“The venom of the hundred-year-old Mandragora Serpent Soul Beast is indeed incredibly potent!”
“After a month of tempering with purple energy, my eyesight has barely recovered to the level of a normal Soul Master!”
As the sky turned a pale white, the purple aura gradually faded away.
Tang San then slowly exhaled a breath of stale air.
When he opened his eyes again, a deep purple glint flashed in them.
Tang San greedily scanned the dust motes drifting between heaven and earth.
However, before Tang San could even feel happy, his vision was once again shrouded in a thin layer of gray mist.
The effects of datura snake venom splashing into the eyes cannot be completely eliminated.
With a sigh of dejection, Tang San jumped off the roof.
It has been almost a month since that Soul Hunt ended.
Because the snake venom in Yu Xiaogang’s body had penetrated deep into his bone marrow, it was incurable.
Six-year-old Tang San could only endure the stinging pain in his eyes and carry Yu Xiaogang out of the Soul Hunter Forest alone to seek medical treatment in the Soul Master Town on the outskirts of the forest.
Unlike the Spirit Hall, which helps people awaken their spirits for free, the healing-type spirit masters who reside in the Spirit Master Town charge exorbitant fees!
With nothing to his name, Tang San had no extra gold soul coins to treat his illness, so he had to sell his storage soul tools.
“If my eyes hadn’t been splattered with venom and I hadn’t been blinded, I wouldn’t have had to sell the Twenty-Four Bridges Under the Moon!”
Thinking about this made Tang San feel aggrieved.
He had only had the storage soul tool for less than three days, barely had time to enjoy it, before he had to sell it.
You have to understand that all his hidden weapons were stored in the Twenty-Four Bridges Under the Moonlit Night.
Without this storage soul tool, how could he possibly store so many hidden weapons on his person?
Finally, Tang San destroyed some of the hidden weapons on the spot to prevent others from picking them up and coveting his Tang Clan’s unique skills.
Despite Tang San sacrificing many things, the treatment effect was still far from ideal.
If you activate the Purple Demon Eye for more than half an incense stick’s time, your eyes will be covered with a thin layer of gray mist.
Even though Tang San had closed his Purple Demon Eye, his vision was still obscured by that layer of gray mist!
If you want to recover, you must close your eyes and rest.
However, this made even daily cultivation of the Purple Demon Eyes difficult.
Does this mean I have to give up this eye-training technique from now on?
“No, I have other opportunities!”
“Xu Yuan’s Wishing Tree Martial Soul has the ability to make people’s wishes come true!”
“If it allows me to continue cultivating the Purple Demon Eye, what does it matter if I have to pay a price!”
A flame of hope rekindled in Tang San’s eyes.
He returned to the private ward of the clinic and saw Yu Xiaogang, who was sitting in a wheelchair, revising his theoretical knowledge.
“Little San, I’ve figured out exactly what happened in the Soul Hunter Forest!”
“This is an extremely terrifying plant-type soul beast. It not only possesses extremely strong neurotoxins, but also has a particularly terrifying parasitic ability.”
“If your Blue Silver Grass absorbs it as its second soul ring, there’s a chance you’ll gain a parasitic soul skill!”
“It can also imbue your Blue Silver Grass with the neurotoxin of Ghost Vine, thereby compensating for the Blue Silver Grass’s weaknesses!”
“At that time, your Blue Silver Grass Martial Soul will possess the resilience of the Swamp Venomous Serpent and the terrifying venom of the Ghost Vine!”
“A Soul Master whose Soul Power level is no more than ten levels above yours cannot break free from your Blue Silver Grass restraints!”
Yu Xiaogang’s voice was excited, and his eyes were practically shining.
This is practically the perfect second spirit ring prepared for Tang San.
Even the usually composed Tang San was stirred to excitement.
but…
“Teacher, it should be difficult for the two of us to hunt down that ghost vine that is at least six hundred years old, right?”
