Chapter 128 The Choice of the Second Soul Ring
"Try again."
Without hesitation, Tang Chuan put away his Blue Silver Emperor Martial Soul again and released it once more, limiting the fluctuations of the Flaming Pig Knuckle's characteristics to a small section of Blue Silver Emperor vines.
It can be seen clearly.
On the vine of the Blue Silver Emperor Martial Soul in his hand, a small section was caramel-colored and slightly wrinkled, just like the charred skin of the Flaming Pig Knuckle, while the rest was still azure with golden veins.
"Try it."
Tang Chuan brought the vine to his mouth and smelled it. First, he smelled the herbal fragrance of the Blue Silver Emperor itself, then the charred aroma of Flaming Pork Knuckle and the spiciness mixed with fiery pepper powder. His saliva welled up.
A look of anticipation flashed in Tang Chuan's eyes as he took a bite at the junction of the two flavors.
A crisp snapping sound.
The crisp and tender texture exploded in his mouth, the bitterness of the herbs and the slight astringency of the Blue Silver Emperor appeared on the tip of his tongue, followed by the rich meaty aroma of the Flaming Pork Knuckle and the spiciness of the fiery pepper.
Finally, it had a lingering sweetness with a hint of wild honey.
"Hmm... it tastes pretty good!"
Tang Chuan savored the flavor, noting that the astringent, plant-based notes of the Blue Silver Emperor balanced the greasiness of the Flaming Pork Knuckle, adding layers to the overall taste.
Just like salted egg yolk milk tea.
It was a bit strange, but surprisingly delicious.
The slight astringency of the herbs complemented the rich aroma of the meat, while the salty and savory flavor of the roasted meat masked the bitterness of the herbs, creating a unique taste.
Juice was continuously secreted during chewing.
It had the freshness of Blue Silver Emperor Vine and the savory aroma of Flaming Pork Knuckle. After swallowing, a hint of charred aroma and herbal flavor lingered in the mouth.
"Absolutely amazing!"
Tang Chuan's eyes lit up, and he couldn't help but speed up his chewing, swallowing the vine in his mouth.
"It not only has adhesion properties, but also allows control over the adhesion range."
"Then, is it possible to control the strength of the properties?"
Tang Chuan looked at the remaining Blue Silver Emperor vine in his hand and muttered to himself, "Give it a try!"
With that, Tang Chuan put away his Martial Soul and tried again.
This time, he specifically adjusted and increased the spiciness of the chili peppers on the Flaming Pork Knuckle, while reducing the original meaty aroma of the Flaming Pork Knuckle.
On the Blue Silver Emperor Vine presented in his hand, a section of caramel-colored vine was noticeably dark red.
"It should be successful, right?"
Tang Chuan guessed based on the different color of the vines compared to before, but didn't take a bite to test it, mainly because the spiciness level was a bit high this time, and Tang Chuan wasn't sure if he could handle it.
However, unless you specifically adjust the spiciness, adjusting other flavors won't make a noticeable difference compared to adjusting the spiciness.
"Let's give it our all!"
Tang Chuan severed the dark red Blue Silver Emperor Vine, released his Martial Soul and soul skills again, and made several cups of Dewy Cherry Blossom Iced Tea, placing them beside him.
Both the dew and snow cherry had a refreshing taste.
Double the coolness, perfect for relieving spiciness.
With one bite, the spiciness filled his mouth along the tip of his tongue, and Tang Chuan hissed as his expression changed.
"I was careless!"
"It's fucking spicy!"
Tang Chuan quickly spat out the Blue Silver Emperor Vine with teeth marks on it, grabbed the iced tea bamboo cup next to him, and poured it into his mouth.
It took three cups in a row to dilute the spiciness on his tongue.
He wiped his mouth with the back of his hand, then drank half a cup of Dewy Cherry Blossom Iced Tea before he recovered and a smile appeared on his face.
"Although it was quite spicy, the result was gratifying."
