Chapter 47: Immortal Grass Attracts Soul Beasts
Chapter 47: Immortal Grass Attracts Soul Beasts
"Hahaha! Juhuaguan, next time we meet, I'll let you witness the true power of snake venom!"
After breaking through, Dugu Bo immediately thought of Juhuaguan. He could hardly wait to spar with him.
Although his soul power was still slightly inferior, the toxicity of his snake venom had increased by a thousand times, giving him enough confidence to challenge even the powerful Titled Douluo.
Let alone Juhuaguan—even if Guimei joined him, Dugu Bo felt he could take them both on.
On the other side, Davis had also finished refining the medicinal energy of the Longing Dew, and his spiritual power had doubled!
Now, he could absorb soul rings up to 30,000 years. If the soul ring came from a tiger-type soul beast, he might even be able to absorb one with 40,000 or 50,000 years of cultivation.
Speaking of tiger soul beasts, Davis couldn't help thinking of the Dark Demon Evil God Tiger, the powerful soul beast that had once been slain by Tang San.
> "When Tang San killed it, it had cultivated for 60,000 years. I wonder how strong it is now...
But that tiger is extremely elusive, and I don't have the time to hunt for it.
The priority now is to gather all the immortal herbs here.
Grandpa and Grandma are both peak-level Soul Douluos at level 89—if they break through to Titled Douluo, it will greatly boost the national strength of the Star Luo Empire."
With that goal in mind, Davis quickly gathered the Eight-Petal Immortal Orchid, Cockscomb Phoenix Sunflower, Qiluo Tulip, Black Jade Bamboo, Narcissus Jade Muscle Bone, Fragrant Qiluo Immortal Product, a large number of ninth-grade purple fungus, and finally, the King of Flowers—Acacia Heartbroken Red.
The Acacia Heartbroken Red was naturally prepared for Zhu Zhuyun.
The Narcissus Jade Muscle Bone was intended for his sister-in-law, Zhu Zhuqing.
The Black Jade Bamboo, being wood-attributed, was a gift for Anna, his adopted sister and future Minister of Agriculture of the Star Luo Empire.
As a responsible elder brother and mentor, Davis had carefully chosen these treasures.
With his plan complete, Davis prepared to return to Xingluo City, planning to stop at the Star Dou Great Forest on the way to obtain his fifth soul ring.
> "Congratulations on breaking through to level 93, Senior."
> "Haha! My friend, I must say—
That immortal herb you gave me was truly incredible!
I feel my strength has soared. I truly owe you!"
Dugu Bo offered sincere thanks from the heart.
> "Senior, there's no need for that.
I just happened to have a soul bone that countered your condition, and I've also gained a lot myself.
These herbs are priceless for cultivation—I'm more than satisfied."
Dugu Bo laughed.
> "Haha, these herbs, huh? My friend, if you ever need more, just come pick some.
Leave a few for me though!
I still need them to help break future bottlenecks."
> "In that case, thank you, Senior!"
Davis offered a polite bow. After all, he wasn't like that freeloader Tang San who took everything and left nothing. No wonder that ten thousand years later, the Dugu family had vanished completely.
After gathering a few top-grade herbs whose names he didn't even recognize, Davis bid farewell to Dugu Bo.
> "Senior Dugu, now that the poison in your body is resolved, I'll be taking my leave."
But just as he was about to leave, Dugu Bo stopped him.
> "Wait! You're returning to Xingluo City, right?
I'll take you there."
> "Thank you, Senior." Davis accepted the offer gladly.
After all, relying on himself—even with a carriage—it would take at least a month to return to Xingluo City.
Though he could now fly using his Ice and Fire Wings, his flying speed still couldn't compare to that of a seasoned Titled Douluo like Dugu Bo.
And the Ice and Fire Yin-Yang Eyes were extremely far from Xingluo City. Flying there would consume a massive amount of soul power. Letting Dugu Bo carry him was clearly the better option.
> "But Senior, I still need to visit the Star Dou Forest to get my fifth soul ring."
> "Yes, your soul power has reached the bottleneck of level 50. It's time for a new ring. Let's go."
With that, Dugu Bo released his soul power, lifted Davis with one hand, and flew toward the Star Dou Forest!
---
Three days later, the two appeared deep in the Star Dou Great Forest.
After his breakthrough to level 93, Dugu Bo's flight speed was even faster than before—it only took three days to travel the massive distance from the Ice and Fire Yin-Yang Eyes to the forest.
Now it was time to find a suitable soul beast for Davis.
> "My friend," Dugu Bo asked, "What kind of soul skill are you looking for in this fifth ring?
And what kind of soul beast do you think is most suitable?"
> "I want a soul skill focused purely on attack power.
Whether it's single-target or area-of-effect doesn't matter, as long as it's strong enough to kill in one strike!"
Ever since his Martial Spirit had evolved into the Saint White Tiger, Davis no longer needed amplification-type soul skills.
Once possessed, the Saint White Tiger already gave him incredible attack power, speed, ultimate gold attribute, and the White Tiger Domain.
He also had the third soul skill—White Tiger Vajra Transformation, which greatly boosted his power.
So what Davis lacked now was a powerful offensive soul skill, preferably something that would let him challenge opponents far beyond his level.
> "As for soul beasts... I'm looking for a gold-attributed beast, preferably a tiger-type,
and it must have cultivated for at least 30,000 years.
40,000 or 50,000 would be even better."
Gold-attributed soul beasts were known for their destructive power. For example, the Dark Gold Terrorclaw Bear was one of the strongest among them.
> "30,000 years? Are you crazy?" Dugu Bo frowned.
"Don't you know the limit for a fifth soul ring is 10,000 years?
The soul impact from a 30,000-year beast isn't something you can easily withstand!"
Davis said nothing. Instead, he silently activated his martial spirit.
Four soul rings appeared: yellow, yellow, purple, black—the last clearly a 10,000-year ring.
He didn't need to explain. The facts spoke louder than words.
Dugu Bo looked at the black ring, opened his mouth... and said nothing.
> "Alright," he finally muttered. "But a gold-type, tiger-type, 10,000+ year-old soul beast...
That's not easy to find."
> "As far as I know, the only gold-type tiger beast is the King Kong Tiger.
But very few ever make it past 10,000 years."
He looked meaningfully at Davis.
> "I'm sure you know why."
Indeed. To obtain the White Tiger Vajra Transformation, members of the Dai family had long hunted King Kong Tigers.
The moment one showed up, it was targeted. So very few lived long enough to reach 10,000 years of age.
Davis's expression darkened. It was a history he preferred not to think about.
Instead of searching blindly, he took out the Fragrant Qiluo Immortal Product and placed it on the ground.
The Star Dou Forest was vast. Searching for the right soul beast was like finding a needle in a haystack.
He decided to do what Tang San had done—use the powerful fragrance of the Fragrant Qiluo Immortal Product to attract soul beasts.
As one of the top-grade immortal herbs, its scent was incredibly alluring to soul beasts—perfect for luring out what he needed.
