Douluo Continent: I, Tang Wulin, a Kamen Rider

Chapter 191 Immortal Herb: *Drip*, Sacrifice Card
Soon, after everyone and the immortal herbs made an agreement and contract, a new problem was placed before them.

That means there are too many magical herbs, and not enough people to use them!

There was no way around it; even if the most suitable immortal herbs and ferocious beasts were chosen for Xie Xie and the others to form contracts with, there were still a large number of immortal herbs that had no place to be found.

After all, Tang Wulin's battle with the Dark Blood Demon had caused many immortal herbs to reach the required age and intelligence.

Furthermore, these immortal herbs all fanatically believed that Tang Wulin was essentially the incarnation of the Lord of the World.

In the future, there is a 100% chance that he will become a god, or even become the ultimate golden thigh of the god realm.

Therefore, these rare herbs, which may be in short supply and difficult to consume even once in a lifetime, are considered precious by others.

When it came to Tang Wulin, his companions were in such high demand that even a group of immortal herbs would beg to be sacrificed for him and still not qualify.

Only those who have been buried among the ranks of ferocious beasts for at least 100,000 years can step forward to promote themselves.

Even so, it depends on whether Xie Xie and his companions' martial souls are compatible, as well as the gender and appearance of the immortal herb, to decide who Xie Xie and his companions will sign a contract with.

After all, there are far too many artificially ripened immortal herbs, and there are also quite a few immortal herbs whose original form is the same.

Even the Fiery Apricot and the Eight-Cornered Ice Grass actually have several younger sisters and brothers who have just developed sentience, clamoring to cling to their older sisters and brothers and get on the bus together.

Therefore, we cannot choose you simply because your attributes match those of Xie Xie and others.

You need to consider what advantages you have compared to your peers.

For example, in the cases of Xu Xiaoyan, Ye Xinglan, and Wu Siduo, gender is directly restricted.

Apart from the compatibility with martial souls, any non-female immortal herbs must be discarded after transformation.

Even so, the beautiful female fairies lining up to go to the Three Women's side were still in high demand.

There's no way around it; there are just too many powerful cultivators clinging to their coattails. It's fair to say that the entire Ice and Fire Yin-Yang Eye is practically devoid of any cultivators who haven't reached a certain age or developed sentience yet.

Basically, everything that can run, move, and create clones has come.

Therefore, even with the barriers, Xie Xie and his group still signed so many contracts that they couldn't fit everyone in.

But this was simply not enough for the group of immortal herbs who had already witnessed Tang Wulin's incredible power!
With only a few people, how are they going to divide it up?

Can't you, Tang Wulin, make more friends and take more humans with you?
With so few people, who are we going to sacrifice?

You look down on our Ice and Fire Yin-Yang Eye, don't you!

If the Blue Silver Emperor from 20,000 years ago saw this, people who didn't know better would think that we immortal herbs wouldn't offer sacrifices!

Yes, they simply don't want to miss this once-in-a-lifetime opportunity in their later years that guarantees a 1000% chance of advancement!

Thus, the famous scene of job seekers, with their relentless competition and intense competition, emerged.

According to some immortal herbs, in addition to her existing effects and the soul rings and spirits of ferocious beasts, she is also good at romance, making her a true love assistant.

Another fairy herb chimed in, saying that she was not only good at dating, but also at stirring people's hearts. After consuming her, one could subtly attract the opposite sex's affections.

Some even claim that the herb itself, once ingested, can emit an alluring fragrance that attracts the opposite sex! Guaranteed to be the kind they like!
LOL, the two extremes have been reversed.

"Ahem, my benefactor, although our clansmen have grown far beyond what we used to be with your help, which has given you some headaches, we actually have another secret."

"Below those two springs of ice and fire near where we live, there are actually two dragon souls containing divine auras," said Qiluo Tulip, stepping forward.

"Those are the souls of the Ice Dragon King and the Fire Dragon King. Of course, their physical bodies also exist below. We immortal herbs were able to grow up thanks to those two Ice and Fire Dragon Kings."

"Of course, too much time has passed. The souls of those two lords have long since lost their minds. After countless years of effort, we have finally summoned the remnant souls of the two dragon lords to protect this corner of our land. It is because of the existence of those two lords that we are able to barely retain a sliver of hope amidst the endless demands of the Tang Sect."

"Now that our benefactor—no, our lord—has accepted us, we should naturally offer the secrets of the Yin-Yang Well of Ice and Fire to our lord."

"I imagine that when facing those formidable enemies, my lord will be able to relax a lot in the future."

Upon hearing this, Tang Wulin fell silent for a moment, but still shook his head.

