Douluo: Two brothers in douluo

Chapter 74: Chapter 74: This Meal Tastes So Good…



Dai Mubai turned back to look at the now "spotless" Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well and nodded with satisfaction.

It had taken him an entire day to leave the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well looking as if it had been plowed by an ox.

Absorbing the Strange Velvet Sky Chrysanthemum had taken Dai Mubai only two hours, but it took him a full day to absorb the Octagonal Mysterious Ice Grass and the Fiery Delicate Apricot.

The Ice and Fire Alchemy Body, as well as the alchemical properties of the Strange Velvet Sky Chrysanthemum, gave him an incomplete Indestructible Diamond Body. Although the effect was far from a true indestructible state, it wasn't without its benefits.

With the three celestial herbs consumed, Dai Mubai's Indestructible Vajra Divine Skill had advanced to the sixth level ahead of schedule.

"It's time to leave this place."

Murmuring to himself, Dai Mubai left the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well. By now, his spirit power had already reached level fifty-nine, only a step away from breaking into the Spirit Emperor rank—just one level and one spirit ring short.

Hanging at his waist was a luxurious "sachet"—a gift from Qian Renxue, although it could also be interpreted as… well, Dai Mubai eating soft rice—cough cough.

Not knowing when Dugu Bo might return, Dai Mubai carefully made his way out of the Sunset Forest.

Finally, he returned to the Spirit Hall in Heaven Dou City.

About an hour later, Qian Renxue arrived, as if deliberately making him wait.

In the great hall, Qian Renxue's beautiful eyes reflected Dai Mubai's figure, and to her surprise, she could no longer see through Dai Mubai's exact spirit power level!

She clearly remembered that when she broke through to Spirit Emperor, Dai Mubai had only just reached Spirit King. Now, she couldn't even discern his true strength…

Seeing Qian Renxue arrive, Dai Mubai's heart was full of gratitude. Without Qian Renxue's generous help, this trip wouldn't have been nearly as successful.

Dai Mubai opened the sachet Qian Renxue had given him—it was a storage soul tool capable of storing living things—and took out a jade box containing the Eight-Petal Immortal Orchid.

"This is for you."

Dai Mubai handed the jade box to Qian Renxue.

The Eight-Petal Immortal Orchid could consolidate one's foundation, cleanse impurities, and was incredibly gentle in its medicinal nature, making it easy to absorb.

Qian Renxue looked at Dai Mubai in confusion. This was the second time he had given her something. Hmm, if that kiss didn't count, this was technically the first time he'd ever gifted her anything.

The jade box looked cheap, its exterior unremarkable, but what was inside mattered more than appearances.

Driven by curiosity, Qian Renxue opened the box. Inside lay a pristine, crystal-clear white orchid, exuding an aura of transcendence and purity.

Qian Renxue gave Dai Mubai a puzzled look. Giving flowers? And an orchid at that? Wouldn't roses have been more appropriate?

Noticing her confusion, Dai Mubai explained,

"This is a celestial herb called the Eight-Petal Immortal Orchid. When consumed, it consolidates one's foundation and removes impurities. Your martial spirit is the Six-Winged Angel, which already has a soul power purification effect…"

"This herb might not benefit you as much, but it should increase your spirit power by a few levels."

After Dai Mubai finished explaining, Qian Renxue's hands trembled slightly as she held the box.

Where did he find such a divine object? And he came all this way just to give it to me!

At that moment, Qian Renxue was deeply moved. As a hopeless romantic, and considering she and Dai Mubai had a Martial Spirit Fusion Technique…

If it weren't for this, she wouldn't have helped him. If it weren't for this, she wouldn't have let him steal a kiss.

If it were anyone else, she would have torn them to pieces!

"I've already reached the Spirit Emperor rank. This Eight-Petal Immortal Orchid won't do much for me; you should take it instead."

As soon as Qian Renxue finished speaking, she saw Dai Mubai shake his head.

"I've already consumed something better."

Qian Renxue: "…"

Bloodthorn: "…"

If this boy were single, I could understand why. But he's not.

"Hurry up and absorb it. Celestial herbs start losing their potency once plucked. The sooner you consume it, the better."

Hearing his words, Qian Renxue rolled her eyes at him but still obediently sat down, following Dai Mubai's instructions to absorb the Eight-Petal Immortal Orchid.

Seeing this, Dai Mubai casually sat down and took out the Autumn Water Dew. Activating his martial spirit, he dripped a drop of the dew onto the vertical eye on his forehead.

"If I ever get the chance to visit the Sun Moon Continent and slay the Evil Emperor to fuse…"

Evil Eyes—a type of soul beast that only dropped a single type of external soul bone: an eye.

The Evil-Eyed Tyrant Master, also known as the Evil Emperor, ranked second among the Ten Ferocious Beasts.

Bloodthorn, witnessing Dai Mubai take out yet another celestial herb, felt his heart ache. He had just dripped a single drop on his eye and casually discarded the rest!

This is a divine treasure! How can he treat it so carelessly?!

Bloodthorn had no way of knowing that only that single drop of Autumn Water Dew held value; the rest was useless.

Time passed, and two brilliant auras of light erupted in the hall. The two forces intertwined, fused, and gradually transformed into something else…

At that moment, the two, sitting far apart, opened their eyes simultaneously, halting the fusion of the auras.

"I didn't expect just a single orchid to increase my spirit power by three levels and purify my soul power significantly."

"Not only that, I can still feel the residual power within me; there's more to gain later."

Qian Renxue whispered to herself, amazed at the changes.

Her spirit power had already reached level sixty-five. To think she had only recently broken through to level sixty-two!

As for Dai Mubai, his spirit power remained unchanged, but his spiritual power had improved tremendously, as if he had absorbed a top-tier spiritual soul bone.

"Well, Xue'er, if there's nothing else, I'll get going."

Dai Mubai stood up, patting the non-existent dust off his clothes.

"Xue'er?"

Hearing this term of endearment, Qian Renxue froze briefly, her cheeks flushing red.

Suddenly, as if remembering something, she spoke up,

"Those two soul bones you gave me—I already exchanged them. I only managed to get a sixty-five-thousand-year Wind Demon Wolf King's Left Leg Bone in return."

Dai Mubai froze slightly, then nodded. This Qian Renxue is really something else…

Two soul bones exchanged for one might seem like a loss, but in truth, it was a huge gain!

A sixty-five-thousand-year Wind Demon Wolf King's Left Leg Bone—even Titled Douluo would covet such a bone.

Those two soul bones were only around thirty thousand years each. Even combined, their age couldn't compare to this one. But it wasn't just about age!

Ten-thousand, fifty-thousand, and hundred-thousand-year thresholds were major divides. Soul bones exceeding fifty thousand years were considered top-tier treasures!

Dai Mubai walked up to Qian Renxue, and under her curious gaze…
