Douluo Continent: Saving Zhang Lexuan at the Start

Chapter 96 Thunderous Hell Vine, A Piece of Cake Doesn't Kill

With the presence of many elders of the Body Sect, even though his martial soul was not his physical body, Ye Ying successfully became a disciple of Poison Undying.

What Ye Ying didn't expect was that after becoming an apprentice, Du Busi didn't teach him any of the Body Sect's secret techniques. Instead, he had Jin Lao bring him a bunch of medicine illustrations from Douluo Continent, as well as some medical books compiled by the Body Sect itself.

"Young Ye, don't look at me like that. Our Body Sect's cultivation involves the self, so disciples are required to have a certain understanding of the human body. Furthermore, the tempering of one's own martial soul usually requires the assistance of some medicines to increase the chance of the martial soul's second awakening."

Mr. Jin patiently explained things to Ye Ying, without any attempt to hide it from Zhang Lexuan, who was sitting next to Ye Ying.

This puzzled Ye Ying. "Elder Jin, but I don't have a true martial soul, do I still need to learn these things?"

Jin Lao said with a solemn expression, "Of course, don't forget that your second martial soul is a dragon. Although I don't know exactly what kind of dragon it is, based on the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon before the martial soul transformation, which even Soul Masters can't awaken, your second martial soul is definitely at the True Dragon level, and it's one of the top-tier True Dragons."

Hearing Jin Lao's confident words, Ye Ying thought to herself: What are real dragons? Even the little white dragon's piss is stronger than them.

Despite her rich inner world, Ye Ying didn't dare to talk back.

Firstly, the Ye family had a good relationship with the Body Sect, so they had to give face to their cheap master who couldn't be poisoned to death; secondly, Ye Ying didn't want to be beaten up, since Elder Jin was of the same generation as his great-grandfather Ye Luotian.

Fortunately, Ye Ying, having lived two lives, possessed a small talent in addition to her family background and system: a photographic memory.

You can remember some things after seeing them a few times.

After Elder Jin left, Ye Ying calmed down and studied the more basic things of the Body Sect.

Like Ye Ying, Zhang Lexuan also casually picked up a medical book and sat quietly beside him.

For a moment, both of them were focused on the books in their hands.

What surprised Ye Ying was that Zhang Lexuan's learning speed was not much slower than his, who was born with a photographic memory.

This made Ye Ying very envious. She really was a genius. If he had his sister Xuanxuan's learning ability in his previous life, he wouldn't have needed to go to a third-rate university.

Zhang Lexuan noticed Ye Ying's gaze, and a look of confusion appeared in her beautiful, watery eyes. "What's wrong, Brother Ying?"

"It's nothing, I'll just read and study!"

Half a month passed in the blink of an eye, and Ye Ying finished all the basic collections of the Body Sect half a day earlier than Zhang Lexuan.

After a systematic study, Ye Ying gained a clearer understanding of the relationship between Soul Masters and Martial Souls in Douluo Continent.

Martial spirits are not something humans are born with, but rather something that develops later in life for unknown reasons.

The core of a Soul Master's cultivation is Soul Power, while the Martial Soul is merely a bridge used by the human body to carry Soul Power.

After Ye Ying learned all this, Old Jin was somewhat incredulous, but after asking around, he realized that he was the clown.

Without a doubt, in Jin Lao's eyes, the coursework of an ordinary disciple of the Body Sect, which would take Ye Ying at least half a year even if he were a genius, would take him three years. But in reality, it only took him half a month.

What's even more absurd is that Zhang Lexuan, who had always obediently followed him, was the same.

Immediately, Elder Jin sighed, "I underestimated you. Since that's the case, then come with me and let me see the true strength of our Body Sect."

Leaving the pavilion where the inheritance was passed down, Ye Ying and Zhang Lexuan, led by Elder Jin, passed directly through the entire Body Sect's territory, which was surrounded by mountains, and arrived at a rugged mountain area with rumbling thunder.

This place is located at the westernmost edge of the Body Sect's territory, exactly opposite to the direction of the entrance through the narrow passage.

Don't be fooled by the fact that this place may not seem as easy to defend as the narrow pass; there's absolutely no way anyone could get in here.

The inner side of the mountain, within the Body Sect's territory, is quite rugged, while the outer side is an abyss of over 5,000 meters, so deep that even a Limit Douluo cannot fly up.

In addition, at the highest point of the mountain, there is a strange plant, which is the very foundation of the Body Sect that Elder Jin mentioned.

Countless bolts of lightning streaked across the sky, as if guided by something, all converging on the strange plant on the mountainside.

The plant, after being struck by lightning, withered for a while but quickly regained its vitality.

Upon seeing such a wondrous plant, the first thing that came to Ye Ying's mind was a magical herb.

He didn't slander the Tang Clan. The Tang Clan really does have immortal herbs, and it's a treasure trove of immortal herbs, they just don't know it themselves.

Surprised, Ye Ying, who was usually very knowledgeable, rarely encountered something he didn't recognize, so he immediately used his Eye of Detection.

Name: Thunderous Hell Vine Cultivation: Over 24,000 years Species: Plant-type Soul Beast Overview: A peculiar plant possessing a trace of lightning power in this world. It can enhance its cultivation by refining lightning. Due to its unique nature, it is difficult for it to live past 30,000 years before it dies under heavenly lightning.

"System detected a strange plant. Mission officially issued: Fourth Soul Ring – Use the Thunderous Hell Vine as your fourth Soul Ring. Reward: Thousand Refinement Technique!"

The system, which hadn't issued any tasks for who knows how long, suddenly came back to life, which almost startled Ye Ying.

Previously, in order to prevent his sister Xuanxuan from being corrupted by the faith on Seagod Island, Ye Ying specially used the reward soul power compression method that helped her become a fourth-level soul master to exchange for the purification crystal necklace that Zhang Lexuan treasured and always carried with her.

He originally thought that the system would give him the Soul Power Compression Method again when it issued another task, but he did not expect it to be the Thousand Refinement Method, which he had never heard of before.

Judging from the name, it should be related to soul tools, but he is only level 34 now, and it will take him at least a year and a half to reach level 40.

For a moment, Ye Ying felt a bit of a toothache.

Furthermore, the Thunderous Hell Vine is a treasure of the Body Sect, so it's quite difficult to use it as a spirit ring!

Just then, Elder Jin walked forward with a smile. "How was it, young Ye? That plant that attracts lightning is called the Thunderclap Hell Vine. It can naturally attract lightning and appeared here hundreds of years ago. It was developed into a cultivation ground by the sect leader at the time. Whenever someone gets close, the Thunderclap Hell Vine will attack, and the closer they get, the more frequently it attacks. The sect leader said that as long as you can get within fifty meters of the Thunderclap Hell Vine, you will have passed the test. Even if you cannot inherit the Seed of Inheritance, you can still borrow the secrets of the Body Sect."

Ye Ying gasped. He had to admire Du Bu Si for really drawing him a thick pie!

It must be said that the secret of the main body is indeed quite good, much better than his body tempering chapter, which could only be cultivated up to the title level.
