Zhu Zhuqing and Ling Qianyue exchanged a glance before she said, "Of course. We're classmates. If you need help with anything, just say the word. We'll do our best."
"Uh..."
Dugu Yan cleared her throat softly and continued, "It's like this. Because of the Earth Dragon Golden Gourd, my Martial Soul evolved.
Before this, I didn't actually know that my Jade Phosphorous Serpent Martial Soul had a hereditary toxin problem. I thought my jade-green pupils and nails were simply physical changes brought about by awakening a Martial Soul, like other Soul Masters.
Grandfather explained everything to me, so I was wondering... Qianyao, do you know a lot about the properties and uses of immortal herbs?
Ling Ling's Martial Soul doesn't cause bodily corrosion like our Jade Phosphorous Serpent Martial Soul, but its inheritance has a curse-like condition.
Although the Nine Heart Begonia is hailed as a miracle among Martial Souls, it can only be passed down through a single line. At any given time, only two Nine Heart Begonia Soul Masters can exist. Only after one dies can another appear among their descendants.
We want to know whether there is an immortal herb that can resolve the inheritance problem with Ling Ling's Martial Soul."
Hearing this, Ling Qianyue fell silent for a moment.
It was not as though he had never considered the matter. However, as the Douluo Continent's most powerful healing-type Martial Soul, the Nine Heart Begonia's ultimate healing ability was likely the very reason it carried a bloodline curse.
It was much like Martial Souls with ultimate attributes. Before reaching Soul Sage, because ultimate attributes placed extremely high demands on the body, the Martial Soul would consume large amounts of Soul Power gained through cultivation while gradually improving the Soul Master's physique, causing cultivation speed to slow considerably.
