Douluo Continent: Transmigrating into Huo Yuhao's world, I start by becoming Yao Lao's app

Chapter 30 I really don't want to try anymore!

(Have you guys all watched the animated version of Douluo Continent II: The Peerless Tang Sect? What do you think of it?)

As he played with the two crystal-clear soul bones, Yao Lao's brows furrowed, clearly deep in thought.

Huo Yuhao stood aside, nervously watching Yao Lao's expression.

He didn't know if the energy polymer inside the soul beast that Yao Lao mentioned was the soul bone. If not, he would need to put in more effort to find it.

After a moment, Yao Lao's brows finally relaxed. A smile appeared on his lips as he looked at Huo Yuhao beside him and said, "Kid, you were nervous, weren't you?"

"How can I not be nervous, teacher? These two soul bones are something I managed to extort from Ma Xiaotao. It would be such a waste if we couldn't use them," Huo Yuhao said with a bitter face.

"The path of cultivation has its gains and losses. If you can only accept the gains and not the losses, your state of mind will inevitably become problematic," said the old doctor solemnly. "Only by maintaining a balanced mind can you avoid falling into evil ways."

At this point, the old doctor seemed to remember something, and his expression turned somber.

Huo Yuhao knew that Elder Yao was thinking of his former disciple, Han Feng.

Han Feng was an orphan rescued by Yao Lao and grew up under Yao Lao's loving care. However, after he grew up, driven by ambition, he chose to kill his master Yao Lao, who had raised him, and grind his bones to ashes, all to seize a cultivation technique called the Burning Technique.

"Oh, teacher, I know all that. But can this soul bone actually be used for alchemy? You're really driving me crazy!"

Huo Yuhao deliberately acted coquettishly, grabbing Yao Lao's illusory arm and shaking it repeatedly. Yao Lao, interrupted by Huo Yuhao's somewhat childish behavior, shook his head and smiled helplessly.

"You little rascal, you're so clever. I don't need to lecture you with any grand principles. Alright, I'll tell you, this soul bone can indeed be used for alchemy, and its effects are even stronger than the magic cores of our world," the old apothecary explained.

"Soul bones are not only condensed from pure energy, but also contain the laws of heaven and earth, which is why they can provide soul masters with so-called soul skills. Of course, it's too early to tell you all this now. You just need to know that the existence of the laws of heaven and earth has a very good auxiliary effect on refining pills."

Huo Yuhao nodded, rubbing his hands together excitedly, and said, "Then, teacher, can you refine the Primordial Pill now?"

"Yes, we have the main ingredients, but we still need some necessary auxiliary materials. My knowledge of the herbs in your world is not yet clear, so I need to learn more about them. Tomorrow, go to the academy's library and find a comprehensive book on herbs to consult," the old herbalist nodded and said.

"Okay, I'll go to the academy's library to look up the classics tomorrow at noon," Huo Yuhao quickly agreed.

"But there's one more thing I need you to do," said the old man, holding up the two soul bones in his hand. "This green soul bone of the wood attribute can be used to refine the Primordial Pill, while I plan to use this soul bone of the water attribute to refine the Blood Lotus Pill. You'll need it after you find the Strange Flame."

"After taking the Blood Lotus Pill, a strange energy blood shackle will form on the surface of the human body. This blood shackle can resist the burning of extremely hot temperatures. Therefore, only by relying on its effects can you get close to the strange fire and find an opportunity to devour it."

"So?" Huo Yuhao's expression stiffened as he asked.

"Besides this water-attribute soul bone, refining the Blood Lotus Pill also requires Blood Lotus Essence and Ice Spirit Flame Grass. After consulting the ancient texts tomorrow, if you can find these two herbs or other rare and precious materials that can replace their effects, then you should start preparing to purchase them."

"However, the price of these two herbs... well... all I can tell you is to work hard and earn more money."

Huo Yuhao was now on the verge of tears. He had only wanted to prepare some materials for learning alchemy and to forge a medicine cauldron, which was why he opened this barbecue stall.

However, after finally managing to swindle money from Xu Sanshi, Yao Lao suddenly told him that he needed soul bones, a treasure of the soul master world, for alchemy, which immediately dragged his assets back into the negative.

He carefully planned and seized the right opportunity to stage an accident with Ma Xiaotao, successfully resolving the issue of the soul bone.

But now the old doctor is telling him that he doesn't have enough money again and that he needs to work hard to earn money to buy medicinal herbs.

When others transmigrate to another world, they all become kings, immortal emperors, or crooked-mouthed dragon kings—what is it that I, a top assassin, have to work so hard when I transmigrate to another world?

If all else fails, he should just find a rich woman; he doesn't want to work hard anymore.

Rich woman, hungry, need food.

"Yuhao, don't worry. Once you reach level 20, I'll take you to the far north ice plains to obtain your second soul ring and second martial soul. As for the location of that strange fire you mentioned, I remember it clearly. Once we get to the far north ice plains, I'll take you to find that strange fire."

At this moment, Tianmeng also joined in, cheering Huo Yuhao on in the sea of ​​his mind.

The promising prospect of evolving the Burning Technique immediately eased some of Huo Yuhao's resentment at being a miserable wage earner. He nodded slightly and asked Yao Lao, "Teacher, what else do I need to devour the strange fire? You might as well tell me directly so I can start preparing now. After all, I'm already level eighteen, and I'm almost at the level of a Great Soul Master."

"The Blood Lotus Pill is essential for getting close to the Strange Flame. Without its protection, you will be reduced to ashes by the Strange Flame in an instant."

"The second material is called Ice Spirit Cold Spring. If the Blood Lotus Pill protects the surface of your body, then the Ice Spirit Cold Spring protects your body. It can protect you from being burned to nothingness by the destructive temperature when you are refining the strange fire."

"There's no need to worry about that. If Yuhao can successfully acquire his second martial soul, he won't need the so-called Ice Spirit Cold Spring, and the strange fire won't harm any part of his body," said Tianmeng Ice Silkworm.

"Well, since you have confidence, I'll believe you for now," the old doctor chuckled.

"The last material is called Naling. This thing can open up a special small space in your body. This small space is used to store the strange fire. After all, with the nature of strange fire that can burn the heavens and destroy the earth, if you don't completely refine it, then everything else except this void space will be instantly burned, including your body."

"Spirit Absorption?" Huo Yuhao said with a wry smile. "I've never even heard of it. Where am I supposed to find this so-called Spirit Absorption?"

"You don't need to worry too much about Na Ling, because I happened to have a little extra when I was searching for the strange fire. So, the only thing you're lacking now is money," Yao Lao said with a smile.

"Make money, make money!" Suddenly, Huo Yuhao's eyes lit up, and he took out a red card from his storage soul tool.

This card was left behind by the original owner of this storage soul tool ring, and also by the owner of the Shrek En Token that allowed him to enroll in Shrek Academy. It was left by a powerful figure named Yu Chuan from the Body Sect thousands of years ago.

"I'll go to the money exchange in Shrek City tomorrow and see if this card can still be exchanged for Soul Coins!"
