Although Dai Chengfeng had already guessed the other party's identity, upon receiving a positive answer at this moment, he still could not help feeling a thrill in his heart.
It really is Ye Lingling!
Now the immortal herb knowledge, which seemed most troublesome, can actually be resolved first. If I can also manage to bring Ye Renxin, that Medical Saint, back to the Star Luo Empire as a package deal...
For a moment, Dai Chengfeng's eyes were filled with burning fervor.
After all, as a transmigrator, Dai Chengfeng was acutely aware of the importance of doctors, even in this world of Soul Masters.
From the perspective of the original work, it seemed that Soul Masters were everywhere.
Yet upon truly arriving on the Douluo Continent, Dai Chengfeng clearly and intuitively realized that ordinary people were the majority of this world, while Soul Masters were as rare as phoenix feathers and unicorn horns.
Since Soul Masters were already as rare as phoenix feathers and unicorn horns, healing-type Soul Masters would be even fewer.
When ordinary people fell ill, they could only see doctors, completely lacking the money to hire healing-type Soul Masters.
The reason Ye Renxin was revered as the Medical Saint was not merely because of his Nine Heart Begonia Martial Soul and Soul Douluo cultivation, but also due to that formidable skill of taking pulses, dispensing medicine, and curing diseases.
These experiences held no great significance for an individual Soul Master striving to grow stronger...
Yet for the overall development of a nation, these experiences were truly priceless treasures!
However, despite his inner anticipation, Dai Chengfeng remained calm and composed.
He merely nodded faintly to Ye Lingling, who was expressing her gratitude to him, and that Heaven Dou Royal Academy teacher Bai Xue. "Since everything is fine now, we will be leaving first."
With that, he turned and left directly with Zhu Fan, showing no reluctance.
After all, this was the Star Dou Great Forest; excessive enthusiasm would only provoke suspicion.
Watching the already vanishing backs of Dai Chengfeng and Zhu Fan, Bai Xue let out a long breath of relief. "It seems those two just now really are good people, and simply wanted to help."
"I actually suspected earlier whether they might have had ulterior motives, especially since your martial soul is so special, Lingling..."
As she spoke, a flash of guilt crossed her eyes. "Sigh, I'll apologize next time."
Ye Lingling likewise watched the direction in which Dai Chengfeng had departed, bit her lips, and nodded emphatically.
"Mn!"
"Sorry—"
The moment they returned to their own camp, Zhu Fan could not wait to look at Dai Chengfeng and ask curiously, "Chengfeng, how did you know that little girl's martial soul was the Nine Heart Begonia?"
Hearing this, Dai Chengfeng replied, "I've always told you, Uncle, to read more books."
"The Nine Heart Begonia, the miracle among martial souls, its exterior is a pink begonia flower composed of white and pink petals... It's all clearly recorded in the books."
"And it's not just the appearance that matches."
"Clearly that young girl is only a Two-Ring Soul Grandmaster, yet the healing effect of her soul skill is so heaven-defying. Besides the Nine Heart Begonia, what other martial soul could it be?"
"Ehehe~"
Zhu Fan awkwardly scratched the back of his head and smiled with a guilty conscience. "Chengfeng, don't make it sound like I'm completely illiterate."
"Actually, I do read books, but they're all military treatises. Making me fight or go into battle to kill the enemy is definitely my forte."
"It's just this martial soul knowledge... Your uncle here gets sleepy just looking at it."
Saying this, Zhu Fan abruptly changed the subject. "Still, Chengfeng."
"Even if it is the Nine Heart Begonia Martial Soul, she isn't someone from our Star Luo Empire, yet you directly had me step in..."
With that, Zhu Fan wore a teasing smile. "You rascal, could it be that you've taken a fancy to that little girl?"
Dai Chengfeng cast an exasperated sideways glance at Zhu Fan, truly hating that iron could not be made into steel.
