Chapter 158 Distribution of Immortal Herbs and Soul Bones
With the conclusion of the Soul Master Competition, the teams from the Tiandou region returned to Tiandou City along with Crown Prince Xue Qinghe and his five hundred guards.
As for the soul bones, Yang Podi kept them all. No one knew how they were distributed. Yang Podi himself didn't want to distribute the soul bones so quickly; he wanted to discuss it after returning to the Po Clan.
The journey back to Heaven Dou City was remarkably safe; there wasn't even anyone to bother them. Everyone knew that the champion of the Soul Master Competition possessed three high-level soul bones, but no one dared to make a move. After all, the team included three Title Douluos: Yang Wudi, Niu Gao, and Poison Douluo. Anyone who dared to rob them would be courting death.
After returning to Tiandou City, the group did not go back to Tiandou Royal Academy, but went directly to Tiandou Imperial Palace.
Inside the Heaven Dou Imperial Palace, Emperor Xue Ye seemed exceptionally high-spirited. In this continent-wide elite competition for advanced soul master academies, the Heaven Dou Royal Academy had swept the top two spots, an unprecedented honor.
To welcome all the participating teams, a grand ceremony was held in the imperial palace, which was attended by almost all the high-ranking officials of the Heavenly Dou Empire.
In the end, all the participating teams accepted the titles bestowed by Emperor Xueye. As Emperor Xueye had previously stated, since Team Tiandou II won the championship, their titles could be raised by one level.
Unexpectedly, Emperor Xueye directly conferred the title of Marquis upon Yang Podi, and because he won the Soul Master Competition, he was given the title of Champion Marquis, with his fiefdom being Mount Almo. Moreover, it was not just Mount Almo, but also included a range of nearly 300 kilometers around Mount Almo.
In terms of fiefdom area, Yang Podi is the marquis with the largest fiefdom in the entire Tiandou Empire. It should be noted that the entire Barak Kingdom is only a thousand square kilometers in size, and that is the largest kingdom in the Tiandou region. Some small duchies are even smaller than the fiefdom of Yang Podi.
Yang Ping'an was granted the title of Earl, while the rest of the team members were all made Viscounts. All of their fiefs were located near Mount Almo. Yang Podi became the youngest inaugural Marquis, Yang Ping'an the youngest Earl, and Yang Tianyue the youngest Viscount. Even substitutes Yang Yuxuan and Niu Kui were granted the title of Viscount.
In addition, everyone was given a mansion in the Tiandou City area.
After the ceremony, all the members of the Tiandou Second Team applied to Crown Prince Xue Qinghe for graduation. After some communication, Xue Qinghe finally agreed. However, although Yang Tianyue had already graduated, she was still listed as a Tiandou-level student, which was considered as preparation for the future, since Yang Tianyue was only thirteen years old at the time.
Next, the entire group arrived at the Broken Clan.
Inside the secret chamber of the Po Clan, a number of people had gathered. The older generation included Yang Wudi, Yang Wushuang, Niu Gao, and Poison Douluo; the middle-aged generation included Yang Zhentian, Niu Jinfeng, and Niu Mang; and the younger generation included Yang Podi, Yang Ping'an, Yang Tianyue, Niu Meng, and Dugu Yan. Ye Lingling was not present for the time being.
Yang Wudi addressed the crowd solemnly: "Today's matter is of great importance, and none of you may divulge it, or the consequences will be extremely severe."
Seeing that everyone nodded, Yang Wudi said to Yang Podi, "Podi, you'll handle things today."
Yang Podi nodded, then took out a number of items from his person.
The first thing Yang Podi took out were the three soul bones he had obtained in the Soul Master Competition. After thinking carefully, he handed the left leg bone for extremely fast flight to Yang Ping'an: "Ping'an, your attack power is not bad. With this left leg bone, your attack power should be even stronger."
Immediately afterwards, Yang Podi handed the red, blazing right arm soul bone to Niu Meng: "Cousin, actually this speed soul bone is also very suitable for you. Your speed is still a bit slow, but your defense is good. Your attack is relatively weak, so this blazing right arm soul bone will increase your attack power."
Upon hearing this, Niu Meng accepted the red soul bone.
As for this spiritual head bone, which is over 60,000 years old, Yang Podi gave it to Yang Tianyue: "Tianyue, you have good aptitude. With this top-grade head bone, your future development should be even better."
Yang Podi glanced at Dugu Yan and Dugu Bo beside him, and couldn't help but sigh. Then he took out another soul bone from his soul tool. This soul bone was the Eight Spider Soul Bone that he had obtained from the Star Dou Great Forest.
Yang Podi handed it to Dugu Yan: "This is an external soul bone, taken from the Human-Faced Demon Pearl from about two thousand years ago. It is also poisonous, and it is very suitable for your martial soul, the Jade Phosphorous Serpent. Its power should increase in the future."
Everyone present was stunned when they saw the soul bone. They never expected that Yang Podi would have hidden an external soul bone. This soul bone was probably worth as much as a 100,000-year-old soul bone.
Dugu Bo and Dugu Yan, in particular, stared intently at the soul bone, as if it were emanating an irresistible allure.
Yang Podi interrupted their gaze, and with a half-smile, said to Dugu Bo, "Grandpa Dugu, this soul bone is for Sister Yan. You wouldn't be trying to steal it, would you?"
Dugu Bo's face flushed slightly, and he said, seemingly a little angry, "Little monster, do you think I'm the kind of person who would steal from my own granddaughter? But you'd better think it over carefully. This soul bone is far too valuable. Are you sure you want to give it to Yanyan?"
Yang Podi shook his head: "Among our group of people, only Sister Yan is a poison-attribute soul master. None of the others are quite suitable."
