Chapter 13
: The Immortal Herb, and Dugu Bo's Heartbreaking Lament
As Dugu Yan and Dugu Bo listened to your increasingly outrageous descriptions, their initial excitement turned to disbelief. They believed that such a miraculous herb couldn't possibly exist, and given your somewhat dim-witted nature, the credibility of your claims was even lower.
However, although he was skeptical, Dugu Bo still took you to Sunset Forest to see if those so-called magical herbs really had such miraculous effects.
[As soon as you entered the herb garden, you headed straight for the Qiluo Tulips, but Dugu Bo immediately stopped you. He himself had almost died when he rashly approached these herbs in the past.]
After testing the Qiluo Tulip with white mice and confirming it posed no danger, Dugu Bo and Dugu Yan finally dared to let you approach this peculiarly shaped herb. Its roots and leaves resembled vines and curtains, but at the top was a golden tulip, exuding elegance and nobility, and constantly emitting a rich fragrance.
[You downed the Qiluo Tulip in one gulp right in front of them, and then the Seven Treasures Glazed Pagoda, shimmering with seven-colored light, floated silently before you, its three halos shimmering, set against a backdrop of rich golden light.]
[Your body radiates a dazzling, luxurious golden light, carrying the rich fragrance of tulips. Amidst the flowing light, your glassy eyes possess an ineffable nobility, like a pristine, innocent celestial being. Each intensification of the golden light makes your Seven Treasures Glazed Pagoda appear even more magnificent and dazzling.]
Finally, the transformation is over. Your soul power has increased by six levels, and the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda has evolved into the Nine Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda. Beneath it, a faint ring of golden light, like tulip petals, shines upon it.
[Dugu Yan and Dugu Bo, who were standing to the side, stared wide-eyed at your soul power enhancement and martial soul evolution process, followed by uncontrollable elation. Since what you said is true, then the value of this herb garden is immeasurable.]
After consuming the Qiluo Tulip, you felt something drawing you in. Following your gaze, you landed on another celestial herb—an eight-petaled orchid, entirely white and translucent, exuding an air of refined elegance.
[After taking it, the unique fragrance of the 'Eight-Petaled Immortal Orchid' appeared on your body again, and a faint white mist rose from your skin, swirling and undulating around your body.]
At this moment, you seem to be enveloped in a luminous glow, exuding an air of noble elegance.
White mist and golden light faintly intertwined in the air, and the two fragrances mingled together, creating an incredibly soothing and wonderful aroma.
[The *Tulipa 'Qiluo'* and the *Orchid 'Babanxian'* are a pair of celestial herbs, just as the *Ice Grass 'Bajiaoxuanbing'* and the *Apricot Blossom 'Liehuojiao'* complement each other.]
The medicinal effects of the Eight-Petaled Immortal Orchid mainly include strengthening the body's foundation, removing impurities, and increasing the cultivation speed of Soul Masters, thus compensating for the inherent weakness of food-type Soul Masters who cultivate slowly.
[Your soul power has increased by three levels again, reaching level thirty-nine. You feel this is not the limit, and as long as you acquire a soul ring, you should be able to increase it by two or three more levels.]
Seeing your breakthrough again, Dugu Bo and Dugu Yan were somewhat numb. After you absorbed the Eight-Petaled Immortal Orchid, Dugu Bo immediately asked you about the effects of the other immortal herbs and which ones Dugu Yan could use.
[You used your brain, thought for a moment, and said: Earth Dragon Golden Melon paired with Qirong Tongtian Chrysanthemum, the Azure Scale Serpent Martial Soul evolved to strengthen the body, making it indestructible.]
[Also, the Eight-Cornered Ice Grass can be taken together with the Fiery Apricot Blossom and tempered in the Yin-Yang Well of Ice and Fire, forging a body that is "impervious to water and fire, and resistant to all poisons." This can also solve the problem of the Dugu Yanbi Phosphorous Serpent Martial Soul poison.]
The last resort is the Fragrant Silk Fairy Elixir, which can counteract and neutralize the venom of the Azure Phosphorous Snake...
After hearing the three methods, Dugu Bo wept. The old, lonely Title Douluo was now in tears.
[Despite having such a medicinal garden and three different methods to cure the venom of the Jade Scale Snake, I couldn't save my son and daughter-in-law back then, and could only watch them die helplessly...]
