Douluo: Wuhun Magic Harp, summoning ancient beasts

Chapter 28: Ninth-grade Purple Ganoderma Helps Dugu Bo
Upon hearing this, Dugu Bo's pupils suddenly shrank and his face was full of disbelief.

He walked quickly to Long Chen and looked him up and down.

It seemed as if he wanted to confirm whether Long Chen was lying, or if something was wrong due to the accidental ingestion.

"You...did you really eat those two herbs? They are extremely poisonous herbs. Even I dare not touch them easily."

Long Chen smiled calmly and explained seriously:
"Of course I know how powerful those two herbs are. The one with the extreme cold poison is called Star Anise Mysterious Ice Grass, and the one with the extreme heat poison is called Fiery Apricot.

If any one of these strains is taken alone, the poison will cause death.

Although the two herbs are extremely poisonous, their toxicity can restrain each other, achieving the effect of harmonizing yin and yang.

You also know that there are many poisonous plants here. It is impossible to stay here for a long time without being affected. Even you can't do it, let alone me.

That's why I took the risk and took the two herbs at the same time. Now, my body is able to resist the poisonous gas here."

After listening to Long Chen's explanation, Dugu Bo frowned, pondered for a moment, and then slowly said:

"Boy, your courage and determination are truly admirable. However, do you know how great the risk is? If you are not careful, you will be doomed!"

"Of course I know the risks, but I also know that only by doing this can I develop the detoxification pill here with peace of mind, and can better help you and your granddaughter detoxify."

A smile appeared on Dugu Bo's face.

He deliberately waited a few days to come and see Long Chen just to test whether Long Chen could use his own abilities and the herbs here to resist the poison gas.

As a result, Long Chen really did it.

And in a way that shocked him.

"Forget it. Since you have already eaten the two herbs, I have nothing to say. The fact that you can call out their names shows that you know their value better than I do. When did you start developing the detoxification pill?"

"We can start today. Just follow me."

Dugu Bo followed Long Chen and came to a place in the medicine garden.

Long Chen pointed to a light purple fairy grass with a canopy-like top and nine leaves and said:
"This herb is called Ninth Grade Purple Ganoderma Lucidum. It is the best among all Ganoderma Lucidum. It has the effect of strengthening the body, replenishing energy and increasing strength."

After Long Chen finished speaking, he took it off and handed it to Dugu Bo.

"Ganoderma lucidum is warm in nature, and it will be good for your body if you eat it. When taking it, chew it directly and swallow it, then practice for a while to dissolve the medicinal power."

Dugu Bo took the ninth-grade purple ganoderma and hesitated.

He is a suspicious person and has only known Long Chen for a few days.

Long Chen knew more about various medicinal herbs than he did.

Only he and Long Chen knew about this place.

If he died, the medicine garden that he had painstakingly taken care of for many years would fall into Long Chen's hands.

Therefore, he had to guard against it.

"Boy, although my life is worthless, I still want to live a few more years. As the saying goes, one must be on guard against others. Over the years, I have only trusted myself. I can trust you this time and eat this herb. However, if you dare to play any tricks, you will be buried with me."

After Dugu Bo finished speaking, he spat out a emerald green bead from his mouth.

Under Dugu Bo's control, the bead slowly floated in front of Long Chen.

"This is the pill bead that was condensed after my martial soul, the Green Phosphorus Snake, evolved into the Green Phosphorus Snake King. Half of my strength is in this bead. Eat it. If I die, it will explode directly in your body."

Long Chen took the pill and joked:
"Senior, I will not harm you. On the contrary, sometimes I even doubt whether you will kill me to silence me after I detoxify you and your granddaughter. After all, I am the only one who knows about this Feng Shui treasure land besides you."

Long Chen knew that the pill bead could promote the condensation of soul power and would be beneficial to his cultivation. As soon as he finished speaking, he swallowed the pill bead without hesitation, and his dantian suddenly felt warm and comfortable.

Dugu Bo chuckled when he saw this.

"Although I am cold-blooded and have killed countless people, I am definitely not an ungrateful person. If you can really cure the backlash poison for Yanyan and me, not only will I not kill you, I will also treat you as a friend. The pill you ate will be good for your cultivation. After you cure me, I will lure it out."

"Can you trust your words?"

"Of course, I, Dugu Bo, always keep my word. To be honest, you have great courage and potential, and I originally wanted to take you as my apprentice. But after bringing you to this medicinal garden, I found that you know more than I do, so I gave up the idea."

"Okay, I believe you. Take this ninth-grade purple fungus quickly. After the drug is absorbed, we will proceed to the next stage of treatment."

Dugu Bo nodded, put the ninth-grade purple ganoderma into his mouth, chewed it and swallowed it, then sat cross-legged to practice.

An hour later, Dugu Bo woke up from his practice.

"Boy, that ninth-grade purple ganoderma really has the effect of invigorating Qi."

"Yes. You need to practice for a while longer so that the medicinal effects can be fully absorbed."

"it is good."

Over the next period of time, Long Chen refined several pills for Dugu Bo and told him to take them for a while to see how they worked.

After all, the ninth-grade purple ganoderma is the best among all the ganoderma, and it is indeed beneficial to Dugu Bo's body which has been attacked by the poison.

After taking it, he was not as painful as before when the toxins in his body attacked him.

Therefore, after this incident, Dugu Bo trusted Long Chen even more.

That day, Long Chen woke up from his training, his eyes lighting up.

"Dugu Bo's Snake King Pill is really a good thing. It increases my soul power faster and helps me break through level 40 ahead of schedule. I can go hunting soul beasts again."

Long Chen stood up and turned to look at Dugu Bo who was practicing breathing exercises nearby.

Just at this time, Dugu Bo also woke up from his cultivation.

"Senior, I have good news for you."

"Oh? What's the good news?"

"My soul power has broken through level 40. Next, I should hunt a suitable soul beast to obtain the fourth soul ring."

Dugu Bo heard this, a flash of surprise flashed in his eyes, and then turned into praise:

"Boy, your progress is really amazing. You have broken through level 40 so quickly."

"This is all thanks to your Snake King Pill."

Dugu Bo stood up and stretched his muscles.

"There are many thousand-year-old soul beasts in the Sunset Forest. Let me go with you."

Long Chen shook his head slightly and smiled:

"Senior, I have an unwelcome request. Can you accompany me to the Xingdou Great Forest? I want to hunt a ten-thousand-year-old soul beast to make my fourth soul ring."

"What? A ten thousand year soul beast?! You've only just reached level 40. How can your body handle this kind of greed?"

"Don't worry, I can handle it."
