Chapter 10: From Now On, Spirit Bones Are Free?
Bai Yu handed Dugu Bo a black vine with a small golden melon at its tip.
Dugu Bo looked at the vine in his hand, his expression bewildered: "Kid, what is this? Is it useful?"
Bai Yu didn't even lift his head, continuing to busy himself: "This item is called Earth Dragon Golden Melon. Eating it can strengthen one's origin and transform one's body into a dragon's."
"To put it simply, it can allow your granddaughter to increase her spirit power by five or six levels without any hidden dangers, plus her Spirit's evolution."
Dugu Bo's hand trembled, almost dropping the Earth Dragon Golden Melon, but then he quickly clutched it tightly.
"Kid, you're not joking, are you? Is this little golden melon really that useful? It won't be poisonous, will it?" Dugu Bo was both excited and nervous.
"Tsk, you Old Poison, if you don't want it, give it back to me," he said, rolling his eyes at Dugu Bo.
Dugu Bo immediately put away the Earth Dragon Golden Melon: "Yes, why wouldn't I want it? Are there any more that Yan Yan can use? Give them all to me, I won't mind too many."
Bai Yu waved his hand helplessly: "This item is called Immortal Herb. Different Immortal Herbs conflict greatly with each other."
"So, normally, one person taking one type of Immortal Herb yields the best effect, but for the elderly, or for a Title Douluo, the effect of an Immortal Herb is greatly reduced, and using it is not cost-effective."
"Also, the Earth Dragon Golden Melon cannot survive for more than six hours once it leaves the earth, so you need to hurry."
Dugu Bo's expression tightened: "Then I'll leave first. When you return to Heaven Dou City, come and discuss joining Spirit Hall with me."
As soon as he finished speaking, Dugu Bo flew towards Heaven Dou City.
Meanwhile, Bai Yu looked at the two herbs in the middle of the Double-boiled hot pot .
"Fiery Apricot Delicate and Octagonal Mysterious Ice Grass. I'll also undergo a baptism of fire and water to refine my body. It should enhance my Domain," Bai Yu murmured to himself.
He then quickly cut off the two Immortal Herbs, stuffed them into his mouth simultaneously, and plunged into the Double-boiled hot pot .
Actually, for Bai Yu, the Immortal Herbs from the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well didn't have much effect.
Over the years, under the baptism of Yin Yang Domain, both his body and mental force had greatly improved.
This could be seen from his spirit ring configuration: Bai Yu's spirit ring configuration was yellow, purple, purple, black.
Furthermore, his spirit power possessed ice and fire attributes, and was extremely condensed, so Immortal Herbs could only enrich his foundation.
As time passed, the moon reached the center of the sky.
"Splash!"
With a splash, Bai Yu crawled out of the Double-boiled hot pot , his clothes completely gone.
Under the moonlight, his figure appeared extremely well-proportioned. As he wiped his body, streamlined muscles emerged, full of explosive power like a leopard.
Bai Yu put on his clothes, activated his Yin Yang Domain and felt it for a moment, then shook his head.
"There's an enhancement, but not much. However, my body has gained a lot of strength, so it's still acceptable."
"Look at this physique, look at this waist. Future beauties will be blessed!"
"Tsk, all the Immortal Herbs and high-grade, top-grade medicinal ingredients have been collected. It's time to go back."
After a moment of narcissism, Bai Yu walked out of the valley.
"Eh? What is this?"
With his ability to perceive origins and his Yin Yang Domain, he clearly sensed within the Domain's coverage that a spot of land at the foot of the mountain was emitting a different origin fluctuation than its surroundings.
Unlike the calm and restrained nature of the earth itself, it was emitting a flame-like fluctuation outwards.
Curious, he walked over, summoned his Blue Silver Grass, and began to dig.
"This is... a Spirit Bone?" Bai Yu's expression was extremely shocked.
He hadn't expected that his ability to perceive origins, combined with his spirit power Domain, could actually find Spirit Bones?
"This is... the right arm bone of an eight-thousand-year-old Flame Lizard, with the Spirit Ability, Blazing Impact."
After carefully sensing its origin, he learned the Spirit Bone's origin, age, and Spirit Ability.
