Douluo: Dragon King's Divine Elegy

Chapter 149 Nan Liujing, who is not tempted by beauty, is at the half-step Spirit Realm.

Passing through the colorful poisonous clouds, the scenery at the bottom of the valley immediately came into view.

A halo of light spread out, and upon closer inspection, a strange lake appeared at the center of the valley floor. The red and dark blue colors intertwined, clearly distinct and untouched by each other, giving it a sense of harmony between yin and yang.

The crimson lake bubbled and steamed, the rising heat distorting the air into flowing ripples; while on the other side, the deep blue lake was surrounded by ice, the biting cold mist spreading continuously, condensing into glistening frost flowers on the shore.

The lake is surrounded by a variety of plants, including more than a hundred rare species that are hard to find elsewhere.

Suddenly, a series of powerful intents swept down from below, clearly not friendly, but hostile.

Zang Xin smiled calmly, a flash of purple light in his eyes, and an even stronger intent spread, instantly tearing apart the hostility.

The next moment, he successfully landed on the grass with Nan Liujing.

"Gentlemen, it's been a long time."

Zang Xin spoke leisurely.

As Nan Liujing's gaze fell upon the strangely shaped plants, they seemed to emanate different light and shadow. Then, several figures dressed in ancient costumes strode over.

Six people in total.

Five men and one woman.

The leader was dressed in purple, with a slender figure and a somewhat androgynous face, exuding a strange and ethereal fragrance.

The other four men all looked wary, while the only woman in red, a stunning beauty, had an extremely hostile expression, surrounded by terrifying heat waves, like a volcano about to erupt.

The woman in purple, Youxiang Qiluo, said coldly, "We would be better off if you hadn't come."

"Look at what you're saying," Zang Xin said, not annoyed. "I brought people here this time only to seek suitable immortal herbs. According to the agreement, we can bring people to select two kinds every hundred years, right?"

Youxiang Qiluo asked in a deep voice, "What does he want?"

All the immortal herbs and ferocious beasts turned to look at Nan Liujing.

The woman in red, with an exceptionally fiery temper, said coldly, "You'd better think carefully before you choose."

Zang Xin narrowed his eyes, exuding a dangerous aura.

Youxiang Qiluo's expression shifted slightly, her eyes signaling Liehuo Xingjiao to remain calm.

"Hmph." The woman in red snorted coldly, but then became obedient.

Nan Liujing said calmly, "First, I want a Star-Spinning Firefly Grass, the older the better."

With a wave of her hand, Youxiang Qiluo summoned a magical herb that flew swiftly from the distant vegetation.

The fairy herb grows to about two feet tall, its flower stems resembling translucent crystals with white-gold veins shimmering inside, like stars weaving through them. It has five leaves that look just like angel feathers. Strangely, even without a breeze, the leaves still flow gently, their edges tinged with a shimmering starlight, making it extremely beautiful.

"This Starry Night Firefly Grass is 70,000 years old."

With a slight lift of her hand, Youxiang Qiluo sent the immortal herb flying to Nan Liujing's front.

He acted swiftly, took out a jade box of suitable size, and immediately filled it in.

"When consuming it, infuse your soul power into the flower branch, and all the medicinal power will automatically flow into the leaves. Then, simply consume them one by one," Youxiang Qiluo said indifferently.

"You can choose another one."

"I will wait until my eyes are dry from gazing into the autumn dew," Nan Liujing said in a startling statement, "ten thousand years!"

"you!!"

Upon hearing this, the expressions of all the immortal herbs and ferocious beasts changed drastically.
The woman in red's eyes were practically spitting fire.

Zang Xin directly blocked Nan Liujing's path: "Everyone, we made an agreement back then that there would be no upper limit to the age of the immortal herbs to be selected. You haven't forgotten that, have you?"

Youxiang Qiluo pretended not to hear and said in a deep voice, "We can take out those under 100,000 years old."

"Are you very angry?" Nan Liujing suddenly asked.

