Douluo Continent: The Twins of Azure Phosphorus, Painting the Future

A few more days passed.

Butler Fu Bo brought a box to the backyard. Seeing Dugu Bo soaking wet, he pretended not to notice anything and said respectfully, "Master, a powerful figure just appeared in front of the Dugu residence and delivered this box."

"A powerful figure? Did he say who he was?"

"He only said that he was ordered by Prince Xue Qinghe to deliver these things."

"Oh?"

Dugu Bo's eyes lit up, and his soul power instantly vibrated to evaporate all the water vapor before he called his two grandsons and granddaughters over.

Dugu Lin's lips curled slightly as he said, "It's been almost two months. Qian Renxue's efficiency needs improvement."

Upon opening the box, inside lay two soul bones radiating terrifying soul power fluctuations, as well as an ordinary book.

"Such a powerful fluctuation of soul energy!"

Dugu Bo examined the soul bones first and exclaimed in surprise, "This soul bone is the right arm bone, and it should be about 30,000 years old! Judging from its soul power attributes, it seems to be a poisonous soul bone from the Human-Faced Demon Spider. The other soul bone is the left leg bone, which is about 22,000 years old, and it should come from a venomous snake."

"A 30,000-year-old human-faced demon spider and a 22,000-year-old venomous snake, Qian Renxue is really generous to arrange a marriage with my sister! Moreover, the human-faced demon spider's soul bone is just right, and it might even resonate with the Eight Spider Spears."

Dugu Lin nodded in satisfaction, glancing at his sister whose pretty face was slightly flushed, and couldn't help but think to himself, "Why are you blushing like that?"

Dugu Bo keenly noticed the words "Eight Spider Spears" and asked curiously, "What are Eight Spider Spears?"

"We'll talk about the Eight Spider Lances later. Alright, Grandpa, Sister, you two go absorb the Soul Bone first, then take some of the prepared antidote pills to force all the toxins in your bodies into the Soul Bone. Then we'll go to the Ice and Fire Yin-Yang Well to consume the immortal herbs!"

"Alright! Lin'er, why don't you study the celestial herbs first?"

After the two entered the cultivation room, Dugu Lin opened the unremarkable book.

"It really is the Immortal Herb Catalogue!"

Dugu Lin was overjoyed and quickly read on. It turned out that the herbs were divided into four general grades: common herbs, precious herbs, rare herbs (second-best immortal herbs), and immortal herbs.

"Tulips of Qiluo, Red Acacia of Heartbreak, Narcissus of Jade Skin and Bones, Earth Dragon Golden Melon, Black Jade Divine Bamboo, Fragrant Qiluo Immortal Herbs... Besides some well-known immortal herbs, there are actually so many immortal herbs that were not mentioned in the original work."

The more Dugu Lin read, the more excited he became.

Besides the immortal items mentioned in the original work, there are also: Immortal Jade Scale Seven Absolute Flowers, Immortal Star Crown Starry Sky, Immortal Mysterious Ice Jade Lotus, Immortal Azure Heaven Yellow Spring Fruit, Immortal Blazing Sun Dragon Blood Vine, Immortal Golden Flame Emperor Flower... a total of more than twenty kinds that were not mentioned in the original work.

"The Illustrated Compendium of Immortal Herbs records a total of 43 kinds of immortal herbs!"

"Second-tier immortal herbs, also known as first-grade rare spiritual herbs, include 92 varieties such as the Nine-Grade Dragon Fungus, Cinnabar Lotus, and Snow Silkworm!"

Dugu Lin's face was full of surprise as he murmured, "I estimate that there are only about 27 immortal-grade medicinal herbs in the Ice and Fire Yin-Yang Well! And more than 65 kinds of rare spiritual herbs!"

"So many divine and rare items..."

"Tang San is such a spendthrift! He used so many immortal ingredients to refine the Yama's Decree... What a load of crap!" The thought of Tang San instantly turned Dugu Lin's excited mood into displeasure.

