Splash!
Red and blue spring water splashed onto the shore, landing on the Magma Ape King's corpse.
The flesh touched by the blue spring quickly froze to death.
The parts that came into contact with the red spring immediately emitted waves of meaty fragrance.
Even though it had been active around volcanic craters,
it still couldn't withstand the extreme temperatures of the Yin Yang Well of Ice and Fire!
"He just went down like that?"
Jin Yue'er's eyes held a hint of regret along with curiosity.
"Grandfather, how did that monkey head explode?"
"I didn't see it either, I didn't even detect any Soul Power fluctuations."
Golden Crocodile Douluo shook his head.
Meanwhile, a strange light flashed in Qian Renxue's eyes.
She recalled those iron tubes and iron pellets stored in Ye Tian's Soul Guidance Device.
"Then can grandfather move that monkey away?"
Jin Yue'er suddenly changed the subject.
Under Golden Crocodile Douluo's peculiar gaze, she said matter-of-factly, "Anyway, that monkey is useless now, it's just taking up space."
"This..."
Golden Crocodile Douluo's mouth twitched slightly.
His granddaughter was being a bit too bold! Even if he, as her grandfather, would indulge her, wasn't Yue'er afraid that Little Xue might object?
"..."
Qian Renxue had already clenched her fists.
She glared fiercely at Jin Yue'er and quickly reached for her hair.
"Ah—!"
"Sister Xue, Yue'er is doing this for your own good..."
Jin Yue'er shook her head, dodging Qian Renxue's grasp, and quickly hid behind Golden Crocodile Douluo, hurriedly explaining:
"Sister Xue, don't you think Ye Tian is being guarded against you? You didn't get to see much before... Yue'er just wants you to see more, don't you want to look?"
"You... you're talking nonsense!"
Qian Renxue scolded incoherently.
She did regret having seen less than Jin Yue'er earlier, but she wasn't so base as to scheme against Ye Tian in this manner.
"I'll tear your mouth apart!"
"Ah—!"
"..."
——
Time slowly drifted away in the steam rising above the spring.
Splash—!
When sunset arrived and the mist turned orange-yellow.
Finally, the sound of water echoed again from behind the Magma Ape King's corpse.
Six pairs of eyes simultaneously turned toward the corpse.
Jin Yue'er's left eye now sported a black eye.
She crouched on the ground, tearfully drawing circles.
Splash—
Water splashed, and rustling sounds continuously arose.
Only when a figure leaped out and landed on the Magma Ape King's corpse did Qian Renxue finally breathe a sigh of relief, quickly standing up.
"Success!"
"Sorry to make everyone worry."
Ye Tian had already put on his Taoist Robe, his feet touching the ground.
Just like that—with auspicious clouds supporting his Incipient Pill Spirit above his head, and stepping on two purple and one black Spirit Rings—he slowly walked forward.
Looking at Qian Renxue and the others before him, the smile on his face couldn't hide his surprise.
This ten-thousand-year Spirit Ring was truly too cost-effective!
The effects were unexpectedly good.
"Truly incredible, he's actually a level 38 Soul Venerable!!"
Dugu Bo couldn't help but exclaim in amazement.
After all, just a few days ago when they first met, Ye Tian was only a level 28 Soul Grandmaster! The Immortal Herb truly possessed the power to seize the creation of heaven and earth! Dugu Bo was already beginning to anticipate what kind of improvement Dugu Yan would achieve after taking the Pill refined from the Immortal Herb!
"Level 38?!"
Jin Yue'er threw away the branch in her hand, looking at Ye Tian in pleasant surprise.
He immediately broke into a sprint toward them.
"Yue'er!"
Watching her best friend's retreating figure, Qian Renxue stamped her foot in frustration.
It seemed that punch earlier...
Still hadn't taught Yue'er much of a lesson!
But she deserved it—who told Jin Yue'er to grab her in such sensitive spots?
With a cold snort, Qian Renxue immediately gave chase.
As Jin Yue'er came rushing over, Ye Tian's eyes showed both helplessness and a hint of amusement.