"I understand your intentions, but there's no need for that. In my opinion, those two Dragon Kings are already exhausted enough. Let them rest peacefully here from now on."

"Also, since you have already made a pact with Xie Xie and the others, you no longer need to call me your benefactor. Just call me Wu Lin."

"As for all difficulties and enemies, I will bear them all myself, and all the consequences will fall upon me!"

After saying that, Tang Wulin stepped forward and clapped his hands before Qiluo Tulip could reply.

The next second, the Tree of Life, shimmering with brilliant light and radiating endless vitality and a fantastical aura, appeared in the world!
The group of immortal herbs immediately began to tremble involuntarily.

Even the Qiluo Tulip, the king of immortal herbs with nearly 300,000 years of cultivation, submitted to the golden tree before it at this moment.

Because this is etched into their instinctive reverence; it is the embodiment of absolute vitality and the difference between them.

In front of this golden tree, these so-called treasures of the Soul Master world, the kings of all herbs, are no different from roadside weeds!

"It truly is the aura of the Mother of All Things! No wonder the Lord does not accept our sacrifices."

"Aside from his own wishes and agreements with others, he didn't need anything at all!" Kira Tulip murmured to herself, mesmerized.

Time passed slowly, as if sensing that yesterday's earth-shattering battle had finally come to an end, and the sun slowly peeked out.

He unleashed his myriad golden rays, bringing everyone a dazzling light that allowed them to see the light of day again.

Yes, dawn has finally broken.

"Beep beep!"

On the ground, countless soul-guided police cars, soul-guided troops, and soul-guided vehicles had already arrived at the site where Tang Wulin and his group's train had crashed the day before.

On the ground, warning tape, disaster relief tents, various fire-fighting measures, and medical equipment had been set up early.

The place was not too noisy, only filled with the relief of relaxation and the slogans of the post-disaster reconstruction workers.

Because they all knew that the culprit behind all this evil, the Dark Blood Demon, had been successfully defeated!
Thinking of this, Zhenhua couldn't help but look at Tang Wulin and his group, who were surrounded by a group of survivors not far away.

"Xie Xie, thank you, little heroes. Thank you for killing the Dark Blood Demon, and thank you for saving us."

"If it weren't for you, my family would still be suffering in the hands of the Dark Blood Demon, unable to die in peace."

Families whose members had been killed and transformed into vengeful spirits by the Dark Blood Demon expressed their gratitude to Tang Wulin.

"Yes, thank you. If you hadn't brought my daughter back to life, I wouldn't be able to continue living."

There was also a mother on the train whose daughter had died earlier, who expressed her purest gratitude to Tang Wulin.

"That's right, young heroes. If you hadn't successfully killed the Dark Blood Demon, we wouldn't even dare to imagine what kind of miserable world we would be living in with such a demon god in the world."

Furthermore, a group of wise individuals with foresight expressed their purest gratitude for Tang Wulin and his companions' demon-slaying efforts.

Tang Wulin and the others were at a loss for how to respond to the gratitude of these people, and could only accept it silently.

After a while, the real bigwigs of Tiandou City and a group of reporters arrived.

The survivors were also moved to other locations for further examination and reporting.

Despite the friendly gestures and interview requests from these important figures and reporters, Tang Wulin showed no intention of engaging with them. Instead, he quietly invited Mo Lan's father, Mo Wu, a fellow high-ranking official in Heaven Dou City, to step forward and speak with him.

As for this, Mo Wu, who already knew that Tang Wulin did not want to communicate too much with politicians, and who was being interviewed, stepped in after confirming Tang Wulin's wishes again.

There was no other way; his only daughter, Mo Lan, had died at the hands of the Dark Blood Demon at a young age.

Tang Wulin pulled her back from the brink of death once again!

In gratitude for this favor, Mo Wu said that although he could not help Tang Wulin in terms of combat strength, he would take care of any trivial matters!

Meanwhile, having shaken off the swarm of reporters, Tang Wulin looked at Zhenhua, who had been following them.

"So, you are Uncle Makino's close friend?"

"Yes." Zhenhua nodded, and then introduced himself.

“I am that guy’s good friend. My name is Zhenhua. His battle armor and mecha were also made by me.”

Upon hearing this, Xie Xie and the others were slightly taken aback.

You should know that Mu Ye is wearing the rarest four-word battle armor and god-level mecha in the world!

And this was actually made by the uncle in front of me!

That is
"So you are the master craftsman Zhenhua! I've often heard Teacher Mu Chen mention you."

Tang Wulin seemed to have remembered something and said.

Meanwhile, upon hearing Tang Wulin's words, Zhenhua's chest heaved slightly, and his eyes clearly glazed over when he heard the name Mu Chen.