The next morning.

Dugu Bo emerged from the cultivation room, swinging his arms and laughing heartily, "Hahaha~~ Lin'er, I've used your blood to force all the toxins into my left leg bone. It feels so incredibly relaxing!"

After all the toxins were forced into his soul bone, even his appearance changed, giving him a somewhat youthful appearance.

"Grandpa, your hair has changed. It's not as white as it used to be, and your skin has become fairer and rosier."

Dugu Lin had carefully observed his grandfather's hair color. It used to be pale and dull, but now it was silvery-white. Moreover, his skin was now fuller and more rosy. The changes before and after were completely different.

The phrase "white hair and youthful face" perfectly describes Dugu Bo now. In addition, he no longer has to worry about the poison taking effect and is free from the torment of illness, so Dugu Bo's mood has improved a lot!

She looked radiant!

"Really? Hahaha~~"

Dugu Bo laughed heartily a few times, then asked, "Lin'er, how's the research on the immortal herbs going?"

"I've already decided which two divine herbs to prepare for you and your sister."

Dugu Lin opened the Immortal Herb Catalogue and said, "The first one I've prepared for you is: the Immortal-grade Jade Phosphorous Seven-Flaw Flower! It grows in the center of the Jade Phosphorous Seven-Flaw Flower cluster outside the Ice and Fire Yin-Yang Eye. It's the most suitable for your Jade Phosphorous Serpent King, and it might even help the Jade Phosphorous Serpent King advance further."

Upon hearing this, Dugu Bo frowned slightly and said with a furrowed brow, "The Seven Absolute Flowers of Azure Phosphorus? I have some recollection of it; it's an exceptionally potent herb. Back then, I could sense that it seemed to share the same toxins as my Azure Phosphorus Serpent King, but I was severely poisoned at the time and dared not even approach it, fearing that the toxins in my body would be triggered by this celestial-grade poisonous herb."

After a pause, Dugu Bo pondered for a moment and then said, "Let's give the Jade Phosphorous Seven Absolute Flowers to Yan'er. It's more suitable for her. Grandpa is already old, so we can choose something else."

"I have prepared other celestial items for my sister. This celestial item, the Jade Scale Seven Wonders Flower, is for you. Moreover, the Jade Scale Seven Wonders Flower is too poisonous, and my sister may not be able to withstand it."

"Is that so? That makes sense! Yan'er's cultivation is too weak, and the poison of the Jade Phosphorous Seven Absolute Flowers is too strong."

Dugu Lin continued, "Grandpa, didn't you condense a poison pill? When you consume the Seven Deadly Flowers of Azure Phosphorus, if your soul bone can't hold too much poison, you can fuse the excess poison into the poison pill. That way, you can be absolutely certain!"

"Haha~ Don't worry, Grandpa is confident. Tell Grandpa what kind of divine food you prepared for Yan'er."

Dugu Lin turned to another page and said, "Look, this is: Immortal Grade Earth Dragon Golden Melon. It can evolve my sister's martial soul and grant her an earth-attribute soul power. It can also completely resolve the martial soul defects of her descendants."

Dugu Bo nodded in satisfaction and said, "Hmm, not bad! In that case, the Earth Dragon Golden Melon is indeed more suitable for Yan'er."

"Of course! The celestial treasures I give my sister will definitely be better than the ones I give Grandpa. Grandpa, you won't be jealous, will you?"

boom!

"You brat!"

Dugu Bo slapped Dugu Lin on the back of the head in a fit of anger.

"Hehe~ It doesn't hurt or itch."

"Stop joking around, tell us what the second divine plant you chose for us is!"

"Grandpa, let's make this clear first! The second immortal plant will require you to mature for several years before you can eat it." Dugu Lin was still preoccupied with the loss of several levels of soul power.

"It's to prevent the medicinal properties of rare herbs from clashing, Grandpa understands."
