Douluo : People are writing diaries in Douluo

Seeing everyone's enthusiasm about the immortal herbs, Su Ming added, "Don't worry, everyone. As long as you contribute to the Spirit Hall, I promise that I'll reward you with at least one half-immortal herb to boost your potential."

Chrysanthemum Douluo laughed, "Exactly. Su Ming isn't one to lie. You should know by now that my and Ghost Douluo's soul power had stagnated for years. Now, thanks to Su Ming, we've both reached level 96."

Hearing this, Niu Gao and the others were astonished. They hadn't expected the herbs' effects to be so potent, even pushing two powerful elders from level 95 to 96. For those of their talents, the jump to Titled Douluo was once unimaginable without a stroke of luck. Now, with Su Ming's assurance, they were thrilled. Even a half-immortal herb would be valuable, considering its rarity.

Feeling invigorated, Niu Gao slapped the table, declaring, "Old Yang, Old White Bird, Tai Nuo—starting tomorrow, we'll pull extra shifts if we must, but we'll get the four halls built in no time! You all better not think of slacking off and dumping the hard work on the Strength Clan!"

He added, "You might not know how to construct, but you're not skipping out on the heavy lifting. In five days, Su Ming will take up his position as Holy Son. The world's going to see a renewed Four Great Single-Attribute Clans, and we'll do Su Ming proud!"

Watching Niu Gao's enthusiasm, Yang Wudi and the others felt just as motivated. Su Ming's words were too enticing to ignore, and everyone felt compelled to make his vision a reality.

Seeing them so fired up, Su Ming nodded in satisfaction and left with Dugu Bo. The two strolled leisurely around the city.

"Little monster," Dugu Bo mused as he looked into the distance, "you're already at level 70. Any thoughts on your seventh soul ring? After that, I suppose you'll head to Sea God Island?"

Su Ming smiled. "Exactly. But what's with the sighing, old monster? Things are going well, aren't they? As for my seventh ring, I have a plan in mind. I'll surprise you. I promise you'll be stunned."

Dugu Bo chuckled, "Surprise? What kind of surprise? Even if you tell me it's a hundred thousand years old, I wouldn't be shocked. You're a little monster, after all." He paused, reflecting. "I sigh because meeting you has changed everything in my life for the better in just a year or two. Once you ascend to godhood and handle Tang San and the Asura God, I can finally retire in peace."

Su Ming, sensing Dugu Bo's sentimentality, laughed. "Old monster, are you worried about the future? I promise we'll all be just fine. I'll even take care of you in your old age!"

Dugu Bo's footsteps faltered momentarily, and he blinked back a tear that quickly evaporated as he activated his soul power. He tapped Su Ming's head and scoffed, "Me? Need you to take care of me? I have Yan Yan!"

Su Ming smirked, rubbing his head. "You're already planning to marry her off to me, so you're practically my father-in-law. It's only fitting I look after you." He added, more serious, "When all of this is over, I'm planning a grand wedding for my women."

Dugu Bo chuckled, intrigued. "Speaking of which, Su Ming, how far have you and my granddaughter gotten?"

Su Ming, caught off guard by Dugu Bo's prying, felt embarrassed. "Old monster, seriously! That's private. Let's just say we're one step away and leave it at that."

Seeing Su Ming's discomfort, Dugu Bo laughed and nodded in satisfaction, mainly wanting to see if the relationship was progressing as planned. Since Su Ming and Dugu Yan were his own pairing idea, he felt relieved that things were moving forward.

Remembering Su Ming's ambition to cultivate immortal herbs, he asked, "Su Ming, are you really confident you can transplant those herbs here? We don't exactly have an Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well."

Su Ming replied with a grin, "No natural well, true. But we might be able to recreate one artificially. It's worth a shot, considering how valuable those herbs are. Even if their potency drops a little, it'll still be worth it."

In his storage space, Su Ming had a distilled essence from the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well, courtesy of the system. He figured it could potentially simulate a similar environment.

"Have you decided who to bring to Sea God Island? And for the record, Yan Yan has to go. I'll stay back to help you manage the four halls," Dugu Bo said.

Su Ming nodded. "I haven't finalized the list, but Yan Yan, Xiao Wu, Zhu Qing, and Rong Rong are definite. I'll also bring Chrysanthemum Douluo and Ghost Douluo. Even though they're older, the immortal herbs may allow them to gain something from Sea God Island's trials."

"If they manage to benefit, I'll have you go with the next group." To Su Ming's surprise, Dugu Bo shook his head, declining.

"Little monster, I've got the cultivation methods you gave me. I'll improve just fine without trekking across the world. I prefer a simpler life, honestly."

Su Ming chuckled at Dugu Bo's refusal. "Fair enough. You've got enough resources to reach level 99 with time."

As night fell, Su Ming was about to absorb a divine soul ring when he sensed a familiar presence outside. He laughed and called out, "Senior Bai He, why the window? Why not use the door?"

Bai He awkwardly chuckled and hopped inside, clearly a bit embarrassed.
