Dugu Bo used his soul power to disperse the flying pool water, then looked with delight at Xiao Yu and Wo Long, who were now glowing with golden light. Xiao Yu's golden wings fluttered gently as he hovered in the air, looking almost like a deity.
Feeling the surge of soul power within him, Xiao Yu murmured to himself. However, he knew that his soul power had likely increased far beyond Level 30. Only after obtaining his third soul ring would he be able to determine his true strength.
Xiao Yu glanced at Wo Long beside him. Wo Long's changes weren't too drastic, aside from growing about a third larger. The golden patterns on its body had become more radiant, and its scales had shifted from a pale purple to a mix of red, blue, and purple.
Its long, sturdy claws were now blue on one side and red on the other.
Through their connection, Xiao Yu could sense that, with the help of the two immortal herbs, Wo Long could now unleash attacks of three different attributes: light, fire, and ice!
Although Wo Long's appearance hadn't changed much, Xiao Yu knew that its actual combat power had risen several levels.
"Xiao Yu, how do you feel?"
Dugu Bo called out from the shore.
"I feel amazing. I've reached Level 30, but I'll need to obtain another soul ring to know exactly how much I've improved!"
Xiao Yu flew over to Dugu Bo as he spoke.
"Excellent, impressive. It seems your gains are substantial. The six-hour wait was worth it!"
Xiao Yu didn't comment on Dugu Bo's statement.
In truth, Xiao Yu had only needed two hours to forge his Ice-Fire Body. The remaining time had been spent diving deep into the pool, searching for the legendary remains of the Ice and Fire Dragon Kings, hoping to make further improvements.
Although he had found them after diving for two hours, he couldn't take anything. A consciousness had entered his mind, telling him to return when he reached the Soul Sage level.
"That consciousness must have been the lingering will of the Ice and Fire Dragon Kings... Did they sense the Holy Dragon bloodline within me and decide to guide me? Well, I'm already over Level 30. It shouldn't take long to reach Soul Sage. I'll find out then."
Xiao Yu murmured to himself.
"Grandpa Dugu, I'm done absorbing. It's your turn now!"
"Alright. Yan Yan started three hours ago. I found her an immortal herb that can enhance the Jade Phosphorus Snake's bloodline. Keep an eye on her for me."
After entrusting everything to Xiao Yu, Dugu Bo left to absorb his immortal herb.
This time, he was going to absorb the Earth Dragon Golden Melon.
As long as his bloodline improved, the poison that had plagued him for so long would be completely resolved.
Time flew by, and an hour later, Xiao Yu, who had been meditating, sensed something unusual from Dugu Yan's direction.
He immediately opened his eyes and saw that Dugu Yan had finished absorbing the herb and was now adjusting to her greatly increased soul power.
"How do you feel, Yan Yan?"
Seeing Xiao Yu, Dugu Yan immediately rushed into his arms.
Her ample chest pressed tightly against Xiao Yu as she whispered softly.
"Great. Grandpa picked an immortal herb for me. After absorbing it, my Jade Phosphorus Snake martial soul has evolved toward a dragon!"
Xiao Yu and Dugu Yan held each other, sharing their experiences.
However, as time passed, Xiao Yu, feeling the softness in his arms, found his previously restrained bloodline stirring once more.
Dugu Yan also noticed something.
Hearing Xiao Yu's voice, Dugu Yan gave him a seductive look.
Then, with a slight change in expression, she glanced in her grandfather's direction.
Seeing that he was still absorbed in his herb and hadn't noticed anything, she led Xiao Yu to a secluded corner.
Under the dim light of the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well, Dugu Yan, now stripped of her clothes, revealed her perfect figure in the flickering shadows.
Especially after consuming the immortal herb and undergoing a bloodline evolution, Dugu Yan's figure had improved even further, surpassing even Liu Erlong's mature charm. As she sat down, Xiao Yu immediately felt an overwhelming sense of fullness.
"Xiao Yu, I don't know why, but ever since my martial soul evolved, I've started to enjoy this kind of thing..."
Dugu Yan's seductive voice whispered in Xiao Yu's ear.
An hour later, Dugu Yan, looking slightly tired, handed Xiao Yu some water.
Xiao Yu, in turn, helped her clean up.
Looking at her perfect body so close, Xiao Yu felt as if he were caressing a piece of flawless jade, gentle and thorough.
"Alright, Xiao Yu, you've been touching and kissing me for almost two hours. Haven't you had enough? Even though you've had your fun, I haven't. Once my bloodline stabilizes, I'll make sure to have a proper battle with you!"
Dugu Yan's slender arms wrapped around Xiao Yu's neck as she spoke with a radiant smile.
With Dugu Bo nearby, Dugu Yan didn't want to make too much noise. Although the thrill of almost being discovered was exciting, she didn't want her grandfather to witness this.
So, she decided to let Xiao Yu have his fun first, saving her own for later. Otherwise, if they both went at it, who knew how long it would take?
"Yan Yan, judging by your aura, you've improved quite a bit, haven't you?"
The two chatted as they dressed.
"Yes, I've gained eight levels. I'm now at Level 40! Once I get another soul ring, I'll become a Soul Ancestor!"
Dugu Yan said excitedly.
Afterward, the two sat by the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well, quietly sharing their thoughts. Although Xiao Yu's hands were restless, Dugu Yan returned the favor, targeting Xiao Yu's lower regions. Soon, the two were lost in each other's gazes.
However, a sudden surge of power snapped them out of their daze.
If it weren't for this surge, they might have lost themselves again!
Xiao Yu shook the water off his hands.
Dugu Yan gave him a firm squeeze before standing up.
They both looked in the direction of Dugu Bo.
Inside the stone hut, Dugu Bo had finished absorbing the herb and stood up.
As he opened his eyes, his originally emerald-green irises had turned a deep jade color, and his aura surged dramatically.
