The moment the shop page opened, countless Soul Rings, Soul Bones, and rare treasures appeared before his eyes.
Soul Ring section.
Ten-Year Soul Ring: 10 Snow Hatred Value.
Hundred-Year Soul Ring: 100 Snow Hatred Value.
Thousand-Year Soul Ring: 1,000 Snow Hatred Value.
Ten Thousand Year Soul Ring: 10,000 Snow Hatred Value.
100,000-Year Soul Ring: 100,000 Snow Hatred Value.
And so on, all the way up through 200,000-year, 300,000-year, and Million-Year Soul Rings.
Soul Bone section.
The Snow Hatred Value required for Soul Bones from ten years to ten thousand years was exactly the same as that for Soul Rings of the same age.
The same went for Soul Bones from 100,000 years to a million years.
External Soul Bone: 100,000 Snow Hatred Value.
Once fused with a Soul Master, an External Soul Bone could continue to grow, and was worth as much as a 100,000-Year Soul Bone.
Rare Treasure section.
Aromatic Silk Beauty: 100,000 Snow Hatred Value.
Aromatic Silk Beauty: 100,000 Snow Hatred Value.
Singular Velvet Sky Chrysanthemum: 100,000 Snow Hatred Value.
There was also a list of other Immortal Herbs, all priced at 100,000 Snow Hatred Value.
Qin Chuan kept scrolling down the list until he reached the bottom.
The most expensive item cost a million Snow Hatred Value.
Qin Chuan's pupils contracted, and his breathing quickened.
[Resurrection of the Dead]: Bring a deceased person to the current time period (without affecting the timeline).
Value: 1.5 million Snow Hatred Value.
Bringing someone from the past to the current timeline—didn't that mean...
Qin Chuan took a deep breath, trying to steady himself.
Killing Dugu Bo had earned him only 30,000 Snow Hatred Value. Going by the system's rates, Dugu Bo was a Titled Douluo, but his Soul Power was only at level 91. If he reached level 95, he would qualify as a Super Douluo and be worth 50,000 Snow Hatred Value; a Level 99 Limit Douluo would be worth 100,000.
There was another way to earn Snow Hatred Value: exchanging items.
Qin Chuan plucked the Singular Velvet Sky Chrysanthemum before him. As it rested in his palm, he looked at it.
"Ding! Immortal Herb Singular Velvet Sky Chrysanthemum detected. Purchase price: 50,000 Snow Hatred Value. Recycle it?"
Qin Chuan's face darkened at the notification. "What a rip-off!"
Soul Rings and Soul Bones from Soul Beasts connected to Tang San or Shrek Academy could also be recycled this way if he hunted them.
Qin Chuan turned his attention to the two Immortal Herbs growing in the center of the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well.
"Mom, I want the two Immortal Herbs in the middle of the lake." Qin Chuan pointed to the center of the pool.
Bibi Dong immediately rose into the air. Three pairs of translucent purple wings unfurled behind her: the Six-Winged Purple Light Wings, her External Soul Bone, which had come from a Purple Wing Spider Emperor.
"Eighth Soul Skill, Spider Emperor Clone."
The Eighth Soul Ring beneath Bibi Dong's feet lit up. She split into two figures, each flying toward one of the Infernal Delicate Apricot and the Octagonal Mysterious Ice Grass.
Her hand transformed into a sickle and easily cut through the plants' roots. But just as she reached for them, a searing sensation struck. Bibi Dong narrowed her eyes, then used her powerful Soul Power to envelop each plant in her palm.
The two figures landed before Qin Chuan almost simultaneously, presenting him with the Infernal Delicate Apricot and the Octagonal Mysterious Ice Grass.
"Thanks, Mom."
Qin Chuan took them and quickly swallowed the Infernal Delicate Apricot and the Octagonal Mysterious Ice Grass.
"No need to thank me." Bibi Dong affectionately ruffled Qin Chuan's hair, then watched silently as he walked toward the pool at the center.
