Ten Thousand Year Ginseng King

"Sixth Soul Skill - Golden Stamen Flowing Rosy Clouds!!!"

With a clear and beautiful voice, golden petals transformed into a shower of stars, shooting towards Dugu Bo, who was several feet away.

Dugu Bo's expression was solemn. With a thought, the Fifth Soul Ring beneath his feet shone brightly with black light.

"Fifth Soul Skill - Snake Python Heavenly Dipper Shield!!!"

The large, turquoise snake coiled around Dugu Bo immediately emitted a dazzling green light, which gathered in mid-air to form a huge shield resembling snake scales.

"Jingle bells—!!!"

Although it was Sixth Soul Skill versus Fifth Soul Skill, with the support of Dugu Bo's Soul Power, the two Ten-Thousand-Year Soul Skill, which were essentially the same, ultimately failed to defeat each other and both dissipated.

After a brief exchange, both Dugu Bo and the one who made the first move stopped in unison and looked at each other with serious expressions.

This was a Soul Master clad in light golden armor, possessing an extremely unique aura. His skin was as delicate as a baby's, and his voice was clear and melodious, almost like a woman's. Combined with his alluring appearance, if it weren't for the Adam's apple on his neck, no one would believe that he was actually a man.

Both of them had seven Soul Ring swirling around their feet, and both had the optimal configuration of two yellow, two purple, and three black rings.

In addition, during that brief clash of Soul Skill, the two indirectly sensed that the other's Martial Soul was on a similar level to their own, with no inherent advantage or disadvantage in terms of attributes or systems.

If this continues, it is very likely that both sides will suffer heavy losses.

Thinking of this, Dugu Bo suppressed the urge to unleash his Martial Soul Avatar and said in a deep voice, "First come, first served. I discovered this place first, so please leave."

As he spoke, he glanced at a barren wasteland dozens of meters away from the two of them.

In the center of that barren land, which was several feet in circumference, three small, bright green flowers were swaying in the wind.

"Damn it!" The golden-armored, alluring man, who had also glanced at the emerald green flower, gritted his teeth and looked at Dugu Bo with some resentment, thinking to himself, "If Old Ghost hadn't had something come up at the last minute, and we hadn't joined forces to use our Martial Soul Fusion Skill, how could this bastard be so arrogant!"

He was willing to fight the Soul Saint with the mutated "Jade Phosphorous Serpent" Martial Soul regardless of the consequences, but he was also worried that if they started fighting, the aftershocks of the battle would uncontrollably affect the three small green flowers dozens of meters away.

Finally, the golden-armored, alluring man glanced somewhat resentfully at the emerald figure in the center of the wasteland, then glared hatefully at Dugu Bo with his handsome phoenix eyes and said, "Consider yourself lucky today. Dare to leave your name?!"

Dugu Bo raised his head arrogantly and said indifferently, "Jade Phosphorous Serpent Emperor — Dugu Bo!"

Since absorbing the Soul Ring of "Demon Dragon Zixi", and understanding from Ling Yi's analysis that the inner core of the demon dragon was not suitable to be given to his son Dugu Xin, Dugu Bo had no choice but to swallow and refine it himself. As a result, the dragon bloodline contained in Dugu Bo's Martial Soul "Jade Phosphorous Serpent" was awakened.

Now, Dugu Bo's Martial Soul has evolved. Originally a triangular snake head, his head has evolved into a crown-shaped protrusion like dragon horns, which Dugu Bo named "Jade Phosphorous Serpent Emperor"!

"Dugu Bo, is it?" The golden-armored, alluring man narrowed his eyes, staring intently at Dugu Bo, and said in a low voice, "I'll remember that."

"My name is Yue Guan, I hope you'll remember me! Take good care of these three little ones!"

After uttering those words, the alluring man named Yue Guan abandoned his lingering affection for the three small, emerald-green flowers dozens of meters away and resolutely turned to leave.

Watching the moonlight fade into the distance, Dugu Bo looked utterly bewildered and muttered under his breath, "Crazy!"

Half an hour later, it was still this desolate wasteland, devoid of any vegetation.

