Douluo Continent: Now that everyone's been reborn, who's still going to be a simp?

"This is... Acacia Heartbreak Red, Fragrant Silk Fairy, Snow-White Swan Kiss, Cockscomb Phoenix Sunflower, Longing for Autumn Dew, Silk Tulip!"

Yue Guan has studied flowers and plants all his life, but he has never seen so many top-quality medicinal herbs at once as he has today.

This was almost the happiest moment of his life.

Coming to her senses, Yue Guan looked at Yan in disbelief and smiled:

"Yan, you're really something! Tell me in detail how you managed to pick these top-grade immortal herbs."

"Ah."

Subsequently, Yan told Yue Guan how he picked those immortal herbs and consumed the Eight-Cornered Mystic Ice Grass and the Blazing Apricot, as well as how he almost got discovered by Dugu Bo and how he escaped death by jumping into the Ice and Fire Yin-Yang Spring.

Upon hearing this, Yue Guan was greatly shocked.

He hadn't expected Yan to have such courage.

"Yan, you're really lucky. You actually escaped from Dugu Bo's nose."

Those two highly poisonous herbs must be taken together; taking either one alone will result in severe poisoning and sudden death.

You are indeed very lucky, or perhaps it's because you are blessed by God.

During the time you awoke from the Yin-Yang Well of Ice and Fire, I happened to return to Sunset Forest to find you, which attracted Dugu Bo's attention.

Yan nodded.

“No wonder! When I woke up, Dugu Bo wasn’t there. If you hadn’t come back to find me, he wouldn’t have left. You could say you saved my life.”

Yue Guan waved his hand and smiled:

"It's all because you're lucky and destined to escape this calamity."

Yan's honesty moved Yue Guan, and he now agreed with Yan's idea.

In order for those immortal herbs to grow better, the existence of the Ice and Fire Yin-Yang Eyes must not be known to more people.

“Then let’s keep this a secret for now. After we kill Dugu Bo, only the two of us will know about that secret garden, and then it will become ours.”

"Yes, that's what I meant."

As Yan spoke, he handed the snow-white Swan Kiss plant to Yue Guan.

"Elder Ju, please keep this Snow-White Swan Kiss plant safe. Over the years, countless Soul Masters have died from Dugu Bo's snake venom. If you encounter him again in the future, let him taste the backlash of being poisoned ten times more severely by the Azure Scale Serpent King."

"Great idea, haha~"

Yue Guan took the snow-white swan's kiss herb and pointed to the other immortal herbs, reminding them one by one:

"This Acacia Heartbreak Red is the king of flowers, the Fragrant Silk Fairy is the nemesis of all poisons, and the Silk Tulip is a top-grade auxiliary herb. Keep these safe for now; they may come in handy in the future."

This Phoenix Sunflower can enhance your fire power and also help you increase your soul power. However, since you have just consumed two highly poisonous top-grade immortal herbs, do not rush to consume this one, lest it cause an overreaction and have the opposite effect.

It will be more effective to take it a year later, or after your soul power reaches level 50.

Although this "Longing for Autumn Dew" isn't a top-grade immortal herb, it can enhance your mental focus and help you better absorb the two immortal herbs within your body. You can consume it now.

Yan nodded.

He also knew that it was not appropriate to take the Cockscomb Phoenix Sunflower now. Even if his body could adapt, he would not be able to explain the sudden increase in soul power by several levels when he returned.

The Eight-Cornered Ice Grass, the Fiery Apricot Blossom, and the Autumn Dew will not help increase soul power, but they can help with body tempering and improve mental power, which is also a considerable gain.

Chapter 36 Absorbing the Dew of Longing, Recognizing Yue Guan as Teacher

Yue Guan and Yan reached a consensus to keep the existence of the Ice and Fire Yin-Yang Eye a secret.

He also knew that this mysterious place could not be known to the outside world, and that its powerful energy and rare resources, once exposed, would inevitably cause countless people to fight over it.

As the first person to discover the Yin-Yang Well of Ice and Fire, Dugu Bo naturally did not want anyone to know of its existence, and he would continue to guard it there.

When the time is right, I will kill Dugu Bo and take his place, becoming the new master of that mysterious garden.

Yan also knew that the Ice and Fire Yin-Yang Eye was formed because it was the place where the Water Dragon King and the Fire Dragon King fell.

The remains of the two dragon kings lie dormant at the bottom of a deep spring, containing immense energy.

