Beside the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well, Dugu Bo was completely dumbfounded by Tang Hao's words.

He was stunned for a while, still a little confused about what he had just heard.

There's a saying, "Because I read so fast, by the time I realized what I'd seen, it was too late."

Dugu Bo is currently in this state, except that he is listening instead of watching.

"Wait, what did you just say?"

Dugu Bo picked at his ear in disbelief.

Did I hear that right?

"No, you heard right, the Xiao San's mother is Soul Beast." Tang Hao repeated.

Dugu Bo gasped, his eyes widening as he looked Tang Hao up and down.

"Your Highness Haotian's taste... is truly unique. How could someone like that possibly have a child?"

Chen Feng, standing to the side, could hardly contain himself. He recalled all the tragedies he had seen and heard in his previous life, barely managing to keep himself from laughing out loud.

Clearly, Dugu Bo had misunderstood Tang Hao's meaning.

Upon realizing this, Tang Hao's face darkened. "The Xiao San's mother is a 100,000-year-old Soul Beast."

"Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Beast... Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Beast!?" Dugu Bo's voice trembled with shock. "Could it be the legendary Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Beast transformed into a human?"

Tang Hao nodded, Dugu Bo immediately understood.

No wonder... no wonder...

At this moment, Dugu Bo felt that many things from back then could now be explained.

Remembering what Tang San had just said, he asked:

"Could it be that Haotian's wife is Plant-type Soul Beast, and hasn't completely passed away yet?"

"That's right, so I'd like to ask Poison Douluo to do me a favor and allow me to move my lover here." Tang Hao looked at Dugu Bo, his tone pleading.

"No problem." Dugu Bo agreed readily.

The calculation isn't difficult. If he refuses, he will most likely gain another enemy at the Titled Douluo level, and that's a genius Titled Douluo who killed the Pope of the Spirit Hall.

Furthermore, Tang San, this genius youth, would most likely be hostile towards him, and Chen Feng might also have his own thoughts.

However, if he agrees, Dugu Bo would only need to give up a small piece of land to gain the favor of a powerful title holder and the goodwill of two genius teenagers.

At the same time, Dugu Bo will also have a Titled Douluo come to help him guard the Herb Garden, which is truly a winning situation, so there is no need to hesitate about which choice to make.

"Thank you, Poison Douluo," Tang Hao said solemnly, clasping his hands in a fist salute.

Tang San also clasped his hands and bowed to Dugu Bo, saying:

"Tang San will forever remember Poison Douluo's assistance today."

"It was nothing," Dugu Bo said, waving his hand.

Having received the promise, Tang Hao was not willing to delay and immediately left the place to transplant the Blue Silver Emperor.

Tang San was filled with anticipation, but knew he didn't need to go with them, so he stayed behind.

Only then did he begin to pay attention to the herbs growing inside the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well.

The first things that caught his attention were naturally the Octagonal Mysterious Ice Grass and the Infernal Delicate Apricot grew at the two ends of the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well and were the most conspicuous in appearance.

These two Immortal Herb are extremely cold and extremely hot, respectively. They are both highly poisonous when taken alone, but if taken together, they can grant the user immunity to ice and fire.

However, this method would also mix ice and fire energies into the body, and Tang San naturally didn't want to get involved with either of these.

Although the Immortal Herb is beneficial, it should not be taken indiscriminately.

Besides the Octagonal Mysterious Ice Grass and the Infernal Delicate Apricot, there are also Cockscomb Phoenix Sunflower, Singular Velvet Sky Chrysanthemum, and Lovesick Heartbreak Red, among others. These are all medicinal Immortal Herb that can be consumed directly, each offering different benefits.

"This is truly a treasure trove," Tang San remarked, his gaze sweeping over the numerous herbs.

Aside from the several kinds of Immortal Herb, there are many more common herbs here, but this "common" is only in comparison to the Immortal Herb; they are still quite precious in themselves.

If he could use these herbs, Tang San felt he could begin his great undertaking of poison production.

However, since Dugu Bo had already done him a great favor, Tang San really couldn't bring himself to ask for more.

Compared to his mother, the importance of his drug-making business naturally had to take a backseat.

Dugu Bo had been observing Tang San's reaction to the herbs in the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well. Seeing the young man's initial joy followed by frustration, he asked:

"Tang San, do you perhaps recognize all the herbs here?"

