Douluo Continent: What should I do if I don't have a cheat system?

Chapter 57 Welcome Back

After saying that, Jerry and Xiao Wu flew directly into the forest on their swords. Ye Lingling, who was behind Xiao Wu, was so frightened that she hugged Xiao Wu tightly!

Having flown over the poisonous area, they had just entered the ten-thousand-year region. Suddenly, roars echoed throughout the entire region, and then various ten-thousand-year soul beasts soared into the sky! They quickly flew to Jerry and Xiao Wu, and said, "Jerry, Xiao Wu, welcome back!" Their communication with Jerry was purely telepathic, so on the surface it appeared to be the roars of the soul beasts!

Ye Lingling was so frightened that her legs went weak. Her little face was full of terror, but she didn't dare to cry. She clung tightly to Xiao Wu and refused to let go!

At this moment, a loud roar came, and all the soul beasts made way for it. A winged Titan Giant Ape, wearing armor and holding an iron rod, flew towards them at an extremely fast speed!

"It's over, it's over, Xiao Wu is a Titan Ape, a Titan Ape. And a flying Titan Ape at that! We're doomed!" Ye Lingling had given up struggling and said in despair!

"Don't worry, don't worry, didn't I tell you we have people in the Star Dou Great Forest? Look, our friends have come to pick us up!" Jerry said!

"Friends? Titan Ape?" Ye Lingling's expression was beyond words!

"Jerry and Xiaowu, you're back! Daming is still waiting for you!" said the Titan Ape. Daming's body was too big to come out easily!

"Okay, let's go!" Jerry said, then jumped onto Erming's shoulder, and Xiaowu and Lingling followed suit!

"I...I...I...I actually stood on the Titan Ape!" Ye Lingling felt that ever since she met Jerry and Xiao Wu, one shocking event after another had occurred!

They soon arrived at the core area, where Da Ming was already waiting!

"Azure Bull Python? How come it has wings? Titan Giant Ape has them too, and so do armor, and so many soul beasts in the Ten Thousand Year Region have wings! Who compiled all the soul beast information I studied before? It's all wrong!" Ye Lingling was very surprised!

Seeing Lingling like this, Jerry and Xiaowu burst into laughter.

"Lingling, you need to learn to accept it gradually!"

Then, she led Lingling to Jerry's small house. "I didn't expect that there would still be people living in the core area!" Lingling said again.

"Lingling, this is our house! Xiaowu and I have always lived in the Great Forest, and we have a very good relationship with the spirit beasts!"

"Da Ming, this is Ye Lingling, our friend, a very trusted friend. She's back because both Lingling and Xiao Wu need spirit rings!" Jerry said to Da Ming telepathically.

Da Ming quickly understood, and then communicated with Jerry's consciousness, "Sister Xiao Wu needs a spirit ring now?"

"Yes, that's right. After the crystal ball absorbed Xiao Wu's spirit ring last time, Xiao Wu can no longer form spirit rings on her own!"

"So, in that case, Xiao Wu is no different from a human!"

"Yes, but I don't know if there are any soul bones left! I haven't figured out how soul bones are formed yet!"

"I also brought a lot of medicinal herbs this time, including eleven immortal herbs. I'm going to plant them in the core area. You and Erming need to take good care of them for me!"

"Immortal herb? What's that?"

"These magical herbs are incredibly precious; they take tens of thousands of years to grow!" Jerry explained.

"Tens of thousands of years! And it still hasn't become a soul beast?" Da Ming asked, puzzled.

"Yes, they used to grow in a special area, and there was only one of each kind. Once you consume them directly, they're gone. I was thinking of trying to cultivate them later, so I didn't absorb these magical herbs!"

Jerry quickly finished planting all the herbs, then used a few growth skills on them, and the herbs adapted very quickly!

The core area of ​​the Star Dou Great Forest now has a soul power concentration 150 times higher than normal. Even ordinary plants can grow very quickly here.

