Chapter 10 Genius is merely the threshold to seeing me
During their journey, Yue Guan took the opportunity to tell Dong'er about knowledge about soul beasts, while Ye Tian listened attentively in his mental space.
A Soul Master imparted his experience without reservation, especially Yue Guan, who had a deep understanding of plants due to his own martial soul.
During the hour-long journey, Ye Tian listened with rapt attention. If his understanding of herbs was 1 before, it was now 10.
Yue Guan and Dong'er searched in the forest for a while and soon noticed a soft rustling sound in the shadows.
He flicked his fingers, and the hidden soul beast let out a miserable cry and flew out of the bushes.
It was a giant spider, the size of a millstone, with menacing teeth.
"Dong'er, this wolf venom spider is about five hundred years old, which is perfect for you to absorb. Take the dagger and go kill it."
Dong'er grunted in response, completely unfazed by the giant spider's ferocious face. He stepped forward and, facing the spider which was now unable to move, plunged a knife into its heart.
A few seconds later, the spirit ring appeared. Yue Guan immediately reminded Dong'er, who sat cross-legged, summoned her martial soul, and began to absorb the first spirit ring.
Ye Tian sensed Dong'er's condition and relaxed after a moment.
With the Peiyuan Pill, Dong'er's development over the past six months has been fully made up, and his physical fitness is comparable to that of a seven or eight-year-old child.
It only took Dong'er a quarter of an hour to completely absorb the soul ring.
She opened her eyes, and a yellow ring appeared behind her. The soul ring flashed, and Dong'er spat out a cold light, which swiftly struck a tree trunk ten meters away.
With Yue Guan's keen eyesight, he could clearly see the changes on the tree trunk.
The tree trunk, half a meter in diameter, was pierced through, and there was some black around the wound. It was clear that Dong'er's first soul skill had also inherited the spider venom.
"Dong'er, what level is your soul power right now?"
Dong'er closed her eyes to feel the soul power within her body, but in reality, she was quietly asking Ye Tian a question.
"Brother Ye Tian, should I tell the truth?"
"Speak! Now is the perfect time for Dong'er to showcase your talent!"
Dong'er hummed in agreement, opened her eyes, and said directly, "Lord Yueguan, my current soul power is at level fourteen."
"Okay, okay!"
Yue Guan laughed loudly several times, his gaze toward Dong'er becoming increasingly kind.
There were geniuses in the hall with innate full soul power, but the fastest of them took half an hour to absorb their first soul ring, and they only reached level twelve or thirteen after absorbing the soul ring.
Even a difference of one level means at least a month of hard work, and Dong'er will be ahead of the others as soon as he enrolls.
Moreover, Yue Guan had just observed carefully that Dong'er didn't show much pain when absorbing the 500-year soul ring. This meant that her second soul ring could increase in age, and she might actually be able to absorb a thousand-year soul ring!
"Lord Yueguan, are the others different from me?"
"Of course. Even geniuses vary!"
Yue Guan looked at Dong'er with admiration, and a thought suddenly popped into her mind. She said softly, "Dong'er, would you like to become my disciple?"
As if afraid that Dong'er would not agree, Yue Guan revealed all his trump cards at once.
"I am Yue Guan, forty-five years old this year, and already an eighty-level Soul Douluo. Moreover, my Martial Soul, the Qirui Tongtian Chrysanthemum, is the most outstanding among plant-type Martial Souls, and I am expected to break through to the Title Douluo level at the age of fifty!"
"Furthermore, I have a close friend with whom I can perform a Soul Fusion Technique, and he is no weaker than me. With our combined strength, we can now defeat even a Title Douluo!"
"There are only about twenty titled Soul Masters on the entire continent!"
Yue Guan's tone was full of pride, but Ye Tian noticed a hint of unease flickering in his eyes as he looked at Dong'er.
Ye Tian quickly realized why.
Dong'er's physical condition was built up by him using the Qi-Nourishing Pill. Moreover, the process of him communicating with Dong'er about her absorbing the soul ring was so natural and painless.
After Dong'er broke through, her soul power increased to level fourteen, indicating that the consumption of the Peiyuan Pill had increased her original level ten soul power by at least one level.
Yue Guan felt that if he didn't act now, he wouldn't have a chance to take down a six-year-old Soul Master at level fourteen.
"Dong'er, it's up to you to decide what to do."
Ye Tian did not interfere with Dong'er's choice.
Dong'er hesitated for a moment, then knelt down and bowed to Yue Guan.
"Dong'er greets Master!"
"Hahaha, my good disciple, get up quickly!"
With a broad smile, Yue Guan helped Dong'er up. "Come on, come on, let me take you to meet my old friend!"
Yue Guan immediately carried Dong'er on his back and sped back to Wuhun City. Upon arriving at his residence, after arranging a room for Dong'er, Yue Guan began to rummage through his savings.
What kind of thousand-year-old ginseng, crystal flower...?
He unearthed all the precious medicinal herbs he had collected over half his life and moved them all into the alchemy room as if they were free.
He wanted to lay the best foundation for his apprentice before Dong'er went to the academy!
"Dong'er, starting tomorrow, you must drink a packet of herbs every morning and evening. At the same time, I will arrange for someone to train your physique. Only by pushing your physical strength to the limit can the medicinal power of the herbs be maximized!"
"Dong'er understands, thank you, Master!"
"I'll be away for the next few days, but your teacher will be back on time when you start school in seven days, Dong'er. Just call the steward if you need anything."
Yue Guan gave detailed instructions for a long time before leaving. As soon as he left the mansion, he rushed to the next door and called his good friend Lao Gui.
Last year, he found a 5,000-year-old blood ginseng in an 80,000-year-old shadow tiger. He originally planned to nurture it for a while, but now he can use it to improve Dong'er's cultivation!
"Brother Ye Tian, my master is a good person!"
Hearing this, Ye Tian had a wry smile on his face. Well, Ren Yueguan put in all his effort to arrange things for you, and all you got was a "good guy" card.
Dong'er and Ye Tian talked for a while and then Dong'er fell asleep. Night fell, and soon the day's settlement began.
"The host has significantly altered the character's fate and prevented the birth of the next generation of the chosen one, gaining 5000 Fate Points."
Ye Tian was surprised by so many points of destiny.
He didn't do much today, so does that mean Dong'er's own choice is also attributed to him?
Ye Tian pondered for a moment. The only possible reason for today's generous rewards was that Dong'er had become Yue Guan's disciple.
He now knows that Dong'er is Bibi Dong from a parallel world. Without his intervention, Dong'er would definitely have revealed her talent for twin martial souls.
Now that Yue Guan has acted ahead of time, Qian Xunji, as the Pope, probably wouldn't try to steal his own disciple.
If that's the case, then if he waits for Dong'er to come of age, and Tang Hao of the Haotian Sect is born and takes away Ah Yin in human form, wouldn't that mean Tang San would be gone?
If Tang San is gone, then the dual godhood of the Sea God and the Asura God will no longer exist. At that time, Dong'er, who will inherit the Rakshasa Godhood, will no longer face the crisis of falling.
When Ye Tian consciously realized that this was a parallel world, one pattern after another kept popping into his mind.
Let Tang Shenwang of this world do his best to be a good host, hehe!
