Forging a Golden Body in the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well

Qian Mochen's gaze swept over the immortal herbs surrounding the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well.

The Aromatic Silk Beauty, whose fragrance could neutralize all toxins; the Octagonal Mysterious Ice Grass and Infernal Delicate Apricot, one frigid and one scorching; the Aromatic Silk Beauty, capable of breaking through the limits of support-type Martial Souls...

Every immortal herb here would drive Soul Masters across the entire continent mad if it were released into the outside world.

And now, this treasure land belonged to his Spirit Hall!

Qian Mochen turned and met Dugu Bo's somewhat uneasy gaze. He said solemnly, "Senior Dugu, this valley of yours is incredibly valuable. Using it in exchange for a way to resolve the Dugu Clan's Martial Soul flaw is like trading gold for a bowl of rice."

Since Dugu Bo had already made his decision, he naturally did not hesitate any further. He smiled openly and said, "Your Highness, my greatest wish now is to save the Dugu Clan from its fate of dying young. If I can exchange these worldly possessions for that, then I am the one who has profited greatly."

"To be honest, Your Highness, this old poisoner once considered making use of these rare herbs. But after trying only once, I nearly lost half my life. I know how precious these exotic herbs are, but unfortunately, I know nothing about them."

"Very well. Since Elder Dugu has offered this place to Spirit Hall, I shall make the decision: the Dugu Clan will forever receive thirty percent of this place's profits."

"The method to resolve the Dugu Clan's Martial Soul flaw lies in this immortal herb."

Following Qian Mochen's finger, Dugu Bo saw a melon covered in fine golden dragon-scale patterns, its entire body a lustrous reddish gold.

"Your Highness, as long as I eat it, the Dugu Clan's Martial Soul flaw will completely disappear?"

Dugu Bo's voice sounded as though it came from a dream, carrying a faint haze.

"Naturally!"

Qian Mochen nodded with certainty. "This immortal herb is called the Earth Dragon Golden Melon. After consuming it, it can promote the evolution of dragon-type Martial Souls. In that case, the Dugu Clan's Martial Soul will no longer be the Jade Phosphorus Snake Emperor, and its flaw will naturally cease to exist."

Qian Mochen inspected the Earth Dragon Golden Melon. Seeing that it was fully mature, he plucked it directly.

Dugu Bo stared at the Earth Dragon Golden Melon with reddened eyes, his hands trembling nervously.

Wonderful, Xin'er can be saved.

From now on, my Dugu Clan will never have to endure such a tragedy again!

"Once the Earth Dragon Golden Melon matures, if swallowed directly, it will only be enough for one person."

"That is enough, Your Highness, more than enough. These old bones of mine have long grown accustomed to it."

"Senior Dugu, I have not finished speaking."

Qian Mochen chuckled. "If the Earth Dragon Golden Melon is used as the main ingredient to refine pills, its medicinal effects can be maximized."

"Senior Dugu, I need these medicinal ingredients. Please see whether your herb garden has them."

Qian Mochen listed more than a dozen medicinal herbs. Dugu Bo nodded repeatedly. "I have all of those herbs here, Your Highness. I will fetch them at once!"

Before Qian Mochen could reply, Dugu Bo's figure had already flown into the dense mist.

With a flick of his hand, Qian Mochen produced a medicinal cauldron and directly used his remaining thirty thousand Emotion Points to exchange for alchemy knowledge.

His mind was instantly filled with information on processing medicinal herbs, refining techniques, and more. Moreover, this knowledge was not forcibly memorized; it felt as though it had always been Qian Mochen's own experience, ready to be used at will.

Products of the system were indeed top-quality!

Dugu Bo quickly delivered the supplementary herbs. Qian Mochen immediately began refining the medicine. Twelve hours later, the pill furnace opened, and five glittering golden pills flew out.

Qian Mochen put away the pills and handed every one of them to Dugu Bo.

"Senior Dugu, the effect of each of these pills is basically the same as that of the Earth Dragon Golden Melon. You may take one and try it."

