Douluo Continent: Martial Soul Heavenly Dao Umbrella, Seven Kills Annihilation

Chapter 41 The Highly Spiritual Medicine Rat, Little Golden Retriever's Secret Delight
Jiang Nian was taken aback, rubbed his eyes, and looked at the huge rat in front of him.

It's truly remarkable that rodents can grow to this age...
"Holy crap, Brother Nian! A seven-thousand-year-old rat-like soul beast!" Zhao Bai couldn't help but exclaim. This thing looked easy to bully.

"Squeak!"

The rat, hands on its hips, growled and told them to leave.

In reality, Jiang Nian completely concealed its panicked state.

The two remained silent for a long time until the strong medicinal aroma entered their nostrils, at which point he recognized the species of the rat in front of him.

"The Hundred-Medicine Rat is said to be born with the ability to find all the rare medicinal herbs in the world."

"However, their numbers are extremely small."

Jiang Nian couldn't help but marvel at his own luck.

These kinds of spirit beasts usually like to hoard rare flowers and herbs, so there must be a lot of Ganoderma lucidum and yam hidden behind this cave.

Pack it all up! Take it all with you!
The Hundred-Medicine Rat was a little flustered; it didn't want to fight the guy in front of it.

Having lived for so many years, and with all the flowers, plants, and precious fruits I've painstakingly cultivated...

Jiang Nian activated his Heavenly Dao Umbrella Martial Soul, and the powerful aura emanating from Huang Zizi instantly stunned the two of them.

Zhao Bai swallowed hard and silently cheered him on from behind.

As for the big rat, seeing Jiang Nian rushing over, it went all out.

First, he gave a tactical shout, then picked up a large rock next to him and hurled it to the ground.

However, ordinary rocks were easily pierced by Jiang Nian's casual shot.

The Heavenly Umbrella rotates, and the power of ice gathers within it.

Ice spikes pierced its body, causing it to scream like a pig being slaughtered.

Jiang Nian frowned slightly.

What kind of tactics is this?
Rolling on the ground clutching his foot? It doesn't seem to hurt that much...

This scene left both of them a little bewildered.

The rat was in so much pain that tears streamed down its face. With a hardened heart, it knelt down on the ground with a thud.

"Squeak!"

Jiang Nian: "?"

What? You want to follow me?

Damn it, the fight hasn't even started yet and you're already this spineless?

Jiang Nian was speechless. He had just sensed that this Hundred-Herb Rat was highly intelligent, but he hadn't expected...

Wait, why would it be scratching its butt?
The comical scene made Zhao Bai's eyes widen. He looked at the two of them with a complicated expression, and finally his gaze turned into deep admiration.

"As expected of Brother Nian! Such great charm that he made a thousand-year-old soul beast submit."

Jiang Nian: "..."

Whether it has any charm or not is still unknown, but this Hundred-Medicine Rat is definitely terrified of death.

Oh no, I'm afraid of the pain.

"Can you understand me?"

"Squeak!"

The Hundred-Medicine Rat nodded hurriedly, then its body suddenly shrank, becoming almost the size of a cat, and it waddled over to him.

His fawning manner made him seem almost human.

Jiang Nian smiled gently, squatted down, and rubbed the little head.

"Since that's the case, and you're willing to follow me, you must listen to me from now on."

"If I become a god someday, I will keep you by my side."

Baiyaoshu was surprised, then quickly nodded.

It's not that it's without discernment.

Putting aside the martial soul of the human in front of me, just looking at the configuration of his soul rings, I have never seen one like him in all my years of life.

It seems that providing meals and accommodation isn't so shameful after all.

"Since you're all fair and chubby, I'll call you Little White."

The Hundred-Medicine Rat rolled its eyes, then nodded dejectedly.

Such a human-like appearance made Zhao Bai unable to help but take a second look.

Rare item.

······
Led by Xiaobai, Jiang Nian entered its medicinal herb field.

Behind the cave is a small flat area surrounded by three large mountains.

In those remote, secluded corners, sunlight typically shines into an area of ​​less than fifty square meters.

However, there are quite a few spiritual plants.

Jiang Nian swallowed hard. Although the thing in front of him was far inferior to the immortal herb, it was still quite good. After walking for a while, he even found a hundred-year-old ginseng.

She trembled uncontrollably when she saw him approaching.

"Xiao Bai, you've actually managed to raise this kind of thing to this age, not bad."

Without saying a word, Jiang Nian threw it into the storage soul tool.

"And there's also Soul-Gathering Grass, Vitality-Nourishing Grass..."

"Huh? There's actually a spirit fruit tree?"

"Hmm...it fits perfectly."

Little White bared its teeth, but its heart was already bleeding.

These are things it has accumulated over hundreds of years!
Now it has become his pledge of allegiance...
After Jiang Nian's thorough ransacking, they practically tore the ground apart.

Zhao Bai looked at the medicinal herbs in his hand, scratched his head, and asked in confusion, "Brother Nian, what's the use of this?"

"Speed ​​up your cultivation," Jiang Nian said calmly.

Then, he grabbed Xiaobai by the back of the neck and prepared to leave.

Zhao Bai was stunned for a long time before carefully putting it away.

Not long after.

Until it gets dark.

Jiang Nian returned to the camp carrying a seven-thousand-year-old Flame Demon Sheep.

Zhao Bai, carrying a six-thousand-year-old soul beast, looked around at the stunned students with pride, his head held high.

After handing over the items, Jiang Nian found a corner to stay in.

Although many eyes fell on him, few dared to approach and talk to him.

Ten minutes later, Jiang Nian undoubtedly won first place.

Zhao Bai came in third place.

After enjoying a wave of attention, the two disappeared into the crowd.

···
The Temple of the Holy Maiden.

The little golden retriever sat on the swing, looking down the mountain with boredom.

Seeing that the person had not yet returned, he couldn't help but sigh repeatedly.

"Oh, Xiao Jiang, I've been waiting for you for so long!"

"duang~"

Qian Renxue covered her head, glanced back, and her expression immediately turned to joy.

"I bet you're waiting for the flowers and fruits in the herb garden, and it must be a long and arduous wait for you."

The little golden retriever blushed and quickly shook its head.

"No! I don't understand what you're saying."

Jiang Nian put his hands in his pockets and looked around, but he couldn't find any trace of the girl.

strangeness···

"Squeak?"

Upon hearing the voice, Qian Renxue suddenly looked up at Jiang Nian's shoulder, her eyes sparkling: "Little Jiang, where did you find this little white mouse? How come it's so fat?"

Xiao Bai was unhappy and immediately put his hands in his pockets, trying to reason with them.

Unfortunately, humans and spirit beasts cannot communicate, and its face was instantly pinched.

Jiang Nian explained, "I encountered this rat outside. It's called the Hundred-Medicine Rat... It has the ability to find medicinal herbs and also knows how to cultivate them."

"I took it in and raised it because I felt sorry for it."

noob:"?"

Is this right?
Okay, it certainly lacks backbone.

Soul beasts will never be slaves!

Qian Renxue looked at the chubby body of the Hundred Medicine Rat, and when she looked closer, she realized that it was a female.

Moreover, the number of years is not short.

"Its spirituality is so high..."

Little White rolled its eyes dismissively, enjoying the human's tickling.

"Alright, plant the medicinal herbs I brought back first, then you can enjoy them."

Grabbing it by the scruff of its neck, and despite the fat rat's fierce resistance, it was eventually thrown into the herb garden.

Qian Renxue swallowed hard as she looked at the pile of exotic flowers, rare herbs, fruits, and medicinal plants.

Time to eat again!
