Listening to Luofan and Xue Qinghe's conversation, Snake Lance Douluo silently muttered to himself, Since when was becoming a Titled Douluo so easy?

Indeed, for ordinary people, becoming a Titled Douluo was a dream forever beyond their reach, wasn't it?

Yet here Xue Qinghe and Luofan were, casually discussing how all of Luofan's soul rings would be at the hundred-thousand-year level by the time he became a Titled Douluo!

Neither of them seemed to have considered the possibility that Luofan might never reach that level!

Still, considering Luofan's rate of growth and his heaven-defying talent...

Snake Lance Douluo felt that anyone else saying such things would surely be getting far too full of themselves!

But when it came to Luofan, it actually seemed perfectly reasonable.

Besides, Luofan had raised his soul ring to the ten-thousand-year level in just over a year.

Wouldn't that mean he could raise it to the hundred-thousand-year level in a dozen or so years?

By that calculation, his first soul ring would probably become a hundred thousand year soul ring before he turned twenty.

And his other soul rings probably wouldn't fall far behind, would they?

After all, although the soul rings Luofan acquired later would have less time to grow, they could start at ten thousand or even several tens of thousands of years!

In the days that followed, Luofan's life seemed to settle back into its usual peaceful routine!

His main focus was raising his soul power level.

Since Luofan's soul rings could automatically increase in age, Xue Qinghe also agreed that his cultivation should prioritize raising his soul power level!

Recently, however, Xue Qinghe noticed that Luofan seemed to have developed a keen interest in various immortal herbs!

Xue Qinghe specifically had someone search the Library at Spirit Hall's headquarters for a suitable Immortal Herb Handbook, then make a copy and send it to Luofan.

By the time Luofan received the handbook, more than a month had passed!

As expected of Spirit Hall, it contained records of an impressive variety of immortal herbs.

There were thirty-six immortal-grade herbs alone, including those that had appeared in the original story!

There were also seventy-two other varieties of top-grade medicinal plants and spiritual herbs!

The handbook detailed their appearances, growing habits, and effects!

After looking through it, Luofan found the records quite thorough, with no issues in the descriptions of their effects or other properties.

Then he glanced at the author's name, and his eyebrows rose slightly!

Well now, the author of this handbook was none other than Chrysanthemum Douluo Yue Guan!

As the owner of the immortal-grade plant martial soul, the singular velvet sky chrysanthemum, Yue Guan had known all about the immortal herbs Tang San and his companions obtained in the original story. It made perfect sense that he had written this handbook!

In Luofan's opinion, Yue Guan's singular velvet sky chrysanthemum truly ranked among the highest-quality plant martial souls on the entire Douluo Continent.

Many people even considered Yue Guan's martial soul the finest of all plant martial souls.

Even Tang San's Blue Silver Emperor might not measure up!

Thus, Luofan set aside half an hour of his free time every day to review the handbook. After some time, he finally memorized all one hundred and eight varieties of spiritual and immortal herbs!

At last, the opportunity he had been waiting for arrived.

Dugu Bo naturally accepted the invitation to Prince Xue Xing's birthday banquet, and even Crown Prince Xue Qinghe attended in person!

After confirming Dugu Bo's whereabouts for the day, Luofan left Heaven Dou City before nightfall and arrived outside the poisonous miasma in Sunset Forest!

Then he charged straight in!

Pain! Before long, Luofan felt as though his internal organs and every cell in his body had caught fire. Agony seared through him from the inside out.

Luofan knew perfectly well that the poison in the miasma had begun attacking his body!

But relying on the effect of his Immortal Body Golden Entry, he endured the excruciating pain and rushed deeper inside!

An ordinary person who ventured into this poisonous miasma would probably succumb to the poison and die within minutes!

But thanks to his Immortal Body, Luofan remained alive despite being poisoned, even as his face turned scarlet!

In gaming terms, it was like having a health-lock cheat enabled.

Once his health fell to a certain point, it stopped dropping. His health bar would never hit zero!

After forcing his way through the miasma for several minutes, Luofan successfully emerged on the other side thanks to his Immortal Body. The view suddenly opened up before him. He had finally reached the blessed land of the Douluo World—the Yin-Yang Hot Pot!

Well, the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well, one of the Douluo Continent's three great treasure troves and the place where the ancient Fire Dragon King and Ice Dragon King had fallen.

It really did look rather like a Yin-Yang Hot Pot.

Luofan looked around. This treasured land truly abounded with top-grade spiritual plants and immortal herbs. Of the one hundred and eight varieties recorded in Yue Guan's handbook...

He could actually see more than half of them here!

And naturally, all the immortal-grade treasures described in the original story were present, including the octagonal mysterious ice grass, aromatic silk beauty, and full moon wearing autumn dew!

Could I just swallow all these good things in one go? The thought sprang into Luofan's mind as he surveyed the abundance of top-grade spiritual plants and immortal herbs!

It would be just like Sun Wukong eating Taishang Laojun's pills. Who cared what kind they were? He could simply tip the gourd back and gulp them down!

Anyone else would surely be unable to withstand the power of so many immortal-grade plants and would explode!

But sorry, with his Immortal Body, he had nothing to fear!

As long as he swallowed them all and didn't die, his body would eventually digest all their medicinal power, wouldn't it?

It was like poison: however potent it might be, as long as it couldn't kill him, his body would eventually break it all down!

After surveying the area, Luofan first fixed his gaze on a small tree that reached his thigh.

This exceptional spiritual plant had never been mentioned in the original story, but he had read about it in the handbook. It was highly effective at neutralizing poison.

Luofan casually plucked a leaf and swallowed it!

While poisoned, Luofan had felt as though he were submerged in lava, his entire body burning from the inside out.

Swallowing that leaf, however, felt like eating an icy-cold treat. The cool sensation was wonderfully soothing!

Then its invisible medicinal power rapidly spread from his stomach. In just half an hour or so, most of the burning sensation inside him disappeared!

His scarlet complexion quickly returned to normal as well!

After neutralizing the poison, Luofan approached an immortal herb!

He was in no hurry to consume the infernal delicate apricot and octagonal mysterious ice grass that Tang San had used to temper his body in the original story!

The immortal herb before Luofan was recorded in the handbook.

In his eyes, it was every bit as valuable to him!
