Chapter 39: The Plan to Overthrow the Clan
"Congratulations to the host for completing the gold-level mission: occupying the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well and the immortal herbs, intercepting Shrek's Seven Monsters' greatest chance of becoming gods. Reward: one gold-level summoning card, 1500 diamonds."
"Hahahahaha!!"
Just as Xiao Yu was calculating the system's rewards, Dugu Bo's hearty laughter came from nearby. Xiao Yu immediately exited the settlement page and closed the system. Dugu Bo was already standing in front of Xiao Yu.
With Dugu Bo's cultivation and status, obtaining a ten-thousand-year spirit bone was not a difficult task.
During this period, Xiao Yu used the herbs from the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well to concoct an antidote to alleviate Dugu Bo's poison.
The effect was immediate. In just half a month, not only had Dugu Bo's poison significantly weakened, but his long-stagnant soul power also showed signs of breaking through. It wouldn't be long before he reached level ninety-two.
"Hahaha, Brother Xiao, I don't even know how to thank you!"
Years of affliction were cured in an instant. Dugu Bo was overjoyed, patting Xiao Yu's shoulder and laughing heartily, "From now on, if you need anything, I will do my best to assist!"
"No need for such courtesy, Senior Dugu Bo!"
Xiao Yu smiled faintly. Compared to him giving Xiao Yu the treasured Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well, detoxifying him was a small favor.
"Brother Xiao, when can you treat my granddaughter?"
Seeing his own improvement, Dugu Bo was eager to cure his granddaughter of the dreadful poison.
"The conditions are not yet ripe!"
Xiao Yu shook his head and said, "Senior Dugu Bo, I would like you to accompany me on a trip to prepare for your granddaughter's detoxification."
These days, aside from picking top-grade herbs to make antidotes for Dugu Bo, Xiao Yu hadn't harvested any of the renowned immortal herbs.
These precious herbs had taken hundreds of years to grow even in the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well. To Xiao Yu, maximizing the value of this treasure land was essential. Harvesting an immortal herb for just one person to consume was too extravagant.
Moreover, for Dugu Yan's martial soul to advance, Xiao Yu calculated that one immortal herb might not be enough.
Multiple herbs would be needed to complement each other. Dugu Bo's strong abilities could handle the impurities in various herbs, but Dugu Yan, just entering the soul respected realm, couldn't. Direct consumption could lead to irreparable damage.
Thus, alchemy was the best solution. Just like how Huo Yuhao in Douluo Dalu II refined the Creation Pill, adjusting and refining the essence of the herbs, and then combining the purified essences into a pill.
Refining pills was not only for Dugu Yan but also a carefully considered decision by Xiao Yu for the sect's development.
The primary target was Lou Gao, the divine craftsman. With his talent in blacksmithing, reaching a seventh-level soul engineer was just a matter of time.
However, advancing further was extremely difficult because an eighth-level soul engineer required a Soul Douluo level of cultivation, and Lou Gao was only a Soul Sage.
For him, reaching Soul Douluo or even Title Douluo through cultivation was almost impossible, so the best way was to rely on pills.
Like in the Sun and Moon Empire, almost all ninth-level soul engineers were Title Douluo boosted by pills.
Although such Title Douluos had weaker combat abilities compared to those who achieved it through their own talent, it didn't matter to Lou Gao. His focus was entirely on blacksmithing, not combat.
His disciples were in similar situations. Not everyone was like Huo Yuhao, who could balance soul tool creation and martial soul cultivation. For others, breaking through bottlenecks could only be achieved through pills.

His focus was entirely on blacksmithing, not combat. His disciples were in similar situations.
Not everyone was like Huo Yuhao, who could balance soul tool creation and martial soul cultivation. For others, breaking through bottlenecks could only be achieved through pills.
In addition, the refined pills can not only be used by the disciples of our sect but also a batch of lesser-effect but still nourishing and beneficial pills can be sold outside for huge profits.
In the Douluo II period, the Xuanshui Dan developed by Xu Sanshi's Xuanshui Sect had an astronomical price of ten thousand gold coins per pill, making it a significant source of income.
When it comes to alchemy, although Xiao Yu is capable, he can only manage it adequately. Maintaining a large supply would be impossible, so he naturally thought of the Defense Clan from the original story, known for their expertise in pharmaceuticals.