The Ice and Fire Yin-Yang Well can increase plant growth speed tenfold! But plants growing there cannot transform into soul beasts! Compared to the current core area, it's utterly weak. The core area doesn't suppress plants from becoming soul beasts, and those that do cultivate even faster! Even in other areas now, the soul power concentration is at least ten times higher!

So once the herbs adapt to their environment, they start to grow like crazy!

"Lingling, what age limit are you thinking of for your fourth spirit ring?" Jerry asked Lingling.

"Any spirit beast will do, as long as it's around 7,000 years old! It doesn't matter what spirit beast's spirit ring I absorb!"

"Then I'll find one for you!" Jerry remembered that there was a trace of dark attribute soul power next to Lingling's soul power seed! So he prepared to find a dark attribute plant for Lingling!

Within the dark area, there now lies only a 100,000-year-old soul beast. The Dark Withered Tree is a very large tree, leafless, and its appearance is identical to a dead tree; most people would mistake it for a dead tree and ignore it. Some passing creatures absorb a faint scent emanating from the Dark Withered Tree, a scent so faint it's difficult to notice without careful attention. After absorbing a certain amount of this scent, they become enraged, turning on each other and becoming nourishment for the Dark Withered Tree.

However, it is currently the boss of the Dark Zone, and it cannot be cultivated in a short time if sacrificed! I will not be staying for long this time! So I chose a 30,000-year-old Dark Glow Grass.

After communicating with the Dark Glow Grass, it quickly agreed, and Jerry promised to plant it in the core area after the sacrifice! Upon hearing that it would be planted in the core area, the Dark Glow Grass couldn't wait to sacrifice itself!

"Lingling, this is a 30,000-year-old Dark Glowing Grass. I think it's perfect for you! I'll offer it as a sacrifice for you!"

"Thirty thousand years? Dark attribute? Sacrifice? Really? Really?" Lingling was excited again.

"Yes, that's right! Let's begin! Dark Glowing Grass, start the sacrifice!"

After saying that, the Dark Glow Grass began to offer sacrifices, and Jerry used his mental power to observe!

As the sacrifice was made, Jerry observed that the wood-attribute soul power seed in the Nine-Heart Begonia began to absorb the wood-attribute soul power seed of the Dark Firefly Grass. It was quickly absorbed, and after the absorption, the wood-attribute soul power seed of the Nine-Heart Begonia did not change much, it seems that it did not evolve!

Then, the dark attribute soul power seed of the Dark Glow Grass began to enter the Martial Soul. Upon entering the Martial Soul, the seed detected this wisp of dark soul power and flew directly towards it, releasing energy and slowly merging into this wisp of dark attribute. As more and more energy merged in, that wisp of dark attribute soul power began to condense into a soul power seed. Jerry was all too familiar with this scene; after condensing into a soul power seed, he quickly absorbed the dark attribute soul power seed of the Dark Glow Grass!

Then, without any surprises, the 30,000 years of cultivation began to strengthen Ye Lingling. After reaching its limit, the excess cultivation returned to the spirit ring. The spirit ring absorption was now complete. No spirit bone—as expected!

"Lingling, quickly feel your martial spirit!" Jerry said hastily!

"Hmm," Lingling began to sense her martial spirit!

"Jerry, what's going on? My spirit has changed color! It used to be pink, but now it's dark purple. My spirit skills have all changed too! My first spirit skill used to be a group heal, but now it also deals group damage over time. My second spirit skill was also a group heal, but the healing speed was twice that of the first skill. Now it also deals group damage over time, and the damage speed is twice that of the first skill. My third spirit skill's healing and damage have both tripled, and my fourth spirit skill is quadrupled! Wow, I finally have an attack skill now!"

"Thank you, Jerry!" Lingling happily hugged Jerry!

"And I have even more exciting news for you! I've discovered the curse of the Nine-Heart Begonia!" Jerry exclaimed.

"What? You've discovered it? Tell me how to break it!" Ye Lingling was more excited than ever before, tears streaming down her face! So many years, so many years, generation after generation, have failed to break this curse!
