Douluo Continent: Crossing Over to Battle Through the Heavens, Starting with a 100,000-Year Soul Rin

As for the method of absorbing spirits, it is indeed feasible according to the records in Yao Chen's method. In addition to absorbing divine objects of heaven and earth such as strange fires, it can naturally accommodate other things as well.

Therefore, Dugu Bo's poison was naturally simple and sufficient for his use.

However, since Dugu Bo chose the first option, he wouldn't refuse it, and it would save him a portion of the spirit gathering cost.

“Let’s go to your herb garden. The environment of the Ice and Fire Yin-Yang Eye is more suitable for treatment.”

Chapter 20 The Yin-Yang Well of Ice and Fire is in Hand! Return

At the heart of the Sunset Forest, the eye of both ice and fire.

Looking at this place, which could be described as a small paradise, Xiao Wujiu couldn't help but marvel at its wonders.

The interplay of icy power here makes it an excellent place for those with ice-attribute and fire-attribute battle qi to cultivate.

After he arrived, he began to prepare the things needed to treat Dugu Bo. Since Dugu Bo's condition was not as terrible as the Calamity Poison Body, the requirements for the things needed could be lowered.

A fifth-tier low-level magic core, three beast flames, and a pill made primarily from ice and fire spring water are all that's needed to help Dugu Bo condense the poison pill.

He prepared all the items, and even when he was fetching the Ice and Fire Spring water, a look of surprise appeared on his face.

What did he see? A whole pool of icy, cold spring water!

No, although they are different, their effects are almost identical, and they can be considered a perfect substitute for Ice Spirit Cold Spring.

As for the Fire Spring, it is very similar to a treasure called Earth Marrow Flame Liquid, and it is also similar to the Ice Spirit Cold Spring. At the same time, it has the effect of accelerating the cultivation of fire attribute battle qi cultivators.

There was no rush to collect it; after all, the things were there, and they would all be his sooner or later.

Immediately afterwards, he began to prepare for Dugu Bo's poison problem. Since there was already a rudimentary poison pill in his body, he only needed to use it as a basis for treatment.

----------

Dugu Bo felt an unprecedented sense of ease in his body, and felt refreshed.

It was this feeling of being freed from all shackles that made him realize how bad his physical condition had been before.

"Kid, you're amazing! How did you even come up with that?"

Dugu Bo couldn't help but sigh. Xiao Wujiu first refined medicine to protect his body and meridians, then used flames to expel the poison from him, and based on the poison pill, he condensed a brand new poison pill that could completely control the poison!

"Don't be too happy yet. Your body has been afflicted by toxins for many years and is severely depleted. I will give you some pills later. If you do as I say, you will recover quickly and it will even help you advance further."

Hearing Dugu Bo's arrogant tone, Xiao Wujiu shook his head and said that there weren't many traders as responsible and helpful as him, but the Ice and Fire Yin-Yang Well was indeed worth the price.

Then he continued to examine each medicinal herb in the Yin-Yang Well of Ice and Fire, carefully observing and pondering its medicinal properties with his spiritual power.

In his view, direct ingestion ultimately cannot maximize its effectiveness.

Tang San can eat, but that's all he can do. He just eats without wasting the medicinal power. As an alchemist, all he can do is amplify the medicinal effects of these "immortal herbs" and bring out 200%, 300%, or even more of their medicinal power!

He clapped his hands and looked at Dugu Bo, saying, "Oh, right, there's also what I promised you."

As he spoke, he took out several scrolls from his storage ring, including a low-level Xuan-rank cultivation technique called "Azure Phosphorus Technique" and some Huang-rank poison-attribute combat techniques.

Of course, this technique wasn't called this before, but it is now.

Dugu Bo took it, not taking it seriously. Their Dugu family's ancestral meditation method was the most suitable meditation method for the Jade Phosphorous Serpent Martial Soul, which had been researched and developed over countless generations.

However, after he finished reading it, he found that the content was much more profound than the meditation method of the Dugu family. In fact, just by looking at it, the difference was obvious!

"This, this..."

Dugu Bo's expression changed several times, and then he opened the matching self-created soul skill again, and discovered a whole new world!

"Azure Phosphorous Poison Palm", "Blood-Destroying Finger", "Bone-Eating Hand", "Malaria Step"...

The unique and comprehensive self-created soul skills completely convinced Dugu Bo, and he even doubted his poison skills at one point.

"No, no, that's not how poison works. Shouldn't poison be scattered in large quantities with a wave of the hand, causing enemies to fall one after another?"

"That's not how it's recorded in the 'Stories of the Dugu Family'!"

