Douluo Continent: The Spirit A Yin, a Master of Both Bow and Sword

Chapter 61 Soul-Rising Grass

"Shhh..."

Sounds came from the bushes. From the attack on the small group of soul beasts when they entered the forest, to the surprise attack by the Titan Giant Ape, to the current situation, the Shrek Academy students were all on edge. They would be on high alert at the slightest sound.

"Who is it!"

Zhao Wuji let out a low shout, and the seven soul rings beneath his feet lit up as he looked intently at the constantly trembling grass in front of him.

"It's me!"

Ye Tianxing laughed and swiftly cut through the roadside bushes. Finding this group of people in the core area of ​​the Star Dou Great Forest was really not easy; he had almost gotten lost.

"Ye Ping'an?!"

Seeing that Ye Ping was unharmed, Zhao Wuji breathed a sigh of relief and said, "Where did you go just now? We couldn't find you anywhere."

Ye Tianxing remained silent, observing the expressions of the crowd.

Dai Mubai and Ma Hongjun looked indignant, as if to say, "Why didn't you die in the Star Dou Great Forest?" Oscar and Zhu Zhuqing visibly breathed a sigh of relief. Ye Tianxing had no hatred for the two of them; they were just ordinary classmates.

As for Ning Rongrong, her expression at this moment was quite intriguing.

Ye Tianxing had a falling out with Ning Rongrong as soon as he arrived at Shrek Academy. The reason was simple: "Your father wants to kill me, why should I be nice to you?"

Ye Tianxing explained with a smile, "With my strength, I'll be fine. It's my first time in the Star Dou Great Forest, so I was inevitably attracted by the surrounding scenery. I wandered around for a while and it took me quite a bit of effort to find you all."

"Hmph!" Ma Hongjun sneered, "The Star Dou Great Forest is fraught with danger. Your reckless behavior is simply causing us trouble."

"Really?" Ye Tianxing scratched his head and said casually, "It's still better than someone who was so scared of the Titan Ape that they wet their pants, right? I could smell it from far away."

"You!" Ma Hongjun's face turned red with anger. His pants were not dry yet, and a gust of wind blew by, making him feel a chill in his crotch.

"Ye Ping'an, don't go too far!" Dai Mubai chose to stand up for his underling.

"Wasn't it Ma Hongjun who started this? What? Your dog got kicked, and you, the master, want to seek justice?" Ye Tianxing retorted sharply, showing no respect for Dai Mubai.

Although the other party is a prince of the Star Luo Empire with a prestigious status, he may also inherit the throne in the future.

Compared to Dai Mubai, I'm not bad at all! I have the Spirit Hall on my side and two trump cards—two 100,000-year-old spirit beasts—I'm really not giving Dai Mubai any face.

"Say that again if you dare!" Dai Mubai clenched his fists so tightly that they cracked, his eyes filled with murderous intent as he looked at Ye Tianxing.

"A man being looked down upon by a woman, Dai Mubai, you are the first person I, Ye Ping'an, have ever seen in my life!" Ye Tianxing chose to ignite the explosive barrel.

Dai Mubai roared to the sky, letting out a startling tiger's roar. The moment two soul skills appeared beneath his feet, Dai Mubai, his eyes filled with murderous intent, flashed in front of Ye Tianxing.

However, instead of Ye Pingan being beaten down, Dai Mubai was slapped across the face by Ye Pingan, losing several teeth and spinning 360 degrees before crashing to the ground.

Ye Ping'an did not use any soul skills, but used only one hand to defeat Dai Mubai, who was the most powerful and had the highest soul power among them.

Ma Hongjun was startled, Ning Rongrong was horrified, and Zhu Zhuqing and Oscar were taken aback. Had Ye Ping'an become stronger again? Or was this his original strength?

"You bastard! Just you wait! I swear I'll never let you get away with this!" Dai Mubai's face was swollen, with five clear handprints, indicating that Ye Ping'an had used force.

Ye Tianxing sneered, not caring at all about Dai Mubai's threat.

With the evolution of his first martial soul, the Drywood Bow, completed, and having acquired the Eight-Cornered Mystic Ice Grass and the Flame Emperor, Ye Tianxing had already surpassed his own strength.

