Ice and Fire Golden Body! The Ultimate Poison and the Fusion of Ice and Fire, Ice Poison and Fire Poison?! (Seeking Collection!)

It has been two whole months!

Ever since Dugu Yan jumped down, there had been no movement on the water's surface, save for a few bubbles that surfaced occasionally.

If not for Yu Nan constantly assuring him that Dugu Yan's vital signs were stable, Dugu Bo would have likely gone mad and drained this entire pool dry.

"Senior... it has been two months. Yan-er, she..."

Dugu Bo's voice was hoarse and trembled slightly as he asked in his heart.

"What is the rush? We have reached the critical moment."

Yu Nan's voice remained languid, but if one listened closely, a hint of solemnity could be detected:

"This girl's physical foundation was worse than I imagined, so it took a bit longer to fuse the two immortal herbs.

However, after long accumulation comes a great breakthrough; this is the moment she breaks from her cocoon to become a butterfly!"

No sooner had the words fallen.

The Ice and Fire Yin-Yang Well, previously as calm as a mirror, suddenly erupted without warning!

Gurgle, gurgle--!

Massive bubbles surged madly from the bottom of the pool, as if the entire body of water were being boiled.

Immediately following, the red and white spring water began to spin violently, forming a massive vortex.

Extreme cold and terrifying heat waves collided, compressed, and fused within the center of the vortex!

BOOM--!!!

A pillar of light, interwoven with red and blue and faintly shimmering with a brilliant golden glow, suddenly shot up from the center of the vortex, piercing straight into the clouds!

Within this pillar of light, a slender yet powerful figure emerged from the waves like a True Dragon rising from the water!

"Yan-er!"

Dugu Bo stood up abruptly, stumbling slightly in his agitation.

High in the air, Dugu Yan's long hair danced wildly.

Having been soaked in the spring for two full months, the inner armor she had worn had long since vanished under the erosion of the ice and fire energies.

Yet, at this moment, there was no awkwardness of exposure.

Because of her skin!

That originally fair and delicate skin now radiated a strange luster, as lustrous as jade and as tough as gold.

A layer of faint, purple-gold dragon scale patterns shimmered beneath her skin.

Like the most perfect natural armor, it covered her vital parts, appearing both sacred and bewitching.

Water droplets landing on her could not linger; like mercury rolling off a lotus leaf, they slid off instantly.

"Hah--!"

Dugu Yan snapped her eyes open in mid-air.

Her left eye was ice-blue, her right eye fire-red!

Then, these two lights vanished instantly, replaced by noble, purple-gold vertical pupils.

She let out a soft cry, stretched her body elegantly in the air, and landed lightly on the bank.

She did not use soul power to protect herself, nor did she summon her martial soul.

She simply stood barefoot, stepping onto the ground beside the Ice and Fire Yin-Yang Well, where the scorching heat and extreme cold alternated.

Hiss!!!

A wisp of white smoke rose from the ground where she landed.

Yet Dugu Yan's expression remained unchanged, as if she were stepping on a carpet in her own home, feeling no discomfort whatsoever.

"This... this is..."

Dugu Yan raised her hands in disbelief, looking at her own crystal-clear arms, which seemed to contain infinite explosive power.

She could clearly feel that the terrifying ice and fire aura surrounding her—which had previously made her feel suffocated—had now become incredibly intimate.

It was as if she were the master of this ice and fire!

Moreover, the Poison Dragon bloodline within her, which had once been somewhat restless, had been completely tempered over these two months.

It had now thoroughly fused with her body, becoming one and the same.

"How does it feel?"

Yu Nan's phantom slowly manifested, circling Dugu Yan once before commenting with satisfaction:

"Skin like ice and snow, bones like refined gold."

"Impervious to water and fire, immune to all poisons."

"Congratulations, girl. You have achieved one of the world's top-tier physiques: the Ice and Fire Golden Body!"

"Ice and Fire... Golden Body?"

Dugu Yan murmured to herself, feeling the Bloodline Power surging through her body like a river, her eyes filled with shock.

She casually threw a punch at the rock beside her.

She did not use any soul power, relying solely on the strength of her physical body.

Bang!

A muffled thud echoed out.

That piece of hard granite was actually smashed by her punch, leaving a fist-shaped crater several inches deep.

The surrounding area was covered in spiderweb-like cracks!

"This strength... it has increased by at least several times!"

Dugu Yan looked at Dugu Bo with pleasant surprise:

"Grandfather!

I succeeded!

I am no longer afraid of the spring water here, and my body... it feels so strong!"

Dugu Bo was already streaming with tears of joy, rushing forward as if to embrace Dugu Yan.

Yet, wary of her current strange state, he could only stand there at a loss, nodding repeatedly:

"Good!

Good!

Good!"

"As long as you are alive, it is good! Getting stronger is good!"

"Many thanks, Senior! Many thanks for your grace in remaking her!"

As Dugu Bo spoke, he actually prepared to kneel before the phantom of Yu Nan.

At this moment, he was truly convinced.

If he had been driven by fear and self-interest before, he was now completely won over by Yu Nan's ability to turn decay into magic.

And, he felt a hint of admiration!

He had intended to kill Yu Nan.

Yet Yu Nan, left with no choice, had sacrificed for Dugu Yan.

He had even been thinking of Dugu Yan's future, wanting to cultivate her into a god!

"Enough, don't bother with these empty gestures."

Yu Nan waved his hand, and a gentle force held Dugu Bo upright:

"This girl's physical foundation is now well-laid; there will be no risk of her body exploding when absorbing soul rings or soul bones in the future."

"However, this is only the beginning."

Yu Nan drifted in front of Dugu Yan, pointed at her heterochromatic eyes, and a playful smile curled his lips:

"Girl, since you have mastered the Ice and Fire Golden Body, then your Jade Phosphorous Serpent venom...

Oh no, it is now Poison Dragon Venom, so it should change accordingly."

"You now possess not only the ultimate poison within you, but you have also fused the ultimate ice and the ultimate fire."

"Try to mobilize your soul power and see if there are any surprises."

Hearing this, Dugu Yan took a deep breath and slowly raised her right hand, which was now covered in faint dragon-scale patterns.

With a thought, her soul power surged forth.

Previously, her soul power had been a deep purple, carrying a nauseating, fishy sweetness.

But now...

"Hum—"

As she mobilized her soul power, a strange energy condensed in her palm.

It still held the base of purple, representing deadly poison.

But within that purple, two distinct currents were clearly intertwined.

One was a crystalline ice-blue, radiating a bone-chilling cold;

The other was a scorching, violent crimson, flickering with explosive firelight.

Ice and fire, two attributes that were originally absolutely repulsive to one another.

At this moment, under the reconciliation of that domineering purple-gold venom, they coexisted in a bizarre and perfect harmony.

A slowly rotating tricolor cyclone formed.

"Go!"

Dugu Yan let out a sharp cry, flicking the mass of swirling energy toward a nearby Ironwood tree that required three people to encircle.

There was no earth-shattering explosion.

The moment the tricolor cyclone touched the trunk, it sank into the wood without a sound.

The next second, a scene that made one's scalp tingle unfolded.

Crack, crack, crack—

The left half of the massive Ironwood was instantly encased in a thick layer of solid ice, its leaves frozen into ice sculptures in an instant.

Meanwhile, the right half erupted into a raging inferno, the bark instantly charring and curling under the intense heat.
