The Rescue Plan, Breaking Through to Soul King!

"You take people away, they're in charge of the blockade; don't temporarily transfer people to do other things for you."

"As long as Ma Xiaotao can stay, I have no objection."

Jing Hongchen then stood up.

He was not tall, and his obese body even made him look somewhat comical, but once he stood up straight, he had a certain weight to him.

"Send me updates on the escort team's movements. If a second Titled Douluo appears, notify me immediately."

Feng Ling didn't say anything more, turned around and went out the door. Her footsteps faded away in the corridor.

The door closed again. Jing Hongchen stood behind the desk, glanced down at the clear palm print on the table, rubbed his Palm, and turned to walk towards the communication array in the inner room.

There were some risks, but he had to take them for the sake of those two children.

"Go and retrieve the personnel roster for the western part of the empire." He paused. "Also, deliver a confidential report to the palace on my behalf."

A voice came from the other end. "Master, what is it?"

Jing Hongchen looked at the map on the table.

"Immortal Herb has been discovered in Sunset Forest. Shrek and Star Luo Empire have arrived."

I believe there are people who are even more anxious than I am.

Heaven Dou City, the Official Road was deserted.

The Body Sect settled in an inconspicuous courtyard, where half a cart of medicinal herbs was piled up and a few lamps swayed in the wind.

Lang Ya pushed open the door to the main room and brought a man dressed as a herb gatherer to Du Busi. The man's hands were tied behind his back, and his sleeves were torn open, revealing a Star Luo Empire communication token hidden inside, which landed on the table with a soft thud.

Du Busi sat in the main seat, holding a cup of tea, and only glanced at the token.

"Xu Jiawei's men?"

The man forced himself to speak:

"I am carrying out your orders, senior..."

Du Busi raised his hand to interrupt him.

"I ask you, what is Xu Jiawei doing in Heaven Dou City?"

Lang Ya, standing nearby, said, "Sect Master, this person has been guarding the outer edge of Sunset Forest, interacting with the servants Star Luo Empire left in the city. Just now, upon seeing us approach, he even dropped his medicine basket."

The man's face turned pale; he knew he couldn't hide it any longer and could only answer:

"His Majesty came seeking medicine, and White Tiger Duke accompanied him. They have already gone into the mountains with Yan Shaozhe."

Du Busi sat up straight.

"What medicine could possibly warrant the emperor's personal visit?"

"The Immortal Herb' is said to be Herb Garden left over from ten thousand years ago."

"I truly do not know the specifics; I am only ordered to remain on the perimeter to provide support and report back regularly."

Du Busi asked again about the direction of the Entrance and the time of entry into the mountain, confirming that the person had indeed not entered the Herb Garden before waving to Lang Ya.

Lang Ya took the people away to keep watch.

Only Du Busi and Yu Tao remained in the main room.

After hesitating for a while, Yu Tao finally spoke, "Sect Master, Star Luo Empire and Shrek are already together. Should we go over there now...?"

Du Busi glanced at him. "Do you think Xuan Zi would be willing to bring out the good stuff just because Xu Jiawei came in person?"

Yu Tao was taken aback and didn't respond.

Du Busi didn't look at him again, her gaze returning to the cup of tea on the table. The tea had gone cold.

He was thinking of Long Aotian.

That child's talent is the greatest of this generation in the Body Sect.

Unfortunately, he was defeated by Wan Zhanghan's mental attack earlier, leaving a wound in his heart. If he could obtain a suitable Immortal Herb to make up for the deficiency in his spirit and strengthen his foundation, he would have a better chance of breaking through to the limit in the future.

If the Body Sect could produce another Ultimate Douluo in the next generation, why would they be so constrained even when buying a few Soul Tool?

"Last time we didn't get the Embryo, but we ended up giving away a batch as compensation." Du Busi put down his teacup and stood up.

"If we wait inside again, the medicine will end up in someone else's stomach!"

