Chapter 10 Consuming the Immortal Herb
The three titled Douluo all looked at Lin Huai.
Dugu Bo's smile froze; he hadn't expected that someone else besides himself could cultivate an inner core.
"That's an autobiography of a Title Douluo, whose martial soul is the Ink Dragon Sword."
"Although he only had innate level eight soul power, he was only in his fifties when he became a titled Douluo, far surpassing those with better talent at the same time."
Lin Huai pretended to ponder and rubbed his temples.
"Furthermore, this titled Douluo refers to it as—Danzhu."
"But based on the descriptions in the book, I feel that 'soul cores' are more suitable for this type of being."
Lin Huai looked at the inner core that was still spinning.
His face showed a thirst for knowledge.
"Elder Dugu, when you usually cultivate, do you feel that this inner core has the effect of accelerating the circulation of soul power?"
Also, please just call me Lin Huai, no need to be so formal.
Looking at Lin Huaina, he had the same expression as a child seeing a favorite toy.
Dugu Bo has not yet answered.
Yue Guan's unique voice rang out first.
"If it had the effect of promoting the circulation of soul power, then he wouldn't have stayed at level 91 and had the title of the weakest."
Dugu Bo's face darkened, and he ignored Yue Guan's taunts.
"As expected of the Grand Elder's disciple, Lin Huai is right. This inner core can indeed increase the speed of soul power circulation."
He also subtly praised Sendoryu in one sentence.
"The reason why my cultivation has stagnated is also due to the poison of this Azure Scale Serpent."
"As I continued my cultivation, the snake venom became increasingly difficult to suppress. So I simply stopped cultivating and gradually perfected this inner core."
Yue Guan suppressed his mocking smile.
Surprisingly, this old guy actually managed to come up with something interesting.
Qian Daoliu skipped over the content that could accelerate cultivation.
He noticed that Dugu Bo's symptoms were somewhat similar to those of his disciple.
"Yue Guan, check on Xiao Huai's condition."
"Let's see if there's any magical herb that can solve this."
Amidst the doubts of Dugu Bo and Yue Guan, Lin Huai extended his right hand to Yue Guan.
Although it was already known that these medicinal herbs could not cure the scarlet decay.
However, Lin Huai was deeply moved by Qian Daoliu's prioritization of his own interests.
Without a closer look at the scars on his hands, Dugu Bo and Yue Guan assumed that he had been burned from getting too close to the hot spring.
Staring at the traces of decay and erosion, both of them felt a sudden pang of fear.
"Even though it won't erupt, it's still better to hold this hand."
Lin Huai withdrew his right hand and extended his left hand forward.
Yue held on with lingering fear.
However, as soon as he used his soul power to probe that strange force, he instantly released his grip.
His tone was apologetic.
"I'm sorry, Your Excellency."
"I can't handle this. Even the most miraculous herbs can't alleviate it in the slightest."
Qian Daoliu's expression became unpredictable, and the atmosphere at the scene became quite heavy.
Lin Huai quickly changed the subject.
"Teacher, don't worry. The stronger the curse, the more it proves how powerful I am."
"A person who isn't envied by others is mediocre. I'm even envied by the heavens. Maybe I can become a god directly."
Qian Daoliu once again flipped through the book of immortal herbs with a blank expression.
Lin Huai saw that his self-deprecating humor had worked.
He suggested to Dugu Bo:
"I think Elder Dugu can hold off for now. You can discuss things with the other elders and worshippers more."
"Perhaps this soul core can directly solve your problem."
Yue Guan casually picked some common herbs and some rare flowers and plants.
He threw it to Dugu Bo.
"Little Rascal is right. During this time, you should decoct these herbs in water and drink the decoction. This will greatly reduce the pain when the toxins flare up."
"Little rascal?"
Lin Huai grinned.
I should have known better than to let him change how he addresses me.
Yue Guan pointed to a white-gold immortal herb and another immortal herb shaped like a rooster's comb, with reddish-gold veins on its leaves.
