Mysterious Patterns

"For me to use?"

Tang San was taken aback and asked:

"Xiao Feng, aren't you going to use it yourself?"

Chen Feng shook his head, "You've been practicing the Purple Demon Eye for longer, so you should start using it first. I don't need to rush."

For him now, the Purple Demon Eye at the Micro Realm are enough to help him see the enemy's movements clearly in battle, allowing him to counter their moves with Tai Chi Swordplay.

It wasn't that Chen Feng didn't want to improve his Purple Demon Eye to the Mustard Seed Realm; it was mainly because he started practicing the Purple Demon Eye a few years later than Tang San, and he didn't practice as diligently as Tang San.

Therefore, he worried that the Full Moon Wearing Autumn Dew" wouldn't be enough to help him, and that raising the Purple Demon Eye to the Mustard Seed Realm would be a waste of a good thing and would also delay his research on the Lightning Yuan Stone.

After Tang San uses the Full Moon Wearing Autumn Dew,"his Purple Demon Eye will most likely be able to advance to the next level. This is the confidence that both the Original Work and the Manga give Chen Feng.

Tang San didn't quite understand Chen Feng's plan, but he was touched by his friend's humility.

So he nodded, "Okay, I'll use it first, and I'll find a way to get you more later."

Chen Feng waved his hand, "Actually, it might not take too long. Xiao San, are you going to pluck the whole thing off to use the Full Moon Wearing Autumn Dew?"

"Yes."

"What if we don't pick it?"

Tang San paused, looking thoughtfully at Full Moon Wearing Autumn Dew, "You mean, we should just use it directly like this, without damaging it?"

"Will it work?" Chen Feng asked.

"Uh... I don't know either," Tang San said, somewhat bewildered.

According to the records of the Tang Sect, these herbs should be picked before use. Generally speaking, these herbs grow in places that are not good places, either guarded by powerful creatures or not suitable for people to stay for long. Therefore, picking them is the default practice.

However, since Chen Feng has spoken, there's no harm in giving it a try.

Thinking of this, Tang San walked to the side of the Full Moon Wearing Autumn Dew" herb, and after a moment's thought, he lay down next to it, moving his head under the Full Moon Wearing Autumn Dew.

Then he said:

"Xiao Feng, come help me, I don't want it to spill and go to waste."

Seeing Tang San's actions, Chen Feng couldn't help but ask:

"Why not just collect the dew from these herbs in a container and use it? Is it really alright to just lie there like that?"

"Xiao Feng, you don't know this, but when using this herb, you have to drink the dew directly. I don't know what would happen if I used a container to collect it, or if it would make the dew lose its effectiveness. We don't have the resources to do such an experiment, so it's safer to use it directly like this," Tang San replied, lying on the ground.

"Your thinking is rigorous." Chen Feng gave him a thumbs up and then walked over.

Dugu Bo, who was listening in, nodded slightly and wrote down what the two boys said.

If Chen Feng's idea is feasible, then these herbs can be reused repeatedly. Although Dugu Bo himself hasn't trained his eyesight much, and neither has Dugu Yan, Dugu Yan will definitely have successors in the future, and then their experience in this area will come in handy.

Chen Feng arrived at the side of the Full Moon Wearing Autumn Dew" and, after Tang San opened his mouth, dripped a few drops of the transparent liquid from the Full Moon Wearing Autumn Dew into his mouth.

After those few drops of clear liquid left the grass blades, the entire plant of * Full Moon Wearing Autumn Dew began to wither.

However, under the tense gaze of Chen Feng and Tang San, this precious herb did not completely wither and die, but rather declined to a certain extent, yet it still showed some vitality.

"Is this considered a success or a failure?" Chen Feng asked nervously.

Tang San sat up, examined it briefly, and nodded affirmatively:

"It's done. This 'Full Moon Wearing Autumn Dew' plant can still be used. Given the environment here, it's estimated that dew will start to grow again in a few years."

"That's good." Chen Feng breathed a sigh of relief.

Waiting a few years is fine.

After checking on the state of Full Moon Wearing Autumn Dew, Tang San sat cross-legged and began to cultivate quietly with his five hearts facing the sky in the posture.

At the same time, a faint crimson-gold light appeared on his head, and the Golden Light continuously gathered towards his eyes like threads.

Seeing this, Dugu Bo brought Chen Feng to the edge of the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well and protected him with his Soul Power.

The Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well possesses both extremely hot and extremely cold forces, which can promote the rapid growth of plants and also have special effects on animals.

