Douluo Dalu: Ice Snake Martial Spirit, Infinite Evolution

Chapter 158 Lovesickness and Heartbreak
"The little white flower on that rock is the Acacia 'Heartbreak Red,' born for love and dying for love."

The Fragrant Silk Immortal Herb introduced itself to Dugu Han: "It is the most divine among all our immortal herbs, but it is unwilling to develop wisdom in order to silently protect its unwavering devotion to love."

"However... it seems you cannot acknowledge a master."

Youxiang Qiluo Xianpin looked at Dugu Han strangely.

The Acacia Heartbreak Red wants to recognize its master, and can only love one person in its lifetime.

Although it doesn't understand human emotions and love, it can tell from their conversation that Dugu Han loves more than one person.

A woman named Le Xuan, a woman named Ning Tian, ​​and Wu Ming standing in front of her.

"You don't need to worry about the matter of recognizing the Lord!"

Dugu Han stretched out his hand and said, "This is only one Lovesick Heartbreak Red Flower. There's another one left. Give me the other one too!"

“As you know, Octagon sacrificed himself for me, so I know everything about the Ice and Fire Yin-Yang Eye.”

"But having two flowers won't do you any good!"

The fragrant and exquisite fairy muttered, "This is a cherished item. A person can only love one person in their lifetime, and can only recognize one master."

"Give me!"

Dugu Han looked at it indifferently.

"Here you go, here you go!"

The fragrant and exquisite fairy plant opened its petals, controlling a heartbroken red flower whose roots were connected to a dark stone, and floated out.

Then it controlled the acacia blossom, which fell into Dugu Han's hand, and muttered softly, "A person can only love one person, it's no use giving it to you."

Dugu Han glanced at it, then focused his gaze on the Acacia Heartbreak Red in his hand.

It's true that the Love-Sick Red is a cherished object, and it's also true that it can only be devoted to one person for life if it wants to be its owner.

However, he never considered that he would recognize the love-sick heartbreak red as his master.

Looking at the Acacia Heartbreak Red petal that had fallen into his hand, Wu Ming asked curiously, "What is this?"

"Lovesickness is red!"

Dugu Han explained, "Legend has it that there was a young man in the mortal world who loved flowers very much. He was extremely fond of tending to flowers and planting trees. Whenever the petals fell, he would be filled with endless sorrow and weep bitterly. His love for flowers moved the Flower Goddess in heaven..."

He had just finished telling the story of the Acacia Heartbreak Red when he suddenly felt his right hand being held by a soft little hand.

He glanced at the small hand intertwined with his, then turned to look at Wu Ming, only to see that Wu Ming's eyes were already red, staring blankly at the Love-Sickness Heartbreak Red in his hand.

"It's just a legend."

Dugu Han smiled and wiped the corner of her eye.

"But this legend is very touching!"

Wu Ming murmured, "The Flower Goddess was captured and taken back to the God Realm. The boy wept over the flower every day. Even though an old man with white hair told him that as long as he destroyed that white flower, the Flower Goddess could shed her divine body and become a mortal to reunite with him, he did not do anything to harm the Flower Goddess for his own selfish reasons. Instead, he carefully cared for her and eventually died of lovesickness."

"Truly touching!"

Dugu Han had to agree with this.

Compared to Dong Yong and Liu Yanchang from his previous life's mythology, the love of the boy in the story of the Red Heartbreak of Love was incomparably pure.

It is probably for this reason that the Acacia Heartbreak Red can be used to inherit the position of the God of Love!

Dugu Han sighed inwardly, put away the Acacia Heartbreak Red in his hand, and then walked towards the Acacia Heartbreak Red in the distance.

Wu Ming followed.

She walked to the acacia tree, looked at Dugu Han, and said, "I want to try recognizing it as my master."

"no!"

Dugu Han decisively rejected her and then directly put away the Acacia Heartbreak Red.

"I'll give it a try!"

Wu Ming pursed her lips and stared into his eyes.

"no!"

"The meaning of the 'Acacia Heartbreak Red' is different. It is not just about recognizing a master. It also has a high possibility of representing a deity."

Dugu Han explained, "As long as you raise your attributes to the extreme, you will eventually be able to inherit the position of the Sun God. Le Xuan can also inherit the position of the Moon God, but Xiao Tian doesn't have a position yet. This is what I prepared for Xiao Tian."

