Chapter 63 Fragrant Silk Elixir
Lin Feng said no more, and with a flick of his fingers at his waist, a warm purple light appeared in his palm.
A longan-sized, translucent inner core, as clear as amethyst, lay quietly in his hand.
The surface of the pill had faint cloud patterns flowing around it, and even more strangely, a faint, extremely elegant fragrance quietly spread out.
The fragrance wasn't strong, yet it seemed to penetrate all impurities, reaching deep into the lungs and invigorating the spirit.
"This pill was taken from a fragrant and exquisite immortal herb with a cultivation of 100,000 years." Lin Feng's voice was calm, yet every word was clear.
"A fragrant and exquisite celestial delicacy?!"
Poison Undying gasped in shock, his face filled with astonishment, his eyes like lightning, fixed on the purple inner core as if trying to see right through it.
"The legendary antidote to all poisons—it is said to exist only in the Yin-Yang Well of Ice and Fire." Poison Undying's voice trembled uncontrollably, an instinctive reaction to the thing he had craved all his life.
Du Bu Si knew all too well what this Fragrant Silk Immortal Item meant to a Soul Master like him who was constrained by the backlash of his innate poisonous body. It was something that could truly break the shackles of fate!
His intense gaze shifted from the pill to Lin Feng's face, his expression a mixture of shock and profound complexity.
He understood that such a heaven-defying item was not easily obtained. Lin Feng's decision to take it out at this moment was deeply meaningful.
Lin Feng met Du Busi's gaze calmly, but his mind was clear as a mirror.
He knew that while the Body Sect was domineering and protective of its own outsiders, it was extremely united and loyal within its own ranks, especially towards those it recognized as its own people, whom it would often protect with all its might.
Providing this elixir at this moment is not only a timely help, but also a weighty karmic debt.
What he wanted was a huge favor from this level 98 Super Douluo, the sect master of the Body Sect, a power he could rely on in the future, and even the possibility of being able to command him at the right time.
"Sect Master," Lin Feng said slowly, holding the purple pill closer in his palm, "this pill may neutralize the innate poison that has accumulated in your body over the years, gently nourish and reshape the damaged meridians, paving the way for breaking through that final barrier."
Du Busi didn't immediately take it. His chest heaved slightly, and his eyes flickered violently, clearly indicating that he was experiencing a turbulent internal struggle.
When he looked at Lin Feng again, his gaze had become incredibly deep and sharp, as if he wanted to dissect and see through all the schemes deep in Lin Feng's soul.
"Good lad," Poison Undying's voice returned to its usual deep tone, yet it carried immense power, "You've given me such an opportunity so easily? State your conditions. I don't like owing favors to people without a clear explanation."
Although he yearns for a breakthrough, having lived a life of great success, how could he not understand the principle of equivalent exchange? Lin Feng's actions must have a grand purpose.
"Let's achieve mutual success. I will do my best to help the Body Sect reach the pinnacle of the continent." Lin Feng's eyes were like torches, and his voice was calm and clear as he revealed his plan word by word. "And the sect, at the very least, should help me reach the Title Douluo realm."
"Peak—" Poison Undying slowly repeated these two words, his eyes flashing with a sharp light. He did not immediately refute or question them, but instead fell into an extreme state of deep concentration.
"Although I still can't see through your true nature, young man, and I have no idea how many extraordinary opportunities and fortuitous encounters you still possess, this ambition—I'm utterly convinced!"
Although the Body Sect nominally serves the Heavenly Soul Empire, it is highly independent, and its core members are all Soul Masters with Body Martial Souls, making it difficult for outsiders to infiltrate.
This is exactly what Lin Feng has his eye on: a pure, powerful, and relatively independent top-tier Soul Master organization.
What he wanted to achieve was to completely transform this force from the Heavenly Soul's national guardian sect into his sharpest spear and strongest backing.
Lin Feng was not in a hurry to reveal his specific god-making plan. After all, he was just a minor Soul King with limited qualifications for negotiation, and he had not yet fully figured out the background of this Undying Poison.
