Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well

After calling Ling Yuan and Tian Yao out of the room, Ye Xi led them to Dugu Bo's residence.

When they arrived at the courtyard where Dugu Bo lived, they found him sitting at a wooden table, leisurely sipping tea.

"You're here."

Seeing the group enter, Dugu Bo rose to his feet and walked straight over.

"I've basically finished handling my affairs, so naturally, I've come to fulfill what I promised you, Senior."

"However, before that, we need to go to your Medicine Garden in Sunset Forest."

Ye Xi smiled politely.

"Of course."

"I'll take you there now."

With a sweep of his hand, Dugu Bo immediately led Ye Xi and the others toward Sunset Forest.

"Then we'll trouble you, Senior."

As Ye Xi spoke, she followed Dugu Bo's steps.

Ling Yuan and Tian Yao, meanwhile, silently followed behind Ye Xi.

About two hours later, the group entered Sunset Forest.

"My Medicine Garden is located in the central region of Sunset Forest."

"It'll take roughly another half hour to reach it."

Dugu Bo pointed toward the heart of the forest and explained softly.

"Alright, let's go."

Ye Xi nodded lightly and quietly followed Dugu Bo onward.

As the group walked through Sunset Forest, they occasionally heard beast roars. But with two Titled Douluo, Dugu Bo and Ling Yuan, present, Ye Xi and the others encountered no obstacles at all.

Before long, a volcano and an ice mountain appeared before them, with poisonous mist surrounding the area.

"I set up this poison formation."

"It's meant to keep intruders out. Stay close to me, and I'll lead you inside."

Dugu Bo pointed at the poison formation ahead and reminded Ye Xi and Tian Yao behind him.

As for Ling Yuan, she was completely outside Dugu Bo's considerations.

The reason was simple: the poison formation he had set up was utterly ineffective against a Titled Douluo.

"Understood, Senior."

Ye Xi and Tian Yao agreed, then followed Dugu Bo into the poison formation.

After entering it, Ling Yuan curiously examined the poison formation around them.

After passing through the poison formation, they saw a mountain peak roughly five hundred meters high. It was extremely steep and covered in jagged rocks, yet Ye Xi and the others walked across it as though on level ground.

About ten minutes later, the group arrived at the mountaintop and stopped.

Ye Xi, Tian Yao, and Ling Yuan swept their gazes across the surroundings and discovered that the terrain was exceptionally peculiar: it was an inverted conical ravine. Standing at its edge, they could clearly feel the humid air within and the waves of heat rolling up from below.

"My Medicine Garden is at the bottom of this ravine. Let's go down."

As Dugu Bo spoke, he stepped forward and headed downward.

Ye Xi released her Slaughtering Angel martial soul. After it possessed her body, one yellow and one purple soul ring appeared beneath her feet. The Black Wing behind her back fluttered gently as she flew into the ravine.

"This is a little too high, isn't it?"

After glancing down, Tian Yao turned her gaze toward Ling Yuan beside her.

Ling Yuan immediately understood what Tian Yao meant and took her into the ravine.

After Ye Xi landed steadily, she withdrew her martial soul and surveyed the surroundings with her Sapphire Blue eyes. The ground was covered with top-grade medicinal herbs, including Cinnabar Lotus that treated fire poison, the finest Snow Silkworm among Cordyceps Sinensis, and all kinds of other premium herbs.

"Well? My Medicine Garden isn't bad, is it?"

"It's filled with top-grade herbs. There are many here that even I don't recognize."

Dugu Bo came to Ye Xi's side. Looking at the herbs around them, a smile appeared on his aged face.

"Yes, it's excellent."

"Senior, wait a moment. Once I've picked some herbs, I can detoxify you."

As she looked at the herbs around her, the excitement in Ye Xi's eyes was impossible to conceal.

"Fine. Once you've detoxified me and my granddaughter, this Medicine Garden will be yours. Pick whatever you like."

Dugu Bo casually found a place to sit, then closed his eyes to rest.

The Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well could naturally nurture herbs with extraordinary effects, and it gave them ten times the normal growth rate. It was simply a paradise for plant-type lifeforms.

As Ye Xi thought this, a beautiful curve lifted at the corners of her lips.

Tian Yao and Ling Yuan also arrived beside Ye Xi at that moment.

"Follow me."

Ye Xi waved a hand, signaling the two to follow, then headed deeper inside.

"Wow, so many top-grade medicinal herbs."

Tian Yao stared at the herbs around them, her eyes seeming to shine.

Back at Spirit Hall, Golden Crocodile had prepared medicinal baths for Ye Xi and Tian Yao, so Tian Yao knew a little about medicinal herbs.

And the quality of the herbs here was outrageously high.

"The real good stuff is all up ahead."

As Ye Xi spoke, she walked straight forward.

After the three passed through a patch of lush greenery, a vast lake appeared before them. Half of it was milky white, while the other half was fiery red, radiating an unusual aura.

The lake, half milky white and half fiery red, formed a taiji shape, its two halves sharply distinct. At its center were two spring eyes of different colors, where the differently colored spring waters met.

Within the milky-white and fiery-red spring eyes grew an unusual plant each. One was entirely ice-blue, its leaves particularly strange, with eight protruding horn-like leaves and an intensely cold aura.

The other was entirely fiery red, giving off an incomparably scorching aura.

"Octagonal Mysterious Ice Grass. Infernal Delicate Apricot."

After naming the two immortal herbs, Ye Xi examined the other immortal herbs growing nearby.

Among them were: Lovesick Heartbreak Red, Aromatic Silk Beauty, Cockscomb Phoenix Sunflower, Narcissus Jade Muscle Bone, Singular Velvet Sky Chrysanthemum, Eight-Petal Immortal Orchid, Full Moon Wearing Autumn Dew, Black Jade Divine Bamboo, Earth Dragon Golden Gourd, Snow-Colored Swan Kiss, Aromatic Silk Beauty, Brilliant Gold Flowing Cloud Grass, Secluded Snow Crimson Exquisite, and the Ninth Grade Purple Ganoderma, which was not an immortal herb.

"Secluded Snow Crimson Exquisite can purify and enhance the attributes of a martial soul. It pairs perfectly with Narcissus Jade Muscle Bone, so I can keep it for myself."

"Brilliant Gold Flowing Cloud Grass can enhance the light attribute, while Infernal Delicate Apricot can enhance the fire attribute. Paired with Octagonal Mysterious Ice Grass, they can be reserved for my sister."

"Cockscomb Phoenix Sunflower will go to Ling Yuan Elder, paired with the Ninth Grade Purple Ganoderma, which can consolidate one's foundation and nourish one's essence."

"Earth Dragon Golden Gourd can be given to Tian Yao."

As Ye Xi picked the immortal herbs, she also considered how to pair and distribute them in order to maximize the benefits.

Very soon, only one immortal herb remained nearby: Snow-Colored Swan Kiss. Ye Xi came before it, wrapped her entire hand in Soul Power, and carefully plucked it.
