Douluo Continent: Twin Blue Silver Grasses, Life and Death in Transmission!

Did you peek at Chapter 37?

Ye Xuanming explained the principles and effects of whale glue body tempering to Ye Xingyue in detail.

After listening, Ye Xingyue seemed to understand: "I see, I thought—"

"Mother, what are you thinking?" Ye Lengling said, blushing.

Dugu Yan chuckled to herself, "Aunt Ye, your thoughts are the same as ours before."

Ye Xingyue coughed lightly and resumed her normal expression.

"Since it's for cultivation, then there's no problem. However, someone needs to look after the whale glue while it's being refined, especially Leng Leng, who is a support-type Soul Master and has a relatively weak physique."

"Then I'll have to trouble you, Aunt Ye," Ye Xuanming said gratefully.

"You're welcome," Ye Xingyue said with a gentle smile. "You're all children, of course I'll take good care of you."

Afterwards, Ye Xingyue prepared three large wooden tubs and placed them in the courtyard.

"These barrels are made of special wood that can withstand high temperatures."

Ye Xingyue explained, "After you take the whale gelatin, you'll soak in it, and I'll be there to watch over you."

Dugu Yan looked at the wooden bucket, somewhat nervously: "Xuanming, are you sure there's no danger?"

"Don't worry, I've already tried," Ye Xuanming reassured him. "It'll just be a little uncomfortable, but you'll get through it."

Ye Lengleng was also a little uneasy: "Will the side effects be very noticeable?"

"This—" Ye Xuanming thought for a moment, "It might feel a bit hot, but it should be relieved in ice water."

Ye Xingyue poured ice water into the wooden tub and prepared some towels and supplementary medications.

Ye Xuanming picked up the box containing the Millennium Whale Glue and turned to walk towards the kitchen.

"I'll go process the whale glue. You guys get ready."

Dugu Yan and Ye Lengleng looked at each other, both somewhat nervous.

After all, this was their first time trying this body-refining method.

Inside the kitchen, Ye Xuanming poured the Millennium Whale Glue onto the cutting board and carefully cut it into three equal parts with a knife.

This substance is hard at room temperature and needs to be heated to soften.

He lit the stove fire and put the cut whale glue into three small pots, heating them slowly.

Soon, the whale glue began to soften, emitting a peculiar fishy smell.

Ye Xuanming wrinkled his nose; the smell was indeed not very pleasant.

"Xuanming, why is it taking so long?" Dugu Yan called out from the courtyard.

"Almost done!" Ye Xuanming replied, pouring the softened whale gelatin into three bowls.

The gelatinous substance trembled slightly in the bowl, emitting a faint steam.

Ye Xuanming carried three bowls out of the kitchen.

In the courtyard, Ye Xingyue had already set up three wooden buckets, filled with ice water.

Dugu Yan and Ye Lingling stood to the side, their faces filled with apprehension.

"Go into the tub immediately after taking the whale gel," Ye Xingyue instructed. "Remember, no matter how uncomfortable it is, you must persevere."

Ye Xuanming handed the three bowls to the two girls and himself.

"This smell—" Dugu Yan sniffed it; it had a fishy odor. Her face turned slightly green. "Do you really want to drink it?"

"Good medicine tastes bitter," Ye Xuanming comforted him. "I'll go first."

He picked up the bowl and drank the whale gelatin in one gulp.

The gelatinous substance slid down my throat, carrying a strong, fishy taste.

Seeing Ye Xuanming's expression, Dugu Yan swallowed hard.

"Sister Yanzi, let's go together." Ye Leng Leng grasped her friend's hand.

"Alright!" Dugu Yan gritted her teeth. "I'll risk it!"

The two girls tilted their heads back at the same time and drank the whale gel in one gulp.

As soon as he finished drinking, Ye Xuanming felt a surge of heat rising deep in his lower abdomen.

This feeling is even stronger than last time, after all, this time it's the elixir of the Millennium Whale.

"Quick, get in the bucket!" He jumped into the wooden bucket.

The ice water instantly enveloped my entire body, temporarily relieving the feeling of heat.

But Ye Xuanming knew that this was just the beginning.

Dugu Yan and Ye Lingling also jumped into the wooden tub one after the other.

At first, there was no reaction, and the two were still in the mood to chat.

"This water is so cold." Dugu Yan shivered.

"Just bear with it," Ye Lingling comforted her.

But soon, the effects of the whale gelatin began to take hold.

Ye Xuanming was the first to sense the change.

An unusual heat surged from deep within his lower abdomen, instantly engulfing his entire body.

His body temperature rose sharply, and his breathing became heavy.

Having prior experience and with his physical condition strengthened, Ye Xuanming was able to barely control himself.

But Dugu Yan and Ye Lengleng were not so lucky.

"It's so hot—" Dugu Yan's face was flushed, and fine beads of sweat appeared on her forehead.