The four-hundred-year-old Mandragora Serpent almost wiped out the master and disciple, let alone a six-hundred-year-old Soul Beast!
“Ha ha ha ha…”
“You don’t need to worry too much about that, mistress.”
“This failed soul hunt was due to my overconfidence, but for the next one, I will ask the Dean of Notting Academy to help!”
“Don’t believe those rumors outside. Do you really think that your teacher hasn’t cultivated his own connections at Notting College?”
Yu Xiaogang revealed a confident expression, and his aloof attitude immediately stirred Tang San’s mind.
“Teacher, you mean…”
“Hmph, your teacher is the creator of the theory of the ten core competencies of martial souls. The entire soul master world respects me as a master!”
“The reason I ignored those teachers and students is simply because they were too ordinary and not worth my acquaintance!”
“Only the dean of Notting Academy, who is a level 42 Soul Master, is barely worthy of my guidance!”
A level 42 Soul Master?
Tang San’s eyes widened and his mouth gaped open.
He hadn’t expected his teacher to have such extensive connections.
Even more unexpectedly, a level 42 Soul Master asked for guidance, but the teacher felt that he was only barely worthy of his attention.
“Hehe, mistress, don’t be so surprised!”
“Back when I was venturing across the continent alone, I was always accompanied by Soul Saints of level 70 or above!”
“If it weren’t for…”
A hint of melancholy appeared in Yu Xiaogang’s eyes, as if he had thought of something on his mind, and he stopped talking.
Even so, it was enough to shock Tang San.
A level 70 Soul Saint!
Isn’t that the legend of Holy Soul Village that Old Jack always talks about? New chapters come out on g.com first.
“In short, there’s nothing surprising about a level 40 Soul Master!”
“With my guidance, you will surely surpass the Soul Master, surpass the Soul Saint, and become a Title Douluo!”
Yu Xiaogang wheeled himself to Tang San, grabbed his shoulders tightly with both hands, and spoke with an extremely firm tone!
“Teacher, I won’t let you down!”
Although his first attempt at the Soul Hunt was far from ideal, Tang San was still won over by Yu Xiaogang’s promise.
After all, the teacher is a master of theory.
Asking him to accompany you in the Soul Hunting is like using a sledgehammer to crack a nut!
“Good, that’s my good disciple!”
Yu Xiaogang chuckled and patted Tang San on the shoulder, “In that case, we should head back!”
“But teacher, your legs…”
Yu Xiaogang’s face twitched suddenly, and an unnatural look flashed in his eyes.
“It’s nothing, just a little bit of hardship!”
“That healing-type Soul Master said that I only need to rest quietly for a month, and I will be able to stand up again.”
Yu Xiaogang said, trying to sound strong.
Upon hearing this, Tang San gave him a deep look.
As an outer disciple of the Tang Clan in his previous life, Tang San dealt with poison every day, so how could he not know what was going on?
Having been poisoned by datura snake venom for so long, the toxins would have already surged up the bloodstream.
Even though he dealt with it in time and prevented the toxins from affecting his heart, there was nothing he could do about the toxins in his lower body.
In addition, the wound from the datura snake bite was located above the thigh…
Tang San didn’t dare to think any further, otherwise it would be too tragic.
“Why don’t we talk to the teacher about Xu Yuan’s Wishing Tree Martial Soul first? Maybe it can help the teacher recover.”
This thought suddenly popped into Tang San’s mind.
So far, only four people have used the Wishing Tree Martial Soul ability!
All three of these statements were made by Xu Yuan himself, and their veracity remains to be seen.
Only Xiao Wu made her wish in front of everyone.
But it’s unclear what price she paid.
If only I could get the teacher to go and scout things out for me first…
“No, Tang San! Tang San! You’re really confused!”
“What does it mean to have your teacher pave the way for you?!”
“I only told him this out of concern for my teacher’s happiness in his later years; this is the ultimate act of filial piety!”
