Capítulo 62: Chapter 62: A Bounty of Rewards—Instant Titled Douluo, Martial Ancestor!
"Congratulations, Master! Madam has given birth to a pair of dragon-phoenix twins!"
The midwife, beaming with joy, came forward to deliver the good news to Zhou Yi.
"Excellent! Excellent! Excellent!
"Reward her with 100 gold soul coins!"
Zhou Yi was overjoyed. He hadn't expected Er Long to be so capable, directly blessing him with dragon-phoenix twins. With a wave of his hand, he generously rewarded the midwife.
"Thank you, Master! Thank you, Master!"
The midwife's smile widened to the point her cheeks hurt.
Gold soul coins were a rarity for ordinary folk like her, who typically dealt in copper soul coins. One gold soul coin equaled ten silver soul coins or one hundred copper soul coins. A reward of 100 gold soul coins was equivalent to 10,000 copper soul coins—an astronomical amount for someone like her.
But for Zhou Yi, it was merely a drop in the bucket.
After his strength had skyrocketed, his enterprises expanded rapidly. Previously, without sufficient power, he had been forced to keep a low profile, refraining from earning too much to avoid trouble.
Now, with strength as his backing, Zhou Yi had no such concerns. His industries flourished, and wealth poured in like a raging river.
Ignoring the midwife's overwhelming gratitude, Zhou Yi approached the bedside and gently held Er Long's soft hand, transferring a stream of Sacred Heart True Qi into her.
"Er Long, you've worked hard."
"Dear husband…"
A flush spread across Liu Erlong's sweat-drenched but radiant face, her heart swelling with sweetness and gratitude.
When Zhou Yi entered the room, his first concern wasn't the children but her, deeply moving her.
"Husband, let me see the children."
"Of course."
Zhou Yi took the two newborns from the maidservants and gently placed them beside Liu Erlong. In a tender voice, he said, "A boy and a girl—dragon-phoenix twins!"
"How about naming the boy Yu Long and the girl Yu Feng?"
It seemed fitting, as Liu Erlong's name also carried the character for "dragon." Zhou Yi reasoned that with the number of women he'd have in the future, naming the children after their mothers would help with remembering and distinguishing them.
"Yu Long and Yu Feng… Wonderful!"
Liu Erlong softly repeated the names, clearly satisfied. A brilliant smile graced her fair cheeks as she gazed at the two babies, her expression radiating maternal love.
"Congratulations, Sister! Congratulations, Brother Zhou Yi!"
A silver-haired woman, Ah Yin, entered the room alongside Li Shishi, Li Baishi, and Xiao Wu. All three women had swollen bellies, especially Ah Yin, who was nearly due.
Li Shishi and Li Baishi weren't far behind her, while Xiao Wu showed no signs of progress. If not for the Transformation Pill from the system, Zhou Yi might have suspected something was wrong with the medicine.
The Transformation Pill allowed soul beasts to fully transform into humans, even to the extent that gods could not discern their original form. Zhou Yi had thoroughly checked Xiao Wu countless times, confirming there were no issues. As such, he wasn't overly concerned. With enough effort, success was inevitable.
"Thank you, dear sisters!"
Liu Erlong, having cultivated the Nine Yin True Scripture, drank nourishing spiritual elixirs daily. Zhou Yi also periodically used his Sacred Heart True Qi to warm her body.
Thus, despite just giving birth, Liu Erlong was in excellent condition. Zhou Yi's recent infusion of Sacred Heart True Qi further accelerated her recovery.
After briefly conversing with everyone, Zhou Yi left with the group, allowing Liu Erlong to rest.
In nine months, despite not dedicating himself to cultivation, Zhou Yi had advanced to the rank of Soul Emperor, reaching Level 66. He had even acquired a 90,000-year spirit ring from the Thousand-Jin Ant Brothers.
The remaining two Thousand-Jin Ants were currently suppressed in the underground chamber of his estate.
In the backyard, Zhou Yi decided to inspect the rewards he had received this time.
"Ding! Congratulations to the host for achieving the childbearing milestone. As this is the first achievement, rewards have been granted with super multipliers."
"As expected, the first rewards always come with super multipliers," Zhou Yi thought, elated and brimming with anticipation.
Rewards:
Twenty years of cultivation.
Twenty years of lifespan.
Family members' cultivation speed doubled (including wives and lovers).
One 100,000-year soul ring (skill randomized).
Soul Ring Upgrade Card (upgrades any spirit ring to 100,000 years).
Martial God Domain: Suppresses enemies, enhances oneself. Within the domain, the wielder becomes the Martial God and is unaffected by the constraints of the world's rules.
"Gasp!"
Zhou Yi's heart skipped a beat upon seeing the six rewards.
The first two rewards, twenty years of cultivation and lifespan, were standard but still valuable. The third reward, doubling his family members' cultivation speed, was a game-changer.
Once his children matured, Zhou Yi could essentially stop cultivating. His descendants' efforts would feed back into his growth.