This secret was known only to Yan.

He looked forward to the day he could obtain the dragon bone, believing it would bring him immense power and allow his strength to leap forward.

For this reason, Yan was determined not to let Bibi Dong know about the existence of the Ice and Fire Yin-Yang Well.

Although his appearance has changed somewhat, Yan is confident in facing Bibi Dong.

His overall appearance is not much different from before, except that he looks a bit thinner.

The fiery patterns on the body surface can be released at will.

For a boy who has just turned seventeen, the changes in his body can be completely understood as the result of growth and cultivation.

Those Soul Masters who deliberately cultivate their bodies can also achieve this.

Furthermore, his soul power will not increase due to consuming those three immortal herbs; it will remain at the same normal rate of increase as before.

Even if they are one or two levels higher than Xie Yue and Hu Liena, it's understandable.

After all, Yan's mindset had changed, and after immersing himself in cultivation, the advantages of his martial soul gradually became apparent.

Urged by Yan, Yue Guan sat down to absorb the Qirong Tongtian Chrysanthemum.

For Soul Masters, absorbing immortal herbs is more effective when they are young.

Although Yue Guan is old, the perfect match between the immortal herb and his martial soul may bring unexpected results.

While Yue Guan was absorbing the immortal herb, Yan returned to his room, sat cross-legged, and prepared to absorb the Dew of Longing.

He carefully picked up the herb, tilted his head back, and a few drops of crystal-clear dew slid into his mouth.

As the dew dripped in, the entire Dewdrop Plant seemed to have completed its mission, quickly withering away and eventually turning into dust that drifted away from his hands.

Then, he closed his eyes and began to cultivate with complete concentration.

Time passed slowly, and when Yan opened her eyes again, night had already fallen.

He noticed the changes in his eyes and discovered that his vision had improved dramatically.

He stood up, walked to the window, and looked up into the distance.

With a thought, his dark red eyes instantly turned golden red.

The distant buildings, lights, and even the birds flying in the sky are all clearly visible, as if they were right next to you.

He tried to look further into the distance and was able to see clearly the scenery several miles away; even the finest details of the leaves did not escape his eyes.

This extraordinary vision is almost like having a third eye.

Moreover, he also found that his mental cohesion had been significantly improved, which would undoubtedly greatly enhance his cultivation efficiency.

Yan sighed inwardly, realizing that the "Waiting Through Autumn Water Dew" truly lived up to its name, bringing about such an amazing change.

Just then, Yue Guan also finished absorbing the Qi Rong Tong Tian Ju and walked in with a rosy complexion.

He felt the fluctuations of soul power within his body become more intense, clearly indicating that this absorption had greatly benefited him.

The two looked at each other and smiled, both sensing the changes in the other.

"Elder Ju, it seems you have already absorbed the Qirong Tongtian Chrysanthemum."

"Hmm, you've finished absorbing that Dew of Longing, right? How does it feel?"

Yan nodded.

"My eyesight has improved significantly; I can see farther and more clearly, and my mental focus has also increased considerably. What about you? How do you feel? Has your soul power improved?"

Yue Guan smiled, looking very satisfied.

"After all, I'm already this old, so the effects of absorbing immortal herbs aren't as obvious as yours. However, I've been stuck at level 95 for ten years, unable to break through. After absorbing that rare and powerful chrysanthemum, I actually have a faint indication that I'm about to break through to level 96."

"That's wonderful! Elder Ju, congratulations! It might not be long before you break through to level ninety-six."

"Then I have to thank you."

Yue Guan chuckled, unable to hide his inner joy.

Once a Soul Master reaches the Title Douluo level, each subsequent level becomes extremely difficult.

Between level 95 and level 96, there is an insurmountable gap that requires not only diligent cultivation but also extremely high comprehension to break through that barrier.

Despite years of exploration, Yueguan has yet to yield any results.

Today, he finally sees hope.

"Yan, please don't call me 'Elder' in private anymore. It's too formal."

"Then how should I address you?"

"Or you can call me 'Grandpa' like Nana does."

Yan paused.

He had no relatives in this world, and calling Yue Guan "Grandpa" according to seniority seemed perfectly normal, but he always felt a little awkward about it.

"For the past six months, you have patiently taught me and answered my questions about flowers and plants, from which I have benefited greatly. In my heart, you have long been like a teacher to me. Otherwise, shall I call you 'teacher' from now on?"
