Cultivating at the Ice and Fire Yin-Yang Well (7th Update)

Ice and Fire Yin-Yang Well.

Quite beautiful.

Regarding the scenery here, Su Chen could only say, "Holy crap, it's massive."

One half was entirely volcanic crystals, the other half entirely glacial crystals. With all sorts of exotic flowers and rare grasses shimmering with light, calling it a dreamlike fairyland was no exaggeration.

Su Chen looked out over the Ice and Fire Yin-Yang Well, the mountainside covered in nothing but poisonous weeds and immortal herbs. He was immensely satisfied; for his current level of strength, many of them were still quite useful.

Seeing Su Chen look somewhat tempted, Dugu Bo hurriedly reminded him:

"You brat, take it easy. Most of these are poisonous weeds. Don't go touching things you don't recognize; if you eat something that makes you sick, don't blame me for not warning you."

Su Chen smiled and looked at Dugu Bo. "I know this place better than you do. I even know the origin of the Ice and Fire Yin-Yang Well like the back of my hand."

"There might be poisonous weeds here I don't recognize, but I know every single one of these immortal herbs. Shall we start by curing the poison, or should I start mowing the grass?"

Dugu Bo replied indifferently, "Suit yourself. You already know where this place is, and given your strength, I'm not certain I could do anything about you anyway. The initiative is no longer in my hands."

Su Chen nodded slightly and began to speak:

"Yanzi's poison is actually quite simple, but for the poison inside your own body, I have two solutions."

"The first is a slow detoxification. Eventually, you find a spirit bone and force all the toxins into it. While slow, this won't have much impact on your strength."

"The second is for me to neutralize the toxins in your body directly. This is faster and better, but since you are a poison user, weakening your toxins will have a certain impact on your strength."

"This..."

Dugu Bo fell silent upon hearing this.

His strength wasn't exactly overwhelming to begin with; if his poison were weakened, he would truly be at the bottom of the pack.

Wouldn't his old rival, Chrysanthemum, torment him to death?

Dugu Yan looked at Su Chen and asked:

"Then what do you think is the best course of action for Grandfather?"

Dugu Bo also looked at Su Chen.

Su Chen thought for a moment and replied:

"I believe the second option is best. Senior Dugu, you aren't that old yet. Well... although you are over eighty, you are a Titled Douluo and can live for at least several hundred years."

"You are still in your prime, and there is a bigger stage ahead of you. Once I clear the toxins from your body and help you regulate your meridians, I'll find you an immortal herb later. Reaching level ninety-five or ninety-six in the future will certainly be no problem."

"Truly?"

Dugu Bo was instantly stirred with excitement.

Su Chen nodded slightly and said, "Alright, since you've made your decision, let's begin. Sit down first."

Dugu Bo sat cross-legged on the ground and asked:

"What do I need to do?"

Su Chen sat down behind Dugu Bo and instructed, "Just relax. I will circulate my energy through your body to neutralize the poison."

With that, Su Chen pressed his palms against Dugu Bo's back. His terrifying century-old internal energy transformed into the extremely rigid and masculine Nine Yang Divine Skill, surging through Dugu Bo's entire body.

Feeling the power within him, Dugu Bo couldn't help but be shocked. This little brat actually possessed such a masculine force?

Dugu Yan and Ye Lingling waited quietly to the side.

"Hey?"

"Lingling, look, my grandfather is steaming."

Just as Ye Lingling was about to speak, Su Chen used telepathic transmission, his voice landing directly in their minds:

"Stay further away. There is poison in the white smoke."

Hearing this, the two of them hurriedly retreated, their hearts filled with shock. What was going on with Su Chen?

The Diary Copy hadn't moved!

He hadn't opened his mouth either, so why was his voice echoing in their minds?

Three hours later.

The poison in Dugu Bo's body had been resolved.

Su Chen withdrew his hands and sat cross-legged to regulate his breathing.

Titled Douluos were truly powerful. If not for the "blue buff" of the Nine Yang Divine Skill, this round of detoxification would have surely drained him dry.

