"That old geezer's finally gone." Seeing Dugu Bo leave, Yue Guan broke into a smile.
"Uncle Yue, Senior Dugu has joined Spirit Hall now. You'll be comrades from now on, so you don't have to be so hostile toward him, do you?" Hearing Yue Guan mutter to himself, Lin Yu couldn't help finding it amusing.
Although Yue Guan was already a Titled Douluo, and Lin Yu knew he wasn't all that serious, he had never expected Yue Guan to have such a childish side.
"Heh, what do you know? That old geezer's been sitting on this treasure trove all this time, and he didn't even know how to make use of the precious herbs here. What a waste!
The more I look at him, the more I can't stand him." Yue Guan started grumbling about Dugu Bo.
"But even if Old Poison doesn't know how precious this place is, I do. So it's just as well he's left." After speaking, Yue Guan excitedly began introducing the Immortal Herbs to Lin Yu.
"See all these herbs? These are rare Immortal Herbs, seldom seen anywhere on the continent.
The Aromatic Silk Beauty is the bane of all poisons. It can neutralize every kind of toxin. It can't cure poison itself, but it can counteract it. Within the range of its fragrance, no poison can take effect. Its scent neutralizes all poisons, making it the best Immortal Herb for protection against poison.
The Octagonal Mysterious Ice Grass is an extremely rare Immortal Herb with a frigid poison. It chills the heart and numbs the central nervous system. Within ten meters, its cold is bone-deep; stay near it too long, and the cold poison will attack the heart, with no cure.
The Infernal Delicate Apricot is the exact opposite of the Octagonal Mysterious Ice Grass. It's an Immortal Herb with a highly potent fire poison.
This is the Singular Velvet Sky Chrysanthemum, a neutral Immortal Herb. Once eaten, its energy flows through the limbs and blood through the eight meridians, allowing one to cultivate an indestructible body. It has no fragrance.
The Star Luo Spirit Pearl absorbs the essence of the stars and moon each night, strengthening itself.
The Hunyuan Immortal Herb contains Hunyuan Qi. It's a treasure that can increase a Soul Master's Soul Power and also help them compress it." Yue Guan introduced the Immortal Herbs and premium medicinal herbs found at the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well one by one.
The more Yue Guan spoke, the more excited he became. By the end, he was practically waving his arms around, showing just how much he loved flowers.
After finishing his introductions for Lin Yu, Yue Guan approached the Lovesick Heartbreak Red, completely entranced.
"Uncle Yue, do you mean that if we take these Immortal Herbs, we'll gain benefits beyond our wildest expectations?" Lin Yu put on a suitably puzzled expression. After all, he needed to pretend he knew nothing about them.
It was impossible to know about the Immortal Herbs at the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well without a profound understanding of medicinal properties.
"That's right. But your Soul Power is still too low, so you don't need to take these herbs yet. Even without them, your Soul Power will increase incredibly fast at your current level.
"It's best to wait until you reach the Soul King level and feel your rate of improvement slow down before taking them.
"But..." Yue Guan glanced at Lin Yu with a smile, his expression clearly inviting Lin Yu to ask for an explanation and praise him.
Seeing Yue Guan's expression, Lin Yu dutifully asked, "But what?"
"But since I'm here, you don't need to worry about that. There are Immortal Herbs among these that can strengthen your foundation and vitality.
"So even though your Soul Power is only in the twenties, you can still take them." Yue Guan looked at Lin Yu smugly.
"Still, the effects of the Immortal Herbs are so powerful that with your current strength, you can only take one.
"Your Second Martial Soul is a flash of radiance. I don't know exactly what it is, but it belongs to the light element.
"This Aromatic Silk Beauty can absorb the essence of heaven and earth and the radiance of the sun and moon. It can strengthen your Second Martial Soul.
"This one is the Eight-Petal Immortal Orchid. Its medicinal properties are the gentlest and most concentrated, and it's easy to absorb. It can strengthen your foundation and expel impurities from your body.
"Since your strength is still low, taking these two Immortal Herbs will greatly increase your Soul Power. After you take them, your Soul Power should reach level thirty." Yue Guan selected two Immortal Herbs from among the many medicinal plants and showed them to Lin Yu.
Lin Yu accepted the Immortal Herbs Yue Guan handed him without refusing. Yue Guan was the expert here, while Lin Yu had only read about this stuff in the book Douluo Continent. Yue Guan's recommendations were naturally more suitable.
After crossing over, Lin Yu no longer saw this world as a fictional one. It was a real world to him.
So Lin Yu didn't use his own guesses to argue with Yue Guan.
"By the way, what's your Second Soul Ring?" Yue Guan suddenly asked while Lin Yu was still thinking.
After all, Lin Yu hadn't shown off his second Soul Skill since absorbing his Second Soul Ring.
"My second Soul Skill is called Eye of Instant Death. It's a control skill. Making eye contact leaves the opponent paralyzed. If their Soul Power is lower than mine, I can forcibly control them; if they're stronger than me, the effect is forcibly broken after three seconds.
"Why are you asking about my Soul Skill?" Lin Yu looked at Yue Guan in confusion, unsure why he had brought it up.
"Soul Skills are the abilities best suited to you, born when you obtain a Soul Ring. Some Soul Skills are special and evolve based on certain abilities you already have.
"Your second Soul Skill is related to your Soul Power and spiritual power, but the thing it's most directly connected to is your eyes." Yue Guan looked shocked after hearing Lin Yu describe his second Soul Skill.
"This Full Moon Wearing Autumn Dew can cultivate fiery golden eyes and see through all kinds of wondrous objects. It can greatly strengthen your eyes. After you take it, your second Soul Skill will become even more powerful." Yue Guan handed Lin Yu another Immortal Herb.
"Old Ghost, come over here. There's an Immortal Herb suitable for you, too." After choosing herbs for Lin Yu, Yue Guan called out to Gui Mei.
At Yue Guan's voice, a ghostly figure suddenly appeared beside Lin Yu. He was clearly excited, but did his best to keep it under control.
"The Ghost Shadow Soul Flower. Your Martial Soul is a ghostly shadow, so this herb can greatly strengthen it and might even cause your Martial Soul to evolve. Take it now, and I'll guard you." Yue Guan handed Gui Mei a medicinal plant that had a physical form but looked extremely ethereal.
"Old Chrysanthemum, I won't bother thanking you." Gui Mei eagerly accepted the herb from Yue Guan, barely containing his excitement.
Then, without hesitation, Gui Mei sat cross-legged and began absorbing the herb.
Seeing Gui Mei begin to absorb the medicinal power of the Immortal Herb, Yue Guan turned his attention back to Lin Yu.
"Well, Xiao Yu, have you decided which herb to absorb first?" Yue Guan looked at Lin Yu.
"I'll absorb the Eight-Petal Immortal Orchid first. Once I've absorbed it, my cultivation speed should increase, and then I'll be able to absorb the other Immortal Herbs sooner." Lin Yu finally made his decision.
