Crossing Douluo: Rules Are Meant to Be Broken!

Inside the Ice-Fire Dual Instrument Eye.

Half an hour passed in the blink of an eye.

Su Hui's storage Soul Tool was already stuffed with various immortal herbs.

"Octagonal Mysterious Ice Grass, Infernal Delicate Apricot, Lovesick Heartbreak Red, Ink Jade Divine Bamboo..."

He muttered to himself while collecting the immortal herbs, ensuring he hadn't missed a single top-tier immortal treasure.

While he was at it, he also scavenged every top-grade herb growing in the surrounding area.

Every single one of these herbs was a masterpiece; any one of them could fetch an astronomical price at an auction.

Su Hui's gaze finally landed on the pool of the Ice-Fire Dual Instrument Eye before him.

"Is the water of this Ice-Fire Dual Instrument Eye perhaps useful as well?"

It would be a real pity not to take some with him.

He had just stepped toward the edge of the pool.

"Hiss! So hot!"

The Silver Dragon Spear mark on the palm of his left hand suddenly emitted a violent, searing heat.

With a flash of silver light, the Silver Dragon Spear shot directly out from the mark.

Before Su Hui could react, with a splash, the Silver Dragon Spear plunged into the water of the Ice-Fire Dual Instrument Eye and vanished from sight in an instant.

This sudden turn of events left Su Hui frozen in place.

A few breaths later, he finally regained his senses.

"The Silver Dragon Spear is the life-bound divine artifact of the Silver Dragon King, deeply bound to the origin of the Dragon Race."

"The original text of Douluo Continent mentioned that the reason the Ice-Fire Dual Instrument Eye formed was because the Water Dragon King and the Fire Dragon King, two kings of the Dragon Race, fell here. The origin power of their remains nourished this land, creating this treasure land of extreme attributes."

"It must have sensed the origin aura of the Water and Fire Dragon Kings and dived in on its own."

As soon as the thought crossed his mind, a cold sweat broke out on Su Hui's back.

"Oh no."

He had no idea when it would come back out.

He had even less of an idea when Dugu Bo would return.

This was Dugu Bo's territory.

Every extra second he stayed meant an extra risk of being caught red-handed by a Titled Douluo.

Yet, there was no way he could abandon the Silver Dragon Spear and run away.

In the current situation, all he could do was cautiously wait by the pool.

Half an hour passed.

The pool water continued to swirl with red and blue halos, but there was not a single sign of the Silver Dragon Spear.

Su Hui's heart beat faster and faster.

"If it doesn't come out soon, Dugu Bo really will be back!"

He channeled his soul power and called out to the Silver Dragon Spear within the pool.

Suddenly, a streak of silver light broke through the water and zipped right in front of Su Hui.

The Silver Dragon Spear had returned!

Su Hui's eyes immediately locked onto the spear, and he noticed the changes at a single glance.

Of the twelve empty grooves on the spear's body, two had been completely filled.

A clear blue gemstone.

A scorching red gemstone.

They were embedded in the grooves, perfectly fused with the spear, and glowing with a resonant aura.

At just one look, Su Hui knew these gems were extraordinary.

These two gems were definitely related to the origins of the Water and Fire Dragon Kings!

"Did the Silver Dragon Spear absorb the residual origin power of the Water and Fire Dragon Kings during this trip and undergo a transformation?"

Su Hui's voice was filled with unconcealable surprise and delight.

But now was definitely not the time to study this.

With a thought, the Silver Dragon Spear instantly retracted into the mark on his left hand.

Without breaking stride, Su Hui rushed toward the Anywhere Door not far away and stepped through it without a single glance back.

With a soft click, the Anywhere Door slowly closed.

It vanished completely into the air, entering a one-year cooldown period.

The very moment the Anywhere Door vanished completely.

"BOOM!!!"

A green figure tore through the sky, landing at high speed beside the pool of the Ice-Fire Dual Instrument Eye.

Poison Douluo Dugu Bo had returned!

His cold, viper-like gaze swept across the devastated herb garden.

He discovered that the spots where various medicinal herbs once grew were now nothing but bare, empty soil.

He realized what had happened in an instant.

"Damn it! Someone actually dared to break into my garden and steal my herbs!"

"BOOM!!!"

The terrifying pressure of a Title Douluo erupted from Dugu Bo's body.

Emerald poisonous mist swept across the entire Ice-Fire Dual Instrument Eye, causing the surrounding vegetation to wither into ash instantly.

Dugu Bo fell into a state of extreme, unbridled rage.

Meanwhile, Su Hui had already returned to the primeval forest outside Skywater City.

He had no idea about Dugu Bo's impotent fury back at the Ice-Fire Dual Instrument Eye.

