"What!"

Feng Qingluan listened to his grandson, disbelief showing in his eyes. "Y-you mean these things could help me reach level 98?"

"Possibly." Feng Baiyu couldn't be sure how effective they would be for a level 97 Titled Douluo. "I just saw them in a book called the Compendium of Flora and Herbs in Spirit Hall's treasury. Even if they aren't quite that effective, there's still a good chance they'll help!"

"Immortal Herbs are best taken as early as possible. Their benefits to the body can last a very long time." Feng Baiyu continued, "If you find an Immortal Herb that suits you, its value might even surpass that of a Hundred Thousand Year Soul Bone!"

Feng Baiyu didn't overstate things, but even so, what he'd said was enough to leave Feng Qingluan incredulous.

After finishing his notes on the wind-attributed Immortal Herbs and top-grade medicinal plants, Feng Baiyu began writing down information about other Immortal Herbs.

When he reached the Singular Velvet Sky Chrysanthemum, Feng Qingluan couldn't help asking, "Isn't that Chrysanthemum Douluo's Martial Soul?"

"That's right!" Feng Baiyu nodded. "After consuming the Singular Velvet Sky Chrysanthemum, one's limbs and eight meridians are unblocked, allowing them to cultivate an indestructible body! If Chrysanthemum Douluo had taken one when he was young, he'd probably have reached level 97 or even 98 by now! And if he had a Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Ring, he might even have had a chance of reaching level 99!"

It wasn't that the Singular Velvet Sky Chrysanthemum was that powerful. It was simply an incredible match for Chrysanthemum Douluo!

For him, it was a case of one plus one being greater than two!

If the young Chrysanthemum Douluo had to choose between the Singular Velvet Sky Chrysanthemum and Ghost Douluo, he would probably have been more likely to choose the flower!

Feng Qingluan trusted his grandson and believed in the Phoenix God. But he couldn't bring himself to place complete faith in a book his grandson had supposedly found in Spirit Hall's treasury.

If such a miraculous thing really existed, Spirit Hall would surely have gathered them all up.

But the fact was, they hadn't found a single one!

Feng Baiyu had drawn so many Immortal Herbs and top-grade medicinal plants, but aside from the Singular Velvet Sky Chrysanthemum, Feng Qingluan had never seen any of them. How could he believe all those incredible effects described in the book?

Feng Baiyu understood that seeing was believing, and hearing was not. He hadn't expected his grandfather to believe him completely just yet.

But that was all right. After he completed the First Trial of the Phoenix God, he'd have his grandfather take him to the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well!

As for how he knew all this? He'd just pin it on the Phoenix God!

Before long, Feng Baiyu had finished drawing all the Immortal Herbs he'd just written down. He put them away in his Soul Tool, then asked, "Grandpa, these past two months out there must've been rough on you, huh?"

"Ah, what hardship could I have suffered?" Feng Qingluan laughed and waved a hand. "I just went out to sea with your Fifth Grandpa and killed a few Soul Beasts. I have to say, there are so many powerful Soul Beasts in the ocean!"

Feng Baiyu saw no sign of strain on his grandfather's face. On the contrary, he looked positively delighted. Feng Baiyu immediately knew his grandfather had made quite a haul this time.

He asked, "Grandpa, did you bring back a lot of Whale Rubber?"

"A lot? There was a whole mountain of it!" Feng Qingluan pulled out several boxes. "These five are Whale Rubber that's over five thousand years old, and these eight are Ten-Thousand-Year Whale Glue. And this last one is seventy thousand years old!"

Feng Qingluan took out all the Whale Rubber and proudly showed it off to his grandson.

On this trip, he and his fifth younger brother had encountered quite a few Sea Soul Beasts!

One of them was level 97 and the other level 96. Even weakened by the sea, the two powerful experts were no match for ordinary ten-thousand-year Sea Soul Beasts.

"We were lucky this time. Your Fifth Grandpa and I ran into a clan of Evil Spirit Orcas." Feng Qingluan looked smug as he described their battle.

Feng Baiyu listened closely, then studied the Whale Rubber before him, thinking for a moment.

Soon, he asked, "Grandpa, you're this happy, so besides the Whale Rubber, you must've gotten something else too, right?"

"Heh, I really can't hide anything from you." Feng Qingluan smiled at his grandson. "Take a guess. What else did we get?"

"The only thing that could make you this happy is something that boosts your strength!" Feng Baiyu studied his grandfather's expression. "If it were a Pure-Blooded Phoenix that could boost my strength, you'd have been eager to tell me already. Since you're taking your time, it must be a treasure that can boost your strength instead."

Feng Baiyu paused, then continued, "For someone at your level, the only thing that could still be called a treasure is a Spirit Bone!"

"Haha!" Feng Qingluan burst out laughing at his grandson's words. "That's my grandson, all right. You can tell from my expression alone that I've gotten another Spirit Bone!"

That was right. Feng Qingluan and the Fifth Consecrated Douluo had gotten Spirit Bones on their trip!

Not just one, but two!

On the way to Vast Sea City, they'd encountered a group of Wolf Bandits. As consecrated members of Spirit Hall, they'd wiped out those neither-human-nor-Soul-Beast creatures with a wave of their hands.

For some reason, though, the leader of the Wolf Bandits had even dropped a Spirit Bone for the Fifth Consecrated Douluo.

They were surprised that Wolf Bandits could drop Spirit Bones, but better to get one than none at all. Feng Qingluan had been envious, but he hadn't fought his fifth younger brother for it.

However, while the two of them were hunting whales and collecting Whale Rubber, he'd also gotten lucky and extracted a Spirit Bone from a Soul Beast.

It was a Right Arm Soul Bone, though, and Feng Qingluan already had one. The two of them had exchanged them without hesitation.

In the end, besides the Whale Rubber, Feng Qingluan had brought back a Bloodthirsty Berserk Hurricane Right Leg Bone, while Guangling Douluo had obtained an Evil Demon Orca Right Arm Bone.

"This Spirit Bone won't do much for me." Feng Qingluan took it out. "But who knows? Its value might be enough to trade for something good."

It was clear that Feng Qingluan didn't really want to absorb it. If he could, he'd rather trade it for something that would benefit his grandson.

"Grandpa, if you think its age is too low, then never mind." Feng Baiyu glanced at the Right Leg Soul Bone. "It comes with a Soul Bone Skill called Berserk Frenzy. When activated, it doubles your attack power, defense, and movement speed."

"But while it's active, you can't use any other Soul Skills! And it's only around twenty to thirty thousand years old, so it's nothing special." Feng Baiyu smiled. "Once I'm stronger, I'll get Grandpa a full set of Spirit Bones that are at least fifty thousand years old!"

"Heh, Spirit Bones aren't that easy to come by!" Feng Qingluan gave a helpless laugh at his grandson's words. "Your grandpa's already level 97, but I only have three Spirit Bones in all. One of them is only a thousand years old, too."

"Baiyu, not everyone's like you. You only killed one Soul Beast, and an External Soul Bone appeared!"
