Douluo Continent: Breaking the Million-Year Barrier, the Golden Ranking Exposes Me

Chapter 148 Immortal Herb Ranking: Ninth Place

Empire of the Sun and Moon.

A calculating glint flashed in Xu Tianran's eyes: "A divine herb, a perfect match, what a destined person!"

"Jing Hongchen, immediately utilize all of the Empire's intelligence networks and soul-guided detectors to closely monitor the energy fluctuations and landing points when all immortal herbs are bestowed!"

"Try to analyze the patterns in its affinity determination!"

"At the same time, we are preparing the highest-level recruitment or trading plan, targeting those destined to obtain the immortal herb!"

"Especially those who don't come from powerful backgrounds!"

Jing Hongchen respectfully replied, "Yes, Your Highness!"

Holy Spirit Church.

Ye Xishui's crimson eyes blazed with greed: "Immortal herbs, nourished by flesh and soul imbued with spiritual energy. If I could obtain one and integrate it into my Death God's Kingdom... or, I could simply capture a destined person and refine it into a medicinal ingredient..."

Her longing for the magical herb carried a strong sense of the sinister.

Various factions on the continent, whether human or spirit beast.

Their minds were in turmoil over who would get the first immortal herb.

Just as the ownership of the first immortal herb was settled, everyone thought that the ninth herb might not be revealed until later.

In the illusory image of the Golden List Immortal Garden.

A phantom image of a celestial herb, shaped like a rooster's comb, fiery red all over, with golden patterns flowing along the edges of its corolla, radiating a scorching and noble aura.

It suddenly burst forth with an even more dazzling light than before!

Within that light, the faint phantom of a phoenix could be seen circling and singing!

"This is... Phoenix Cockscomb Palm?"

A knowledgeable Soul Master immediately recognized this legendary immortal herb.

"Such a powerful fire attribute! And it even carries the aura of a phoenix!"

"This is probably the finest of all fire-attribute immortal herbs!"

"I wonder which fire-attribute soul master or soul beast is so fortunate?"

"."

Amidst countless curious and expectant gazes, the blazing golden light pierced through the sky and descended.

Its trajectory clearly points in the direction of Shrek Academy!
Shrek Academy, inner courtyard.

Ma Xiaotao, the owner of the Evil Fire Phoenix Martial Soul, recently evolved her Martial Soul into the Ultimate Fire due to a fortuitous opportunity on the Golden List.

He is struggling to control the violent and powerful new force within his body in the simulated environment.

She was engulfed in pure golden-red flames, the temperature so high that it slightly distorted the space around her.

Suddenly, she felt something and looked up sharply!

"boom!"

A beam of crimson-gold light appeared, ignoring the obstruction of the simulated environment.

It landed precisely in front of her!
Within the pillar of light, a lifelike Phoenix Cockscomb Sunflower, radiating boundless, fiery energy and the noble aura of a phoenix, slowly emerged.

It resonated strongly with the extreme fire within her.

It even stirred the sacred aura deep within her martial soul, originating from the opportunity presented by the Golden List!

Ma Xiaotao was stunned, and subconsciously reached out to catch the fairy herb.

A warm and vast power instantly surged into her body, perfectly merging with her own flames without the slightest rejection.

On the contrary, it subtly improved her control over the ultimate fire!
At the same time, her information and the properties of the immortal herb were also transmitted across the continent through the Golden List.

[Immortal Herbs Ranking: Ninth Place]

【Herbal Extract: Phoenix Cockscomb Sunflower】

[Characteristics: A top-grade fire-attribute immortal herb containing a trace of Phoenix True Flame essence, which can greatly enhance the quality and power of fire attributes, especially effective for those with Phoenix bloodline or ultimate fire, and has a chance to trigger further beneficial mutations in the Martial Soul.]

[The destined person: Ma Xiaotao (human, inner disciple of Shrek Academy)]

"Ma Xiaotao! Our Shrek Academy's Ma Xiaotao!" "Phoenix Cockscomb Sunflower! A perfect match for her ultimate fire!"

