Narcissus Jade Flesh and Bone, nourishes the sinews and bones, allowing qi to flow through the eight extraordinary meridians.
In the original work, Zhu Zhuqing finished absorbing it in six hours, after which her soul power skyrocketed by seven levels, and her aptitude was altered to an absurd degree.
After the Soul Master Tournament, she actually managed to rise 20 levels in five years, leveling up even faster than Feng Xiaotian, who had innate full soul power.
It could be said that this single immortal herb changed her entire life.
And now, there was no way to predict what Zhu Zhuqing's fate would become.
The corner of Yu Xiaowei's mouth twitched. He had worried before that he might misidentify the herb, but in this Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well, there really was only this one narcissus flower, so how could it have gone wrong.
At this moment, the sharp aura surrounding Zhu Zhuqing grew increasingly intense, forcing everyone to take several steps back.
Liu Erlong looked at Zhu Zhuqing with worry all over her face.
This Tyrannosaurus Rex in the eyes of outsiders was actually extremely thoughtful, and cared deeply about the circumstances of her students.
Otherwise, that earlier incident where she pretended to cry to trick Yu Xiaowei would never have happened.
Zhu Zhuqing's screams continued, and her martial soul, the Hell Civet, suddenly appeared as well, hovering above her.
Except the Hell Civet was no longer the pitch-black feline it had been before, but a.
Tiger form gleaming with pale golden light, and it was still continuously changing.
As the Hell Civet's body changed, Zhu Zhuqing rolled around on the ground in agony, and the immortal herbs and giant rocks around her were all sliced into fragments as she rolled.
"This"
"This is."
"Martial soul evolution."
Everyone stared dumbfounded, including Yu Xiaowei.
He had indeed witnessed Dugu Bo's martial soul evolve twice, but Dugu Bo's evolution had been extremely easy, naturally progressing from the Jade Phosphor Serpent Emperor into the Jade Phosphor True Dragon, before finally transforming into Ghidorah.
So why was Zhu Zhuqing screaming like a pig being slaughtered.
As the evolved form of the Hell Civet gradually stabilized, Zhu Zhuqing's screams finally began to slowly subside.
Looking at the familiar golden tiger-shaped martial soul before him, Yu Xiaowei raised an eyebrow.
No wonder Zhu Zhuqing's martial soul evolution was so painful, this was practically changing species altogether.
Dugu Bo went from snake to flood dragon, and flood dragon to true dragon, all perfectly normal advancement paths.
But you, Zhu Zhuqing, jumped straight from a cat to a tiger, how could it not hurt?
And she had even gone from the Hell Civet to the Scarlet Gold Tiger, a martial soul superior to the Evil-Eyed White Tiger.
You call this fucking evolution?
Even evolving on a rocket wouldn't be this insane, right?
That's right, Zhu Zhuqing's current martial soul was precisely the Scarlet Gold Tiger Yu Xiaowei had encountered before in the Star Dou Great Forest.
A top-tier soul beast bearing the title of ultimate assault.
Although it was inferior to top-tier beast martial souls like the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon and Phoenix, the Scarlet Gold Tiger martial soul, which possessed a trace of the divine beast White Tiger's bloodline, was already one of the strongest beast martial souls on the continent at present.
The Star Luo imperial family had previously also produced someone with a mutated Scarlet Gold Tiger martial soul. That imperial family's consecrated expert, after cultivating to the Titled Douluo level, possessed unparalleled offensive power, and no one was willing to fight him.
Unexpectedly, today a Scarlet Gold Tiger martial soul had actually appeared in the Star Luo Zhu family as well.
Yu Xiaowei looked at the changes in Zhu Zhuqing's martial soul, and a thought suddenly flashed through his mind.
"Heh, so that means the Star Luo imperial family and the Zhu family are actually both marrying close relatives."
Ince*t, it's honestly a miracle no deformities showed up
That was also Yu Xiaowei's assessment of the Star Luo imperial family.
The Scarlet Gold Tiger's evolution finally ended, and the sharp aura surrounding Zhu Zhuqing completely dissipated as well.
Liu Erlong hurriedly pulled a long robe out of her soul tool and draped it over the now-unconscious Zhu Zhuqing.
After all that thrashing around just now, her body was already soaked through with cold sweat.
