Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well

Divine Realm, Shura God Temple

Shura God saw Tang Hao's thoughts clearly. He snorted coldly and said, "You've already come this far, yet you still fantasize about love. Pathetic. But this works out nicely."

With that, Shura God flicked out two specks of light, which entered Tang Hao and Ah Yin in the Lower Realm. Afterward, Shura God concealed Tang Hao's hiding place from the heavens.

"The Great Treasure Divine Art has yet to reach mastery, and the Son of Destiny has not yet reached the time to emerge." Shura God glanced at Ah Yin and Tang Hao. "Whether you conceive must be permitted by me. You may only have children if I allow it. If I do not, then you'll be a hen that cannot lay eggs and a rooster that cannot fertilize them."

Ah Yin and Tang Hao had temporarily become infertile.

Under Shura God's concealment, the Clear Sky Sect used its influence to search Douluo Continent for Tang Hao for years, but found nothing.

Sunset Forest, Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well

Anyone well versed in Douluo Continent fanfiction knew that this blessed land was the core capital that allowed the Shrek Seven Devils to rise to godhood, as well as one of Tang San's opportunities that transmigrators had to seize.

The Eight Spider Lances were uncertain; whether one stole them or not did not affect the reading experience. But any transmigrator who let even a single Immortal Herb fall into Tang San's hands was unqualified.

What was infuriating was that when Huo Yuhao had transmigrated to Douluo Continent, it was already ten thousand years later, during the era of Douluo Continent II. The Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well had long since been sealed by Tang San. Once Huo Yuhao entered it, he would fall into Tang San's schemes.

Back then, Huo Yuhao had already decided to give up every opportunity here. He only came to the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well to accept its gifts after realizing that he could not escape Tang San's calculations.

After stabbing Tang San in the back in the Divine Realm, Huo Yuhao arrived in the Douluo Continent of forty thousand years ago. Naturally, he had no intention of missing out on the opportunities here.

Huo Yuhao had forged a formidable body based on the Golden Dragon King bloodline and fused it with three Divine Seeds. Ordinary Immortal Herbs offered him little benefit, but two things here attracted him: the remains of the Ice Dragon King and Fire Dragon King.

Huo Yuhao directly took the soul bones of the Ice Dragon King and Fire Dragon King, then absorbed the Soul Rings formed from their Dragon Souls to forge an unsurpassed foundation. However, this also deprived the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well of its source. Had Huo Yuhao done nothing back then, the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well could likely have relied on its remaining ice and fire energy for around a thousand years.

Therefore, before ascending to the Divine Realm, Huo Yuhao had deliberately left behind two origin Soul Spirits of the Ice Dragon King and Fire Dragon King to sustain the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well.

It had now been more than forty thousand years since he had last set foot in this blessed land.

"You're here," said the Ice Dragon King.

Huo Qiqiang nodded. "I brought several disciples here to obtain resources."

The Fire Dragon King said, "Then the time is drawing near. As for our agreement—"

"Within a hundred years, I will fulfill it," Huo Yuhao said.

"That is wonderful. I hope our choice back then was not wrong," said the Ice Dragon King.

"Since you have followed me, I naturally will not disappoint you," Huo Qiqiang said.

The two ice-and-fire Soul Spirits opened a special space. The space before them in Sunset Forest twisted, and the wondrous sight of Ice-Fire Canyon appeared before Huo Yuhao and the others.

Qian Renxue spread her wings and flew into the sky. Looking down from above, she saw the canyon below blanketed in thick mist of icy blue and blazing red. Beneath the mist, rare treasures across the mountains could vaguely be seen blooming with dazzling radiance.

At the center of the valley lay the true wonder: a circular pool. One half contained icy-blue water that emitted a frigid aura, while the other half was a blazing-red spring that radiated scorching heat.

Looking at the sight before her, Qian Renxue praised it.

"So this is the opportunity the Shrek Seven Devils relied upon to become gods—the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well? It truly is magnificent. I have to say, Tang San really was extraordinarily blessed by heaven."

