"Electrolux, I want to work with you, become your disciple, and learn your magic."
Zhong Kui did this so he could learn the magic of Shengmo Continent, Electrolux's homeland. Electrolux possessed both Necromancy and Light Magic.
Of course, he would not take advantage of Electrolux for nothing. After all, he knew a little about Electrolux's personality: he loved fiercely and hated fiercely.
He was genuinely good to those he considered his own. For instance, when it came to Huo Yuhao, Electrolux regarded Huo Yuhao as his own disciple. Whenever help was needed, he was truly willing to lend a hand, and in the end, he even died while helping Huo Yuhao.
Unfortunately, Electrolux never saw Huo Yuhao's true nature for what it was. As Dai Mubai's descendant, what kind of person could he have been? There was no need to ask. What kind of upbringing had he received? Was there even any need to ask?
Put plainly, he was someone steeped in feudalistic thinking, utterly lacking the character to repay those who had shown him kindness.
It could be said that meeting Huo Yuhao was Electrolux's greatest misfortune. A man so good to his own people and so good to his disciple ultimately died while helping that very disciple.
As an enemy, Electrolux was a terrifying existence. In the Tang Clan universe of Douluo Continent, Electrolux ranked among the notable powerhouses. Although Shengmo Continent and Douluo Continent seemed roughly comparable, the top experts of Shengmo Continent carried far greater weight.
Electrolux had not even become a god, yet he possessed Divine Sense, possessed overwhelming combat power, and could create Transcendent Divine Artifacts.
Moreover, Electrolux was not afraid even when facing the gods of Shengmo Continent who had transformed into laws themselves, much less these people who merely possessed higher cultivation realms.
The deities of the Douluo God Realm only had higher cultivation realms; they were not true gods, at least not by Zhong Kui's understanding.
"Learn magic? But during this time, I've come to understand your schedule. Every day, you have to study Soul Master knowledge and Soul Tool knowledge. You also have to teach students how to refine pills, while setting aside time to refine pills yourself and improve your Alchemist skills. Do you have time to learn magic?"
Electrolux voiced what he was curious about. He could also sense that Zhong Kui bore him no ill will; Zhong Kui simply needed his help, which was why he had taken him away from that young man, Huo Yuhao.
"I have my reasons. I want to learn the magic of your world so I can become stronger and better deal with the enemies I will face in the future. And I won't make you work for nothing. I have a treasure that will not disappoint you. It cannot revive you, but it can rapidly restore your soul."
Zhong Kui then took out a peculiar object that looked somewhat like a plant.
It was an emerald-green herbaceous plant. Its stems and leaves were crystal-clear, as though they had been meticulously carved from a piece of fine green jade.
The plant had seven-colored petals, with only a single flower blooming at its top. Its petals consisted of seven colors: red, orange, yellow, green, cyan, blue, and violet.
The flower shimmered with flowing light. When in bloom, it slowly rotated, its seven colors continuously shifting and changing, carrying a hazy, dreamlike air.
The flower emitted a faint, elegant fragrance. When one drew close, one could smell its subtle aroma, which had a calming and soothing effect.
"This looks like some kind of plant, but it also doesn't quite seem like one. Still, I can sense that it is an immensely nourishing medicine for restoring the soul. Where did you get it? What is this heavenly treasure called?"
"Seven Illusion Green Spirit Saliva!"
That was right. This was Seven Illusion Green Spirit Saliva, a potent medicine for restoring souls in the world of Battle Through the Heavens.
Seven Illusion Green Spirit Saliva came from the Cyan Seven-Colored Flower. Once refined into liquid, it could rapidly restore a weakened or dormant soul. In the early days, Xiao Yan endured humiliation and helped the Nalan Clan dispel poison in exchange for it. He used it to awaken the exhausted, dormant Yao Lao and help restore his soul to the Dou Zong level.
Although it did not restore Yao Lao's soul to its peak Dou Zun level, recovering to the Dou Zong level was already incredibly impressive. One had to know that in the Douluo Continent universe, the Dou Zong level was already equivalent to God King Level strength.
In Battle Through the Heavens, the souls of that world were formidable. A Spiritual Realm Soul at the level of an eighth-tier Alchemist could probably crush the souls of God Kings in Douluo Continent.
Therefore, if Electrolux absorbed Seven Illusion Green Spirit Saliva, he should be able to restore his spiritual power, perhaps even raise it to the level of a God King.
However, Zhong Kui could not determine whether Electrolux's spiritual power was already at God King Level. After all, he did not know. The original work's descriptions of Electrolux's spiritual power were not detailed enough. It only said that he was an extremely powerful existence, one who had even reached the level of a god, but it never specified whether he was at God King Level.
Zhong Kui had exchanged this Seven Illusion Green Spirit Saliva through the System Shop. Since he had long planned to obtain Electrolux's help, he had naturally prepared some good things. Still, this item was truly expensive.
As expected of something that could help Yao Lao recover to the Dou Zong realm. Its soul-related price was outrageously high.
Fortunately, Zhong Kui had made up for the loss by completing more tasks and earning more points, though it meant he had even less time to sleep and rest.
Still, he could understand why Xiao Yan had endured humiliation and gone to the Nalan Clan to treat and dispel the poison of the Nalan Clan's patriarch, the pillar of that untrustworthy clan.
After all, this thing was truly too precious. However, Xiao Yan's ability to endure humiliation and bear heavy burdens was also very important.
"This probably isn't something that exists in this world either. It should have come from Dou Qi Continent as well, right? It seems Dou Qi Continent is an even more terrifying world than I imagined. I can sense that if I absorb this, my soul power will undergo a tremendous breakthrough."
"If this can help you break through, then your soul has not reached the God King realm either, has it?"
"The God King realm, for the soul... Although I do not understand what kind of existence a God King is, judging from what you have said, it should be quite formidable. So what kind of existence is a God King in Dou Qi Continent?"
Electrolux was very curious. A God King should be this world's standard for powerful experts, so what level of powerhouse would that correspond to in Dou Qi Continent?
"In Dou Qi Continent, there are the realms of Dou Zhe, Dou Shi, Da Dou Shi, Dou Ling, Dou Wang, Dou Emperor, Dou Zong, Dou Zun, Dou Saint, and Dou Emperor.
A Dou Zong could already be considered a powerhouse, but before truly top-tier first-rate factions, one could only serve as a gatekeeper.
They could only become a top-tier power in the remote regions of Dou Qi Continent. A God King was roughly equivalent to a Dou Zong. That wasn't my own claim; it was something many people had analyzed."
