Ice Fire Two Elements Spring, Primal Chaos Sword Soul Pill

Dugu Bo sped through the Sunset Forest with Lu Chen in tow, soon arriving at its heart.

They passed through the outer poisonous miasma and entered a valley. Lu Chen finally witnessed the magnificent spectacle of the Ice Fire Two Elements Spring.

The entire valley was flanked by two mountains. On the left stood a giant peak clad in ten-thousand-year-old ice, its ice shards stabbing straight into the sky like swords. On the right was a volcano spewing scorching air waves, with dark red flames occasionally leaping from its crevices.

At the valley's center lay a lake, clearly divided into two distinct halves.

One side was ice-white, faintly emitting white qi, while the other was fiery red, its surface shimmering with distorted light. Red and white lay there like two massive inlaid jade stones.

The dense life aura in the air filled the entire valley space, rising from their steam.

Looking closer, at the Extreme Cold Ice Spring, a single octagonal immortal grass stood quietly. Its central stamen, carved from the purest ice crystal, shimmered with a fine, cold light.

Meanwhile, at the center of the Scorching Fire Spring, another immortal grass blazed with crimson flames. Its leaves unfurled as if ready to erupt with a scorching force that could incinerate everything.

Sensing the two opposing auras of extreme cold and heat in the valley, Lu Chen sighed inwardly: What a remarkable Ice Fire Two Elements Spring!

At the same time, Dugu Yan spotted Lu Chen and immediately came to his side.

She first interrogated Dugu Bo: "Grandfather, you didn't force Lu Chen, did you?"

"Of course not!"

Seeing his granddaughter siding with an outsider, Dugu Bo silently lamented: Truly, a daughter grows up and leaves home.

He then turned to Lu Chen and asked, "So? Is there any herbal medicine in my garden that you can use?"

Lu Chen nodded and said, "Of course there is! Even solving the poison on your body is no problem!"

At these words, Dugu Bo's pupils sharply contracted. His face couldn't hide his excitement, and his voice trembled: "Lu Chen, is everything you said true?"

Lu Chen nodded.

The snake venom on Dugu Bo and Dugu Yan came from their martial soul. In short, the Jade Phosphorous Serpent martial soul had a flaw that caused backlash on the soul master during cultivation.

As long as they used an immortal grass or pill to evolve the martial soul, the problem would be solved. It would also completely evolve their bloodline, sparing future generations from the harm of the Jade Phosphorous Serpent martial soul!

In the original work, Tang San's method of forcing the poison into a soul bone seemed laughable to Lu Chen.

A soul bone's capacity was extremely limited. Using that method to solve Dugu Bo's snake venom would directly cut off Dugu Bo's future path of advancement.

Tang San only knew how to play with poison—what did he know about immortal grasses!

Seeing Lu Chen's confident demeanor, Dugu Bo took a deep breath and promised, "If you can truly solve the snake venom problem, I agree to help you with three things. Three things that don't cross my bottom line."

Lu Chen walked slowly toward the spring water, the names of the surrounding immortal grasses clearly surfacing in his mind: Singular Velvet Sky Chrysanthemum, Water Immortal Jade Muscle Bone, Aromatic Silk Beauty, Full Moon Wearing Autumn Dew, Earth Dragon Golden Melon...

The moment he reached the edge of the spring, two auras—scorching fire body and piercing cold bone—struck him simultaneously.

A flash of blood light flickered around Lu Chen, isolating the two forces.

Dugu Bo warned, "Lu Chen, be extremely careful. Even I dare not set foot in that spring water."

Lu Chen nodded in acknowledgment and said to Dugu Bo, "Senior Dugu, do you have a medicine furnace? I need to refine a pill first before I can pick the immortal grass for Dugu Yan!"

Dugu Bo nodded and retrieved a verdant green medicine furnace from his soul tool, tossing it to Lu Chen.

Lu Chen set the furnace above the scorching Yang Spring. He had no choice—he couldn't use fire himself, so he had to rely on the Yang Spring to refine the pill.

Using the appropriate technique, he tossed the Octagonal Mysterious Ice Grass and Infernal Delicate Apricot into the furnace.

The moment they made contact, two completely different energies clashed inside the furnace.

Without hesitation, Lu Chen plucked a large purple chrysanthemum and threw it in.

From the top of the Singular Velvet Sky Chrysanthemum's stamen, a faint golden light rose, gently separating the two opposing energies.

The furnace, which had been on the verge of exploding, instantly calmed.

He then added several more herbs, and the three forces slowly circulated within the furnace, gradually becoming balanced.

Next, Lu Chen walked to a pure white like jade spirit grass. Its leaves had no obvious veins, its stem was as thin as hair, and it looked extremely similar to ordinary grass.

If not for the knowledge from the Medicine God Dan Shu Jing, Lu Chen might never have discovered this Primordial Immortal Grass.

The moment the Primordial Immortal Grass fell into the furnace, the three immortal grass energies that had been contending separately instantly merged with it, turning into a pool of milky white liquid.

Lu Chen then moved to another immortal grass.

This plant was about three feet tall, with sword-shaped leaves gleaming with a cyan gold metallic sheen. Red and blue patterns flowed along their edges. The central stamen was a blood-colored rhombus crystal, and its sword-hilt-like roots were deeply embedded in the soil of the Ice Fire Two Elements Spring.

This immortal grass was called the Sword Soul Blood Heart Ganoderma!

The moment the Sword Soul Blood Heart Ganoderma entered the furnace, the milky white liquid suddenly boiled, bubbling loudly.

Immediately after, a dazzling red light shot out from the furnace, condensing into a blood-colored light sword that stabbed toward Lu Chen.

Lu Chen formed a sword finger with the index and middle fingers of his right hand and flicked a drop of his essence blood toward the blood-colored light sword.

The blood-colored light sword quickly devoured Lu Chen's essence blood, transforming into a streak of light that merged back into the furnace.

Lu Chen mobilized his soul power and infused it into the furnace. The power of the Four Great Immortal Herbs boiled within.

The pill he was refining was called the "Primal Chaos Sword Soul Pill"!

Three hours later, a pill burst out of the furnace and fled into the air.

The pill was entirely semi-transparent with a glazed texture, its surface flowing with two kinds of extreme patterns.

Two patterns interwove on the pill's surface into a Yin Yang Tai Chi Pattern, a layer of golden glow condensing at their point of fusion.

At the pill's core floated a blood bead the size of a grain of rice, its luster like a ruby, its halo seeming to emit faint sword cries as it rippled.

The Primal Chaos Sword Soul Pill flew before Lu Chen as if possessed of its own intelligence.

Lu Chen opened his mouth and swallowed it into his belly. In an instant, the sword intent of the Asura Demon Sword erupted from within him, coalescing into a Blood Colored Light Pillar that shot straight into the sky.

Sensing the sword qi rampaging inside him, Lu Chen stepped into the spring water without a moment's hesitation.

Dugu Yan panicked at the sight. "Grandfather! Lu Chen, he—"

Dugu Bo blocked his granddaughter, who was about to rush forward, and said solemnly, "That kid Lu Chen entered the spring on purpose. What kind of pill did he just refine, that he needs the Ice Fire Two Elements Spring's power to suppress it?"

Inside the spring, Lu Chen was wrapped in blood light. In his abdomen, the Primal Chaos Sword Soul Pill flickered with a red crimson glow, clashing and intertwining with the Ice Fire Power in the spring water...

It was like forging a peerless sword: the ice fire spring water served as the quenching cold pond and the melting furnace, the sword intent was the fine steel to be forged, and the Primal Chaos Sword Soul Pill was the hand wielding hammer and anvil...