However, the self-created soul skill in front of him truly gave him an opportunity to compete in high-level matches. He, Dugu Bo, was no longer just a sect-destroying Douluo!

"Young Wujiu, although I don't know how you obtained these self-created soul skills and meditation methods, I will remember this favor. In the future, if you need anything, just tell me!"

He looked at Xiao Wujiu with a solemn expression. Although he hadn't unlocked the special ability... he had received a promise, so he now had the first person he could trust in Douluo Continent.

“I understand. Your granddaughter’s poisoning is not severe. We can change the choice of her spirit ring to guide her, or you can guide her to complete the preliminary work for the poison pill, and I will refine the pill for her later.”

As Xiao Wujiu spoke, he took out a storage ring and handed it to Dugu Bo.

"So, you mean you're going to leave?"

“That’s right. Here is a soul tool for you. You can use it after you inject your soul power into it. It contains a few things that I need you to do for me.”

"There is an extremely important jade inside. You must keep it safe for me. When the time is right, I will come to you to get it. There are also some pills that I have refined inside as a reward, and also to prevent any accidents from happening to you."

"Finally, do you have another magical pouch that can store living things? Let me borrow it and take a look."

After Dugu Bo took it, he found that there were indeed many jade bottles with the effects of the pills labeled inside, as well as a jade piece that looked incomplete.

"I understand, I will keep it safe. As for the Ruyi Hundred Treasures Pouch, you can have it if you want."

He took the Ruyi Treasure Pouch from his waist, released the nine-section jade, and tossed it to Xiao Wujiu.

Xiao Wujiu accepted the Ruyi Hundred Treasures Pouch without ceremony, and Dugu Bo prepared to leave. Although he had promised the former that he would come and manage the place from time to time, it now belonged to Xiao Wujiu. Since the other party had given so much advice, there must be something he wanted to say.

Moreover, he had some guesses about Xiao Wujiu's identity, especially after he exchanged the items with him, which confirmed his guess!

Perhaps, the entire continent will undergo earth-shattering changes because of his arrival!

……

After Dugu Bo left, Xiao Wujiu stood inside the Yin-Yang Well and began preparing to leave. Now that he had figured out how to use the rules, he no longer needed to keep fighting in the Douluo World. There was nothing for him to do here for the time being, and he left some of the trivial matters to Dugu Bo.

"We'll deal with the dragon soul and the corpses inside the Yin-Yang Well when we come back next time. For now..."

Xiao Wujiu only took a portion of the spring water, then looked around at the "immortal herbs," collected some of the herbs for alchemy, and planted some medicinal plants to see how they would ripen.

"Now, it's time to return to the Dou Qi Continent."

Chapter 21: Organizing Intelligence and Gains (May be revised as needed; survival instincts are at their peak!)

Xiao Wujiu dropped a coordinate here to ensure that he wouldn't be randomly teleported to some strange place the next time he came to Douluo Continent.

As a golden, illusory door slowly appeared in front of him, he pushed open the gate that spanned the two worlds. Although he could teleport directly, this process of crossing over was still a very strange feeling.

As he stepped through the portal, the scene before him became illusory and colorful. After his body entered a void, when he emerged from the dreamlike state, he found himself in his own courtyard.

Looking at the familiar furnishings, he breathed a sigh of relief: "I'm home."

Pushing open the door, I looked at the warm sunlight streaming down from the bright sun, silently estimating the time in my mind.

"This trip to Douluo Continent took quite a while, and the family coming-of-age ceremony should be almost over. However, I missed the part of the story before the coming-of-age ceremony test, but it doesn't matter much."

He sat down at the stone table in the courtyard and began to ponder the gains he had made on this trip to Douluo Continent.

"Putting aside the items for now, we've gathered pretty much all the combat intelligence we need for this trip to Douluo Continent."

He took out a pot of tea from his storage ring, slowly boiled it with his battle qi, and then poured himself a cup of clear tea.

"The combat power system in the Douluo Continent world is not easy to calculate an average value, as it depends on martial soul and talent. However, by observing the combat power performance of Tang San and his companions, we can infer the correspondence between the first and second realms."

"Soul Venerable and below should correspond to the Battle Qi realm, Soul Sect corresponds to Battle Master, Soul King corresponds to Battle Master, Soul Emperor corresponds to Great Battle Master, Soul Saint corresponds to Battle Spirit, Soul Douluo corresponds to Battle King, and Title Douluo corresponds to the Battle Emperor realm."

Xiao Wujiu recalled his experiences in Douluo Continent and made predictions based on his own perceptions. It was not easy to distinguish the power systems of the two worlds, and he could only guess based on his subjective feelings.

