Before long.

Following the guidance of the Blue Silver Grass, Zhou Tao arrived before a forest wrapped in poisonous things.

"This is the Jade Phosphor Serpent poison?"

Zhou Tao discovered that the area covered by this poisonous mist was truly somewhat too large.

Although his Ancient Tree of Life could naturally resist poison, the amount here was too great.

However, Zhou Tao did not panic.

The Life Blue Silver Tree in his hand rapidly spread out, bursting toward the surroundings.

The life force of the surrounding plants continuously flowed through the Life Tree and quickly entered his body, forming a special emerald-green protective film around Zhou Tao.

Then he began to test the speed at which this poisonous miasma corroded the protective film.

"Good. The speed of the miasma's corrosion can't keep up with the speed at which the protective film forms."

"In that case, I can get in smoothly."

However.

Just as Zhou Tao was about to enter the poisonous mist, an extremely vast pressure appeared above him.

"I didn't expect a bug to actually appear on the outskirts of my precious land."

"But since you've come, then stay here for me!"

Zhou Tao looked up and saw an old man in green clothes, with green hair, appearing overhead.

Nine neat spirit rings hovered beneath his feet.

Aside from that, the illusory figure of the Jade Phosphor Serpent Emperor flickered in and out behind him.

If an ordinary spirit master encountered such a scene, they might have been afraid.

But Zhou Tao's expression did not change, as calm as an ancient well.

He had not come blindly.

He had something to rely on.

At this moment.

Seeing that the person before him was actually unhurried and looked completely fearless, Dugu Bo was filled with surprise.

But this place was the foundation that kept the Dugu Family alive, the Dugu Family's greatest secret. Dugu Bo could not possibly allow information to get out.

Just as Dugu Bo was preparing to kill him mercilessly, Zhou Tao below spoke first.

"Senior Dugu, I have something you want."

"If you're willing to trade me the things inside for it, then everyone can be happy."

"Otherwise, you yourself know what end your family will meet in the future."

As soon as these words came out, Dugu Bo's gaze instantly sharpened.

He was a Titled Douluo. What could he possibly need?

The family's future end?

What end?

Could it be?

The Jade Phosphor Serpent poison causing the family's destruction?

Could this brat have a way to solve the Jade Phosphor Serpent poison?

"Brat, you'd best explain yourself clearly before you speak. I will only give you one chance."

As Dugu Bo spoke, he slowly landed not far from Zhou Tao.

In an instant, waves of thick, fishy stench entered Zhou Tao's mouth and nose.

"This feeling..."

Zhou Tao smiled faintly.

"Senior Dugu, it doesn't feel good to suffer a backlash from the poison of your own martial soul, does it?"

After Zhou Tao said this, a dense killing intent instantly locked onto him, as if Dugu Bo would immediately make a move if he did not give him a reasonable explanation.

A gentle life force spread out from within Zhou Tao's body, directly purifying the surrounding poison.

Even Dugu Bo sensed the powerful purifying power of this life force.

"Brat, I didn't expect a mere spirit master like you to actually possess such strong life force."

"If you don't explain what you just said clearly, you absolutely won't leave this place alive."

Facing Dugu Bo's threat, Zhou Tao remained calm and unhurried.

"Whenever it rains, do you feel an itching, numb sensation around your ribs?"

"And does this condition last longer as your strength increases?"

"With your current cultivation, whenever it flares up at noon and midnight, each episode lasts at least two hours."

"And every late night, a needle-like stabbing pain appears at the top of your head and beneath your feet, while your whole body spasms for half an hour."

"Being devoured by the backlash of your own poison, feeling pain so unbearable you'd rather die—it can't be pleasant, can it?"

With every sentence Zhou Tao spoke, Dugu Bo's expression darkened another shade.

If this secret was spread by the person before him, he did not dare imagine how those he had made enemies of would take revenge on him.

A complicated look flashed through Dugu Bo's eyes—hesitation, fear, wariness...

In an instant, the atmosphere at the scene turned icy to the extreme, as if a great battle might erupt at any moment.

"Kid, just who are you?"

Dugu Bo spoke with some wariness.

A victorious smile tugged at the corners of Zhou Tao's mouth. "Senior Dugu, my family is a family of physicians. I merely happened to enter this place by chance, wanting to search for medicinal herbs."

"The poison inside your body may not be impossible to cure."

Zhou Tao did indeed come from a family of physicians, only his parents had died early.

But from childhood, he had seen and heard it all around him and had obtained quite a bit.

Dugu Bo's expression shifted for a long while before he finally forced an ugly smile onto his face, and his Jade Phosphor Serpent Emperor martial soul also withdrew.

"Young friend, can you truly cure the poison in my body?"

"Senior Dugu, what I said is naturally true. However, do you really want to discuss it with me here?"

Dugu Bo immediately reacted. "In that case, young friend, please come inside."

"However, this old man does not recognize many of the medicinal herbs inside. Later, do not touch anything carelessly."

Zhou Tao quickly passed through the Jade Scale Poison Array. After entering the interior, the view suddenly opened up before him.

Though the valley was small, it was like a secret realm cut off from the mortal world!

The valley was covered in plants of every shape and form. They stretched their branches and leaves at will, each with a different posture, dazzling the eye.

Many flowers and grasses freely emitted magnificent glows, as if draped in a layer of dreamlike gauze.

What drew the most attention was the lake at the center of the valley.

Half the lake's surface was milky white like congealed fat, while the other half was vermilion like flowing fire.

The boundary was clear, yet they blended naturally, its form similar to taiji.

Most miraculous of all, within the milky-white and vermilion spring waters, each nurtured a unique plant.

Growing in the milky-white spring was an entirely ice-blue plant, its leaves spreading outward in an octagonal shape, surrounded by a bone-chilling cold.

It was none other than the Octagonal Mysterious Ice Grass.

Standing in the vermilion spring was a fiery-red plant, passionate and unrestrained—it was the Blazing Apricot Delicate.

There were also many other strange immortal herbs.

"As expected of the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well."

Hearing Zhou Tao's sigh, Dugu Bo turned his head over curiously.

"Kid, you actually know this place?"

Zhou Tao nodded.

"Not only does this place contain dense natural energy, but if plants grow here, it can also greatly accelerate their growth."

"And I suspect Senior Dugu is also relying on the energy of this place to suppress the poison within your body, correct?"

Zhou Tao spoke calmly, and Dugu Bo was instantly startled.

This person was rather impressive.

"Enough, kid. Since you've come in, go on, then. Tell me how you'll detoxify this old man."

"Of course. However, Senior Dugu, I need medicinal herbs as payment. You should not mind that, should you?"

Regarding this, Dugu Bo naturally had no objection and immediately nodded in agreement.

"As long as you can detoxify this old man and my granddaughter, you may take any medicinal herbs here as you please."

Dugu Bo stood with his hands behind his back and spoke generously.