"It really can control the strength of the ingredients' properties!"
"When adjusting the spiciness, the meaty aroma was deliberately reduced, and the color of the vines changed accordingly, indicating that the strength of the characteristics corresponds to the external manifestation."
"Our previous idea about weakening the properties of the Immortal Herb can now be realized."
Tang Chuan sat on the bed with an iced tea in his hand, pondering: "The effects of the Immortal Herb are too strong. Taking it out like this could easily attract unnecessary trouble."
"But a weaker version would work."
"For example, Wang Sheng and Zhao Hu, as well as Dean Notting Academy and Old Jack, have all helped me a lot. Giving them some weakened Immortal Herbs won't be so conspicuous."
Tang Chuan thought of how Old Jack had taken care of his family when he was a child in Holy Soul Village, and how Dean Notting Academy had supported him ever since he enrolled in the Academy. He decided to repay them.
Giving someone the real Immortal Herb wouldn't be good.
After all, the effects of the herb are undeniable; giving it to them could easily attract unnecessary trouble.
"Besides!"
"Since there is a weakened version, there must be an enhanced version."
"I can enhance the properties of Immortal Herbs to the limit; perhaps every Immortal Herb I create will be the king of Immortal Herbs."
"For example, the ability of Longing for Autumn Water Dew can further enhance one's Spiritual strength!"
"What a pity!"
"I'm not sure if it's drug resistance or if the absorption of the Wang Chuan Qiu Shui Lu has reached saturation, so I can't test it myself right now."
"If I were to have an affair..."
After thinking for a moment, Tang Chuan shook his head.
It's not that he was reluctant to part with the Immortal Herb, but rather that he was not yet able to accurately control the strength of the attribute enhancement, or the effects after the attribute enhancement.
Some drugs, even with increased potency, are actually highly toxic.
Tang Chuan currently had no clear control over the effects of the ingredients after their properties changed, and he needed to conduct drug trials to determine the final effect.
"I can't always have to shoulder the burden myself like this time..."
Tang Chuan took a sip of iced tea, rested his left hand on his chin, and pondered how to resolve the situation.
Is it a problem with Spiritual strength?
"I don't think so!"
"My current Spiritual strength is not much different from the Vast Realm that Tang San mentioned in the original work. Even if I really break through to the Vast Realm, I estimate it will be difficult to solve this problem."
"How about using an ingredient guide?"
Tang Chuan recalled that after he used his Martial Soul to devour ingredients, the Ingredients Illustrated Guide in his mind would provide detailed descriptions.
This was not a bad idea.
Tang Chuan released his Martial Soul, creating a section of the extra-spicy Blue Silver Emperor Vine that he had just tasted, and then used Blue Silver Emperor Grass threads to devour it.
"No!"
Seeing that the Ingredients Illustrated Guide in the Sea of Spirit remained unchanged, Tang Chuan shook his head: "The Ingredients Illustrated Guide cannot be recorded repeatedly."
"Or perhaps the ingredient encyclopedia function is inadequate and needs the help of the God of Cookery to upgrade it."
"Maybe!"
Tang Chuan guessed uncertainly, feeling that even if he asked the God of Cookery for help, it wouldn't solve his problem.
He needed to think of another way.
"Originally, I wanted to get a soul skill that could teleport over long distances for my second soul ring."
"Although it overlaps somewhat with the soul bone skill of the Void Illusion Left Arm Bone, as a food-type Martial Soul skill, the soul food created can be used by others, allowing them to teleport long distances..."
"However, we need to make a choice now."
Tang Chuan muttered to himself, his gaze fixed on the window: "With my current physical strength, the lifespan of my second Spirit Ring will probably be around two thousand years."
"Moreover, space teleportation-type soul skills cannot make the second soul ring grow like the first soul ring."
"The time limit can only be locked at two thousand years."
"Unlike the first Spirit Ring, it can't grow to 100,000 years old and obtain a second, complementary, heaven-defying Spirit Skill..."
