Soul Land IV (Douluo Dalu) : Ultimate Fighting - Chapter 797

797 – Treasure Master’s Might

“I understand, thank you Senior.” Lan Xuanyu said respectfully.

It wouldn’t be a bad thing to be able to come here when breaking through his bottleneck. With the help of Chaos Water, it would be much easier for him to break through. At the very least, he could guarantee that he would have enough energy to improve himself. Er Ming took a deep look at the Treasure Seeking Beast and said to Lan Xuanyu, “You have to pay attention to this fella too. I understand now that it is able to refine some extraordinary things and even help you absorb them faster. But its method is equivalent to draining the pond to catch the fish. It doesn’t care if you use up too much energy or not. If you forcefully refine it, you will only take the most essential part. After the essence is taken away, a huge chunk of energy will dissipate. Just like all of you here, if you were able to absorb one ten-thousandth of a planet’s energy, you would have broken through to the rank of a Titled Douluo many times. But your improvement was far from that, because one ten-thousandth of its energy was wasted, and in fact, what you absorbed was probably not even a hundred millionth of it. “

The Treasure Seeking Beast said disdainfully,” So what if I’m taking its essence and discarding the impurities? Of course, my master should only absorb the essence, so those impurities will naturally have to be abandoned. Don’t think that all of you are at a disadvantage. Look at the surrounding seedbed and feel the changes. “Er Ming was stunned and instinctively looked around. With one look, he realized that something was wrong.

Previously, his attention was completely focused on the Ice And Fire Yin Yang Well and didn’t notice the plants here. At this moment, he realized that the various plants around the Ice And Fire Yin Yang Well were much taller than before and their life energy was clearly much denser.

The Treasure Seeking Beast looked at Er Ming with disdain and said, “What do you know about killing a pond to catch a fish? This is called distributed nourishment. One should absorb a level of energy akin to its level. Do you think that the strongest energy for ordinary spiritual plants is the best for them? That would definitely accelerate their growth and even allow them to mature instantly, but in fact, this is truly a waste of energy. While I was refining the Chaos Water for my master to nourish his body, the excess energy was released here. The Chaos Aura allowed the plants in your seedbed to save at least 1,000 years of growth. And you still have the cheek to say that I’m blind. My master only absorbed a small portion of the energy, but the remaining life energy was all on these plants. So, overall, the life energy on the planet didn’t decrease much. I was merely helping you to concentrate that 10000th of life energy here.

“Initially, when Master was cultivating here, I planned to pay you the fees by helping you upgrade the surrounding spiritual herbs and life energy. Since you think this is killing the goose that laid the golden eggs, then forget it. Let’s not work together in the future and split up. Master, let’s go to another planet. As long as there is a life source, I will find a similar place for you to cultivate. Hmph hmph, you don’t know how to appreciate a good person’s heart. You’ve wasted so much of my energy.”

Er Ming was somewhat stunned when he heard the Treasure Seeking Beast’s words. The key was that he released his Divine Sense and sensed it carefully. It was really the case! The overall strength of life here had increased greatly and all the Heaven and Earth treasures were growing rapidly.

There was no doubt that this was a great thing for the soul beasts of the Senluo Planet. Lan Xuan was a little surprised, but he immediately understood. This Treasure Seeking Beast was in charge of the seedbed for the Dragon God. If it really only knew how to drain the pond to catch the fish, how could it sit in that position?

Er Ming’s expression changed continuously. Lan Xuanyu smiled and said, “Senior, look at this…” Er Ming’s face turned green and red. He coughed and said, “Treasure Master, why didn’t you say so earlier?“

“You’re a god rank powerhouse with Divine Sense, yet you couldn’t even notice such an obvious situation. You even questioned us and forbade my master from cultivating.”

Er Ming said awkwardly, “Yes, I was wrong. Master Bao, this is a misunderstanding. Why don’t you guys continue cultivating? After the Heaven and Earth treasures here ripen, I’ll harvest them and they can grow back, right?” The Treasure Seeking Beast said indifferently, “We won’t train anymore. Let’s change locations. This place doesn’t want Master, so there will be another place for Master to stay. Master, let’s go.”

Er Ming said in an annoyed tone, “That’s enough. Other than me, where else can you find an Ice And Fire Yin Yang Well other than the Tang Sect? It is a place of absolute martial law. Unless one contributes greatly to the Tang Sect, it is impossible to enter. This place was open to him because of Xuanyu’s bloodline. Do you think I don’t know that not any planet can give birth to such a strong life source? How would you find that? If you had the ability, how would you have exhausted your Divine Sense and be on the verge of death.”

