Chapter 72 Deducting a Celestial Herb
"This is—the legendary king of immortal herbs, the Qiluo Tulip?! And the Qirong Tongtian Chrysanthemum—the eight-petaled fairy orchid?!"
Ning Tian gasped, covered his mouth in disbelief, and stared wide-eyed.
As the young master of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School, she was very familiar with these immortal herbs and knew the importance of these three things better than anyone else, especially the Qiluo Tulip that made Ning Rongrong, the Nine-Colored Goddess, a generation.
"This name sounds so familiar—it's the immortal herb that the original Shrek Seven Devils consumed!" Xiao Xiao gasped.
She didn't know him at first, but after Ning Tianyi introduced him, she instantly recalled stories she had heard since childhood.
"And you—you've condensed the essence of the Red Dragon Heartfire?" Even the usually silent Wu Feng couldn't help but speak up, his eyes fixed intently on the cluster of flames in Lin Feng's left hand, his voice filled with surprise.
As the owner of the Red Dragon Martial Soul, she knew all too well how difficult this step was.
"Hmm." Lin Feng nodded and handed over the three immortal herbs in his right hand. "The 100,000-year-old Qiluo Tulip is for Ning Tian. This 50,000-year-old Qirong Tongtian Chrysanthemum, and the seed of my Red Dragon Heart Flame Origin, are for Wu Feng. Xiao Xiao, your soul power is the lowest right now, so this 50,000-year-old Eight-Petal Immortal Orchid is more suitable for you."
"This...this is too precious! How can we accept it—" Ning Tian's voice trembled as she looked at the immortal herb so close to her. This gift weighed heavily on her heart.
"Take it. I might need the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School's help in the future, so consider this an advance payment." Lin Feng's tone was calm, yet carried an unyielding air. He turned to Xiao Xiao beside him and added, "As for our lovely Xiao Xiao, your Three Lives Soul-Suppressing Cauldron is quite good. I might need your help with alchemy in the future."
"Y-yes." Xiao Xiao was a little embarrassed by his compliment of "cute," and the tips of her ears turned red instantly. She quickly nodded in agreement.
Seeing this, Ning Tian took Wu Feng's hand and smiled at Lin Feng: "Then—we shall respectfully accept your offer. The Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School will remember this favor."
Having said that, the three of them no longer refused, accepted the immortal herb, and each sat down to absorb it.
The medicinal power of the Qiluo tulip was gentle yet potent, and it quickly entered Ning Tian's body.
The illusory image of the Seven Treasures Glazed Pagoda behind her suddenly shone brightly, and the pagoda grew taller and taller as the light flowed, finally settling steadily at the ninth floor!
After ten thousand years, the Nine-Jeweled Glazed Pagoda has reappeared in the world!
The pagoda floated silently, its newly added three stories shimmering with light, gently enveloped in a rich golden halo. This golden light emanated from Ning Tian herself, carrying the unique, elegant fragrance of tulips, making her appear as if she were bathed in a sacred glow, like a fairy descending to earth.
Each time the golden light shifted, it made the Nine-Jeweled Glazed Pagoda even more dazzling.
On the other side, Wu Feng also succeeded. Her skin glowed with a pale golden light, the initial form of her indestructible body. At the same time, she also successfully condensed the primordial true fire.
Ning Tian and Wu Feng's soul power levels also both rose to level 40.
As the refreshing fragrance of flowers wafted from Xiao Xiao's mouth and nose, she succeeded.
Xiao Xiao's soul power also surged simultaneously, reaching level 30.
She estimated that she had accumulated enough soul power to reach level 37, and that she only needed to acquire a high-limit soul ring to reach level 40.
The three felt the renewed and immense power within their bodies, their eyes filled with shock and ecstasy.
"Lin Feng, thank you—you have saved me and the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School. No matter what conditions you bring, I am willing." Ning Tian said with slightly warm eyes, almost explicitly proposing marriage.
She stepped forward, tiptoed, and quickly kissed Lin Feng on the cheek before blushing and backing away.
Wu Feng watched, pursed her lips, and stepped forward. She looked up at Lin Feng and said softly but clearly, "Thank you, Lin Feng."
