Douluo Jueshi, world modulation mode

An Zhen gently touched the Hunyuan Immortal Grass and a few Acacia Heartbreak Red plants with her fingers.

The Primordial Immortal Herb, aged for 40,000 years.

Two trees are 20,000 years old, three trees are 10,000 years old, and two trees are 9,000 years old.

The Gold of Life truly lives up to its reputation as the purest life force beneath the divine realm. For immortal herbs, it's like increasing their experience points over time, rapidly boosting their growth. Only immortal herbs with a strong foundation, coupled with this pure life force—arguably the gentlest power in the world—would be able to withstand the onslaught of any other form of energy, even from super-powerful soul beasts.

Of course, the Fragrant Silk Immortal Herb played an indispensable role. A 100,000-year-old immortal herb used its power to guide these immortal herbs to absorb and refine the life force. After all, these immortal herbs that were reflected by An Zhen only had bodies and souls, but no consciousness. Letting them rely on the instinct of the immortal herb body to absorb the life force would take an unknown amount of time.

Those who have made contributions should be rewarded, and those who have made mistakes should be punished.

The reflection showed a water ladle. Anzhen scooped up a ladleful and handed it to the vines that were dancing excitedly beside her.

"Wow!"

The excited and joyful voice expressed the emotions of the fragrant and exquisite fairy product.

A series of gazes turned towards them from the garden.

The pure life force is an irresistible temptation for any living being, let alone these immortal herbs.

“We’ll continue later,” Anzhen said.

"What's the highest it can go?"

"Seventy or eighty thousand years, I guess," the voice of the Fragrant Silk Immortal rang out. "At that point, I might only be able to take care of it. Cultivation is ultimately a personal matter. I can guide it when its lifespan isn't too high, but the higher its cultivation level, the more difficult it becomes. Youyou only has one hundred and one thousand years of cultivation."

A master helps a person in a vegetative state absorb energy and convert it into internal strength.

"Row."

Anzhen nodded gently.

"Speak."

"Youyou, do you want to take a gamble?"

Anzhen's gaze fell on the large pink flower.

It's not for him, it's for the girls. His seventh spirit ring is already secured—the divinely bestowed spirit ring that Teacher Destruction gave him, handcrafted from a portion of a world's essence. As for the eighth and ninth, An Zhen wants spirit rings with even higher age. The Fragrance Qiluo Immortal Item itself is quite powerful, and if it can become a spirit spirit, even if absorbed and used as the seventh spirit ring's martial soul true body, its spirit form can still play a significant role.

"Hey?"

"Youyou doesn't want to—"

The fragrant and exquisite fairy product stopped before she could finish speaking.

Almost instantly.

All the sentient immortal herbs turned their gaze toward Anzhen.

The black-haired youth stood still, a faint green aura swirling around him. This life force, imbued with a captivating vitality and a welcoming nature, truly made him the kind of person everyone loved and flowers would bloom for. But this alone wasn't enough to leave the numerous immortal herbs completely stunned. A green mark appeared between An Zhen's brows—a tall, lush tree, its wondrous aura rippling, as if it were the origin of life, the embodiment of nature.

"Anzhen, Anzhen, you smell so good~"

The fragrant and elegant fairy felt as if the person in front of her had become one of their kind, no, that aura was far more noble than theirs.

"Are you a child of nature?" the fiery apricot blossom, as red as a glass cabbage, suddenly asked.

"of course not."

“I am the messenger of the Goddess of Life,” Anzhen said. “She is the king of all gods in the divine realm, the deity who controls the laws of life, and also my master’s wife. In fact, my master’s wife’s true form seems to be the Ancient Tree of Life.”

"The Ancient Tree of Life?"

The voice of Youxiang Qiluo Xianpin revealed her admiration for the powerful figure. She didn't doubt An Zhen's words, firstly because of her slight perception of that aura, and secondly because she felt that An Zhen had no reason to lie to her; if the other party really wanted to force her, he would have done so already, after all, this was someone who could negotiate with two dragon kings.

"Youyou, Youyou, you should still take care of the immortal herb for Anzhen."

"Fragrant Fairy Tale" said weakly. "After living a peaceful and tranquil life for ten thousand years, it's really hard to step out of your comfort zone."

"Alright then." After all, I'm doing his work.

……

Somewhere in the ocean.

A silver mech, resembling a mechanical divine weapon, floated in the void, exuding an aura of invincibility. Its arm, now equivalent to a level nine melee soul tool, dripped blood, its dozens-foot-long blade stained with bits of flesh and blood. The sea not far away was stained crimson. The once mighty swarm of Demon Soul Great White Sharks, brought for revenge, had now largely retreated, leaving only a 300,000-cultivation Demon Soul Great White Shark named Little White, four 100,000-year-old sharks, and one 70,000-year-old shark. But apart from the small one that was being protected, the others were all covered in wounds.