Recalling the history of the Shrek Seven Devils' ascension to godhood, she suddenly thought of something. "Before Tang San's era, the owner of this treasured land was Dugu Bo. There were only two people in the Dugu family, Dugu Bo and Dugu Yan. Dugu Bo soon died from his poison after the war against Spirit Hall ended, while Dugu Yan also died young not long after her grandfather's death. With all these Immortal Herbs across the mountains, was there really not one medicinal herb that could cure the flaw in their martial spirits?"

Huo Qiqiang said, "There were no fewer than dozens of medicinal herbs here that could eradicate or alleviate the toxicity of their martial spirits. Yet Tang San only gave Dugu Bo a Soul Bone Poison-Gathering Method in exchange for this blessed land."

Qian Renxue sneered. "Poor Dugu Bo. He was sold out and still helped count the money."

Huo Qiqiang said to the three behind him, "The three of you, follow me."

With that, Huo Qiqiang entered the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well, followed closely by Lu Yuan, Zhao Quan, and Xiao Zhi.

Immortal Herbs were merely ordinary flowers and grass in the Divine Realm. Consuming them offered gods little benefit. For example, in the Divine Realm, the Singular Velvet Sky Chrysanthemum was used to make tea for entertaining guests.

These Immortal Herbs could only greatly benefit one's foundation when consumed before becoming a god. Yet in the Lower Realm, they were rare treasures that could not be found even once in ten thousand years. This showed just how precious a treasure basin like the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well was.

Huo Qiqiang picked the Octagonal Mysterious Ice Grass, Infernal Delicate Apricot, and Light Spirit Pistil, giving the three Immortal Herbs to the three great geniuses of the Body Sect and telling them how to consume them.

"These three Immortal Herbs correspond to the attributes of each of your martial spirits. After consuming them, your already powerful Body Spirits will advance in attribute to Ultimate Fire, Ultimate Ice, and Ultimate Light. The absorption process will be painful, but once you endure it, your path ahead will be smooth."

"Thank you, Master." The three used Soul Power to retrieve the three Immortal Herbs, consumed them according to Huo Yuhao's instructions, and then sat cross-legged to refine their medicinal effects.

While they were refining them, Huo Qiqiang asked, "You know the names of these Immortal Herbs and how to pick them, right?"

"Before coming here, I borrowed Yue Guan's Immortal Herb Catalog," Qian Renxue said.

"Pick whichever Immortal Herbs you want. Just leave the roots and stems behind," Huo Qiqiang said indifferently.

"Can I take any of them?" Qian Renxue asked.

"Go ahead."

"Thank you for your gift." After thanking him, Qian Renxue headed toward her first target, the Singular Velvet Sky Chrysanthemum.

Several hours later, Xiao Zhi, Lu Yuan, and Zhao Quan finished absorbing the Immortal Herbs. Just as Huo Qiqiang had expected, their martial spirits had advanced into Body Spirits with ultimate attributes, and their Soul Power had also risen to the level of Rank 40 Soul Ancestors.

Huo Qiqiang took them out to hunt Ten-Thousand-Year Spirit Rings. By the time they returned to the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well, Qian Renxue had stripped the mountains of every Immortal Herb.

"You said I could pick whatever I wanted, so..." Qian Renxue stuck out her tongue sheepishly.

"I naturally keep my word."

The Immortal Herbs here meant little to Huo Qiqiang. He had obtained the most precious opportunities tens of thousands of years ago. The herbs themselves were not particularly important to him, and as long as the roots and stems remained, they could grow again. If he urgently needed them, he could simply take some from the gardens of the Divine Realm.

Besides, he had brought Qian Renxue here this time because, in his plans for the future, he needed a Spirit Hall stronger than the one in the original work.

Huo Qiqiang took out two more books and handed them to Qian Renxue.

"What are these?"

"The Clear Sky Sect's Exploding Ring Secret Technique and Great Sumeru Hammer, as well as the Mysterious Heaven Skill and its secret techniques cultivated by Tang San."
