Ice and Fire Refined Golden Body, Anomalies Manifest

Because the two immortal herbs would only maintain their medicinal efficacy for ten breaths after their auras converged.

Yu Tianchen did not hesitate, picking up the immortal herbs and stuffing them into his mouth.

The immortal herbs melted the moment they touched his tongue, and a refreshing fragrance bloomed within his mouth.

Yu Tianchen had no time to savor the sensation; he quickly placed the note he had prepared in advance on top of his Soul Tool to prevent Yu Yuanzhen from worrying.

He had just set the note down.

Overbearing extreme heat and extreme cold suddenly surged from his body.

It was kicking in!

Yu Tianchen gritted his teeth and stood up, locked his eyes on the intersection of the Cold Extreme Yin Spring and the Scorching Yang Spring, and jumped straight in.

After plunging into the pool.

Yu Tianchen's clothes could not even withstand the environment for an instant, immediately disintegrating into a pile of ice crystals and fly ash.

The spring water, alternating between extreme cold and extreme heat, responded to the extreme cold and extreme heat forces constantly alternating within Yu Tianchen's body, relentlessly battering his physical form.

Yu Tianchen forced himself to maintain consciousness, beginning to circulate the Great Sun Thunder Body technique amidst this dual torture of extreme cold and extreme heat.

Fine strands of lightning continuously flowed across his body, and the unique lightning markings of the Bronze Thunder Body began to emerge on his skin.

These two distinct forces of extreme heat and extreme cold also began to follow the circulation path of the Great Sun Thunder Body, entering Yu Tianchen's meridians and beginning to temper them in coordination with the technique.

The Bronze Thunder Body state on his body, which originally possessed a bronze luster, was steadily evolving toward a jade-like quality.

Outside.

Not long after Yu Tianchen entered the pool.

Dugu Bo and Yu Yuanzhen returned after finishing their discussion.

Seeing no sign of Yu Tianchen, both of them were stunned.

"Where is Xiaochen?"

Yu Yuanzhen frowned, searching for Yu Tianchen's figure.

Beside him, Dugu Bo spotted the items Yu Tianchen had left by the edge of the pool not far away.

His expression changed instantly, and he quickly stepped forward.

Seeing this, Yu Yuanzhen followed him over.

"This is... the storage Soul Tool I gave Xiaochen?"

Looking at the pouch-like storage Soul Tool and the piece of paper Dugu Bo held in his hand, Yu Yuanzhen looked toward Dugu Bo, whose expression was incredibly unsightly.

"Old Poison Freak, what exactly is going on here?!"

"Nothing has happened to Xiaochen, has it?"

"That reckless brat."

Dugu Bo looked at the contents of the note, his expression shifting several times before he finally sighed and handed it to Yu Yuanzhen.

"See for yourself."

Yu Yuanzhen took the note with some confusion and looked at the writing on it.

After finishing the note, Yu Yuanzhen looked toward the pool with a puzzled expression.

"So, Xiaochen went into this pool?"

"Yes."

Dugu Bo was currently staring intently at the Ice and Fire Yin-Yang Well, nodding with a grave expression.

"Even if I were to enter this pool, I would struggle to last for even a moment."

"That brat Tianchen is truly reckless! Even if he was confident he could enter, he should have told us first."

"That mixed-up brat..."

Seeing Dugu Bo's grave expression, even if Yu Yuanzhen didn't understand the specifics, he understood the terror of this pool of water.

With a gloomy face, he activated his Martial Soul, preparing to enter the pool water.

"What are you doing?"

Dugu Bo frowned and stopped Yu Yuanzhen.

"Obviously, I'm going to pull that brat out."

Yu Yuanzhen said angrily:

"That reckless brat, does he have any idea how dangerous this is?"

Dugu Bo pondered for a moment.

Yu Yuanzhen was a level 95 Super Douluo, and a Super Douluo who possessed a top-tier beast Martial Soul at that.

Given his constitution, there shouldn't be any problem with him going in to check on the situation of the brat Tianchen.

Thinking this, he released his hold on Yu Yuanzhen and said in a deep voice:

"The water in this pool possesses two diametrically opposed, extreme auras of intense heat and bitter cold. You may enter, but you must return immediately if you exceed the time it takes for an incense stick to burn!"

"If you see Yu Tianchen, do not bring him up immediately; first, assess his condition."

"If he appears to be doing well, it means his judgment was correct, and you should not interfere."

"If he is clearly unable to hold on, then you are to bring him out directly!"

"Understood, understood. You Old Poison Freak are truly long-winded."

Yu Yuanzhen understood what Dugu Bo meant. He arrived at the edge of the Ice and Fire Yin-Yang Well, preparing to enter it directly.

But just at that moment.

Above in the sky, dark clouds laden with thunder suddenly converged.

Immediately following, a thick, azure bolt of lightning struck into the pool right before the eyes of Dugu Bo and Yu Yuanzhen.

"Watch out!"

Dugu Bo's expression shifted, and he hurriedly circulated his soul power to block the spring water that had been blasted upward and was splashing in all directions.

Yu Yuanzhen's reaction was not a bit slower; his figure retreated instantly, and he likewise projected his soul power to help Dugu Bo fend off the splashing spring water.

"Old Dragon Yu, go to the other side! Don't let this spring water destroy the surrounding medicinal herbs!"

Looking at the medicinal herbs being ruined by the splashing water, a look of heartache appeared on Dugu Bo's face as he hurriedly shouted at Yu Yuanzhen.

"Then you had better hold your ground!"

Yu Yuanzhen also understood that since they could grow in such a treasure land, these medicinal herbs were certainly of immense value.

Without hesitation, he quickly moved to the other side, joining Dugu Bo in using their soul power to seal off the small pool.

Boom! Rumble!!

Continuous bolts of lightning kept slamming into the spring water.

Dugu Bo, while maintaining the soul power used to seal the pool, looked with some astonishment toward the spot where the lightning was striking.

Ever since he had claimed this treasure land for himself, there had never been an anomaly like this.

Aside from Yu Tianchen, who had jumped into the pool, there could be no one else capable of causing such a massive commotion.

What on earth did that kid do to stir up such a racket?!

After the lightning persisted for a moment, the dark clouds in the sky slowly dissipated.

Yet, even though the thunderclouds had vanished, the water in the pool remained boiling.

The once clearly demarcated milky white and crimson colors were now in complete disarray, and from time to time, faint arcs of electricity emerged from the spring water.

A moment later, the pool water began to gradually calm down.

The milky white and crimson spring water also began to return to its clearly demarcated state, and the arcs of electricity vanished as the spring water recovered its original appearance.

Seeing that the lake water was no longer boiling, Dugu Bo and Yu Yuanzhen both withdrew their soul power.

Whether it was Yu Yuanzhen or Dugu Bo, both could now basically confirm that this incident was the handiwork of Yu Tianchen, who was inside the lake.

Although both were somewhat angry about what that kid was messing around with under the water, this commotion actually allowed the two, who had been somewhat worried, to set their minds at ease.

With a commotion, they could at least confirm that the kid was indeed fine.

"Hmph, when that brat comes up, I must beat his backside until it's swollen."

Yu Yuanzhen glared huffily at the now-calm surface of the water.

"I agree. This kid won't be escaping this beating."

Dugu Bo looked at the medicinal herbs growing by the lakeside with a pained expression, fiercely agreeing with Yu Yuanzhen's proposal.
