Douluo: A Century-old Legend I Am the Second Uncle Chenxin

In the dimly lit courtyard, Chen Xiaojun and Chen Cong came out of the room, thinking that it would be good to bask in the sun.

The two men sat opposite each other, with two cups of steaming tea placed on the stone table. The wafting aroma of tea seemed to add a bit of solemnity and mystery to the conversation that was about to unfold.

Chen Cong took a sip of the fragrant snow tea, his eyes full of stars, and looked directly at Chen Xiaojun: "By the way, Xiaojun, what is your choice for your second immortal herb?"

Chen Xiaojun smiled slightly, calmly, "Second Uncle, what I want is the strange chrysanthemum."

"Oh? The strange-looking chrysanthemum?" Chen Cong raised his eyebrows and motioned him to continue.

Chen Xiaojun explained: "The Qirong Tongtian Chrysanthemum is a neutral fairy-grade herb. Eating it can circulate Qi in my limbs and circulate blood in my eight meridians. It can help me cultivate an indestructible body."

Hearing this, Chen Cong was shocked and shook the teacup in his hand: "So powerful? Indestructible?"

Chen Xiaojun smiled and nodded: "Although it is a bit exaggerated to say that it is an indestructible body, this herb is indeed very beneficial to my cultivation."

"The medicinal effect of Qirong Tongtianju acts on the body's hands and feet, which means that the qi and blood flow like a tide, and all the limbs and bones are connected. With it, my cultivation will be twice as effective with half the effort."

"I see." Chen Cong nodded in sudden enlightenment, "Then what is the connection between this strange mushroom and the Narcissus Jade Muscle and Bone you took before? There is no way you didn't consider it."

After hearing this, Chen Xiaojun couldn't help but sigh: "Second Uncle, you really have a good eye!"

"The function of Narcissus Jade Muscle and Bone is to nourish the tendons and bones, and to circulate Qi through the eight extraordinary meridians, focusing on the tendons and bones; while the Qirong Tongtian Chrysanthemum is to temper the blood and flesh. The two are intertwined, tendons, bones, blood, and flesh, strengthening the body and taking all aspects into consideration."

"Therefore, although the medicinal effects of this Qirong Tongtianju and Shuixian Yujigu have their own focuses, they actually complement each other. The two are soft and hard, and they combine yin and yang, and both hardness and softness."

He paused, took a sip of tea, and felt relieved. He grinned, "These two magical herbs are like the ice and fire magical herbs. They are a pair of mandarin duck magical herbs. If I can get them at the same time, 1+1 is definitely greater than 2. My cultivation and combat power will definitely reach a higher level."

"In addition, the medicinal properties of these two immortal herbs are both neutral, and they are mainly used to strengthen the body and nourish the essence. Our Zhongzheng Sword Qi Jue has a vast and profound soul power, which is round and rich, and is extremely compatible with it."

Having said that, Chen Xiaojun stood up, looked into the distance, with a fiery light flashing in his eyes.

"In the beginning, I chose Narcissus Jade Muscle and Bone first to make it easier to adapt to the inheritance of the family's many foundational sword techniques; and now I choose Qirong Tongtian Chrysanthemum to increase the power of the sword technique."

"The killing characteristics of the intersection of Zhongzheng Sword Qi Jue and our Chen family's sword philosophy are superposition. The superposition of various secret techniques requires an extremely strong physique to increase endurance and backlash. These two strains are prepared for this purpose."

After hearing this, Chen Cong couldn't help but be convinced by Chen Xiaojun's choice.

He patted Chen Xiaojun on the shoulder and said with relief: "That makes sense. I will also explain this to the rest of the family."

Suddenly, as if he thought of something, he spoke leisurely: "However, there is still one thing that needs to be resolved. You chose the Qirong Tongtian Chrysanthemum. This magical herb is actually suitable for many people, especially power-type soul masters, such as your father Chenxun and your brother Jianjun."

Chen Xiaojun was stunned when he heard this. The corners of his mouth twitched slightly and his mouth was half open with a bit of surprise.

