Chapter 337: Double Happiness at the Door
The two women turned toward the source of the voice and immediately saw Yu Tianlin standing in the doorway with a smile on his face.
"Tianlin?!"
"Tianlin?!"
The two of them spoke at the same time.
Yu Rou was the first to react. Her face lit up with joy as she said, "Why did you come out so suddenly? Did you already break through?"
"That's right." Yu Tianlin smiled and nodded. "I just broke through to Rank 70, so naturally I came out of seclusion."
"Rank 70?!" Although she had already guessed as much, hearing Yu Tianlin confirm it still made the smile on Yu Rou's face spread uncontrollably. "As expected of my precious son! Becoming a Spirit Saint before even turning eighteen, you're far more outstanding than Tang Hao of the Clear Sky Clan was back then."
Tang Hao was the most famous genius Spirit Master Yu Rou knew of, yet even a genius like him could not compare to Yu Tianlin's cultivation speed.
Yu Tianlin himself was also full of emotion over his current cultivation level.
Rank 70. Once he obtained his seventh spirit ring, he would officially become a Spirit Saint, gain the Martial Soul True Body skill, and his Domain would also be greatly enhanced. With his current foundation, once he reached that point, matching a Titled Douluo would be no problem. He could truly be counted among the strong.
At that moment, Ye Lingling stepped forward and congratulated him. "Congratulations, Tianlin."
"Oh, Lingling too." Yu Rou finally recovered from the surprise of Yu Tianlin breaking through to Rank 70. Pulling Ye Lingling to her side, she said to Yu Tianlin, "While Tianlin was in seclusion cultivating, Lingling also broke through to Rank 60."
"I already noticed." Yu Tianlin slowly nodded. "Congratulations to Sister Lingling as well."
With Yu Tianlin's current mental force, he had already sensed Ye Lingling's spirit power cultivation the moment he entered, so he was not surprised.
Speaking of which, Ye Lingling was also under twenty years old. Reaching Rank 60 at her age was already extremely impressive, far superior to the three members of Spirit Hall's Golden Generation.
"Compared with you, Tianlin, I'm still far behind," Ye Lingling said softly.
The three of them exchanged a few joyful words. Before long, another voice came from the doorway.
"Hm? You all look quite happy today. Did you know in advance that I'd be coming back?"
The voice belonged to Yu Mingfeng.
Yu Tianlin's eyes lit up the moment he heard it, and he immediately turned around. "Dad, did you break through too?"
"You actually noticed it, Tianlin. Your perception really is sharp." Yu Mingfeng looked spirited and pleased with himself. "I just broke through to Rank 90 this morning. I came back right after reporting it to your grandfather."
Once spirit power cultivation reached Rank 90, obtaining the ninth spirit ring meant formally stepping into the Titled Douluo realm. A Titled Douluo was a peak existence anywhere on the Douluo Continent.
Take Dugu Bo for example. Even when he was weakened by his own poison and considered one of the weakest among Titled Douluo, the Heaven Dou Imperial Family still actively tried to win him over. That alone showed the status of a Titled Douluo on the continent.
"Speaking of which, being able to break through to the Titled Douluo realm this quickly is mostly thanks to you, Tianlin."
As he said this, Yu Mingfeng looked at Yu Tianlin with deep emotion.
Although Yu Mingfeng had always been confident that he could eventually break through to Titled Douluo, that would have required a great deal of time. Yet after consuming the medicinal herbs Yu Tianlin had brought back years ago, his cultivation speed had doubled.
If Yu Mingfeng had relied only on himself, it would have taken at least another ten years or more. Now, that time had been cut in half.
Yu Tianlin replied, "I'm also very happy that I could help Dad."
The Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan's fifth Titled Douluo was about to appear, and that person was his father. How could Yu Tianlin not be happy?
"Wait, Tianlin, why did you say 'too' just now?"
Yu Mingfeng suddenly realized something. When Yu Tianlin had asked, "Did you break through too?" that "too" clearly meant something.
Before Yu Tianlin could explain, Yu Rou eagerly cut in, "Of course. Besides you, Tianlin also broke through today!"
Both husband and son had achieved major breakthroughs on the same day. It truly was double happiness arriving at the door.
"Good! As expected of my son!" Yu Mingfeng's eyes brightened. "Call Tianheng over too. Let's all celebrate together!"
Ever since graduating from the academy after the tournament, Yu Tianlin and Yu Tianheng had moved out of the family residence and were living separately, so someone had to be sent specifically to call Yu Tianheng over.
Yu Tianheng had broken through to Rank 60 and obtained his sixth spirit ring half a year ago. Although his cultivation speed could not compare to Yu Tianlin's, it was still considered very impressive.
Although the current atmosphere on the continent was tense, meaning Yu Mingfeng's breakthrough to Rank 90 could not be openly celebrated on a large scale, there was no issue with having a lively family celebration among themselves.
After a cheerful evening, the matter of obtaining spirit rings was naturally put on the agenda.
Yu Tianlin naturally had to go find his walking seventh spirit ring, the hundred-thousand-year Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon, Yun Xi. As for Yu Mingfeng, he definitely needed a high-year Dragon-type Spirit Beast.
At first glance, it seemed that both father and son could simply head to Thunder Gorge to obtain their spirit rings. But that was not actually the case.
Because the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan's recent growth had been so rapid, with more and more Spirit Saints and higher-level experts appearing, the pressure on Thunder Gorge had already become somewhat excessive.
For the sake of sustainable development, they naturally could not keep exploiting Thunder Gorge so aggressively. Therefore, whenever a disciple of the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan broke through to a high level, they would specifically take a detour to the Star Dou Great Forest to search for a suitable Spirit Beast instead.
So Yu Mingfeng's destination was naturally the Star Dou Great Forest. The Spirit Beast resources there were astonishingly rich, with all kinds of species present, even including hundred-thousand-year Spirit Beasts. There was no need to worry about finding a suitable target.
As for Yu Tianlin, the Spirit Beast he needed was in Thunder Gorge, so he still had to go there.
Then there was Ye Lingling. Although she truly wanted to go hunt Spirit Beasts with Yu Tianlin, unfortunately Thunder Gorge was mainly inhabited by thunder-attributed Spirit Beasts, none of which were suitable for her. So she still could not go there with him.
However, Ye Lingling was assigned to Yu Mingfeng's side, and Yu Mingfeng was naturally very happy to take along the girl who liked his son.
Thus, the arrangements for hunting Spirit Beasts were settled.
Yu Yuanzhen would take Yu Tianlin to Thunder Gorge to hunt the hundred-thousand-year Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon, Yun Xi. Yu Luomian would take Yu Mingfeng and Ye Lingling to the Star Dou Great Forest to look for suitable targets. As for the remaining two Grand Elders at the Titled Douluo level, they would stay behind to guard the Clan in case of any unexpected developments.
With everyone's tasks divided, they officially set out.