At this moment, the blood in his entire body was boiling, and his fingertips were trembling with excitement.

"This extraction is absolutely the peak performance of a 'knife-runner,' a true million-gold haul!"

"Hahaha, all the immortal herbs that were supposed to belong to Tang San in the original work are now all in my storage Soul Tool!"

Su Hui truly experienced the thrill of a massive windfall from a successful raid.

He sat down cross-legged.

He took all the immortal herbs out of his storage ring and spread them on the ground in front of him.

After some screening, he selected the four immortal herbs best suited for himself.

The first: Octagonal Mysterious Ice Grass.

The second: Infernal Delicate Apricot.

"These two immortal herbs carry the origin power of Ultimate Ice and Ultimate Fire respectively; they are a perfect match for my Silver Dragon King martial soul."

The Silver Dragon King already controlled the seven elements of the world, so naturally, it could also control ultimate elements.

The third: Singular Velvet Sky Chrysanthemum.

The core effect of the Singular Velvet Sky Chrysanthemum was to consolidate one's foundation and temper the muscles, bones, and physical body.

Simply put, it strengthened a soul master's physical fitness to an inhuman level.

"This thing is perfect for replacing the role of Whale Rubber to solidify my physical foundation."

The fourth: Full Moon Wearing Autumn Dew.

Su Hui remembered that this was a purely auxiliary immortal herb, with its core function being the enhancement of spiritual power.

Spiritual power was the foundation of a soul master.

Soul rings over ten thousand years old required powerful spiritual power to resist soul shocks.

It could be said that all these immortal herbs were of great use to him, and each had different effects.

Su Hui was dying of greed, wishing he could consume them all at once.

As soon as the thought crossed his mind, a thorny problem presented itself.

Su Hui was very distressed.

Douluo Continent had a bizarre rule: a soul master could only consume one immortal herb.

"In the original work, only Tang San could absorb the Octagonal Mysterious Ice Grass and the Infernal Delicate Apricot at the same time, along with a special auxiliary herb like the Full Moon Wearing Autumn Dew."

"But he relied on the special method of soaking in the spring water of the Ice-Fire Dual Instrument Eye to neutralize the extreme medicinal power of the ice and fire herbs, which took him several full days."

"Now that the Anywhere Door has entered its cooldown period, there is no way I can return to the Ice-Fire Dual Instrument Eye."

"Even if I could go back, I wouldn't have the guts to spend several days absorbing the herbs while Dugu Bo could return at any moment; that would be no different from seeking death."

Just as he was struggling with his dilemma, the mark on his left hand grew hot again.

With a flash of silver light, the Silver Dragon Spear flew out.

"Hm?"

Su Hui saw that on the shaft of the Silver Dragon Spear, the sapphire and ruby lit up simultaneously.

Two red and blue beams of light enveloped the Octagonal Mysterious Ice Grass and the Infernal Delicate Apricot on the ground, respectively.

Then, a miraculous thing happened.

Visible to the naked eye, the origin energy of the ultimate ice and fire within the two herbs was continuously sucked into the two gemstones.

Under Su Hui's astonished gaze, the Octagonal Mysterious Ice Grass and the Infernal Delicate Apricot slowly faded from their original immortal luster, finally turning completely into a handful of dust.

"???"

"What is going on? Did the Silver Dragon Spear absorb my immortal herb?"

Before Su Hui could react.

The red and blue gemstones embedded in the shaft of the Silver Dragon Spear simultaneously shot two gentle beams of red and blue energy toward him.

Su Hui was struck with alarm.

"Holy crap, you aren't going to eat me too, are you?"

His first instinct was to dodge.

However, the beams merged into his body with incredible speed.

His body was instantly plunged into a state intertwined with ice and fire.

Extreme cold and scorching heat flowed through his meridians.

Yet, strangely, there was no backlash.

Instead, guided by some unknown force, it gently nourished his meridians and the origin of his martial soul.

Sensing no danger, Su Hui quickly realized a possibility.

"The Silver Dragon Spear is helping me!"

"It is neutralizing the extreme medicinal power of the Ice and Fire immortal herbs for me, completely eliminating the risk of them clashing!"

Su Hui understood in an instant.

He gritted his teeth.

He immediately reached out to pick up the Singular Velvet Sky Chrysanthemum, stuffed all its petals and stamen into his mouth, chewed them into a pulp, and swallowed.

Immediately after, he picked up the Full Moon Wearing Autumn Dew.

He precisely dripped the crystalline dew condensed on the leaves onto his eyes.

Once finished, he sat cross-legged and focused all his attention on guiding the medicinal power within his body.

Regardless of whether only one immortal herb could truly take effect.

Eat first, worry later!