"Well... mostly, I guess." Tang San didn't give a definitive answer.

"Oh?" Dugu Bo sized him up, then glanced at the silent Chen Feng beside him, thinking to himself, "Do geniuses all appear in clusters?"

Or perhaps geniuses attract each other?

"Tang San, if I allow you to use the herbs here, what do you plan to do?" Dugu Bo suddenly asked.

Tang San was taken aback, and subconsciously blurted out:

"Of course, it's for making poison."

"You can also make poison?" Dugu Bo asked curiously.

"The poison I create might even threaten Titled Douluo." A hint of arrogance appeared on Tang San's face.

"Ha! Hahaha!" Dugu Bo seemed to have heard the biggest joke in the world. "Do you know that Titled Douluo is already a powerhouse on another level? Poison alone poses a very limited threat to Titled Douluo."

Otherwise, how could he have been rated as the weakest Titled Douluo, with no way to refute it?

Tang San nodded, then shook his head. "Titled Douluo are indeed powerful, able to easily avoid poison entering their bodies, but as long as I can create a poison that enters their body, I guarantee it will pose a tremendous threat to Titled Douluo."

The poison he mentioned was the third-ranked super Hidden Weapon in the Hundred Solutions of Tang Sect Hidden Weapons to Hidden Weapons, the Soul Chasing Life Taking King of Hell's Sticker.

This is a mixture of poisons made from 49 kinds of precious herbs. Once it enters the body, it immediately turns into a deadly poison and takes its toll instantly. There is no antidote.

Therefore, Tang San was very confident in it, even boasting that even Titled Douluo would be threatened.

In reality, he felt that if Titled Douluo were to accidentally let King of Hell's Sticker penetrate his body, he might not survive.

Chen Feng, standing to the side, guessed what Tang San was talking about. He glanced at Dugu Bo, who looked incredulous, thought for a moment, and then asked:

"Senior Poison Douluo, does your poison mainly come from your Martial Soul and Soul Skill?"

"Of course," Dugu Bo said.

"So, your poison is just one type of poison?" Chen Feng asked again.

"That's right."

Upon hearing this, Tang San's eyes lit up, and he said:

"Senior Poison Douluo, I have a method for creating mixed toxins that I feel will be of great use to you. Would you like to learn it? Consider it a token of gratitude for lending me this place to help my mother recover."

"You're just trying to get my medicinal herbs for free, aren't you?" Dugu Bo immediately saw through Tang San's intentions.

Tang San didn't deny it, and nodded, saying:

"I do have that thought, but I also really want to repay someone. I do have a method for creating mixed toxins, and the mixed toxins I create are extremely terrifying."

"Xiao San, are the herbs you used to make this mixed toxin poisonous?" Chen Feng suddenly asked.

"Of course it's non-toxic." Tang San shook his head.

Chen Feng pondered for a moment, then asked Dugu Bo:

"Senior, do you still remember the predicament you faced back then?"

"Of course I remember," Dugu Bo said in a deep voice, still vividly recalling the torment he suffered from the toxins in his body.

Chen Feng revealed a slight smile and said:

"The reason you suffered from the toxins in your body back then was mainly because the toxins were extremely potent, exceeding your tolerance. Now that the Heavenly Ice Water Lotus has resolved this problem, don't you want to pursue a higher level in the art of poisons, senior?"

Dugu Bo had a vague understanding of it, but still felt it wasn't quite clear, so he asked:

How to pursue her?

Chen Feng pointed at Tang San and said:

"Xiao San just said that he has a method to turn several non-toxic medicinal herbs into a terrifying mixed toxin, and I believe that this method is the key for you, Poison Douluo, to pursue a higher level of poison."

Dugu Bo frowned. "The poison I use is a single, unified entity. How can I possibly use such a method?"

Chen Feng smiled and reminded him, "Senior, Xiangliu has more than one head."

Dugu Bo's eyes widened instantly, as if he had been struck by a sudden enlightenment.

Chen Feng continued:

"Although the Xiao San possesses such methods, she may not understand their fundamental principles. If you and the Xiao San were to grasp these principles, given Xiangliu's nine-headed talent, the resulting mixed toxins would likely be..."

