Chapter 36: Absorbing the longing dew and recognizing Yue Guan as a teacher
Yue Guan and Yan reached a consensus on the idea and kept the existence of the Yin-Yang Eyes of Ice and Fire a secret.

He also knew that this mysterious place could not be known to the outside world. Once exposed, the powerful energy and rare resources it contained would surely cause countless people to scramble for it.

As the first person to discover the Yin-Yang Eyes of Ice and Fire, Dugu Bo naturally does not want anyone to know of its existence, and he will continue to guard it there.

When the time is right, by killing Dugu Bo, he can take his place and become the new owner of the mysterious garden.

Yan also knew that the Yin-Yang Eyes of Ice and Fire were formed because it was the place where the Water Dragon King and the Fire Dragon King fell.

The remains of the two dragon kings sleep at the bottom of the deep spring, containing extremely powerful energy.

Only Yan knows this secret.

He looked forward to obtaining the dragon bone one day, believing that it would bring him enormous power and make a qualitative leap in his strength.

Because of this, Yan was determined not to let Bibi Dong know the existence of the Yin-Yang Eyes of Ice and Fire.

Although his appearance seems to have changed a little, Yan is confident in facing Bibi Dong.

His overall appearance is not much different from before, except that he looks thinner.

The flame patterns on the body surface can be released at will.

For a boy who is only seventeen years old, the changes in his body can be completely understood as the result of growth and cultivation.

Those soul masters who deliberately refine their bodies can also do this.

In addition, his soul power will not be enhanced by taking the three magical herbs, but will still be at the normal rate of improvement as before.

Even if he is one or two levels higher than Xie Yue and Hu Liena, it is understandable.

After all, Yan's mentality has changed. After immersing himself in cultivation, the advantages of his martial soul gradually emerge.

At Yan's urging, Yue Guan sat down and absorbed the strange chrysanthemum.

For soul masters, it is more effective to absorb the immortal grass when they are young.

Although Yueguan is older, he may also bring unexpected results due to the perfect match between the fairy grass and the martial soul.

While Yue Guan was absorbing the magic herb, Yan returned to his room, sat cross-legged, and prepared to absorb the Wangchuanqiushui dew.

He carefully picked up the magic herb, gently tilted his head back, and a few drops of crystal clear dew slid into his mouth.

As the dew dripped in, the whole plant seemed to have completed its mission. It quickly withered and finally turned into dust and drifted away from his hands.

Then he closed his eyes and began to practice with full concentration.

Time passed little by little, and when Yan opened his eyes again, night had fallen.

He felt the changes in his eyes and found that his vision had improved greatly.

He stood up, walked to the window, and looked up into the distance.

With a thought, the dark red eyeballs suddenly turned golden red.

The buildings, lights and even the birds flying in the sky in the distance are all vividly visible, as if they were right next to you.

He tried to look further away, and he was able to clearly see the scenery several miles away. Even the subtle texture of the leaves could not escape his eyes.

This extraordinary vision is just like opening the third eye.

Not only that, he also found that his mental concentration had also been significantly improved, which would undoubtedly greatly improve his practice efficiency.

Yan felt deeply moved in his heart that this Wangchuanqiushui Dew was indeed worthy of its reputation and could bring about such amazing changes.

At this moment, Yue Guan also completed the absorption of the Qirong Tongtianju and walked in with a rosy face.

He felt the fluctuations of soul power in his body become more intense, and it was obvious that this absorption had benefited him a lot.

The two smiled at each other, and both felt the changes in each other.

"Elder Ju, it looks like you have completely absorbed the Qirong Tongtian Chrysanthemum."

"Well, you have also absorbed the Longing Dew, right? How do you feel?"

Yan nodded.

"My eyesight has greatly improved. I can see farther and more clearly. My mental concentration has also improved a lot. What about you? How do you feel? Has your soul power improved?"

Yue Guan smiled, looking very satisfied. "After all, I am already this old, and the effect of absorbing the immortal grass is not as obvious as yours. However, I have been stuck at level 95 for ten years and have never been able to break through. After absorbing that strange chrysanthemum, I have vaguely shown signs of breaking through level 96."

"That's great! Elder Ju, congratulations. It may not be long before you can break through to level ninety-six."

"Then I have to thank you."

Yue Guan laughed, unable to hide his inner joy.

After a soul master reaches the Titled Douluo level, it becomes extremely difficult to advance to the next level.

There is an insurmountable gap between level ninety-five and level ninety-six, which requires not only hard practice but also extremely high enlightenment to break that shackles.

Yueguan has been exploring for many years but has never gained anything.

And today, he finally saw hope.

"Yan, don't call me 'elder' in private anymore. It's too formal."

"Then what should I call you?"

"Or you can just call me 'Grandpa' like Nana does."

Yan paused.

He has no relatives in this world, and there seems to be nothing wrong with calling Yue Guan "Grandpa" according to seniority, but he always feels a little awkward.

"Over the past six months, you have taught me carefully and patiently explained to me knowledge about flowers and plants, which has benefited me a lot. In my heart, you have long been like a teacher. Otherwise, I will call you "teacher" from now on?"

After hearing this, Yue Guan nodded with satisfaction and said with a smile:

"Okay. From now on you will be my student. I will not only teach you things, but also protect you."

"Thank you, teacher."

"This is what I should do. During this period of time, we should not go to Sunset Forest again, so as not to arouse Dugu Bo's suspicion. You should concentrate on training in the Great Fighting Spirit Arena."

"Ah."

The two looked at each other and smiled.

After this day, their relationship took a step further.

~~~~~~~~~
the next day.

After having dinner early, Yan and Yue Guan prepared to go to the Toks Fighting Arena.

Now, he can control the flames in his body easily.

After being retracted, the domineering flame patterns on the surface of the body were no longer visible.

When walking on the street, you are no longer so conspicuous.

A few days later, the two came to the Great Fighting Spirit Arena again.

Like the previous two times, Yan first went to the front desk to sign up for the competition, and found the same receptionist as before.

The girl was the one who received him the first two times he signed up.

The receptionist was surprised when she saw Yan.

"Are you from the Yanluo Battle Soul Sect?"

"Yes. No doubt, I am."

Yan nodded slightly.

Even after getting a definite answer, the receptionist's face still showed surprise.

"It's only been a few days, and you seem to have lost weight."

"This is due to training. Well, let's not talk about this for now. I want to sign up for the one-on-one match tonight. Do you have the authority to arrange an opponent for me?"

"I don't have one. But the supervisor has already told me that if you come, a water-attribute spirit master will be assigned as your opponent."

"Very good, that suits me just fine."