"The Sea God's mount, is that all?"

Sitting in the cockpit, Jing Hongchen surveyed the group of demonic soul great white sharks through the integrated perception screen, a look of disappointment flashing in his azure eyes. He had thought that even if a god's mount wasn't as powerful as the Beast God of the Star Dou Great Forest or the Evil Eye Tyrant Ruler of the Demon Forest, it should at least have six or seven hundred thousand years of cultivation.

"Human!" Little White the Demon Soul Great White Shark roared, which, in Jing Hongchen's eyes, already seemed rather fierce but inwardly intimidating. "Do you know the enormity of your crime?!"

"boring."

"Why do you think Tang San's reputation can intimidate me?"

Jing Hongchen didn't want to continue. She'd rather use that time to go back and work with Kong Deming to complete their research on the natal soul tool. If successful, it could be a revolutionary turning point, even changing the soul master system.

"boom!"

A muffled sound rang out from inside the mecha, and a terrifying aura burst forth in all directions. The surrounding space instantly cracked like a shattered mirror. In just a moment, the mecha's condition soared to its peak, as if an ancient god had awakened from its slumber, and bright, gilded patterns instantly covered the entire mecha.

Now that you have come, you have come.

Then take some things back with you.

……

After checking the condition of the immortal herb, Anzhen and the two emperors of ice and snow had another good time.

Legal loli.

A cold and aloof empress.

Truly fair skin and jade-like bones.

"You're bullying us sisters again." With her dark green ponytail loose, Hyotei's petite body lay on Anzhen's body. Her cute Lolita outfit couldn't hide any of her curves, but instead added a lot of innocent allure.

"Husband~" Her long, snow-white hair was casually draped over her shoulders. At this moment, the young Snow Empress did not have any of the majestic aura of the ruler of the far north. Instead, she exuded a strong sense of girlfriend charm.

The sight of two beautiful girls, each with their own unique charm, lying together stirred up Anzhen's recently calmed-down heart once again.

After some time passed.

An Zhen's consciousness returned to reality. The remote soul-guided communication device on the bedside table rang at that moment.

"Your Highness." The one who spoke was a minister promoted by Jing Hongchen, and one of his former confidants in Mingde Hall. "The Hall Master has returned. He said he brought you a gift, but he didn't tell you what it was."

"Oh?" An Zhen's curiosity was piqued.

The world.

We arrived inside Mingdu.

With his current senses, he instantly detected the undisguised presence in the suburbs outside the city.

In the suburbs outside the city, there was a large crater created by the trident of Poseidon. The lake water, originally formed from Poseidon's divine power and brimming with ocean energy, had long been extracted and sealed off. For aesthetic reasons, the area wasn't filled in but instead transformed into a scenic lake. Now, the scenic lake, which had already been opened to the public, has been sealed off again. A tall, silver mech, holding a huge net, threw it into the lake.

"Demon Soul Great White Shark".

Anzhen appeared by the lake and spoke while looking at the creatures in the lake.

It was a shark about ten meters long, with a streamlined white body, somewhat different from the Demon Soul Great White Shark described in the records. Its body was covered with a layer of blue light, indicating that it was a Demon Soul Great White Shark with ice attributes. At this moment, its deep blue eyes, with a hint of liveliness, stared at An Zhen by the lake with hatred.

"How is it?" Jing Hongchen appeared beside An Zhen. "I heard from Kong Deming that you mentioned a small deep-sea demon whale before, but we didn't find it on our last trip. It's probably hidden somewhere by the big one. But I thought this little guy was quite interesting in the Demon Soul Great White Shark group, so I caught it. If you think it's interesting, you can keep it as a pet. If you're not interested, you can kill it."

“This little guy seems a bit special,” Anzhen said.

"really."

Despite possessing only tens of thousands of years of cultivation, he showed no fear in the face of a human who could easily defeat a 300,000-year-old demonic soul great white shark. His deep blue eyes glared at his opponent, as if he might pounce and bite at any moment. No, to be precise, he had already moved. That slender white body charged forward like a swimming dragon, only to be directly repelled into the lake by Jing Hongchen's immense soul power.

"Some of its kin ran away, but it stayed behind with the strong members of its clan." Jing Hongchen recalled the scene at the time. "It seems to have an unusual relationship with that Demon Soul Great White Shark that claimed to be the mount of the Sea God. It should be one of its children or something."

“The little guy is quite angry.” Anzhen looked at the little shark that was trying to attack again.