"Thank you, Your Highness!"

Dugu Bo did not hesitate in the slightest and swallowed a pill at once. Moments later, his long green hair began to fade, revealing its original black color.

The Jade Phosphorus Snake Emperor Martial Soul silently appeared behind Dugu Bo. Two bumps slowly emerged atop its originally oval snake head, while four claws appeared beneath its serpentine body at some unknown point.

The Jade Phosphorus Snake Emperor soared into the air and let out a jubilant roar. The two bumps atop its head split open, revealing a pair of brand-new dragon horns.

The Jade Phosphorus Snake Emperor was now an entire size larger than before.

Qian Mochen observed the four dragon claws beneath its belly and the dragon horns atop its head. Dugu Bo's Martial Soul was now more aptly called the Jade Phosphorus Dragon Emperor.

"Thank you, Your Highness! Dugu is willing to become a vassal clan of the Qian Family. Please grant my request, Your Highness!"

When Dugu Bo opened his eyes and sensed his current Martial Soul, his eyes instantly turned red.

It worked. It truly worked!

Not only had his Martial Soul successfully evolved and freed him from the hidden danger of snake venom forever, but his Soul Power had also risen by one level. He, Dugu Bo, had finally crossed the threshold of a Titled Douluo!

After his excitement passed, Dugu Bo immediately knelt. The kindness His Highness had shown the Dugu Clan could only be repaid over countless lifetimes.

Qian Mochen naturally would not turn away a Poison Douluo with such astonishing destructive power. He stepped forward and helped Dugu Bo up. "Senior Dugu, when we return this time, my Spirit Hall will implement a merit point system. When the time comes, you may directly exchange points for whatever you need."

Dugu Bo nodded in agreement. "Your Highness, I am now level ninety and still lack one Soul Ring. Please allow me to hunt a Soul Beast."

"You may."

Dugu Bo tactfully departed. Qian Mochen plucked a huge chrysanthemum the size of a basin and handed it to Gui Mei.

"Elder Gui Mei, immediately deliver this immortal herb to Elder Yue Guan and instruct him to consume it at once!"

"Yes!"

Gui Mei's figure silently emerged. He accepted the chrysanthemum, transformed into a shadow, and departed.

Once the outsiders had left, Bibi Dong could no longer restrain her curiosity and ran over to Qian Mochen.

"Hey, you casually plucked a flower just now and said it was an immortal herb rarely seen in a thousand years. Could it be that everything around these springs is an immortal herb?"

"Naturally!"

Qian Mochen told Bibi Dong everything about the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well and each of the immortal herbs around it, including their names and effects. He then had her pluck them one by one and place them into jade boxes.

When she heard the story of the Lovesick Heartbreak Red, Bibi Dong's eyes flickered.

"You have arranged all the work for me to do, so what are you going to do?"

"I plan to use this treasure land to forge a golden body."

"Afterward, I must focus completely on resisting the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well and the medicinal effects of the immortal herbs. During that time, my safety will depend on you."

"Hmph, is that how you ask someone for help?" Bibi Dong glanced sideways at Qian Mochen, the corners of her lips quietly curving upward.

"You may take any one immortal herb here that catches your eye. How about that?"

"That is more like it." Bibi Dong's gaze roamed over the circle of immortal herbs, satisfaction showing on her face.

Qian Mochen removed his outer robe, leaving only a pair of shorts on his body. He walked to the edge of the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well, his gaze locking onto the two immortal herbs growing beside the springs.

The Octagonal Mysterious Ice Grass and the Infernal Delicate Apricot.

The Seraphim Martial Soul emerged behind him. Qian Mochen's figure vanished in an instant, and in the next moment, the Octagonal Mysterious Ice Grass and Infernal Delicate Apricot appeared in his hands. Extreme heat and icy poison invaded his body through his arms.

Not daring to delay in the slightest, Qian Mochen swallowed both immortal herbs in one gulp, and his body plunged into the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well.
