Douluo: Martial Soul Asura Sword, Supreme Killing God

Where the Demon-Slaying Douluo was, the light around him suddenly receded, and he abruptly opened his eyes and stood up.

He clenched his fists, feeling the surging power within him, his face filled with undisguised ecstasy.

"Is this level 96...?" he muttered to himself. "Compared to level 95, it's like night and day."

After all, Jiangmo was a titled Douluo who had cultivated for many years, and his temperament had long been tempered into a calm and resilient one. He took a deep breath and quickly suppressed his surging emotions.

With a flash, he arrived in front of Su Mo, and without saying a word, he clasped his hands in a salute: "Thank you, Your Highness, for bestowing this immortal herb. I will never forget this kindness!"

Su Mo quickly said, "Elder Demon Subduer, there's no need for that. You've cultivated diligently for many years and have already accumulated profound knowledge. The immortal herbs were just a natural consequence of your efforts."

The demon-slaying demon straightened up and shook his head: "No, I know my limits. Without this opportunity, I would have stopped at level ninety-six at most in this life."

The black jade bamboo bestowed by His Highness not only greatly increased my strength, but also gave me the possibility of reaching a higher realm.

This kindness will be forever etched in my heart; I will serve you with my life, even unto death, if you ever need my help!"

His expression was resolute, and every word he spoke came from the bottom of his heart.

At this moment, Golden Crocodile Douluo slowly spoke up: "Alright, we're all on the same side, no need for such formalities."

"Demon Slayer, you have now reached level ninety-six, meeting the requirements of the Hall of Offerings. From this day forward, you will be an Elder of the Hall of Offerings."

Jiangmo nodded hurriedly and said, "Yes, Elder Jin'e."

Jin E waved his hand: "The Hall of Offerings doesn't concern itself with formalities. We are ranked by strength and address each other as brothers. Once you enter the Hall of Offerings, you are family. From now on, you can call me Second Brother."

The demon slayer paused for a moment, then nodded emphatically: "Yes, Second Brother!"

The golden crocodile nodded slightly, acknowledging the agreement.

At this moment, Yue Guan cupped his hands and said, "Congratulations to Elder Demon Subduer on your great progress in strength and for joining the ranks of the enshrined!"

The demon-slaying demon nodded in return.

Su Mo looked at Yue Guan and said, "Bishop Yue Guan, you should also refine the immortal herb as soon as possible."

I know you may feel some reluctance, but the sooner you refine the immortal herb, the better its effects will be. Only by transforming it into your own strength can you truly honor this treasure.

Upon hearing this, a hint of hesitation flashed across Yue Guan's face.

The Qirong Tongtian Chrysanthemum was the most coveted treasure he had ever dreamed of. Now that he had it, he couldn't wait to hold it in his hands and admire it day and night. How could he bear to refine it now?

But His Highness is right.

Moreover, the number of immortal herbs is limited, and there are many soul masters in the Spirit Hall. His Highness has bestowed upon him only one. He must not fail to live up to this favor.

Yue Guan nodded emphatically: "This subordinate will begin absorbing it now."

He turned and walked to an open space, took out the Qirong Tongtian Chrysanthemum, and sat cross-legged.

He looked down at the immortal herb in his palm, gently stroked it a few times, and then began to absorb and refine it.

A soft halo of light slowly enveloped his entire body.

……

Time slips away quietly.

After a long while, the light around Yue Guan subsided, and a powerful aura suddenly erupted. His soul power broke through to level ninety.

Yue Guan opened his eyes, feeling the transformative changes within his body, his excited body trembling slightly.

At level ninety, Yue Guan finally had one foot in the ranks of Title Douluo!

Overwhelmed with emotion, he quickly approached Su Mo and knelt on one knee: "Thank you for your life-saving grace, Your Highness!"

"Get up." Su Mo reached out to help him up.

Yue Guan stood up, his expression still one of intense emotion.

"By the way, don't rush your ninth spirit ring," Su Mo instructed. "Wait until I finish refining the immortal herb before we head to the Star Dou Great Forest to hunt for it. With Grandpa Golden Crocodile's help, you'll be able to obtain a spirit ring of a higher age."

The Qirong Tongtian Chrysanthemum that Yue Guan took was almost a perfect match for him, greatly enhancing his talent. The age limit of his ninth soul ring was related to his future potential.

Given Yue Guan's current talent and his loyalty, Su Mo would naturally do his best to help him raise his potential.

If given the opportunity, a 100,000-year soul ring would also be acceptable.

"Your Highness, I will follow your arrangements!" Yue Guan replied excitedly.

He was still worried about his ninth spirit ring. The only person in the Spirit Hall who could fully help him hunt for a high-level spirit ring was his good friend, Ghost.

Even if the two of them joined forces, they were still far inferior to a single Golden Crocodile Douluo.

With the Golden Crocodile Douluo in charge, not only is the situation secure, but there is also a chance to hunt down soul beasts of higher age.

Su Mo nodded slightly and said, "You should have noticed that this place not only accelerates plant growth, but also produces medicinal herbs of far superior quality to those from outside."

Therefore, you will remain here permanently to cultivate more rare medicinal herbs to supply the Spirit Hall's needs in the future.

Yue Guan quickly replied, "Yes, Your Highness, I will do my utmost to live up to your expectations."

"By the way, your soul tool should be able to store living things, right?" Su Mo suddenly asked.

“Okay.” Yue Guan nodded.

"I'll borrow it for a while."

"Your Highness, please wait a moment while I take the contents out."

