Tang Qinghe nodded slightly. There are two kinds: one is using the beast-form spirit skill technique without performing spirit attachment, but instead projecting the spirit body out to fight. Just like this...
As he spoke, the White-Feathered Owl spirit ability triggered, and the two-hundred-year spirit essence landed on Tang Qinghe's lower body. The three spirit essences on his body suddenly flashed brightly, and he projected the already manifested milky-white, pitch-black rotating zhang-tiger spirit, but instead of attaching, he allowed it to transform into a grayish-white transparent old tiger that paced around the three of them for a few circles.
Finally, it transformed into a streak of light and returned into his body.
Tang Qinghe continued, The benefit of doing this is that you can stay behind your spirit beast to remotely control the spirit body for combat, and the disadvantage is that without spirit attachment, there is no direct boost to the spirit body itself, but it can be used to avoid the side effects of the Jade Phosphorus Snake spirit. However, the key is that your first spirit essence and spirit essence belong to the same category of spirit beast.
His first spirit essence was evolved from a hundred-year self-adapting spirit essence, so the tailored six-hundred-year spirit essence naturally suited him best, which was why he could use it.
Dugu Bo was stunned, glancing in front of him once more, then narrowed his eyes and said, Dugu Yan, you try...
Two yellow and one purple three spirit essences rose from beneath her feet, and Dugu Yan followed suit by projecting her Jade Phosphorus Snake spirit, beginning to clumsily copy Tang Qinghe's method of execution.
No matter how she manipulated it, however, the Jade Phosphorus Snake phantom behind her simply could not move at all.
Tang Qinghe smiled faintly, This technique naturally requires years of accumulated practice to master. I have some personal insights which I've written down for Dugu Yan to take and practice with, but it is best not to pass them outside. He had cultivated the Heavenly Grasp Script, which could perfectly mobilize the spirit power within his body, so wanting to perform spirit body separation combat was naturally easy, but it was not so easy for Dugu Yan, as it required a massive amount of control.
With that, he flicked his waist with a hand and retrieved a booklet from it.
Thank you, little brother. Dugu Yan happily accepted it and once more gazed at Tang Qinghe with eyes carrying a bit more emotion and sincerity.
[Ding, Dugu Yan favorability +10.]
System introduction: [Non-antagonist Dugu Yan— —. Spirit: Jade Phosphorus Snake. Spirit Power: Thirty-second rank. Favorability: 80 (grateful, curious).]
Speaking of which, this was the very first female whose favorability toward him had reached eighty.
Tang Qinghe smiled inwardly, then glanced at Dugu Bo.
[Antagonist Dugu Bo— —. Spirit: Jade Phosphorus Snake Emperor. Spirit Power: Ninety-first rank. Favorability: 80 (grateful).]
[Ding, antagonist Dugu Bo's favorability has reached 80, antagonist attribute has been lifted, and he can no longer be targeted by system tasks.]
It seems that as long as I thoroughly break Tang San's faction's ability to act, then it no longer fits the antagonist conditions... Not being called an antagonist means no longer being an antagonist, and even if there are emotional fluctuations, the current me still wouldn't dare provoke a titled Douluo. On the other hand, if Dugu Bo is used well as an ally, it is equivalent to shielding myself from being someone who has no backing and can be casually manipulated by others.
Tang Qinghe thought to himself.
Dugu Bo looked at his own granddaughter, then looked at Tang Qinghe, seemingly thinking of something. He gave a light cough and said, Little friend Tang, thank you for curing the old man's granddaughter's poison, but the old man never takes advantage of others in favors. So, what do you need? Just say it, and the old man will definitely get it for you.
Dugu Yan is my friend, so as a friend it is only proper to help each other. If you really feel uncomfortable about it, then please have my junior find a storage spirit tool that can hold living things as a reward instead. The junior has read about it and is quite interested in storage spirit tools that can hold living things.
Tang Qinghe intentionally did not mention the fairy herbs because he knew Dugu Bo would definitely come back to find him. Judging by that prescription, it was still impossible to completely remove the poison that had long penetrated deep into Dugu Bo's bone marrow.
An eruption was an issue sooner or later.
Just a living-thing storage spirit tool? It seems this kid isn't scheming for the fairy herbs... Dugu Bo's heart flashed with doubt, but on the surface he remained completely calm. He casually unclipped a storage pouch from his waist and handed it to the Tang Qinghe, Since that's the case, then this wishful hundred-treasure pouch is given to you, and Yan'er, let's head back.
Little brother Tang, goodbye. Sister will come find you to play when she has free time.
Ever since Tang Qinghe's lecture starting at the Notting Junior Academy, Dugu Yan had already known that Tang Qinghe was only nine years old, younger than her by a full seven years.
A nine-year-old twenty-third-rank Great Spirit Master was definitely a genius among geniuses.
Therefore, at this moment, toward the young boy who had detoxified her, resolved her spirit poison backlash, and possessed monstrous talent, Dugu Bo's granddaughter felt extraordinary favorability.
Tang Qinghe took the wishful hundred-treasure pouch, smiled and nodded, watching her walk far away.
Turning around to return to his place of cultivation, he began a day of arduous cultivation.
On the other side, just walking out of Notting Junior Academy, Dugu Bo suddenly stopped in his tracks, Yan'er, you go back first. Grandpa has matters to attend to and will come find you later.
That Heaven Dou Imperial Academy...
Hearing this, Dugu Yan still wanted to say something, but was interrupted by Dugu Bo.
No matter when that academy is fine, in short, you go home first. Meditating is fine, practicing beast-form spirit skill techniques is also fine, because Grandpa will come find you. Remember to wait for Grandpa to return.
After finishing these words, Dugu Bo vanished right from the spot.
Leaving Dugu Yan with a wave of dissatisfaction, yet entirely helpless, she had no choice but to return to the Dugu family residence.
Time quickly arrived at dusk. After a day of arduous cultivation, Tang Qinghe took a bath and changed into a clean robe. Just like usual, he prepared to head to the Great Soul Arena for soul-dueling.
Passing through an alley, the surrounding air suddenly turned cold, and Tang Qinghe's skin suddenly tightened, giving him goosebumps.
His spirit power had just broken through the twenty-third rank, and his Heavenly Grasp Script had already been cultivated to the third tier, reaching the point where he was impervious to the cold. How could he possibly feel cold, let alone in the midsummer heat?
Thus, he thought of something, the corners of his mouth curving up into a trace of an imperceptible smile. He tentatively asked, Is senior Dugu here?
As the words fell, green clothes, green armor, green hair, and green eyes—everything green—Dugu Bo walked out from the dark alley.
You knew the old man would come?
Dugu Bo's green pupils carried some scrutiny within them.
Tang Qinghe nodded slightly. Yes, I guessed it. I discovered that senior's granddaughter's poison didn't merely come from spirit attachment, because if it were just three layers of toxic clouds on her spirit essence, it wouldn't be enough to cause a life-threatening danger. Therefore, I guessed that the poison on her body likely originated from heredity. Upon seeing senior, I confirmed this further, only thinking that since senior didn't tell her, it must be because he didn't want to make her worry for you, so I didn't point it out on the spot.
Dugu Bo deeply looked at Tang Qinghe for a moment, letting out a breath. You little devil truly are very clever. Then you must have also seen that the poison on the old man's body is much deeper than Yan'er's—calling it poison into the bone marrow is not an exaggeration. Relying on forcing the poison into the spirit bones and that prescription of yours alone would probably be difficult to completely eradicate. So can you detoxify the old man?
