Douluo Continent: An Adventure Begins in Wuhun City

Furthermore, the body had become almost transparent, with blood vessels and bones clearly visible.

The facial features, which were still vaguely discernible, were now extremely distorted, their faces contorted in agony, as if they were enduring immense pain.

Upon seeing this, Chen Yao raised an eyebrow.

Will Bibi Dong die from exhaustion?

So he doesn't want to wander the world anymore?

After all, Bibi Dong came out with him, and the Spirit Hall would definitely suspect him.

Even if they don't believe he has the strength to harm Bibi Dong, they will definitely make him pay with his life.

So if Bibi Dong died, where should he go?

Chen Yao was already considering what would happen to Bibi Dong after her death. But before he could find a safe place, he saw Bibi Dong's ferocious face slowly begin to soften.

The body also began to gradually return to its normal skin color.

Chapter 55 Bibi Dong's Martial Soul Transformation

Seeing that Bibi Dong seemed to have pulled through, Chen Yao breathed a sigh of relief. It seemed he didn't need to run away anymore.

He then ignored Bibi Dong, who was making his heart race, and focused on examining his own condition.

To his delight, his body felt incredibly light, as if he could take off with a single step on the ground. It seemed this magical herb lived up to its description.

It truly transformed him completely.

What's even more surprising is that Chen Yao has actually leveled up to level 29!

It's increased by a full 7 levels!

It's important to understand that this wasn't just because Chen Yao absorbed two immortal herbs in succession.

The increase in soul power after absorbing immortal herbs actually depends more on one's own talent.

Talent is like a water tank inside the body.

The higher one's talent, the larger the water tank becomes, allowing it to absorb more energy from the outside world.

Those with poor talent are like a smaller water tank; even if a huge amount of energy comes from the outside, it cannot be contained and can only overflow and dissipate.

So from another perspective, Chen Yao's talent should actually be considered excellent.

"But why is my cultivation speed so slow?"

Chen Yao felt his soul power increase significantly, and he seemed somewhat confused.

Now that it can be confirmed that there is nothing wrong with his talent, his slow cultivation speed is not due to a lack of aptitude.

Although he was able to prove his talent without any problems, Chen Yao's expression showed no joy. He thought of a certain possibility, quickly closed his eyes, and began to meditate, refining the soul power floating in the air.

But soon, Chen Yao opened his eyes again, his face filled with a gloomy expression.

As expected, the speed at which he refined his soul power was exactly the same as before, without any change!

If his cultivation speed is not related to his talent, then what is the reason?

Chen Yao's eyes were filled with gloom. He then slowly got up and walked towards the two supreme immortal herbs at the spring.

Upon arriving at the immortal herb, Chen Yao stood still, his eyes filled with uncertain emotions, as if he were hesitating and struggling with something.

Now, he has no other choice. If he wants to change himself, he can only take these two most precious but extremely potent medicinal herbs.

Originally, he had prepared himself to die trying if he didn't succeed.

But now, he suddenly realized that even if he successfully absorbed these two immortal herbs, he probably wouldn't get any good results.

This caused his originally firm resolve to waver slightly.

Knowing full well that it has no effect, yet still insisting on absorbing it, is foolish.

However, Chen Yao was filled with resentment at the thought of giving up.

However, just as he was hesitating, a ripple seemed to appear in the spring where ice and fire intertwined, producing a strange fluctuation.

Along with this ripple, Chen Yao felt an impulse rising within him, a desire to plunge headlong into the spring.

This fluctuation originated from his martial spirit, and also from his own deep-seated desire.

Upon seeing this, Chen Yao's expression changed.

He had never felt this way before. This loss of control over his body and mind was countless times more terrifying than when he was under the influence of the drugs!

"That must be it, what's going on?"

Chen Yao resisted the desire in his heart, his face contorted with difficulty, his fear of his position making him instinctively want to retreat.

Just kidding, in the original novel, Tang San only had half of his body submerged in the Yin-Yang Well.

Now, the impulse within him compels him to plunge directly into the Yin-Yang Well of Ice and Fire.

Wasn't he directly obliterated by the intertwined energies of ice and fire?

However, just as Chen Yao was about to leave the area where ice and fire energies intertwined.

As if sensing Chen Yao's reluctance to leave, the spring began to ripple violently.

Then the water began to spin violently and wildly, forming a whirlpool. At the center of the whirlpool was an extremely dark eddy, like an abyss, which inspired fear in those who saw it.

As the water swirled, a powerful suction force erupted from it, leaving Chen Yao with absolutely no chance to resist.

"Fuck!"

With a terrified scream, Chen Yao was sucked into the whirlpool without any resistance.

