Spirit Gold contained an immense amount of life force.
It was useful not only to Electrolux, but to Lin Xiao as well. Spirit Gold could provide life force and even open up a Sea of Consciousness.
Back then, Huo Yuhao had opened up a second Sea of Consciousness with Electrolux's help.
One could well imagine just how valuable a piece of Spirit Gold was.
At this stage, it was also the most practical of the Heavenly Materials and Earthly Treasures for Lin Xiao.
He wondered whether it would be of much use to Old Medicine.
After all, Old Medicine stood at a much higher level.
Electrolux was puzzled. "You actually don't know about Spirit Gold?"
"I'm not from your world. Why would I know about Spirit Gold?"
"Is this treasure that powerful?"
Old Medicine was also quite puzzled. Although this remnant soul before him had been weaker than him in life, he certainly knew a great deal.
"For now, it would be immensely useful."
"I don't know whether it would help you, but it would be extremely useful to me and that little fellow outside."
Electrolux did not know how powerful Old Medicine had been in life, so he could not be sure whether Spirit Gold would benefit him.
What he did know, however, was that it would benefit both himself and Lin Xiao.
Old Medicine did not particularly mind. He also knew that this world's power system did not reach very high, so it would most likely be of little use to him.
"No matter. If we can obtain some, that would be fine. But does the Douluo Continent have any?"
Old Medicine had raised the crucial question: was there any Spirit Gold on the Douluo Continent?
Both Electrolux and Old Medicine had come from other worlds.
It was only natural that they would not know whether the Douluo Continent had Spirit Gold.
They did not know, but Lin Xiao did.
Not only did Douluo have it, there was quite a lot of it.
But Lin Xiao could not simply say so outright.
"Teacher, Senior, whatever the case, at least we have some hope."
"We can ask the Auspicious Beast when the time comes. Soul Beasts have plenty of Heavenly Materials and Earthly Treasures, so they might know. If they have any, we can arrange a trade."
Lin Xiao spoke softly. With the answer in hand, inventing the steps to reach it could not have been easier. All he had to do was point them toward the Soul Beasts.
After all, they really did have it.
"For now, that's all we can do. Little fellow, cooperating with the Soul Beasts back then looks like a masterstroke now."
Old Medicine smiled faintly. Fortunately, he had not attacked them outright back then.
Lin Xiao nodded. He had originally intended to fleece the other side a little, so benefits like these were within his expectations.
Now that Elder Yi and Old Medicine had both awakened, it was time to venture into that place.
A bold plan surfaced in Lin Xiao's mind: snatch the Ice Empress before anyone else could.
Back then, the Snow Empress had become a Soul Spirit with Electrolux's help. Now that Electrolux had awakened, could the concept of Soul Spirits be far off?
Besides, he now had two heavyweights who played with souls at his side. One had once been a god, and the other might even have surpassed gods.
Creating a Soul Spirit should not be difficult for those two, right?
With such resources at his disposal, he naturally had to aim higher when laying his foundation.
After the three chatted a little longer, Lin Xiao left and headed toward the Far North, following the plan in his mind.
At present, the Extreme North lay along the northern frontier of the Heaven Dou Empire. A land of ice and snow, it was bitterly cold and counted among the forbidden zones.
Fortune was found amid danger; the fiercer the wind and waves, the more valuable the fish.
Rather than let Tang San's side reap the benefits in the end, he might as well take them himself.
The Heaven Dou Empire's capital: Heaven Dou City.
After leaving the Star Dou Great Forest, Lin Xiao came here.
"Teacher, can my Flame Martial Soul keep me from fearing the cold?"
Lin Xiao directed his question at his ring.
If it were the Bone Spirit Cold Flame, he would not have needed to worry about the cold at all. But Lin Xiao's martial soul had only acquired a tiny trace of its essence.
"In extreme cold, you would still be in some danger as you are now."
Old Medicine spoke slowly, immediately dashing Lin Xiao's hopes of heading straight to the Far North.
He would still have to buy something to keep himself warm.
With that thought, Lin Xiao arrived at an auction house in the Heaven Dou Empire. Right now, he was short of money and could not buy anything even if he wanted to.
Under Old Medicine's guidance, Lin Xiao had found plenty of medicinal herbs in the Star Dou Great Forest. He could sell some of them; every little bit he earned would help.
"Sir, is there anything I can help you with?"
A young female attendant greeted him warmly.
"I'd like to sell some medicinal herbs. Do you buy them here?" Lin Xiao asked calmly.
"Yes. Please wait a moment, sir. I'll find someone to appraise them."
With that, the attendant led Lin Xiao into a lounge, then went to find an appraiser.
"Little fellow, there are some fine things here."
Old Medicine's voice rang out in Lin Xiao's mind.
Immediately afterward, Electrolux's voice followed. "Say, Yao Chen, what kind of teacher teaches his disciple to rob people?"
Old Medicine: "..."
Lin Xiao hurriedly smoothed things over. "Senior, Teacher didn't tell me to steal anything. Even if he did, I couldn't manage it right now."
"Heh, little fellow, with your master here, you can go ahead and rob them without fear."
"Once I've recovered, the three of us can rob them together."
Electrolux spoke with a laugh.
Old Medicine: "???"
So you won't let me teach him because you want to teach him yourself?
"All right, all right. Once you've both recovered, we'll pull off a big one."
Lin Xiao smiled faintly. What fun was there in robbing the Heaven Dou Empire? If they were going to rob anyone, they should rob Shrek. Shrek had far more good things than the Heaven Dou Empire.
That Golden Ancient Tree, for instance, was a fine treasure.
He had heard that God King Tang San's mother was inside it, though he did not know whether that was true.
Just as the three finished speaking, the attendant walked in with an old man.
"You're the one who wants to sell medicinal herbs?" The old man looked Lin Xiao over.
That glance gave him quite a fright. What a powerful physique! Although his level was not high, it was still astonishing.
He was much stronger than ordinary people.
"Yes."
As he spoke, Lin Xiao took out some of the medicinal herbs he had gathered recently.
The old man's eyes lit up. Fine things-all of them were fine things! Although they were not particularly old, they were still very useful.
"Young friend, I will buy these, but before I do, could you tell this old man something?"
"Is your martial soul a Body Martial Soul?"
The old man studied Lin Xiao with great interest. If things truly were as he suspected, he absolutely had to get this boy into the Body Sect.
Lin Xiao paused, surprised by the question. "Senior, are you from the Body Sect?"
The old man nodded. "I'm a disciple of the Body Sect. It's only because I've grown old that I came to serve as a steward at this auction house."
As he spoke, the old man revealed his martial soul: a palm.
Looking at the man's martial soul, Lin Xiao found nothing unusual about it. This Body Martial Soul could not be called particularly powerful, but neither was it weak.
Most likely, the old man's talent was limited, leaving him little chance of accomplishing much in his lifetime, which was why he had come here.
After all, the Body Sect could be considered the Heaven Dou Empire's guardian sect. Its disciples were quite commonly seen within the empire.
Even if he said nothing now, any Body Sect disciples or elders he encountered later would still easily recognize his martial soul as a Body Martial Soul.
Lin Xiao thought it over, then finally nodded. "It is indeed a Body Martial Soul."
Hearing this, the old man burst into laughter. "Good, good, good! Young friend, how would you like to join our Body Sect?"
"If you join our Body Sect, how about I buy these medicinal herbs for twice the price?"
