The mont this idea appeared, Yun Yuan continued to think more deeply. He felt that his idea did have a certain degree of feasibility.
But it was only a certain level of feasibility. After all, the Douluo Continent was not like the neighboring Doupo Continent, where the alchemy system was well-developed.
Moreover, even if he understood how to refine pills, how would he use immortal herbs for it? How should different immortal herbs be combined to produce the most perfect pill he needed?
All of these problems were challenges Yun Yuan would have to overco.
There were many difficulties, but once he overca them, the rewards would be extrely rich. If the thod of refining pills with immortal herbs succeeded, he might even be able to leap across two major realms.
"Such a dilemma… should I try refining pills with immortal herbs or not?"
Not long after, Yun Yuan shook his head and temporarily set the idea aside. Right now was not the ti to think about such things.
At the very least, he had to find the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well first. Otherwise, no matter how many ideas he had, without immortal herbs, it would all be aningless.
The only real use of immortal herbs for him was likely to increase his soul power level. As for evolving his martial soul or enhancing his talent, he did not hold much hope.
After all, his martial soul was too strong, and his talent too high. Immortal Herbs alone were not enough to change that.
Putting these thoughts aside, Yun Yuan decided to focus most of his ti on soul power ditation.
His current soul power level had already reached rank eighteen. He was only two ranks away from breaking through to Soul Grandmaster and obtaining his second soul ring.
A few days later, after morizing the Record of Myriad Ancient Precious Herbs completely and transcribing it into a new book, Yun Yuan returned the original to Yue Guan and focused fully on cultivating his soul power.
Three months later.
At the peak behind the Pope's Palace, inside Yun Yuan's palace.
At this mont, Yun Yuan was ditating. Suddenly, the aura around him surged.
Not long after, once he stabilized his soul power fluctuations, he slowly opened his eyes, which were filled with excitent.
"Rank twenty… I can finally obtain my second soul ring."
After three months of ditation, his soul power had risen from rank eighteen to rank twenty. He had beco a quasi–Soul Grandmaster. With just one more soul ring, he would officially step into the Soul Grandmaster realm.
Moreover, during these three months—or rather, ever since discovering the effects of Whale Rubber—he would occasionally consu it to strengthen his physique.
Now, his physical strength was comparable to that of a beast martial soul Soul Elder. Even absorbing a two-thousand-year soul ring would not be impossible.
Thinking of this, Yun Yuan pushed open the palace doors and headed toward the Pope's Palace. He wanted to share this joy with Qian Xunji and also arrange a ti to obtain his second soul ring.
After a while, Yun Yuan appeared inside the Pope's Palace. At this mont, Qian Xunji was still busy handling Spirit Hall affairs.
Spirit Hall was currently flourishing. Above, Qian Daoliu presided over it, intimidating the world and standing at the peak of soul masters.
Below, Yun Yuan's heaven-defying talent was enough to suppress the future of the soul master world. As the Pope, how could Qian Xunji afford to slack off?
Seeing Yun Yuan arrive, Qian Xunji set aside his work, slightly puzzled.
Had Yun Yuan encountered a problem in cultivation?
With this thought, Qian Xunji stood up and instantly appeared beside Yun Yuan, asking patiently:
"Xiao Yuan, have you co to consult your teacher about cultivation issues?"
Hearing this, Yun Yuan shook his head slightly and then released his soul power aura.
"Teacher, look—I've broken through to the Soul Grandmaster."
Hearing Yun Yuan's words and sensing his aura, Qian Xunji was deeply shocked. His disciple's talent in ditation was too extraordinary.
After obtaining his first soul ring, his expectation had been for Yun Yuan to break through to Soul Grandmaster before the age of eight.
Yet not even a year had passed, and this outstanding disciple had already reached Soul Grandmaster. This cultivation speed was truly terrifying.
"Good, good, good!"
Qian Xunji exclaid three tis in succession, showing just how excited he was.
Then, he imdiately understood Yun Yuan's purpose in coming. It was clear to discuss the timing of acquiring his soul ring.
"Xiao Yuan, since you have already broken through to Soul Grandmaster, in three days—no, tomorrow. Tomorrow, I will personally accompany you to the Star Dou Great Forest to obtain your second soul ring."
After confirming the ti, Yun Yuan left the Pope's Palace and waited for the next day.
Every ti he obtained a soul ring, Yun Yuan felt especially excited because it ant he had stepped into another level.
Watching himself grow stronger was a kind of joy. Now, he could sowhat understand why those old monsters of the cultivation world would go into seclusion for countless years just to break through.
The joy of increasing one's cultivation was indescribable.
That night, inside Yun Yuan's palace.
Bibi Dong suddenly rushed in, staring at Yun Yuan in disbelief.
"Junior brother, how did you break through to Soul Grandmaster already?"
She had just learned from their teacher, Qian Xunji, that Yun Yuan had broken through. No one knew how despairing she had felt at that mont.
Her current soul power level was only at rank fifteen. It would take her more than a year to reach Soul Grandmaster.
By then, at Yun Yuan's cultivation speed, wouldn't he already be a Soul Elder?
That would be completely unreasonable.
Both of them had innate full soul power. Why was his cultivation speed on an entirely different level from hers? She could not understand.
Seeing Bibi Dong's defeated expression, Yun Yuan grinned and reached out to ruffle her hair, beginning to tease her.
"Senior sister, your junior brother trains so diligently every day. Breaking through to Soul Grandmaster is only natural, isn't it?"
"As the saying goes, heaven rewards diligence. You reap what you sow. If you can't break through, maybe you should reflect on yourself. Have you truly been working hard enough?"
Of course, Yun Yuan's reasoning was nonsense. His cultivation speed was already beyond what any soul master on the Douluo Continent could match.
There was only one way to surpass him, and that was to cheat. Otherwise, it was impossible.
Hearing Yun Yuan's words, Bibi Dong counted on her fingers. After a few seconds, she said with a wronged expression:
"Junior brother, I admit you work very hard… but even if I spent all my ti cultivating, I still couldn't catch up to you."
"This definitely isn't my problem. It's just that your cultivation speed is too fast. It's not that I'm not working hard."
Seeing that Bibi Dong's reasoning was still clear, Yun Yuan smiled and couldn't help but praise her:
"Mm, senior sister, it seems you're not that foolish after all. I thought you'd really believe ."
Realizing Yun Yuan had been teasing her, Bibi Dong flushed red with anger, puffed her cheeks, clenched her small fists, and punched his chest as she complained:
"You bad junior brother, always tricking your senior sister!"
