Chapter 111: The Aromatic Garden (2-in-1 4000 words)
Gu You and Tang San repeatedly confirmed whether there were any dangerous soul beasts in this soul beast forest.
The Soul Hall guard replied, "Kid, don't be afraid, this soul beast forest may be the safest soul beast forest nearby." β
He noticed that the two of them were fully armed, and said with a smile, "Look at your appearance, you two used to go to that kind of very dangerous soul beast forest." β
"Don't be so afraid when you come here, this forest is dominated by plant-based soul beasts and herbivorous soul beasts, although there are also soul beasts with higher dangers, but the highest cultivation is only a hundred years, and the thousand-year-level are all plant-based soul beasts."
"Because there are no powerful soul beasts here, there are almost no poachers, and many soul masters of the first ring can go in and obtain the soul ring alone as long as they prepare antidote drugs."
"You ......" The guard looked at Tang San's normal body shape and Gu You, who was half a head taller than him and had obvious muscles, and said to Gu You: "... Two brothers, you should have a soul ring, as long as you pay attention to it, there will be no danger inside. β
"As an elder brother, you must protect your younger brother."
Hearing this, Gu You almost laughed on the spot, twisted his head to the side, and covered his mouth with his hand.
Tang San looked at the guards in front of him who didn't know what was going on. He also knew that compared to the overnourished guy around him, he would look very thin, but he felt really annoying to inexplicably lower the Gu You generation.
Not knowing what he had said wrong, the guard briefly checked the warrants of the two and let them in.
Unlike the previous swamp-based Soul Beast Forest Resentful Swamp, now this Soul Beast Forest brings Gu You the feeling of walking into a forest park, giving people a sense of security.
The air was filled with the fragrance of flowers, and it was obvious that it was full of all kinds of different flower soul beasts. But the various scents do not clash with each other, but harmonize with each other.
"It's a fairyland." Tang San couldn't help but sigh with emotion, as a person who played with poison and medicine, Tang San's sense of smell habitually distinguished various smells in the air. Previously, in the swamp of resentment, Tang San's nose was a big sin.
"Bay leaves, jasmine, angelica, ylang-ylang, and my target rosemary, the scents of these plants exist in this soul beast forest at the same time without conflict, which can be integrated with a sense of hierarchy and an independent presence, which is really incredible."
"Soul Beast Forest - Aromatic Garden. This is not so much a forest of soul beasts, but rather a private garden for those nobles. β
Gu You pointed to a group of people in the distance, a cloth was spread on the ground, and the young master and young lady sitting on the cloth were eating snacks and singing, surrounded by a dense circle of heavily armed guards.
"The information I have collected shows that the botanical species here, especially the flower soul beasts, have a fragrance that is far more obvious than the same kind of soul beasts in other soul beast forests, so it will have "aroma" in front of it, as a special title. β
"These aromas are said to have the functions of strengthening the body, beautifying the skin, and prolonging life, and the soul beast is not very dangerous, so the nobles regard this place as their own back garden and restrict the entry of civilian soul masters."
Tang San was surprised, "Fragrance still has this function?" β
"......" Gu You looked at Tang San without saying a word, and Tang San also reacted at this time that he had asked a stupid question. It's all related to life force, and it's normal to have these functions.
And in addition to the general ability to enhance vitality, these scents also have their own special abilities. For example, your rosemary, the effect is to improve the combat ability. β
"In addition, according to the current proven information, the fragrance effect of ylang-ylang is to weaken the combat ability, and the fragrance effect of marjoram is to form some kind of armor."
"It's all very good." Tang San recognized the effects that these soul beasts could provide, and said that he wanted it too.
"Not a bad ghost." Gu You complained: "The effect of these soul skills is presented in the form of fragrance, which means that if you can't smell it, it's useless." β
"The only soul master who can use this kind of soul skill is the soul master of the plant-based martial soul. Only your Blue Silver Grass can be massed and combined with the grass field to form a power-up field, or wrap around your teammates to give them a boost. This is something that other plant-based martial spirits can't do. β
"And because the fortification is expressed in the form of an aroma, it will be blown away by the wind. As a result, your entanglement will be used as insurance to keep it strengthened. β
Tang San suddenly realized. Indeed, if the effect needs to be revealed through aroma, then the limitations are indeed great.