None of the male immortal herbs spoke, their eyes remaining cold. However, the fiery apricot, with her fiery temper, said fiercely, "The 100,000-year-old 'Looking Through Autumn Water' dew can collectively enhance the spiritual power of immortal herbs. This can play a crucial role when the heavenly tribulation descends, guaranteeing a two-fold increase in the tribulation survival rate. Tell me, are we angry or not?"

"I see." Nan Liujing suddenly realized, "Then I won't wait any longer, I'll take you."

"You want me?" The woman's beautiful eyes widened in surprise. When she realized what Nan Liujing was saying, she immediately retorted angrily, "None of you humans are good, especially that Huo Yuhao. I would rather risk my life than be absorbed by humans."

"Don't be too definitive, or you'll regret it later," Nan Liujing said calmly.

Youxiang Qiluo and the others who lived in Bengbu laughed.

"Huh?" The stunning woman laughed in anger. "Human, you are far too arrogant."

"is it?"

Nan Liujing chuckled.

thump~
Suddenly, a resounding vibration rang in everyone's ears.

Everyone was taken aback at first, then sensed something and all eyes fell on Nan Liujing.

As the vibrations intensified, a green-gold light emerged from Nan Liujing's heart. With another vibration, the green-gold light suddenly transformed into ripples, surging like a tide to every corner of the Ice and Fire Yin-Yang Eye. In an instant, countless mysterious and extraordinary life runes appeared in mid-air. Under the radiance, all the plants were dyed with a brilliant golden hue, frantically absorbing all kinds of heaven and earth energy.

Nan Liujing closed his eyes, his mental focus encompassing almost all the plants within the area covered by his domain. He could clearly feel the plants' reverence and even fanaticism towards him, and he could also perceive the world from their perspective.

With just a thought, he can absorb all the plant energy within range and add it to himself, a technique commonly known as temporary level skipping.

Sensing the rapid depletion of his spiritual energy, Nan Liujing did not activate his natural domain for long, withdrawing it after a few seconds.

After the feast ended, the Ice and Fire Yin-Yang Eye returned to calm, but the lingering golden luster of the plants still told that what had just happened was not an illusion.

"you……"

Previously hostile, Liehuo Xingjiao suddenly stared blankly, "You are... the Child of Nature!"

Son of Nature?

Zang Xin was somewhat bewildered, but he noticed that the eyes of the previously hostile beasts had all become clear.

"This……"

He was stunned, but the ferocious beasts went berserk.

The look in Nan Liujing's eyes changed from sneer to fervor, even respect.

Yu Xiang Qiluo suddenly pushed her companion away, a fawning smile on her face: "Greetings, my lord."

boom!
Like being struck by lightning, Zang Xin was completely dumbfounded.

Is this still the same unruly king of immortal herbs?
"Please, no need for the title 'Lord,' I can't accept it." Nan Liujing shook his head. "After all, I'm just a self-righteous human being."

Youxiang Qiluo's lips twitched slightly, and the other immortal herbs subconsciously glanced at Liehuo Xingjiaoshu, creating an awkward atmosphere.

The stunning woman's shock turned into an awkward laugh as she said sheepishly, "I can explain."

Nan Liujing smiled and said, "I still prefer your unruly demeanor from just now."

Lie Huoxing bit her red lips, then resolutely bent her voluptuous body and bowed to Nan Liujing in apology: "I was wrong, I'm sorry!"

"It's boring." Nan Liujing was too lazy to tease these untouched fairy herbs.

"You forgive me?" Liehuo Xing's beautiful eyes lit up with joy.

"As a child of nature, one must naturally have a kind and tolerant heart," said Nan Liujing.

Just then, a beam of light from a seven-colored poisonous cloud fell upon him, and it seemed to be filled with endless radiance.

Youxiang Qiluo, Liehuo Xingjiaoshu, and the other immortal herbs all stared wide-eyed. Having never experienced the harsh realities of society, they were truly too naive. Upon hearing this, their eyes became even more reverent.

They were just looking at each other with disdain and contempt. As expected of the children of nature, they are indeed broad-minded.

