Douluo Continent: Protector Qian Renxue, Martial Soul: Dark Demon Dragon

Chapter 45 Absorbing Spirit Herbs, Lin Xiao as Protector.

Dugu Bo nodded slightly and, without hesitation, began to follow Lin Xiao's instructions. He used his own soul power to refine the immortal-grade Twin Snake Heart Lotus in front of him into liquid, and did the same to the twenty different spiritual herbs on the ground. He then consumed them directly.

The moment the medicine entered his mouth, Dugu Bo felt an immense power coursing through his body, filling his limbs and bones. Even the hidden injuries left by the backlash from the Azure Serpent Emperor's martial soul poison over the years were healed.

"Dugu Bo, hurry up and refine the medicinal properties of the spiritual herb in your body. This will perfectly resolve the flaws of the Azure Serpent Martial Soul. We will help you protect us. Perhaps once the flaws of the Azure Serpent Martial Soul are resolved, your soul power level will also increase," Lin Xiao said calmly.

In fact, when Dugu Bo took it directly, the medicinal properties of the spiritual herb were fully activated. All Dugu Bo needed to do was to refine all the medicinal properties of the spiritual herb step by step, so that the Azure Serpent Martial Soul could be replenished and his own soul power could be improved.

Upon hearing this, Dugu Bo did not hesitate at all. He immediately sat cross-legged on the ground and began to circulate his soul power. The Azure Serpent Emperor Martial Soul slowly appeared behind him, gradually refining the fully activated medicinal properties within his body.

Watching Dugu Bo refine and absorb the medicinal properties of the spiritual herb, Lin Xiao said to Qian Renxue, "Xiaoxue, there is a celestial-grade spiritual herb here that is extremely suitable for you. Refine it as soon as possible, so that your soul power level can be improved, from Soul King to Soul Emperor, and you can also give an account to that old man Xue Ye."

As he spoke, Lin Xiao took out the three-grade super-immortal spiritual herbs, the Blazing Sun Flower and the Blazing Sun Chrysanthemum. According to the analysis of the Hundred Immortal Herbs, these two super-immortal spiritual herbs bestowed by the system were the most suitable for Qian Renxue, while the Dark Demon Dragon Grass was the most suitable super-immortal spiritual herb for him.

"Brother Lin Xiao, these two spiritual herbs are so beautiful. Could they be poisonous?" Qian Renxue asked doubtfully. After Dugu Bo's explanation, she roughly understood that the spiritual herbs around the Ice and Fire Yin-Yang Well, as long as they were bright and beautiful, were basically poisonous. The brighter and more beautiful they were, the more potent the poison was!

"Xiaoxue is right. These two immortal herbs are indeed poisonous, but only the immortal-grade Blazing Sun Chrysanthemum contains potent poison, while the immortal-grade third-grade Blazing Sun Flower does not. It can even neutralize the toxins of the Blazing Sun Chrysanthemum, so it can be absorbed without any danger!" Lin Xiao explained calmly.

Qian Renxue nodded slightly, looking at the two beautiful and delicate immortal herbs, and then asked, "Brother Lin Xiao, how should I absorb these two immortal herbs? Do I have to refine them into a potion like Dugu Bo did? But with my soul power, it seems I can't do that."

Directly using soul power to refine spiritual herbs into liquid seems easy for Dugu Bo, but Dugu Bo is a Title Douluo, whose control over soul power has long reached a level of exquisite finesse, while she is a Soul King Soul Master, and naturally cannot compare with Dugu Bo in terms of soul power control.

Lin Xiao chuckled and said, "Of course, there's no need to do it like Dugu Bo. Xiaoxue, you just need to put the two immortal herbs in your mouth and chew them together. When the two herbs are completely chewed until they have no taste, that means the medicinal properties of the two immortal herbs have been fully released. You just need to refine the medicinal properties."

Taking the two immortal herbs, and feeling the scorching heat of the Blazing Sun Chrysanthemum in her hand, Qian Renxue endured the stinging pain and put them directly into her mouth, beginning to chew. At first, it was a burning sensation, as if her body was about to be burned, followed by a cooling sensation, as if she were bathing in cold water on a hot summer day.

As she chewed for longer and longer, the two immortal herbs had completely lost their original flavor. Qian Renxue made a decisive move, spitting out the two tasteless immortal herbs from her mouth. Then she sat cross-legged on the ground and began to circulate her soul power to refine the medicinal properties.

Lin Xiao watched the two refining the medicinal properties of the spirit herbs, rubbed his chin, and murmured, "The Twin Snake Heart Grass, when combined with those seasoning spirit herbs, can help Dugu Bo perfectly eliminate the flaws in his Azure Serpent Martial Soul. At that time, Dugu Bo's strength will be improved, guaranteed to be at least at the first level of Soul Power."

"As for Xiaoxue, she possesses the medicinal properties of two super-immortal-grade spiritual herbs. She probably can't refine all of them right now; the remainder will stay within her body. This will act like an accelerator in her cultivation, allowing her to cultivate to the level of a Title Douluo. Furthermore, Xiaoxue's Six-Winged Angel Martial Soul might also be enhanced!"

Super Immortal-grade spiritual herbs completely surpass Immortal-grade spiritual herbs in terms of medicinal properties; otherwise, they wouldn't be called Super Immortal-grade spiritual herbs. If Qian Renxue were to absorb ordinary Immortal-grade spiritual herbs, their medicinal properties would at most be maintained up to the Soul Saint realm before they could be fully refined.

The medicinal properties of the super-immortal-grade spiritual herbs can be maintained up to the Title Douluo level. Lin Xiao even guessed that two super-immortal-grade spiritual herbs might be able to slightly improve the quality of the Six-Winged Angel Martial Soul, a god-level Martial Soul. Lin Xiao didn't know what it would eventually become, but he was certain that it would be a positive change.

Finally, Lin Xiao brought his thoughts back, took out the Dark Dragon Grass, and examined it. Although the Dark Dragon Grass was a grass, entirely black, it exuded a majestic dragon's might that was awe-inspiring, as if it were not a grass but a dragon!

When Lin Xiao took out the Dark Dragon Grass, the black dragon, which had been quietly perched on Lin Xiao's head, seemed to sense something and immediately got up, opened its eyes with a happy mood, and stared intently at the Dark Dragon Grass in Lin Xiao's hand, drooling.

Lin Xiao could clearly sense that when he took out the Dark Dragon Grass, the Black Dragon's emotions fluctuated abnormally, and he understood what was going on.

Lin Xiao smiled and tentatively asked, "Black Dragon, do you want to eat this spiritual herb?"

Black Dragon nodded vigorously, his eyes shining as he looked at the Dark Dragon Grass.

Having received an affirmative answer, Lin Xiao placed the Dark Dragon Grass near the black dragon's mouth. The black dragon opened its mouth wide and swallowed the Dark Dragon Grass. Then it began to coil its body, refining the medicinal properties of the Dark Dragon Grass.

As the black dragon swallowed the spiritual herb, Lin Xiao could clearly feel his soul power slowly increasing. He wondered if his soul power level would directly reach level ninety-seven after the black dragon had fully refined the properties of this super immortal-grade spiritual herb.

Ordinary celestial-grade spiritual herbs are impossible, but what about super celestial-grade spiritual herbs?
