Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well
The next day, Huo Yuhao and his group appeared on time outside the majestic main gate of the Shrek Academy.
The morning breeze, still carrying the chill of the night dew, swept across the open square in front of the school gate, ruffling the hems of the clothes and strands of hair of several boys.
They didn't have to wait long before two figures emerged side by side from the depths of the academy; it was Zang Xin and Ya Li.
It was only then that Huo Yuhao and the others learned that the Holy Spirit Douluo would accompany them throughout their trip.
The group boarded a large Soul Guidance Bus prepared in advance by the academy and headed straight for the Soul Train station.
Their final destination was Heaven Dou City.
Three hours later, the group got off at Tiandou Station and boarded vehicles arranged by the Tang Sect.
After the vehicle smoothly drove out of the city, the windows silently turned black, blocking everyone's view.
This is a secret method of the Tang Sect. The Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well is the most core forbidden area of the Tang Sect, and even disciples of the Tang Sect itself may not be qualified to know the route to it.
However, all of this was meaningless to Huo Yuhao.
The vehicle was indeed engraved with Soul Guidance Array that restricted Divine Power, and it was of a fairly high grade.
Ordinary Soul Master, even ordinary Soul Saint, cannot fully utilize their Divine Power under the suppression of this formation.
However, Huo Yuhao's Current Mental Power entered the Spirit Domain Realm. These so-called spiritual restriction formations are nothing more than a thin veil to him, which he can easily lift to see through everything behind them.
About an hour later, the vehicle finally came to a slow stop.
The group filed out, stepping onto the soft layer of fallen leaves and looking around.
As far as the eye can see, there is a primeval forest that blocks out the sky.
The trunks of these towering trees are so thick that it takes several people to encircle them, and their dense canopies spread out in layers, with only a few golden rays of sunlight filtering through the gaps.
Zang Xin glanced at the crowd and simply uttered two words: "Follow up."
After saying that, he turned and walked into the depths of the dense forest. No one dared to delay, and they all followed closely behind.
There were no paths or signs in the forest, but Zang Xin's steps were steady and he walked for about two hours through the winding paths.
After passing another ancient tree, Huo Yuhao narrowed his eyes slightly.
He clearly sensed that the scenery around him was starting to look strange; he seemed to have stepped into a sophisticated illusion, one that even his Divine Power couldn't penetrate.
Just as he was pondering this to himself, Zang Xin suddenly stopped in his tracks.
He turned around to face the crowd, his usually gentle and smiling face now filled with an unprecedented seriousness.
"From now on, follow my lead closely, and don't make a single wrong step."
"The woodlands in this area are full of highly poisonous plants. One wrong step and you could be in serious trouble if you get poisoned."
No one would joke about their own life, and everyone nodded seriously as Zang Xin finished speaking.
Huo Yuhao held Gu Yue's small hand and followed closely behind Zang Xin.
Following them were Na'er, Tang Wulin, Xu Xiaoyan, and Xie Xie, with Holy Spirit Douluo Ya Li at the very end of the group.
At that moment, an old yet familiar voice suddenly rang in Huo Yuhao's mind.
"That illusion array we just saw was no ordinary formation; it contained a trace of God Level power. We must be extra careful from now on."
Huo Yuhao did not stop, but his pupils contracted almost imperceptibly for a moment.
He suddenly remembered that Aunt Leng had said that Tang San was the first to discover the Yin-Yang Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well.
Therefore, it is highly likely that the God Level formation here was personally set up by Tang San.
Before long, the dense forest ahead suddenly cleared up, as if an invisible knife had sliced through their vision. The ancient trees that blocked out the sky disappeared completely in just a few steps, and they arrived at the edge of a cliff.
Zang Xin stopped at the edge of the cliff and turned around.
The next moment, a gentle force, like an invisible hand, steadily supported everyone and surrounded Zang Xin.
Zang Xin took a step off the cliff, leading everyone down into the valley below.
Huo Yuhao looked down and saw a layer of seven-colored mist below, which refracted countless tiny points of light under the sunlight, making it so beautiful it was almost dreamlike.
Zang Xin raised his hand and waved it, and a pale golden light shield appeared out of thin air, enveloping everyone in it.
Then, he led everyone and slowly sank into the colorful mist.
The moment it came into contact with the mist, a chilling change occurred on the surface of the pale golden light shield.
The once smooth, mirror-like light barrier suddenly began to sprout countless pits, accompanied by a faint hissing sound, as if something invisible was frantically gnawing at the surface of the light shield.
The corrosion marks spread rapidly, and golden light flashed across the light shield from time to time, barely repairing the eroded parts.
The pits and bumps, so numerous and dense, were enough to make one's scalp tingle.
Clearly, this seven-colored mist is far from as beautiful as it appears.
Everyone couldn't help but gasp inwardly. If it weren't for Zang Xin's protective aura, they would have been reduced to ashes within a few breaths if they had rushed directly into this fog.
The name of the Tang Sect Forbidden Grounds is indeed well-deserved.
Fortunately, while the fog was deadly, it wasn't excessively thick.
Zang Xin controlled his descent speed, and the golden light shield steadily traversed the colorful mist, covering a distance of several dozen meters in the time it takes to breathe.
Finally, the surrounding seven-colored light suddenly disappeared.
The world outside the light shield suddenly brightened, and vision became clear and transparent again.
Below the canyon lay a breathtakingly beautiful scene they had never seen before.
In the center of the valley, a lake lies quietly.
The lake wasn't very large, but it was strangely divided into two completely different colors: one half was ice blue, and the other half was crimson.
The two colors of lake water meet in the middle without any obstruction, yet they are as distinct as two gemstones cut apart by fate, remaining untouched by each other.
"The Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well, "Huo Yuhao murmured the name to himself, suddenly finding it perfectly fitting.
Around the lake, all sorts of exotic flowers and plants grow.
Huo Yuhao's Divine Power quietly spread out, and many of these flowers and plants were surrounded by extremely strong energy fluctuations.
These are not ordinary herbs, but truly rare and precious natural treasures.
Zang Xin led everyone to land steadily on the shore of the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well, where everyone curiously looked around at everything.
The air suddenly became thick and sticky, and the gentle breeze that had been caressing our faces seemed to be abruptly stopped by an invisible hand.
Huo Yuhao frowned slightly, a hint of doubt rising in his heart.
This is forbidden territory of the Tang Sect. Could there be enemies here?
However, when he looked at Zang Xin, he found that there was no surprise on that gentle and refined face, as if all of this was within his expectations.
The next moment, Zang Xin's aura surged forth.
In just a few breaths, the several waves of oppressive force that came at them were shattered layer by layer by Zang Xin's aura.
Before long, six figures slowly emerged from the distance.
With Huo Yuhao's Divine Power, he could tell at a glance that they were not human, but plant-type Soul Beast.
The ability to transform into human form signifies that their cultivation has reached the level of Ferocious Beast.
Zang Xin, however, greeted him with a smile, as if he were seeing an old acquaintance, and exchanged a few pleasantries.
However, the attitude of the six Ferocious Beast opposite them was not very good.
When Zang Xin uttered the words "obtain the Immortal Herb," the six Ferocious Beast opposite him all changed color.
The purple-clad man at the head of the group stared at Zang Xin, his voice not loud, but carrying an undisguised hostility.
"According to our agreement with the Tang Sect, only one person can enter the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well every hundred years."
He paused, as if suppressing some surging emotion, his face ashen. "Now, it hasn't even been a hundred years since the last time."
His gaze swept over the six teenagers behind Zang Xin, and he said, "And this time, you actually brought six people with you!"