Seeing this, Nan Liujing thought to himself, "It's a good thing I got the identity of a Child of Nature from the Golden Ancient Tree, otherwise it wouldn't be so easy to talk to these immortal herbs. Unless I learn from the Snow Emperor and use brute force to suppress them, they probably won't pay any attention to me."

"Could someone please tell me what the Child of Nature is?" Zang Xin asked疑惑地.

Yu Xiang Qi Luo glanced at him and said indifferently, "Children of Nature, to be precise, are the seeds of inheritance recognized by nature. Generally speaking, children of nature will not be born, and once a child of nature appears, it means that the environment of our plane has completely declined."

"As a divine herb, we can all sense that the life core of this plane has not perished, but it chose to pass on its inheritance to a human. This is enough to show that even it cannot restore the damage caused by natural extinction. It can only rely on the current rulers of the world, namely you humans, to repair the environment."

"To be honest, you Tang Clan members are really lucky. The first Tang San and Huo Yuhao from ten thousand years ago were both members of the Tang Clan. In addition, there's the Lord. What kind of incredible luck did your sect have?"

Zang Xin looked regretful and said helplessly, "This child is not one of our Tang Clan."

"Oh?" Youxiang Qiluo complained, "That's strange. Your Tang Clan has occupied the Ice and Fire Yin-Yang Well for so many years, and you've killed anyone who dared to come. Why have you changed your ways today?"

Zang Xin's forehead creased with annoyance: "I already said we didn't kill them; they just wandered in by mistake and got caught up in the chaos."

"Yes, yes, yes." Youxiang Qiluo echoed twice, then ignored him and said to Nan Liujing with a smile, "Master, I won't say anything more. If you are willing, the six of us, including the other 100,000-year-old immortal herbs, can take whatever we want, or even empty the Ice and Fire Yin-Yang Well."

“Yes.” The other five immortal herbs quickly chimed in.

With the help of the Children of Nature, they would be completely unafraid of heavenly tribulations. If they had the opportunity to grow up near the core of life in the plane, it would be equivalent to a different kind of immortality, which would be even more comfortable than being in the Yin-Yang Well of Ice and Fire.

Upon hearing this, Zang Xin immediately became displeased.

Before he could say anything, a young man with deep eyes stepped forward and said respectfully, "My lord, my true form is the Dew of Ten Thousand Years of Longing. If you give me a definite answer, I will immediately offer my true form to you."

"I can do it too!"

Liehuo Xingjiao made a startling statement: "Not only my true form, but I'm also a woman after I transform. If you're willing, you can taste this body as you please, consider it my courtesy for offending you." "There's no need for that!" Nan Liujing was shocked by these lewd words and quickly refused.

Zang Xin couldn't help but glance at him a few times.

Young people are full of energy and can resist the temptation of beautiful plants, that's great!
Nan Liujing quickly cupped his hands and said, "Your Majesty, you gave me two spiritual plants back then, and I will naturally keep my promise. Since you want the 'Looking Through Autumn Water Dew,' then it is."

"Good." Zang Xin nodded in satisfaction, becoming increasingly pleased with Nan Liujing. He was neither greedy nor arrogant; only someone like him, in a high position, could represent the future of the mainland.

After gazing intently, Lu Yu's face lit up with joy. She raised an eyebrow at her companion with ice-blue hair, whose former self was none other than the Eight-Cornered Mystic Ice Grass that ascended to heaven with the Spirit Ice Douluo Huo Yuhao ten thousand years ago.

The other immortal herbs, though disappointed, were not discouraged and offered their blessings in turn.

"Let's not delay, let's absorb it now," Zang Xin said.

The Nanliu scenic spot nodded.

Looking longingly, Lu respectfully said, "Please come with me."

The surrounding plants automatically parted to make way for it.

Watching Wang Chuanqiushuilu and Nan Liujing leave, Youxiang Qiluo whispered to Zang Xin, "Amorous Douluo, forgive my bluntness, but the birth of the Child of Nature means that the core of the plane's life has already regarded him as the future of the plane. Although the Lord is not one of your Tang Sect, you had better wholeheartedly assist him. Otherwise, when the day of the plane's collapse comes, everything will be over."

Zang Xin's expression was solemn.

