Douluo Dalu: The Unrivaled Panlong Zhentian

Chapter 30 Mysterious Herbs Suspected to Be Immortal Products

Qiangu Tianzong was extremely grateful at this moment. If he didn't have that intuition and didn't take out the ancient jade concentration box, he would have missed the opportunity to open the ancient jade concentration box.

"Ancient Jade Concentration Box, what secrets do you hold?"

Is it really as the Xiao family said at the beginning, that there is a set of spiritual secrets engraved inside, or is this ancient jade concentration box itself so magical, and its texture is really the same as the gold of living things.

"Everything... will be revealed!" Qiangu Tianzong came to the ancient jade concentration box with a slight crack.

……

“………” Looking at the things in the box, Qiangu Tianzong fell into silence.

There seems to be a strange plant in the box, which exudes rich vitality and strong spiritual fluctuations.

This is a grass, about 20 cm long, with the lower part of the stem lying on the ground and the upper part upright. The leaves are broadly ovate to narrowly ovate. The whole grass scatters white light, but its stem has a touch of dark color. The two colors interweave, making this grass look extraordinary.

However, Qiangu Tianzong didn't recognize this plant at all. But he was very sure of one thing, this extraordinary-looking grass must be some kind of precious herb. It might even be a fairy-grade herb.

Here we have to talk about Qiangu Tianzong's complex brain knowledge. As the soul of another world, Qiangu Tianzong understands one truth the most: knowledge is the ladder to becoming strong.

Qiangu Tianzong knows that knowledge is a solid stepping stone to the path of power. Knowledge plays a pivotal role for both mortals and spirit masters. Mortals may not have the extraordinary power of spirit masters, but they can also gain a place in the world and even hold supreme power with their wisdom and strategy.

Soul Masters, on the other hand, use knowledge as a weapon to constantly hone their ability to survive and improve their strength. In their eyes, knowledge is not just words in books, but also a sharp weapon in their battles and the key to their survival in adversity.

So since he can remember, he has consciously read a lot of books in his spare time. When his peers were still having fun, he had already shown a maturity far beyond his peers.

However, this is not a strange thing in Douluo Continent.

After his martial soul awakened, with the appearance of his second martial soul, the Jianmu martial soul, Qiangu Tianzong immediately had a plan for the Jianmu martial soul in his mind.

The ultimate wood attribute. In order to maximize the effectiveness of wood, it is best to choose a soul beast with wood attribute to obtain a soul ring.

As Jianmu is Qiangu Tianzong's second martial soul, although Jianmu is not prominent in Qiangu Tianzong's plan in the early stage, Jianmu will be his ultimate trump card.

Therefore, Qiangu Tianzong had long since set his eyes on those hundred thousand year old immortal items in the Yin-Yang Eyes of Ice and Fire.

That's why he had the motivation to learn all kinds of herbal knowledge. The information about immortal herbs has existed for thousands of years, but now more people know about this kind of immortal knowledge. Especially in the Sun Moon Empire, soul guides have risen, and more soul guides have chosen to take herbs to improve their soul power in order to have more time and energy to invest in soul guide research.

Qiangu Tianzong, who is now fourteen years old and almost fifteen, has already absorbed a lot of knowledge about herbs, but he really cannot find any of the herbs in this ancient jade concentration box from his memory.

“Is this herb a magical product?”

"If it's not a fairy-grade herb, I really can't figure out why that spiritual master would seal it in this ancient jade mind-concentrating box."

"What a pity! I have no idea what this suspected immortal herb is called or how to use it."

"If I rashly use unknown medicinal herbs, I'm really afraid that I will follow in the footsteps of Mr. Shennong." It's not that Qiangu Tianzong is bragging, the truth is that immortal herbs cannot be eaten casually. There are certain steps to swallow immortal herbs.

Qiangu Tianzong shook his head slightly, throwing away the idea of ​​immortal items. His eyes swept over the herbs that looked like immortal items and the ancient jade concentration box.

"So this grass is the source of the ancient jade concentration box's ability to assist in cultivating spiritual power?" Qiangu Tianzong asked this rhetorical question unconsciously while looking at the grass.

"It's a bit hasty to judge like this. I haven't studied the material of this ancient jade concentration box yet!"

