Chapter 61 prepares for the fourth talisman.
The healing effect of the Nine-Heart Begonia was indeed remarkable, possessing a terrifying power that could bring the dead back to life and heal the wounded. However, Ye Lengleng's soul power was still a bit low, and coupled with her inadequate control over her soul power, she exhausted her soul power after only ten minutes, her body swaying and almost falling over.
Fortunately, Dugu Yan caught it with quick reflexes.
"Why are you showing off for no reason?"
Dugu Yan looked at Ye, who was a head shorter than her, and coldly reprimanded him.
She didn't know if it was fate, but after seeing Ye Lengleng, she felt a special connection with her. His gentle and weak appearance stirred up a protective instinct in her heart.
"I--"
Ye Leng Leng lowered her head, unsure of what to do; she just wanted to show off.
After all, she realized that she and her daughter only had one path to take now.
They could not defy the ancient banyan tree.
Moreover, Gu Xuan's talent was something she had never heard of before.
Having learned a lot from a young age, she clearly understood how lowly one would live if one didn't have enough value to others when trying to make a living under their thumb.
She wanted Gu Xuan to feel the value of their Nine-Heart Begonia, to make him understand that even though she was just a Soul Master, she could still play a role.
Stubborn yet adorably silly.
"Alright, apart from disliking being disturbed during his cultivation, the young master is quite easy to talk to, so don't worry."
"From now on, your older sister will protect you. As long as you behave well, I guarantee you a bright future."
Dugu Yan patted her chest and made a grand promise, while her colleague didn't forget to paint a rosy picture for Ye Lengleng, attempting to lure the innocent girl away.
"Yan, Sister Yan Yan."
Ye Lengleng looked at the somewhat dazed Dugu Yan, and a slight stirring touched her sealed heart.
"Let's go. Young Master will need to take a medicinal bath after his training. I'll take you to familiarize yourself with it first. After Young Master finishes his training, I'll talk to him and see if I can prepare one for you too."
Dugu Yan grabbed Ye Lengleng and ran off, wanting Ye Lengleng to perform well and try to earn the qualification of a companion cultivator as well.
"Thank you very much, Senior Dugu. If it weren't for Miss Yan Yan, I don't know how long Leng Leng would have remained silent."
Ye Xinlan watched the two little girls walk away, her eyes glistening with tears. She hadn't cried when she wasn't being forced or threatened, but now that she saw Ye Lengleng finally showing some change, she couldn't help but feel tears welling up in her eyes.
"It's nothing serious. Yan Yan was like that before, and it passed with time."
Dugu Bo looked at the two little girls and seemed to recall Dugu Yan from the past.
He knew the cruelty of the Nine Heart Begonia family's inheritance. Although it was not as painful as that of their own Jade Scales family, it was not much better. The birth of each successor meant the death of an elder.
It's cruel and realistic.
It's painful, yet we have no choice but to do it.
He, like the Nine Heart Begonia clan now, once frantically searched for a way to resolve the flaws in his own martial soul.
Until I met Gu Xuan.
Although the problem is not completely solved, there is no need to worry about the danger to one's life anymore. As long as one is alive, a solution can always be found.
The Nine Heart Begonia clan has been playing both sides for years, and they have had ideas about finding a way to solve the problem of martial souls from those people, but unfortunately they haven't.
"Um!"
Ye Xinlan quickly wiped away the tears from the corners of her eyes, composed herself, and regained a proper smile.
"I apologize, Senior Dugu, I lost control of my emotions."
Ye Xinlan's face showed apology.
"It's alright, we'll be on the same side from now on, no need to be so polite."
Dugu Bo also instantly composed himself and said in a serious tone.
boom!
Just as the two were reminiscing about their shared tragic past, Gu Xuan was once again blasted away by A Fu.
Although Afu suppressed his soul power to the Soul Master level, as a Soul Douluo, he had exceptionally rich combat experience. Even using only the Soul Master level soul power, he was still able to overpower Gu Xuan.
The main reason is that Gu Xuan did not use the Dragon Talisman, otherwise this would not have happened.
However, now that he knew where his weaknesses lay, Gu Xuan naturally focused all his efforts on training his close combat skills.
He didn't possess any martial arts skills that he came with from his time travel; he could only rely on some basic combat methods taught by Gu Rong.
In the Douluo Continent, Soul Masters primarily rely on their Martial Souls for combat, and there are no combat techniques similar to martial arts moves that are universally applicable.
Therefore, Gu Xuan could only explore his own techniques through constant battles.
Ah Fu really went all out, basically beating people to death as long as he couldn't kill them.
Not long after, Gu Xuan was injured again.
However, considering the therapeutic effects of the Nine Heart Begonia, Afu did not beat Gu Xuan so badly that he suffered fractures at the slightest provocation, as he had done before.
He can barely stand.
"hiss!"
Gu Xuan rubbed his hands and shook them, his serious expression almost breaking down.
"I really don't feel right without the dog and horse talisman."
Gu Xuan shook his aching arms and wrists; he felt pain all over his body.
hum!
Just then, a beam of green light descended from the sky and enveloped Gu Xuan. Gu Xuan's damaged body was quickly repaired in the light and soon he was completely unharmed.
Gu Xuan turned his head to look at Ye Xinlan, a look of satisfaction flashing in his eyes.
The treatment effect is indeed good, but it should be similar to most martial souls. Although it can quickly repair the body, it cannot perform deep repairs.
Even if the treatment is administered, the patient's lifespan will still be reduced.
In scientific terms, it consumes cell divisions to achieve therapeutic effects, unlike the dog and horse charms, which not only do not consume but also replenish the passively consumed life force.
However, we can only make do with it for now, and we'll have to wait for the dog and horse talismans to return.
After recovering from his injuries, Gu Xuan charged at A Fu once again. With each injury and each slow treatment, Gu Xuan's soul power quickly ran out, and even his physical strength was exhausted.
After being knocked away by Afu once again, he simply lay on the ground and refused to get up.
His chest heaved violently like a blower, and a strong sense of fatigue permeated his entire body.
I want to get rid of this feeling, but I don't have any talismans with me.
Forget it, there are cultivation methods without talismans. Even if the amount of training is reduced and the cultivation progress is affected, the cultivation speed of my innate full soul power is not something that ordinary soul masters can match.
Gu Xuan kept calculating in his mind how to cultivate without talismans.
First of all, the previous wild fighting style is definitely not going to work anymore. Without the dog talisman to bring one's spirit and energy to their peak, it will take time to recover every time one's soul power is exhausted, which will seriously affect the progress of soul power cultivation.
He can't be like Feng Xiaotian, who specializes in only one subject.
While skill training is important, in the end, level determines victory in Douluo Continent.
Therefore, the training in combat and mental strength can be appropriately reduced to free up enough time for cultivating soul power.
Secondly
I'm about to get my third soul ring, so I should prepare in advance, otherwise I might not be able to perfectly unleash the effect of that talisman.
