Douluo Continent: Peerless God General, starting by deceiving Qian Renxue

Chapter 25 Consuming Immortal Herbs and Fusion

Nan Tianchen was overjoyed beyond words. His family's inherited martial soul had actually mutated into such a miraculous Ancient Thunder Book.

As expected, his shameless act of repaying kindness by asking to marry Lan Xue was the right decision. Although it was a bit shameless, the reward he received was immense.

"Father, I've also recorded the locations of many other rare and precious treasures here. When I become stronger, I'll find them all and present them to you as a tribute," Nan Feihuang said cutely.

The couple was deeply moved by this scene, especially Lan Xue, who realized that her beloved had been busy these past few days, moving treasures and exchanging money, and even forging an imperial edict to deceive Jia Chong—all for her sake.

Lan Xue couldn't resist picking up her son and kissing Nan Feihuang's face several times. "My good boy, you're truly my precious baby!"

"It's just a pity that my martial spirit only records the location of some medicinal herbs, but not things like soul bones. Otherwise, we wouldn't even lack soul bones in the future," Nan Feihuang sighed.

The herbs possess the dual nature of ice and fire, and he can indeed provide a lot of them in the future, so this lie can be maintained. However, the soul bone is not so reliable; he can only pour cold water on both of them.

Otherwise, they would think they really have an encyclopedia.

Unexpectedly, Nan Tianchen didn't care at all. "Silly child, just being able to record the location of rare medicinal herbs is already an amazing ability. If you also have a soul bone, then your martial soul is truly too heaven-defying. You must remember that the sun waxes and wanes, the moon is full and then wanes, and even the world is not perfect. Don't pursue the word 'perfection' too much, as it will affect your state of mind."

Nan Tianchen was constantly teaching Nan Feihuang. In his view, Nan Feihuang was still just a child. Although he was precocious, he was still somewhat childish and did not know how to be satisfied.

Sometimes, knowing when to stop is not a bad thing. Although it may seem like a lack of ambition and easy satisfaction, perhaps it simply means that it's the limit of what one can achieve.

"Yes, I understand, Father. Now, please send the imperial physicians to refine the sixth-grade purple fungus and ice crystal lotus into pills. These two should not be difficult to make, as they are single-ingredient pills," Nan Feihuang said.

Nan Tianchen took the prescription and looked at it. "Hmm, these two herbs can be refined into a spiritual medicine called Ice Soul Pill, right? It can increase the soul power of ice-attribute soul masters. That's not bad. According to the prescription, it's not difficult to refine. I can arrange for someone to do it. What about the Crystal Blood Dragon Ginseng?"

Nan Feihuang said, "When the Crystal Blood Dragon Ginseng arrives, let Mother eat it directly. In addition to healing Mother's injuries, this immortal herb can further enhance the properties of the Ice Soul Pill, making her soul power even stronger and purer."

Nan Feihuang does not intend to refine the Crystal Blood Dragon Ginseng into medicine, not because it is impossible, but because the risk is too great.

Using celestial-grade medicine to refine pills does indeed produce more extraordinary results, but it also demands a high level of alchemy skill. Nan Feihuang had no confidence in the alchemy abilities of the imperial physicians.

If it fails, the magical herb will be destroyed.

Nan Feihuang didn't want to gamble.

Perhaps he could wait until he grows up and his skills become more profound before practicing, but that would take a long time, and Lan Xue's current body simply cannot afford to wait.

Accumulated hidden injuries, growing increasingly severe, not only affect future cultivation but also lifespan.

Seeing her coughing every day and her pale face, as her son, Nan Feihuang could no longer bear it. Compared to any greater benefit, he only wanted to cure her as soon as possible.

With the combined efforts of the royal physician, the medical soul master, and the fire-attribute soul master, three Ice Soul Pills were successfully produced in no time.

The greatest advantage of alchemy, besides its stronger medicinal effects, is its quantifiable nature.

Each of these three pills is just as effective as the original Grade 6 Purple Ganoderma and Ice Crystal Lotus, but the three of them are equivalent to tripling the medicinal effect.

Of course, this only applies to medium-grade pills. If it were a peerless divine pill, it might take several celestial plants to refine just one, which would be considered extremely lucky.

But the effects of those drugs are often incredibly potent.

At Nan Feihuang's suggestion, Lan Xue took two Ice Soul Pills in one go, and in an instant, her entire body was covered in ice.

The ice wouldn't harm her, because she was an ice-attribute soul master.

Right now, she is simply absorbing the power of ice and snow within the ice.

With Lan Xue's cultivation level approaching that of a Title Douluo, it wouldn't take her more than two hours to refine the medicinal power of a few mid-grade pills.

But when she woke up, she was still at level 89.

That's because her hidden injuries were still there, and the Ice Soul Pill hadn't been able to heal her.

Moreover, she had only refined the medicinal power of the Ice Soul Pill into her body, but had not yet fully absorbed it. The real key was yet to come.

Nan Tianchen walked to Lan Xue's side with the Crystal Blood Dragon Ginseng. "Xue'er, Huang'er said that you must consume the entire herb and then immediately combine it with the medicinal power of the Ice Soul Pill within your body. This will maximize the simultaneous activation of the medicinal power of both!"

"Don't worry, I will never let Huang'er down!" Lan Xue nodded. Over the years, she had also been troubled by this hidden injury for far too long.

She also dreams of breaking through the bottleneck of level 89, the peak level.

Although she said she didn't hate Tang Hao, it would be impossible for her to feel no resentment at all.

"Tang Hao, one day I will stand on the same level as you, and then, carrying my son's expectations, I will challenge you again openly and fairly. Next time, I will not lose to you again!" Lan Xue made up her mind and swallowed the Crystal Blood Dragon Ginseng.

The medicinal effects of this celestial herb are more than ten times stronger than the two Ice Soul Pills from before.

Moreover, due to its unique nature, it simultaneously integrates and absorbs two different medicinal powers, and breaks through the bottleneck between Soul Douluo and Title Douluo.

The time Lan Xue needs will inevitably be much longer than that of the original Shrek Seven Devils.

It would be impossible without several days and nights of effort.

"Issue a decree to suspend the court assembly for seven days. I must stay with my wife and protect the Queen. I will not see anyone here," Nan Tianchen decreed.

He then sat cross-legged outside Lan Xue's room and closed his eyes to wait.

Although one of them married for personal gain and the other to repay a debt of gratitude, they had developed feelings for each other over the years.

Given Lan Xue's beauty and outstanding qualities, it would indeed be difficult for Nan Tianchen not to fall in love with her after spending so much time together.

Nan Feihuang did not disturb them. He was 100% confident that Lan Xue would fully recover and break through to the next realm, so he was no longer worried.

"Ahhh..." Back at the East Palace, Lü Lingqi suddenly pointed to her throat and complained to Nan Feihuang. She also wanted to heal her throat so that she could talk and chat with Nan Feihuang every day.

Nan Feihuang smiled, took Lü Lingqi's hand, and said, "Don't worry, Lingqi, I will definitely heal you, I promise!"

"Ahhh (I believe you)!"

In the inner palace, Nan Tianchen and Lan Xue watched over each other, while in the East Palace, Nan Feihuang and Lü Lingqi also trusted each other.

Based on this, their rise to power was unstoppable.
