Chapter 413.

Yao Xun gestured toward the Seven Emotions and Six Desires Herb and explained, "Nothing else can grow near this herb. Any plant that comes close to it withers and dies almost instantly. It's said that anyone who consumes this herb will experience the full spectrum of the world's seven emotions and six desires, tasting the –bitterness and complexities of life. Even those with the strongest wills are rendered vulnerable and flawed under its effects."

He sighed, a look of reverence and caution crossing his face. 

"Its negative effects far outweigh its benefits. When our ancestor first discovered this herb and consumed it, he laid down a rule for our sect, anyone who can swallow the Seven Emotions and Six Desires Herb and remain unaffected would have transcended mortal limitations. Such a person would be a being akin to God itself! Surrendering to someone like that would be a great honor for our Medicine Spirit Sect, as they would surely lead us to a brighter future."

Wang Feng listened with a faint smile, suppressing a chuckle.

There was sound logic behind this belief, he mused. The ancestor of the Medicine Spirit Sect was clearly a shrewd individual. This herb was no ordinary plant—it was a test, and only the truly extraordinary could endure it.

Using his spiritual perception, Wang Feng noted the terrifying negative energy emanating from the herb. Consuming it would undoubtedly wreak havoc on one's spiritual power, obliterating their mental defenses. The more complex a person's emotions and experiences, the harder it would be to resist its effects.

Yet, the irony was clear to Wang Feng, only someone with an untainted heart and pure soul could hope to withstand it, basically someone untouched by karma.

"Doesn't that describe me perfectly?" Wang Feng thought with amusement.

Of course, there was another reason he wanted to consume this herb—it was a rare opportunity to strengthen himself further.

Yao Xun continued, "Years ago, your Soul Hall's Supreme Pontiff herself attempted this trial. She managed to endure six of the seven emotions without succumbing, a testament to her immense spiritual strength. However, in the end… she shed tears."

"She cried?" Wang Feng asked, raising an eyebrow.

Yao Xun nodded. "Yes, she wasn't defeated by the herb, but something in her heart must have been triggered. Perhaps a memory, a regret, or a sorrow too deep to contain. Afterward, she left without a word."

Wang Feng fell into thought.

It made sense. Bibi Dong likely had old wounds in her heart—memories or feelings that the herb had fed on upon. Even with her formidable mental power, such things weren't easy to suppress.

"Are you certain you want to consume this herb?" Yao Xun asked cautiously. He was nervous. The man who had just healed the Ten-Thousand-Year Sea Heart Flower—a miracle in itself—might risk his life now.

"Stop asking unnecessary questions," Wang Feng replied flatly.

Without hesitation, he approached the herb, lifted his mask slightly, and plucked the Seven Emotions and Six Desires Herb. Then, without a word, he swallowed it whole.

As soon as the herb entered his system, Wang Feng activated the power of his blood lines like power.

Almost instantly, the medicinal power of the herb exploded within him, transforming into a torrent of chaotic emotions. Waves of joy, anger, worry, sorrow, fear, and terror assaulted his spirit. Alongside these, various desires linked to the emotions surged, threatening to overwhelm him.

Wang Feng let out a faint grunt, steadying himself.

The so-called seven emotions—joy, anger, sorrow, fear, love, hate, and desire—and their accompanying six desires were like a relentless storm battering his mental defenses.

But Wang Feng's soul, purified by the Red Lotus Karmic Fire, was like a serene ocean. The waves of emotions crashed against it, but not a single ripple disturbed its surface.

Though unshaken, Wang Feng couldn't help but observe the vivid illusions conjured by the herb.

In one vision, he saw several women—–beautiful, alluring, and dressed in provocative attire—dancing around him, attempting to seduce him. They whispered promises of devotion, offering to serve him together.

Wang Feng, unimpressed, scoffed inwardly. "This is too fake. Absolutely ridiculous."

In the vision, he lashed out, kicking the illusions away.

In another, he saw himself ascending to godhood, traveling through different worlds, and witnessing the Douluo Continent's future ten thousand years from now.

Countless other scenes played before his eyes, each designed to provoke or tempt him.

Yet, Wang Feng remained a detached observer. The Red Lotus Karmic Fire had tempered his soul, allowing him to experience the illusions without becoming entangled in them.

When the visions finally subsided, Wang Feng felt the six bloodlines within him flare to life, absorbing the chaotic energy of the herb. A powerful surge coursed through his body, leaving him stronger than before.

At the same time, the seventh blood mark on Wang Feng's body lit up and began to grow rapidly.

