Numerous Immortal Herbs and Flawed Detoxification Methods

"Is this the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well?"

Lin Chen gazed at the beautiful spring before him. Even though he had watched the anime and knew the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well well, he could not help being awestruck by the sight.

Xue Qinghe and Dugu Yan stared at the breathtaking scene, their faces full of excitement and surprise. Their eyes remained fixed on the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well, and for a long time, neither came to their senses.

The Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well was the extraordinarily blessed spring before them, a rarity in all the world. Two springs born as one, with yin and yang restraining each other—it was a peerless treasure ground that might not form even once in ten million years!

Not only could the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well nurture things, giving rise to countless priceless Immortal Herbs, but it also had a special effect on the human body.

It was thanks to this place that Dugu Bo had been able to force a breakthrough to Titled Douluo despite being afflicted by a deadly poison.

Seeing the astonishment on Lin Chen and the others' faces, Dugu Bo smiled and said, "I knew you'd look like that. Well? Not bad, this old man's Herb Garden, is it?"

Xue Qinghe immediately came to his senses, a smile appearing on his face. "Mr. Dugu, your Herb Garden truly is an extraordinarily blessed treasure ground."

With that, Xue Qinghe swept his gaze over the Immortal Herbs. "Octagonal Mysterious Ice Grass, Infernal Delicate Apricot, Eight-Petal Immortal Orchid, Aromatic Silk Beauty, Ice Immortal Jade Muscle Bone, Cockscomb Phoenix Sunflower..."

"I never expected there to be so many Immortal Herbs here. I suppose the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well really does live up to its name!" Xue Qinghe's gaze swept over the Immortal Herbs, the excited light in his eyes growing ever brighter.

Lin Chen glanced at the utterly bewildered Dugu Bo and Dugu Yan and smiled. "Brother Xue, calm down a little. Could you tell us about some of these Immortal Herbs first?"

Xue Qinghe came to his senses, looking a little embarrassed, though he still could not hide his excitement. "That was an oversight on my part. In that case, let me introduce these Immortal Herbs."

With that, Xue Qinghe pulled a small booklet from his robes and began searching through it for information on the various Immortal Herbs.

Before long, he raised a hand and pointed to an Immortal Herb that was green throughout but had snow-white leaves that shone with a crystalline luster. He said softly, "This is Full Moon Wearing Autumn Dew. It cleanses the meridians and purifies the marrow, strengthens eyesight, and greatly increases spiritual power when consumed."

Next, he pointed to an Immortal Herb beside it, shaped like an orchid but as lustrous as jade throughout. "This is Narcissus Jade Muscle Bone. It nourishes the sinews and meridians, strengthens the bones, and allows the Qi within the body to flow freely through the seven meridians and eight vessels."

"Over there, the Immortal Herb shaped like a cockscomb and blazing red in color is the Cockscomb Phoenix Sunflower. It has the marvelous ability to purify a Martial Soul's flames and remove impurities."

"And the Aromatic Silk Beauty is the bane of a hundred poisons. Within the range of its fragrance, no poison can take effect."

"Lastly, there's this Lovesick Heartbreak Red. This Immortal Herb is known as the king of Immortal Herbs!"

"The king of Immortal Herbs? What does this Lovesick Heartbreak Red do to deserve a name like that?" Dugu Yan blinked and could not help asking.

Xue Qinghe smiled and continued his introduction. "The Lovesick Heartbreak Red is the most extraordinary of Immortal Herbs."

"To pick it, you must think of the person you love most and sprinkle your own blood on its petals. Once successfully picked, it will never wither as long as it remains by its owner's side."

"What's more, if consumed, it can raise one's Soul Power by at least ten levels. The Lovesick Heartbreak Red is a divine treasure among immortal treasures, priceless beyond measure."

"It can raise Soul Power by ten levels? I suppose it really does deserve to be called the king of Immortal Herbs." Dugu Bo pondered for a moment, then suddenly realized something. "Wait, that's not right! Didn't I bring you here to cure Yanyan's poison? How did you suddenly end up eyeing this old man's medicinal herbs?"

Dugu Yan held Dugu Bo's arm and said with a grin, "Grandpa~ We're all here anyway. Are you worried we won't be able to cure the poison?"

Lin Chen smiled and shook his head. "Since Senior Dugu insists, let's cure Dugu Yan's poison first. Brother Xue, could you help us look for a suitable Immortal Herb?"

Dugu Bo's eyes widened at that. "So you don't know which Immortal Herb can save Yanyan either, kid?"

Lin Chen guiltily turned his head aside. "Hehe... I really don't know, but I do know other methods besides using Immortal Herbs. If I knew, I wouldn't have brought Brother Xue along."

Xue Qinghe smiled and shook his head. "Please rest assured, Mr. Dugu. Since I came along, I'll certainly do everything I can to find an Immortal Herb that can cure the poison. Please wait here a moment."

Dugu Bo watched Xue Qinghe walk away, then turned to Lin Chen. "Kid, didn't you say you had other ways to cure Yanyan's poison besides using Immortal Herbs?"

Lin Chen nodded. "Of course. It's just that both methods have their flaws."

"Tell me more," Dugu Bo asked, puzzled.

"The first method is to find a Ten Thousand Year Soul Bone and force the poison into it. Once Dugu Yan reaches level eighty-nine, she can then eliminate the poison by forming a Soul Core."

"But leaving aside how dangerous this method is, the time Dugu Yan would need to break through to Titled Douluo makes it less than ideal." Lin Chen spread his hands, sounding somewhat helpless.

"Then what's the second method?" Dugu Yan pressed on, following the topic.

Lin Chen smiled and began, "The second method is to take two Immortal Herbs, Octagonal Mysterious Ice Grass and Infernal Delicate Apricot, at the same time.

"Because both Immortal Herbs are highly poisonous, taking them together will cause their two extreme toxicities to neutralize each other, thereby eliminating various poisons, including the Jade Phosphorous Serpent Emperor's poison."

"Isn't that pretty good? I think it sounds suitable. Why do you say it has a flaw?" Dugu Yan asked in confusion.

Lin Chen did not know whether to laugh or cry as he explained, "Although these two Immortal Herbs can quickly and completely purge the poison, the purification is irreversible."

"It will eliminate all your poison abilities along with it, turning you from a Soul Master into an ordinary person without Soul Power in an instant. Do you think you could accept that?"

Dugu Yan hurriedly shook her head. "No, no, I really couldn't accept that."

Dugu Bo said in disappointment, "Doesn't that mean that if we can't find a suitable Immortal Herb, Yanyan can only use the Soul Bone method to treat the poison for now?"

"Mm... that's right—" Just as Lin Chen was about to offer Dugu Bo a few words of comfort to keep him from being too disappointed, Xue Qinghe's excited voice suddenly came from the distance.

"I found a suitable Immortal Herb! This Immortal Herb can definitely cure Dugu Yan's deadly poison!"
