Douluo Continent: Breaking Through the Clouds, the Qilin Marches!

Not long after, a violent surge of soul power erupted from Dugu Bo's body. Strands of foul-smelling black blood seeped from his pores, and the enormous phantom of the Azure Phosphorous Serpent King behind him appeared, writhing and twisting in mid-air in agony, showing signs of elongation and the growth of horns as it underwent a metamorphosis.

Seeing that Dugu Bo had entered a deep state of transformation, Yang Yuntian took out a large armchair from his storage soul tool, placed it steadily behind Yang Wudi, helped his grandfather sit down, and handed him a pot of warm spring water.

"Grandpa, you've worked hard. You don't need to do anything for the next few days, just rest," Yang Yuntian said softly.

"Exhilarating! In my entire life, I've never refined such a miraculous elixir! Absolutely exhilarating!" Yang Wudi gulped down the spring water, his face weary but his spirits high. "Yun Tian, ​​now's the time to tell me your next plans. It's time for us, grandfather and grandson, to enjoy the treasures within this Yin-Yang Well!"

Yang Yuntian objectively analyzed the situation, his gaze directly locking onto the two immortal herbs with opposite attributes beside the Ice and Fire Spring—"Eight-Cornered Mystic Ice Grass" and "Blazing Apricot Blossom".

"First, we must strengthen our own combat capabilities. Either of these two immortal herbs, taken individually, contains enough toxicity and energy to kill a Title Douluo. However, if we neutralize them using the principle of the mutual restraint of ice and fire, they become a domineering body-tempering elixir."

"If an ordinary person wanted to absorb it, they would have to risk swallowing it whole and then jumping into this Yin-Yang Well to forcibly temper their body with the power of the spring water—a near-death experience. But with you here, why gamble with your life?"

Yang Yuntian looked at his grandfather, his eyes gleaming: "I hope you can completely neutralize these two immortal herbs, removing their violent impurities. Because the energy they contain is simply too vast, and they are mutually reinforcing yet mutually restraining, it's highly likely that they can only be condensed into a Yin-Yang Unity Pill. If I take it, I will not only be spared the near-death experience of tempering my body in the spring water, but I can also absorb all the foundational energy, gaining immunity to ice and fire, and being impervious to all poisons. This will greatly accelerate Xiao Hei's growth and further increase the upper limit of my physical body's capacity."

Yang Wudi's eyes lit up: "Good lad! Using pills to resolve the rage and perfectly absorb the essence—this is the right way! I'll go start the furnace right now!"

"Grandpa, don't rush, let's sit down quickly." Yang Yuntian grabbed Yang Wudi's arm and poured cold water on him. "Haste makes waste. You're already exhausted. If you try to refine the immortal herbs in this state, the slightest mistake will cause the furnace to explode."

"For someone of Senior Dugu's cultivation level to undergo a complete transformation, it will take at least a few days. During these few days, you should meditate and recover here. Once Senior Dugu has finished his transformation and your energy and spirit have recovered, then we can start the furnace again."

"Once I consume the elixir and my physical body completes its transformation, it will be time for me to break through the bottleneck of my level ten full soul power. At that time, with you and Senior Dugu, two top experts, jointly leading the hunt for the first soul ring in Sunset Forest, with the foundation of the Yin-Yang Unity Pill, I dare not say a thousand years, but eight or nine hundred years will definitely be a piece of cake for me to obtain my first soul ring!"

As Yang Wudi listened to his grandson's meticulously planned scheme, he couldn't help but nod repeatedly.

"The time you spend hunting soul beasts will also be a time for relaxation and rest for you." Yang Yuntian's gaze finally fell on the black jade bamboo in the corner of the herb garden, which was as black as ink and exuded a metallic luster.

"Once we return with the Soul Rings and rest for a few days, your condition will surely return to its peak. At that time, you can use the Black Jade Divine Bamboo as the main ingredient to refine your own Breakthrough Pill!"

"The Ink Jade Divine Bamboo is known as the most resilient and wondrous object in the world. Once it is refined into an elixir, it can forcefully widen your blocked meridians and pave the way for you to achieve a title in the future."

Upon hearing the words "Title Douluo," Yang Wudi gripped the armrests of the armchair tightly, his knuckles turning white.

"Okay! We'll do it your way!" Yang Wudi took a deep breath, suppressed his excitement, closed his eyes, and began to meditate to recover.

……

Time flies in the mountains; three days passed in the blink of an eye.

For the past three days, the energy fluctuations of the Ice and Fire Yin-Yang Eye have almost never ceased. The area around the boulder where Dugu Bo is located has been covered by a thick layer of black poisonous molt.

Until noon on the third day.

"roar--!"

A loud dragon roar, completely different from the previous Snake King's secretive and sinister roar, and exuding the pressure of soul power, suddenly resounded in the valley!

The layer of poisonous molting covering Dugu Bo shattered with a crash. In mid-air, the huge phantom of the Azure Phosphorous Serpent King had completely disappeared. In its place were dragons with one horn on each head, four claws on their bellies, and their bodies covered with crystal-clear dark green scales!

Azure Phosphorous Poisonous Dragon!

Dugu Bo suddenly opened his eyes. His previously cloudy dark green pupils were now crystal clear. He felt the immense poison power within his body, which was now completely integrated with his bloodline and had no more stagnation. He looked up at the sky and let out a hearty, unrestrained laugh.

The nightmare that had plagued him for half his life was finally over!

"Congratulations, Senior Dugu, on shedding your snake form and transforming into a true dragon." Yang Yuntian stood not far away and offered his congratulations. The little black jade unicorn on his shoulder also let out a low roar, seemingly echoing the newly formed dragon in mid-air.

Dugu Bo leaped off the boulder, his once gloomy and cold face now filled with undisguised excitement and ecstasy.

"Old Poison Master, how do you feel?" Yang Wudi stepped forward, looked Dugu Bo up and down, whose aura had changed drastically, stroked his beard, and looked at the satisfaction and pride of a master alchemist for his masterpiece.

"It's like being reborn!" Dugu Bo took a deep breath, clenched his fists tightly, and his knuckles cracked crisply.

"Not only has the excruciating backlash completely disappeared, but the Azure Phosphorus Serpent venom within my body has also been perfectly purified, completely merging into the dragon's bloodline! Poison is blood, and blood is poison; there is no more rejection! Brother Yang, I am truly impressed by your miraculous alchemy skills!"

At this point, Dugu Bo suddenly lifted his long robe and bowed deeply to Yang Wudi, his tone devoid of any of the airs of a Title Douluo: "Brother Yang, I am deeply grateful!" His tone was filled with undisguised elation and pride, "Your Creation Tempering Pill not only eradicated the backlash poison inherited from my lineage, but its immense medicinal power also completely opened up my meridians that had been blocked for many years! Just now, in the instant I transformed into a dragon, my soul power broke through two levels, reaching level ninety-three!"

At this point, an air of superiority arose within him: "With the foundation of this Azure Phosphorous Poisonous Flood Dragon, I dare say that within three years at most, I will definitely be able to step into the threshold of a level 95 Super Douluo! At that time, what will I have to fear in the entire Heaven Dou Empire?"

"Alright, enough with the empty formalities." Yang Wudi waved his hand, but the smile in his eyes was impossible to hide. He patted Dugu Bo on the shoulder, "Just remember your promise and protect my people of Tiandou City and that medicine shop."

"Of course! Anyone who dares to touch them, I will slaughter their entire family!" Dugu Bo replied decisively.