"The position of the Sun God, the position of the Moon God, and a position prepared for Ning Tian!"

Wu Ming stared at him in shock: "Gods haven't appeared for ten thousand years, how did you obtain so many divine inheritances?"

"It wasn't obtained by me either. The Moon Goddess's inheritance is Le Xuan's family's inheritance. The Sun God's position was chosen by the Moon Goddess. Xiao Tian's position is just a guess, and there's no way to be sure yet."

Dugu Han shook his head. The idea that the Love-Sickness Heartbreak Red was an artifact passed down from the God of Love was just a reasonable guess.

To determine whether this is indeed the case, we need to enter the Valley of Love and Destiny.

However, Qiankun Wenqing Valley is controlled by Ning Rongrong.

Thinking of this, Dugu Han subconsciously glanced at the Moon Goddess's Tear in his hand.

"I need to go to the far north sometime and ask the moon goddess about the goddess of love."

He murmured to himself, then suddenly remembered something, took out a bead burning with flames from the Moon Goddess's Tear and handed it to Wu Ming: "This is the Blazing Fire Pearl, condensed by the Blazing Yang Spring by the Blazing Apricot Blossom."

"Inlaying it into a weapon can give it the effect of extreme fire, provided that the weapon can withstand the burning of extreme fire."

"It can also be fused into a soul bone to increase the age of the soul bone. When I fused the left arm bone of the Ice Jade Scorpion with that octagonal Xuanbing Crystal, it increased the age by 15,000 years, just like this Blazing Fire Pearl."

Dugu Han gave her a brief explanation of the effects of the Blazing Fire Pearl, and then said, "You can decide for yourself whether to use it to enhance your 50,000-year-old right arm bone, or to find a suitable weapon in the future and integrate it into it."

"Upgrade your soul bone!"

Wu Ming took the Blazing Explosion Pearl and pondered for a moment before saying, "Weapons that can withstand extreme fire are hard to find, and I don't use weapons much anyway, so I might as well fuse them into my right arm's soul bone."

"Let's begin here!" Dugu Han said with a smile.

"Row!"

Wu Ming nodded, sat cross-legged on the ground, and slowly placed the Fiery Blazing Pearl in his left hand onto his right arm.

While Wu Ming was fusing with the Blazing Fire Pearl, Dugu Han approached the Fragrant Silk Fairy Item: "I have something I want to ask you."

"What is it?" asked Youxiang Qiluo Xianpin.

The other medicinal herbs also looked at him curiously.

As long as they are not required to be sacrificed, nor are their soul rings or soul bones taken, they can tell you anything they know.

Dugu Han thought for a moment and said, "I have a friend who is level 80 and needs to absorb an eighth soul ring. The target I have chosen for her is a Blue Silver Emperor with 190,000 years of cultivation."

"However, the Blue Silver Emperor, a plant-type soul beast, has an extremely strong ability to hide and is very difficult to find, so I would like to ask if you have any way to lure it out."

Dugu Han smiled and said, "You are all immortal herbs, so you should have a way!"

"There must be a way!"

Qiluo Tulip, standing nearby, said smugly, "As long as they are plant-type soul beasts and their cultivation levels are not too different, they will all be suppressed by us."

"So what's the solution?" Dugu Han asked with a smile.

"The solution is..." Qiluo Tulip opened her mouth, then fell silent.

The other immortal herbs that wanted to speak also fell silent.

There are definitely solutions, and the simplest and most practical one is to look at their origins.

They are all immortal herbs, naturally surpassing other plant-type soul beasts in terms of level. Moreover, they all have a cultivation of 100,000 years, so their essence has a fatal attraction for plant-type soul beasts.

If they can bring out some of their original essence, they will definitely be able to attract other plant-type soul beasts.

However… Dugu Han was referring to a soul beast with 190,000 years of cultivation.

A soul beast of this cultivation level cannot be attracted by a mere amount of essence; it requires a great deal of immortal herb essence.

"Is it difficult to handle?"

Dugu Han frowned. He thought this would be easy for these immortal herbs!

"We need our...source!"

After hesitating for a moment, Youxiang Qiluo Xianpin revealed her solution.

"How much do you need?"

Dugu Han pondered for a moment and asked, "How much harm will it cause you?"

"That's a 190,000-year-old plant-type soul beast. Our small amount of source energy can't attract it; it would need at least one-tenth of mine."

