As the Tongyuan Flower spirit ring completely merged into Su Wen's body, this first spirit ring was finally absorbed.

"Hoo~"

Taking a deep breath and opening his eyes, he found Ye Yuan'er's concerned, beautiful face inches away.

"How do you feel?"

Ye Yuan'er raised her snow-white wrists, her jade-like hands wiping the beads of sweat from his forehead.

"Bloated, full of power. I feel like I could plow two acres of land and not even be tired!"

Su Wen was quite excited; the power of a six-hundred-year spirit ring had pushed him directly to level twelve.

"Pfft!"

Ye Yuan'er couldn't help but laugh, then looked at him with immense pride: "A six-hundred-year first spirit ring—my little Wen might be the first person on the continent to achieve this!"

"What is your spirit skill?"

Su Wen carefully sensed his first spirit ring before replying: "Underworld Marriage!"

Ye Yuan'er: "?"

"I can forcibly sign a soul marriage contract with a deceased creature. Ignoring race and rules, I can forcibly summon their soul into my first spirit skill. From then on, our lives are bound together. They retain all memories and combat experience from their life and can temporarily manifest a physical body. Their spirit power is equal to mine; if I am level twenty, she is level twenty. If I become a Title Douluo, she will be a Title Douluo as well."

"If I die, she dies. If she is killed in battle, she will return to my first spirit skill, with a one-month cooldown before she can be resurrected."

"The activation condition for this spirit skill is that I must be within one meter of the creature's corpse."

Su Wen's spirit ring didn't grant him any direct combat power, but it was exceptionally unique.

As long as it was a deceased creature, even if only a remnant consciousness remained, they could not refuse.

He remembered that the Ice and Fire Yin-Yang Spring was formed by the Ice and Fire Dragon King; there had to be a mother dragon in there!

"Ah, this..."

Ye Yuan'er gasped in amazement. If he could get his hands on a Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Beast...

Given the powerful physique of a Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Beast, once little Wen became a Title Douluo, she could take on three or four Title Douluo-level powerhouses alone.

After the surprise, she inexplicably felt a sense of unease.

"Little Wen, don't tell anyone about this spirit skill for now. Let's go, let's head back first."

Ye Yuan'er summoned her Blazing Spirit Kite. Since the spirit ring had been obtained, there was no need to linger here any longer.

She took his hand and they rose into the air, both stepping onto the martial soul, preparing to return the way they came.

"Aunt Ye, there is a misty valley over there. Remember the location."

Su Wen kept his eyes fixed on the forest below. He had specifically come to the Sunset Forest to find the location of the Ice and Fire Yin-Yang Spring.

The Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well was located in a valley, and the valley was surrounded by a mass of poisonous mist.

It was very easy to spot.

As one of the three great treasure basins of the Douluo Continent.

It was an important opportunity for the Shrek Seven Devils to become gods.

Naturally, Su Wen could not let it slip by.

At this time, Dugu Bo had certainly already occupied the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well.

With his temper, he was not easy to talk to; even Tang San had nearly died at his hands.

Although Dugu Bo was a Title Douluo, he was known as the weakest of them. As an eighty-ninth-level Spirit Douluo, Ye Yuan'er was fully capable of fighting him, but with him in tow, Ye Yuan'er would certainly be distracted.

Su Wen could only wait for Ye Yuan'er to break through to Title Douluo before coming back to take the Immortal Herbs.

"Is there something there?"

Ye Yuan'er suddenly flew toward the valley filled with poisonous mist.

Chapter 4: Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well

Blazing flames ignited around Ye Yuan'er, shielding her and Su Wen as they descended slowly toward the valley floor.

The approaching poisonous mist was burned away by the flames, and some of it even evaporated before it could get close.

Ye Yuan'er moved quickly, standing in the valley within two breaths.

Her beautiful eyes scanned the scene in the valley, and she froze in place after just one look.

The valley was covered in vines, and beneath the vines was a hot spring, the water colored milky white and scarlet.

The two types of spring water were close but did not cross into each other's territory, creating a unique sight.

Even standing at a distance, Ye Yuan'er could clearly feel the two distinct auras of extreme heat and extreme cold radiating from the water, giving off a sense of extreme danger.

"Aunt Ye, why did you come straight in?"

"Ah? Didn't you ask me to remember this place? How could I remember it if I didn't come in?"

Ye Yuan'er looked around curiously: "Little Wen, what is this place? I feel like the spiritual energy here is so dense, though the extreme cold and extreme heat are a bit intense. Cultivating here for a long time could be beneficial, but it would also be easy to damage one's foundation!"

Su Wen did not answer immediately, instead watching his surroundings vigilantly: "Aunt Ye, be careful. Someone should be living here—it might even be a Title Douluo!"

Ye Yuan'er was already on guard, and hearing Su Wen's words, her vigilance reached its peak.