Tang San recalled that Gu You had said, "The effect of the soul technique will change according to the characteristics of the martial soul itself. β
So, is it possible that this soul skill effect can be released without the fragrance of flowers?
Tang San asked this question to Gu You.
Gu You thought briefly for a while, and replied seriously: "It is indeed so. But if this soul skill effect is used as an auxiliary, it is the best choice to release it through taste. β
"If the Strong, Sharp, or Control Soul Master obtains this Soul Ring Soul Skill, the effect will change to a solo state. In this case, it is natural that floral notes do not need to appear. β
Tang San understood what Gu You wanted to express, the auxiliary system needed to assist the whole team, so there was a need for a way to increase the influence range of the soul technique. The aroma pervades nature and is one of them.
"What if it's the Seven Treasure Glazed Tower? As the strongest auxiliary martial soul, if you obtain this soul skill, how will the effect be performed? β
Gu You explained: "The Seven Treasure Glazed Pagoda of the Seven Treasure Glazed Glass Sect, as its auxiliary method, is mainly based on beam irradiation, and it needs to be within the line of sight to provide auxiliary effects. β
"Although it is the strongest martial soul in the world as an auxiliary martial spirit. But the downside...... No, it can't be said that the shortcomings are also very obvious. β
"Then this martial soul can only simply strengthen the basic attributes."
"That is to say, the same fragrant rosemary soul ring, your martial soul is a comprehensive increase through life force, and the Seven Treasure Glazed Pagoda will become an attack amplification driven by soul power."
"According to the record, it can only be strengthened by the most basic attributes of strength, speed, speed, attack, defense, and elemental effects. It lacks some specific enhancements or unique enhancements that other auxiliary soul masters will have. β
"Little San, you have to remember that when your Blue Silver Grass decides to develop into the auxiliary system, you are the strongest auxiliary soul master, and there is no one."
"Whether it's a healing soul master, a food soul master, or some other auxiliary soul master. None of them can have as powerful and comprehensive perks as your Blue Silver Grass. β
"There is only one auxiliary soul master based on life force. Whether it's strengthening, healing, or even your Blue Silver Grass can be used as a food-based martial soul in the future. β
"And you, you, will be the most comprehensive and powerful auxiliary soul master ever."
The ancient lobby was impassioned, opening his hands to the sun, as if ready to praise the sun at any time. Tang San next to him just looked at him helplessly with dead fish eyes.
The nobles in the distance seemed to have seen some rare animal, pointing at Gu You, and the sound of talking and laughter reached the ears of the two.
The corners of Tang San's eyes twitched, and his gaze turned to that side faintly.
Noticing Tang San's movements, Gu Youyou hurriedly put his hand on Tang San's shoulder, "Don't be angry, their mouths grow on them, they can say whatever they like." β
"But!" Tang San's eyes still showed irrepressible anger. No matter how naΓ―ve Gu You is, he is also his brother. He can't allow outsiders to laugh at Gu You at will.
"Don't worry, junior, I really don't care about them." Gu You's demeanor is very relaxed, after all, he is a man who can shout "Obaree" in the card store.
"Judging by their appearance, they are definitely not soul masters. We're doing great research right now, and these mocking eyes and words will stay with me until we change the world. β
Seeing that Gu You really didn't seem to care, he was even reassuring himself. Tang San's expression also softened.
He snorted coldly, glared at the nobles over there, and walked towards the forest in the lead. Gu You could only follow quickly and walk into the soul beast forest together.
Although it is now halfway through winter, the aromatic garden is still full of flowers, as if it is still spring. Time seems to stand still here. Only spring lasts here.
Seeing the wonderful ecology here, Tang San didn't have the time to care about what happened just now. Walked to the bush with great interest, took out the instruments placed in the soul guide, carefully picked all kinds of plants that had never been seen before, and sorted them into the soul guide.
Seeing Tang San so serious, Gu You was embarrassed to be lazy, so he had to help collect the seeds of the plant and put them in the backpack behind him. (The soul guide cannot collect living creatures, and the seeds must retain their vitality)
In this way, the two of them picked all kinds of wonderful plants and searched for traces of fragrant rosemary in the forest.
After a day of walking, neither of them was in danger. Although there were carnivorous soul beasts encountered on the way, they were only ten-year soul beasts and did not pose a threat to the two of them. After the ancient tour martial soul possessed the body, he drove the soul beast away without even using the soul technique.
