Chapter 60 - Leveled Up Six Times in a Row

**Chapter 60: Leveled Up Six Times in a Row**

After Bibi Dong ate the petals, she placed the remaining stamen in her mouth, absorbing them with her Soul Power.

Watching her subtle mouth movements, Gu Ziyi couldn't help but recall the scene he envisioned when he attempted to pick the Yearning Heartbroken Red.

As we know, likely due to their Soul Power, the people of Douluo Continent, like those from the West (such as Europe and the U.S.), develop physically faster than those from the East (Asia).Β 

At 12, Bibi Dong already has a slender, well-developed figure in all the right places, resembling a 17 or 18-year-old girl from his previous world, when people were at their most attractive. (N/E: Original author's opinion, I prefer women between 25 and 40, many of whom are well-developed in that age range.)

However, Gu Ziyi did not let his intrusive thoughts dominate him.

He was now a disciple of the Pope, and his Martial Soul had fully awakened, so he no longer needed to latch onto any girl's favor, especially not his senior sister. (N/E: Though I wouldn't mind holding onto some nice thighs myself.)

Between him and Bibi Dong, it's better to let nature take its course. There's no need to try to flirt with her now! If something happens between them, it should come naturally in the future.

For now, improving his strength is more important.

After eating the Jade Narcissus Flesh Bone, Bibi Dong began meditating on the spot to absorb and refine the medicinal properties right away.

The process wasn't short, but Qian Xunji and the others weren't in a hurry, so they kept watching intently.

Who knows if any unexpected event would occur, but everyone was on edge for Bibi Dong.

Buzzβ€”

She finally completed the absorption and opened her eyes.

"Wow!"

"Teacher, junior brother, I managed to raise my cultivation!"

"I leveled up six times in a row; I'm now at Level 39!"

After opening her eyes, Bibi Dong leapt in excitement, barely able to believe how much she had improved.

"What? Six Levels?"

Although he had already sensed the improvement in her cultivation, Qian Xunji was also shocked to learn she had advanced six levels directly.

He quickly came over, took her pulse, and carefully checked her body to ensure she was alright.

A sudden large increase in strength isn't always beneficial.

Only after verifying that she was fine and that her physical condition had also greatly improved did Qian Xunji breathe a sigh of relief.

Since both Yue Guan and Gui Mei had gained one level, it was normal for Bibi Dong's Soul Power level to increase significantly, especially since she was at a lower cultivation stage.

He was just startled by how quickly Bibi Dong's level had advanced!

"Good, very good!"

"As expected of the Immortal Herb! It appears that this continent also has such heavenly and earthly treasures!"

Qian Xunji laughed, seeing the true power of the Immortal Plants.

Bibi Dong had just saved two years of training by consuming a single plant!

"Congratulations to Her Highness the Saintess!"

Yue Guan also congratulated Bibi Dong at this moment, pleasantly surprised at how powerful the Immortal Herb's effect had been.

"Senior Sister, congratulations!"

Gu Ziyi added with a smile.

He wasn't surprised that Bibi Dong advanced six levels in one go.

In the original story, Zhu Zhuqing leveled up seven times after consuming the same plant, while Bibi Dong only went up six.

This was because Bibi Dong's level was slightly higher than Zhu Zhuqing's at the same point in the original story. At Level 39, she was on the verge of advancing to Level 40. It's normal that she didn't reach Level 40 directly, as she likely required much more energy than Zhu Zhuqing to move up a cultivation stage.

"Thank you, junior brother!"

Bibi Dong also expressed her gratitude to Gu Ziyi happily.

"By the way, junior brother, you also obtained an Immortal Plant, right? What's your current cultivation level?"

Then, Bibi Dong curiously asked about Gu Ziyi's current Soul Power level.

After all, she had improved significantly, so he, who also consumed an Immortal Herb, must have improved greatly, just as she had!

"Yes, Xiao Yi, what is your current Soul Power level?"

Qian Xunji also remembered that he hadn't asked Gu Ziyi's Soul Power level and quickly inquired out of curiosity.

"Teacher, senior sister!"

"Even though I consumed an Immortal Herb like senior sister, the Immortal Herbs I ate won't raise my cultivation level. I'm still at Level 20."

Gu Ziyi responded.

"No wonder I didn't notice any improvement from you."