Title Douluo were all famous figures on the continent.

Their numbers were extremely scarce.

This place was relatively close to Tiandou City.

There was a Poison Douluo in the city who specialized in poison arts and had a very poor relationship with Martial Soul Hall.

"Little Wen, how do you know there is a Title Douluo?"

Ye Yuan'er used her spiritual power to probe the surroundings; she didn't discover anything, but she did find traces of someone having lived there.

"Hehe, I guessed it. Aunt Ye, if there's no one here, let's hurry down and pick some things. I've seen this place in a book before; it's definitely a treasure land, filled with rare natural treasures."

Su Wen could also tell.

Dugu Bo was not here.

Otherwise, given his temper, he would have rushed out long ago upon seeing a Spirit Douluo trespassing on his territory.

The two arrived near the spring, where all sorts of strange flowers grew in abundance.

There were over a hundred of them, and Su Wen spotted the Singular Velvet Sky Chrysanthemum.

Even without having seen the Immortal Herb Catalog, he could identify it by its chrysanthemum shape.

Besides these, Su Wen also saw other immortal herbs from the original story.

Next to these immortal herbs, there was a small plot of land cleared by human hands, planted with many medicinal herbs, which must have been cultivated separately by Dugu Bo.

"Little Wen, someone has indeed stayed here. These turned-over soils are all planted with poisonous herbs. Could this really be the territory of the Poison Douluo?"

Ye Yuan'er was somewhat worried. Although Dugu Bo was called the weakest Title Douluo, he was still a Title Douluo. If they really had to fight, the outcome would be an unknown.

"It might really be. Aunt Ye, you aren't scared, are you?"

"Go on, go on, your aunt has never been afraid of anyone."

"Hehe, Aunt Ye, do you know what this place is? I've read in books that everything beside the spring is an immortal herb."

Su Wen explained the benefits of the Ice and Fire Yin-Yang Spring to Ye Yuan'er, noting that every immortal herb was uniquely gifted by heaven and earth.

After consuming them, not to mention the potential to become a god, one would certainly reach the level of a Title Douluo.

If asked how he knew, Su Wen pushed it all onto books; as for which books, he had read too many to remember which one it was.

"Aunt Ye, although I can't recognize them all, I do recognize a few!"

Su Wen pointed to two immortal herbs beside the spring; one was fiery red throughout and shaped like a cabbage, while the other was a large, white, octagonal flower with ice-crystal-like stamens in the center.

"These two are the Octagonal Mysterious Ice Grass and the Infernal Delicate Apricot. Consuming either one alone is highly toxic, but taking them together grants a body immune to all poisons, immunity to ice and fire, and ice-fire body tempering. If I consume them, my second Spirit Ring will definitely be purple."

"And that large chrysanthemum, isn't it exactly the same as Chrysanthemum Douluo's martial soul? It is also a top-tier immortal herb, the Singular Velvet Sky Chrysanthemum. Consuming it can clear the eight extraordinary meridians and cultivate an indestructible body."

"The Cockscomb Phoenix Sunflower, the Lovesick Heartbreak Red, the Full Moon Wearing Autumn Dew, the Aromatic Silk Beauty, the Eight-Petal Immortal Orchid..."

"Besides these, there are many I don't recognize, but I'm sure they are all immortal herbs or close to it."

Su Wen remembered the immortal herbs from the original story roughly, but he didn't recognize the rest.

Ye Yuan'er listened in a daze, never expecting these flowers to have such powerful effects.

Reaching the hundredth level to become a god—a concept that only existed in legends—could actually be achieved by chance through an immortal herb.

If an ordinary person had said this, she might have been skeptical.

But Su Wen was different.

He was her most important relative.

Ye Yuan'er subconsciously asked, "Then, what should we do now?"

"We aren't prepared at all, we didn't even bring harvesting tools... but we can't come for nothing!"

Su Wen trotted over to the Cockscomb Phoenix Sunflower and crouched down.

He dug it out along with the soil.

After finishing, he restored the scene to ensure there wasn't a trace left behind.

Then he went to the Eight-Petal Immortal Orchid and dug it out with the soil as well.

"Aunt Ye, let's go first. We'll take the rest of the immortal herbs next time."

Su Wen was determined to have the immortal herbs.

Since he had already found the place, he could just come back prepared next time.

"Mm!"

Ye Yuan'er responded, knowing they couldn't stay here long; Dugu Bo could return at any moment.

She carefully cleared away any traces they might have left, then used her spirit power to support Su Wen, stood on her Blazing Spirit Kite, and the two quickly left the Ice and Fire Yin-Yang Well.

After leaving the Sunset Forest and flying several hundred miles away, Su Wen finally breathed a sigh of relief; Dugu Bo shouldn't have discovered them.