What's more, the reward applied to his wives. Liu Erlong, Ah Yin, and the others had already benefited from a previous speed multiplier. With this new one, their cultivation speed would be quadrupled, ensuring they wouldn't lag far behind him.
The fourth and fifth rewards, related to soul rings, were self-explanatory.
But the sixth, the Martial God Domain, was extraordinary. While not an outright guarantee of invincibility, it provided immense advantages. However, significant disparities in cultivation could still render it ineffective.
The most critical aspect of the Martial God Domain was its ability to bypass the soul ring restriction in cultivation. In Douluo Continent, even when practicing martial techniques, one typically needed a soul ring every ten levels to continue advancing.
With the Martial God Domain, Zhou Yi—and those within the domain—could ignore this limitation and cultivate unhindered.
Zhou Yi first claimed the reward of twenty years of lifespan. His entire being surged with vitality, his life force radiating exuberance.
"Claim Martial God Domain!"
Boom!
A profound and ineffable sensation surged through Zhou Yi's heart, and the aura around him shifted dramatically.
If anyone were nearby, they would undoubtedly be left in awe.
Zhou Yi's appearance remained unchanged, but the impression he gave off was entirely different. A single glance at him was akin to gazing upon an immovable mountain—majestic, boundless, and awe-inspiring.
It wasn't until a full quarter-hour later that Zhou Yi completely mastered the Martial God Domain and reined in its aura. Once more, he returned to his previous refined and ethereal demeanor, as if a gentleman sculpted from jade.
"Now comes the main event!"
"Time to claim twenty years of cultivation!"
As this thought crossed his mind, an immense, torrential wave of energy—vast and unyielding, like the surging Yangtze River—poured into Zhou Yi's body. The Sacred Heart Sutra, already cultivated to perfection, began operating at full capacity.
Zhou Yi's cultivation soared rapidly.
Level 70.
Level 75.
Level 80.
Level 85.
...
Thanks to the Martial God Domain, Zhou Yi faced no bottlenecks requiring the addition of soul rings every ten levels to progress. Naturally, he could always attach the soul rings later.
After all, gaining an additional soul ring meant obtaining another ability, which was always advantageous.
The twenty years of cultivation directly propelled Zhou Yi's strength to Level 97—a leap of thirty-one levels in one go! However, the higher his level climbed, the more difficult progress became.
Zhou Yi estimated that at least fifteen years of the accumulated cultivation had been consumed after reaching Level 90.
"Hiss!"
The two 90,000-year Thousand-Jin Ants, suppressed beneath the earth, trembled uncontrollably under Zhou Yi's overwhelming aura. Terror filled their beings.
How could such a terrifying two-legged creature exist?
"No need to fear. I'll send you to reunite with your kin right now."
Zhou Yi looked at the pair of Thousand-Jin Ants. With a casual wave of his hand, he struck them down.
Two soul rings condensed from their fallen forms.
Zhou Yi absorbed them, but his Soul Power remained at Level 97.
"Too weak!"
"No, it's not them—it's me who is too strong!"
"The quality of Sacred Heart True Qi is simply too high!"
Zhou Yi shook his head. The Sacred Heart Sutra, cultivated to its peak, produced True Qi so refined that the cultivation gained from refining the spirit rings of two 90,000-year Soul Beasts was akin to a drop in the ocean.
Still, Zhou Yi didn't mind. He hadn't expected much from them anyway.
"I still have one soul ring slot left. Let's see what skill the 100,000-year soul ring reward offers!"
Claiming the 100,000-year soul ring, Zhou Yi fused it as his ninth soul ring.
After the fusion, Zhou Yi gained a soul skill—Myriad Swords Return to One.
"Incredible!"
Zhou Yi discovered that this soul skill not only allowed him to use it personally but could also be replicated and taught as a martial technique to others.
This far surpassed the standard soul skills obtained from Soul Beasts' soul rings, which were unique and bound to their respective rings, making them unusable by anyone else.
As for the final Soul Ring Upgrade Card, Zhou Yi used it on his first soul ring.
It underwent a super evolution, transforming into the skill Phantom Demon Doppelgänger.
[TL/N: It should be the Flickering Light as his first soul ring.]

"Finally, a Titled Douluo!"
Zhou Yi's eyes gleamed. Despite his prior strength, which allowed him to defeat formidable opponents like Chrysanthemum Douluo, he had never carried the same authority or recognition as a Titled Douluo in the eyes of others.
The title of Titled Douluo carried unparalleled weight.
Now, he had joined their ranks.
When he announced his ascension and held his Titled Douluo coronation, the sight of his nine soul rings alone would undoubtedly stun countless Soul Masters.
A Level 97 Titled Douluo at the age of twenty-three—had such a feat ever been heard of?
At that moment, Zhou Yi would seize the opportunity to declare to the world that his achievements were all thanks to his cultivation of martial arts.
He would establish the Martial Sect, founding a legacy and gathering disciples to spread martial arts, thus consolidating his divine position.
"I shall be the Ancestor of Martial Arts!"
