Douluo Continent: The Peerless Tang Sect, Angels and Rakshasa Return

Chapter 75 - A Celestial Being Matched with a Beautiful Woman

After walking along the barren hills for quite a while, the Three-Eyed Golden Lion raised its head and grumbled in dissatisfaction, "How long have we been walking? Why do we have to run so far to get a gift!"

"No rush, we'll be there soon..."

As they were talking, they came to a flower garden carefully constructed with white frames. There was only one plant there, a huge chrysanthemum. The chrysanthemum was a beautiful purple, and strangely, each petal looked fluffy and adorable. The whole chrysanthemum was a single, seamless flower, yet it did not emit any fragrance. The stamen in the center was more than half a foot higher than the petals, and the tip of the stamen shone with a faint golden light.

"What is this?" the Three-Eyed Golden Lion asked curiously, while the Crimson King beside him also looked eager to learn.

Qian Lingyun smiled slightly and said to the Three-Eyed Golden Lion, "This is a gift I specially prepared for you. It is called Qirong Tongtian Chrysanthemum, a neutral immortal herb. Eating it can circulate qi in the limbs, open the eight meridians, and help one cultivate an indestructible body."

"Indestructible? Is it that outrageous?" The three-eyed golden lion sniffed the flower with its nose and, after confirming that it was not poisonous, it bit into the flower of the Qirong Tongtian Chrysanthemum and swallowed it without even chewing it.

"Hey, why are you swallowing it directly! You can't eat the root!" Qian Lingyun reacted quickly, grabbing the end of the green root.

Using his legs to clamp the auspicious beast's neck, he pulled the plant roots that the three-eyed golden lion had swallowed out of its mouth in a manner reminiscent of uprooting a willow tree.

The three-eyed golden lion smacked its lips twice, seemingly savoring the taste of this divine delicacy. After a while, it raised its paw and scratched its head, saying with dissatisfaction, "It doesn't seem to have anything special about it, and it doesn't taste like anything either..."

Before she finished speaking, the three-eyed golden lion closed its eyes and crawled down. A layer of white light faintly appeared on its brilliant golden fur. Its limbs were obviously much stronger than before, and the sound of bones cracking could be heard from its body.

Her three eyes shimmered with a dazzling light, and occasionally a low murmur, like the howling of the wind, escaped her throat. Her entire body trembled in a peculiar rhythm.

"Senior Crimson King, I'll leave the auspicious beast in your care. She has already begun absorbing the medicinal power."

"It's our duty, no need to trouble yourself," the Crimson King nodded with his three large heads. His cultivation level was not low, so he naturally noticed the positive changes in the auspicious beast.

After observing the Three-Eyed Golden Lion's condition for a while, Qian Lingyun nodded in satisfaction and pulled Qian Renxue in another direction.

Fifteen minutes later, there was another flowerbed of white bones, but this time there were two different plants.

On the left is an eight-petaled orchid, its petals trembling slightly as if shaking. Its entire body is pure white and exquisite, giving people a sense of purity and otherworldliness.

On the right is a strange, magical herb. Its roots and leaves are like dense, finely combed vines. But at the top is a golden tulip, and its rich tulip scent gives it a magnificent and opulent feel.

"This is for you," Qian Lingyun said with a smile. "These are a pair of Mandarin Duck Immortal Herbs. They can ignore the restriction that only one immortal herb can be consumed at a time. Like the Fiery Apricot and the Eight-Cornered Mystic Ice Grass, they have a complementary effect."

"The one on the left is called Eight-Petaled Fairy Orchid, which has the mildest yet most mellow medicinal properties. It is easily absorbed, but takes a long time to be absorbed. Its function is to strengthen the body's foundation, nourish its vital energy, and expel impurities."

After saying that, Qian Lingyun pointed to the elegant and luxurious plant on the right and said:

"The one on the right is called the Qiluo Tulip, elegant and luxurious. Consuming it allows one to absorb the essence of heaven and earth, the radiance of the sun and moon. It's perfectly suited for the Angelic Martial Soul!"

"That's so thoughtful!" Qian Renxue put her arm around Qian Lingyun and asked, "Have you prepared the immortal items for yourself yet?"

"Of course I've prepared them. I'll just have a little bit," Qian Lingyun replied, continuing to instruct Qian Renxue on how to consume the two immortal herbs.

"The eight-petaled fairy orchid can be chewed and swallowed. It has a sweet and fragrant taste. You only need to gather your soul power to help the medicine integrate into your body and then slowly absorb it."

"The Qiluo Tulip must not be ingested. One must gently inhale the essence from its stamens, slowly absorbing it into the body, and then cultivate one's soul power to allow the medicinal effects to spread throughout the body."

"I understand!" Qian Renxue nodded, reaching out with one hand for the elegant and luxurious tulip, and with the other hand plucking the eight-petaled fairy orchid...