The Treasure Seeking Beast widened its eyes and was about to say something when Lan Xuanyu stopped it.

“Senior Er Ming, I’m sorry. I will persuade it properly. Don’t worry, as long as you agree, we will naturally be willing to cultivate here. You only allowed me to stay for my own good. Xuanyu will never forget this kindness.”

Er Ming’s expression became much better, but the Treasure Seeking Beast said, “Master, we can’t cultivate anymore. This place is still fake after all. We have already converted most of the accumulated energy. To prevent it from breaking its roots, we will need at least to give it a few months to recover. We can come back when it recovers.”

Er Ming blurted out, “Didn’t you say that it would recover in a few days?”

The Treasure Seeking Beast then said, “I was just saying, can’t I ? Otherwise, were you really thinking that so many spiritual herbs could mature in such a short period of time?”

Er Ming furrowed his brows. “What is the best course of action then ?“

“It’s simple ! We will come back to cultivate when this place is fully recovered and help you guys cultivate more spiritual herbs. Not all spiritual herbs must be over 100,000 years old. With me around, I can suppress them and allow them to be in a state where they have yet to gain sentience. Hurry up and pick them. Also, different spiritual plants need to be harvested using different methods. I can teach you this and tell you how long it takes to harvest all sorts of spiritual plants. It can be considered an exchange for my master’s qualifications to cultivate here. However, after the spiritual herbs are harvested, a considerable amount of life force would have left this planet. You guys can think about how to resolve this problem. With so many spiritual herbs, it is enough for you guys to nurture even more powerful soul beasts.”

Er Ming nodded his head slightly. “That works too.”

“Alright,” the Treasure Seeking Beast agreed readily this time. “But I have to choose some to bring away for my master and me to use to replenish our own consumption. This isn’t too much, right ?”

Er Ming said, “Three, no more. I know you will definitely choose the best of the best.”

“Deal”, the Treasure Seeking Beast smiled as he spoke.

Er Ming was filled with regret. It seemed like he had been too generous. This conman was truly difficult to deal with, but he had to admit that with the help of the Treasure Seeking Beast, the Ice And Fire Yin Yang Well would become too useful. In the past, they didn’t know how long it would take for them to obtain a mature Heaven and Earth treasure, and they might not have picked it at the optimal time. The knowledge of the Heaven and Earth treasures brought by the Treasure Seeking Beast was very helpful to them.

After asking around, Lan Xuanyu found out that they had been cultivating here for 11 days. After that, he decided to stay in peace and meditate alone to digest and absorb the harvest this time while feeling the changes of his body.

Er Ming obviously wouldn’t be in charge of collecting the Heaven and Earth treasures personally. He asked the 10,000-year Golden Lion Tiger Jin Ni, who had the Golden Bloodline, to learn from the Treasure Seeking Beast. The Golden Lion Tiger was extremely intelligent and was also the heir of Senluo Planet that Er Ming had selected. She would follow the Treasure Seeking Beast to pick the Heaven and Earth treasures every day and record the maturity period of the various Heaven and Earth treasures. On the other side, Er Ming stayed and guided Lan Xuanyu and Qian Lei in their cultivation.

Er Ming was the representative of strength-type soul beasts, and he was definitely a top-notch master in terms of control and usage of strength. Under his guidance, Lan Xuanyu and Qian Lei had made huge improvements in their usage of strength, especially Lan Xuanyu. After experiencing the Ice and Fire Golden Body Tempering this time, his strength had increased greatly and it was difficult for him to control his own body. With Er Ming’s guidance and the use of suitable cultivation methods, another five days passed in the blink of an eye. Lan Xuanyu relearned how to control his own body and his speed of improvement was truly akin to a thousand miles every day. He also had a comprehensive understanding of his harvest.

“Alright, from today onwards, I’ll teach all of you my ultimate skills.” Er Ming walked over. He was in a better mood these few days because Jin Ni had harvested over a hundred mature spiritual herbs. With so many spiritual herbs, Jin Ni would be able to grow to the 100,000-year level very soon and become a true expert.

“Senior, what are your ultimate skills ?” Qian Lei asked excitedly.

Er Ming raised his hand and pounded his chest. “Titan Divine Fist !”
