Douluo Continent has a system, but I don't want to use it.

Chapter 45 Consuming the Immortal Herb

Qiu Fengyan raised her hand and released her martial spirit.

From the outside, the goose feather knife is basically the same, except that it feels tougher and sharper.

The spirit rings that were originally attached to the martial spirit have now been inlaid on both sides of the blade, making it look much better.

"The appearance of my Martial Soul hasn't changed much, but I've now reached level sixty, and with the addition of Soul Rings, I'll be a Soul Emperor. Haha!" Qiu Fengyan laughed heartily.

"Now that you've digested it, come on, absorb this 'Waiting for Autumn Dew' as well. It's mainly used to enhance your spiritual power. After absorbing it, you'll have at least a level 70 Soul Saint's spiritual realm." Fang Tian smiled and handed another immortal herb to Qiu Fengyan.

"Aren't you going to take the immortal herb?" Qiu Fengyan asked in confusion.

"I'll absorb it later. The herb I chose might take a long time to absorb, so I'll absorb it after you're done."

Upon hearing Fang Tian's words, Qiu Fengyan sat down again and began to absorb the dew that seemed to see through autumn waters.

Fang Tian took this opportunity to thoroughly examine the immortal herbs in the Yin-Yang Well of Ice and Fire.

Eight-petaled fairy orchid, narcissus jade skin and bones, brocade tulip, fragrant brocade fairy product, cockscomb phoenix sunflower, snow-white swan kiss, starlight moon essence grass, earth dragon golden melon, black jade divine bamboo, unicorn blood jade ginseng, and love-sick heartbreak red. Extraordinary hibiscus reaching the sky chrysanthemum, yin-yang twin flower, yin-yang flower, longing autumn water dew, eight-cornered mysterious ice grass, and fiery apricot delicate vegetable. A total of seventeen kinds of fairy herbs.

Fang Tian began to consider how to allocate the immortal herbs. He would definitely keep the ones suitable for his own absorption for himself. Later, he would also need some immortal herbs to cultivate his disciples and subordinates; the immortal herbs could be used to cultivate disciples, and the slightly inferior herbs would be sufficient for cultivating subordinates.

Two hours later, Qiu Fengyan finished absorbing and refining the immortal herb. Fang Tian used the system to directly identify her and found that Qiu Fengyan's spiritual power had reached the Soul Douluo stage.

"Fengyan, I just suddenly thought of something. You should also be able to cultivate Purple Qi Spirit Nourishment now." Fang Tian suddenly had a flash of inspiration.

When I first met Qiu Fengyan, she had just started practicing the Eight Pieces of Brocade, so it was understandable that she couldn't cultivate the Purple Qi Essence.

Qiu Fengyan has now mastered the Eight Pieces of Brocade to its highest level. She is already capable of refining her spirit, so naturally she can also cultivate the Purple Qi Nourishing Spirit.

Even those who have mastered the Eight Pieces of Brocade to a high level could barely cultivate the Purple Qi Nourishing Spirit, but at the time, due to the inertia of their thinking, they never thought of this aspect.

"I can too? Let's try it tomorrow morning. But now it's your turn to take the immortal herb, let's begin." Qiu Fengyan nodded in agreement, then urged Fang Tian to absorb the immortal herb quickly.

"Alright then. But I'll let you know beforehand that the immortal herb I'm going to take is related to body refinement, and I need to enter the Yin-Yang Well of Ice and Fire. I might have to take off my clothes later, so don't accuse me of being a pervert."

"Understood, let's get started."

Fang Tian walked to the Yin-Yang Well of Ice and Fire, and used his jade knife and iron knife to pluck the Fiery Apricot and the Eight-Cornered Mystic Ice Grass respectively. The oppressive heat and cold made him feel very uncomfortable. Moreover, in a short while, the vines that were wrapped around the two immortal herbs began to die from the point of contact.

