Douluo Phoenix

Chapter 33 Immortal Herb

After obtaining the soul bone, Huo Wu returned to the group. Xiao Fei sensed a change in Huo Wu's demeanor. Just as everyone was about to say something, Xiao Fei quickly said, "We can talk about it when we get back. Let's put the soul bone away first." The others nodded hastily, as they could feel the greedy gazes around them.

Pope Bibi Dong said, "The All-Continent Elite Soul Master Tournament is over. Men, seize that girl." The Pope's gaze fell on Xiao Wu.

Yu Xiaogang quickly asked, "What do you want to do?"

Ning Fengzhi also chimed in, "Shouldn't we investigate thoroughly before making any decisions?"

The Pope was unyielding, saying, "Sect Leader Ning, please have some self-respect. If you continue to obstruct us, then the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School will become an enemy of the Spirit Hall."

Ning Fengzhi shook his head and stepped aside.

"Wait a minute!" Yu Xiaogang produced the Pope's decree and said, "I am also one of the elders of the Spirit Hall, and I have the right to know the truth. Your Majesty, you can arrest people, but you must first make things clear. On what grounds are you arresting my Shrek Academy disciple?"

The Pope said coldly, "What do you know? If she were just an ordinary girl, of course we wouldn't arrest her, but she's a 100,000-year-old transformed soul beast. The Spirit Hall has the responsibility and obligation to capture her and prevent her from harming humanity."

"How is this possible?" Yu Xiaogang exclaimed in shock. Everyone at Shrek Academy was horrified, except for Tang San, who remained calm.

Dai Mubai asked Tang San, "Little San, what's going on?"

Tang San said calmly, "Brother Dai, Xiao Wu is not human; she is a 100,000-year-old soul beast in human form."

Tang San walked up to Xiao Wu and said, "Whether she is human or a soul beast, anyone who wants to harm her will have to step over my dead body."

As the captain of Shrek Academy, Dai Mubai's experience and leadership skills far surpassed those of the others. He said earnestly, "Whether Xiao Wu is human or a soul beast, she is now our teammate. The Seven Devils are one, advancing and retreating together." The others echoed in unison, "The Seven Devils are one, advancing and retreating together."

Flander suddenly laughed, exchanged a glance with Liu Erlong and the master, and the Golden Iron Triangle simultaneously raised their right hands. In an instant, brilliant golden light rose from the sky, the surging light instantly outlining an incomparably dazzling golden triangle in the air. "We old folks aren't dead yet, it's not your turn to stand in front of us."

The Pope looked at Yu Xiaogang in a daze, and Chrysanthemum Douluo softly called out, "Your Holiness the Pope."

The Pope immediately came to his senses and shouted, "Seize them! Anyone who obstructs will be killed without mercy!"

Seeing that a great battle was about to break out, Xiao Fei quickly pulled Huo Wu and Huo Wushuang, leading all his teammates to the Xue Qing River. Where in the Spirit Hall could be safer than beside the Xue Qing River?

A fierce battle ensued, and the golden trio formed a colossal, sacred dragon, leaving Xiao Fei in awe. Meanwhile, Chrysanthemum Demon Douluo unleashed his Martial Soul True Form.

On the Heaven Dou Empire's side, both Dugu Bo and Sword Douluo felt a surge of urge to act. Xiao Fei couldn't help but wonder, "Without the immortal herbs in Ice and Fire Eyes, could the two really have become such close friends despite their age difference? Could Tang San really have helped Dugu Bo detoxify?"

The Pope snorted coldly, revealing two yellow, two purple, four black, and one red spirit ring. The red spirit ring, in particular, exerted immense pressure on everyone present. Even the Sword Douluo next to Ning Fengzhi was surprised.

Suddenly, a red light flashed between the Pope and Tang San. A gigantic hammer appeared within the light. A figure appeared in the sky, and the hammer suddenly flew back into that figure's hand. Xiao Fei recognized the figure immediately—it was Tang Hao. The figure wore tattered robes, walked through the air, and possessed two yellow, two purple, four black, and one red spirit rings.

