Dugu Bo excitedly took a step forward and stood in front of Dugu Yan, grinning from ear to ear:
"Level 49!"
He actually reached the peak of level 49!
"Just one step away from becoming a Soul King!"
"Moreover, this soul power is extremely solid, without any sign of being superficial!"
"Yanyan, our Dugu family has really struck it lucky this time! May our ancestors bless us!"
Dugu Bo was so excited that he danced with joy, and was about to take his granddaughter out for a celebration, and ask her if she was feeling unwell.
"Yanyan, quickly put away your martial spirit, let Grandpa take a look at you..."
However, before he could finish speaking, Dugu Bo's voice abruptly stopped.
Suddenly, without warning, Dugu Yan, who had been standing perfectly still, began to move.
She didn't retract her martial spirit; instead, her slender, supple waist suddenly twisted strangely to the left.
Immediately afterwards, she raised her arms and struck a strange pose that was both extremely alluring and full of power.
"Um?"
Dugu Bo was taken aback:
"Yanyan, are you... dancing to celebrate?"
"No, no, Grandpa!"
At this moment, Dugu Yan's pretty face was filled with terror.
She watched as her right hand rose, gently caressed her collarbone, and then slid down the lines of her arm.
"My body...it started moving on its own!"
I can't control my hands!
And my back!
Dugu Yan screamed in panic, but her body seemed to have a mind of its own.
On that scorched earth, cat-like steps began to appear.
Every now and then she would sway her hips, revealing a slender, serpentine waist that made one's blood boil.
Although the movements were somewhat clumsy, they possessed an indescribable...
Stylish?
"Although her body is a bit delicate, her serpentine waist is really powerful when she twists it."
"Perfect flexibility, looks like you'll be able to unlock a lot of high-difficulty moves in the future."
At this moment, within Dugu Yan's spiritual sea, Yu Nan was controlling this body.
It's like test driving a new car, twisting and turning here and there.
He completely ignored Dugu Bo's ghostly expression and Dugu Yan's own terror.
"Hmm, your neural reaction speed is good, and your muscle coordination is perfect."
"As expected of a body modified by my Poison Dragon Essence."
Yu Nan nodded in satisfaction.
After this simple "physical test," Yu Nan has determined that he has absolute and supreme authority over this body.
He can take over the account anytime he wants.
"Alright, test over."
Seeing that the grandfather and grandson outside were almost paralyzed with fear, Yu Nan felt that it was about time.
If they keep playing like this, Dugu Yan will probably develop psychological trauma.
"Let's return your body to you first, so you and your grandson can recover from this huge surprise (or shock)."
With a thought, Yu Nan instantly severed control over his body, and his soul once again sank into the depths of his spiritual sea.
outside world.
Dugu Yan, who was twisting her waist uncontrollably, suddenly stiffened, and the feeling of being controlled vanished instantly.
"Huff... huff..."
Dugu Yan's legs went weak, and she almost collapsed to the ground, panting heavily with cold sweat on her forehead.
"Stop...it's stopped?"
Still shaken, she touched her arms and legs to make sure she had truly regained control.
Dugu Bo was also completely bewildered, looking at his granddaughter:
"Yanyan, what...what happened just now?"
"Could it be that his soul power increased too quickly, causing him to suffer a qi deviation?"
Dugu Yan shook her head blankly. The feeling she had just experienced was so vivid, it was as if... another person was living inside her body.
But at this moment, that feeling vanished without a trace, as if it were truly an illusion.
The grandfather and grandson exchanged a glance, both seeing deep shock and lingering fear in each other's eyes.
Everything that happened today was so exciting.
From encountering a 200,000-year-old ferocious beast, to the beast's voluntary sacrifice, to the evolution of the martial soul and the surge in soul power, and finally the loss of control over the body...
All of this needs time to process.
Dugu Bo took a deep breath, forcibly suppressing the turmoil in his heart.
Regardless of what caused that bizarre loss of body control just now, the tangible benefits right before our eyes are undeniable.
Looking at his granddaughter's refreshed spirit, Dugu Bo's eyes were full of anticipation:
"Yanyan, although your soul power has increased dramatically, remember not to be complacent."
"Come on, show Grandpa your soul skill."
"Especially... the skill that the 100,000-year-old soul ring granted you!"
When Dugu Bo said the words "ten thousand years", his voice trembled slightly.
That's a legendary 100,000-year soul ring!
Throughout the entire Douluo Continent, there are only a handful of Title Douluos who possess a 100,000-year soul ring, let alone Yan Yan, who is merely a Soul Master!
(Dugu Bo was unaware of the difference between a 100,000-year and a 200,000-year soul ring, so he simply called it a 100,000-year one.)
"Um!"
Dugu Yan nodded obediently.
Although the loss of control just now left her feeling a little scared.
But the powerful energy surging within her made her eager to release it.
"Martial Soul, Possess!"
With a delicate shout.
A burst of purplish-gold light erupted once more, and a gigantic phantom of a poisonous dragon appeared and disappeared behind her.
Immediately afterwards, two yellows, one purple, and one red!
Four spirit rings slowly rose from beneath Dugu Yan's feet.
Especially the last one, the fourth soul ring, which was as red as blood and even faintly shone with a purple-gold luster.
The moment it appeared, a terrifying, suffocating pressure swept across the entire area.
The already scorched earth around them cracked even more under this oppressive force!
"Fourth Soul Skill—"
Dugu Yan took a deep breath, and the scarlet soul ring suddenly shone brightly.
"Poison Dragon - Purgatory Breath!"
Roar—!!!
With a high-pitched dragon roar, the phantom of the poisonous dragon behind Dugu Yan suddenly opened its huge mouth.
A purplish-gold pillar of fire, two meters in diameter, shot out like a laser cannon!
Rumble!
Wherever the pillar of fire passed, the air was instantly burned through, producing a piercing explosion.
A boulder the size of a house, not far away, didn't even have a chance to shatter the moment it came into contact with the pillar of purple-gold fire.
It melted silently, like a candle, into a pool of magma emitting poisonous smoke!
Sizzle sizzle—
The lava landed and continued to corrode the ground, instantly burning out a bottomless hole.
"Hiss—what a domineering poisonous fire!"
Dugu Bo gasped, his eyelids twitching wildly.
This is no ordinary flame.
This is clearly dragon flame infused with extremely corrosive and toxic substances!
To touch it is to die; to be touched it is to perish!
The power of this attack is so great that even an ordinary Soul Emperor wouldn't dare to take it head-on!
However, Dugu Yan's performance was not over yet.
A blush of excitement appeared on Dugu Yan's face as she looked at Dugu Bo and said:
"Grandpa, a 100,000-year soul ring usually grants two soul skills."
"Besides the attack soul skill I just used, this soul ring also gave me a... domain-type skill!"