If humans or animals live near the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well, their bodies will be impacted by the two extreme types of spiritual energy from heaven and earth. If they cannot leave in time, they will explode and die.

After Tang San awakened the Blue Silver Emperor Bloodline, he is now technically in a vegetative state, but his Life Force is quite strong. It is still unclear whether the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well will have a positive or negative impact on him.

But Chen Feng is a legitimate human being, and staying here for too long without any protection would truly be fatal.

To avoid being harmed by the unique environment of the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well, one must either possess powerful Soul Power to protect oneself, like Dugu Bo and Tang Hao, or, like Tang San in the Original Work, consume both the Octagonal Mysterious Ice Grass and the Infernal Delicate Apricot simultaneously, and then use the spring water of the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well to refine one's body.

The path ahead was obviously unreliable for the time being, and Chen Feng was somewhat hesitant about the path behind.

Although both the Octagonal Mysterious Ice Grass and the Infernal Delicate Apricot are celestial-grade herbs, according to the Original Work description, they are not the best quality herbs in the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well. On the contrary, their quality can only be considered ordinary, and they are also highly poisonous.

Not only that, but after consuming these two things, one must endure a period of torment before finally achieving Water and Fire Impervious Body.

Compared to the Immortal Herbs consumed by the other Shrek Seven Monsters in the Original Work, these two Immortal Herb, one ice and one fire, seem to be somewhat lacking.

To put it more bluntly, Chen Feng is a bit greedy; it's an old problem of his.

He had struggled with the choice of the Yin Sword many times before, and now he naturally wanted to see if he could get himself a better and more suitable Immortal Herb.

Judging from the effects, the Immortal Herb consumed by the Shrek Seven Monsters in the Original Work were generally not very suitable for him, but this does not mean that there are no other Immortal Herb at the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well.

Therefore, Chen Feng planned to consult Tang San after he woke up and ask him to help him choose the most suitable one.

Just as Chen Feng was thinking this, Dugu Bo suddenly patted him on the shoulder and said:

"Not counting the Full Moon Wearing Autumn Dew I just gave you, you can also pick out a few herbs here as a gift from me."

Chen Feng paused for a moment, then nodded and said:

"Thank you, Senior Poison Douluo."

He didn't stand on ceremony, because he genuinely needed it.

Dugu Bo smiled. "You helped me resolve my health issues, which is tantamount to saving Yan Yan's life. What are these things compared to that?"

"But when I saw Miss Dugu before, her hair was still green?" Chen Feng frowned.

Dugu Bo shook his head, "You haven't met Yan Yan before, so you don't know, but actually Yan Yan's condition has improved a lot, and her hair color is much more normal than before."

A gentle smile appeared in his eyes. "I originally intended to give that Lotus Seed to Yan Yan, but she insisted on giving Lotus Seed to me, saying that she still had a chance to obtain Soul Ring to continue improving her situation, but I had already reached my limit, so I should take that Lotus Seed instead."

"Ha, everyone knows I'm an old scoundrel who's reached the end of my rope. Wouldn't it be a waste to let me eat such precious things? This child really doesn't understand anything."

Chen Feng smiled and said, "This is Miss Dugu's filial piety. Moreover, I think what she meant by 'the end' is not that the senior has reached the end of his life, but that the senior's chance to obtain Soul Ring has come to an end. That's why she gave the Lotus Seed to the senior."

"Yes, Yan Yan is a good child." Dugu Bo sighed softly. "That's good too. My cultivation will improve, allowing me to live a few more years and take better care of her."

After saying that, he seemed to remember something and pointed to the two herbs at either end of the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well, saying:

"Speaking of which, those two herbs are the Octagonal Mysterious Ice Grass and the Infernal Delicate Apricot you told me about before. You said that taking them together could create Water and Fire Impervious Body. Are you interested in them?"

"It would be a lie to say I'm not interested, but the suitability of Immortal Herb herbs is a factor, so I plan to ask Xiao San before making a decision," Chen Feng said.

Dugu Bo nodded and remained silent.

After a while, Tang San slowly opened his eyes.

In Shunatsu, Chen Feng and Dugu Bo felt a flash of light before their eyes, and Tang San's eyes had now turned completely golden-purple, radiating a dazzling brilliance.

However, the light in Tang San's eyes quickly faded, and he returned to normal.

"How are you feeling, Xiao San?" Chen Feng asked.