Chen Xiaojun seemed to be thinking, but he was actually muttering in his heart: "Well, it turns out that they are waiting for me here. My biggest opponents are actually my father and my brother."

Seeing Chen Xiaojun's reaction, Chen Cong couldn't help but smile and looked at his embarrassed look with a smile on his face.

He continued, "Back then, your mother Xiu Xin identified 144 immortal herbs and precious medicines with the Yin-Yang Eyes of Ice and Fire, of which 27 were immortal herbs, 115 were ninth-grade precious medicines, and there were 29 that she had not identified; later, she recognized two more of the immortal herbs, for a total of immortal herbs."

"In order to cure your great-grandfather, I used up one Xikang Tiannu Flower, and gave the Ximen family one Yehuo Bauhinia Orchid. You and Xiaoyi will need to use another five, leaving 5 immortal herbs."

"So, except for a few that are not suitable for consumption, how do you plan to choose these magical herbs for your father and brother?"

Chen Xiaojun pondered for a moment, and finally said: "In fact, I have also considered my father and brother. Golden Dragon Fruit, Nine Dragons Blood Activating Pill, Huagai Meat Floss Rong, Jade Earth Dragon Blood Treasure, these immortal herbs are all helpful for body refining, and the effects are similar."

"However, they each have their own emphasis, unlike Qirong Tongtianju, which focuses on Qi and blood, and Shuixianyuyu Muscle and Bone."

He paused and continued, "In addition, considering Xiaoyi's situation, after she took the Ice and Fire Immortal Grass, her martial soul mutated and evolved, gaining the attributes of water and fire."

"Second uncle, you also know that my father and my brother are power-type soul masters, with more than enough attack but less change; therefore, I am considering doing something for them in terms of martial soul attributes."

In fact, in the past few years in the Yin-Yang Eyes of Ice and Fire, Chen Xiaojun tried hard to recall that the Qirong Tongtianju and Narcissus Yujigu were neutral fairy herbs, so Dai Mubai and Zhu Zhuqing could not see any changes.

But Tang San's Blue Silver Grass is immune to both ice and fire, Ning Rongrong absorbs the Qi Luo Tulip that gathers the essence of sunlight, evolving the gem (treasure) type martial soul Seven Treasures Glazed Pagoda into Nine Treasures, and Ma Hongjun's Phoenix Cockscomb purifies evil fire. These are all manifestations of the attributes of fairy grass in soul masters and their martial souls.

After hearing this, Chen Cong gently touched his chin, with a hint of appreciation in his eyes: "This arrangement is indeed a good idea. Go on."

After Chen Cong finished speaking, he leaned back in his chair, placed his hands lightly on his knees, and listened attentively to Chen Xiaojun's analysis.

Chen Xiaojun smiled and began to speak in a rhythmic manner: "My father's soul skills, the third to sixth soul skills, 'Sword Wings Flying', 'Rainbow Piercing the Sun', 'Spanning All Directions', 'Vertical and Horizontal', and even the eighth soul skill 'Ten Thousand Swords Returning to the Origin Hurricane Shadow' are all related to the wind attribute."

"It's a pity that the martial soul has not awakened the wind attribute. If the fairy grass with wind attribute is used, it is entirely possible to awaken the wind attribute of the Seven Killing Sword. At that time, the power of the martial soul will be greatly increased."

"As for my brother, his third soul ring has the attribute of wind and thunder, and his fourth soul ring has the attribute of thunder, so I suggest that he take the immortal grass with thunder attribute."

“If my father and brother possess the wind and thunder attributes, combined with their Yang and Fire soul powers from practicing the Nine Yang Divine Art, it will definitely produce a good reaction and further enrich their combat power system.”

Chen Cong slapped his thigh excitedly, "Great, this is a great idea. As long as we can prove that the immortal grass can give spirit masters relevant attributes, this will greatly increase the combat power and foundation of our Chen family's spirit masters."

Chen Cong nodded with satisfaction, his eyes flashing with recognition of Chen Xiaojun.

He stood up and put his hands behind his back, as if thinking of a deeper plan.
