Chapter 34 Titled Douluo Provides Protection, Refining Whale Glue
With Yu Xiaogang's reminder, Yu Yuanzhen finally understood what to do.
Watching Yu Xiaogang prepare to refine the whale glue, he couldn't help but sigh. Every time he talked with his son, he felt as if his son had transcended the Douluo Continent.
Whether it was his way of looking at problems or his understanding of certain things, he was always a level above ordinary people, sometimes even several levels.
"Hehe, luckily this is my son!"
Yu Yuanzhen sighed, then led Yu Xiaogang to the newly built training room in the family, specifically for processing and refining whale glue.
Upon entering the training room, a wave of intense heat washed over them.
In the center of the room sat a figure meditating.
His hair and beard were gray, but he also had a pair of bright red eyebrows, making his figure instantly memorable.
"Elder Yan, we're here to refine the whale glue!"
Yu Yuanzhen called out to Elder Yan, who opened his eyes and looked at Yu Yuanzhen.
"It's the sect leader! You... It seems your young master has reached level ten, much faster than most in the sect expected."
Elder Yan rose, first paying his respects to Yu Yuanzhen, before turning to look at Yu Xiaogang.
"Elder Yan, I'll be in trouble with you later."
Yu Xiaogang bowed to Elder Yan.
As one of the three upper sects, the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan's powerful members are naturally not limited to the sect leader and a few elders.
While the sect leader and elders are the core of the sect, the sect also has subordinate forces, such as guest elders.
For example, Thunder Academy, one of the five renowned academies in the Douluo Continent, is supported by the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan.
In addition, some families that inherit lightning-attribute martial souls also have intricate connections with the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan.
Besides power, strength is key. The Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan has the position of Guest Elder, and every one of them possesses the strength of a Soul Douluo.
Take Elder Yan, for example. He's an 82-level Soul Douluo, and his martial soul is a fire-attribute martial soul that follows the extreme style.
It was also because of this that Elder Yan became one of the participants in the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan's whale glue affairs.
"Haha, what's the trouble? It's just a small matter."
"I've been curious about you for a long time; you've discovered the secret of whale glue at such a young age."
"That's impressive."
Elder Yan stroked his beard and sighed.
"I only discovered whale glue because I lacked natural talent and wanted to find a way to change it."
"To be honest, I really don't know if this is my luck or my misfortune."
Yu Xiaogang wore a complicated expression.
"In my opinion, this might be your good fortune. Heaven wants you to walk an extraordinary path, so it naturally sets up many obstacles for you."
"Only by overcoming these obstacles can you truly become a powerful figure."
"Those with exceptional talent may have a smoother path in the early stages, but if you can catch up, you will definitely not lose to them!"
Elder Yan spoke with such conviction and force, as if he could already foresee the day Yu Xiaogang would rise to prominence.
Although his words had a hint of flattery, he was serious to some extent.
That means if Yu Xiaogang can truly catch up, then he will definitely not lose to those geniuses.
"Haha, Elder Yan, you're going a bit too far. He's only just getting started; it's still a long way off."
Although Yu Yuanzhen's words went too far, his smile never faded.
After some polite exchanges, Elder Yan accepted the ten-thousand-year-old whale glue handed to him by Yu Xiaogang. He glanced at Yu Yuanzhen with some surprise, then activated his martial soul and began refining the whale glue.
Elder Yan's martial soul is called the Fiery Lion. The moment the martial soul possessed him, the temperature in the entire training room instantly soared by more than ten degrees.
By holding the whale glue in his hand and repeatedly heating it, the crystalline whale glue turned into a sticky liquid in just a short time.
At the same time, a strong fishy smell and aroma emanated from the whale glue.
"Kid, eat it while it's hot!"
After the roasting was complete, Elder Yan dispelled his martial soul possession and handed the whale glue to Yu Xiaogang.
Without hesitation, Yu Xiaogang took the scalding hot whale glue and put it directly into his mouth.
"Hiss—"
The intense heat instantly spread throughout his mouth. Yu Xiaogang quickly gathered his soul power in his mouth and oral cavity to prevent the whale glue from burning him.
Having completed all this, Yu Xiaogang swallowed the whale glue, then quickly sat cross-legged on the ground, closed his eyes, and circulated his soul power, preparing to refine the medicinal effects of the whale glue.
At the same time, Yu Yuanzhen arrived beside Yu Xiaogang, placing his hands on Yu Xiaogang's shoulders. A surge of powerful soul energy flowed through his hands into Yu Xiaogang's body, protecting him.
A moment later, a burning sensation began to spread through Yu Xiaogang's body.
It began in the abdomen and flowed towards the limbs and bones.
"Hmm..."
A restless feeling coursed through Yu Xiaogang's body, causing him to involuntarily groan twice.
However, Yu Xiaogang quickly suppressed his inner agitation and began to focus on refining the medicinal power.
Not long after, Yu Yuanzhen, who was protecting Yu Xiaogang, felt something flowing continuously within the meridians he was protecting.
And as more and more fluid flowed, while the meridians are only so wide, the meridians gradually swelled due to the continuous accumulation of these fluids.
"This... thank goodness Xiaogang called me for help, otherwise Xiaogang would definitely have had his meridians burst from the effects of the whale glue."
Yu Yuanzhen looked relieved.
He decided that once he got back, he would ask Xiaogang again if there was anything else he needed to be careful about regarding whale glue.
If it weren't for Xiaogang, their reckless decision to let a family's genius refine the ten-thousand-year-old whale glue would have directly destroyed that genius.
With Yu Yuanzhen present, the effects of the ten-thousand-year whale glue attempted to break through Yu Xiaogang's meridians, but unfortunately for a Title Douluo, handling such a situation was far too easy.
Therefore, although Yu Xiaogang felt bloated throughout the process of refining the whale glue, and the refining process took far longer than usual, the entire refining process proceeded without any unexpected incidents.
So, as the sun rose the next day, everything within Yu Xiaogang's body returned to calm, and he slowly opened his eyes.
"How are you feeling?"
Having worked tirelessly all night, Yu Yuanzhen asked with a smile.
"I feel healthier than ever before!"
Yu Xiaogang raised his hand, clenched his fist, and felt a surge of power coursing through his body. At that moment, he felt he could do anything.
Of course, this feeling is just an illusion caused by the sudden increase in power.
Yu Xiaogang wouldn't mistake this feeling for real power; he'd have to wait until he obtained his first spirit ring.
"My first spirit ring... I wonder what kind of spirit skill I'll get from it."
