At this time.
Liam had been swallowed by the Jade Phosphorus Snake for a long time, finally finding an opportunity. He flipped over, subdued the Jade Phosphorus Snake beneath him, and shouted sternly:
"Snake Demon, I need your help to cultivate."
Dugu Yan:???
"Hiss!"
"Your Martial Soul, how..."
Liam directly interrupted:
"Didn't I tell you before? My Kun Peng Martial Soul evolved and became very big!"
[Congratulations Dugu Yan, you triggered a hidden quest reward and gained: Ten Levels of Soul Power Increase.]
Dugu Yan fell silent for a moment and said:
"Wait a moment first!"
"My Jade Phosphorus Snake Martial Soul and your Kun Peng Martial Soul have a significant difference in rank. If we cultivate the Martial Soul Fusion Skill, they must get to know each other for a while."
"Okay!"
Liam released other Soul Skills with both hands and said, "That's natural!"
"My Kun Peng Martial Soul is very spiritual. Once your Jade Phosphorus Snake Martial Soul adapts, we'll start cultivating the Martial Soul Fusion Skill."
"Before that, I can use some Soul Skills first to help you understand and adapt to my Martial Soul as quickly as possible."
"Okay!"
Dugu Yan responded softly. After witnessing Liam's Soul Skills, she was instantly exhausted and panting:
"Cultivate the Martial Soul Fusion Skill!"
"Kun Peng Martial Soul Fusion Skill - Startled Snake Entering Grass!"
"Jade Phosphorus Snake Martial Soul Fusion Skill - Snake Mouth Sewing Needle!"
"Kun Peng Martial Soul Fusion Skill - Flying Bird Startling Snake!"
"Jade Phosphorus Snake Martial Soul Fusion Skill - Pen Moving Like Dragon and Snake!"
"Kun Peng Martial Soul Fusion Skill - Once Bitten by a Snake, Afraid of a Rope for Ten Years."
...
Outside.
Ye Lingling's face showed worry as she said:
"Sister Nana, do you think the snake will eat itself to death?"
Hu Liena said exasperatedly:
"What silly things are you saying? If the snake is full, aren't there still the two of us?"
"Huh?"
Ye Lingling said with a bewildered look:
"What does this have to do with us? We don't eat Soul Beasts. If the snake is full, how can we help?"
"What did you say?"
Hu Liena was bewildered by what she heard. Following Ye Lingling's gaze, she saw the Phoenix-Tailed Crested Serpent swallowing another Soul Beast whose Soul Ring had been absorbed by Ye Lingling.
"Whoosh...!"
Hu Liena exasperatedly pinched Ye Lingling: "So you were talking about Wealth!"
Ye Lingling said speechlessly, "Who else would I be talking about if not Wealth? My heavens! Sister Nana, you didn't think I was talking about Yanyan, did you?"
Hu Liena pouted, "Otherwise? Hey, what you said makes sense. Is Wealth a bit too greedy?"
"I think it seems pretty good. Maybe it really can follow us as a mount. But if it keeps eating like this, swallowing another 60,000-year Soul Beast corpse tomorrow, it really might eat itself to death!"
Ye Lingling said, somewhat conflicted:
"What should we do then?"
Hu Liena picked at her ear and muttered:
"If you ask me, let it eat itself to death. It eats so loudly, it doesn't consider our feelings at all!"
Phoenix-Tailed Crested Serpent:???
Uh.
Ye Lingling looked at Hu Liena with a complex expression. Sister! Can't we be serious for a bit?
Spirit Hall.
Bibi Dong saw the diary entry notification, and her expression also instantly became complicated.
Dugu Yan!
Here's another one taking a shortcut. This reward is another direct increase of thirty levels. It's truly enviable!
Nana, Teacher has been waiting for a long time.
When exactly are you coming back? When are you going to bring Teacher a reward? You little ingrate, you can't forget Teacher!
Bibi Dong got angry just thinking about it. She kicked off the blanket with one foot, and the full spring scenery in the courtyard couldn't be contained!
A pair of beautiful legs stuck out.
Soto City Spirit Hall Branch.
Huo Wu was currently clenching her fists, saying indignantly, "Detestable Liam!"
"Detestable Dugu Yan!"
"They said they would continue writing about Yu Xiaogang. I stayed up late waiting to read it, but I didn't expect them to show us this instead?"
"So annoying!"
"Aunt Ling Yuan, I also really want thirty levels of Soul Power!"
Ling Yuan hugged Huo Wu's slender waist and comforted her, "Listen to older sister. The water here is too deep. You're still young and can't handle it. Let older sister do it!"
"Huh?"
Huo Wu said with a puzzled expression:
"Aunt Ling Yuan, do you know a way to obtain thirty levels of Soul Power?"
Ling Yuan smiled and said, "Probably. But Qian Renxue didn't tell me the details. I need to ask Nana later!"
"Oh no!"
"Aunt Ling Yuan, quickly tell me, quickly tell me." Huo Wu immediately became excited, hugging Ling Yuan and acting spoiled frantically, rubbing against her!
"Oh~"
"You brat!"
Ling Yuan said exasperatedly:
"Stop messing around with me quickly. I just told you the water here is too deep, you're still young and can't handle it. Older sister has to do it!"
"Hmph!"
Huo Wu sat up angrily, pouting in defiance and not speaking.
Ling Yuan's body couldn't help but tremble slightly. She said softly, "Wait until older sister figures out how deep the water is, then I'll tell you, okay?"
"It's a deal!"
The next day.
After Liam got up, he walked out of the tent and saw Ye Lingling had already started absorbing her seventh Soul Ring. He began to think.
The diary rewards are all god-bestowed Soul Rings, so they don't increase Soul Power. But Ye Lingling absorbing a Soul Beast's Soul Ring means her Soul Power is also about to soar.
After this wave, she'll probably reach level seventy-five!
Heartbreaking.
When Hu Liena saw Liam come out, she gave him a glare, got up, and went into the tent.
Dugu Yan felt someone approaching and said, feeling a bit flustered, "Oh no! Why are you still coming?"
"Cough cough."
Hu Liena cleared her throat and teased, "It seems our Yanyan was severely bullied."
Dugu Yan heard Hu Liena's words, turned around, and said with a blush:
"Sister Nana, you're so annoying!"
Hu Liena pinched Dugu Yan's flushed cheek and muttered, "I wonder who's annoying? You made older sister itchy all night."
"I'm telling you something serious. Later when I go out, I'll say that you've completed the God Inheritance task, your Soul Power has increased from level forty to level seventy, and we can conveniently help you hunt for three Soul Rings."
"Oh, that's right!"
Dugu Yan instantly became extremely happy when she heard this.
"I'm level seventy!"
"If my Grandpa knew, he would definitely be shocked speechless, hahahaha!"
Hu Liena pouted and instructed:
"The God Inheritance has three trials. The first trial is finding a good man, the second trial is breaking through level fifty, and the third trial is breaking through level sixty. The three rewards combined increased your level to seventy."
"Remember what I said. Don't let the cat out of the bag later."
Dugu Yan nodded, then said, somewhat conflicted:
"Sister Nana, will Liam believe it?"
"I feel like if this gets out, not a single person on the entire Continent would believe it. What do you think?"
Hu Liena chuckled:
"Why do you care if he believes it or not?"
"Besides, you don't actually think he believed the God Inheritance we mentioned before, do you?"
"Anyway, you don't need to worry so much. Liam isn't an idiot. He definitely knew early on that we were hiding something. The fact that he didn't ask means he also trusts us."
