"Sanshi, as the best of this generation of direct disciples, the girl selected for you must not only possess outstanding appearance but also have excellent martial arts talent."
The middle-aged man pondered for a moment. "Currently, there is a girl named Dugu Luo, fourteen years old, whose martial spirit is the Green Phosphorus Snake. She has excellent talent and appearance, standing out from the crowd of candidates."
This kind of ceremony for the direct disciples of the Xuanming Sect also provides many girls from ordinary families nearby with an opportunity for advancement.
After all, there have been precedents where both parties fell in love with each other, the girl joined the Xuanming Sect, and then developed a good relationship, eventually becoming the wife.
Of course, if she doesn't want to join the Xuanming Sect, she can also accept a large sum of money and leave.
"Both appearance and talent are excellent?" Xu Sanshi was delighted. "Okay, let's take Dugu Luo. As long as she is good-looking, I am willing."
The middle-aged man shook his head and expressed his inner concerns.
Dugu Luo's martial soul contains a trace of powerful and dangerous blood, specifically the blood of the Green Phosphorus Snake King, known as the "Ancestor of All Snakes." It is risky for her to perform the ritual with Xu Sanshi.
"Sanshi, if I'm not mistaken, the girl named Dugu Luo is a direct descendant of Dugu Bo, the Poison Douluo who helped Sea God Tang San ten thousand years ago."
It's just that Dugu Bo's legacy wasn't very successful.
Xu Sanshi was aware of this; after all, the tale from ten thousand years ago was well known. Although the Green Phosphorus Snake is a powerful martial soul, it also comes with a significant cost.
While training, the poison continues to accumulate in the body, creating a vicious cycle. Although strength increases, so does the toxicity in the body, which could lead to sudden death from poisoning at any time.
Moreover, this disadvantage in martial soul cultivation is inherited through bloodlines.
Ten thousand years ago, the Green Phosphorus Snake only caused an explosion when cultivated to a high level, such as a Soul Sage or Soul Douluo. Dugu Bo even reached the level of a Titled Douluo and is still living one day at a time.
At that moment, the middle-aged man sighed: "I have investigated information about that girl."
"In Dugu Luo's generation, it is uncertain whether the Green Phosphorus Snake Martial Soul is cursed... Since her birth, the Green Phosphorus Snake venom has been a part of her. The potency of this toxin is considered one of the most lethal on the continent."
"Our Xuanming Sect does have a kind of elixir that can slow the accumulation of this toxin and have a certain inhibitory effect. To live longer, she has made this decision."
Xu Sanshi grinned. "Isn't that perfect? We provide her with elixirs to inhibit the toxins, and she helps me complete the ceremony. It's the best of both worlds."
The middle-aged man shook his head slowly. "While her Green Phosphorus Snake venom may not significantly impact the inherited martial soul of our Xuanming Sect, there are still certain risks."
"And the elder who oversaw the ceremony previously mentioned that he found a more suitable girl."
"It just so happens that her family is experiencing some difficulties, and our Xuanming Sect's elixirs could also assist her."
More suitable? Xu Sanshi's interest suddenly peaked. "Is she more beautiful?"
The middle-aged man thought for a moment. "I have never seen what she looks like, but the elder said that she is very beautiful and quite attractive."
"What's her name?" Xu Sanshi asked excitedly.
"It seems to be Jiang Nannan..."