Perhaps, aside from being able to compare upper limits of strength and system characteristics, the division of combat power is simply a subjective matter.

This is the most important point!

Both the Battle Qi and Soul Venerable realms are significant bottlenecks. Furthermore, the Battle Qi stage in Battle Through the Heavens possesses considerable combat power. The ten-thousand-year Soul Ring at the Soul King realm is considered a watershed moment, while the Martial Soul True Body at the Soul Saint realm represents a major breakthrough.

"But realms are one thing, in terms of combat power, the power system of the Battle Through the Heavens is definitely stronger than that of the Douluo Continent. Whether it is cultivation techniques or combat skills, the Douluo Continent is simply a wasteland, forming a balanced and unique power system of soul rings and mechanisms."

Xiao Wujiu shook his head. As for why the gap in high-end combat power in Douluo Continent was so large...

Based on the worldview of Douluo Continent, he speculated that Soul Masters might lack the method of obtaining a Soul Core.

Once a Dou Wang (Battle King) is able to mobilize the power of heaven and earth, a huge gap in combat strength emerges.

Even if the soul core is perfected later, the combat power will be closer to that of a Dou Wang, which matches the pattern of lower combat power corresponding to previous realms.

"In the end, Douluo Continent is also a world. Whether it is a 100,000-year-old soul beast or a titled Douluo, they are all amazing beings in this world. Soul masters lack the method of soul cores, so the combat power of a 100,000-year-old soul beast is much stronger than that of a soul master of the same level. This gap is even greater than the gap between humans and magical beasts on the Dou Qi Continent."

"Aside from rabbits and grass, all the 100,000-year-old soul beasts in Douluo Continent are super soul beasts. They are either powerful or outstanding in a certain aspect. If converted to Dou Qi Continent, they are geniuses whose combat power far exceeds that of their peers."

"The Soul Master system still needs improvement, and the combination of such genius Soul Beasts is what leads to such a large gap in combat power. But even so, the true combat power of Soul Beasts is still lower than their actual level, such as the Titan Giant Ape."

Xiao Wujiu continuously combined the characteristics of the two worlds to conduct the most reasonable and accurate analysis possible. If his speculation was correct, then the combat power of the God Realm might be around the Dou Zong realm.

"If that's the case, then the Douluo Continent can support me to smoothly reach the Dou Zong realm, and even help me to reach the Dou Zun realm?"

Xiao Wujiu was quite satisfied with this conclusion. The greatest help Douluo Continent gave him was not only that it was a world with many resources, but he valued even more its heaven-defying soul skills.

The refining process alone is something that countless alchemists yearn for.

"In addition to the immortal herbs we brought back this time, we also brought some ice and fire spring water, as well as Dugu Bo's poison, the Ruyi Hundred Treasure Pouch that can store living things, and several sets of awakening stones for martial soul awakening."

Xiao Wujiu took out six jet-black awakening stones. He wanted to see if people in this world could also awaken a martial soul.

However, he was not in a hurry to find someone to test it on. Instead, he took out the Ruyi Hundred Treasures Pouch from his waist and took out a Soft Bone Rabbit from Douluo Continent. After waking up, the Soft Bone Rabbit was jumping around in his hand.

"The fact that the portal can pass through beings other than me means that it is feasible to take people between the two worlds. The next step is to try to solidify the rules of Douluo Continent."

As he spoke, he directly used his battle qi to kill the Soft Bone Rabbit. As expected, the yellow hundred-year soul ring did not appear. He skillfully skinned and slaughtered the Soft Bone Rabbit and found a magic core in its brain!

"A hundred-year-old soul beast can obtain a first-tier magic core. There is no difference in energy fluctuations, only the level is a bit lower. If we cultivate a power in the future, then Douluo Continent may become a perfect place to produce soul cores!"

Xiao Wujiu was overjoyed, because this discovery would have a huge impact on the future, and even a bold idea popped into his mind—to open a breeding farm in Douluo Continent!

"However, I can't be too hasty. My top priority now is to improve my strength as soon as possible and digest the gains from this Douluo Continent."

Xiao Wujiu quickly cleared his mind of the jumbled thoughts and returned to the main storyline he had been pursuing. He put down his teacup, stepped out, and prepared to go to the Mittel Auction House.

----------

Inside a private room on the top floor of the Mittel auction house.

Ya Fei leaned back lazily in a chair, a hint of worry on her face, muttering something to herself.

"That little rascal, he disappeared for months without telling me where he went, it's so annoying!"