Yue Guan quickly took out the flowers and plants she had carefully cultivated, along with her simple luggage, and then presented them with both hands.

Soul tools are the private possessions of soul masters, and Yue Guan's actions demonstrate his trust and loyalty to Su Mo.

Su Mo took the soul tool, turned to look at the Demon-Slaying Douluo, and said:

"Elder Demon Slayer, I will now devote myself to seclusion and cultivation. After I emerge from seclusion, I will continue to train for a period of time. I don't know when I will be able to return to Martial Soul City."

I will harvest the remaining immortal herbs later and explain the effects and precautions of each one. Please take them back to my teacher so he can distribute them and improve the overall strength of the Spirit Hall.

He paused, his expression becoming more serious: "Also, you'll need to inform our teacher about the follow-up arrangements between this place and the Spirit Hall, and have him make the necessary arrangements."

Sunset Forest is located within the territory of the Heaven Dou Empire, and even in the suburbs of the Heaven Dou Imperial City. It is impossible for the Heaven Dou royal family to give this place to the Spirit Hall.

Therefore, our operation must be carried out covertly, and with a limited number of people, lest we alert the enemy and expose this location.

The Demon-Slaying Douluo nodded: "Understood, Your Highness. Please focus on your cultivation."

"Okay, I'll go pick the immortal herbs first," Su Mo nodded.

“I’ll go too,” Bibi Dong, who had been quiet all along, said.

"Let's go." Su Mo pulled Bibi Dong along and began picking the immortal herbs.

He carefully placed the immortal herb into a jade box that he had prepared beforehand, and then stored it in Yue Guan's soul tool.

Soon, apart from keeping the "Wang Chuan Qiu Shui Lu" to enhance his spiritual power, all the other immortal herbs were harvested.

Afterwards, Su Mo explained the effects and methods of consuming each immortal herb to the Demon-Slaying Douluo in detail, and gave him a few simple instructions.

"Your Highness, I shall take my leave now."

Jiangmo, carrying Yueguan's soul tool, left the Ice and Fire Yin-Yang Well.

After exchanging a few pleasantries with the rest of the group, Su Mo turned around and went to the spring, where he immersed himself in the water again and began his cultivation.

Bibi Dong and Jin E also began their respective cultivation.

Yue Guan devoted himself entirely to the cultivation of medicinal herbs.

He also cleared out several open spaces and planted all the rare and exotic flowers and plants that he had cultivated for many years.

Chapter 32: Demon Subduing Returns to Wuhun City, Six Great Elders

The next day.

Wuhun City, the Pope's Palace.

"Elder Demon Slayer, how come you're back so soon? What major discovery was made in that place?" Qian Xunji asked curiously from the papal throne.

"Your Holiness, please look." The Demon-Slaying Douluo released his martial soul, with nine soul rings swirling around his feet, and the fluctuations of soul power swept through the hall.

"Level 96!" Qianjun Douluo exclaimed in surprise.

His strength was originally about the same as Jiang Mo's, but unexpectedly Jiang Mo broke through before him?

"Elder Demon Slayer, you've broken through?!" Qian Xunji was startled and sat up abruptly from his throne.

The demon-slaying demon withdrew his martial spirit and said, "Actually, my breakthrough this time is also related to that place. It is an unparalleled blessed land that has nurtured many rare and exotic herbs."

There exists a type of herb called "Immortal Herb," ​​which can directly enhance soul power, improve cultivation talent, and has no side effects.

"It was only after consuming the Jade Bamboo bestowed upon me by His Highness Su Mo that I was able to break through my bottleneck and reach level ninety-six."

"A divine medicinal herb?" Qian Xunji frowned slightly.

The Demon-Slaying Douluo took out Yue Guan's soul tool and took out more than a dozen exquisite jade boxes, which were neatly arranged.

He presented one of them to Qian Xunji.

"Your Holiness, this immortal herb is called the Sacred Heart of Light Herb, which is of the attribute of light. It was specially prepared for you by His Highness Su Mo."

"For me?" Qian Xunji was overjoyed, thinking to himself that he hadn't spoiled this disciple for nothing.

He decisively opened the jade box, and in an instant, a rich aura of light rushed out.

It was a fairy herb, pure white as jade, with slender stems that shone with a warm golden light, and a golden stamen the size of a pigeon egg at the top.

Qian Xunji felt that his six-winged angel martial soul desperately craved this immortal herb.

But he forcefully suppressed it and closed the jade box again.

He was self-aware that his talent was the worst in the history of the Qian family, and even if he took this immortal herb, he would not achieve much.

Instead of wasting it on yourself, you might as well leave it to the next generation. Perhaps after your descendants take it, they will have a chance to receive the Nine Trials of the Angels.

"Why don't you introduce these medicinal herbs one by one?" Qian Xunji suppressed his distracting thoughts.

The Demon-Slaying Douluo then explained each point in turn.

Besides the few mentioned in the original work, there are four other immortal herbs that were not mentioned before. Although they are not top-tier immortal herbs, they are still extremely precious.

A plant called the Yellow Springs Spider Lily. Its blood-red petals are as long and thin as feathers, spreading outwards. Each petal is adorned with a touch of white at the tip, and at the base is a dark green stem that supports a blood-red flower crown. The whole plant is surrounded by a dense aura of darkness and death.

There is a plant called Wind Shadow Illusion Grass, a wind-attribute immortal herb. The plant is slender and light, with pale blue and transparent leaves. The entire immortal herb moves without wind.