Dugu Bo stood up, feeling an unprecedented sense of lightness. Just as he was about to do something, he saw Su Chen still sitting there, so he held back and stood quietly to the side to wait.

Not long after.

Su Chen exhaled slowly and muttered to himself, "Fantasy is fantasy after all. Even the floor here is no joke."

Seeing Su Chen stop, Dugu Bo hurriedly asked:

"How is it, little one?"

"It's not a big problem."

Su Chen replied, then stood up and said, "The poison in your body has been neutralized. Now, I'm going to go harvest the herbs."

Dugu Bo nodded, looking at Su Chen with a complex gaze. He couldn't help but feel a sense of awe; this kid was truly a monster!

To maintain such a powerful output of energy for three full hours—it was as if he were an inexhaustible machine. It was terrifying!

Next.

Fragrant Silk Luo.

Strange Velvet Sky Chrysanthemum.

Eight-Petal Immortal Orchid.

Su Chen didn't stand on ceremony with Dugu Bo. Having gone to such great lengths to neutralize the poison, he harvested every single herb in the Ice and Fire Yin-Yang Well, whether immortal or poisonous, and tucked them all into his spatial ring.

Who knew if that Little Bastard would come sniffing around in the future?

In any case, for the next few decades, he wouldn't even be able to get his hands on a single blade of grass.

Dugu Bo's expression stiffened, and he said with a complicated look:

"You really do keep your word!"

"You said you'd harvest everything, and you really didn't leave me a single blade of grass. You didn't even spare the common poisonous weeds."

After Su Chen had collected everything except for the Octagonal Mysterious Ice Grass and the Blazing Apricot Delicate, he smiled faintly:

"I'm afraid that if I don't take them, you'll get your home raided sooner or later. Better they benefit me than someone else!"

"At the very least, I can leave some for you and Dugu Yan to use yourselves."

With that said, Su Chen took the Nine-Grade Purple Ganoderma from his spatial ring and explained:

"This is the Nine-Grade Purple Ganoderma. It has the effect of strengthening the foundation, nourishing the vital energy, and purging impurities from the body."

"That loser on the continent who wrote the 'Top Ten Martial Soul Theories'—he couldn't break through level thirty in his entire life, but if he were to consume this Nine-Grade Purple Ganoderma, he could break that limitation."

Dugu Bo's expression turned strange. "It's that miraculous? I never discovered it before..."

Su Chen shook his head helplessly.

What could you possibly have discovered?

If you had been able to find even one of these, wouldn't you have given it to your granddaughter long ago?

Thinking of this, Su Chen looked at Dugu Yan and said, "Yanzi, after I finish detoxifying you tomorrow, I'll help you pick out an immortal herb."

"Mn!" Dugu Yan nodded, having no objections.

Su Chen soared into the air, using his internal energy to draw the Octagonal Mysterious Ice Grass and the Blazing Apricot Delicate into his hands. After consuming them both, he stripped off his clothes.

Ye Lingling: ???

Dugu Yan: ???

The next moment, Su Chen dove headfirst into the Ice and Fire Well.

"Damn it."

Dugu Bo was instantly alarmed. "How could you be so reckless? The danger inside, you..."

Clearly, Su Chen didn't encounter any problems; he looked as if he were simply soaking in a hot spring.

Dugu Bo realized he had been overthinking it. After all, this kid knew far more than he did and wouldn't do anything truly reckless.

"Refreshing!"

Su Chen took a deep dive and surfaced, saying, "One side cold, one side hot—no wonder the big shots love playing with the 'Ice and Fire Dual Heaven.' It really is an extraordinary pleasure!"

Dugu Bo shook his head, too lazy to say anything more. He simply consumed the Nine-Grade Purple Ganoderma and began to cultivate.

Ye Lingling and Dugu Yan had been worried about Su Chen just a moment ago, but seeing that he was fine, they both breathed a sigh of relief. At the same time, the image of Su Chen from just a moment ago flashed through their minds—what a huge hunk!

Pah! How shameful.