With two whooshing sounds, two figures, one in gold and one in black, arrived swiftly and stopped in the middle of the wasteland.

"That's it?!"

The alluring man, Yue Guan, who had left earlier, looked at the crater at his feet, which was more than a meter long and wide and about a meter deep, and murmured with some disappointment.

"Chrysanthemum Guan, once it's gone, it's gone..."

Beside him, a middle-aged man with a gloomy face and black lines on his cheeks spoke up.

Before the tattooed man could finish speaking, Yue Guan immediately glared at him angrily, "You bastard, it's all your fault!"

"If you hadn't run so far, how could that fish-smelling guy have stolen those three ' Jade Phosphorous Seven Absolutes Flower '!"

The tattooed man gave Yue Guan a Gui Mei, calm look, and said in a hoarse voice, "I ran so far to track down the target. Is the mission more important, or your damn flower?"

"That's not a worthless flower!" Yue Guan, like a cat whose tail had been stepped on, immediately bristled and shouted in a sharp voice, "That's the rarest of poisonous flowers, the ' Jade Phosphorous Seven Absolutes Flower '!"

Despite Yue Guan's breach of defense, Gui Mei remained calm. "Oh."

Yue Guan protrusion (艹皿艹)!

This is infuriating!. JPG

Within the Sunset Forest, in the Fog Mountain.

Dugu Bo climbed the mountain as if walking on flat ground. With a light touch of his foot, he would rise vertically more than ten meters. It seemed slow but was actually fast, and he did it with ease and grace.

Passing through the misty white fog, Dugu Bo arrived at the top of the mountain. He took a step forward, and his whole body disappeared into the rocky ground of the mountaintop as if he had fallen into the water.

The wind whistled past his ears Dugu Bo's body plummeted rapidly. Several seconds later, he shook his robes, which unfurled and provided some resistance in mid-air, immediately slowing his descent.

With a flick of his right sleeve, he once again drew power from the void, shifting his body sideways and traversing a distance of seven or eight meters before landing on a vine-covered walkway clinging to the mountainside.

Standing on the flexible boardwalk, Dugu Bo turned slightly to the side and looked down. Two bright colors, one red and one white, came into view.

"The Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well!"

After a few more rises and falls, Dugu Bo arrived at the bottom of the valley located in the belly of the mountain, his feet firmly planted on solid ground.

"Senior, you're here~"

Among a grove of green-leaved, red-fruited plants growing close to the cliff face, Ling Yi raised his head and greeted Dugu Bo, who had just arrived.

As Dugu Bo walked toward Ling Yi, his eyes, slightly tinged with green, swept over him. At Ling Yi's feet, rows of lush green Abundant Vitality, their jade-like leaves adorned with tiny, bright red fruits that made one's mouth water.

"You're really something, kid!"

A smile appeared on Dugu Bo's previously cold and stern face as he looked at Ling Yi with genuine admiration and praise, saying, "Who would have thought that you actually managed to cultivate these ' Ginseng King '!"

"Ginseng King", also known as "Ten Thousand Year Ginseng King", is graded by quality, with each ten thousand years being considered a grade one.

Within this "Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well," there is a first-grade "Ten Thousand Year Ginseng King. "Ling Yi harvested the ginseng fruit atop this "Ten Thousand Year First Grade Ginseng King" and processed it into ginseng seeds for cultivation.

Ling Yi, who established a "forest ginseng" planting base many years ago, is extremely familiar with this process.

Under Ling Yi's careful cultivation, the survival rate of the germinated "Ginseng King" seeds is as high as 98%. There are hundreds of "Ginseng King" seedlings growing vigorously under this cliff.

Although it has only grown for less than a year in this "Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well", its medicinal effects have already surpassed those of ordinary century-old ginseng outside.

"Hehe, if that old bastard Yang Wudi saw this, he'd probably kneel down before you..."

Halfway through his sentence, Dugu Bo stopped, shook his head, and said, "No, seeing how easily you interacted and chatted with them, I almost forgot that none of those guys are easy to deal with."

More likely, they'll kill you to steal your treasure, or imprison you and use you to cultivate various precious medicines for them.

Still writing, will try to post the next chapter before midnight.