"Ninth place! Shrek Academy has secured the second Immortal Herb!"

"."

A deafening cheer erupted both inside and outside Shrek Academy!

Inside the Sea God Pavilion, the elders, including Mu En, Yan Shaozhe, and Xian Lin'er, all wore smiles of relief and delight.

Yan Shaozhe exclaimed excitedly, "Great! That's wonderful! Xiao Tao's martial soul had already evolved due to the Golden List opportunity, greatly increasing her strength. Now, with this Phoenix Cockscomb Sunflower, she's practically having wings on her back!"

"This immortal herb contains the essence of the Phoenix True Flame, which complements her evil fire phoenix attribute. After absorbing it, the quality of her ultimate fire will definitely be raised to a higher level, and there is even a chance that it will trigger a further benign mutation!"

"The path to becoming a Title Douluo will be smooth sailing!"

Xian Lin'er nodded repeatedly: "Dai Yueheng's Qirong Tongtian Chrysanthemum and Ma Xiaotao's Phoenix Cockscomb Sunflower are both extremely suitable for them."

"Yueheng can achieve an indestructible body, while Xiaotao can wield an even purer, ultimate true flame."

"Given time, these two will surely become the new pillars of Shrek Academy!"

"The Golden List of Immortal Herbs is a timely rain for Shrek Academy!"

Qian Duoduo chuckled, "Looks like Shrek's luck hasn't run out yet! Now let's see who dares to say that humanity has no hope!"

A hint of red appeared on Mu En's aged face as he slowly said, "It is truly a fortunate event that I have been blessed with such an opportunity."

"Pass down the order: immediately allocate the best support resources for Xiao Tao and Yue Heng, and make sure they perfectly absorb the power of the immortal herbs!"

"At the same time, we will strengthen the college's vigilance and guard against those with ulterior motives."

Shrek Academy was filled with excitement.

Two top-tier immortal herbs have fallen into Shrek Academy, and both are core disciples with clear potential.

This undoubtedly gave a strong boost to the college, which had been severely impacted by the field rankings.

However, in stark contrast to Shrek's jubilation, the other forces on the continent had mixed feelings.

Empire of the Sun and Moon.

Xu Tianran's face darkened: "It's Shrek Academy again! Dai Yueheng is one thing, after all, he's from Star Luo."

"This Ma Xiaotao... with her extreme fire, plus the Phoenix Cockscomb Sunflower... she will surely be my greatest enemy in the future!"

"Jing Hongchen, our intelligence infiltration and strategic containment of Shrek Academy must be upgraded to a higher level!"

In the Star Luo Empire, while Xu Jiawei was happy for Dai Yueheng, he also felt a bit of pressure because Shrek Academy had obtained two immortal herbs.

Especially the combination of Ma Xiaotao's ultimate fire and Phoenix Cockscomb Sunflower.

In the future, they will likely become a force that even Xingluo will need to take seriously.

The Heavenly Soul Empire, various sects, and other forces mostly felt envy and jealousy.

Shrek Academy already had a deep foundation, and now it has the help of the immortal herb.

The younger generation's lead seems to be even more pronounced.

Huo Yuhao was also happy for Ma Xiaotao.

Huo Yuhao thought to himself, "Sister Xiaotao is already powerful. Now that she has obtained the immortal herb, it probably won't be long before she can break through to the Soul Douluo level or even become a Title Douluo."

"I need to work even harder..."

After the initial shock and elation, Ma Xiaotao quickly calmed down.

She gripped the Phoenix Cockscomb Sunflower tightly in her hand, feeling the surging power within, her eyes burning with a determined flame.

"I will not fail the opportunity bestowed upon me by the imperial examination! I will go even further on the path of the ultimate fire!"

"I will protect the future glory of Shrek!"

With the ninth place on the Immortal Herb Ranking settled, the continent's attention once again focused on the illusory image of the Golden Ranking Immortal Garden.

What will the remaining eight magical herbs be?
Who will win this prize?