"Excellent! My Purple Demon Eye has successfully advanced." Tang San gave a thumbs up.

Oh? Has anything changed?

"We can see things more deeply, and they are no longer just supplementary."

After entering the Mustard Seed Realm, Tang San's Purple Demon Eye gained the ability to launch Mental Attack, giving him another weapon.

"In that case, could you take another look at this thing for me?" Chen Feng took out a Lightning Yuan Stone and tossed it to Tang San.

Tang San caught him, looked him over, and said:

"I think I see some strange patterns in this."

"Strange patterns?"

"That's right, there are patterns appearing inside these Lightning Yuan Stone. Could you give me a few more?"

Chen Feng then took out several more Lightning Yuan Stone and gave them to Tang San. Tang San examined them one by one and said:

"The patterns on these Lightning Yuan Stone are basically the same; there are no obvious differences."

"Can you depict these patterns?" Chen Feng asked.

Tang San thought for a moment and said:

"It probably won't work on a single sheet of paper, because these patterns are, well, how should I put it?"

"Attributes- dimensional?"

What does "Attributes- dimensional" mean?

Chen Feng pointed to the ground and gave an example:

"If something exists only on a straight line, it can be called one-dimensional; if it exists on a plane, it is two-dimensional; but if it also has height on the plane, then it is Attributes."

Tang San and Dugu Bo were both a little confused, clearly this kind of knowledge was still somewhat abstract for them.

Chen Feng somewhat helplessly, "Anyway, I understand what you mean. So, if I gave you a piece of ore, could you carve the patterns onto it?"

Tang San shook his head. "To replicate something on ore, you need the skill to carve inside the ore."

Chen Feng understood what he meant. It meant that the patterns were not only not on the same plane, but also had different layers. Otherwise, Tang San would not have said that, because he was a blacksmith.

Chen Feng frowned in thought. After a while, he suddenly thought of something and asked:

"What about using Blue Silver Grass? Would it be feasible to make a model using Blue Silver Grass?"

Tang San's eyes lit up. "This does seem like a good idea."

Dugu Bo was somewhat puzzled by the topic the two boys were discussing, so he didn't interrupt. He waited until they finished talking before speaking:

"Let me take you out. The environment here is harmful to the human body; we can't stay here too long."

Tang San was stunned for a moment, then said:

"The Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well is indeed not a place where one can live for long, but I haven't felt any discomfort. On the contrary, I find the environment here very comfortable."

"Perhaps the environment here is suitable for your cultivation," Chen Feng said, not surprised. "But it's not for me."

Tang San's gaze fell on the two herbs growing at either end of the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well. "Actually... it's not like there's no way."

"What method?" Chen Feng asked.

Tang San pointed to the Octagonal Mysterious Ice Grass and the Infernal Delicate Apricot, and began to explain the characteristics of these two herbs, then said:

"If you take both herbs at the same time and soak them in the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well, you can cultivate Water and Fire Impervious Body, and you will no longer be affected by the environment here."

"What? Go inside? Isn't that courting death?" Dugu Bo asked in surprise.

"Under normal circumstances, entering would indeed be suicidal, but entering after consuming those two herbs is actually beneficial, as it can promote the absorption of the two medicinal powers. Of course, if one's own strength is strong enough, one can simply consume the herbs without entering, like you, Senior Poison Douluo," Tang San explained.

"I see. But it's somewhat dangerous. Is there anything more suitable for him here?" Dugu Bo asked.

Tang San looked around, then circled the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well once more. Returning to Chen Feng and Dugu Bo, he said:

"If there are any advantages for Xiao Feng, then there are, but none of them compare to the benefits of the Ice and Fire Immortal Herb."

Hearing this, Chen Feng sighed inwardly, knowing that he could most likely not escape this ordeal.

In the Original Work, Tang San could eat all the Immortal Herb of the Shrek Seven Monsters, but as Tang San said, in terms of the benefits they brought, those herbs were not as good as the Octagonal Mysterious Ice Grass and the Infernal Delicate Apricot.

This is mainly because, apart from Tang San and two support characters, the Shrek Seven Monsters in the Original Work all possessed Beast Spirit.

It can be said that apart from Tang San, whose Martial Soul is the Clear Sky Hammer, everyone else, including Grandmaster, has a different role from Chen Feng. The immortal Immortal Herb that are suitable for them may not be suitable for Chen Feng.

So Chen Feng finally accepted reality. "Since that's the case, let's choose these two Immortal Herb. Xiao San, how do we proceed?"
