Douluo Continent: I Have a Diverse Order-Taking Platform

The sky was just beginning to lighten.

A faint glimmer of dawn appeared in the distance to the east.

Liu Yuanzheng sat cross-legged on the roof, his eyes fixed on the east. He slowly inhaled through his nose and exhaled gently through his mouth, creating a beautiful cycle of gentle inhalation and soft exhalation.

As a wisp of purple aura slowly appeared, Liu Yuan focused his mind completely, staring intently as if trying to make the purple aura enter his eyes.

Until the colors of the rising sun covered everything, and the purple aura disappeared…

Liu Yuan then closed his eyes and exhaled a breath of stale air.

"call--"

Like a ribbon, it slowly dissipated.

After sitting quietly for a while, Liu Yuan opened his eyes again. The purple light flashing in his eyes was the result of his cultivation of the Purple Demon Eye.

Nearly a year,

He devoted most of his energy to cultivation.

They mastered every single one of the Tang Clan's unique skills.

Moreover, he passed on the "Mysterious Heaven Treasure Record" to his parents. Just as in Rule Five, Liu's parents had no doubts about the origin of the "Mysterious Heaven Treasure Record" and accepted it without hesitation.

"I wonder when the soul beasts will arrive?"

After adjusting his own state,

Liu Yuan rolled off the roof.

Two months ago, he had already successfully broken through to level 10, which allowed him to obtain his first spirit ring. In order to obtain a suitable spirit ring, he studied many plant-type spirit beasts.

Ultimately, the target was set on the "Golden-topped Populus euphratica".

Although this plant-type soul beast is not top-tier, and is on par with the Demon Eye Tree, it has one thing that ordinary plant-type soul beasts cannot replace: its well-developed root system.

Based on this,

The Golden-Crowned Poplar became the only plant-type soul beast that could survive deep in the desert, even surpassing the Blue Silver Grass.

However, when Liu Yuan told his father about this and wanted him to take him to the desert to hunt for the first soul ring, his father resolutely refused, saying that going deep into the desert was too dangerous.

Therefore, he had a better idea.

That means handing it over to the Soul Hunter Team.

Tell them to bring back a live golden-topped poplar tree.

After all, the Golden-Crowned Poplar is merely a plant-type spirit beast, and it doesn't possess particularly strong offensive capabilities. Moreover, it only requires a hundred-year-old spirit beast, whose intelligence and instincts are almost nonexistent at this stage.

If it weren't for the extreme danger of the desert where it was located...

These kinds of spirit beasts might have gone extinct long ago.

Liu Yuan readily agreed to the proposal.

Now all he has to do is wait.

Judging by the time, it would take a month and a half to travel from Xingluo City to the desert and back. Two months... should be about right.

Then, Liu Yuan had a sudden thought.

The panel of the Douluo Multiverse Order-Taking Platform opens.

He glanced at the ten tasks updated today.

Then refresh again…

"It's boring."

Liu Yuan sighed helplessly.

My skills were ultimately too low, and I couldn't take on most of the tasks. After nearly a year, the number of tasks I could take on was very limited, and the rewards were not particularly substantial.

Fortunately, it gave him some comfort.

He discovered how to make things more advantageous for himself.

That is, the timelines of many multiverses are thousands or even tens of thousands of years before the era of Peerless Tang Sect.

In these eras,

Many treasures have not been recognized for their true value.

For example: whale glue.

In their time, whale glue was a priceless treasure for enhancing physical strength. But in those times, whale glue was merely an aphrodisiac, expensive but still affordable.

Therefore, whenever Liu Yuan accepted a mission from this era, if the reward was marked "changeable," he would change it to whale glue. He would then collect the reward after obtaining the issuer's consent.

Nearly a year,

They harvested four pieces of 100-year-old whale glue and one piece of 1000-year-old whale glue.

As for the ten-thousand-year-old whale glue... it was an expensive item in those times, and its value was determined by the mission and reward.

So I never received a single piece.

"well--"

With a sigh, Liu Yuan shut down the platform.

Just as he was about to go back inside, he heard, "Yuan'er."

Suddenly, Liu's father's voice came from outside the gate.

As the mansion gates opened

Liu's father carried a poplar tree into the room.

Upon seeing the golden-crowned poplar, Liu Yuan's eyes lit up immediately. "A golden-crowned poplar, about seven hundred years old!"

"That's right!"

After setting down the golden-topped poplar tree he was carrying, Liu's father hurriedly called to Liu Yuan, "Come and absorb it quickly. You've been waiting for two whole months, you must be getting impatient, kid." His tone was somewhat teasing.

He knew that Liu Yuan had consumed whale glue that was hundreds and thousands of years old.

Therefore, absorbing a 700-year-old plant-type soul beast that is not particularly aggressive is not a problem.

"Thank goodness, thank goodness..."

After taking a closer look, Liu Yuan nodded in satisfaction.

He ripped off the cloth bag covering the bottom of the golden-topped poplar, revealing the root system that the Soul Hunting Squad had wrapped with clods of soil.

After cleaning the clods of dirt by hand,

Liu Yuan didn't hesitate and immediately lit a fire.

Because the Golden-Crowned Poplar is a plant-type spirit beast with tenacious vitality, it cannot be killed by ordinary means. Therefore, the best way is to burn its roots completely.

"boom--"

The torch was lowered, and the flames roared.

Soon,

The roots of the golden-topped poplar were completely burned by the flames.

As the flames spread, its canopy gradually lost its luster. As the golden roof completely withered, a deep yellow spirit ring slowly emerged, rising into the air and releasing fluctuations of spirit power.

"Buzz—"

After extinguishing the small flame on the golden-topped poplar tree, Liu Yuan gazed at the spirit ring, a burning desire rising within him. If he could absorb it, he would become a true spirit master.

He then sat cross-legged and used his soul power to guide the deep yellow soul ring, which trembled slightly and floated above Liu Yuan's head.

At this point, "sit cross-legged and focus your mind on your martial spirit."

Father Liu's expression had turned solemn, and he said in a deep voice, "Absorbing a soul ring is no small matter. No matter what, you must remain clear-headed."

"Yes."

Liu Yuan's heart sank.

With a flash of blue light, Yuan Liu's phantom swayed behind him.

As the spirit ring above his head sank, the overflowing yellow light on the spirit ring seemed to have found an outlet, and immediately surged into Liu Yuan's meridians like a flood.

Sensing this situation, Liu Yuan immediately activated the Mysterious Heaven Technique, and gentle soul power flowed through his limbs and bones.

However, in this process

As the Xuan Tian Gong was activated, the corpse of the Golden-Topped Poplar, concealed by the Yuan Liu Martial Soul, emitted a verdant light.

Unbeknownst to Liu's father, the green light emanating from these corpses was absorbed by the branches and leaves of the Yuan Liu phantom and then slowly merged into Liu Yuan's body.

This sudden change caused Liu Yuan to relax almost instinctively. It was as if he had taken some kind of tonic, something nourishing his body as he absorbed the spirit ring. Even the process of absorbing the spirit ring became much easier.
