I'm accumulating points in the cultivation world.

Tang Doudou carefully reached out to grab it, but found that she couldn't get it out no matter what she did.

If only I could move this Water Spirit Orb into my own space!

Tang Doudou thought to herself, and then activated her spatial spiritual root again, but unfortunately, she only managed to collect some water.

Tang Doudou was overjoyed to see this and continued to try, finally managing to put the Water Spirit Orb and the pool into her space.

However, the space was not very stable. Tang Doudou felt like the water was about to overflow after taking only a few steps.

Tang Doudou had no choice but to continue cultivating to stabilize the space.

Another year has passed in the blink of an eye. Tang Doudou has upgraded her spatial spiritual root to the mid-stage of the Golden Core realm. However, as expected, the two spiritual roots clashed again when faced with the equally powerful fire spiritual root.

Tang Doudou hurriedly fled to one of the illusions, where she recuperated until her spatial spiritual root completely devoured her fire spiritual root.

"The spatial spiritual root is so powerful?" Tang Doudou woke up from her coma, looked at herself and saw that she only had the spatial spiritual root left, and couldn't help but sigh.

Well, a spatial spiritual root it is then. Tang Doudou tried it and found that she could still summon fire-type spiritual power to fight, so that was fine.

Now, in her eyes, Turbulent Island is like a collection of spaces of varying sizes, and spiritual roots, in a sense, are also spaces that can only store corresponding spiritual power.

Spatial spiritual roots can absorb other spiritual roots and make them their own. That's why there are very few people with spiritual roots in this area. They are probably all because they have been absorbed by the space here.

Tang Doudou left Turbulent Island and returned to the mercenary group.

"Zhan Yue, where have you been? I haven't seen you for over a year. I thought you had gone back to Dan Pavilion." Qiao Jinghe ran over in surprise.

"I'm going into seclusion to cultivate!" Tang Doudou said with a smile.

"I can't even tell your strength anymore. How about we have a match?" Qiao Jinghe said with a smile.

"Okay, let's go to the arena!"

"Qiao Jinghe, we're about to go on a mission, let's go!" someone suddenly shouted.

"Zhan Yue, I have to go on a mission. Wait for me to come back." After saying that, Qiao Jinghe flew away on his sword.

Tang Doudou also wanted to see her own strength, so she returned to the arena.

"Zhan Yue, you've been missing for a year, I wonder how your cultivation is going?" It turned out to be Si Yu.

"Why don't we have a competition and see?" Tang Doudou said with a smile, then leaped onto the competition platform.

"Alright! I'll play with you for a bit!" Si Yu smiled and followed.

The competition officially began. Si Yu launched the first attack, shooting an icy blue spiritual energy towards Tang Doudou. Tang Doudou remained calm, mobilizing her spatial power to form a transparent barrier in front of her, easily blocking the attack.

Si Yu was slightly startled, and then unleashed a series of spells.

Tang Doudou flashed and used spatial teleportation to appear behind Si Yu, kicking him.

Si Yu dodged to the side and swung his sword at Tang Doudou. Tang Doudou crossed her arms, distorting the surrounding space. Si Yu felt a tremendous suction force, and the sword almost slipped from his hand.

The people around were amazed; they never expected Tang Doudou to be so powerful after disappearing for a year.

Si Yu gritted her teeth and unleashed her ultimate move. Dark clouds filled the sky, and countless ice spikes rained down on Tang Doudou. Tang Doudou waved her hand, and countless flames enveloped the ice spikes, turning them into water.

Seeing this, Si Yu knew he had lost, so he clasped his hands and said, "Zhan Yue, you are indeed amazing. You have made rapid progress this year."

Tang Doudou smiled slightly, "You flatter me!"

"I'll go! I want to have a match with Zhan Yue!" someone shouted and jumped up, attacking Tang Doudou without saying a word. Tang Doudou used her spatial spiritual power to dodge.

The two fought back and forth, neither gaining the upper hand! After a long while, they finally stopped.

"Zhan Yue, you are indeed powerful! You're probably close to reaching the Nascent Soul stage!"

"Not yet!" Tang Doudou said, "My master and I made a bet to see who breaks through first! If I do, I'll have to brag to my master!"

The man laughed, "Your master is quite a remarkable person! I really envy you for having such a good master!"

"Don't envy others, they're envious of you more than anyone else!" Tang Doudou said with a smile.

"Envious of me? That's where we end up! We'll probably never have another chance to move forward in this lifetime." The man sighed.

"Don't worry, it will happen!" Tang Doudou patted his shoulder and said.
