Twin Stalk Dragon-Patterned Ginseng, the Way of Taiji, the Path to Heaven!

The Ice and Fire Yin-Yang Well did not have Crystal Blood Dragon Ginseng, but he remembered that the original story mentioned the Speed Clan having some. When the time came, he would bring Grandpa Qian Daoliu and Grandpa Golden Crocodile along for a visit.

He could exchange an Immortal Herb suited to the Speed Clan for it. Surely they would agree.

Though the Speed Clan would be unable to resist even if he simply took it by force, there was no need for that. For one, Spirit Hall and Qian Daoliu, who possessed the Six-Winged Angel Martial Soul, had always stood on the side of order.

For another, he had grown up in modern society with sound values. After crossing into this other world, he had lived from childhood until now in the core territory of Spirit Hall, a righteous faction. The people he encountered and observed had all been fairly normal, so he still could not calmly seize other people's possessions outright.

Third, the Crystal Blood Dragon Ginseng was meant for Dong'er. If she casually asked where it had come from, he could lie and say it had always been in the Ice and Fire Yin-Yang Well, or that he had taken it by force.

Dong'er would likely stand by him without reservation, but it would still leave a blemish on the matter. There was no need. He was merely trading an Immortal Herb, not giving one away for nothing.

Xiao Yao looked over the Immortal Herbs in the Ice and Fire Yin-Yang Well. The Singular Velvet Sky Chrysanthemum would naturally go to Yue Guan. It was the most perfect and compatible match, an absolute hundred-percent fusion and refinement!

As for Ghost Douluo, this Nine Nether Soul-Suppressing Begonia would suit him perfectly.

Xiao Yao looked at a begonia flower carved from black crystal. A faint purple glow shimmered along the edges of its petals, while its stamen resembled a mass of ink too dark to dissolve.

If he gave the Singular Velvet Sky Chrysanthemum to Yue Guan and the Nine Nether Soul-Suppressing Begonia, an Immortal Herb exceptionally suited to Ghost Douluo, to Ghost Douluo, the two of them would instantly become his most loyal followers.

Moreover, both had considerable potential to begin with. Their Martial Soul Fusion Skill, the Two-Pole Static Domain,

was a divine skill capable of freezing even Daming, the Sky Azure Bull Python, and Erming, the Titan Giant Ape—top-tier hundred-thousand-year Super Soul Beasts—in place.

Its track record was beyond question.

If he further strengthened Chrysanthemum Douluo and Ghost Douluo with Immortal Herbs, raising their Martial Soul strength and potential another level, the Two-Pole Static Domain they used would definitely become even stronger!

The two would become trump cards in his hand. Nor did he need to worry that they would betray him after consuming the Immortal Herbs; his strength and potential were obvious to all.

With Qian Daoliu and Spirit Hall, the continent's greatest power, backing him, and with him having given Chrysanthemum Douluo the Immortal Herb he had long dreamed of,

the two were quite happy staying in Spirit Hall. Only someone with a problem in their head would betray it.

Xiao Yao then thought of Qian Jun Douluo and Falling Devil Douluo. They were twins, and their Martial Souls were both Coiling Dragon Staffs. When Bibi Dong acquired her first soul ring, Qian Jun Douluo had helped her. He had also been one of the earliest Title Douluo to show Xiao Yao goodwill.

Thus, Qian Jun Douluo and Falling Devil Douluo were also worth investing in. In a few years, they would naturally enter the Worship Hall, and their combat strength was formidable to begin with.

Their performances in the original story had also been impressive. When the two fought together at Rank 96, their strength rivaled that of Rank 98 or even Rank 99 Douluo. One had to know that after Rank 95, every single rank brought an enormous gap!

Yet they could still battle across two or three ranks. That was truly remarkable.

Xiao Yao looked at the unusually shaped Immortal Herb beside the icy and fiery pools.

It was not a single plant, but one stalk bearing twin ginseng roots, growing side by side.

The two ginseng roots were as thick as a child's arm, their bodies entwined in deep black and red-gold hues. Strangely, their surfaces were not smooth, but naturally grew with layer upon layer of dragon-scale patterns, and the markings on the two roots mirrored each other.

Twin Stalk Dragon-Patterned Ginseng.

Only two people whose hearts were truly in sync could pluck this Immortal Herb at the same time, causing the twin roots to separate. If there was even a trace of hesitation, both roots would instantly petrify and shatter.

Being of one mind was only enough to pluck the Immortal Herb. To consume and refine it, their physiques and origins also needed to be similar and in resonance in order to sustain the refinement.