In the bizarre alternating cold and hot environment of the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well, Liu Erlong was worried her body wouldn't be able to withstand it.
"Flender, back to the academy, the environment here isn't suitable for Zhuqing's recovery, I need to take her back to the academy for treatment."
After roughly checking Zhu Zhuqing's physical condition, Liu Erlong hurriedly shouted at Flender.
Yu Xiaowei's heart clenched when he heard this, and he hurriedly asked.
"Big Sis, what's her condition right now?"
"Oh, it's nothing serious, just some tears in her sinews and bones, once we get back, Jiangzhu can treat her and she'll be fine."
Liu Erlong answered while ushering everyone onto Flender's back.
Hearing that Zhu Zhuqing was fine, Yu Xiaowei breathed a sigh of relief. He didn't want one mistake of his to cost someone their life.
After returning to the academy, Liu Erlong hurriedly carried Zhu Zhuqing to the academy's infirmary, while Yu Tianheng and the others each returned to their own dormitories.
Ning Rongrong followed behind Yu Xiaowei, and seeing no one around, reached out and twisted hard at his waist.
But after struggling for ages, until even her own hand was sore, she still couldn't twist the flesh at Yu Xiaowei's waist.
Seeing Ning Rongrong straining so hard, Yu Xiaowei asked in confusion.
"No, Rongrong, why are you pinching me?"
"It's all because of you, you kept staring at that Zhu Zhuqing."
Ning Rongrong pouted and said with a dissatisfied expression.
Yu Xiaowei said, not knowing whether to laugh or cry.
"Didn't she take the fake medicine I gave her, I was just worried it might kill her."
"Oh."
"Alright, go take care of her for a bit, she did sell her life to you after all, and you still have her indenture contract on you, oh, right, remember to call me when she wakes up, I still haven't seen what a Scarlet Gold Tiger martial soul looks like."
In the blink of an eye, evening arrived.
Ning Rongrong came running over and told Yu Xiaowei that Zhu Zhuqing had woken up.
Inside the infirmary.
The awakened Zhu Zhuqing leaned against the bed, still staring at her own martial soul in disbelief.
She had never imagined that even her family's inherited martial soul could undergo a change.
"You're awake?"
Accompanied by the familiar voice, Yu Xiaowei walked in together with Ning Rongrong and Jiangzhu.
"Mm."
Zhu Zhuqing softly responded.
"Your body's fine now, right, if there's no problem then come to the jungle mimicry cultivation environment, I want to test your new martial soul."
Zhu Zhuqing froze, and an urge to curse suddenly welled up inside her.
Her body had only just recovered, and he already wanted her to go do tests?
Yu Xiaowei, are you even human?
Even a production brigade's donkey wouldn't be worked this hard.
One hour later.
Yu Xiaowei's test results were out.
Zhu Zhuqing's soul power had now advanced to level 35, likewise increasing by 7 levels.
In the test just now, under Ning Rongrong's amplification, Zhu Zhuqing had actually managed to tear through his scales with a single claw.
One had to know that Dugu Bo had personally said Yu Xiaowei's scales could defend against attacks from a level 55 Soul King.
Looking at it this way, in terms of offensive power, Zhu Zhuqing could now completely rival those top-tier assault-type Soul Masters.
After conducting healing tests, Yu Xiaowei also confirmed that she had inherited the Scarlet Gold Tiger's healing suppression ability as well.
What was even more fucked up was that in terms of speed, she was actually not inferior at all to her previous Hell Civet.
She was rather similar to Feng Xiaotian, a combination of assault and agility.
The only drawback was that her defense was still very weak, and she might die if she took one punch from him.
Yu Xiaowei held the evaluation report and nodded in satisfaction, then said to Zhu Zhuqing.
"With your current offensive power, even if your older sister came, you could slap her to death."
"So, you don't need to think about that useless Dai Mubai anymore, whether you have the Hell White Tiger or not makes no difference now, no one can threaten your life anymore."
After Zhu Zhuqing heard this, her vision blurred for a moment.
Suddenly, she laughed, but as she laughed she began to cry.
Let me say this first, Yu Xiaowei was worried about Zhu Zhuqing only because he was afraid Zhu Zhuqing would die from taking the wrong medicine due to his mistake, don't misunderstand, I'm seriously scared now.