Good heavens, no wonder Mu Chen gave up his comfortable position as president of the East Sea City Blacksmith Association to go to Shrek City to suffer.

So Mu Chen was hiding his true intentions all along!
He had always thought Mu Xi was the most outstanding young person of this generation, but he never expected this.

Mu Chen is really cunning!

But in the end, Zhenhua managed to control his excitement and calmly asked Tang Wulin.

"Oh? So you're my junior brother Mu Chen. How does he usually talk to you about me?"

Upon hearing this, Tang Wulin was slightly taken aback, then recalled what Mu Chen had told him before.

"Wu Lin, with your talent, you will become a master craftsman in less than ten years, no, in less than five years."

"Don't worry, Wu Lin. What is that old guy Zhen Hua? He's just an old wall lamp who shamelessly occupies the position of Divine Craftsman because of his age!"

"Well, it was just some compliments on your superb skills."

After much deliberation, Tang Wulin still decided not to reveal his master's secrets.

But how could Zhenhua not know about this little scheme?

It's obvious that Mu Chen never mentioned his senior brother in front of Tang Wulin!

Moreover, who knows how many bad things they've said behind my back!

"Hey, Mu Chen, you've grown wings, haven't you! You don't know how hard your senior brother's hammer is anymore, do you?! You just wait!"

After cursing Mu Chen in his heart, Zhenhua suppressed his anger and instead pulled Tang Wulin along with Xie Xie and the others towards his tent with a friendly expression.

"Alright, nephew, let's not talk about this anymore. I'll talk to your master in person later."

"Let's get down to business now. I think your grades for this final exam are going to be phenomenal."

"Haha, I really want to see the expressions on those Shrek guys' faces when they find out this news."

Yes, the final exam assignment given to you by Shrek Academy's bloodline is simply to have you defeat Soul Masters of a higher level than you.

But they didn't say anything about letting you kill a god directly!

Moreover, it even demonstrated a terrifying power to open up mountains and rivers, to make words come true, and to reshape all things.

Such a score has probably already exceeded the score limit!
In response to Zhenhua's teasing, Tang Wulin couldn't help but recall the golden tree at Shrek Academy.

After a while, the group, still talking, went into Zhenhua's tent.

"So that's how it is. It seems that Makino died a worthy death. He was a real man and didn't disgrace me."

After learning a clearer account of what happened from Tang Wulin and the others, Zhenhua, who was holding the Body Sutra in his hand, also sighed with emotion.

Then, he composed himself and spoke seriously to Tang Wulin.

“Nephew, you don’t really need to care too much about Mu Ye’s last words, because the decline of the Body Sect is not due to the sect or the Body Martial Soul being ineffective.”

"It's simply because their Body Sect lacks high-level combat power. For example, Mu Ye is a typical example."

"Despite being the sect leader, his strength is lacking. Even though I crafted a four-word battle armor and a god-level mecha for him, he still cannot sweep away enemies like he did ten thousand years ago."

"For example, he couldn't even defeat the Dark Blood Demon before he became a god."

"Therefore, such a sect leader is unable to provide protection for the sect's disciples, which is the reason why their main sect cannot develop—they are too weak."

"But now that you are here, even if you only need to be a figurehead in the future, the Body Sect will not fall, and it will gradually prosper again because of your existence."

"Just like Shrek Academy and the Spirit Pagoda, so you have already helped Makino achieve his wish."

"As for the current Body Sect, don't worry, Mu Ye and I are old acquaintances, and I know most of his disciples as well."

"To put it bluntly, without Mu Ye, the Body Sect is practically nothing but a handful of cats and dogs. So, out of respect for me, no one will bother with them. You can go and do your own thing without worry!"

Upon hearing this, Tang Wulin remained silent for a moment, but nodded in agreement and thanked Zhenhua.

"Then I'll have to trouble you for now, Master Uncle."

Seeing that Tang Wulin had agreed to his proposal, Zhenhua quickly waved his hand.

"It's alright, we're family, and I've known Makino for a long time. It's no big deal, don't worry, I'll handle it."

"By the way, what are your plans for the future? Will you stay at Shrek Academy until you become a god, or will you find a place to cultivate until you become a god before coming out?"

As he spoke, Zhenhua looked at Tang Wulin with a serious expression.

Tang Wulin felt somewhat helpless after seeing Zhenhua's "you will definitely become a god" expression.

Here we go again! That look in his eyes, like he's destined to become a god, is just too crazy!

However, it is indeed time to make a decision on this.

Recalling the scene of Tang Yin'er being taken away by the golden light that shot straight from Shrek Academy, Tang Wulin gradually confirmed his decision.

"I"

Just as Tang Wulin was about to answer, several figures suddenly walked in from outside the tent.