"Great Offering, these two immortal herbs are named 'Holy Golden Glazed Bag' and 'Cockscomb Phoenix Sunflower' respectively."
"Other people cannot take it together."
Yue Guan looked at the thousands of streams.
"However, those who possess the Six-Winged Angel Martial Soul can not only increase their soul power, but also enhance the intensity of their fire and light attributes."
I understood what Yue Guan meant by pointing out these two immortal herbs.
Qian Daoliu was also very satisfied with Yue Guan's approach.
"Then take it off, I'll take care of it."
Yue Guan rubbed his hands together and gave an awkward smile.
"Um, taking these two together might cause some unusual symptoms."
Lin Huai looked at the two immortal herbs thoughtfully.
It seems that Yue Guan suggested Qian Renxue take it. This will allow Qian Renxue to catch up on her neglected cultivation during this period.
"Alright, you go ahead and choose the magic herbs for Xiao Huai. I'll go bring her over."
After Qian Daoliu finished speaking, he transformed into a golden light and left.
Yue Guan swayed her hips as she walked towards Lin Huai.
"You little rascal, what kind of magical herb do you want?"
Lin Huai shuddered. Looking at Yue Guan's ambiguous smile, he knew that even if he said it, Yue Guan wouldn't change his form of address.
Take a moment to think.
I don't have any attributes that need to be improved.
Even using Lianlian's arm armor and prosthetic knife, it cannot be enhanced by the Immortal Herb.
"Ordinary toxins shouldn't be able to affect me, right?"
Yue Guan recalled the terrifying corrosive power of the crimson decay.
As a titled Douluo, a portion of the soul power I release will be extinguished.
"It should be able to make one immune to all poisons."
"Old poisoner, spit a few drops of your venom at me."
Yue Guan tossed a small bottle to Dugu Bo.
Dugu Bo took out the nine-section jade from the original novel from his Ruyi Baibao Pouch.
While instructing it to secrete venom into the bottle, he angrily cursed Yue Guan.
"Damn it, you old hag, what do you take me for?"
"This will do. I have the antidote. If Lin Huai gets into any trouble, you'll see if the Grand Elder will do anything to you."
Yue Guan caught the small bottle containing the nine sections of jade venom and glanced sideways at Dugu Bo.
"I'm in a good mood today, so I won't stoop to your level." (I originally wanted to use "this old lady," but it felt too awkward, and Yue Guan in the original text wasn't that perverted.)
Take out a small knife and gently cut a small wound on Lin Huai's arm.
Pour a drop of venom onto the wound.
"You little rascal, remember to tell me if you feel unwell."
Half a minute passed.
Seeing that Lin Huai's expression remained unchanged, Yue Guan was certain of her guess.
"Yes, you do indeed have a constitution that is immune to all poisons."
Lin Huai didn't sense anything unusual either.
"Elder Ju, do you have any immortal herbs that primarily enhance soul power, or those that enhance spiritual power?"
Yue Guan scanned the area and picked up a fairy herb that was entirely jade-like and translucent white.
"It doesn't enhance spiritual power, but this Primordial Immortal Herb mainly enhances soul power. My martial soul senses that it has another effect."
"I don't know what it is, but it's definitely all benefits and no drawbacks."
Watching Lin Huai accept the Primordial Immortal Grass.
"You can take them one by one. After taking one, meditate to absorb it."
Gradually increase your soul power. This immortal herb possesses a spirit; consume it as soon as possible. Here, take this; you can use it to hold the remaining leaves.
As he spoke, he tossed a jade box to Lin Huai.
Yue Guan turned around with satisfaction and strolled around the garden of immortal herbs.
Lin Huai found an open space and sat down. He first took a leaf of the Hunyuan Immortal Grass and put it in his mouth.
The taste was so-so, it felt similar to eating grass, and it was also very tough.
Until it was swallowed, he felt a strong surge of primordial energy rush into his body, combining with his own soul power and flowing through his meridians.
Lin Huai then remembered that this was a magical herb that appeared in the legend of the Dragon King.
Taking all of them can help condense the soul core.
