Here Is the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well

Having decided to enter the Psychedelic Poison Array, Lin Xiao waved his hand, and two barriers condensed from Soul Power appeared, protecting the two of them from every angle without a single blind spot and shielding them from the poison array's harm.

"Xiao Xue, let's go in. With the barriers formed from my Soul Power, this Psychedelic Poison Array won't be able to harm us in any way," Lin Xiao said calmly, taking Qian Renxue's hand as they walked into the array.

"Brother Lin Xiao, judging by this Psychedelic Poison Array, it is probably meant to stop the Soul Beasts outside from entering, while also preventing people from going in. Do you think the special place you mentioned might be inside?" Qian Renxue looked around and analyzed the situation.

After observing the poison array, she found that it was not as toxic as she had imagined. It only caused hallucinations. Soul Beasts that entered the array would emerge a short while later, dazed and disoriented, but unharmed by poison.

Lin Xiao nodded slowly without denying it. Smiling, he said, "That is indeed the purpose of this poison array. Whether the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well has already been claimed by someone else remains unknown."

"The Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well? Brother Lin Xiao, is the place that contains Immortal Grade Spirit Herbs and can improve Martial Soul quality, cultivation talent, and Soul Power Level without side effects called the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well?" Qian Renxue asked.

"Of course. The Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well is said to be a spring formed from the remains of the Ice and Fire Dragon King after their deaths in ancient times. The area around the spring can accelerate the growth of spirit herbs, and because of the Yin Yang Well, these herbs cannot develop intelligence. It is incredibly valuable to Soul Masters!" Lin Xiao explained.

"Such a thing exists? What kind of beings were the Ice and Fire Dragon Kings, to become such a miraculous place even after death?!" Qian Renxue pondered.

"The Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well does exist, but whether it was truly formed after the deaths of the Ice and Fire Dragon Kings is unknown." Lin Xiao smiled and did not explain much about the Ice and Fire Dragon Kings. Even he was not particularly familiar with them.

"So that's how it is. I hope this place is not the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well you mentioned, Brother Lin Xiao. If someone got here first, wouldn't that mean all the Immortal Grade Spirit Herbs in the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well have already been harvested?" Qian Renxue said softly.

The Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well was an extraordinary place. After Lin Xiao's explanation, she now understood its importance very clearly. If someone else had arrived first, they would not merely return empty-handed—the most important thing was that they would lose the Immortal Grade Spirit Herbs within the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well!

Lin Xiao shook his head slightly and said with a smile, "The Immortal Grade Spirit Herbs in the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well are extremely special. Without special methods of harvesting them, they will lose their original effects. Some are even Immortal Grade Spirit Herbs containing deadly poison. Even if someone arrived before us, there is no need to worry. That person would not know the effects of every herb here, nor how to harvest them."

Hearing this, Qian Renxue nodded slightly. Others might not know, but why did her Brother Lin Xiao seem to understand everything so clearly? She realized that after so many years apart, her Brother Lin Xiao seemed to be covered in secrets.

Brother Lin Xiao was still her Brother Lin Xiao, but he had become increasingly mysterious and difficult to fathom, unlike when they were young.

The poison array covered an absurdly vast area, yet they still passed safely through the Psychedelic Poison Array and arrived on the other side.

"Just as expected, Brother Lin Xiao, we guessed correctly. This Psychedelic Poison Array was meant to keep out Soul Beasts and people like us. There are actually no Soul Beasts inside the array," Qian Renxue said with a cheerful smile.

"That is indeed the case," Lin Xiao replied with a smile. He said nothing more. As long as Qian Renxue was happy, that was enough.

As the two continued exploring deeper inside, they eventually discovered a small valley ahead. There was only one entrance before them, and without hesitation, they chose to enter it.

When they emerged from the valley, Qian Renxue froze at the sight before her. Ahead lay a spring where blue and red intertwined, while countless spirit herbs around it radiated their own unique light.

"Ice and fire coexist. Brother Lin Xiao, do you think this is the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well you spoke of?" Qian Renxue asked as she looked at Lin Xiao beside her.

Lin Xiao stared at the spring where ice and fire merged, then nodded slightly. "That's right. This is the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well I mentioned, and the surrounding area contains countless spirit herbs. There are even Immortal Grade Spirit Herbs with extraordinary effects among them!"

Lin Xiao surveyed the spirit herbs covering the ground. He discovered that he knew every one of their effects, and even understood which Martial Souls were suited to absorb them and what effects different Martial Souls would gain after absorbing them.

As expected, the Hundred Solutions of Immortal Herbs I obtained from the system did not disappoint me. Every spirit herb before me is like a naked maiden, completely exposed before my eyes! Lin Xiao thought to himself.

"Brother Lin Xiao, you do not seem surprised at all?" Qian Renxue frowned slightly, puzzled.

"Why should I be surprised?" Lin Xiao said with a chuckle.

"There is a poison array set up here, which means someone had already discovered this Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well long ago. Why are you—" Qian Renxue suddenly realized something and questioned him indignantly, "Brother Lin Xiao, did you know all along? Is that why you were not surprised in the slightest?"

She suspected that Lin Xiao had known long ago that someone had already arrived here first, but that person did not understand the specific uses of these spirit herbs. That was why he had not been anxious, nor had he seemed surprised upon arriving here.

Lin Xiao slowly raised his broad hand and gently rubbed Qian Renxue's head. Chuckling, he said, "Xiao Xue, you're already very close to the answer~"

Naturally, he knew very well that the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well had actually been discovered by Dugu Bo long ago. However, Dugu Bo did not recognize these spirit herbs or Immortal Grade Spirit Herbs. He merely used the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well to suppress the violent poison within his body.

Qian Renxue said indignantly, "I knew it, I knew it, I knew it! Brother Lin Xiao, you're awful. You clearly know everything, yet you refuse to tell me. You already knew that someone had discovered the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well before us, didn't you?"

Lin Xiao smiled and nodded slightly.

"Xiao Xue, when I saw the Psychedelic Poison Array, I had already confirmed that someone had likely discovered the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well. But it would not be accurate to say they got here first."

"Look at the untouched spirit herbs and Immortal Grade Spirit Herbs around us. That means the Soul Master who came here before us does not actually know the effects of these spirit herbs," Lin Xiao said calmly.