"And according to what Xiao Qing said before, there is a secret method of cultivating mental power engraved inside this ancient jade concentration box." Qiangu Tianzong said as he extended his mental power to see if there was indeed anything engraved inside the jade box.

However, his mental detection was completely isolated. "Huh? Blocking mental detection, mental isolation?"

"If that's the case." Qiangu Tianzong thought for a moment, then took out a wooden box from the storage soul guide, then held the ancient jade concentration box in both hands and lifted it up, and slowly poured the herbs in the jade box into the wooden box.

What a rough operation method. Qiangu Tianzong was quite inclined to use mental power to move it over. But unfortunately, with his current mental power level, he couldn't reach this level.

However, while doing this, he also confirmed one thing, that is, this ancient jade concentration box cannot be compared with the gold of living beings. Because just now, after he poured the mysterious herb into the wooden box, the spiritual power he felt close to his body dissipated by nine out of ten.

According to Qiangu Tianzong's previous conjecture, if the jade box was of extremely high quality, then even if there was something inside, this box would be no less valuable. Now it seems that the value of this box itself has been greatly reduced.

"Now let's study this ancient jade concentration box carefully."

"See if there is really a secret method engraved inside it."

Qiangu Tianzong slowly turned the end with the mouth towards himself.

For just a moment, his big eyes stared at the concave interior of the box.

"No words?" Qiangu Tianzong, who didn't believe in evil, even reached out his hand to touch the inner surface of the jade box, and felt it was uneven.

But it was obvious that he was disappointed, really not.

"What the hell is going on?"

"Or did Xiao Qing lie to me?"

Qiangu Tianzong’s confusion and disappointment are completely understandable.

He originally expected to find the secret method of spiritual power cultivation or information about this herb in the ancient jade concentration box, but the reality disappointed him. However, this disappointment may only be temporary, because things may not be as simple as he imagined.

First of all, regarding the herb in the ancient jade concentration box, although Qiangu Tianzong did not recognize it, it did not mean that it was not a fairy herb. In the mysterious and unknown world of Douluo Continent, there are many unknown plants and herbs that may hide amazing effects. And since this herb can cause strong mental fluctuations, it must not be an ordinary thing.

Secondly, regarding the ancient jade concentration box itself, although it did not directly engrave the secret method of cultivating spiritual power, it did not mean that it had no value. From Qiangu Tianzong's previous experience, this jade box itself had the function of isolating spiritual power, which was a very special effect in itself. Perhaps, this jade box itself was a special cultivation tool that required a specific method to trigger the secret method inside.

Finally, whether Xiao Qing deceived Qiangu Tianzong or not, this needs further investigation. Since he mentioned the ancient jade concentration box and the secret method in it, it means that he does know something. But why Qiangu Tianzong cannot see the secret method directly? This may be because Xiao Qing has reservations, or because this secret method requires specific conditions to appear. However, although he was a little dissatisfied with Xiao Qing, he slowly came to his senses. After temporarily breaking away from the desire for information inside the ancient box, his IQ returned to its high ground.

"Something feels wrong. Why do I feel so familiar with this plot?" For a moment, Qiangu Tianzong felt that the scene was inexplicably familiar, but he couldn't remember clearly what happened afterwards.

This is also the trouble of having too many and complex memories. The brain capacity is larger, but the search function is reduced.

But he was also a man who was active in the online literary circle in his previous life. He understood many routines, but there were too many of them and he couldn't sort out which ones were which at once.

"Wait! Let me tell you about this routine."

"According to Xiao Qing, this ancient jade concentration box was passed down from his ancestors."

"It is now known that the ancient box contains treasures, and the treasures hidden inside are great treasures. This box also has a powerful seal, and the sealing power is still spiritual power."

“But if it was something that the Xiao family’s ancestors left to the Xiao family, their ancestors should not have left such a powerful seal.”

"After all, for the benefit of the family, if such a treasure cannot bring benefits to their family, but instead attracts people to covet it, I have never heard of such a deceiving ancestor."

"Can I assume that this ancient jade concentration box is not originally owned by their family, but was looted from someone else, or found from somewhere?"

"Is there any other secret inside this box? Is there any spiritual message or something like that?"

Thinking of this, Qiangu Tianzong put away the ancient jade concentration box in his hand and the herbs in the wooden box, and came to the workbench.

