Douluo: Phoenix God Descends, Emperor Flame Burns the Sky

Chapter 222 Using aphrodisiacs? How could you even think of that!

Lin Xiao did not rush to absorb the soul ring.

He placed poison around the cliff and put bottles containing poison pills given by Dugu Bo in various locations.

Then, he began to absorb the spirit rings.

Fortunately, perhaps because the explosion was too loud, or perhaps because of the advantageous location of the cliff.

No spirit beasts came to disturb Lin Xiao's absorption of the spirit ring.

After absorbing the spirit ring, Lin Xiao's spirit power reached level 52.

He carefully collected the poisons around him, then looked at Maple Leaf and said with a smile:
“Maple Leaf, my fifth soul skill is called Phoenix Breaks Through the Nine Heavens.”

"This skill has no other use."

"It can increase my speed by 300%."

"And it also has the effect of breaking through the air."

Lin Xiao genuinely thought this skill was awesome.

A simple mechanism, absolute numerical values.

No matter how powerful other soul skills are, they can only double the body's strength. For example, Dai Mubai's White Tiger Demon God Transformation increases his attack, strength, and defense by 150%, and also has the attribute of armor penetration.

This is already a divine skill that is difficult to surpass.

Although Lin Xiao's speed only increased by three times, which seems less than Dai Mubai's 150% increase in all three attributes, "in martial arts, speed is the only thing that cannot be broken." The fact that Lin Xiao's speed was twice that of Dai Mubai means that the opponent could not even touch him.

Therefore, the attribute bonus he gains during battle is essentially wasted.

Furthermore, the Phoenix Breaks Through the Nine Heavens technique also has the effect of breaking through the air.

"Maple Leaf, the Cloud Piercing Falcon actually has spatial attributes?"

"This 'air-breaking' technique compresses space over short distances, allowing you to dodge attacks or appear in front of the enemy at a faster speed."

Maple Leaf glanced at Lin Xiao, and said unsurprisedly:

“When speed reaches its limit, it is already related to spatial attributes. If the Cloud Piercing Falcon only had the attribute of speed, why would I let you choose it as your fifth spirit ring?”

Lin Xiao's lips curled into a wicked smile.

He held the maple leaves and suddenly activated the "Phoenix Breaks Through the Nine Heavens" skill.

In an instant, Lin Xiao and the maple leaves left only a fleeting afterimage, their whereabouts unknown.

But then a muffled, loud bang was heard.

"boom!"

Most of the rocks on the opposite mountain peak were damaged.

"Bah bah bah!"

Lin Xiao spat out the stones and dust from his mouth, his face filled with a look of utter dismay.

What the hell.

The speed was too fast; my body couldn't adapt at all, and I crashed straight into the mountain!
Fortunately, when he realized he couldn't stop, he immediately activated his Jade Body, transforming into the King of Impact Resistance, which prevented him from suffering a head injury.

Lin Xiao hurriedly looked at the maple leaf he was protecting in his arms, thankfully it was alright.

The other person rolled their eyes, speechless.

Lin Xiao gave an awkward smile.

The joy of acquiring a powerful soul skill vanished, leaving only embarrassment.

Lin Xiao felt the atmosphere had become somewhat silent.

He whispered:

"Maple Leaf, have I already gotten my fifth spirit ring?"

"What are your plans for the future?"

Maple Leaf didn't speak.

She looked at Lin Xiao with extreme disdain and contempt, as if she were still mocking his reckless actions, treating him like a nobody.

Lin Xiao was furious.

"Hey, I'm here to help you get revenge, aren't you even a little bit interested?"

Maple Leaf said with even more disdain:
"Forget it, you'll avenge me?"

"Even if the Dragon God is dead, you can't just take advantage of the half of his inherited power!"

Lin Xiao smiled mysteriously.

"The mountain man has his own clever plan."

"Whether it works or not, it doesn't hurt to give it a try."

"I told you, I'd help you collect some interest first."

Seeing that Lin Xiao looked serious, Feng Ye realized that he wasn't faking it.

I hesitated for a moment.

Lin Xiao... could he really have some way?
Maple Leaf was very curious, "Tell me your method?"

Lin Xiao leaned close to Feng Ye's ear and whispered his explanation.

Maple Leaf's eyes widened suddenly!

She looked at Lin Xiao, her eyes filled with horror!

"Uh, isn't this method a bit unethical?"

Lin Xiao felt a little guilty under his gaze.

"No, Lin Xiao, you're simply a genius!"

Maple Leaf said fiercely:

"That's it!"

"If you can't beat them, can't you at least be disgusting?"

……

We ventured a little deeper into the core area.

Lin Xiao and Feng Ye found a small stream.

"Such a rich sense of life! Is this really the place?"

"I don't know, who cares!"

"Then here?"

"Right here!"

Lin Xiao and Feng Ye excitedly circled the stream in front of them. The two of them, one human and one bird, gave off a sense of being in cahoots, as if they were plotting something bad together.

"Jie Jie Jie~"

“Dear Silver Dragon King, although you are not the Dragon God, or more accurately, you are an independent individual who inherited half of the Dragon God’s power, you are the one who inherited the Dragon God’s legacy.”

"Then don't blame me!"

Maple Leaf's ruby-like eyes were sparkling.

This was the first time she had ever shown that look in her eyes.

Although it was just a bird, Lin Xiao sensed a strong girlish aura about it.

"Lin Xiao, is the dosage of the medicine sufficient?"

"Enough is enough."

What Lin Xiao was about to do was prepare to "poison" someone!
Of course, poison is useless against powerful beings like ferocious beasts, but what if the poison Lin Xiao used wasn't poison in the traditional sense?
He threw in a super nourishing soup!

This is an art name!
Common name: aphrodisiac!
As the old saying goes, "How can the canal be so clear? Because it has a source of living water."

“Lake of Life is a huge lake, and its water comes not only from the sky, but also from the confluence of various small tributaries.”

“Aside from the core area, there is a section of this stream where the vitality is extremely strong and the water quality is noticeably different from ordinary water.”

"Most likely, this is the stream that connects to the Lake of Life!"

Lin Xiao touched his chin.

"Throw the aphrodisiac into the stream, let it flow into the Lake of Life. If you're lucky, it will reach a more inland area, and that's how it will be effective."

"But the probability is too low; if it's diluted too much, it won't be very effective."

"After all, the Lake of Life is just too big."

"Huh? Yes!"

Lin Xiao took out a ten-thousand-year-old herb from the Jade-like Water, and then injected an aphrodisiac made from the same ten-thousand-year-old herb into the herb.

Afterwards, Lin Xiao and Feng Ye followed the stream.

They came to a mountain stream that was connected to the groundwater, a place where neither people nor animals could enter. So Lin Xiao simply stuffed the ancient medicinal herb into the stream.

He showed no sign of distress.

He was willing to sacrifice even a mere thousand-year-old herb to avenge Maple Leaf!

Moreover, the Ice and Fire Yin-Yang Eyes were developed by Ye Qingxian.

Production far exceeds that of the past.

Money should be spent wisely!

After doing all this, Lin Xiao and Feng Ye took off running and arrived at the edge of the core area, quietly observing whether there was any reaction.

……

It takes about a day.

The ancient medicinal herbs drifted along the underground river.

We have arrived at the Lake of Life...