Otherwise, if two people with dissimilar physiques and origins consumed and refined it, the moment one refined it even slightly faster, the other's refinement would completely collapse. They had to refine it in perfect sync.

This Immortal Herb was extraordinarily difficult to pluck or refine, but for Qian Jun and Jiang Mo, it was a match made in heaven—a perfect fit without the slightest difficulty.

The attributes strengthened by this Immortal Herb were also exceptionally suited to them. It could greatly reinforce the Martial Soul Origins linking the two.

And because it was twin-stalked and grew together, the Martial Soul Origin attributes strengthened in both would be similar. Thus, after consuming this Immortal Herb, the two would almost certainly develop a Martial Soul Fusion Skill.

Qian Jun Douluo and Falling Devil Douluo were twins, their Martial Souls were both Coiling Dragon Staffs, and they were close to entering the ranks of Super Douluo. With this incomparably compatible Immortal Herb, their Martial Souls would be strengthened, and they would have an extremely high chance of developing a Martial Soul Fusion Skill.

A Martial Soul Fusion Skill wielded by two Super Douluo who both possessed Coiling Dragon Staffs—how powerful would it be? The image was too beautiful. Just thinking about it made Xiao Yao feel thoroughly delighted.

As he thought this, Xiao Yao suddenly realized that ever since finding the Ice and Fire Yin-Yang Well, Spirit Hall's strength had increased drastically.

Golden Crocodile Douluo had risen to Rank 99, becoming a Peerless Douluo, and his Golden Crocodile King Martial Soul had evolved into a Red Gold Dragon Crocodile.

Qingluan Douluo had risen to Rank 98, and his Azure Luan Martial Soul had evolved into a Qingluan Divine Bird.

His own grandfather had risen to Rank 97, and his Blazing Lion Martial Soul had evolved into a Blazing Golden Lion. The strength and potential of all three of their Martial Souls had been greatly enhanced.

Not to mention how powerful the Martial Soul Fusion Skill of Chrysanthemum Douluo and Ghost Douluo, two people who already possessed one, would become after they obtained Immortal Herbs exceptionally suited to them.

And there were also Qian Jun Douluo and Falling Devil Douluo, who had an extremely high chance of developing a Martial Soul Fusion Skill.

As for the remaining Immortal Herbs, he would decide later. He could not act like some great philanthropist and directly give Immortal Herbs to Spirit Hall members he did not even know.

The most urgent matter now was still to have the space within his third soul skill, Rivers and Mountains as a Painting—Walking Within the Painting—devour the Ice and Fire Yin-Yang Well!

He did not dare imagine how strong he would become if he truly could devour the Ice and Fire Yin-Yang Well. This place contained the complete remains of the Water Dragon King and Fire Dragon King—remains at the level of God Kings!

Grandpa Qian Daoliu and the others had no idea of the Ice and Fire Yin-Yang Well's true nature. They merely thought it was a wondrous sight of heaven and earth, a treasure basin possessing miraculous power. But no matter how extraordinary it was, they probably believed it could not surpass god-level strength.

In truth, however, it had long surpassed god-level strength. Its energy source had reached the level of God Kings, and it was the power of two God King remains.

And if it had merely been the remains of two God Kings, Xiao Yao would certainly have been excited, but he would never have desired it so intensely.

What truly tempted him was the Taiji-like pattern formed by the remains of the Water Dragon King and Fire Dragon King.

The status of Taiji was extraordinarily lofty. Whether in the records concerning Taiji from his previous life or the historical records of Spirit Hall in this life, he had discovered that the descriptions from the two worlds were broadly similar.

Taiji was the state before heaven and earth were opened, before chaos was divided into yin and yang.

The Book of Changes had Taiji, which gave birth to the Two Poles; the Two Poles gave birth to the Four Images, and the Four Images gave birth to the Eight Trigrams.

It explained the process by which the universe went from Wuji to Taiji, until all things came into being.

Now, as he looked at the Taiji pattern formed by the Ice and Fire Yin-Yang Well and the Qi of Creation it produced to nourish the various Immortal Herbs,

if he devoured the Ice and Fire Yin-Yang Well,

and gained the power of Taiji, gaining the ability to produce Qi of Creation and nourish his already powerful body, his strength would rise at an even more astonishing pace!

And his future path to godhood would become far smoother. The Way of Taiji was a law that would not hold him back even at the God King level.

Indeed, among all laws, Taiji ranked among the very highest. It could be called a path to heaven!
