Douluo: Trinity, I run through the timeline.

Chapter 19 Evil Fire is Still Fire (Please Read On!!!)

It's good that the disciple broke through, but a breakthrough that goes against common sense is not necessarily a good thing. Zhu Jiuyang stared at Su Ming and asked him about the reason for his breakthrough.

Su Ming didn't hide anything, especially the role of whale glue. If he didn't explain it clearly, it would be difficult to achieve the second soul ring after a thousand years, or even the fourth soul ring after ten thousand years, since his soul rings all depended on Zhu Jiuyang.

"Teacher, I've taken whale gelatin."

"Whale glue? What do you need that for?" Zhu Jiuyang's face darkened.

Su Ming didn't keep them in suspense and said directly, "Whale glue contains abundant energy, which can temper the body and enhance the soul master's resistance to soul rings. In other words, it indirectly enhances the soul master's ability to withstand soul rings. I want to absorb a thousand-year soul ring when I get to the second ring."

"Are you sure?" Zhu Jiuyang indicated that he himself was unsure about this.

If it really has such an effect, whale gel will definitely become a hot commodity, right?

"Yes, this is a book I found by chance in the village. It seems to be a notebook from a soul master from the sea. It not only describes the function of whale glue, but also records some simple methods for making soul tools."

Su Ming imitated Tang San's nonsense.

Tang San's Tang Sect techniques were also found in a secret manual.

A glint flashed in Zhu Jiuyang's eyes as he completely enveloped the surroundings with his soul power, isolating all sound.

"Making a soul tool?"

Su Ming had anticipated that Zhu Jiuyang's reaction would be a bit strong, so he remained relatively calm.

"Yes, there are some basic methods for making soul tools."

Zhu Jiuyang's eyes gleamed.

"overseas."

After considering it for a while, he warned Su Ming: "Don't let anyone else know that you have mastered the method of making soul tools. Remember, soul tools can only be excavated from ancient ruins!"

Su Ming was stunned for a moment.

What do you mean?
A multitude of thoughts flashed through his mind.

That's right. The Spirit Hall has knowledge of the sea and has even conducted a large-scale landing on Seagod Island. How could they not discover the Sun Moon Continent?
"Don't overthink it. The manufacturing process of soul tools involves too many vested interests, and you can't handle it. However, I am a master blacksmith and have handled at least three-digit numbers of soul tools. I have also been in the Blacksmith Association for many years and have collected some soul tools. You won't be suspected if you take out some soul tools in the future, as long as you don't expose them in large quantities."

Zhu Jiuyang told Su Ming not to overthink it.

"As for the effects of whale gelatin, I didn't know that before. Come here so I can examine your body."

Su Ming stepped forward.

Zhu Jiuyang pinched him, then channeled his soul power into his body and circulated it around.

"You've been blacksmithing for years, so your physical condition is better than that of an average Soul Master. The strength of your meridians is also exaggerated. This must be due to the whale glue. Your Soul Power is not weak, but rather more mellow."

He breathed a sigh of relief, confirming that Su Ming was in good condition.

How did you take it?

Su Ming described the process in detail.

Hearing Su Ming's description, Zhu Jiuyang's lips twitched.

admire.

A large piece of the Thousand-Year Whale Glue can be eaten in a few bites, and then you have to resist the urge to eat it.

How ruthless must someone be?

“Such a large piece probably can’t exert its full effect; whale glue is meant to be used in small doses,” Zhu Jiuyang said. “From what I understand, a piece of whale glue that large, as you mentioned, would last those nobles three months, and they would take it every day, so the medicinal effect would be very strong. The book you got didn’t say that it should be taken all at once, did it?”

Su Ming shook his head.

"Yes, I'll try to get some whale glue later and study how to combine it in a recipe to maximize its effects. I'll give you a small amount every day to ensure maximum benefit," Zhu Jiuyang said. "Thank you, teacher."

"Yes, it's always good to be able to withstand spirit rings of higher age," Zhu Jiuyang said with a smile.

I gained a lot of experience today.

He didn't take Su Ming directly to the Soul Hunting event, but instead made Su Ming wait for two days.

After Su Ming left, he pondered for a while, then went to the auction house and bought a piece of millennium whale glue to experience it firsthand.

"It really works. I only used half the amount. If I had taken the whole dose, it would have increased my lifespan by at least three hundred years."

Before he could finish tasting it, Zhu Jiuyang felt a surge of evil fire.

"If Xiaoming, a child, can endure it, why would I be afraid of you?"

Zhu Jiuyang remained unmoved, channeling his soul power within his body in a frantic attempt to refine this evil fire.

Evil fire is also a form of energy, a special kind of vital energy.

"Evil fire is still fire, watch me completely refine it with holy fire!"

Su Ming waited for two days but found he couldn't contact his teacher. He asked Duan Jin for answers but got no response.

Five days later, I received the news that Zhu Jiuyang had broken through.

"A breakthrough? So sudden?"

Zhu Jiuyang stayed in the 79th grade for a long time, a full three years.

They actually broke through now.

In fact, this is the normal breakthrough speed for high-level Soul Masters. After reaching level 70, even those with good talent can only break through three levels in two years. It is rare for them to break through two levels in one year. In fact, it is common to break through one level per year. At the levels 79 and 89, it takes a lot of time to break through, ranging from two or three years to five or six years.

Zhu Jiuyang is only forty-five years old this year, and his body is still in its peak period. He has now broken through level eighty and is expected to be a titled Douluo within twenty years.

Su Ming was happy for his teacher.

He arrived at Zhu Jiuyang's foundry.

"Congratulations, teacher, on breaking through to level 80."

Zhu Jiuyang was also full of energy and had a spirited and positive attitude.

"Hmm, your spirit ring has been delayed long enough. I'll help you hunt for a spirit first, and then I'll figure out a way to get your eighth spirit ring."

Su Ming said, "Teacher, isn't there a dark gold bear over at the meteorite mine? Let's use that dark gold bear."

He had long coveted that dark gold bear, but unfortunately, his first spirit ring couldn't absorb a thousand-year spirit ring beyond his level.

When Duan Jin returned, he told Zhu Jiuyang about the meteorite iron mine. Zhu Jiuyang was mining that vein, and Su Ming went there twice more. He could still run into the dark gold bear from afar.

"Dark Gold Bear?" Zhu Jiuyang obviously knew about the Dark Gold Bear as well, and said with a smile, "That's good. That Dark Gold Bear has an extraordinary bloodline. It has absorbed a lot of metal elemental energy while guarding the meteorite mine, which has inversely promoted the reversion of its bloodline. Although it has not completely evolved into a Dark Gold Terrorclaw Bear, it has still exceeded the scope of a Dark Gold Bear. If it had successfully reverted to its ancestral form, it would not be suitable as your soul ring. The current situation is just right."

Su Ming was overjoyed to hear what Zhu Jiuyang said.

They've actually reverted to their ancestral bloodline.

Although he didn't evolve successfully, this actually lowers the barrier to entry for him to absorb it.

In particular, he is preparing to fuse with the Dark Gold Bear in the form of a soul spirit. The Dark Gold Bear has a bloodline that has returned to its ancestral form and is very close to evolution. It will have a chance to complete the evolution in the future, and Su Ming will be able to fully benefit from the effects of that evolution!

He licked his lips and couldn't help but urge them on.

"Teacher, when do we leave?"
