Douluo Continent: Reversing Yin and Yang, the Haotian Palace and the Angel Sect

Inside the jade box lay a strange tulip. Its entire body was a dazzling golden color, like glass, with large flowers and each petal crystal clear.

It is indeed a divine medicinal herb—the Qiluo Tulip.

A faint golden soul power shone from Qian Xunji's fingertips, precisely probing into the flower's stamen like an invisible, thin blade. He didn't shred the entire immortal herb, but carefully separated about a third of the golden flower's essence.

Under the compression and condensation of soul power, the delicate flower stamens quickly melted and gathered, eventually condensing in mid-air into a pill the size of a longan, radiating dazzling golden light.

"Open your mouth." Qianxunji flicked her finger.

Yu Rongrong didn't have time to think, or even react. Driven by her martial spirit instincts, she opened her mouth almost reflexively.

The golden pill transformed into a stream of light and entered her mouth.

The pill melted instantly upon entering her mouth, transforming into a warm current that flowed down her throat and directly into her limbs and bones.

"Meditate immediately and refine it." Qian Xunji put away the remaining immortal herbs.

Yu Rongrong dared not be negligent in the slightest, and immediately sat cross-legged and began to meditate.

As the effects of the medicine spread, a faint golden light gradually appeared on Yu Rongrong's body, and the phantom of a seven-story pagoda slowly emerged above her head.

A long silence fell over the quiet room.

In less than half an hour, the golden light surrounding Yu Rongrong receded.

She exhaled a breath of stale air and opened her tightly closed eyes.

Yu Rongrong subconsciously raised her right hand, her palm surging with soul power.

"Seven treasures emerge, revealing the Overlord..."

The moment she uttered the incantation, the pagoda that materialized in her palm froze her in place as if she had been struck by a spell.

One floor, two floors, three floors... seven floors.

Above what should have been the seventh floor, a completely new tower base was forcibly erected, shimmering with an even more profound radiance!

Eight floors!

Eight Treasures Overlord Pagoda!

Yu Rongrong stared intently at the martial spirit in her palm, her lips trembling violently.

In the history of the Seven Treasures Overlord Clan, the level of a martial spirit represents the limit of one's strength.

The seventh level means that one can only ever be a Soul Saint in this lifetime, and will never be able to glimpse the realm of a Soul Douluo.

And now, this curse that had accompanied the sect for countless generations was easily broken by a single pill in her hands!

"Your talent is among the best in the Seven Treasures Overlord Sect this generation."

Qian Xunji's voice rang out at the right time, pulling Yu Rongrong out of the shocking mire. "This immortal plant is called Qiluo Tulip. It is a treasure nurtured by the spiritual energy of heaven and earth. It has a miraculous effect on your kind of gemstone martial soul, transforming you completely."

"If you were to consume the entire immortal herb, it would indeed allow your martial spirit to break through to the Nine Treasures realm, completely rewriting the fate of your sect."

"But..." Chihiro paused.

"The premise is that you have to demonstrate that you deserve its value. This one-third of the drug's potency is just a taste. The remaining two-thirds depend on your performance afterward."

Yu Rongrong was shocked. If breaking through to the Eight Treasures level was a pleasant surprise, then Qian Xunji's promise of "Nine Treasures" was a poison she couldn't refuse!

That was the dream of all the people in the Seven Treasures Overlord Sect throughout the ages!

She instantly understood Qian Xunji's intention.

This is both a blessing and the deadliest chain.

Without any further hesitation or humiliation, Yu Rongrong lifted her skirt with both hands and knelt down in front of Qian Xunji with a "thump".

She pressed her forehead against the cold floor.

"Thank you so much for your kindness, senior! I will brave any danger to live up to your expectations!"

Qian Xunji looked at the girl at his feet, and used his soul power to lift her up.

"Remember what you said today." Qianxun turned around quickly.

"Next, master the 'Distraction Beast Taming Technique'. As for your fourth soul ring... I require it to be ten thousand years old. I'll help you with that. As for whether it's an eight-treasure or nine-treasure ring, that depends on whether you're destined for it."

The moment the words left his mouth, the space inside the quiet room distorted.

When Yu Rongrong looked up, the tall figure had already disappeared.

……

On the other side of Tiandou City, at the Shrek Academy's residence.

Since Titan's sudden death, Shrek's base has been shrouded in an eerie atmosphere of oppression.

Without Titan, their humanoid "power bank" that could be drained at will, Tang San and Yu Xiaogang's cultivation progress plummeted.

Tang San sat cross-legged on the bed, circulating his Mysterious Heaven Skill.

Although the internal energy flowing through his meridians was still pure, compared to the previous rapid advance, the current methodical meditation was like someone who was used to riding a horse suddenly going on foot. This sense of disparity made him feel somewhat irritable.

But he could barely accept it. After all, he possessed twin martial souls and had the Xuan Tian Gong as his foundation. Even with normal cultivation, his speed could still crush 99% of the geniuses of his age.

But the situation was completely different for Yu Xiaogang in the next room.

In the dim candlelight, Yu Xiaogang's stiff face appeared somewhat distorted in the firelight.

Without Tang San using Blue Silver Grass to "filter" and purify his high-level soul power, his cultivation speed, relying solely on his mutated, useless martial soul Luo Sanpao, was simply outrageous.

Even though he now has a third spirit ring, the unfinished devouring skill called "Bewitching Inversion" is still just a drop in the ocean.

He tried using it on a few ordinary wild beasts he had bought, draining their flesh and blood, but sadly discovered that the mixed and inferior energy was not even enough to replenish the soul power he consumed every day when using his martial spirit.

The improvement was almost zero.

"Damn it! Why did I have to die at this critical moment!" Yu Xiaogang slammed his fist heavily on the table, the greed and resentment in his eyes gnawing at his reason like a venomous snake.

After experiencing the rapid breakthrough without effort, to return him to the state of being a useless person who has been sitting still for decades is a million times more painful than killing him!

But he didn't have time to vent his frustration.

Two days later, Shrek Academy will face a major match in the qualifying rounds: against the Heavenly Dou Royal Second Team.

That team that had once humiliated them severely on the Soul Arena and was regarded as their arch-enemy.

Although the qualifying rounds were only to determine the order of the fifteen qualifying teams, for Shrek Academy, which had already secured a spot in the competition, the outcome of the match did not affect the overall situation.

Given their current injury-plagued state, competing for first place is clearly unrealistic, so they don't have much psychological burden regarding their points ranking.

However, they couldn't swallow this insult.

Even knowing that Qian San and his group were incredibly strong, even knowing that this would be a tough battle, the flames of revenge still burned in the eyes of every member of Shrek Academy.

Their only wish is to take advantage of this insignificant ranking match, under the spotlight, to bite off a piece of the Tiandou Second Team, wash away the previous humiliation, and get revenge!