Seeing this, Wang Feng smiled inwardly.

As expected!

Swallowing the Seven Emotions and Six Desires Herb was indeed a way to strengthen his seventh blood line power and cultivate his Dark Angel Martial Soul.

What surprised Wang Feng the most was the sudden huge progress of the seventh blood mark. This particular mark was unique because it had absorbed the Death God Domain, making its cultivation painstakingly slow. Until now, Wang Feng hadn't understood why its growth had been so sluggish. Unexpectedly, after consuming the Seven Emotions and Six Desires Herb and enduring its emotional onslaught, the seventh blood mark began growing wildly.

The importance of the seventh blood mark couldn't be overstated.

It was essential to shaping the Domain of Original Sin and ensuring its proper formation. Moreover, it was the key to fully unlocking the explosive potential of his bloodline power. With all seven blood marks fully activated, Wang Feng anticipated a significant amplification of his strength, possibly even eliminating the side effects of blood line like power's activation.

Currently, using his bloodline power came at a steep cost—both his mental and soul power were heavily drained.

This limitation had been apparent in his battle against Sword Douluo, where the strain of using his bloodline power had prevented him from sustaining prolonged combat.

But now, with the seventh blood mark nearing full activation, Wang Feng foresaw a future where this drawback would no longer exist. Instead, his abilities would receive an even greater boost.

As Wang Feng observed the seventh blood mark's rapid growth, he couldn't help but feel a mix of satisfaction and surprise.

Of course, the seventh blood mark wasn't fully cultivated yet, it had only reached the position of his heart. Nevertheless, the other six blood marks had also grown thicker and stronger, amplifying his existing abilities.

"Two years of rigorous training initially cleared the six blood marks," Wang Feng mused, "but in just a few moments, the seventh mark is nearing completion. That's impressive progress."

He wasn't greedy—strengthening the six blood marks alone meant his bloodline activation would yield more powerful effects. The benefits he'd gained were already significant.

After fully absorbing the herb's power, Wang Feng nodded in satisfaction. He turned to Yao Xun, who was still dazed by what had just transpired, and asked, "Do you have any more of this Seven Emotions and Six Desires Herb?"

Yao Xun blinked in shock. "...What do you mean? Do you plan to consume another one?"

His voice trembled slightly as he swallowed hard and replied, "No... no. Cultivating a single plant of the Seven Emotions and Six Desires Herb is incredibly challenging. It has taken us years just to cultivate this one."

Wang Feng fell silent, pondering.

This herb was unique, it couldn't simply be cultivated using the Golden Lotus. It required specific nourishment, unrelated to the energy of heaven and earth. Like the Acacia Broken Red Heart, it needed a special method to thrive, a condition the Golden Lotus couldn't replicate.

"Such a pity," Wang Feng murmured with a shake of his head.

At that moment, Yao Xun suddenly knelt before him and said in a solemn tone, "From this day forward, my Medicine Spirit Sect will wholly surrender to you! There is no longer anything to say!"

Wang Feng waved his hand dismissively. "There's no need for such formality. You're surrendering to the Soul Hall, not to me. Be mindful of your words in the future—don't make them sound so ambiguous."

Yao Xun hesitated briefly, his eyes flickering with an unspoken emotion, before nodding.

Outside the medicine garden of the Medicine Spirit Sect.

Hu Liena and Thomas waited anxiously near the entrance.

When they finally saw Yao Xun respectfully escorting the White Pontiff out, both of them sighed in relief.

"Everyone," Yao Xun declared loudly, his voice filled with conviction, "from this moment onward, my Medicine Spirit Sect fully surrenders to the Soul Hall!"

He turned to Wang Feng with awe. "Lord White Pontiff is truly extraordinary. Not only did you heal the Ten-Thousand-Year Sea Heart Flower of my sect, but he also consumed the Seven Emotions and Six Desires Herb without being affected. Such composure and strength can only be described as the demeanor of a celestial being! My Medicine Spirit Sect is utterly convinced!"

The demeanor of a celestial being?

Wang Feng smirked inwardly. 

Celestial being? No... I, Wang Feng, possess the bearing of a future Godking! What's the comparison to a mere celestial being?

Hearing Yao Xun's declaration, Hu Liena and Thomas were stunned.

They exchanged glances before both turned their gazes toward Wang Feng.

They inhaled sharply, their eyes wide with disbelief.

This was no ordinary feat. Their respect for Wang Feng deepened as they looked at him in shock and admiration.