After saying this, Youxiang Qiluo Xianpin hardened her heart and directly separated one-tenth of her own essence.

A ball of mysterious purple light floated out from its open flower stamen and landed in Dugu Han's hand.

"faint!"

"faint!"

Upon seeing this, the group of immortal herbs were immediately shocked.

Qiluo Tulip exclaimed in shock, "Are you crazy!"

"Are you crazy, Youyou? Do you know that taking out so much essence at once will put you into a deep sleep?" Eight-Petaled Fairy Orchid said anxiously.

"There's nothing we can do about it, we can't beat him."

Youxiang Qiluo Xianpin gave a weak, bitter laugh.

Then it looked at Dugu Han and said weakly, "I hope you can keep your promise and revive Bajiao and Ajiao after you become a god, and then help us get rid of the restrictions of this hellish place."

"I promise you!"

Dugu Han looked at the purple ball of light in his hand and solemnly agreed.

"Thank you!"

The fragrant fairy smiled weakly, then closed its petals and fell into a deep sleep.

"Don't worry, the first thing I will do after I become a god is to help you escape from here and give you freedom."

Dugu Han made his promise to the sleeping Youxiang Qiluo Immortal.

He then collected the essence of the Fragrant Silk Immortal Herb into the Moon Goddess's Tear, and then walked towards Wu Ming, waiting for her to fuse it with the Blazing Fire Bursting Pearl.

The integration process went very smoothly.

In just one hour, she successfully fused the Blazing Inferno Bead into the 50,000-year-old right arm bone.

"The Soul Bone Skill hasn't changed much."

Wu Ming stood up and examined his right arm soul bone: "However, the age limit has increased by 15,000 years, and it is now about 65,000 years."

"The Blazing Apricot Blossom was formed at the same time as the Blazing Gel. It's already quite good that it can enhance one's strength by 15,000 years!"

After Dugu Han finished speaking with a smile, he reached out his hand to her.

Wu Ming subconsciously reached out her little hand.

A 'snap' sound rang out.

Dugu Han slapped her small hand away and said, "Give me back the Fragrant Silk Immortal Pill I gave you before. Your Golden Crow Sacred Flame has already evolved into the Ultimate Flame, so it's useless to you now!"

"You should have told me earlier!"

Wu Ming rubbed her aching hand and glared at him, then took out a dark purple pill from her waist and handed it to him.

Dugu Han put it away, then glanced at the ravaged canyon and shook his head, saying, "Let's go. Apart from what's below the spring, there's nothing of value left here!"

What else is beneath the spring?

"Something terrifying."

As he spoke, Dugu Han unfurled his Ice Emperor Wings and flew away.

"Wait for me!"

Wu Ming quickly took out his flying soul tool and followed.

Although she can fly, using a flying soul tool saves more soul power.

With Dugu Han intentionally slowing down, Wu Ming quickly caught up.

She smiled and moved closer to Dugu Han, flying alongside him. Then she took his hand and they intertwined their fingers.

"Whee!"

Wu Ming smiled happily.

From now on, Wu Ming is a woman with a boyfriend!
Dugu Han glanced at him: "Still laughing? Have you thought about how to tell Le Xuan?"

"No, you really want me to say it?"

Wu Ming stared at him, bewildered.

"Didn't you say that yourself?"

"But how am I supposed to tell Lexuan this?!"

Wu Ming's smile faded.

How could she possibly open her mouth to say that?

Are you suggesting I say, "Le Xuan, for the sake of our best friendship, give me half of your man?"
Zhang Lexuan would have to use Blood Moon Eclipse to wipe her out!
"I'm teasing you!"

Dugu Han chuckled and squeezed her small hand: "I'll tell you when we get back."

"No, I say!"

Wu Ming gritted her teeth: "I've been single for so many years and finally found a man. I'll accept whatever punishment Le Xuan wants!"

Dugu Han just smiled when he heard this and didn't say anything more.

However, he still decided to go back and talk to Zhang Lexuan himself, since this was something a woman shouldn't be the one to say.

The two moved very quickly, and before they knew it, they had flown out of the range of the Azure Phosphorous Poison Mist and continued flying towards the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School.

Sunset Forest and Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School are both located outside Tian Dou City and are not far apart. At the speed of Dugu Han and his companion, it only took them twenty minutes to arrive at the gate of Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School.
