Chapter 33
Yang Yun, through the external soul bone, clearly saw the location of the Earth Dragon Golden Melon; at this time it was still underground frantically absorbing the energy of the Ice and Fire Two Variety Eyes.
This external soul bone still had no obvious features, so there was no rush to give it a name; for now it had no name.
Casually scattering suitable medicinal herb seeds around the Ice and Fire Two Variety Eyes.
In not many years they will all be high-age medicinal herbs; Dugu Bo lacks experience; the medicinal garden he opened up only knows how to plant poisonous herbs.
He has wasted this precious land.
Yan Qiang Chong Li, with a single spear thrust, cut off the roots and stems of the Earth Dragon Golden Melon, lifted it out, and with a flip of the hand stored it into the Hundred Treasures Pouch.
After another patrol around the area, he found several stalks of black jade purple lingzhi in the crevices.
The three vermilion fruit trees bore over ten thousand-year vermilion fruits.
Here there are three thumb-sized ten-thousand-year jade tree spirit melons.
The treasures of the Ice and Fire Two Variety Eyes seem far more numerous than described in the original work; it appears that the brief mentions of the Huang family's three ghosts cannot possibly detail the full contents.
One still has to rely on one's own exploration.
"Dugu Bo, search for some rare and exotic plant seeds and plant them here; soon the sect's grand elder Yang Wu Di will come to exchange poison‑use insights with you, and the two of you should gain quite a bit from mutual verification."
After Yang Yun had gathered everything, he instructed Dugu Bo.
Dugu Bo broke into a delighted smile: "I have long heard that the Po clan excels at poison, and Yang Wu Di is also famed as a poison expert; I very much look forward to meeting the grand elder."
"Hn!"
Yang Yun nodded, and with a flap of his fire‑dragon wings behind him he swiftly vanished from the spot.
Dugu Bo wiped the cold sweat from his forehead; the sect master's aura was truly terrifying—next time it would be better to stand farther away.
At the same time he secretly felt some anticipation, knowing that Yang Wu Di was skilled in poison.
What he had just said was half‑true, half‑false; he indeed looked forward to exchanging poison‑use techniques with Yang Wu Di.
Star Luo Empire.
Star Luo City.
As soon as Yang Yun returned to the under‑construction Po Tian Sect, he immediately found Yang Wu Long, Yang Wu Hu, and Yang Wu Sha in the completed rear courtyard for a private discussion.
No one is allowed to disturb them.
When the three had gathered, Yang Wu Long was about to speak, but Yang Yun raised his hand to stop him.
"Has anything major happened within the sect?"
Yang Wu Long and the others exchanged glances, then each shook his head.
Seeing this, Yang Yun nodded and said: "Uncle Long, Uncle Hu, Uncle Sha; this time I have gathered you all inside the main gate because there is something very important I need to tell you."
Having said that, Yang Yun took out three pieces of soul bone from his soul tool; the third piece, a ten‑thousand‑year left arm bone, was something he had seen using the external soul bone on the coast.
It lay in the sea a few kilometers from the coast, beneath the seabed silt at a depth of one thousand meters.
If the soul bone did not have a distinctive halo, Yang Yun would have almost missed it.
"Soul bone?"
Yang Wu Long and the others stared, eyes wide, jaws dropped, faces full of shock.
"Sect master, your soul bones aren't yet complete; are you wanting us three brothers to stand guard for you?" Yang Wu Long, having recovered from his shock, said solemnly.
Yang Yun raised his hand to stop Yang Wu Hu and Yang Wu Sha, who were about to agree.
"These three ten‑thousand‑year soul bones are prepared for you; I already possess three high‑quality hundred‑thousand‑year soul bones on my person, so I have no use for ten‑thousand‑year ones."
"So it's decided, Uncles Long, Hu, and Sha—quickly absorb the soul bones; I still have other things to give you."
Yang Wu Hu and Yang Wu Sha were at a loss for a moment, their eyes all fixed on Yang Wu Long; Yang Wu Long, being stared at, was also completely bewildered, not knowing what to do.
"What? Are you three uncles unwilling to work for me again?" Yang Yun suddenly put on a stern face, his imposing aura without anger making Yang Wu Long grit his teeth.
