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

Chapter 60 Leisure Time in a Small Mountain Village

"You cherish these herbs! Judging from how much you've kept them a secret, you must really value them. Come on, take them out. I'm prepared for this," Mr. Fang said calmly.

Fang Tian looked at his father's calm demeanor and took out the herbs with peace of mind.

"This herb is called the Longevity Herb, second only to the Immortal Herb of Ten Thousand Years. As the name suggests, it's a longevity-extending herb, capable of extending lifespan by about twenty years. Plus, with your son constantly infusing you with vitality, I guarantee Dad will live to be a hundred years old with ease." Fang Tian began explaining the herb's effects to his father.

"There's even such a herb? You should keep this good stuff for yourself! Don't waste it on me." After hearing about the herb's effects, Mr. Fang's first thought was of his own son.

"Didn't I just say I'd already eaten? This was specially brought for you, Dad, so don't worry about eating it. I'll help you refine it after you eat it. Mom has already eaten, so if you don't eat it, you won't be able to stay with Mom in the future," Fang Tian persuaded.

"Alright, give it to me. I'll still be there for your mother until she's old." Mr. Fang gave himself a way out.

Fang Tian smiled and began to instruct his father on how to take the herbs, and then started to help him refine them.

After four hours, the absorption was finally complete. Fang Tian looked at his father and saw that he seemed to have become ten years younger, and he was genuinely happy. He then carefully examined his father again and found that his lifespan had increased by more than twenty years, just as he had expected.

Fang Tian used his life force to adjust his parents' bodies, repairing some of the hidden injuries caused by years of hard work.

"By the way, Xiao Tian, ​​your little brother is about to awaken his martial soul. Are you going to stay home for a while before leaving this time?" Fang's father asked.

"Don't worry, Dad. I'm here to wait for my little brother to awaken his martial soul. I also brought him some herbs so he can take them after he awakens his martial soul," Fang Tian assured him.

"Great!" Mr. Fang said excitedly.

Although Fang Tian would return home every year or two, he usually wouldn't stay for very long. This time, he was able to stay at home for a month, which naturally excited his father.

Not only was Mr. Fang excited, but Mrs. Fang was practically weeping with joy. Except for their younger brother, Fang Yi, who kept muttering to himself.

"My older brother, that devil who always styles my hair, is actually going to stay at home for a month! Will I go bald from all that hair-style stuffing?"

As Soul Masters, Fang Tian and Qiu Fengyan have much more sensitive hearing than ordinary people, so they naturally heard Fang Yi's mutterings.

"Pfft!" Qiu Fengyan burst out laughing.

"Fang Tian, ​​are you going to turn your little brother bald?" Qiu Fengyan teased with a smile.

"Hehe, I'll shave his head tomorrow and let him feel the power of Bald Qiang." Fang Tian was speechless.

"No, brother! I'll never talk about you again! Please don't shave my head!" Fang Yi quickly begged for mercy.

"Alright, silly boy, your older brother is just joking with you!" Mr. Fang said with a smile.

Fang Tian and Qiu Fengyan then settled down in Sweet Potato Village. Of course, cultivation could never be abandoned.

And so the two of them diligently cultivated themselves every day in the sweet potato village, and would also give Fang Yi some guidance in his cultivation.

Although Fang Yi did not awaken his martial soul, he did not slack off in various forms of cultivation.

Fang Tian naturally wouldn't hold back on his knowledge of his younger brother, and even obtained Qiu Fengyan's consent to teach Fang Yi the secret technique of bone forging.

However, Fang Yi's essence, energy, and spirit were all within the range of ordinary people, so Fang Tian's Meridian Kung Fu was not passed on in the end.

Fang Yi ultimately learned the Eight Pieces of Brocade. Like Fang Tian, ​​he began practicing it at the age of three.

However, Fang Yi had no interest in the Goose Feather Blade and only learned the Nine Palaces Step and Willow Leaf Flying Knife, following the path of the God-Slaying Flying Knife.

Fang Tian had no choice but to hope that he could break free from his constraints and forge a new path with the God-Slaying Flying Knife; otherwise, he might only ever reach the pinnacle of skill.

Of course, even if Fang Yi didn't learn the Goose Feather Blade, he still needed to learn the Soul Condensation and Bone Forging Techniques. However, since Fang Tian was often away from home and couldn't replenish his life force, the effects of practicing the Bone Forging Techniques were less than satisfactory.

However, since Fang Tian returned and replenished his energy every day, Fang Yi has also felt the thrill of his cultivation progress increasing rapidly.

Time flies like water. A month has passed in the blink of an eye.

This was the day Fang Yi awakened his martial soul. Just like when Fang Tian awakened his martial soul, Fang's parents got up early to prepare. Although Fang Tian didn't quite understand, he still accompanied them.

The one who came to Sweet Potato Village to awaken the children's martial spirits was naturally not Master Li Feng from back then. It was a young man in his twenties. I heard that Li Feng had been transferred to another place to become the head of a branch hall.

The master who received the awakened martial spirit of the Martial Spirit Branch Hall was still the old village chief from back then. Perhaps it was because the village had become more and more prosperous in recent years, and the old village chief was in high spirits when he had a happy event. More than ten years later, he was still in good health.

The soul power awakening didn't take long at all, ending in about twenty minutes. This time, two children with soul power were awakened. The old village chief laughed heartily, insisting on giving the master from the Spirit Hall a well-cooked rabbit, saying he should take it to eat on the road. This left the master who had awakened his spirit power both amused and exasperated.

One of the children who awakened their soul power this time was Fang Tian's younger brother, Fang Yi, whose martial soul was Sweet Potato. However, Fang Yi's talent wasn't very good; his innate soul power was only level two. Another child who had also practiced the Eight Pieces of Brocade had also awakened innate level two soul power.

It seems that the Eight Pieces of Brocade has very limited ability to increase innate soul power before it is mastered to a high level.

Only children with decent talent in practicing the Eight Pieces of Brocade can step into the threshold of becoming a Soul Master through the Eight Pieces of Brocade.

However, Mr. and Mrs. Fang were overjoyed that their second son had also awakened soul power. They never cared that his innate soul power was only level two; as long as he could become a soul master, that would be much better than their parents in the future!

After a period of excitement, everyone in the village went home.

Back home, Fang Tian took out his homemade soul power attribute detector and tested his younger brother's soul power attributes. This was extremely important; Fang Tian didn't want his younger brother to suffer the same fate as Yu Xiaogang in the original story, whose path was cut off due to an incorrect assessment of his soul power attributes.

The measured soul power attribute is earth. Fang Tian had already anticipated his younger brother's martial soul attribute. After all, their parents' martial souls were there, and Fang Yi's martial soul was a normal one; the awakened martial soul would likely be either earth or wood attribute.

Fang Tian took stock of the various immortal herbs he had left and finally chose the Earth Dragon Golden Melon for his little brother.

Three Earth Dragon Golden Melons were found in the Yin-Yang Well of Ice and Fire. As for only giving Dugu Bo one Earth Dragon Golden Melon, it was because they were afraid that Dugu Bo would think that the Earth Dragon Golden Melon was something that could be mass-produced, which would reduce the weight of the favor they had given him and be a loss.