What he needs to do is proceed gradually.
"I hope the elixir can help the sect leader," Lin Feng said happily, handing the Fragrant Silk Elixir to Poison Undying.
"Good! With this elixir, I finally have hope of breaking free from the shackles of this poisonous body!" Poison Undying took the Fragrant Silk Elixir, his eyes shining brightly, as if he could already see the way forward.
Without hesitation, he immediately took out a jet-black metal token engraved with the word "poison" from his pocket and handed it to Lin Feng.
He then instructed, "This is my warrant. Seeing this warrant is like seeing me. From today onwards, you may use this warrant to summon the elders for discussions and participate in the decision-making of matters large and small within the sect. Inform them of my seclusion tomorrow. I need to intensify my seclusion now. Recently, the evil soul masters within the empire have been stirring up trouble, and I have a very bad feeling about it."
"I understand." Lin Feng accepted the token, feeling its weighty significance. "Then I wish the Sect Master a speedy breakthrough and that he will reach the pinnacle. I will take my leave now and not disturb the Sect Master's seclusion any longer."
"Alright." Poison-Undying nodded emphatically, already eager to begin his pre-seclusion meditation.
The next day, as dawn broke, the mountain mist had not yet dissipated.
Inside the sect's council hall, the atmosphere was solemn. Several elders, each possessing a deep aura and cultivation at the Title Douluo level, sat on either side.
Lin Feng sat to the side of the main seat, with the black sect leader's token in front of him. He did not use his power to intimidate him, but first told him about Du Busi's seclusion in search of a breakthrough.
He then planned to allocate thirty thousand-year-old medicinal herbs and two ten-thousand-year-old medicinal herbs from his personal collection to those with potential.
Contributing and suitable core disciples.
The elders initially had different expressions, some scrutinizing and some doubting, but upon seeing the sect leader's order and hearing that the sect leader was expected to break through the bottleneck that had bound them for many years, they quickly nodded in agreement.
As for the medicinal herbs, there are reasons not to accept them for free.
The sect's storerooms mainly contain medicinal herbs that are a hundred years old; those that are a thousand years old or ten thousand years old are rare items no matter where they are placed.
The elders quickly reached a consensus and approved a preliminary plan for resource allocation.
That afternoon, a batch of carefully selected, compatible thousand-year-old medicinal herbs were distributed by designated personnel to thirty elite disciples who were being groomed for special training.
Lin Feng himself personally delivered two specially selected ancient medicinal herbs.
He arrived at a secluded rocky cliff in the back of the mountain.
A tall, imposing young man, his back like a mountain, is sitting in meditation facing the sea of clouds.
He was Long Aotian, the only "Gold-level Second Awakener of Martial Soul" among the younger generation of the Body Sect, as mentioned by the elders.
A 50,000-year-old Primordial Immortal Herb was quickly given to him.
After saying goodbye to Long Aotian, Lin Feng arrived at the Hundred Herbs Hall, where he found Vina studying the pharmacopoeia.
"Is Senior Sister Vina here?" Lin Feng's voice made the girl look up from her book.
"Junior Brother?" Vina put down the pharmacopoeia, her eyes asking.
Lin Feng took out a small jade box, and inside was an unassuming herb, entirely green, with a few drops of dew on its three snow-white leaves.
"Greetings, Senior Sister. This is a 50,000-year-old immortal-grade medicinal herb from my personal collection, the Autumn Water Dew of the River of Oblivion." Lin Feng pushed the jade box in front of Vina. "It has the miraculous effect of clearing the eyes and nourishing the spirit. It can help Senior Sister's spiritual power reach a higher level and can also help her develop Fiery Eyes. This item is perfect for you."
"This isn't right, it's so precious—"
"The sect leader's order is here; Senior Sister, please do not refuse."
Vina looked at the warrant, then glanced at Lin Feng, solemnly accepted the jade box with both hands, and said softly, "Sect Master's warrant—then Senior Sister thanks Junior Brother."