Xiao Yu shared his considerations regarding Dugu Yan's martial soul evolution and his plan to recruit the Defense Clan with Dugu Bo. After thinking it over, Dugu Bo agreed but was concerned,
"The Defense Clan was one of the four single-attribute clans affiliated with the Clear Sky Sect. Their pharmaceutical techniques were famous throughout the continent. However, eight years ago, a conflict erupted between the Clear Sky Sect and the Spirit Hall, forcing the Clear Sky Sect into seclusion under the pressure of the Spirit Hall. The four clans were abandoned, and the Defense Clan was targeted by the Spirit Hall. Clan leader Yang Wudi's only son was killed, and his brother Yang Wushuang was captured by the Spirit Hall. Recruiting the Defense Clan now would be challenging given Yang Wudi's temperament and their experiences."
"Don't worry, Senior Dugu Bo. I wouldn't undertake this without confidence."
Xiao Yu smiled slightly. Dugu Bo's concerns were valid, but Xiao Yu had the advantage of knowing the original plot. Yang Wudi, apart from cultivating, had a passion for pharmaceuticals.
Similar to Lou Gao's obsession with blacksmithing, Yang Wudi had an almost fanatical interest in creating various medicines.
He could work tirelessly for days without rest. Therefore, medicine was his only weakness. In the original story, Tang San used the Youxiang Qiluo Immortal Herb to persuade Yang Wudi to join the Tang Sect. Now, this very herb was blooming nearby.
It was a large, pale pink flower without leaves, with a stem three feet long and a bloom as wide as an arm's span. Each petal was crystal clear like a gemstone, with a pale purple stamen resembling tiny purple diamonds.
Xiao Yu carefully dug out the immortal herb.
"Senior Dugu Bo, do you have a soul tool capable of storing living things? This immortal herb will wither if exposed to the air for too long."
Xiao Yu asked Dugu Bo, recalling that in the original story, Dugu Bo gave Tang San a soul tool capable of storing living things, the Ruyi Hundred Treasure Bag. Tang San used it to store immortal herbs and even hide his wife. Xiao Yu didn't have such a soul tool, so he shamelessly asked Dugu Bo for one.
"I happen to have a soul tool called the Ruyi Hundred Treasure Bag, which is designed to store living things. I intended to give it to my granddaughter, but she doesn't care for pharmaceuticals, so it would be wasted on her. I'll give it to you instead!"
Dugu Bo pulled out a blue leather pouch from somewhere and tossed it to Xiao Yu. In Dugu Bo's mind, Xiao Yu curing his long-standing ailment and ensuring the continuation of the Dugu family lineage was a tremendous favor, making a soul tool a small price to pay.
However, he was curious and asked, "Weren't you going to recruit the Defense Clan? Why are you picking herbs now? Is there something special about this herb?"
"It's all part of the plan to recruit the Defense Clan."
Xiao Yu confidently explained, "This immortal herb is called the Youxiang Qiluo Immortal Herb, known as the nemesis of all poisons. It neutralizes all toxins, making it invaluable in refining medicines. Although it doesn't cure poisons, it can counteract them.
"Yang Wudi is obsessed with pharmaceuticals, and all medicines have some toxicity. With the Youxiang Qiluo Immortal Herb, he won't have to worry about poisoning himself while refining medicines. He can even attempt to create highly toxic medicines safely. For Yang Wudi, this is the best gift.
"I'll also draw a few diagrams of the immortal herbs from the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well. I doubt Yang Wudi will be able to resist!"
Dugu Bo's mouth twitched slightly. This kid was already plotting against Yang Wudi, knowing his preferences well and using them to his advantage. It seemed unlikely that Yang Wudi could resist such a tempting offer.
Unconsciously, Dugu Bo thought of Ning Fengzhi. Xiao Yu's shrewdness was no less than that of the world's second sect master, Ning Fengzhi, who was also likely to become a Title Douluo without any spirit deficiencies in the future.
Considering that he traveled with two Title Douluo bodyguards, the Nine Star Palace likely had many Title Douluo, which might indeed challenge the Spirit Hall's dominance in the spirit master world. Perhaps it was worth considering Xiao Yu's second proposal?