"Uncle, let's leave aside how old I even am for a moment. You are the Imperial Guard Commander of our Star Luo Empire!"
"It's precisely because people in our Star Luo Empire don't value talent that all the talent ends up going to Spirit Hall and the Heaven Dou Empire."
"Not to mention the powerhouses of Spirit Hall..."
"Just think about these top martial souls of the Heaven Dou Empire: the Clear Sky Hammer, the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon, the Seven Kill Sword, the Nine Heart Begonia, the Ice Phoenix..."
"And then look back at our Star Luo Empire..."
"I can't even be bothered to say it!" Dai Chengfeng sighed helplessly for a moment. "If they were all in my Star Luo Empire, why would we need to fear Spirit Hall back then?"
Looking at Dai Chengfeng, a flash of surprise crossed Zhu Fan's eyes, immediately followed by solemn respect. "Chengfeng, it was your uncle whose perspective was too narrow!"
"You are truly worthy of being the future Star Luo Emperor, and also the most suitable Star Luo Emperor!"
"Uncle believes in you!"
"In your hands, the future Star Luo Empire will definitely flourish and completely surpass Spirit Hall!"
Dai Chengfeng said nothing more.
After eating dinner, Dai Chengfeng stood up directly and walked back to his tent.
Inside the tent, Dai Chengfeng sat cross-legged on the cushion, once again taking up the two books, Great Sumeru Hammer Records and Disorder Splitting Wind Hammer.
First, he looked at the Great Sumeru Hammer. "The soul skill of the Great Sumeru Hammer condenses all of one's power into a single entity, and then pours it entirely into the Clear Sky Sect's exclusive martial soul, the Clear Sky Hammer..."
"In this way, the user's own strength undergoes a geometric multiplication, granting the purest might and offensive power."
"Coupled with the Great Sumeru Hammer's ultimate mystery, Ring Detonation, it can also erupt in a short period with immense energy far surpassing the user's own soul power. It completely follows the route of brute force breaking through all techniques."
"Any soul skill or technique, unless backed by absolute soul power suppression, cannot contend against the sheer might and offensive power of the Great Sumeru Hammer."
Immediately afterward, Dai Chengfeng looked at the Disorder Splitting Wind Hammer. "As for the Disorder Splitting Wind Hammer, it teaches one how to gather all of one's strength into a single point and then unleash it in one go."
"From this perspective..."
"The two naturally share an inevitable connection."
"Only by first learning how to gather all strength into a single point can one more easily learn how to continuously maintain such a state during battle."
"No wonder when Tang Hao taught Tang San hammer techniques back then, he had to start with the Disorder Splitting Wind Hammer..."
Thinking of this, Dai Chengfeng took a deep breath. "Since skipping the Disorder Splitting Wind Hammer to directly study the Great Sumeru Hammer leaves me with no starting point for now..."
"It seems I should also change my mindset!"
"Instead of pursuing immediate perfection, I will create a soul skill with an extremely high potential ceiling, and using that as a base, push this soul skill to its peak step-by-step over time. That way..."
"A soul skill no less inferior to the Great Sumeru Hammer can be achieved!"
At this moment, Dai Chengfeng suddenly felt a sense of a single thought arising and boundless freedom blooming in his heart.
Ideas that he previously lacked any clues for regarding a self-created soul skill now came to him almost in an instant, giving Dai Chengfeng a concrete direction.
However, Dai Chengfeng still had one final detail yet to be determined.
After all, aside from soul skills like fist techniques that utilized the physical body for combat, when it came to self-created soul skills...
The vast majority always needed to take a certain weapon as their foundation.
"Then, which weapon should I use as my future weapon..."
Horses gallop across Qilian mountains and rivers shaking, troops rise and heaven and earth tremble in helplessness!
With almost no hesitation, Dai Chengfeng thought of the weapon most suited to himself, the king of all weapons, the commander of long weapons, the master of the battlefield—the spear!
White Tiger Overlord Spear!