Bibi Dong knew her son was aware of what the future held. There was little she could do to interfere with his decisions; all she needed to do was give him whatever he needed.
After swallowing the Singular Velvet Sky Chrysanthemum, Qin Chuan headed for the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well. Along the way, he reopened the shop page and browsed the rare treasures until he spent 5,000 Snow Hatred Value on a piece of five-thousand-year-old Deep Sea Demonic Whale King whale rubber.
The whale rubber felt soft and spongy in his hand, its surface a dark gold. Qin Chuan swallowed it in one gulp, spread his arms, and plunged into the frigid pool and the scorching Yang Spring.
The commotion quickly caught the attention of the other four Titled Douluo. Even they wouldn't dare venture into those waters lightly, yet the moment Qin Chuan entered, he sent up a splash.
Qin Chuan was completely unharmed. He even stretched comfortably and slowly closed his eyes, absorbing the tempering of the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well.
Bibi Dong said, "Yue Guan, since you're familiar with the many Immortal Herbs here, strip this place bare. Whether you recognize them or not, don't leave a single one behind."
"Yes, Your Holiness the Pope!"
Yue Guan's eyes gleamed as he stared fixedly at the Lovesick Heartbreak Red. This flower was the king of flowers, the finest of all Immortal Herbs. He was nearly lost in its beauty.
In no time, the Immortal Herbs and other rare medicinal ingredients had all been packed away and placed in the storage pouch containing the Blue Silver Emperor.
Qin Chuan had snatched away Tang San and the Shrek Seven Devils' greatest advantage, crushing Dai Mubai, Ma Hongjun, and the others' hopes of ascending to godhood. Without the help of the Immortal Herbs, they were nothing more than ordinary people.
For now, Bibi Dong sat cross-legged, waiting for her son to complete his transformation.
As for Dugu Bo's corpse, Gui Mei had long since dragged it off to feed to the Soul Beasts.
After two days and nights on the road, Qian Renxue returned to Spirit Hall for the first time in years. Looking at the familiar Pope Hall, she took a deep breath and hurried toward it.
Before Pope Hall, Thousand Army Douluo saw Qian Renxue approaching and stepped forward to greet her. "Young Master, my elder brother said that as soon as you returned, you should go to Elder Hall."
"Mm. Lead the way." Qian Renxue nodded and followed Thousand Army Douluo toward Elder Hall. Along the way, she couldn't help asking, "What happened? Why did I have to abandon my mission in Heaven Dou City?"
"This is a grave matter. The events were strange and winding, but they concern Spirit Hall's fate. You'll understand when we get there."
Seeing that Thousand Army Douluo was unwilling to say more, Qian Renxue didn't press him.
Elder Hall.
Ten-year-old Ye Guyi only came up to Qian Daoliu's waist. She held his hand, gazing with curiosity at the enormous Angel Statue before her.
"Wow—"
"I never thought my ancestors had been so grand."
The area was rich in light elements, making it an ideal place for Ye Guyi to cultivate her Holy Angel Martial Soul.
Ye Guyi had gotten over the anxiety she'd felt when she first arrived in this world. She now understood that she had come to Douluo Continent ten thousand years in the past. This was Spirit Hall, the birthplace of her ancestors.
"Ancient Ancestor."
"Don't call me Ancient Ancestor. Just call me great-grandpa."
"Okay, great-grandpa." Ye Guyi lifted her little face and looked at Qian Daoliu's kindly smiling face. "Why are we here?"
"To awaken your Six-Winged Angel Martial Soul, of course. Our bloodline has passed down the Angel God's legacy. Though ten thousand years have gone by and the Six-Winged Angel Martial Soul has disappeared from your world, the potential to awaken it still lies deep in your blood. Today is the perfect time to awaken it."
As soon as Qian Daoliu finished speaking, footsteps sounded behind them. He and Ye Guyi turned around together.
"Ancient Ancestor! You're finally back!"
Qian Renxue: "???"
Before you continue