"A chrysanthemum, a little devil, dare to harm my son?" Suddenly, a colossal Haotian True Form appeared in the sky, a figure hundreds of feet tall, wielding a massive Haotian Hammer. A crimson light filled the sky as the figure brought the hammer down with overwhelming force. This strike seemed to carry an unparalleled momentum, as if capable of shattering mountains. Even outside the attack's range, Xiao Fei felt an immense pressure bearing down on him. Suddenly, seven beams of light from the Spirit Hall flashed towards Tang Hao. A terrifying collision occurred in the air.

Suddenly, dawn broke, and Tang San and Xiao Wu were nowhere to be seen in the crowd. Xiao Fei, reflecting on the battle, gritted his teeth and said, "The Clear Sky Hammer, the number one weapon spirit in the world, Tang Hao, a level 95 Title Douluo." Many people around had already fainted. Huo Wu and Huo Wushuang were stunned, and Xiao Fei quickly woke up the people around him. Suddenly, he looked at Xue Qinghe, who was actually smiling at him. Xiao Fei was terrified and quickly went to Huo Tianchen.

Back at the hotel, Huo Tianchen, Huo Lie, Huo Wu, Huo Wushuang, and Xiao Fei were in a room with three soul bones on the table. Huo Tianchen said directly, "Xiao Fei, you made a great contribution to this Soul Master Competition. You can keep this Spirit Condensation Wisdom Skull." Seeing everyone's gazes, Xiao Fei put away the Spirit Condensation Wisdom Skull. Actually, Xiao Fei didn't really want the skull, feeling it was a bit too young, but then he suddenly remembered something and put it away. The Swift Wind Chaser left leg was given to Huo Wu, and the Explosive Burning Flame right arm was given to Huo Wushuang. Huo Wu is a control-type, and with the head and speed soul bones, her combat power would greatly increase. The Explosive Burning Flame right arm was suitable for both of them, but Huo Wushuang's martial soul was a One-Horned Fire Tyrannosaurus, and the arm bone was more suitable for enhancing his combat power.

Huo Tianchen continued, "Xiao Fei, now that you're ready to graduate, what are your plans for the future?" Xiao Fei looked around at the people, thought for a moment, and said, "Dean, I should be level 50 soon. I want to get a Soul Ring, go out and train for a while, and then return to school."

Huo Tianchen thought for a moment and said, "You guys absorb the soul bones first, we can talk about other things when we get back to school."

Xiao Fei thought for a moment, hesitated for a second, and finally said, "Dean, wait a moment, I have something else for you."

After saying that, Xiao Fei took out several jade boxes and said, "These are immortal herbs that I obtained by chance. They have the effect of strengthening the foundation and nourishing the vital energy. Some of them can even evolve martial souls. They are somewhat similar to the Phoenix Sunflower I ate earlier."

"Dean, this is the Earth Dragon Golden Melon. It has a trace of dragon blood, which is more suitable for you." The Earth Dragon Golden Melon was given to Huo Tianchen.

"Sister Huowu, this is the Acacia Heartbreak Red, the king of flowers, which suits your current temperament quite well." He gave the Acacia Heartbreak Red to Huowu.

"Huo Wushuang, this is a Grade 9 Dragon Fungus, which is more suitable for you." He gave the Grade 9 Dragon Fungus to Huo Wushuang.

"Director Huo Lie, this is the Vajra Arhat Fruit, which is quite suitable for your martial soul." He gave the Vajra Arhat Fruit to Huo Lie.

Suddenly remembering something, he said to Huo Wu, "The Acacia Heartbreak Red needs to be recognized by its owner with blood before it can be absorbed. Try spitting blood on it." Xiao Fei dared not tell Huo Wu the story of the Acacia Heartbreak Red.

Huo Wu thought for a moment, glanced at Xiao Fei, and spat blood onto the Acacia Heartbreak Red. The Acacia Heartbreak Red glowed, and the Black Stone at its base fell off. Huo Wu immediately beamed with joy and said, "It seems there's a connection between me and the Acacia Heartbreak Red."

Huo Tianchen said, "Xiao Fei, don't you have any? Why don't you have mine? I'm old now and don't have much progress to make."

Xiao Fei shook his head and said, "I have prepared the immortal herbs myself. Dean, you are our pillar. Now many people outside know that we have soul bones. Only when you are strong, Dean, can we be safe."

Huo Tianchen thought for a moment, then nodded.
