Chapter 72: Mutation in the Star Dou Great Forest

On the other side, the City of Slaughter.

Tang San is fighting wildly here.

Now he only wants revenge—for his father, for Xiao Wu, for his teacher, for his brothers!

Thus Tang San fights with extra frenzy.

But today, he received two special pieces of information from the Slaughter King; one is that a mutation is about to occur in the Star Dou Great Forest.

The other news is that on Sea God Island overseas, there is an opportunity for him to become stronger.

After hearing this, Tang San rushed without pause to Sea God Island, and he paid no mind to the impending mutation in the Star Dou Great Forest.

But if Bai Yuan learned of this news, he would be speechless, for under normal circumstances, how could a mutation occur in the Star Dou Great Forest?

After Tang San left, the Slaughter King's mouth twitched upward, and a smile unlike his usual one appeared on his face.

"Kid, I've already broken the rules for you to some degree, don't let me down," the Slaughter King muttered, but it was obvious he was no longer himself, nor was he Tang Chen.

Having said that, the Slaughter King slowly closed his eyes, and when he opened them again, a hint of puzzlement showed in his gaze.

Ice and Fire Dual-Form Eye.

Various auxiliary and primary herbs successively entered the alchemy furnace, turning to ash under high heat, leaving only their essence, which merged with the essences of the remaining herbs.

Bai Yuan's expression was intensely focused.

After all, this was still his first time forging a Xisui Pill; even though he was already among the top tier of intermediate alchemists, he still had to carefully control the temperature and timing, allowing no slightest mistake.

"Ding! Congratulations, host, on successfully forging the Xisui Pill. Reward: ten thousand Mentor Points."

Bai Yuan, in a pleasant mood, opened the alchemy furnace and took out three pure white pills that were scorching hot to ordinary people.

"Not bad, not bad, nine of them actually," Bai Yuan collected the Xisui Pills, then opened the attribute panel.

【Host: Bai Yuan】

【Cultivation: Foundation Establishment Early Stage】

【Item: Current Most Needed Treasure Chest】

【Special: Intermediate Alchemist, Intermediate Array Master, Intermediate Artifact Smith, Intermediate Talisman Master】

【Disciple Count: 20】

【Bound Disciples: Bai Yu, Wang Qiuer, Mu Junwu (Current binding limit: 3) (After binding, each time the disciple advances, the host also gains the same cultivation level.)】

【Mentor Points: 124000】

【Shop: Click to Open】

【Current Task 1: Forge Gold Yuan Pill, Reward: Senior Alchemist, 100,000 Mentor Points.】

【Current Task 2: Breakthrough Golden Core Stage, Reward: increase bound disciple limit by 7, 100,000 Mentor Points.】

【Current Task 3: Recruit 365 disciples (20 already recruited), Reward: Current Most Needed Treasure Chest, 1,000,000 Mentor Points.】

Bai Yuan looked at Current Task 1 and felt a slight spark of inspiration.

Relying solely on his own cultivation, forging a Gold Yuan Pill would be impossible, but using the Five Elements Array, it could be attempted.

But that is irrelevant; what matters is that the Transformative Pill appears to be a low‑grade pill of Tier Three, and once he becomes a Tier‑Three alchemist, he can forge freely.

Moreover, with the Ice and Fire Dual-Form Eye, Bai Yuan need not worry about lacking ingredients.

Because he only needs to find seedlings outside, then transplant them here to make them grow rapidly.

By then, however many Transformative Pills Bai Yuan has, he can recruit that many disciples in the Star Dou Great Forest.

Completing Task 3 then would be a breeze, wouldn't it?

That way, he could spend a million Mentor Points to purchase a fourth Five Elements Array Base, granting himself half a step toward God‑King strength.

Bai Yuan couldn't help feeling excited as he thought.

"Gu Yue Na, didn't you once complain I was too slow? Now I've found a way to quickly transform Soul Beasts into Demonic Beasts."

Gu Yue Na, who was quietly watching Bai Yu, immediately showed interest, shifting her gaze: "What method?"

Bai Yuan smiled and said, "I won't tell you."

Gu Yue Na's face darkened slightly; she unconsciously clenched her fists, suddenly wanting to strike.

Gu Yue Na had never thought anyone was so deserving of a beating.

Of course, she hadn't experienced much, and no Soul Beast had dared such a thing, but at this moment Gu Yue Na felt an irrepressible surge of anger.

Bai Yuan stored the alchemy furnace, flew his sword to Gu Yue Na's side, and quietly stared at the invisible red‑white "hot spring" junction.

Bai Yuan, as if he hadn't noticed Gu Yue Na's reaction, spoke as if nothing had happened: "Gu Yue Na, give me a few more dragon scales so I can forge additional dragon‑scale swords for survival."

He had once used it to kill Tang Hao, and Bai Yuan found himself somewhat addicted; after all, the feeling of slashing a strong foe with a single sword is incredibly exhilarating.

Gu Yue Na replied coldly, "No."

Bai Yuan, unsurprisingly, poked Gu Yue Na's waist and chuckled, "Are you angry?"

"Angry? Ha!" Gu Yue Na scornfully laughed.

Bai Yuan smiled, "Alright, I'll tell you: soon I'll be able to mass‑produce Transformative Pills, and whenever a Soul Beast appears, I can directly activate Spiritual Insight and transformation."

Gu Yue Na cast a doubtful glance, "You can forge Transformative Pills now?"

Earlier, Gu Yue Na had asked Bai Yuan how Bai Yu transformed, and the answer was that she took a Transformative Pill.

Then Gu Yue Na asked Bai Yuan how many were left, and he replied that he had none left.

Bai Yuan shook his head, "It will be ready after some time."

Gu Yue Na lightly nodded, "When we return to the Star Dou Great Forest, I'll give you all those dragon scales."

Bai Yuan nodded satisfactorily.

At that moment, he suddenly felt a surge within himself.

Bai Yuan instantly felt that he had become much stronger.

"Mid Foundation Establishment." Bai Yuan smiled faintly.

Wang Qiu'er came running over, grabbed Bai Yuan's hand, looked left and right for a moment, then asked: "Master Father, how did the senior martial sister's mother fall in there? She seems to be in great pain; let's quickly fish her out!"

After consuming Gazing at Autumn Water Dew, even though Wang Qiu'er's cultivation was only at the sixth layer of Qi Refining, she already possessed an extremely powerful divine sense.

Therefore, even though Bai Yuan could not see Bai Yu's figure, Wang Qiu'er could easily see her through the Ultimate Ice and Ultimate Fire.

That is precisely why Bai Yuan directly broke through.

Bai Yuan reached out and rubbed Wang Qiu'er's head, saying: "Qiu'er, rest assured, Xiao Yu is fine; how could I as her master let anything happen to her?"

"Alright..." Wang Qiu'er showed a hint of tension on her smiling face.

the Star Dou Great Forest

A spatial rift silently appeared.

But strangely, this spatial rift was not due to the effect of the rules.

But any Title Douluo coming here can see that the world rules are desperately trying to mend this rift; no matter how hard the world rules strive, they cannot repair it.

It seems another strong energy is sustaining its existence, gradually making it larger and larger.

It is as if opening a passage.