Looking at the Spirit Bone in his hand, Bai Yu's eyes widened: "If that's the case, doesn't that mean I can find all Spirit Bones from Spirit Beasts that died for reasons other than human hunting?"
"Haha, aren't I rich now? From now on, I'll be the richest person on the continent."
"Speaking of Spirit Bones, there should be a pair of divine force Spirit Bones under the Double-boiled hot pot , but unfortunately, the pressure down there is too strong to go down."
"And there's also the Life Lake in the very center of the continent; the fierce beasts there also collect Spirit Bones, but going there would be suicide."
Bai Yu put away his excited smile, stopped muttering to himself, and was no longer in a hurry to return to Heaven Dou City.
He turned around, activated his Domain, and ran at extreme speed, conducting a carpet search in Sunset Forest.
...
A month later, Bai Yu found a small river in Sunset Forest to wash himself.
He regretted living like a savage for a month. He had been too excited at the time, so much so that he forgot that high-grade Spirit Beasts don't die so easily without human hunting.
Moreover, it's not like a Spirit Bone will drop every time one dies; the probability of a Spirit Bone appearing is not high. Most importantly, Spirit Bones were useless to him; he never planned to absorb them.
He was afraid that the Spirit Bone's attributes would affect the balance of the Yin Yang Domain within his body.
Therefore, for Bai Yu, Spirit Bones were not very useful except for giving them away. After all, with such a large Spirit Hall behind him, he couldn't sell them to aid the enemy.
"After a month of hard work, the harvest is meager. I've already swept through a fifth of Sunset Forest, and I only found 327 Spirit Bones."
"There were only 16 over ten thousand years, and only three over thirty thousand years. I'll leave it to fate from now on; being a savage isn't that easy."
"But I did acquire two external Spirit Bones: a three-thousand-year-old Illusion Butterfly Wing and a ninety-year-old Shadow Cat's Claw?"
"Speaking of which, are there really ten-year Spirit Bones? As the Spirit Hall Saint Child, I was truly ignorant."
After washing himself and putting on his clothes, Bai Yu said no more. He looked at the direction and walked towards Heaven Dou City.
At the Dugu Mansion, Bai Yu looked at Dugu Bo, whose hair had turned white, and smiled: "Congratulations, Old Poison, from now on, you can rest easy."
"Haha, kid, after such a long time, I thought you had died in Sunset Forest." Dugu Bo laughed heartily as he walked towards Bai Yu.
Bai Yu snorted: "You'd die before I do. Stop joking. I came to tell you that I'll transmit your information about joining Spirit Hall to Spirit City later."
"As for what you need to do next, the Supreme Pontiff Palace will arrange it for you."
"Next, I'm going to meet someone, a friend I haven't met before."
"After that, I'll also leave Heaven Dou City. I don't know when we'll meet again. Take care, Old Poison."
Bai Yu's expression was solemn as he began to bid Dugu Bo farewell.
A look of wistfulness appeared on Dugu Bo's face: "You're leaving so soon? I still wanted to introduce my granddaughter to you."
"Oh, by the way, that Earth Dragon Golden Melon you gave me was quite amazing. Yan Yan's Spirit has evolved, and it's now the Jade Phosphor Poison Dragon."
"Her spirit power also increased by five levels, and she is now level thirty-eight."
Bai Yu turned and walked out, waving his hand: "There will be plenty of opportunities to meet in the future, no rush."
"Kid, after all this time, I still don't know your age and spirit power level. As the Spirit Hall Saint Child, it should be pretty good, right?"
Dugu Bo looked at his retreating back and asked.
"Twelve years old, level forty-eight," Bai Yu paused, then disappeared through the doorway.
Dugu Bo's eyes flashed with admiration: "Heh, this Little freak, a level forty-eight Spirit Ancestor, is actually two years younger than Yan Yan!"
Leaving the Dugu Mansion, Bai Yu headed straight for the Heaven Dou City Spirit Hall.
"Stop, who are you? What is your business here?" The guard at the door looked at the masked Bai Yu, his face full of suspicion.
He scanned the Heaven Dou City's Spirit Hall, took out the Supreme Pontiff's order, and said calmly: "Inform Salas, someone from Spirit City has arrived."