He picked up a pen and wrote down his guesses one by one.

Hypothesis 1: The ancient jade mind-concentrating box is indeed from the Xiao family. Perhaps when the Xiao family was strong, the Xiao family members who left the ancient box did not expect that the Xiao family would fall to this point in the future. They only wanted to leave this item to the next genius of the Xiao family with a spiritual martial soul to open it. Because the herbs are related to mental power, it is best used on people with spiritual talent.

The conditions for opening the Ancient Jade Concentration Box are that only a member of the Xiao family with strong mental power, or someone with the blood of the Xiao family, can obtain some information from the jade disk inside the Ancient Jade Concentration Box.

Hypothesis 2: The ancient jade concentration box was an accidental acquisition of the Xiao family, and the Xiao family members were unable to open it. To obtain the items and information inside, strong mental power is still required.

Qiangu Tianzong currently has these two conjectures. With the conjecture, it is time to start testing. Anyway, he felt that his conjecture one was ridiculous. If conjecture one was really correct, he really couldn't understand what the ancestor of the Xiao family was thinking at the time.

The next day! Qiangu Tianzong came to a secret place. This place belonged to an organization in the dark of Sun and Moon Imperial City, which was specialized in intelligence transactions.

There are several places like this. The others are responsible for assassinations, secret treasure exchanges, underground soul fighting and life-and-death gambling, etc.

Qiangu Tianzong paid the money and after waiting for a few days, he finally got the news he wanted.

Back to Mingde Hall, Qiangu Tianzong opened the paper that recorded the Xiao family affairs.

"The Xiao family, three thousand years ago, the Xiao family has always been one of the seven top families of the Sun-Moon Empire. Basically, there is a Titled Douluo in every generation of the family." With a Titled Douluo in charge, it is no wonder that it was listed among the seven major families of the Sun-Moon Empire at that time.

"Well! The Xiao family had a soul master with a mutated spiritual martial soul in his ancestor, who was the patriarch four thousand three hundred years ago." The above also responded to the question raised by Qiangu Tianzong at that time.

"."

Qiangu Tianzong paid enough money, and the underground intelligence exchange was also powerful, and they investigated the history and current details of the Xiao family very thoroughly.

"Bloodline?"

"As Xiao Qing is a direct descendant of the Xiao family, his blood should be able to be used for a test." The paper wrote Xiao Qing's background: he was the eldest son of the head of the Xiao family.

In response to this, Qiangu Tianzong took action again. He spent money and others did the work.

One day later, Qiangu Tianzong got what he wanted, a jade bottle filled with blood. He got what he wanted, but it was a pity that Xiao Qing was still lying in bed.

"Let's give it a try!" Qiangu Tianzong did not have high hopes for his first guess, but since he had already put forward a guess, he also needed to prove it.

Qiangu Tianzong took out the ancient jade concentration box, then unplugged the jade bottle and poured Xiao Qing's blood into it.

One second, two seconds...

"I really thought too much!" Qiangu Tianzong felt relieved when he saw this scene. He said it! How could there be such an outrageous ancestor?

When he was not paying much attention, the ancient jade concentration box suddenly burst out with light.

"It can't be that outrageous!" Seeing this, Qiangu Tianzong knew that the inference he had just denied had been overturned, and the corners of his mouth couldn't help but twitch slightly.

Suddenly, a clear voice sounded in Qiangu Tianzong's mind. The voice was distant and mysterious. "Descendant of the Xiao family, when you activate the spiritual transmission I left behind, it proves that you are good enough."

"The seal I set cannot be broken by any spirit master other than a spirit master, not even those Title Douluo who have cultivated to level 95. However, I do not deny that a Title Douluo above level 95 can violently destroy my spirit seal."

"Well, I am the descendant of the Xiao family. The fact that you can break my spiritual seal proves that your martial soul is of spiritual attribute, and your soul power has reached the level of Soul Douluo."

"Hahahaha! My Xiao family is indeed full of talented people."

“……” It’s true that there are so many talented people here that all the things our ancestors had have been sold off.

"To be honest with you! There is no inheritance in this box. I only used this box because I saw that it could lock up the essence of life."

"Xiao family descendants, listen carefully, all I left behind is a herb in the box!"

"But since you can open this box, you should be able to see that the herbs I left in the jade box are definitely not ordinary."