However, before entering the water, he still took the time to reach out and pluck the eight-cornered ice grass and the fiery apricot, holding them tightly in his hands.

If disaster is inevitable, at least imitating Tang San and entering the Ice and Fire Yin-Yang Well with these two immortal herbs can give him a sense of security.

······

On the other side, Bibi Dong also successfully absorbed the snow-white swan kiss not long ago.

Opening her eyes, a hint of lingering fear flashed across her face.

As the most powerful poison-type martial soul in Douluo Continent, she naturally knew how to absorb this extremely poisonous immortal herb.

There are no special techniques involved; it's simply a matter of directly absorbing the medicinal power into the body, triggering a massive explosion of toxins within the body, thus causing a qualitative change!

However, doing so also carries enormous risks. If the body cannot adapt to the surge of toxins, leading to loss of control and toxin chaos, then Bibi Dong will face utter ruin!

Bibi Dong had gone through something similar before, and had a brush with death.

Fortunately, her martial soul eventually adapted to the poison of the Snow Swan Kiss and merged with it, allowing Bibi Dong to gradually control the surge of toxins in her body and guide the changes in the toxins and her martial soul.

Finally, it's all done!

Her two martial souls, Soul Devouring Spider Emperor and Death Spider Emperor, are both powerful based on poison attributes.

Now, the toxins in Bibi Dong's body have undergone a transformation due to the most poisonous Snow Swan Kiss in the world, which has also driven the evolution of her two martial souls!

Nowadays, it might be more appropriate to call them the Soul-Eating Spider God and the Death Spider God!

Feeling the transformation of her martial soul, Bibi Dong was overjoyed and immediately summoned her own martial soul to possess it!

Her original spirit possession form had an upper body that was no different from her own, but her lower body was like a spider, an extremely ugly and huge torso with eight spider spears extending outwards and rooted in the ground.

It made her look like a hideous monster, half-human and half-beast, utterly disgusting.

But now, that ugly lower body has been transformed into natural legs, and it has been dressed in a simple yet exquisite deep purple armor. Every part of it is natural and appropriate, with an indescribable beauty, yet it is also filled with an astonishing sharpness and killing intent!

The eight spider spears were also retracted behind him, ready to be unleashed.

At this moment, she did not appear to be evil at all; instead, she resembled a purple Valkyrie with an eerie and mysterious aura!

Looking at her current spirit possession form, Bibi Dong was overjoyed. She gently stroked the armor on her body, her eyes filled with pride and satisfaction.

However, just as she was lost in her own world, she suddenly heard Chen Yao's terrified cry from beside her.

Bibi Dong's heart skipped a beat, and she turned her head repeatedly to look, only to see Chen Yao fall into the water!

Chapter 56 Chen Yao's Life and Death

Upon seeing this, Bibi Dong was momentarily stunned. She had previously investigated the spring, which was formed by the intertwining of two extreme and terrifying energies.

Let alone Chen Yao, even she herself would likely face a near-death experience if she fell into that raging spring of energy.

Since Chen Yao accidentally fell into the water and had no chance of survival, Bibi Dong should have been overjoyed that she had avenged her great grudge and no longer had to be threatened by this insignificant soul master.

However, at this moment, her brain felt as if it had been hit by a heavy hammer, leaving her dizzy and disoriented.

It felt as if a sharp blade was piercing my heart again and again, until it was full of wounds and bleeding profusely!

The light in her eyes was fading, and all that met her eyes was a heavy gray.

In an instant, she felt as if the sky had collapsed, and an indescribable despair enveloped her, making her feel suffocated!

"Chen Yao!"

Bibi Dong's eyes suddenly turned bloodshot, and she roared with all her might, unleashing a speed that even Soul Saints could hardly match. In the blink of an eye, she arrived at the spring.

The intertwining of icy and scorching energies enveloped Bibi Dong, who had suddenly intruded, making it difficult for her to breathe and causing her soul power to flow sluggishly.

But at this moment, she had no mind to care about such small details.

Bibi Dong immediately summoned her Martial Soul and gathered her Soul Power around her body. Then she actually wanted to jump directly into the spring!

However, just as Bibi Dong was about to step into the water, a terrifying repulsive force suddenly erupted from the water, preventing her from taking the step she was about to take!

Bibi Dong didn't know much about the Ice and Fire Yin-Yang Eye and had no idea what it was all about.

At that moment, she had only one thought in her mind: to go into the water and pull Chen Yao out.

I want to see him alive, or I want to see his body!

She gritted her teeth and frantically channeled her soul power, causing the six optimally configured soul rings behind her to radiate dazzling light.

But it was all in vain; her feet seemed to no longer belong to her at this moment, remaining completely still.