After consuming two celestial herbs, Qian Renxue sat cross-legged. The unique fragrance of the eight-petaled celestial orchid transformed into a faint white mist that emerged from her skin, swirling and undulating around her body.

Behind her, a golden halo enveloped her angelic wings, making her appear as if she were reflected in the sun.

The golden light emanated from Qian Renxue's martial spirit, carrying a rich tulip fragrance. As the golden light flowed, it added a touch of holiness to her exquisite face.

The golden light behind Qian Renxue and the white mist emanating from her seemed to attract each other. The white mist and golden light faintly intertwined in the air, and the two distinct fragrances on her body also condensed together, producing a wonderfully comfortable aroma.

"The effect looks good, it's finally my turn!" Qian Lingyun spread her wings and paused for a while in flower beds number three and four before arriving at flower bed number five, which she had carefully chosen...

"Good afternoon, you two!" Qian Lingyun landed slowly and greeted the two immortal plants, one red and one white, in front of her.

"No, not good at all!" the bright red cabbage grumbled incessantly. "First you drained me of my glue, then you planted me in this dark and gloomy place, and now I'm neighbors with that boring guy, Star Anise..."

"Tch, who wants to be your neighbor!" The large, octagonal white flower shook its petals impatiently and turned to the other side.

"That's enough. I'm here to discuss a deal with you two." Qian Lingyun found a spot where she wouldn't be harmed by the extreme temperatures and sat down. She took out her Rakshasa Demon Scythe and slowly said, "After my elder sister absorbs the two immortal herbs, she'll probably reach level fifty. I hope Jiaojiao, you can sacrifice yourself for her and become her fifth soul ring!"

"Why should I? Taking my treasure isn't enough, you want me to sacrifice myself too!" Liehuo Xingjiao protested angrily. "Taking my treasure and then taking my life is immoral."

"My sister was once a deity. Although she encountered some difficulties, she will definitely become a deity in the future. You offer yourself as a sacrifice to her now, and after she becomes a god, she will take you to the divine realm to enjoy happiness. Isn't that better than waiting to die on the ground?" Qian Lingyun turned her head to the Eight-Cornered Mystic Ice Grass again and said:

"By the same token, I expect you to cooperate fully. Otherwise, I believe that with my methods and the torture... tools present here, I can certainly make you..."

"I agree to sacrifice myself to you, but you must swear by your divine position to resurrect me after becoming a god, otherwise forget it!" The Eight-Cornered Ice Grass agreed quickly, leaving even the Ice-Fire Apricot Fairy standing to the side dumbfounded.

"Bajiao, you agreed so readily?" Liehuo Xingjiao asked incredulously.

"Hmm," the Eight-Cornered Ice Grass responded, looking at Qian Lingyun, and said, "You plan to consume our true form after we've made our sacrifice, right?"

"Yes," Qian Lingyun nodded in agreement.

"Have you chosen which celestial herbs you want to take? Taking both of us at the same time is an exception to the fixed quota of celestial herbs." Liehuo Xingjiaoshu asked anxiously, "If you haven't decided, tell us and we'll help you decide."

"No need, I've already brought it."

As she spoke, Qian Lingyun held a snow-white fairy herb in her hands.

The fairy grass is crystal clear and snow-white, and each leaf looks as if it is about to drip water. It is slender and curved, and looks like the neck of a swan.

This magical herb is called Snow Swan's Kiss. ​​Its only effect is to stimulate. Let alone eating it, even if you come into contact with just a little bit of it, any virus that comes into contact with it will multiply a thousandfold.

This is the best material to enhance the toxicity of Qian Lingyun's Death Scythe. If she succeeds, the Death Spider King Poison, which was already worthy of the title of the ultimate poison, will have an even stronger toxin-producing effect than before.

Douyi Original Text

(Even Tang San didn't know that the Qiluo Tulip that Ning Rongrong ate and the Eight-Petaled Immortal Orchid that Oscar ate were a pair of mandarin duck immortal herbs, just like the Eight-Cornered Mysterious Ice Grass and the Fiery Apricot Delicate Grass that he had eaten, which had a complementary effect.)

(Tang San smiled slightly and said, "Although the 'Looking-Through-Autumn-Water Dew' isn't the best celestial herb, its effects are better than you imagine. Besides, I've already consumed two kinds of celestial herbs, so I can't be greedy anymore. Those two herbs alone are enough to benefit me for a lifetime. Even with this 'Looking-Through-Autumn-Water Dew' before me, I hesitated many times before deciding to take it. Its medicinal effects are very mild and don't conflict with the two celestial herbs I've taken before.")

The Mandarin Duck Immortal Herb can offset the negative effect of one person only being able to consume one herb. Therefore, those who consume the Ice and Fire Immortal Herb and the Immortal Orchid Tulip have the ability to consume a third immortal herb.
