Chapter 31: The Strong Create Divine Artifacts
"yes!"
Dugu Bo felt a little strange looking at Gu Xuan's mature and composed demeanor, after all, he actually saw a certain sense of composure in a young man.
He didn't dare ask about Gu Xuan's situation. Although he was very curious about how Gu Xuan managed to absorb his second soul ring for a thousand years, and so quickly, he didn't think he was tough enough to know so many secrets.
"Alright, now that we've absorbed the spirit ring, let's go back."
Gu Rong glanced at the sky. They had arrived at noon, and only two or three hours had passed. If they returned to the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School now, they could still make it in time for dinner.
"good!"
Gu Xuan had no objection. He came out to hunt for spirit rings, and it was perfectly fine for him to go back after he had finished hunting.
As for Dugu Bo's medicinal herb garden.
To be honest, he really didn't think much of it.
At his current cultivation speed, even if his peers take drugs, they could never catch up with his progress.
I might go check it out when I have time later.
Besides, he couldn't just tell Dugu Bo directly that he wanted to visit his herb garden, could he?
How do you know that Dugu Bo has a medicinal herb garden without any evidence?
This is something only Dugu Bo himself knows.
Its origin is too difficult to explain.
Since I'm too lazy to explain, I'll just go again when I have the chance.
Anyway, Dugu Bo is currently working for him, and as long as it's not too abrupt, there will always be a way to go to the Ice and Fire Yin-Yang Eye in the future.
As for Tang San?
Although he had no relation to Tang San, Dugu Bo was now under his command, so the Ice and Fire Yin-Yang Well naturally became his property, meaning the Ice and Fire Yin-Yang Well and Tang San were no longer connected.
"that!"
Gu Rong and Gu Xuan were preparing to return to the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School, but at that moment, Dugu Bo awkwardly raised his hand.
"Um, could I go a couple of days later? I have some things to take care of in Sunset Forest."
Dugu Bo said with a smirk.
The invasion of the Azure Scale Serpent's venom caused his body to experience excruciating pain every time the moon was full or cloudy. Only the ice and fire energy of the Ice and Fire Yin-Yang Eye could alleviate this pain.
Today happens to be the night of the full moon on the fifteenth of the lunar month, and he would be in excruciating pain if he didn't stay at the Ice and Fire Yin-Yang Well.
Furthermore, he needs to store some ice and fire energy to cope with rainy days, so he needs to wait a few days before he can guard the ancient pavilion.
Even so, he'll probably have to take two days off every month from now on.
Gu Rong didn't speak but looked at Gu Xuan, waiting for him to make a decision.
"Alright, I'll give you a few days to prepare."
Gu Xuan thought for a moment, then checked the dates and understood Dugu Bo's original intention. He wasn't in a hurry to go to the Ice and Fire Yin-Yang Eye with Dugu Bo, so he nodded and granted him a few days off.
No one likes someone who tries to pry into another's secrets as soon as they meet them, not even their boss.
He believed he would tell him the reason himself in the future.
Then we'll find an opportunity to naturally head to the Ice and Fire Yin-Yang Eye.
"Thank you, young master."
Dugu Boyi's goodwill towards Gu Xuan has increased considerably. If he had previously yielded to Gu Xuan's talent and Gu Rong's strength, now he also appreciates Gu Xuan's character to some extent.
"Come to the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School as soon as possible. I have some things to take care of when I need to go out. I'll leave Xuan'er's safety to you then."
Gu Rong looked at Dugu Bo and said seriously.
"Okay, I promise to handle everything as quickly as possible!"
Dugu Bo bowed to Gu Rong and said.
Gu Rong nodded slightly, then transformed into a bone dragon and flew into the sky with Gu Xuan. After circling in the sky once, they headed directly towards the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School.
"Gu Xuan, the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School, perhaps this is also a home for Yan Yan."
As Dugu Bo watched the ancient banyan and pavilion disappear into the distance, his gaze gradually became wise.
He didn't have much time left to live, but before that, he wanted to find a strong backer for Dugu Yan.
It now seems that Gu Xuan is definitely the first and best choice.
After making his choice, Dugu Bo flashed towards the Yin-Yang Well of Ice and Fire.
On the way to the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School, Gu Rong and Gu Xuan sat cross-legged on the head of the bone dragon.
Looking down, the endless forest was quickly left behind.
To prevent the strong winds from affecting Gu Xuan, Gu Rong thoughtfully used her soul power to isolate the surrounding area.
"Xuan'er, how was the harvest this time?"
After leaving Dugu Bo's field of vision, Gu Rong's composed demeanor vanished instantly, and she quickly came to Gu Xuan's side, curiously looking at him and asking questions.
They seemed even more eager than Gu Xuan himself to see the effects of the talisman soul skills.
Seeing the significant changes in Gu Rong, Gu Xuan rolled his eyes but didn't refuse Gu Rong's curiosity.
Instead, he waved his hand and summoned the Holy Lord Stone Sculpture. After being baptized by two Soul Rings, the Holy Lord Stone Sculpture remained unchanged, but three of the twelve grooves had been inlaid with talismans.
They are a dragon, a dog, and the horse they just acquired.
Gu Xuan took the horse talisman into his hand first. With the circulation of his soul power, a white light flashed, and Gu Xuan felt a sense of relaxation throughout his body.
Those minor injuries caused by the grueling training were instantly repaired, making his already young body even more vibrant.
"Um?
Has anything changed?
Gu Xuan had relatively few hidden injuries, so the effect of the horse talisman didn't cause much of a change, and Gu Rong didn't notice anything wrong with Gu Xuan for the time being.
They stared wide-eyed, trying to figure out exactly where the change was.
"Grandpa, you can try it yourself, but be careful, it might make quite a commotion."
Gu Xuan is not exaggerating at all; for veteran Soul Masters, dogs and horses are definitely the most suitable talismans for them.
Because veteran Soul Masters experience a decline in physical function, the power they can unleash cannot reach its peak.
Because of their age, they have participated in many battles, which leaves behind many hidden wounds that cannot be repaired.
This reduces the lifespan and combat power of Soul Masters in various ways.
Otherwise, the lifespan of a typical Title Douluo starts at three hundred years, increasing by one hundred years for each level up.
Once you become a Title Douluo, becoming a Limit Douluo is only a matter of time.
However, in reality, many titled Douluo do not actually live to the end of their lives. Instead, they suddenly die when their bodily functions can no longer suppress their internal injuries.
The dog talisman can only keep the holder at their peak physical condition, making it essentially a personal artifact.
But the horse talisman is different.
It is a medical device that, once the horse talisman is removed after treatment, will not cause any hidden injuries to reappear in the soul master's body.
Think about it, although it doesn't have the same peak physical function as the dog talisman, the horse talisman can restore a soul master to the peak physical condition of their current age.
What an incredible stroke of luck that must have been!
For the people of Douluo Continent, the Horse Talisman is definitely a machine for creating powerful individuals.
If others truly knew the effects of the Horse Talisman, then Gu Xuan would probably make them kneel and sing "Conquer" without them having any objections.
"Is it really that amazing?"
Looking at Gu Xuan's serious expression, Gu Rong became somewhat skeptical.
For safety reasons, they even found a safe place to put Gu Xuan down before taking the horse talisman from Gu Xuan's hand.
