There were many strange flowers and exotic plants in the mountain hollow, but Li Qing knew only a limited number. So, although Dugu Bo made some discoveries when he brought Dugu Yan down, he didn't say much.
"Dugu Bo, what kind of hellhole is this?"
Dugu Yan was a bit confused because the mountain hollow was full of water mist, making visibility worse than outside. Although it was also night outside, under the light of the stars and moon, it was not much different from daytime.
"Uh... never mind, I'll take you up."
Dugu Bo thought, wasn't evolving anywhere still evolving? This hazy water mist really made it better not to have come down.
"Wait a moment!"
Li Qing called out to Dugu Bo, and then briefly introduced the Nine-Grade Dragon Ganoderma lucidum to him.
"Another dragon?"
Dugu Bo was a bit confused. What exactly was this place? How could there be so many things containing the power of the dragon bloodline? Could it be the place where a true dragon fell?
Li Qing nodded.
"Alright!"
Dugu Bo also nodded in satisfaction. Whether their Dugu Family could prosper in the future depended on these things.
Returning to the top of the mountain hollow.
Dugu Bo took out the Earth Dragon Golden Melon and gave it to Dugu Yan. After learning that she could eat it directly, Dugu Yan quickly finished the Earth Dragon Golden Melon in no time.
Seeing her enter a refining state, Dugu Bo sat down next to Li Qing.
"What do you think is a good name for my new Martial Soul?"
Li Qing was startled, then said, "I haven't seen your new Martial Soul either, but I think it should be dragon-attributed. I think Poison Dragon or Bilin Dragon would both be fine."
"The former uses your Title as its name, implying that its starting point is with you."
"As for the latter, it takes the first character of Bilin Snake, which is considered its true origin. The specifics are up to you; call it whatever makes you happy."
Dugu Bo thought for a moment and said, "Then let's call it Poison Dragon."
A Martial Soul named after his own Title, even if he died in the future, his name and Title would be passed down through the ages with the Martial Soul. Just thinking about it was exciting.
Li Qing nodded.
Dugu Bo asked again, "Do you have any good suggestions for Yan Yan's third Spirit Ring?"
"Hmm?" Li Qing looked at him. "You're asking me?"
A dignified Title Douluo actually came to ask a seven-year-old child how to match his granddaughter's Spirit Rings. What was this guy thinking? Did he really think he was omnipotent?
Dugu Bo, however, said irritably, "Otherwise?"
"You kid don't look like much on the surface, but you definitely have something going on. There's no harm in listening to your opinion. If it doesn't work out, it's not too late to choose my own plan."
Li Qing asked, "What's your plan?"
Dugu Bo didn't hide anything and said directly, "Blood Poison Lizard. It satisfies both poison and strength attributes, and its claws are also exceptionally sharp."
Seeing that he seemed to have nothing more to say, Li Qing couldn't help but say, "You only have one plan?"
Dugu Bo smiled and said, "I know the habitat of a group of Blood Poison Lizards, so if you don't have a better suggestion, I can just go catch one and bring it back."
Blood Poison Lizard?
Li Qing thought for a long time before recalling its information. After all, it wasn't something he needed, so his memory wasn't very deep.
The Blood Poison Lizard is a gregarious Spirit Beast, but their individual combat power is very strong, with sharp claws and teeth, coupled with great strength.
Among Spirit Beasts of the same level, they have few rivals.
The most deadly thing is that their mouths contain lethal bacterial toxins. Once bitten, your blood will rapidly coagulate, and the consequences of blood coagulation go without saying.
In this sewer-like world, even a ninety-ninth level Title Douluo would only face death.
However, this toxin can be forced out through spirit power. After being poisoned, you just need to quickly disengage from combat and force the poison out. But the premise is that your enemy is willing to give you this chance.
Overall, it is indeed quite compatible with the Poison Dragon Martial Soul.
Li Qing nodded and said, "I don't think there's any problem, because even if there was something better, you'd have to find it. As it stands, there's nothing more suitable than it."
Dugu Bo nodded in satisfaction, showing an expression that seemed to say, 'This child is teachable.'
Li Qing: "..."
Turns out this damn guy wasn't expecting him to come up with a better option at all, but simply wanted him to approve of his choice.
Li Qing, feeling a bit speechless, couldn't be bothered to pay attention to him anymore and directly entered a cultivation state.
Time flowed by, and the sky gradually turned white. It wasn't until nearly noon that Dugu Yan completed her Martial Soul evolution. Clad in scales and possessing claws, she appeared even more valiant.
Her spirit power level also successfully reached level thirty.
"Li Qing, come on, let's fight."
After learning that she had reached level thirty, Dugu Bo immediately went to catch a Spirit Beast, while the overconfident Dugu Yan immediately challenged Li Qing, wanting to get revenge for that punch.
"Alright."
Li Qing also wanted to see how much she had improved, and he accepted the challenge without hesitation.
"Martial Soul Possession!"
Black wings grew from Li Qing's back, and his golden Spirit Ring and wisps of black smoke rose almost simultaneously. The black pupils in his eyes also faded away at that moment.
Leaving only the whites of his eyes.
"Hmm?"
Dugu Yan asked, "What's wrong with your eyes? I remember they weren't like this before?"
"Ah?"
Li Qing looked confused. What was wrong with his eyes?
Dugu Yan explained, "Your pupils have turned pure white, without any black at all. It looks really creepy. You didn't have a problem with your cultivation, did you?"
Saying this, she took out a bronze mirror and handed it to Li Qing.
Li Qing took it and looked, and it was true. While thinking, he quickly exited his Martial Soul Possession state and looked at his Raven, whose pupils had also turned pure white. He couldn't help but fall into deep thought.
He didn't need to think to know that this mutation was definitely caused by the Ice and Fire Refining Body.
The strange thing was that he didn't feel any abnormality, as if he had just purely changed his pupil color, but he knew this was impossible.
Pupil color wouldn't change inexplicably. His Martial Soul must have undergone an unknown mutation.
However, whether this mutation was beneficial or malicious, and how exactly it differed from before, he didn't know for the time being and needed to investigate carefully.
"Let's continue."
Li Qing suppressed the doubts in his heart, returned the mirror to Dugu Yan, and completed his Martial Soul Possession again.
"Then here I come."
Dugu Yan put away the mirror. As soon as her voice fell, her figure suddenly rushed out, and she threw a punch as she extended her hand.
Li Qing slightly turned his body and gathered strength to punch.
"Bang!"
A collision of pure strength. Dugu Yan retreated several steps, which made her feel extremely surprised.
However, Li Qing didn't give her time to think. With a flap of his wings, his figure shot out, directly performing a one-hundred-and-eighty-degree flip and a side kick.
In her haste, Dugu Yan could only cross her arms to block.
"Bang!"
Dugu Yan's figure retreated again, almost losing her balance. By the time she steadied herself, Li Qing had already ambushed her from behind and suddenly smashed a fist onto her lower back.
Even with the protection of scales, she felt the pain brought by the impact of the immense force, and her body flew directly forward.
Seeing that she was about to hit the ground face-first, Dugu Yan forcefully twisted her body in the air, then landed on her back, sliding for several meters before finally stopping.
No, why?
