Seeing that Dugu Bo didn't even bother to open his eyes, Tianlin said helplessly, "I say, Old Monster, aren't you being a bit too leisurely? Don't tell me you're really planning to retire now? You're not even ninety years old yet. As a Titled Douluo, after your poison is cured, you should be able to live for at least two hundred years. Are you really planning to spend the rest of those years on a reclining chair?"
"Haaah!" Dugu Bo stretched and yawned, then said, "Didn't you say you were going to take care of my retirement? I find this kind of life quite good. The environment is so nice, I eat and sleep every day, and when I have time, I cultivate my soul power. I don't have to worry about the poison in my body acting up, nor do I have to worry about those Spirit Hall guys coming to make trouble for me. It's just too comfortable."
"But if you keep going like this, I'm afraid your body will rust. You still need to move around when you should," Tianlin earnestly advised.
"This old man doesn't rely on his body to fight. What does it matter if I rust? Anyway, my poison is getting stronger day by day," Dugu Bo said dismissively.
Tianlin knew that this guy wasn't lying, because in these three years, Tianlin had transcribed the Medicine Refining chapter from his Shu Mountain Treasure Record and given it to him. Dugu Bo, having nothing better to do, researched various poisonous herbs. Now his Wishful Hundred Treasure Pouch had been divided into two layers. Besides the Snow-Colored Swan Kiss, his trump card, pressed at the very bottom of the second layer, the first layer had at least a dozen different kinds of poisonous herbs.
These poisonous herbs not only contained extremely strong toxins themselves, but could also fuse with his Jade Scale Serpent Emperor poison, producing various terrifying poisons. Although his level hadn't increased in these years, his combat power had at least doubled. If he were to fight against the Chrysanthemum and Ghost Douluos again, they would definitely not be able to win against Dugu Bo's endless stream of poisons.
"Forget it, do as you please!" Tianlin shook his head and ignored him, walking into the Pill Refining Room.
At this moment, Dugu Bo opened his eyes, looked at Tianlin's departing back, and muttered, "That Little Monster's soul power has improved again. He really is an extraordinary monster. I originally thought he would be hindered by that extreme attribute, but I didn't expect him to still surpass most geniuses."
The speed of Tianlin's soul power progress was so fast, thanks to Dugu Bo giving him the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well. The ice and fire attributes there were too strong, which greatly compensated for Tianlin's slow cultivation due to his extreme attribute.
Tianlin now only spends half a month in the Academy each month, and the rest of the time he stays in the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well meditating and cultivating. There is a Poison Array set up by Dugu Bo, and no Soul Beasts or other people disturb him. It is truly a treasure land for cultivation.
Even when he returns to the Academy, he also uses the Heaven Snow Power with Xue Qinghe to assist in his cultivation, and the speed is not slow at all.
As for why he doesn't just rely on the Heaven Snow Power to cultivate every day, it's really because Tianlin doesn't want to empower his enemy too much. Qian Renxue's cultivation speed is really too terrifying. She has innate level twenty soul power, and no extreme attribute to hinder her. Tianlin has long discovered that since cultivating the Heaven Snow Power, her true level is already close to Soul Sage.
If this continues, I'm afraid that by the time she officially appears in the original story, she will have become a genuine Soul Douluo. How will I be able to defeat her then?
However, in these years, Xue Qinghe has really been extremely good to Tianlin. Even if she is busy as the crown prince, she will always take the time to see him, or send some Pills to assist in cultivation, or some precious Soul Tools, and even a lot of information about Soul Beasts with attributes.
Unconsciously, Tianlin already owes her a lot of favors, which makes Tianlin a little embarrassed. If he continues to owe her like this, not to mention whether he can defeat her in the future, whether he can bring himself to do it is still a question.
Whenever he thinks of this, Tianlin always hopes that there is some way to repay her favor, even if it means empowering his enemy. Tianlin is not a good person, but his bottom line is that he cannot be ungrateful. Even if he has to fight Qian Renxue to the death in the future, he must first repay her for everything he owes her.
Tianlin walked into the Medicine Refining Hall, and several disciples immediately greeted him, "Greetings, Young Master."
These people are all disciples of the Medicine Refining Hall, all Soul Masters with not very strong strength. Originally, they could only be gatekeepers, but Tianlin discovered them and taught them the knowledge of medicine refining, making them important figures in the sect. Therefore, these people are all extremely grateful and respectful to Tianlin.
Tianlin nodded, "Well, everyone, since I will be returning to Heaven Dou Royal Academy tomorrow, I need to trouble you to refine several kinds of Pills for me, and then send someone to deliver them."
"Please give your orders, Young Master." They would never refuse Tianlin's orders.
"One Xuan Yuan Pill, one bottle of Ice Soul Pill, one bottle of Breath Concealing Pill, and a few Soul Nourishing Pills. How long will you need?" Tianlin asked.
They discussed it and replied, "Reporting to Young Master, except for the Xuan Yuan Pill which will take a little effort, the rest of these Pills are very simple. Within half a month, we guarantee to complete them and send them to you, Young Master."
"Half a month, that's about right." Tianlin thought for a while and agreed, "Okay, then I'll wait for your news. Thank you, everyone!"
"Young Master is too polite. It is our honor to serve you," the disciples of the Medicine Hall said in fear. Sometimes Tianlin is too polite to them, which makes them feel unreal.
Tianlin is not refining these Pills for himself, but to give to some of the Shrek Seven Devils. As long as they are willing to follow him and join the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School, not to mention a few ordinary Pills, Tianlin would not hesitate to refine even immortal-grade divine Pills for them.
Of course, if they don't join, then Tianlin won't give them a single chicken feather.
In addition, Tang San has a lot of good things, and he wants to try his best to swindle them over.
On the other side, Ning Rongrong, who left the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School, was like a wild horse that had broken free. It was her first time coming to the outside world, looking around and feeling extremely excited.
The jealousy she had felt because of Tianlin had already been completely forgotten at this moment.
"This little princess really has the mind of a little girl!" Yin Yang in the dark smiled and shook his head. How long has it been since she came out? Not to mention Ning Fengzhi and others, even her favorite Sword Brother on weekdays has probably been forgotten.
Buy, buy, buy, this was the thing Ning Rongrong did the most along the way. Anyway, she had money and a Soul Tool for storage, so she didn't let go of any strange things, not caring how much she bought.
Of course, such a beautiful little girl, plus being rich, naturally attracted the attention of many villains, but with the Titled Douluo Yin Yang secretly protecting her, they were all killed by Yin Yang before they could even make a move.
And so, Ning Rongrong arrived at the legendary Shrek Academy 'with narrow escapes'.
"No way, this is the Shrek Academy that Sword Brother mentioned? I feel like my family's cafeteria is more luxurious than this!" Looking at the dilapidated Academy gate, Ning Rongrong sighed inwardly. Could such a broken Academy really produce talents comparable to Sword Brother and the Spirit Hall's Golden Generation? You must know, they are all monsters among monsters. Not to mention defeating them, it would be difficult to find anyone in the younger generation who could even come close to them.