Just when everyone thought the matter was over, Yang Podi continued, "What follows is extremely important, concerning the life and death of our families. I hope everyone will keep this a secret."
After Yang Podi finished speaking, he took out several jade boxes from his person and prepared to hand them to the people around him.
However, before Yang Podi could even make a move, his two grandfathers snatched it away. They even couldn't help but say, "Podi, we knew you were hiding something. You've finally brought it out today."
Yang Podi looked at his two grandfathers speechlessly: "Grandpa, this is for them, you're not trying to take it, are you?"
Grandpa Yang Wudi couldn't help but speak up: "What are you trying to steal? How could I possibly steal from a child? I just want to know what you've been hiding."
Next, the two opened the first jade box. Inside was a plant that looked quite nice. The most eye-catching thing about this plant was a golden fruit at its tip, which seemed to contain a mysterious power.
Yang Wudi and Yang Wushuang examined the jade box carefully for a while before handing it to Niu Meng: "Little Meng, this is the Vajra Arhat Fruit. It is said that after eating it, you can greatly increase your physical fitness and possess the power of the Vajra Arhat. Your physical fitness and defense will be even stronger in the future."
Then, the two opened another jade box, inside which was a huge Ganoderma lucidum. The entire Ganoderma lucidum was blood red and looked very extraordinary.
Yang Wudi handed the jade box to Yang Ping'an: "Ping'an, this is a Grade Nine Dragon Mushroom. Legend has it that it was formed by bathing in dragon blood and has dragon attributes. It is the best of the best among Ganoderma lucidum and immortal herbs. After you take it, you should be able to have certain dragon attributes. Both your physical fitness and talent will be greatly improved."
Immediately afterwards, Yang Wudi opened a jade box, inside which appeared a dark green bamboo shoot, which looked quite extraordinary.
Yang Wudi handed the jade box to Yang Tianyue with a hint of indulgence: "This Black Jade Divine Bamboo, Tianyue, your talent is quite remarkable. This Black Jade Divine Bamboo is also a top-grade immortal herb. After consuming it, it will not only increase your soul power, but also increase your martial soul strength and physical fitness. It is very suitable for you."
Finally, Yang Wudi opened the last jade box. Inside the box was a purple flower, which seemed to emanate seven different auras. In particular, it emanated a very strong snake-like aura, which seemed somewhat similar to that of Dugu Bo.
Yang Wudi handed the jade box to Dugu Yan: "The Jade Scale Seven Absolute Flowers is a top-grade immortal herb with poison attributes. After consuming it, your martial soul, soul power, and even poison attributes will be greatly enhanced. Your martial soul should be able to evolve into the Jade Phosphorous Serpent King. This should be the most suitable immortal herb for you."
Dugu Yan happily accepted the jade box, but Dugu Bo seemed a little dissatisfied: "You little monster, if you want breakfast, take it out first, and Yan Yan wouldn't have suffered so much before."
Yang Podi shook his head: "This immortal herb is too outstanding. After taking it, it can not only enhance soul power, but also evolve martial soul. If Sister Yan takes it, it will be easy for people to notice the changes in her body. At that time, it will easily attract the attention of people with ulterior motives, especially some people who have been stuck in a bottleneck. They may stop at nothing to achieve their goals."
"For Sister Yan's safety, I have never dared to take it out, otherwise I would be harming her."
Upon hearing this, everyone seemed to understand the hidden meaning behind Yang Podi's words.
There are many people in this world whose martial souls are stuck in a bottleneck throughout their lives due to malignant mutations. For example, Yu Xiaogang from the Heaven Dou Team. If he or the people behind him knew the effects of the immortal herb, it would probably attract Yu Yuanzhen, or even Bibi Dong. These people are not only powerful, but they would probably also resort to any means necessary.
After all, for Soul Masters, the evolution of their Martial Soul is something almost everyone dreams of.
In the following days, under the protection of everyone, the four of them began to absorb soul bones and consume immortal herbs. As for the method of consuming the immortal herbs, it was all taught by Yang Wudi and Yang Wushuang personally. In particular, the two of them seemed to love the immortal herbs and were very reluctant to part with them.
During the absorption of the soul bones, an anomaly occurred. After Dugu Yan absorbed the eight soul bones, eight spider legs grew uncontrollably from her back, tearing her clothes and revealing a patch of snow-white skin on her upper body.
Upon seeing this, Dugu Bo quickly shielded her with his body and swiftly retrieved clothes from his soul tool for Dugu Yan.
After Dugu Yan changed her clothes, Dugu Bo, seemingly a little angry, said to Yang Podi, "You little monster, why didn't you give my granddaughter a soul bone to absorb? Instead, you brought out this external soul bone without even explaining beforehand. What kind of wicked scheme are you up to?"
"I don't care, now that you've seen my Yanyan's body, you have to take full responsibility for her."
Yang Podi was speechless for a moment: "Grandpa Dugu, you're blaming me for this? You weren't like this when you got the soul bone."
Dugu Yan quickly grabbed Dugu Bo, a hint of shyness on her face: "Grandpa, how could you do this? Po Di gave me this soul bone because he wanted what was best for me."
Dugu Bo snorted coldly: "You little monster, I'll let you go this time for Yan Yan's sake, but I'll settle the score with you later."
Yang Podi was speechless. He rarely did a good deed, but he ended up being blamed for something terrible.
Yang Podi was completely baffled by his mother and two grandfathers who were watching the whole thing with strange smiles on their faces.
It took the four of them two full days to absorb the soul bone and the immortal herb. Moreover, all four of them absorbed the soul bone first and then the immortal herb, which seemed to have a better effect.
