Chapter 590: A Deal with Ditian: Tianmeng Iceworm
After a single strike, Titan returned to Feihuang's Spirit Sea.
Xiao Wu, bringing Daming with her, immediately surrounded him. "Wow, Er Ming, you're so amazing! That was Lord Ditian, and you actually forced him back with a single punch."
"This is not power that Er Ming could possess; it must be because of our Master. We are now equivalent to a part of the Master, just like his arms. The stronger the Master is, the stronger we become," Daming judged.
Er Ming nodded. "Exactly! Only the Master has such magnificent ability."
Although it did not remember Xiao Wu and Daming, it still felt a great sense of closeness to them, and thus did not reject their proximity.
"Mas... Master, let me out to play too. I want to have a fight with Ditian!!!" Xiao Wu said excitedly. As a girl, she felt a bit ashamed to call him "Master," so after thinking about it, she imitated Red Hare and called him "Lord."
Such a small matter, he just let her be.
Xiao Wu was also quite bellicose. If she had seen Ditian in the past, it would have been like an infant seeing an adult; she could only crawl and tremble. But now, with Nan Feihuang as her backing, she felt she had some confidence to confront Ditian.
"Xiao Wu, I don't intend to fight Senior Ditian today. Don't be impatient; there will be opportunities for you to fight later," Feihuang transmitted his voice.
"Yes, Lord, Xiao Wu understands." Xiao Wu did not insist and retreated obediently. She knew that Nan Feihuang was different from the Tang San of the past.
He was her Master, not her lover.
Toward Tang San, she could be willful, but toward Nan Feihuang, she had to show the proper respect; at the very least, she could not ruin his plans.
Feihuang nodded, quite satisfied with Xiao Wu's ability to know when to advance or retreat. It seemed she was not completely brainless, or perhaps after experiencing so much, she had grown somewhat, just like Ning Rongrong. At the very least, she knew that willfulness should be directed at the right people.
Looking at Ditian again, Feihuang said, "Senior Ditian, why be so impulsive? If you spar with me now, I guarantee you will lose more than you win and gain no advantage at all. Why not listen to my offer before deciding whether to trade or not?"
"Hmph, human, then let this seat see what you can come up with," Ditian said coldly.
It was now willing to converse with Nan Feihuang because the clash of their strikes just now had made it fully feel that Feihuang's strength was above its own.
Just as Feihuang said, if the two fought, he would definitely lose more than he won, and if things went poorly, he might even lose his life here.
Red Hare does not produce a soul bone, but its Spirit Ring is twice as strong as a normal Million-Year Spirit Ring. The boost to Feihuang was also terrifying, almost allowing him to directly cross the Quasi-Half-God and Half-God realms beyond Limit Douluo, reaching a level above a Quasi-God.
A human with such strength was qualified to speak with it on equal terms. Although Ditian was arrogant, it was still willing to show some respect to powerhouses of the same level or those who even surpassed it.
If it were an ordinary human, let alone talking, they would have been slapped to death by it the moment they met.
"It is this. Feel it, Senior: Dunjia Heavenly Book Fourth Soul Skill, Recovery (High)!"
With Feihuang as the center, an incredibly powerful healing formation expanded, enveloping Ditian and also enveloping Life Lake.
Although "Recovery" refers to physical strength, it is actually an all-encompassing healing.
Physical strength, spirit power, and hidden injuries can all be healed.
Ditian was currently in its prime state, so besides feeling very comfortable, it could feel nothing else. Just as it was feeling puzzled, the voice of its Sovereign, the Silver Dragon King, rang out in its mind: "Ditian, quickly, find a way to bring this human to see me. His soul skill can heal my injuries extremely quickly, far exceeding Biji. If I have his help, it won't take years... no, it shouldn't take more than a few months, or even a few days, for me to recover to my prime."
Upon hearing this, Ditian revealed an expression of extreme shock.
What kind of healing ability was this? Even if Biji took action, it would take twenty thousand years to heal the Sovereign's injuries, yet this man could heal them in a few days. This was too exaggerated.
Seeing Ditian's expression, Feihuang knew that the Silver Dragon King must have transmitted a message to it, so he immediately retracted the formation covering Life Lake.
The sweet treat had already been given; he couldn't give too much, or he would have fewer bargaining chips in his hand.
That's right, the chip he offered was healing the Silver Dragon King in exchange for Tianmeng Iceworm.
In reality, although Feihuang's healing ability was very strong, it wasn't that it truly far exceeded Biji or Nine Heart Begonia; it was just that the method of healing was different.
The Dunjia Heavenly Book was a martial soul derived from a Three Kingdoms game. After reaching Nine Rings, one of the strongest abilities that appeared was Datafication.
The recovery effect of Recovery (High) was presented as a percentage recovery: the basic level was 10% each time, the intermediate level was 20%, and the high level was 30%.
For example, if the target of the recovery was datafied—that is, if their health bar was revealed—then Feihuang's skill would restore health based on the thickness of the opponent's health bar.
If Biji or Nine Heart Begonia restored one thousand points of health at a time, it would be the same for everyone. For a monster like the Silver Dragon King, whose health bar could easily reach hundreds of millions of points, it would naturally take a long time to recover.
But if they were healing someone whose health bar was only a few hundred points long, they could heal them completely in an instant.
But Feihuang was different. If the Silver Dragon King's health bar was one hundred million, he could restore thirty million points of health in one go; after three times, she would basically be mostly recovered.
Yet even if he were healing someone with a very short health bar, it would still take that same amount of time. If the full health was only one hundred, he would only restore thirty points of health in one go. It was somewhat similar to Lv Lingqi's Reverse Battle Golden Body, having the nature of being strong when facing the strong and weak when facing the weak.
"Can the formation you just used heal my Sovereign?" Ditian asked excitedly.
Feihuang nodded. "Exactly. Is this bargaining chip enough? I think you Spirit Beasts have made a huge profit, right? Taking a Million-Year Soul Beast with no combat ability in exchange for a true God-level powerhouse."
"Enough, enough, enough!!!" Ditian said hurriedly, fearing that Nan Feihuang would go back on his word. "Kid, as long as you help me heal the Sovereign, that Iceworm—whether you swallow it raw or skin it alive—is up to you. If you need, I can even boil it and send it to you."
Feihuang had black lines all over his head. Did this Ditian take him for a Spirit Beast? Because his Spirit Ring slots were already full, it assumed he was catching Tianmeng Iceworm to eat it.
He had no appetite for soft, squishy things like baby worms.
This Golden-Eyed Black Dragon King was truly lacking in class.
"Uh, no need to boil it. Just hand it over to me and I'll handle it myself." Feihuang intended to take Tianmeng Iceworm back to the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well.
Near the Cold Extreme Yin Spring there, many ice-attribute medicinal herbs grew.
Although Tianmeng Iceworm could grant someone an additional martial soul, it couldn't be done right now; that was an ability it only possessed after breaking through to a million years of cultivation. It was currently still a hair's breadth away from a million years of cultivation.
But since it could enhance its cultivation by devouring Ice Marrow, the Cold Extreme Yin Spring, which contained the power of the Ice Dragon King and was even better than Ice Marrow, could naturally do so as well.
Ditian nodded. "As you wish, human. Follow me!"
