Chapter 176 - Chapter 176 The Labor of Alchemy

"Alright, as long as you have a plan."

After hearing Xu Yao's explanation, Qing Mu sighed and said.

For ordinary Soul Masters, it is impossible to achieve a title simply through cultivation. Even a divine servant like Poseidon had traveled the continent.

While Xu Yao and Qing Tianfeng did receive resources from Qing Mu and undergo transformations, this only increased their chances of breaking through to the Title Douluo level, not guaranteed that they would become Title Douluo.

After all, this is Douluo No. 1 now, not Douluo No. 2 or Douluo No. 3. To become a Title Douluo, you need not only qualifications and resources, but also a certain amount of luck.

The only thing that can reliably propel someone to the title of Title Douluo is perhaps a mechanical, deus ex machina power like the Divine Test.

Then, Qingmu added a reminder: "Be careful. Although with your Soul King strength, the chances of an accident are already very low as long as you don't go to the core areas of the Soul Beast Forest, you still need to be careful and avoid any mishaps."

"Don't worry, we're not newbies. We know more about these things than you do."

Qing Tianfeng said confidently.

Immediately afterwards, Qing Mu escorted Qing Tianfeng and Xu Yao to the edge of Sunset Forest. After saying goodbye to Qing Mu, the two left the area.

As Qingmu watched the two figures leave, she murmured, "I hope Mom and Dad are alright. But with their Soul King strength, ordinary training should be more than enough for them. It's not like they're going to Death Valley or Slaughter City."

Then, Qingmu turned around and looked back at Sunset Forest.

Although Sunset Forest has far fewer high-level soul beasts than Star Dou Great Forest, it still has some. If you specifically seek out those soul beasts to level up, the efficiency may not be much lower than in Star Dou Great Forest.

"But before that, let's go to the Ice and Fire Yin-Yang Well first. I wonder if Lingling is still there?"

With that, Qingmu and Venusaur transformed into a streak of green light and disappeared from the spot.

The Ice and Fire Yin-Yang Eye is no longer as deserted as it used to be. In order to better develop the herbs within the Ice and Fire Yin-Yang Eye, Dugu Bo built a special house to serve as a research base for medicinal materials.

While Dugu Bo, Yang Wudi, and Ye Haitang were busy, the sisters Dugu Yan and Ye Lingling were also diligently cultivating.

In a secret room, Dugu Yan opened her eyes and said to Ye Lingling, "Lingling, I've broken through to level 54."

After completely resolving the issue of her martial soul, Dugu Yan faced no further obstacles in her cultivation and progressed rapidly. In just over six months, she advanced two levels, reaching level fifty-four.

Hearing this, Ye Lingling smiled and said, "Congratulations, Yanyan, you've leveled up again in such a short time."

However, Dugu Yan curled her lips upon hearing this.

"You're already level 55. I don't know how you did it. You've leveled up so fast. Isn't it said that support-type Soul Masters have a harder time cultivating than ordinary Soul Masters? I don't feel that at all."

Originally, Dugu Yan felt bad about being surpassed by Qing Mu, but fortunately, Qing Mu was no ordinary person, but a freak, so it was normal for him to be surpassed by her.

However, Dugu Yan did not expect that Ye Lingling could surpass her. Anyone who did not know the situation would think that the other party had accepted the sacrifice of a 100,000-year-old soul beast.

Upon hearing this, Ye Lingling said somewhat helplessly, "Actually, Yan Yan, you can also take the immortal herbs. That way, you might be able to advance to the Soul Emperor level very quickly."

Ye Lingling's level increased dramatically after consuming the Eight-Petaled Immortal Orchid, and it also accelerated her cultivation speed. Otherwise, even if she absorbed two top-grade soul bones, she would most likely not have reached the Soul King level, let alone level 55.

"Hmph! I get angry whenever you mention immortal herbs. Most of them have been taken by your Qingmu, and now I can't find any suitable ones for the time being."

Dugu Yan crossed her arms, pouted, and said somewhat unhappily.

Seeing this, Ye Lingling helplessly rubbed her forehead, unsure of what to do with her sister.

However, despite saying that, Ye Lingling knew that Dugu Yan was still grateful to Qing Mu.

After all, if Qing Mu hadn't solved the martial soul problems of Dugu Yan and Dugu Bo, Dugu Bo might have died much sooner.

Without Dugu Bo, a titled Douluo, to oversee things, the Dugu family's assets are highly likely to be lost. Even if they are preserved, how much will ultimately remain is uncertain.

As for Dugu Yan, being at the center of the vortex, her fate is highly likely to be unfavorable.

Soon, Dugu Yan seemed to have forgotten the previous unpleasantness and hugged Ye Lingling's hand, saying, "Lingling, let's go out and take a look. What if Grandpa Yang and your mother have invented a new elixir?"

Dugu Yan was quite interested in elixirs, because they could not only cure diseases but also accelerate cultivation.

Especially the Soul-Ascending Pill, Dugu Yan was very envious of its effect of guaranteeing a 100% level increase, and asked Dugu Bo for a few.

The reason she hasn't used it yet is that she plans to wait until she reaches a bottleneck before consuming it, so as to maximize the effects of the elixir.

"good."

Ye Lingling nodded. After a month of seclusion, she was also very curious about whether her mother had come up with anything new.

However, when they arrived at the place where the elixirs were being studied, the scene before them left them somewhat stunned.

A young man was sitting cross-legged on the ground, and in front of him was a toad with a fiery red flower bud. The bud emitted a rich light, as if something was being nurtured.

Who else could it be but Qingmu and Ivysaur?

Beside Qing Mu, Dugu Bo, Ye Haitang, and Yang Wudi stared intently at Ivysaur, as if trying to see through it.

At this moment, Qing Mu, who was using her mental power to control the pills and flames, felt somewhat helpless. She had originally come to find Ye Lingling, but she didn't expect to be captured by these three people to refine pills as soon as she arrived, and that this would last for several days.

Soon, the pill inside the Ivysaur flower bud was finished being refined. Qingmu used his telekinesis to move it into a jade bottle and handed it to the three of them, thus ending this pill refining session.

"Haha, when it comes to alchemy, you're the best!"

After Qing Mu finished refining the pills, Dugu Bo and the other two hurriedly stepped forward to inspect them. Upon seeing the pills in the jade bottles, they patted Qing Mu on the shoulder and laughed heartily.

Qingmu's pill refining efficiency is much faster than theirs. They use a pill refining furnace, which can only produce one batch a day, and nine out of ten batches explode. It is completely incomparable to Qingmu's Myriad Frog Grass pill refining method.

This is evidenced by the fact that Qingmu's achievements in the past few days have almost reached ten times that of the three of them over several months, and the quality is extremely high.

"Do you have any more pills that need refining? If not, I'm leaving," Qing Mu said, looking somewhat tired.