What I saw were more of all kinds of plant-type soul beasts, most of which were at the hundred-year level, and even found a thousand-year-level guard fence among them.
At night, Gu You and Tang San found a calm stream and set up camp, since there were too few active and aggressive soul beasts here, the two of them set up a bonfire and enjoyed this hard-won leisure time.
"Xiao You," Tang San suddenly spoke, "Do we really need to kill soul beasts to obtain soul rings in order to improve our cultivation?" β
Although the current Tang San can barely be said to be a good person, he is by no means a white left. Ever since he entered this forest, which was dominated by plant-based soul beasts, he inexplicably felt like he had gone home.
Affected by this strange feeling, Tang San suddenly had the idea that he didn't want to obtain the soul ring.
Gu You couldn't understand what was going on at all, and it was impossible for Tang San to be a "how dare you".
But this kind of idea is also what Guyou likes to see. After all, like-minded comrades-in-arms are better than helping for the sake of friendship. The future Tang God King and the current Tang San are not the same person.
Gu You still wanted to know how devastating his good brother Tang San would be if he saw that Tang God King.
Gu You hurriedly said: "There must be a way to improve without hunting soul beasts and obtaining soul rings. But with our current capabilities, it is not enough to support us to find a way to replace the soul ring. β
"Whether it's soul power control or spiritual power, we are too weak to know what is in this small circle of soul rings."
"That's why I'm studying martial souls, in order to know what martial souls and soul rings are, and find an alternative method."
Hearing Gu You's words, Tang San didn't know what he was thinking, and quietly looked at the fire burning in front of him. Gu You is not in a hurry, once some seeds are planted, as long as they are watered on time, they will always bear full fruits.
"Smack"
In the silence of the jungle, the sound of tree branches being trampled off is especially noticeable. Gu You and Tang San, who were originally relaxed, immediately entered the battle preparations. Look at the location where the voice came from.
As the sound gets closer and closer. The attention of the two also gradually focused. On Tang San's right hand, blue-green soul power flowed brightly. Gu You's eyes turned golden. Vertical pupils, staring at the location where the voice came from.
I saw an old hand push through the grass, and out came an old woman with white hair.
Seeing the two nervous children in front of her, the old woman smiled and said, "Children, don't be nervous. I brought my granddaughter over to hunt souls. I noticed the light of the fire here, so I came to take a look. β
As she spoke, the old woman beckoned behind her: "Still, come here." It's two kids about your age. β
Then a young girl came out from behind the old woman, about eight or nine years old. He glanced at Tang San and Gu You indifferently, then turned his head away and didn't pay attention to them anymore.
The old woman asked, "Can we rest here with you for the night?" β
Gu You and Tang San glanced at each other. Gu You said, "Of course, please sit down." β
Hearing Gu You's answer, the old woman was not polite, and sat opposite the two across the fire. He beckoned to the girl: "Still sit down." β
Introducing himself to the two: "Mother-in-law, my name is Chaotianxiang, and this is my granddaughter Meng Yi." This time, I came here to help my granddaughter get the soul ring. β
Hearing this name, Gu You's eyes couldn't help but widen and his heart was shocked.
"Chaotian Xiang?!"
Although he heard that the girl in front of him was called "Still", and her visual age was about eight or nine years old, Gu You guessed in his heart whether she would be Meng Yi.
But there are not hundreds of people called "still" on the mainland, but dozens of people, and the two of them don't hold the iconic snake staff in their hands, so Gu You is not easy to judge. In order not to offend people, I can only acquiesce that the person in front of me who is suspected of being a snake woman is a snake woman.
But now she has introduced herself as Chao Tianxiang, and the granddaughter next to her is also called Meng Yi, which is 100% the tool trio in the original book in order to draw out Tang San's secret weapon technique.
Noticing Gu You's suddenly widening eyes and the uncontrollable expression of surprise on his face, Chao Tianxiang was also very surprised.
"Oh? Child, do you know me? β
People can't die if they eat grass...... Probably. Meng is still the age and talent of the two. The goal of 1,000 monthly passes this month has also been achieved, so in order to make me less more, I won't ask for a monthly pass, and I will continue to ask for tickets next month......