Qian Xunji nodded at this, which explained why he hadn't asked Gu Ziyi's Soul Power level earlier. "It seems these Immortal Plants each have their own miraculous effects. Not all Immortal Herbs can enhance cultivation."

"Yes, teacher!"

"Teacher, before I forget, here are the remaining Immortal Herbs. I'd like to keep two of these for myself and leave the rest for you to decide how best to use."

Gu Ziyi nodded, summoning the remaining Immortal Plants from his soul guide.

In an instant, over a dozen Immortal Herbs appeared in the room, each radiating a soft glow, revealing their extraordinary nature to the world.

"That many?"

Qian Xunji's eyes widened upon seeing the number of Immortal Herbs Gu Ziyi produced.

Realizing their value, he now saw these herbs as potentially more precious than ordinary soul bones. Seeing Gu Ziyi willingly hand over so many, even he felt like he had received an enormous treasure.

"Alright, keep whichever you wish."

After collecting himself, Qian Xunji didn't refuse Gu Ziyi's request, feeling satisfied with the disciple's generosity.

Originally, he planned to take everything, but seeing Gu Ziyi's gesture, he agreed with his choice. (N/E: A bit hypocritical, I think. Though Gu Ziyi may have needed his help to find the place, the map was 'discovered' by his disciple, so he should be rewarded for his generosity. Perhaps with something symbolic, like the papal token that Bibi Dong has, or something material like money or property.)

"Yes, thank you, teacher!"

"I'll take these two."

Gu Ziyi said cheerfully and selected two Immortal Herbs for himself.

They were the 'Eight-Petal Immortal Orchid' and the 'Full Moon Wearing Autumn Dew.'

The orchid is a gentler Immortal Herb and easy to absorb.

No matter what kind of Martial Soul a Soul Master has, they can absorb this Immortal Herb easily.

Since Gu Ziyi already possessed the best Immortal Herb in his body, other herbs would be hard-pressed to have any effect on him. The Eight-Petal Immortal Orchid was the most suitable for increasing his Soul Power level.

The Full Moon Wearing Autumn Dew is an Immortal Herb that enhances mental strength and refines vision and is gentle enough to avoid clashing with other Immortal Herbs.

Gu Ziyi didn't ask for too much, only taking what he could absorb.

The Queen of Flowers would undoubtedly be the best choice, but if he couldn't use it, it would merely be decorative. Better not to take it for himself.

He believed these Immortal Herbs wouldn't be easily accessible once stored in the Martial Hall's treasure vault.

If he needed any in the future, he could simply ask Qian Xunji.

"Teacher, these Immortal Herbs need to be stored in soul guides that can preserve their activity!"

After retrieving the two plants he wanted for himself, Gu Ziyi quickly reminded Qian Xunji how to store them.

"Got it!"

Qian Xunji nodded at his disciple's advice, then stored all the Immortal Herbs.

He had that type of soul guide on hand.

"Yue Guan, later on, write down the characteristics and uses of all the Immortal Herbs."

"Also, compile all your knowledge of flora, especially high-quality flowers and plants. I'll include it in the library for future reference."

After storing the Immortal Herbs, Qian Xunji instructed Yue Guan to do so.

After learning about the Immortal Herbs' value, he would certainly no longer overlook them and so made this request to Yue Guan.

"Yes, Your Holiness, the Pope!"

Yue Guan replied enthusiastically.

He also felt honored to write a book for the library.

However, Yue Guan was clearly overthinking it; common flora would make for suitable public knowledge. But Qian Xunji would undoubtedly not allow many people to learn about the Immortal Herbs.

"Also, for now, keep Dong'er's level and Xiao Yi's situation a secret!"

Qian Xunji instructed Yue Guan and Gui Mei to remain silent on these matters.

Previously, every time Bibi Dong advanced, he intentionally leaked the news to outsiders.

But this time, she had advanced so quickly that Qian Xunji thought it best to keep this information private.

...

N/A: Don't worry, Yu Xiaogang will definitely not have access to information about Immortal Herbs. Unless Bibi Dong were to fall madly in love with him again, he wouldn't be privy to the Martial Hall's more confidential matters. The author won't craft such a nauseating plotline.

N/E: As the author said above, don't worry about Yu Xiaogang; he will likely be sidelined due to our protagonist, Gu Ziyi, in this story.

(End of Chapter)

N/E: Happy Halloween to all my readers and happy haunting!