He didn't continue, but Dugu Bo already understood what he meant.

"That's right. Toxins don't become more potent simply by mixing them. There's an inherent law to it. If I could understand this, I could make Xiangliu's nine heads—no, not even nine heads, just a few heads—produce many kinds of terrifying toxins." At this point, Dugu Bo suddenly shuddered involuntarily.

If this really happens, what kind of scene will it be when he appears with nine heads?

Dugu Bo recalled Chen Feng Feng's description of Xiangliu: it was a walking disaster, leaving nothing but desolation in its wake—not an exaggeration, but a true depiction.

In other words, if he truly cultivates his Xiangliu Martial Soul to its full potential, he will become a true calamity, capable of slaughtering cities and destroying countries without a second thought, and will pose a real threat to enemies at the level of Titled Douluo.

Of course, Dugu Bo had no interest in massacring cities or destroying countries, but he felt that although he could choose not to use such methods, he couldn't be without them.

Moreover, being constantly called the weakest Titled Douluo naturally made Dugu Bo very unhappy. In the past, that was because of his innate deficiencies, but now that he had a way, shouldn't he take a gamble?

Thinking of this, Dugu Bo said to Tang San:

"Just do as Mr. Chen Feng said. You can use any of the herbs here, but my only request is that I must watch you make that mixed poison the entire time."

"No problem," Tang San nodded without hesitation.

"It's best to explain the properties and uses of herbs to your seniors before using them," Chen Feng added.

"That's only right," Tang San nodded and said, "If you need, senior, I can explain all the herbs I know about this place, so that it will be convenient for you to use them in the future."

He was truly grateful for Dugu Bo's help; not just anyone could easily lend out such a precious place as the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well.

Tang San's mother did not die completely, but left behind a seed. According to his father, his mother's soul was hidden in this seed. As long as the seed grows to a certain extent, his mother will be able to regain consciousness.

At that time, their family will be reunited.

If this were happening outside, there would be virtually no hope for such a thing.

However, with the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well, Tang San's mother was able to grow back at an extremely fast speed, and regaining consciousness was no longer an unattainable dream.

Therefore, Tang San was extremely grateful to Dugu Bo for lending him the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well, and was even willing to share all his knowledge of herbal medicine, including his understanding of Immortal Herb, with Dugu Bo.

"Are you going to give me a lecture?" Dugu Bo smiled. "Sure, there are a lot of herbs around here that I don't really recognize. It would be good for you to explain them to me."

Chen Feng's gaze fell on an inconspicuous herb. The herb was entirely green, but strangely, there were three snow-white leaves in the center of the herb, with a few water droplets in the center of the leaves, like dew left in the morning.

If he remembered correctly, this herb should be the Full Moon Wearing Autumn Dew.

In the Original Work, with the help of the Full Moon Wearing Autumn Dew, "Tang San raised his Purple Demon Eye to the Mustard Seed Realm, which allowed him to see through Xiao Wu's true form.

Chen Feng wanted to test whether Tang San could discern the special properties of the Lightning Yuan Stone after using the Full Moon Wearing Autumn Dew.

He was still quite concerned about the External Soul Bone he had inexplicably obtained. If he could figure out the underlying principles, then creating Soul Bone might not be impossible.

As for why Chen Feng didn't use the Full Moon Wearing Autumn Dew" himself, it was mainly because his Purple Demon Eye was inferior to Tang San's. To be on the safe side, it was better to let Tang San use it.

Anyway, the "Full Moon Wearing Autumn Dew" mainly uses dew, and you don't need to eat the whole herb.

If I just absorb the dew and use it, the recovery should be faster, right?

If this idea succeeds, then the advancement of Chen Feng's Purple Demon Eye will only be a little later, and it won't cause any major delays.

Chen Feng's blank stare at a certain herb caught Tang San's attention. Following Chen Feng San began to explain:

"This herb is called 'Full Moon Wearing Autumn Dew,' and using the dew from it is very beneficial for eye health."

After hearing the results, Dugu Bo waved his hand and said:

"I've never trained my eyesight. If you want it, Mr. Chen Feng, you can take it."

He noticed Chen Feng's eager look, so he generously gave him the herb, which was of little use to him.

"I don't intend to use it myself," Chen Feng shook his head and said to Tang San.

I wanted you to use it.