These words weren't just spoken to him by Youxiang Qiluo; in fact, Wuqing Douluo Cao Dezhi also told him about the importance of Nan Liujing.

Judging from his ability to devour the primordial energy of the Abyss plane, humanity must protect him in order to preserve a glimmer of hope when the Abyss launches a full-scale invasion.

Yu Xiang Qi Luo continued, "If possible, please allow the master more times to enter the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well."

Zang Xin looked at him.

The fragrant and elegant women gazed at each other calmly.

Zang Xin was silent for a few seconds, then said, "I will discuss it with Lao Cao when I get back."

Youxiang Qiluo smiled.

Suddenly, Liehuo Xingjiao walked up and said, "Xiangxiang, can you help me think of a way?"

"What?" Yu Xiang Qi Luo asked in confusion.

“A way to make the Lord truly forgive me,” Liehuo Xingjiaoshu said again.

Yu Xiang Qi Luo teased, "Weren't you planning to offer your body? I think this is perfect."

"Get lost!" Liehuo Xingjiao said irritably. "If I were to take human form, I'd be considered a top beauty, right? The fact that my lord isn't even tempted shows how strong his will is; he would never be seduced by beauty. Do me a favor and think of a way."

Yu Xiang Qi Luo scratched her head. "How am I supposed to come up with something for you?"

"Why don't you give him the hot glue?" Zang Xin suddenly suggested.

"Send hot glue?" Liehuo Xingjiao looked at him subconsciously.

Zang Xin said calmly, "Your master's teacher is a level 99 fire attribute limit douluo. For many years, she has been unable to break through to the quasi-god realm because the attribute of the Heavenly Phoenix Martial Soul can only reach half a step of the limit. If she had the Blazing Glue, she would surely be able to soar to the sky. In that case, I would not only forgive you, but I would also owe you a favor."

Liehuo Xingjiao's eyes lit up instantly.

"When you deliver the hot glue, remember to say it was my idea," Zang Xin added.

Liehuo Xingjiao was taken aback for a moment, then exchanged glances with Youxiang Qiluo and the other companions. She then smiled knowingly and patted her ample chest, "No problem."

the other side.

Nan Liujing has successfully consumed the Dew of Longing. As for his soul and seed, the former is stored in the Sea of ​​Spirit and the latter in his heart, and they will not be fused as soul spirits.

The reason for longing for him is quite simple: Nan Liujing wants to enhance his spiritual power.

Because other immortal herbs, apart from the Fiery Apricot and the Eight-Cornered Ice Grass which provide the Ice and Fire Refining Body, have basically no effect on him, making them neither useful nor worth discarding.

After all, the dimensional imprint has already increased his soul power cultivation speed to a considerable level. Coupled with the enhancement of his status as the Child of Nature, it is no exaggeration to say that his current cultivation speed is no worse than that of the Underworld Emperor Harosa.

A soft halo surrounded him, and a cool breeze quickly flowed from his limbs into his brain. A warm sensation made Nan Liujing feel a sense of exhilarating comfort. In the darkness, he seemed to be able to easily understand everything in the world without even looking at it.

For example, the tiny particles within the seven-colored poisonous cloud, the changes in elemental concentration in the primordial energy of heaven and earth, emotional changes, and the specific appearance of the elemental origin.

With a little guidance, all elements will rush in, but they cannot empower themselves.

A slight leakage of spiritual energy is like cutting apart the world, as if forming a world within a world. However, it also has its drawbacks, namely that it is not perfect, with many gaps, and cannot form an absolutely closed spiritual world.

hum~
Above Nan Liujing's head, space distorted, and suddenly, a pair of eerie pupils appeared, along with his own eyes emitting an eerie glow.

Time passes slowly.

As night falls and the sunlight ceases to provide illumination, the Ice and Fire Yin-Yang Eyes suddenly reveal an unspoiled scene, with only the fire springs and ice springs emitting a gentle glow.

