Narcissus jade muscle bone was not suitable for Zhu Zhuqing.
If she swallowed this immortal herb, it would only greatly increase her soul power level.
It would improve her talent only slightly.
To transform her talent completely, only the Lovesick Heartbreak Red would do!
This was a cursed flower. Not a single person who made it bloom had met a good end.
But Chu Sheng was not afraid. It was merely a flower's curse!
Chu Sheng took out the Lovesick Heartbreak Red. He did not use the so-called blood of the heart; he simply gave it a command.
"Bloom!"
It belonged to the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well, to Chu Sheng's independent Small World.
It could not refuse Chu Sheng's command!
With a single thought, the flower bloomed.
It resembled a peony, with crimson petals and golden stamens, exuding the majesty of the king of flowers.
"Eat it. From now on, you'll be a different Zhu Zhuqing."
Chu Sheng pointed at the Lovesick Heartbreak Red, his expression solemn.
It was indeed beautiful, so much so that one could hardly bear to destroy it.
But it was an immortal herb. It ought to contribute by improving someone else's strength!
Zhu Zhuqing glanced at Chu Sheng, then turned her gaze back to the Lovesick Heartbreak Red.
If I eat it, I can shed my old self and be reborn?
Words like Chu Sheng's were hard for a native of this world to believe.
But what sort of person was Zhu Zhuqing?
To grow stronger, she was willing to try!
Even if this flower was poison, she would taste it first.
At worst, she would lose the gamble!
Without hesitation, Zhu Zhuqing walked over to the Lovesick Heartbreak Red, plucked the flower, and elegantly chewed its petals.
Her movements were swift, yet unhurried.
Moments later, the Lovesick Heartbreak Red was in her stomach. Zhu Zhuqing sat cross-legged and began refining it.
Seeing this, Chu Sheng nodded and left the space, quietly waiting for the two women to transform.
The Star Dou Great Forest.
After a night of refining-and a detour to the gates of hell-Tang San successfully absorbed the two-thousand-year Man Faced Demon Spider's Soul Ring.
He had also successfully obtained the Eight Spider Lances.
Yet he felt that he was missing so much, so very much!
"Brother San, you finally woke up!"
Xiao Wu cried out in surprise, her tear-streaked face like pear blossoms in the rain.
She had returned long ago. Seeing Tang San in this state had filled her with guilt.
"Xiao Wu, Xiao Wu... as long as you're all right!"
At the sight of Xiao Wu, Tang San cast his tangled thoughts to the back of his mind.
He could think about what he had lost later.
Zhao Wuji nodded and said heartily,
"Hahaha! As long as everyone's all right! That's what matters!"
They had encountered the Titan Giant Ape and still escaped unscathed. That was enough for old Zhao to boast about for the rest of his life!
After chatting for a while, everyone headed out of the Star Dou Great Forest.
Throughout the journey, Tang San was weighed down by worries, especially after discovering many things in his Storage Soul Tool that he did not understand!
Tang San was cautious. He did not take them out to ask the others.
How did I kill the Man Faced Demon Spider?
Could I really kill a two-thousand-year Man Faced Demon Spider with just Blue Silver Grass and the Clear Sky Hammer martial soul?
Tang San sank into thought. This might have a great deal to do with what he had lost.
I'll return to the academy first. Once Teacher arrives, perhaps he can answer my questions.
After the Shrek party safely left the Star Dou Great Forest, Tang Hao, who had been watching from the shadows, hesitated no longer and raced toward Holy Soul Village.
Though the idea that something had happened to Ah Yin was only a guess, he still had to return and check!
A Titled Douluo traveling at full speed was indeed fast. It took Tang Hao only a little over half a day to race from the Star Dou Great Forest back to Holy Soul Village.
The cliff, the waterfall, the cave...
"Ah Yin, my Ah Yin!!"
At the sight inside the cave, Tang Hao spat out a mouthful of blood. His vision went black, and he fainted.
He was already gravely injured, so it was hardly surprising that a surge of anguish made him pass out.
