Earth Dragon Golden Melon: Crunchy in One Bite, Even Crunchier in the Second!

After the explanation, everyone descended from above to the edge of the lake.

Shen Yifeng swept his gaze around. All kinds of Immortal Herbs grew around the lake.

Some were entirely golden, radiating dazzling light.

Every single one emanated pure Soul Power fluctuations. One look was enough to tell they were no ordinary plants.

Just as Dugu Bo wanted to ask for more details,

Shen Yifeng seemed to know what he wanted to ask and spoke first.

"This is the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well, a unique treasure land between heaven and earth."

"The spring water here contains ultimate ice and fire energy. The Immortal Herbs it nurtures are thousands, even tens of thousands of times more potent than ordinary medicinal herbs."

The Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well!

So that was what it was called!

Dugu Bo suddenly understood. He had cultivated here for so long, yet only now did he learn its name. He had truly broadened his horizons.

"Senior Dugu, one reason you were able to suppress your toxins and break through to become a Title Douluo was because of this place."

Shen Yifeng looked at Dugu Bo.

"Student Yifeng is right. That is indeed the case. If I had not stumbled upon this place by chance, I would not have achieved what I have today."

Dugu Bo admitted it openly.

This place was indeed remarkable. It could suppress his toxins and help him break through his bottleneck. It was simply perfect.

"Senior Dugu, I'll treat you now. Once the treatment is finished, I want to eat some of these herbs."

"No problem. Eat whatever you like."

Dugu Bo waved his hand grandly, speaking with heroic confidence.

He did not know these herbs anyway. Let him eat them. As long as it made his little benefactor happy, that was enough.

"Good."

Shen Yifeng smiled and nodded, immediately beginning to search through the area.

Bi Ji was highly knowledgeable about plants, yet she did not recognize a single herb here. Still, her eyes glowed green.

The mistress was amazing.

Even she did not recognize them, yet the mistress knew so much. She really wanted the mistress to teach her, but the Lord would definitely not agree.

As he searched for herbs, Gu Yuena followed closely behind while eating a rice ball.

"I'm just looking for herbs. Why are you following me? Stay where you are and eat your rice ball."

Shen Yifeng rolled his eyes at Gu Yuena.

"That won't do. What if we run into danger? I can help Yifeng too."

Wuwu, my wife scolded me again.

Fortunately, my wife has a sharp tongue but a soft heart. She'll be fine after she's done scolding me.

After searching slowly, he soon found a golden-glowing plant in a corner by a rock.

The soil mounds around it were all golden. Shen Yifeng strode forward and began brushing aside the mounds on either side with his hands.

Before long,

A complete sweet-potato-shaped plant was exposed. Brightly colored and plump in form, it was an Earth Dragon Golden Melon.

This Earth Dragon Golden Melon was connected to another one. He only needed to dig out the remaining piece.

"Yifeng, can this sweet potato detoxify poison?"

Gu Yuena's eyes widened, her face filled with disbelief.

"Of course."

Shen Yifeng took the two plump, golden Earth Dragon Golden Melons and walked over to Dugu Bo and Dugu Yan.

Zi Ji and Bi Ji immediately gathered around, curiously examining the sweet-potato-like plants.

A sweet potato that could detoxify poison was something they had never heard of.

"Student Yifeng, can this really detoxify poison?"

Dugu Bo looked at the Earth Dragon Golden Melon, somewhat unable to believe it.

"This is an Earth Dragon Golden Melon, an earth-element Immortal Herb. It contains a trace of pure dragon energy."

Shen Yifeng explained.

"It can transform the Jade Phosphorous Serpent poison in your body, while preserving the toxin's power to a great extent. Most importantly, it has a chance of causing your Jade Phosphorous Serpent Emperor Martial Soul to evolve."

"Evolve?!"

Dugu Bo's eyes flew wide open. Martial Soul Evolution!

His Martial Soul had already evolved once. If it evolved again, it would be a complete qualitative leap.

His greatest regret in life was that his Martial Soul had flaws.

If it could evolve, forget detoxification—even if it cost him far more, he would be willing.

"Student Yifeng, I believe you!"

Without hesitation, Dugu Bo picked up an Earth Dragon Golden Melon, opened his mouth, and took a bite.

"Hm? It's quite crisp and sweet."

His eyes lit up, and his second bite crunched even louder.

After only a few bites, he had devoured the entire Earth Dragon Golden Melon.

Zi Ji and Gu Yuena watched Dugu Bo eat with such enjoyment.

They wanted a taste too. Mainly because he made it look so delicious.

After finishing it, Dugu Bo immediately sat cross-legged and began circulating his Soul Power to absorb it.

Jade-green light erupted from his body, and the Jade Phosphorous Serpent Emperor Martial Soul silently appeared.

After the absorption continued for two hours.

In an instant,

The enormous serpent body coiled on the ground, its originally dark-green scales beginning to gleam with a faint earthy-yellow luster.

Two slender dragon whiskers slowly grew from its head. Its rough snake scales gradually became hard and smooth, transforming into dragon scales with a metallic texture.

The surrounding earth elements frantically gathered toward Dugu Bo, forming an enormous yellow vortex.

His aura grew stronger and stronger, while the pallor of his face gradually returned to a healthy flush.

Bi Ji and Zi Ji exchanged glances, both seeing shock in the other's eyes.

Gu Yuena folded her arms, looking utterly smug.

Sure enough, there was nothing my wife couldn't do.

"It evolved! Student Yifeng, Grandpa's Martial Soul really evolved."

"From now on, at the academy, I'll follow Student Yifeng's lead in everything. If you tell me to go east, I'll never go west."

Dugu Yan immediately declared her attitude, her stance, and the powerful resolve in her heart.

The path has opened up wide.

Gu Yuena smiled, her mind turning quickly. Following her wife meant eating nine meals a day, all of them filling.

Mm... I kind of miss the food at First Grade Pavilion. When we go back, I'll have a proper feast.

"Student Yan Yan, you can live normally. I won't make things difficult for you."

"That's different. Once I get back, I'll support you as the boss."

Dugu Yan grinned.

The boss?

At that moment, the Martial Soul changed again. Its snake head successfully transformed into a dragon head.

Dugu Bo's aura also rose, breaking through from a Rank 91 Title Douluo to a Rank 93 Title Douluo.

His original toxins had also been preserved almost perfectly.

"I broke through! I broke through!"

He had finally broken through, rising two ranks at once and reaching Rank 93 Title Douluo.

He had never even dared to imagine this before.

This feeling was too wonderful. When he looked back, the original Jade Phosphorous Serpent Emperor had long since vanished, replaced by the Jade Phosphorous Poison Emperor.

No, Poison Emperor did not sound right. It should be called the Jade Phosphorous Poison Dragon.

His Martial Soul was a dragon, and it had poison.

"Congratulations, Senior Dugu, on completing your evolution."

"Thank you for this, Student Yifeng. I even broke through to Rank 93 Title Douluo in the process."

Dugu Bo dearly wanted to burst into wild laughter, but that would be somewhat impolite, so he could only hold it in.

He was simply too happy.

Martial Soul Evolution, a Soul Power breakthrough, and his toxins cured.

Three blessings had arrived at once!

"No need for thanks. Let your granddaughter eat the rest. Next, I need to look for other herbs as well."

After tossing the last Earth Dragon Golden Melon in his hand to Dugu Yan, he began locating the Octagonal Mysterious Ice Grass and the Infernal Delicate Apricot.

"Is it really that sweet?"

Dugu Yan parted her red lips and took a bite. Its crisp, sweet, juicy taste spread through her mouth.

One bite after another,

It burst with juice!