He reached out, took the soul bone before him, and pressed it firmly onto his arm.
Yang Wu Hu and Yang Wu Sha grinned and followed suit.
With someone taking the lead, it was different; the three sat cross‑legged and began to absorb the soul bones.
Yang Yun's expression shifted from stern to a soft 'pfft' laugh, though the three uncles still harbored some reservations.
How could these three soul bones possibly repay the deep affection the three clan uncles have shown in protecting him all along?
The innate fire power within Yang Wu Long and the others had already been cultivated to perfection; a mere ten‑thousand‑year soul bone was refined and absorbed in the time it takes to burn an incense stick.
Their soul power also increased by one or two ranks.
Before they could voice their gratitude, Yang Yun produced three strange medicinal herbs and placed them before the three.
"Uncle Long, what lies before you is the Earth Dragon Golden Melon; a celestial‑grade herb that can help you swiftly break through level limits to reach the Title Douluo realm, and you will encounter no bottleneck before becoming a Super Douluo."
"Uncle Hu, what lies before you is the Marvelous Mushroom Through‑Heaven Chrysanthemum; consuming it circulates qi and blood through the limbs and the eight meridians, enabling one to forge an indestructible Vajra body; it can also aid you in breaking through to the Title Douluo realm."
"Uncle Sha, this is the Narcissus Jade Bone Marrow; it moistens tendons, strengthens bones, and circulates qi through the extraordinary tendons and the eight meridians; it can help you break through to the Title Douluo realm."
Without waiting for them to object, Yang Yun grew solemn and said: "The Po Tian Sect has just been founded; we previously slew Hu Yan Po of the Elephant Armor Sect; the grand elder faced an attack from the Elephant Armor Sect and the Wind Sword Sect, and the sect needs several Title Douluo to hold the fort."
"According to my investigation, five elders of the Clear Sky Sect have already broken through to Title Douluo; adding Tang Xiao and Tang Hao makes a full seven Title Douluo."
"The Po Tian Sect wishes to pierce the gloom brought by the Clear Sky Sect; having enough Title Douluo is essential; although these celestial‑grade herbs would be even better for the juniors, time waits for no one."
Upon hearing this, Yang Wu Long and the others also sucked in a breath of cold air.
The Seven Treasure Glazed Sect's single gate with two Douluo already suffices to look down on most continental sects; coupled with wealth that can rival a nation, only then can they sit firmly among the top three sects.
If the Clear Sky Sect truly possesses six Title Douluo, their emergence is merely a matter of time; it seems we cannot afford to wait any longer.
Under Yang Yun's expectant gaze, Yang Wu Long and his brothers each took several stalks of the celestial herbs and consumed them according to his method, refining them.
After half a day had passed.
Yang Wu Sha was the first to awaken; the aura of a Title Douluo was about to surge skyward, but Yang Yun suppressed it.
A Title Douluo who has not yet obtained the ninth spirit ring is merely a stronger Spirit Douluo.
If the Spirit Hall were to learn of this, those Title Douluo within the Spirit Hall would probably be unable to keep their seats.
The immortal herbs have all been consumed; the 100,000-year whale gelatin that comes after naturally won't be refused any further; after consumption, it is refined with a slow fire.
There are no side effects to worry about.
Yang Yun and Shui Bing'er actively enjoy the effects of the 100,000-year whale gelatin; the two are worlds apart.
"Whale gelatin, aside from its aphrodisiac effect, its greatest effect is strengthening the physique; fortunately, our Breaking Heaven Sect's creed is to strengthen the physique to the utmost in order to obtain a soul ring."
"Three uncles, I will hand this over to you; after I help you hunt down the ninth soul ring, there is an even more important task to entrust to you, and the family also needs you to guard it."
Yang Wulong and the two others' shock had long since gone numb.
Today's surprises are simply too many; even if Yang Yun were to produce another shocking treasure, the three of them would no longer be startled.
Just as they were thinking this, Yang Yun's voice once again pulled their souls back to reality.
"All right, Dragon Uncle, Tiger Uncle, Shark Uncle, get ready mentally; I will have you hunt down the 100,000-year ninth soul ring."
Yang Wulong and the two: ". ?"