Slowly opening his eyes, Nan Liujing's eerie light faded as he thought to himself, "I never imagined that relying on the 'Looking Through Autumn Water Dew' and the external soul bone of the Evil Eye, which has advanced to over 90,000 years ago, I could only barely raise my spiritual power to the half-step Spirit Domain Realm. Breaking through the bottleneck next will probably be more difficult than I imagined. Originally, Tang Wulin of the Time and Space Realm only received the reward by killing the Abyss Emperor. If I want to advance quickly, perhaps I can only take this path."

"My lord, you are awake."

Several figures rushed over from a distance, including Zang Xin.

"How do you feel?" Zang Xin's eyes showed a hint of surprise. With his level of spiritual power, he was actually unable to see through the other party.

"Everything went smoothly," Nan Liujing said.

"That's good." Zang Xin nodded.

"My lord." Liehuo Xingjiao stepped forward respectfully, presenting a semi-transparent gelatinous substance that emitted an extremely hot aura with both hands.

"What are you doing?" Nan Liujing's heart stirred slightly.

Lie Huoxing Jiaoshu respectfully said, "This is Blazing Glue, a treasure I have accumulated little by little over the past ten thousand years. This piece is enough to allow any fire attribute soul master to raise their attribute to the extreme, and even evolve their martial soul without any problem. I heard from the Amorous Douluo that your teacher is a fire attribute soul master, and because of the attribute problem, he has been stuck at the demigod realm for a long time. I think that by using it, he can successfully break through to the quasi-god realm."

"I only ask that you accept it and forgive my previous rash behavior."

Nan Liujing looked at Zang Xin, who maintained a smile but did not speak.

Nan Liujing looked at Chijiao again, a different emotion appearing in his eyes.

The fact that she had never been able to break through to the Quasi-God level was indeed a regret in the teacher's heart. She had even given up hope of breaking through. With the Blazing Glue, she thought it would make the teacher happy and give their side an additional Quasi-God combat power.

"I accept your kindness." Nan Liujing released a ball of soul power, which enveloped the blazing glue, and then hid it in the jade box.

"Then you'll have to forgive me if you accept the burning glue," said Liehuo Xingjiao with a smile.

“I never blamed you, so how can I forgive you?” Nan Liujing smiled.

"Then I'm relieved." Liehuo Xingjiao breathed a sigh of relief.

“The matter is settled, so we should take our leave,” Zang Xin said.

"My lord, if you have another chance, you must come back to see us. Even if you don't need it, you can give it away." Youxiang Qiluo was very reluctant to part. She had finally found a chance to leave safely, but Zang Xin was standing there.

He had considered using the Dragon King's Soul to ruthlessly kill Zang Xin, but since it had never been used in actual combat, he gave up on the idea.

Nan Liujing said calmly, "Everyone, we'll meet again someday."

Goodbye, my lord!

The fairy herbs responded.

Zang Xin grabbed Nan Liujing with his backhand and rushed out of the Ice and Fire Yin-Yang Well.

After leaving Sunset Forest, he had just gotten into the car when he said, "I will have someone send the Azure Phosphorus Nine Absolute Flowers to Tianfeng."

"Thank you for the gift, senior," Nan Liujing said.

"It's easy."

Zang Xin didn't say anything, sat in the driver's seat, and drove back to Tiandou City.

Nan Liujing glanced at the dark night sky, feeling relaxed, and took out her phone to check it out.

As Nan Liujing clicked on the spam message as usual, preparing to delete the annoying numbers next to it, she inadvertently glanced at the message content, and her pupils froze instantly.

"What's wrong?" Zang Xin seemed to sense something and subconsciously looked over.

"It's nothing." Nan Liujing put away his phone and said with a faint smile, "Someone messed up during the final exams."

Zang Xin, unsuspecting, chuckled, "If you ask me, trainees who don't obey should be promoted to officers."

“He really deserves a promotion.” Nan Liujing was also smiling, but it was unusually cold.

Tian Dou City, a street corner.

Nan Liujing stepped off the soul-guided vehicle and watched Zang Xin leave.

He turned and blended into the crowd, his face extremely gloomy.

"Sister Xia, please help me."

"Just leave it to me."

Xia Mi's indifferent voice echoed.