As soon as she finished speaking, she quickly tilted her head back and planted a light kiss on his other cheek. Then, as if startled, she immediately retreated to Ning Tian's side, lowered her head, and even the tips of her ears turned bright red.
When it came to Xiao Xiao, she was just as shy as Wu Feng.
After saying goodbye to the three, Lin Feng turned and went to the dormitory area of the Foreign Languages Department. He arrived at Wang Dong's dormitory door and gently knocked on it.
"Wang Dong, are you there? I'm coming in." He pushed open the door and saw that Wang Dong had already gotten up and was sitting on the edge of the bed. Although his face was still a little pale, his eyes were much clearer than before, and it seemed that he was slowly emerging from the shadow of the accident.
"Lin Feng?" Wang Dong looked up.
"Well, I brought you something, no—a gift." Lin Feng walked up to him, flipped his wrist, and two kinds of herbs appeared in his palm.
One was a pale golden ginseng that was beginning to take on a human shape. The other was quite peculiar, with a golden fruit resting on a black branch. Upon closer inspection, the gold was actually formed from countless starlight rays, shimmering and dazzling.
"What is this?!" Wang Dong was drawn to the strange light.
"A ginseng king that's ten thousand years old." Lin Feng handed the items closer so he could see them clearly, "and a Star Luo Spirit Pearl that's ninety thousand years old."
Especially this spirit pearl, it's gentle and approachable. When it fuses with a human soul master, it can become your soul core in the future, helping you advance to the title of Title Douluo.
He paused, looking into Wang Dong's eyes: "Most importantly, it can enhance your understanding of the power of the stars, and the essence of the power of the stars is the power of light. These two are good for nourishing your body."
"Offering favors for no reason—" Wang Dong muttered under his breath, looking at the shimmering Starry Spirit Pearl in his hand.
"Stop talking nonsense and take it." Lin Feng shoved the item into his hand and laughed, "This is an investment. I'll use it to ask your ultimate Douluo father for a favor later."
"Hmph, I'll remember this favor." Wang Dong still wouldn't let it go.
She didn't say anything more, took a deep breath, and began to guide her soul power to absorb the two generous gifts.
The process went smoothly. The gentle and mellow energy of the Star Luo Spirit Pearl flowed like a gentle stream, nourishing her meridians and soul power.
When she opened her eyes again, there seemed to be tiny starlight flowing in the depths of her beautiful eyes, clear and bright.
And his soul power has reached level 40!
"It's getting late," Lin Feng said casually, glancing at the darkening sky outside the window. "May I sleep here tonight?"
Ever since the incident involving the absorption of the Bright Phoenix Flame, Wang Dong's secret of disguising herself as a man was exposed to Lin Feng, and in a fit of anger, she kicked Lin Feng out of the dormitory.
Wang Dong was looking down, sensing the new soul power within his body. Upon hearing this, he looked up and glanced at him, a barely perceptible smile playing on his lips: "————For the sake of the immortal herb, alright."
During Lin Feng's absence from the academy, Wang Dong, who lived alone in the dormitory, had long since gotten used to shedding that troublesome disguise. The restrictive men's clothing was really uncomfortable to wear, so as soon as she returned to her own little world, she naturally changed back into the light and comfortable women's clothing.
At this moment, she was wearing a light-colored loungewear dress, the soft fabric draping naturally and subtly outlining the gentle curves of her body. Whether it was because she was relaxed or for some other reason, she made no attempt to conceal it.
Her shoulder-length hair was still damp from her shower, with a few strands casually clinging to her fair neck. Beneath her dress, the curves of her figure were clearly visible, her slender waist and long, straight legs revealing a budding youthful vitality in the warm yellow light of the room.
Wang Dong inherited the nobility and beauty of the Goddess of Light Butterfly, and even with short hair, his exquisite handsomeness could not be concealed. Now, dressed in women's clothing, he exuded a gentle beauty that was different from his usual dashing demeanor, giving him an almost otherworldly beauty.
Lin Feng felt his throat was dry, and a surge of heat rose up uncontrollably.
He quickly looked away and coughed, "I'm going to take a shower now—"
