Douluo: Starting from the Nine-Curved Vine Dragon

Chapter 26 Obtain the treasure
The members of the Min clan present in the living room were all elderly elders.

At this moment, they all had different expressions, but they all looked at Chief Baihe tacitly.

The younger generations in the clan also hid outside the door, eavesdropping on the conversation.

Although the gazes of the older generation of clan elders towards Chief Baihe were mixed with some doubt, questioning and confusion, they were mostly filled with trust and support.

Then, the younger generation of the tribesmen, especially those who had experienced the turmoil seven years ago, lost the respect they once had when they peeked at Bai He from outside the door.

It turned out that Chief Baihe had a very valuable treasure, but he would rather watch his people live in such poverty than sell the treasure for money.

Not going to the Spirit Hall to collect the soul master subsidy can be said to be refusing to accept the enemy's charity, but having the ability to allow the tribe members to live a better life but not being willing to give up the treasures is considered selfish in the eyes of the younger generation of the tribe members.

Among the younger generation, a little girl who was about five years old stood there in a daze, shaking her head after seeing the changed looks from the tribesmen around her.

"It's not like that, it's not like that, my grandpa is not like that, you are not allowed to look at my grandpa like that!"

However, all these objections died down before they even came out of my throat.

Bai He was so skilled in cultivation that he had already discovered the younger generations hiding outside the door through the perception of his spiritual power.

The piercing gazes from the younger generations made him dare not turn his head to look at them.

In the living room, the elders' eyes showed respect and support for his choice, but also mixed with a little expectation.

In Bai He's heart, there were two voices arguing endlessly.

At first, the two voices were equally powerful.

As time went on, one of the voices gradually gained the upper hand until it completely eliminated the other voice.

"Here, this is what you wanted."

Bai He's struggling expression returned to calm. He reached into his arms, took out a jade box from a soul guide that was hidden somewhere, and threw it towards Lin Rong.

The old butler took the jade box halfway through the journey using his soul power. After carefully examining it, he handed it to Lin Rong with both hands.

The jade box is about one foot and five inches long and half a foot wide. It is shiny and smooth all over, and is carved from the finest mutton-fat jade.

Lin Rong's perception also revealed the life energy of a ginseng that was over 5,000 years old.

And that life energy took the form of a five-clawed dragon, which must be the crystal blood dragon ginseng.

"Alas! You can give it to Tang San for free, but I have to coerce and bribe you to give it to you reluctantly."

Lin Rong took the jade box and kept muttering in his heart:

"Why are they all so filial to the Haotian Sect?"

When he put away the jade box, Bai He had also put away the gold card and started to drive the guests away.

"Duke Lin, the transaction has been completed. I will not see you off."

But Lin Rong sat still in his original position, with no intention of getting up and leaving. Instead, he took out a piece of paper and pen and said to Bai He:

"I heard that Patriarch Bai has a very good relationship with Patriarch Yang Wudi of the Po Yi Clan."

"I have another unwelcome request. I hope that Patriarch Bai can write a letter of introduction. I need Patriarch Yang's help with something."

Asking the old goat for help? Are you asking him to refine the crystal blood dragon ginseng into a pill?

Bai He was filled with resentment and resistance, and was about to refuse.

But as soon as he said this, he felt that it was not right to do so. Although the deal was already done, what if he rejected the request and the other party regretted it?
Although he could control the boy named Lin, the old butler with the cultivation level of Soul Douluo could also control the villagers in the village.

If he remembered correctly, that person's martial soul seemed to be of some kind of star type, and he was also a control-type soul douluo.

Once the two sides fall out, except for a few members of the clan who are Soul Saints or above, the rest of the clan will not be able to escape death.

No, that boy's life is not as valuable as the lives of his people. Besides, his precious granddaughter is still outside the door. He can't act on impulse.

So, Bai He took a deep breath, took the paper and pen, and wrote a letter of introduction according to Lin Rong's request.

Lin Rong didn't expect Bai He to be so straightforward. Bai He agreed before he even said what he had prepared.

Soon, the letter of introduction was written. After Lin Rong put the letter away, he stood up and said goodbye.

"Senior, you are really straightforward. It's time for dinner. I won't stay to disturb you guys. See you later."

After Lin Rong and the old housekeeper walked out of the village for a distance, a faint silver light flashed on their bodies, and the next moment two small stones appeared there.

At the same time, three miles away from here, Lin Rong and his companions appeared here. Not far away, the carriage and the driver had been waiting for a long time.

By absorbing the soul rings and soul bones produced by the same soul beast at the same time, the skills of both the soul rings and soul bones will be strengthened.

Lin Rong's second soul skill, Green Leaf Mark, has an additional space replacement effect after absorbing Kong Qingzhu's head soul bone.

Lin Rong can make two marked targets exchange their positions.

Just like before, he randomly picked two small stones here to mark as targets, and then added green leaf marks to himself and the old butler.

After that, as long as Lin Rong triggered the four marks at the same time and used the effect of space displacement, he and the old butler would exchange positions with the two marked pebbles.

The maximum distance of spatial displacement is the same as the maximum distance of Qingye Mark teleportation.

The initial maximum distance is one kilometer. For each additional soul ring, the maximum replacement distance increases by an additional kilometer.

Of course, although the ability of space replacement is strong, it also has disadvantages.

If the marked target forcibly resists at the moment of space replacement, and the resistance is stronger than Lin Rong, there is a chance that the replacement will fail.

The stronger the rebels are than Lin Rong, the higher the probability of replacement failure.

However, this shortcoming will gradually shrink or even disappear as Lin Rong's strength increases.

The four green leaf marks were triggered at the same time, and Lin Rong's soul power was instantly consumed by 40%.

Because the soul power consumed to trigger the Qingye Mark is a fixed one-tenth of the total soul power.

Therefore, even if Lin Rong cultivates to the level of Titled Douluo in the future, twelve Green Leaf Marks can exist at the same time.

Without using his martial soul's true body to reduce his soul power consumption, he could only replace ten targets at the same time.

This is also the disadvantage of most soul skills with fixed percentage consumption.

This type of soul skill is powerful in the early stages, but as it progresses, it becomes less effective, except for a few types that have growth potential or percentage-increasing effects.

It is true that fixed consumption is the key to both success and failure.

Fortunately, Lin Rong's second soul skill, Green Leaf Mark, is one of the few soul skills with a fixed percentage consumption that has growth potential.