Ye Lengleng's condition was even worse; she was already physically weak, and now she had started to tremble.

Ye Xingyue quickly went over to check on her daughter.

"Your temperature is too high." She frowned. "I'll go get more ice."

Just as Ye Xingyue turned around, Dugu Yan suddenly stood up.

"It's so hot! I can't stand it!"

She began to unbutton her coat, her movements somewhat flustered.

Ye Xuanming's eyes widened: "Sister Yanzi! What are you doing?!"

"It's so hot!" Dugu Yan didn't care about anything else anymore. "Why are these clothes so thick!"

Ye Lengleng also began to take off her coat; her usually gentle personality was completely overwhelmed by the heat.

"Sister Leng Leng! Calm down!" Ye Xuanming was extremely anxious.

But the two girls were completely deaf to reason; the side effects of the whale gel had driven them mad.

Ye Xingyue returned carrying ice blocks and nearly dropped them upon seeing this scene.

"You two! Sit down right now!"

Her voice carried an air of authority, which brought Dugu Yan and Ye Lengleng back to their senses.

"Aunt Ye—I'm so hot—" Dugu Yan looked at Ye Xingyue with a wronged expression.

Ye Xingyue quickly poured ice into the wooden bucket, and the water temperature dropped significantly instantly.

"Bear with it, it's only temporary," Ye Xingyue comforted her. "The effects of the medicine will wear off soon."

But as it turns out, the effects of the Millennium Whale Glue last longer than expected.

For the next half hour, the three of them struggled against the intense heat.

Ye Xuanming barely managed to hold on thanks to his strong physique and willpower, but Dugu Yan and Ye Lengleng were not having such an easy time.

Dugu Yan's face was flushed, and she lay weakly on the edge of the wooden tub.

"Sister Yanzi, Sister Leng Leng, hang in there," Ye Xuanming said, his voice a little hoarse.

Ye Lengleng was in the same situation, her head steaming, unable to speak.

Ye Xingyue kept adding ice cubes to the wooden bucket, and beads of sweat appeared on her forehead.

"I should have known better than to let you refine it all together," she said with some regret. "We should have done it one at a time."

"It's alright, Aunt Ye," Ye Xuanming forced a smile, "We can manage."

Just then, Dugu Yan suddenly let out a muffled groan.

"What's wrong?" Ye Xingyue hurriedly checked on her.

"I feel—something flowing inside my body—" Dugu Yan's voice was very weak.

Ye Xuanming knew that the energy from the whale gel was beginning to transform his body.

"This is a good thing; it means the medicine is starting to take effect."

Sure enough, not long after, Ye Lengleng had the same feeling.

"How strange—it feels like countless tiny insects are crawling inside my blood vessels—"

As time passed, the three people's conditions gradually stabilized.

The heat gradually subsided, replaced by an unprecedented feeling of comfort.

Ye Xuanming was the first to recover.

He stood up and felt the changes within his body.

My strength has indeed increased significantly, and my body's resilience has also improved markedly.

"How are you feeling?" Ye Xingyue asked with concern.

"Very good." Ye Xuanming stretched his arms. "The effect is even better than expected."

Dugu Yan and Ye Lengleng also gradually recovered.

Although their faces were still a little pale, their mental state had clearly improved.

"I feel stronger." Dugu Yan clenched her fist. "Is this the effect of the whale glue?"

Ye Lingling nodded: "My body feels much lighter, and my soul power is circulating more smoothly."

Ye Xingyue breathed a sigh of relief: "It seems we succeeded."

The three of them came out of the wooden tub, and Ye Xingyue thoughtfully prepared towels and changes of clothes.

"Go take a shower first, then get some rest," she instructed. "We'll test the specific effects tomorrow."

After taking a shower, the three of them gathered in the living room.

"Xuanming, I feel like I can kill a soul beast with one punch right now!" Dugu Yan excitedly waved her fist.

Ye Lingling chuckled softly from the side, "Yanzi, you're exaggerating."

"That's no exaggeration!" Dugu Yan retorted, "I genuinely feel very strong right now!"

Ye Xuanming shook his head and chuckled: "Whale glue mainly enhances physical attributes, not directly increases attack power."

"What's the difference?" Dugu Yan asked, puzzled.

"The difference is huge," Ye Xuanming explained. "With improved physical attributes, you can withstand stronger spirit rings and unleash more powerful spirit skills."

Ye Lingling asked thoughtfully, "So, how many years of spirit rings can we withstand now?"

"It's hard to say. Let's wait until this batch of whale gelatin is consumed before making a decision."

Ye Xuanming didn't know how to estimate, but if there was no effect after consuming the Ten Thousand Year Whale Glue, his Ten Thousand Year Fourth Ring physique was definitely sufficient.

At this moment, Dugu Yan suddenly remembered something and a mischievous smile appeared on her face.

"Xuanming, did you peek when Lingling and I were taking off our clothes?"