A good while later,
Tang Hao groggily awoke, his face livid and his eyes as wide as bronze bells.
"Who? Who on earth was it?"
Ah Yin was gone, and the Soul Bone had vanished too!
If only Ah Yin had disappeared, he might have suspected a Soul Beast.
Ah Yin was a hundred-thousand-year Blue Silver Emperor. Even without her cultivation, she was still the Blue Silver Emperor.
To most Soul Beasts, she was an immensely nourishing tonic!
But the Soul Bone was also gone. This was definitely the work of a human!
"Damn it! Damn it all!"
"Taking the Soul Bone was one thing, but why take Ah Yin too?!"
Tang Hao burned with rage. He could not understand why the culprit had done this.
To an outsider, Ah Yin was merely a somewhat unusual stalk of Blue Silver Grass.
Even if someone saw her, they would at most think she was pretty.
They had already taken the Hundred Thousand Year Soul Bone. There was no reason to take a stalk of Blue Silver Grass!
"Little thief, don't let me catch you, or I'll grind your bones to dust and scatter your ashes!"
After saying this, Tang Hao began searching for traces of the "little thief."
The culprit had been here. They must have left some traces.
After investigating, Tang Hao reached a conclusion: the culprit was a strength-type Soul Master!
The cave had been destroyed to this extent through sheer brute force!
The culprit had not released any soul power. They had shattered the rock with physical strength alone and found the Soul Bone...
"A strength-type Soul Master?"
Tang Hao narrowed his eyes, gripped a piece of rock, and crushed it to powder.
He stayed no longer and began searching the surrounding area!
Having obtained a Hundred Thousand Year Soul Bone, how could the culprit not absorb it?
They could not have gone far!
A hotel in Nuoding City.
After successfully refining the aromatic silk beauty, Ning Rongrong discovered that her soul power level had actually soared to level thirty!
And her martial soul...
One, two, three, four... seven, eight, nine?
Nine tiers?
Her Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda actually had nine tiers?
"Nine tiers! It really has nine tiers!"
The Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect had a secret that was no secret.
Soul Masters with the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda could only cultivate to the Soul Saint realm at most. They could not break through to Soul Douluo.
It was not because they lacked talent, nor because they lacked resources to pile into their cultivation.
Rather, their martial soul limited them!
Each tier of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda corresponded to one Soul Ring. With seven tiers, they could absorb only seven Soul Rings!
"You wretch, what exactly did you give me to eat?"
Ning Rongrong gazed entranced at her martial soul and murmured.
The entire sect had been searching for an opportunity to advance the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda. Chu Sheng had given her a flower and solved the problem.
It was hard to imagine how wild her father and the elders would go when this news reached the sect!
"What, you've broken through and you're still unhappy?"
Seeing that Ning Rongrong had successfully absorbed the herb, Chu Sheng released her from the separate space.
Ning Rongrong did not answer his teasing. With her hands behind her back, she walked toward him with light steps and upturned lips.
Once she was close, she gave a little leap, threw herself at Chu Sheng, and hugged him.
"You wretch, do you know..."
"I know."
Before Ning Rongrong could finish, Chu Sheng nodded.
Ning Rongrong: "..."
This clueless man! Sooner or later, I'll have him under my heel!
Couldn't he cooperate a little and go through the motions?
Let me show off a bit, then tell him what's in my heart!
Ning Rongrong wrapped her arms around Chu Sheng's neck and said,
"Liar. What do you know?"
She refused to believe that Chu Sheng knew everything!
"You've broken through to level thirty, but your gains actually go beyond that."
"Once you obtain your third Soul Ring, your level will rise considerably further."
"Your martial soul has evolved into the Nine Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda."
"Am I right, young miss?"
The corners of Chu Sheng's mouth lifted. He extended a finger and flicked Ning Rongrong on the forehead.
It hurt, but Ning Rongrong did not let go. Instead, she stared straight at Chu Sheng.
"Then do you know just how important this is to me and to the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect?"