"After all, it sees us as very bad," Jing Hongchen said nonchalantly. They killed a 100,000-year-old demon soul great white shark, seized its territory, beat up the shark swarm, and even kidnapped them.

But so what? Humans hunt spirit beasts, and spirit beasts kill humans—isn't that normal? Jing Hongchen's compassion is only for humans. Life-and-death struggles between many sea spirit beasts are commonplace, let alone between humans and sea spirit beasts; it's the rule of nature. Of course, out of affection for An Zhen, Jing Hongchen also has a good impression of Zi Ji, whom An Zhen likes, and Di Tian, ​​after all, they are business partners.

"Where is Kong Deming?" Jing Hongchen asked.

“We’re researching our natal soul tools in this small world,” An Zhen said.

Upon hearing this, Jing Hongchen didn't hesitate. He immediately took out a slumber nutrient capsule from his storage soul tool and crawled inside. "Xiao Zhen, just pull me in. Take me back with you when you go back later."

"Hmm." An Zhen activated the Authority of All Beings, and then the Authority of Corruption, temporarily placing the dormant nutrient capsule into the stomach of the virtual world. Then her gaze turned to the Demon Soul Great White Shark.

Seeing the powerful human man suddenly disappear, leaving only a human who looked quite young, the Demon Soul Great White Shark's deep blue eyes gleamed with eager anticipation. Even knowing its precarious situation, it was determined to uphold the dignity of its race and would never become a human's pet.

"Bai Xiuxiu?"

A voice made the Great White Shark, which was about to charge, suddenly stop.

what happened?

The Demon Soul Great White Shark was somewhat bewildered.

How does this guy know what his mother calls her?
An Zhen activated her mental power, using a sixth-tier magic spell: Mental Link.

An invisible spiritual force transformed into chains, connecting Anzhen and the Demon Soul Great White Shark.

“Now we can communicate.” Anzhen’s voice appeared in the mind of the Demon Soul Great White Shark, startling the naive little shark.

"Who are you? What's going on? How do you know what my mother calls me?" A childlike, coquettish voice rang out, carrying a hint of threat.

Meanwhile, the Demon Soul Great White Shark had already swum to the lakeside.

"Wow~"

The Demon Soul Great White Shark suddenly moved, its tail lashing the lake surface, the blue light on its body growing brighter, the lake water churning up waves and rushing towards Anzhen, while a terrifyingly low temperature spread behind it.

"Roar!" A dragon's roar suddenly resounded in the mind of the Demon Soul Great White Shark, like a heavy hammer striking its soul. The terrifying intimidation brought an immense sense of oppression, an oppression from its bloodline, as if the Dragon King who controlled water and ice had unleashed his killing intent. Waves and already frozen ice blocks retreated, rushing towards the Demon Soul Great White Shark, and a trace of the extreme cold of ice struck the Demon Soul Great White Shark's body.

“This little guy is quite brave,” An Zhen said, looking at the Demon Soul Great White Shark shivering from the cold. “No wonder he named himself Dong Qianqiu.”

Judging from the reaction of this demonic great white shark, the one called Bai Xiuxiu is probably Bai Xiuxiu Dong Qianqiu from the original work, Xiao Bai's daughter.

Dong Qianqiu: ?

An Zhen's words even made Dong Qianqiu forget about her frostbite for a moment. It was so strange; this human not only knew how her mother addressed her, but also knew the name she had given herself.

An Zhen waved her hand, and the extreme ice on Dong Qianqiu's body turned into energy and dissipated.

Have you recognized the difference between us?

Anzhen wants to keep a shark as a pet.

"Damn humans!" Dong Qianqiu roared in the mental link, like a stubborn little girl, "I will never give in!"

“Don’t you want to know why I know your name?” Anzhen said.

Dong Qianqiu was taken aback.

I am indeed curious to know.

The world.

Anzhen's figure disappeared.

Dong Qianqiu suddenly felt something on her head.

"By the way, how did the original Poseidon ride your mother back then?"

An Zhen was already a highly skilled dragon rider, but she had absolutely no experience with sharks, the real kind. After all, this kind of mount was quite rare, even in novels.

"Humans!" Dong Qianqiu shook her body.

How dare this guy stand on Dong Qianqiu's head?!

"Little one, don't resist so much." An Zhen's figure appeared in the void, her smooth body making it hard to stand. It was rare to see a little guy who had a lot of screen time in the original story, so An Zhen didn't mind playing with him.

"You said you named yourself Dong Qianqiu, meaning to freeze heaven and earth, to freeze everything. But you don't even have the ultimate ice attribute."

It's understandable for kids to be a bit immature.