The vines that were entwining the Fiery Apricot Vegetable began to char and break, while the vines that were entwining the Eight-Cornered Ice Grass were covered with a layer of frost and slowly developed cracks, as if they would break at any moment.

Fang Tian quickly controlled his martial spirit to generate new vines that intertwined the two immortal herbs and placed them together. The moment the Fiery Apricot Delicate Vegetable and the Eight-Cornered Profound Ice Grass were placed together, the uncomfortable heat and cold aura vanished simultaneously.

Fang Tian waited a few seconds and saw that the Fiery Apricot and the Eight-Cornered Ice Grass had fused together, so he immediately picked them up and put them in his mouth. The two immortal herbs turned into liquid in his mouth and flowed down his throat into Fang Tian's stomach.

Fang Tian instantly felt a massive surge of energy erupt in his stomach, which then rapidly flowed throughout his body. He felt his body was alternating between hot and cold, and it felt as if it were about to burst.

Fang Tian quickly took off his clothes and plunged into the Yin-Yang Well of Ice and Fire.

The moment Fang Tian entered the Yin-Yang Well of Ice and Fire, he felt as if a balance had been achieved within his body. Two energies, one hot and one cold, began to temper him.

Pain, itching, tingling, numbness, and all sorts of other unpleasant sensations came from all over his body, which Fang Tian tried his best to endure.

At this moment, Fang Tian's Meridian Technique suddenly began to accelerate, constantly balancing his essence, energy, and spirit. Meanwhile, the medicinal power of the immortal herb was being refined at an accelerated pace, and the body-tempering effect was also increasing.

The two immortal herbs possessed immense medicinal power, and it took Fang Tian six hours to fully absorb and refine them.

"Pfft!" Fang Tian emerged naked from the Yin-Yang Well of Ice and Fire. The last of his clothes had been completely melted away by the Ice and Fire Spring Water.

Fang Tian looked around. Qiu Fengyan had already turned away, covering her face and laughing uncontrollably. Fang Tian sighed helplessly and quickly put on his clothes.

"Stop laughing, laughing too much will make you pregnant." Fang Tian retorted as Qiu Fengyan continued to laugh.

"Get lost! That's still much better than you bird-walking guy." Qiu Fengyan retorted immediately.

"Holy crap! When did you become so eloquent?" Fang Tian exclaimed in surprise.

"I just don't usually bother with you," Qiu Fengyan said, looking up.

"Alright, let's not talk about this anymore. I've finished absorbing the immortal herb, it's time to attach your sixth soul ring." Fang Tian quickly stopped the argument from continuing; you can't win an argument with a woman.

"Alright, but first tell me about the effects after you refined the immortal herb. When I refined the second immortal herb, I only felt an increase in my spiritual power, and nothing else." Qiu Fengyan didn't press the matter.

"I feel that my physique has improved significantly. I now have almost the physical qualities of a Title Douluo. My soul power and mental power have improved, but not significantly." Fang Tian briefly introduced his situation after absorbing the immortal herb.

"As for the second immortal herb you took, Fengyan, it was originally designed to enhance spiritual power. It has virtually no effect on improving physical constitution or soul power." Fang Tian then explained the effects of the "Looking Through Autumn Water Dew" to Qiu Fengyan.

"So that's how it is. Now let's go hunt some soul beasts." Qiu Fengyan said with a relieved smile, smiling at Fang Tiandao.

After leaving the Ice and Fire Yin-Yang Well, Fang Tian and Qiu Fengyan searched for three days in the Sunset Forest and finally found a suitable soul beast for Qiu Fengyan: a 40,000-year-old Iron-Armed Ape.

After absorbing the Iron-Armed Ape's spirit ring, he gained a spirit skill somewhat similar to gravity suppression—Force Suppression. Activating this skill suppresses the movement of enemies wherever the blade strikes.

It is already fast, and it also suppresses the enemy's mobility. With these two advantages combined, the enemy is just waiting to be attacked.
