two red—slowly rotated on the figure with three pairs of wings behind it.

The rich golden light tinted all nine spirit rings with a layer of gold, making the first few spirit rings look less clear.

A long sword was held in Qian Renxue's hand, and golden sword light emanated from it.

Opposite Qian Renxue, a person with the same martial soul as Qian Renxue also held a long sword. This person also had nine soul rings, but the configuration of the soul rings was quite strange.

Eight black, one red!
Although it only has one red spirit ring, the previous eight spirit rings are all black.

Aside from having twin martial souls, there is no way to directly absorb a ten-thousand-year soul ring.

However, there is one exception: passing the divine test.

The person before me, possessing nine soul rings—eight black and one red—is none other than Qian Daoliu, the High Priest of the Angel God, who obtained and passed the Eight Trials of the Angels and is known as the invincible one in the sky.

"Xue'er, your current strength is not much different from that of the Grand Master, and even Qianjun may not be your match."

Qian Daoliu withdrew his soul power. Through their previous exchange, he had already ascertained Qian Renxue's current strength.

The titled Douluo with two red spirit rings was stronger than Qian Daoliu had expected. Such strength was something that Qian Daoliu himself could not match when he first broke through to the titled Douluo level.

"The strength to offer sacrifices? That's enough!"

The enshrined members of the Spirit Hall are all at least level 96, with Thousand Jun Douluo being at level 96.

Qian Renxue, who has now obtained her ninth soul ring, is only at level ninety-one in soul power, and is not far from level ninety-two.

The energy within a 100,000-year-old soul ring is indeed enormous, but Qian Renxue's current soul power is not weak.

"Xue'er, I won't stop you from going to find Ding Quan, but you have to come back soon."

"Grandpa, I understand. He should be able to help me with my next test."