Ye Tianxing doesn't take Dai Mubai seriously yet; he didn't before, he doesn't now, and he certainly won't in the future.

Dai Mubai's previous movements were fully visible to his eyes, slow frame by frame, full of flaws.

Ye Tianxing was simply choosing the easiest way to end the battle. Who said that soul master duels must involve the use of soul skills? Can't you just use your hands?

Seeing the dispute was over, Zhao Wuji scolded, "Alright! What kind of time is this to be fighting amongst yourselves? If you want to fight, go back to your own territory. Xiao San is in grave danger. Xiao Wu also said that this Human-Faced Demon Spider's spirit ring age has exceeded the absorption limit for the third spirit ring, and its life is in imminent danger!"

"A human-faced demon spider?"

Ye Tianxing didn't look at Tang San, but instead became interested in a plant next to the corpse of the Human-Faced Demon Spider.

"Strange, what kind of plant is this?"

Ye Tianxing had been to the Ice and Fire Yin-Yang Eye, where the plants were all-encompassing. While not all of them were found on the continent, Ye Tianxing had seen the vast majority of medicinal herbs there.

The only thing Ye Tianxing had never heard of was this purplish-black plant that resembled a withered vine.

The reason for ignoring Tang San is simply that we know very well what's going to happen next: it's just about obtaining the Eight Spider Lances, right? Why make it sound like such a big deal?

Ye Tianxing stood firmly on the ground without making a sound, while Tang San, who was absorbing the soul ring, frowned.

The latest novel is first published here!

"This is the Soul-Rising Grass."

The voice of the Eight-Cornered Ice Grass suddenly resounded in Ye Tianxing's mind.

"Soul-raising grass?" Ye Tianxing examined it carefully and asked, "Judging from the name, it can't be a herb that can enhance soul power, right?"

"You're absolutely right," the Eight-Cornered Mystic Ice Grass explained. "It's true that this grass can enhance soul power, but it's also one of the most poisonous substances in the world, ten times stronger than the poison of that so-called Poison Douluo. Once you soul masters consume it, you can increase your soul power by one level, but there's one thing to note: you must first endure the torment of the poison before you can succeed."

The old poisoner's poison was already strong enough, but this herb was ten times stronger than the Jade Phosphorous Serpent King's poison. Ye Tianxing estimated that no one in the entire Douluo Continent could withstand it.

Ye Tianxing stared at the Soul-Ascending Grass for a moment, and a method suddenly came to mind. He asked, "Eight-Cornered One, let me ask you, if we use the special environment of the Ice and Fire Yin-Yang Well, combined with the immortal herbs I have, can we refine it into a pill that has no side effects and completely enhances soul power?"

"It's possible, but you'll need to find someone skilled in poisons, and this type of pill has many limitations. For example, a pill made by adding celestial herbs can raise a Soul Saint or Soul Douluo by one level, but its effect on Title Douluo is negligible. This is because they have already reached the peak of their lives, and they have to walk the rest of the road alone. Even if they take celestial herbs, it will only play a supporting role."

"I see."

Ye Tianxing nodded and used the Seven Star Sword to lift the Soul-Ascending Grass.

"Tianxing, are you out of your mind?! You dare to touch the Soul-Ascending Grass?" Zhao Wuji was startled by Ye Tianxing's actions.

"Oh?" Ye Tianxing's eyes lit up. "Teacher Zhao, do you know about Soul-Ascending Grass?"

"How could I not recognize it? In our time, Soul-Ascending Grass was an absolute taboo!" Zhao Wuji warned. "This grass has very strict growing conditions; it only grows from highly venomous soul beasts like the Human-Faced Demon Spider in the vicinity. Because it can rapidly increase soul power, it was sought after by some people, but without exception, all of them died after consuming it."

"Since then, the Spirit Hall, the Heaven Dou Empire, and the Star Luo Empire jointly issued a notice to completely eradicate the Soul Ascension Grass from the Douluo Continent. Since that day, there has been no trace of the Soul Ascension Grass on the entire Douluo Continent."

"I never expected there would be one here!"
