Chapter 37: Not Benefiting From It
When Gu Xuan woke up, it was already getting dark.
He was soaking in a huge wooden tub, the clear, warm water of which shimmered with a faint greenish hue.
Gu Xuan opened his eyes, and what he saw was the medicinal bath that was almost completely clear.
This was the first time he had ever experienced something like this.
He didn't feel much, but these green powers would gradually seep into his body with each breath, making him feel warm and comfortable.
Sensing that it was a good thing, Gu Xuan didn't hesitate and immediately started meditating to absorb the green energy in the bucket.
Under his conscious absorption, the water in the bucket turned completely clear in less than a minute.
He felt incredibly comfortable and warm all over.
It felt like I had activated a dog charm.
Gu Xuan stood up, directly from the tub, and the sound of running water arose.
With the support of level 26 soul power, his six-year-old body looked no different from that of a ten-year-old boy. Not a single muscle on his body was superfluous, and he was so perfect that it was unbelievable.
"Young Master, you're awake. I've placed your clothes next to the bathtub; you can take a shower."
Afu's voice came from outside.
Gu Rong had specifically instructed A Fu not to interfere in Gu Xuan's daily life.
So, to avoid embarrassment, after preparing the medicinal bath for Gu Xuan and putting it in, he left the room and busied himself preparing dinner for Gu Xuan again.
There's no need to worry about Gu Xuan missing lunch; with the medicinal bath, he won't lack any nutrition.
"Old Fu, what's that stuff I made today? I've never seen it before."
After taking a shower and changing his clothes, Gu Xuan walked out of the room, looking like a refined and gentle gentleman, unparalleled in the world.
He watched as Afu inquired about the medicinal bath.
"Young Master, that thing is a real treasure. You've heard of ten-thousand-year-old plant-type soul beasts, right?"
As Afu served food to Gu Xuan, she explained to him.
"Generally, plant-type soul beasts have a small chance of giving birth to a rare treasure like a tree heart after ten thousand years."
The liquid you used for your bath today was diluted from a small section of the medicinal heartwood.
It can repair a Soul Master's body, enhance their blood and qi, and boost their life energy; in short, it has a very powerful foundational effect.
The harvest from this stuff isn't much each year, and I haven't seen anyone qualified to use it over the years. It was only last night that His Majesty Bone Douluo gave it to me.
Ah Fu spoke cautiously, as if afraid that someone would find out about this.
The drop rate for this item is similar to that of Soul Bones, but it doesn't have the same effect as Soul Bones, which can enhance cultivation and grant Soul Skills.
However, it can lay a good foundation for a Soul Master, so the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School often buys them. Unfortunately, they are rare commodities, and even the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School doesn't have many.
Although the soul bone is to be invested in Ning Rongrong this time, since Chen Xin has already said that the resources are biased, it is time to take out these tree hearts that have been stored for many years.
This stuff has a similar effect to whale gel, but it's much gentler.
The prices of the two are worlds apart.
Gu Xuan paused for a moment, then continued picking up food.
He understood Ning Fengzhi and also admired Ning Fengzhi's actions to some extent.
Ning Fengzhi's ability to win people over is obvious. He uses open tactics to make you gradually receive his favors until you eventually develop feelings for him.
Yet, he was extremely measured in his actions.
Otherwise, Gu Rong, who was still feeling unwell yesterday, wouldn't have followed Ning Fengzhi out so eagerly today.
However, although Gu Xuan was willing to accept the sugar coating, he had no intention of swallowing the cannonball as well.
He could keep it for now, and return it whenever the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School offended him, or maintain the status quo until he put it down.
With dog and horse talismans, these resources were dispensable to him; they could achieve the desired effect with a little training, so there was no need to waste them.
Gu Rong understood this, but for Gu Rong, it was also Ning Fengzhi's attitude.
"Don't give me these things anymore, they're not very useful to me, but I should still collect what I'm entitled to. After I collect them, I should find a place to put them so they don't get lost."
Gu Xuan thought about it and decided not to use the resources Ning Fengzhi had given him, to avoid being at a moral disadvantage if conflicts arose between them in the future.
He can accept other resources with a clear conscience because he is using Gu Rong's quota.
A titled Douluo doesn't have that many resources to use, so it's normal for the sect to reward its descendants for serving the sect.
But it's different when Ning Fengzhi uses valuable resources; he doesn't want to owe Ning Fengzhi a favor.
"Yes, young master."
Afu was taken aback, but immediately realized that his young master's recovery methods, which were practically divine, were indeed difficult to replicate with the ten-thousand-year-old tree heart.
"Young Master, this is your quota for this month. You should keep it safe."
I'll pick it up every month and bring it to you.
Afu took out a box and handed it to Gu Xuan.
He wasn't stupid; he could tell that Gu Xuan didn't want too much involvement with the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School.
Indeed, he had heard some rumors even when he was out recently, and Ning Fengzhi's actions were indeed somewhat heartbreaking.
It can only mean that the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School owes Gu Rong a debt of gratitude; otherwise, given his way of handling things, Gu Rong would have left with Gu Xuan long ago.
His young master possesses extraordinary talent and is a potential future Limit Douluo.
How could I possibly be bought off by these small favors?
"OK."
Gu Xuan nodded, and seeing that Afu should understand his meaning, he didn't say anything more.
If he does a good job, then it wouldn't be unreasonable to help him break through to the Title Douluo level in the future.
After dinner, Gu Xuan stretched and then began meditating on his soul power.
First, he used the dog and horse talisman to bring his body to its peak condition, and then he closed his eyes and focused on cultivation.
With the blessing of the two great talismans, Gu Xuan's speed of absorbing the energy of heaven and earth far surpassed that of most other soul masters of the same level. One night of cultivation was equivalent to at least three or four days of cultivation for other soul masters, making him three or four times more efficient than them.
Therefore, their improvement speed was naturally three or four times faster than theirs, or even faster.
This is something I never experienced when I used the dog charm alone before.
After all, absorbing soul power for a long time will cause the meridians to swell and ache, but now the moment you feel a little pain, it will be instantly repaired.
It's simply the perfect combination for cultivation.
Ning Fengzhi went to great lengths to obtain enough soul bones.
The first stop was the Blue Lightning Tyrannosaurus Rex family. The Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School had several soul bones suitable for Gu Xuan, and they were also suitable for the Blue Lightning Tyrannosaurus Rex. Although their attributes did not match, they were still dragon-type soul bones.
This kind of good stuff is so valuable that people would probably fight over it just by knowing a little bit about it, let alone exchanging it.
It was precisely because of these two fire-attribute dragon soul bones that the entire Blue Lightning Tyrannosaurus Rex clan fell into a state of solemnity.