He knew exactly why Jin Yue'er was in such a hurry—she wanted something from him.
However,
Before Ye Tian's mischievous thoughts could wander far, his expression turned peculiar.
Whoosh!
Jin Yue'er leaped forward and wrapped him in a tight embrace.
"Oof... Yue'er, take it easy, will you?"
Holding the warm, soft figure in his arms, even with his physique strengthened to Soul Saint level, Ye Tian felt slightly winded from the impact.
If Jin Yue'er had been a bit more developed...
At least there would have been some cushioning.
Supporting Jin Yue'er by the waist, Ye Tian noticed her dark circles and asked with concern, "What happened to your eyes?"
"Ah, never mind that!"
"Hurry! Let me taste your third Soul Skill!"
Jin Yue'er bounced up and down excitedly.
She had already forgotten about Qian Renxue's bullying—after all, she hadn't really lost out.
It was just like practicing her Crocodile Claw technique a couple times.
"Ahem, of course you can try it, but calm down a bit, alright?"
Ye Tian held Jin Yue'er still with mild exasperation.
Smiling, he added, "There's something I should tell you first—my third Soul Skill seems to have mutated and now has two effects."
"Your Soul Skill mutated?!"
By then, Qian Renxue had caught up, her face full of astonishment.
Jin E and Dugu Bo, however, remained relatively calm.
Although such cases were extremely rare in the Soul Master Realm, they weren't unheard of.
"Does that mean it tastes even better?!"
Jin Yue'er exclaimed joyfully.
"In a way, yes—so good it's explosive!"
Ye Tian teased, a dangerous glint in his eyes.
Pushing Jin Yue'er aside, under the curious gazes of both girls, Ye Tian summoned his Flawless Primordial Core Martial Soul. A black Spirit Ring glowed at his feet,
and a fiery red pill appeared in his hand.
"Wow!"
Without waiting for Ye Tian's permission, Jin Yue'er eagerly reached out with her claw-like hands.
Ye Tian didn't mind,
and as he handed her the pill, he explained:
"My third Soul Skill is called Bursting Pill."
"One of its effects is that after consuming it, a Soul Master's all attributes will increase by fifty percent for fifteen minutes!"
"All attributes increased by fifty percent?!"
Qian Renxue couldn't help her shock.
"Huh?!"
The moment the Bursting Pill entered her mouth, Jin Yue'er gaped in astonishment.
So surprised that she forgot to chew or swallow.
Even Jin E and Dugu Bo could no longer maintain their composure.
All attributes increased by fifty percent!
Even if it only lasted fifteen minutes, for a third Soul Skill, that was absolutely extraordinary!
After all...
Even a Soul Grandmaster with the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda—the world's top support-type Martial Soul—couldn't provide such an all-attribute boost!
As for Soul Kings, they could provide a sixty percent increase, but even with all five Soul Skills activated, they couldn't achieve an all-attribute enhancement! Moreover, in terms of quantity, Ye Tian's efficiency was far superior.
To some extent.
The effect of Ye Tian's third Soul Skill could already rival that of a Soul King possessing the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda Martial Soul!
If combined with Ye Tian's Domain, it would undoubtedly surpass that Soul King with ease!
"Xiao Tian~ When will your Soul Skills stop being so astonishing?" Qian Renxue exclaimed sincerely.
Ye Tian's talent and brilliance were simply too dazzling, making even her feel somewhat overshadowed.
"Yeah, it's just too overpowering~" Jin Yue'er muttered under her breath before chewing the Bursting Pill in her mouth.
At the same time, she asked with great curiosity: "Then what about the other effect of this Soul Skill? It couldn't possibly be this overpowering too, could it?"
Hearing this, Dugu Bo and the others immediately perked up their ears.
"The other effect?" Ye Tian watched the movement of Jin Yue'er's throat as she swallowed and chuckled teasingly before explaining: "The other effect is explosion!"
"Explosion?" Qian Renxue was momentarily stunned.
Beside her, Jin Yue'er, who had just swallowed the Bursting Pill, instantly widened her eyes.
"What? Explosion!"