Lang Ya had just turned back when he clasped his hands in a fist salute. "Your subordinate will arrange the manpower immediately."

"You and Yu Tao come with me. The rest of you stay outside to provide backup." Du Busi strode out the door, his robes billowing in the wind.

"I want to see for myself what kind of Immortal Herb it is that even the Star Luo Emperor can't sit still!"

Quiet room at the inn in Heaven Dou City.

The medicinal power of the Singular Velvet Sky Chrysanthemum gradually seeped into his body, and his original Soul Power once increased, but eventually stopped at level 50.

Gu Mingyuan opened his eyes and clenched his hands.

"Level 50."

He activated his Golden Jade Body, feeling the Soul Power flowing through his limbs. His muscles were firmer than before, and he felt an inexhaustible energy throughout his body.

He chuckled, imagining Tang San reaching out for the Immortal Herb.

No wonder they were in such a hurry for me to hand it over.

He slowly withdrew his Martial Soul. A faint golden light suddenly swept across his chest and back, and several golden patterns lit up for a moment before disappearing back into his skin.

Gu Mingyuan paused slightly, then circulated his Soul Power again, but Jin Hui did not reappear.

Electrolux observed for a moment. "Refine the remaining medicinal power first, don't rush to force it."

Gu Mingyuan nodded, and at that moment the Communication Soul Tool lit up.

Feng Ling's voice came through. "Still in Heaven Dou City?"

"Exist."

"Do not leave the city in the coming days. Someone will bring you to the rendezvous point later. Once you arrive, wait there. I will inform you of any further instructions regarding your needs."

"Understood." Gu Mingyuan paused.

"Vice Cult Master, there's one more thing."

My Soul Power has just broken through level fifty.

There was a moment of silence on the other end of the line: "Level 50? So fast?"

"The Holy Cult has devoted itself to nurturing me, so I naturally dare not slacken in my cultivation."

Feng Ling listened, feeling somewhat pleased. As the Holy Son, his cultivation speed had repeatedly exceeded her expectations, proving that the resources she had previously spent had not been wasted.

"Don't try to find your fifth Soul Ring yourself yet." She softened her voice.

"Once this matter is settled, I will personally take you hunting. You must carefully select the species and age."

"Thank you, Vice Cult Master."

"Focus on consolidating your cultivation level these days; there's no need to relentlessly pursue speed..."

Gu Mingyuan agreed, ended the call, and stretched his shoulders.

With his Soul Power reaching level fifty, he had also secured his fifth Soul Ring. While waiting for news, he took the opportunity to familiarize himself with the changes in his body.

Sunset Forest.

Yan Shaozhe activated his Soul Power shield, leading Xu Jiawei, Dai Hao, and their accompanying retainers through the last layer of Poison Miasma.

Suddenly, a wide-open space appeared before us, with two-colored springs and vast medicinal herb gardens coming into view.

Xu Jiawei paused for a moment.

Dai Hao subconsciously glanced around. The poisonous gas along the way was already alarming enough, but there was such a place hidden in the forest.

Abundant energy, shrouded in mist.

It truly has a secluded, idyllic feel to it.

Xu Jiawei's gaze swept over the plants in the Herb Garden that possessed exceptionally strong auras, and a surge of excitement welled up within him.

He eventually calmed down a bit and turned his gaze back to Yan Shaozhe.

So this is what Dean Yan meant by "no surplus"?

Yan Shaozhe's face stiffened slightly, and he replied:

"Your Majesty has long resided in the inner palace; whether medicinal herbs can be harvested and whether their medicinal properties are suitable cannot be judged solely by their appearance."

Xu Jiawei didn't argue with him, and looked straight at the person walking towards the spring.

Xuan Zi was also surprised that Xu Jiawei would come in person, and his gaze lingered on Dai Hao and the retainer for a moment.

He and Yan Shaozhe exchanged a glance, as if confirming something.

"Your Majesty Star Luo Empire arrived quickly." He tugged at the corner of his mouth, his words devoid of any warmth.
