40 Using The Immortal Herbs

When they heard him they were all shocked, they knew that half a year ago he was only at the 39th or so rank and even if he advanced a bit from back then they would surely catch up to him with given time and Dai Mubai's breakthrough also increased their confidence but after hearing about his improvement they lost most of their hope of catching up to him now.

Noticing their mood Tang San smiled and said,

"Actually you guys don't have to worry so much about catching up to me, in fact, I have a really good gift for you all which will help you to boost your cultivation by a great amount"

When they heard him say that he had something to help them boost their cultivation the previously sad mood dissipated a bit but they still knew that to cross a bridge of nearly 7 - 8 ranks at a single stretch would be nearly impossible and if done rashly then they might even end up crippling their talents or even die.

But none of them doubted what Tang San had said, they knew that no matter what he wouldn't harm them and whatever he would give them would naturally help them as he had said.

He took out all the Herbs and gave them out to each of them according to their spirits, Singular Velvet Sky Chrysanthemum to Dai Mubai, Nine Treasure Purple Zoysia to Oscar, Cockscomb Phoenix Sunflower to Ma Hongjun, Beautiful Silk Tulip to Ning Rongrong and explained how to use them.

He didn't explain how much they would benefit from them and only explained how to absorb them and since they were all at a bottleneck they took the herbs and started to go towards the mimicry environments. They only hoped that the herbs would help them to breakthrough their bottleneck or at least push their cultivation by a rank.

When they all went away he saw Xiao Wu and Zhu Zhuqing left, Xiao Wu had an expectant expression on her face while Zhu Zhuqing still kept her cold expression, but when he observed carefully, he could see that she too wanted to know what he was going to give her.

He gave Xiao Wu the Daffodil Jade Flesh Bone, he was seriously considering whether to give her the Yearning Heartbroken Red or not but then decided not to as it was only useful to her to conceal her aura to help her reform her body when she immolated herself to save him.

It would be a lifesaver for sure but he had developed tools which would do the same function as concealing her aura and as for her immolating he had a lot of options and skills which would prevent that from happening.

So, in the end, he chose not to give it to her and instead decided to give her the Daffodil Jade Flesh Bone which would help her strengthen her body along with making it much more flexible which would be much more useful to her instead.

Receiving the herb she was really happy and then sped up and went to absorb the herb, he then gave Zhu Zhuqing the Yearning Heartbroken Red. He wasn't sure if she has feelings for him or not so he had prepared the backup option of buying an herb from the system.

He then explained how to consume the herb and told her to pour her heart's blood onto the herb so she could awaken it.

She then spits out blood from her mouth and let it drop onto the herb. She had thought of how her life went by, since the time she had come to Shrek Academy this person had shone like a bright star which had attracted her from the beginning, at first she felt admiration at his strength, intelligence, and his very nature.

But unknowingly that admiration had somehow turned into love, she had tried to deny this feeling afraid that she would be hurt the same way she was in the past and seeing the other women in his life she had given up but during the incident where he had lost consciousness she felt lost, she felt lonely and when he had woken up only then had she felt light return to her world.

It was only then had she realized that she was truly in love with this man, even if it meant sharing him with other women she would accept it.

The red glow faded and a bright red flower was in Zhu Zhuqing's hands, it was a beautiful flower which would surely win a girls heart if it is given during valentines day.

Tang San let out a sigh when he saw it blossom, this was the only part of his plan which completely depended on Zhu Zhuqing, it would never have worked if she didn't have any feelings towards him. Of course, he still had a back up prepared which was to buy an awakened version from the system but that would cost him a lot of money which he wanted to avoid so he was really glad that she was able to awaken it.

"Well it looks like you were able to awaken it successfully, now all that's left is to consume it which I suggest you do it in a more private location as using this herb would enhance your entire body and your clothes might get in the way of the process and you may end up naked..."

Trying to keep her cold face she rushed back towards her room, but that was also cute in its own way.

He then turned towards grandmaster and said, "Sorry master, I was unable to find any herb suitable for you and since you've already solved your spirit problem using the herbs to stimulate it might cause unnecessary risks so I didn't choose any spirits for you"

"Xiao San you don't need to worry about me, I'm already old and I don't have any desire to cultivate anymore, with my current capabilities I could have already gone back to my clan but…. Forget about it, as long as you diligently cultivate and make me and your parents proud that's enough for me and since you've given them such herbs I'm sure you've also prepared something for yourself right??"

"Teacher don't worry, I will do my best to live up to your expectations and as for my herb, since my cultivation is already high enough I wanted to use something which would help me develop my other arts mainly me [Red Gods Eye]"

"I see, indeed that is a good choice, with such sudden improvements it would be best if you better get used to your current cultivation and develop your other skills since you already have a good foundation you won't have to worry much about Qi deviation or any other such problems. Alright, absorb it now and after your done, I'll help you familiarize with the new academy and you'll start going to classes from tomorrow"
