Douluo Continent: Martial Soul Golden Dragon, Tang San's adoptive father

Chapter 43 Distributing Pills, Preparing to Cause Trouble for the Human-Faced Demon Spider

Using immortal herbs for practice was something he wouldn't dare do, even with his treasure pouch overflowing with them. He'd consider refining medicine with immortal herbs later, after he'd mastered the art. Days passed, and aside from eating and sleeping, Lin Feng spent most of his time in the alchemy room. He was very satisfied with his results. He not only improved upon the existing alchemy methods in the Immortal Herb Manual, creating his own alchemy technique, but also refined a large number of pills highly beneficial to Soul Masters. Among them was a pill made from a mixture of ten-thousand-year-old whale glue and herbs that could enhance physical attributes. After consuming this pill, a Soul Master would at least... This increases the absorption time of a spirit ring by a thousand years. Of course, the stronger the spirit master's physical attributes, the greater the improvement. Another point is that, in the current understanding of spirit masters, medicinal herbs are used for medicinal baths in tubs. For example, when Gangzi was at Shrek Academy, he bought several large tubs to give the Seven Devils medicinal baths after training. The pills he refines now are far ahead of their time. Meanwhile, knowing that Lin Feng's pill refining was almost finished, the members of the Royal Fighting Team, along with Tang San, Qian Renxue, and others, waited for Lin Feng early at the training ground. Not long after, Lin Feng reappeared at the Royal Fighting Team's training ground. "Teacher!"

Seeing Lin Feng emerge from the alchemy room, Tang San and Xiao Wu approached him. Even before their teacher began alchemy, Tang San had wanted to use his knowledge from his past life to see if he could help. Unfortunately, in his previous life, he was in the Tang Sect and only proficient in hidden weapons and poison; he knew nothing about alchemy. Otherwise, he might have been able to assist his teacher. Lin Feng nodded to Tang San and Xiao Wu, then looked at the others and revealed a piece of news they were all eager to know: "You must all be very curious about why Tang San's second spirit ring is a thousand-year-old one, right?"

As expected, Dugu Yan, Ye Lengleng, and the others showed excited expressions when they heard Lin Feng say this. Of course they wanted to know, they were practically going crazy with curiosity. Although there was only a difference of a few hundred years between a hundred-year soul ring and a thousand-year soul ring, the effect on the soul skills they provided to the soul master was several times greater. In fact, it wasn't necessary to increase it by hundreds or thousands of years; even just increasing the absorption limit of a soul ring by a hundred years could bring a significant improvement to the soul skill. Now that Teacher Lin suddenly brought this up, could it be that he wanted to...?

At this moment, Qian Renxue's gaze also became solemn. The fact that pills could increase the absorption age of a Soul Master's Soul Ring was something she had never heard of, even as the Holy Maiden of the Spirit Hall. If it weren't for the fact that Tang San and Lin Feng were right in front of her, she wouldn't have believed that a Soul Master could absorb a thousand-year Soul Ring in the second Soul Ring position. In fact, Lin Feng was even more outrageous, getting a thousand-year Soul Ring as his first one. It was simply terrifying!

Finally, under the expectant gazes of the group, Lin Feng slowly took out several pills. The moment the pills were taken out, a peculiar medicinal fragrance wafted into their noses. "The number of years a Soul Master can absorb Soul Rings depends not only on the quality of their Martial Soul, but also, to a large extent, on the Soul Master's physical constitution," he explained.

"If your physical condition is strong enough, and you take some pills that can enhance your physical condition, you can naturally increase the number of years you can absorb a soul ring."

After explaining to them, Lin Feng handed each of them a pill, saying, "Take these pills. When you obtain your fourth spirit ring in the future, they will increase the absorption period of your spirit ring by at least a thousand years!"

A thousand years!

Dugu Yan, Ye Lengleng, and the others were shocked by Lin Feng's words, their faces filled with disbelief. Generally speaking, the limit that a Soul Master's fourth Soul Ring can absorb is about five thousand years. Does that mean that after they took this pill, their fourth Soul Ring could easily absorb Soul Beast Soul Rings that were five or six thousand years old?

Thinking of this, the group's eyes lit up as they looked at the pills in their hands, and without a word, they put them in their mouths. On the other side, Qian Renxue, seeing that her hands were empty, became a little anxious and began to ask Lin Feng for some, "Brother Lin, where are mine? Don't I have any?"

"You paid for those medicinal herbs with her money, and now you're leaving her hanging. That's a bit much," Lin Feng thought, feeling a headache coming on after hearing Qian Renxue's words. After all, she was a level 20 innate full soul power, and her physical attributes and martial soul quality were top-notch. Moreover, she should already be a Soul Saint by now. The people in the Royal Fighting Team were only Soul Venerables, and their requirements for the quality of pills weren't that high. Lin Feng himself felt that giving Qian Renxue pills made from ordinary herbs was a bit of a rip-off. "We'll talk about yours later. I've only made these few pills so far."

After hearing Lin Feng's answer, Qian Renxue was clearly somewhat disbelieving. Although she was a little angry, she could only swallow her anger because Lin Feng was someone she valued. On the other side, after responding to Qian Renxue, Lin Feng turned his gaze to Dugu Yan and Ye Lingleng, "Yan Yan, Lengleng, now that you've taken the pills, let's head to the Star Dou Great Forest. It's time for you two to obtain your fourth soul rings."

Dugu Yan and Ye Lengleng's eyes lit up when they heard Lin Feng's words. To be honest, after taking the pills Lin Feng gave them, they were now very much looking forward to seeing how many years of spirit rings they could absorb. At this moment, Lin Feng remembered something, looked at Tang San beside him, and said to him meaningfully, "Little San, you come with us too. There's something good waiting for you in the Star Dou Great Forest."

It's been a while since I arrived at the Heaven Dou Royal Academy, and it's about time to retrieve the external soul bone from the Human-Faced Demon Spider. Don't underestimate the Human-Faced Demon Spider just because its cultivation level is low at two thousand years old; the equipment it drops is top-tier! It's the Eight Spider Lances, an external soul bone with unlimited evolution potential. For most soul bones, breaking means ruin, but the Eight Spider Lances are different. Breaking them is a good thing, meaning they can evolve immediately. In the original story, the Eight Spider Lances followed Tang San on his journey to power, evolving from a soul bone dropped by a two-thousand-year-old Human-Faced Demon Spider into a super artifact—truly heaven-defying! If there's anyone besides Tang San who's the second protagonist, it has to be the Eight Spider Lances. Moreover, the Eight Spider Lances have been incredibly helpful to Tang San, helping him overcome difficulties and achieve victory at crucial moments on numerous occasions. In terms of sheer usefulness, the Human-Faced Demon Spider is far more valuable than the useless Gangzi; it wouldn't be an exaggeration to say that the Human-Faced Demon Spider nurtured a god.
