Still an Immortal Herb Redemption Code (Please Follow and Bookmark)

Snow Empress met Ye Feng's resolute gaze and did not stop him again. She silently stepped aside.

"Don't worry. I know what I'm doing."

Ye Feng smiled to reassure her, then walked between the two immortal herbs. He took a deep breath and adjusted himself to his peak condition.

Dugu Bo watched from the side, his scalp tingling.

"Mad! He's completely mad!"

"The herbs and spring water are both highly poisonous. Even I wouldn't dare touch them. Jumping in is no different from suicide!"

Snow Empress cast him a cold glance. The terrifying pressure of a ferocious beast instantly silenced him.

"One more word, and he dies. You perish."

Dugu Bo shuddered all over and immediately fell silent, not daring to utter another word.

Ignoring Dugu Bo's muttering, Ye Feng's gaze swept back and forth between the Infernal Delicate Apricot and the Octagonal Mysterious Ice Grass.

"Which one was I supposed to pick first... Forget it, I'll take them both!"

He moved both hands at once. His left hand seized the Infernal Delicate Apricot, crimson all over and radiating scorching heat, while his right reached for the Octagonal Mysterious Ice Grass, coated in ice crystals and exuding a biting chill.

"Hiss—!"

The instant he touched them, Ye Feng's entire face twisted.

His left hand felt as though it were gripping a red-hot branding iron, while his right seemed to clutch ten-thousand-year ice. Two extremes of agony surged up his arms and straight into his skull.

"Damn, this is even more intense than Evil Fire Backlash!"

Ye Feng gritted his teeth and violently tore the two immortal herbs free. He stuffed them wholesale into his mouth without even chewing, then swallowed them.

"Urgh—ah!"

In an instant, two tyrannical forces of ice and fire exploded within his body.

The left half of his body felt as if it had been drenched in lava, while the right seemed to have fallen into an ice cavern that had existed for ten thousand years.

He felt his meridians, bones, and organs being frantically torn apart and tempered, as though his entire body were about to be ripped in half.

"Splash!"

Without hesitation, Ye Feng leaped into the point where the Ice and Fire Yin-Yang Well converged.

"Sizzle—!"

The spring water instantly boiled. Crimson and white waters surged madly into Ye Feng's body, intertwining and colliding with the two forces of ice and fire.

In an instant, Ye Feng was wrapped within a cocoon of red and white light.

The surface of his skin alternated between glowing crimson like heated iron and being covered in frost, producing sharp cracking sounds.

"How... how is this possible?!"

Dugu Bo's eyelids twitched wildly as disbelief filled his face.

He understood the power of the ice-and-fire spring water all too well.

The extreme ice and extreme fire contained within were forces even a Titled Douluo like him did not dare endure for long.

Yet now, a brat who had not even reached Soul Grandmaster had not only endured it, but was even absorbing the spring water's ultimate power!?

What kind of freak was this?

Snow Empress stood quietly at the spring's edge, her icy eyes watching Ye Feng rise and sink in the water as her fingers slowly curled within her sleeve.

One day and one night later.

The cocoon of light in the spring gradually stabilized. The red and white radiance no longer clashed violently, instead beginning to slowly merge.

In the end, it transformed into a strange pale gold, like flowing molten gold.

"Crack..."

The first fissure appeared across the surface of the cocoon. Immediately afterward, cracks spread like a spiderweb.

"Boom!"

The pale golden cocoon shattered with a thunderous blast, and a figure slowly rose from the spring water.

Droplets slid down his lean, powerful body. His skin had taken on a pale golden hue, smooth as jade yet faintly gleaming with a metallic luster.

His formerly fiery-red short hair seemed to have grown somewhat longer, its tips now tinted with a trace of icy blue.

Beside the scarlet-gold phoenix mark between his brows, an indistinct pattern of ice crystals had appeared.

Ye Feng opened his eyes, and scarlet-gold and icy-blue light flashed through them before vanishing.

He clenched his fist, his bones crackling sharply as an unprecedented sense of power filled his entire body.

"It worked! The Ice and Fire Golden Body!"

Ye Feng grinned, revealing a mouthful of white teeth.

Dugu Bo stepped closer and examined Ye Feng carefully, clicking his tongue in amazement.

"Ice and fire in one body, with such perfectly harmonized aura... Boy, what kind of physique is this? I've never even heard of it!"

"A family secret. Not for public release."

Ye Feng chuckled. "Still, I have to thank you, Senior, for sponsoring this precious place!"

Not only had he forged the Ice and Fire Golden Body, but his Soul Power had also risen four levels in a row. With Upgrade Refund added in, his Soul Power had now reached level twenty.

As long as he obtained a Soul Ring, he could immediately rise another level.

The only regret was that his fire attribute had not improved.

But that made sense. The Nether Karma Fire Phoenix was already ultimate fire. Taking another step forward would enter the realm of gods.

The gap in between was not something immortal herbs could bridge.

Dugu Bo's mouth twitched. Watching the herbs he had painstakingly cultivated get ruined broke his heart, yet he dared not show his anger. He could only force a dry laugh.

"As long as you like them, little friend."

Noticing the strain in Dugu Bo's tone, Ye Feng wore a warm smile. "Don't worry, Senior. I won't take your herbs for nothing. I'll definitely give you a reward that satisfies you."

Dugu Bo gave two dry laughs but did not respond.

A little brat whose feathers had not even grown in yet was talking about offering a reward that could satisfy a Titled Douluo.

If the icy Titled Douluo beside him said it, that would be more believable.

Ye Feng noticed the trace of disdain on Dugu Bo's face, but he did not care. He simply continued.

"Senior, whenever it rains, does the area below the third vertebra of your spine feel as though it's being pierced by needles? And every midnight, does your Soul Power circulation become sluggish, while the crown of your head and the soles of your feet suffer needle-like stabbing pain?"

"Am I right?"

With every sentence Ye Feng spoke, Dugu Bo's face turned a shade paler, and his breathing grew more rapid.

"You... how do you know!?"

This was his greatest secret. Outsiders could not possibly know about it!

Even Snow Empress beside them glanced over slightly.

She had not expected that a human Titled Douluo who cultivated poison arts had already been deeply poisoned himself.

"It's simple."

Ye Feng smiled faintly. "Walk by the river often enough, and your shoes are bound to get wet. Your hair has a greenish tint, your eyes are clouded with gray, and there's a faint fishy sweetness in your breath. It's obvious you've been poisoned deeply."

"Your poison arts are formidable, but they injure the enemy for a thousand while costing you eight hundred. The poison's backlash has seeped into your bones. Drag this out another three to five years, and even a Titled Douluo probably won't withstand it."

Dugu Bo's breathing became rapid as his green eyes fixed tightly on Ye Feng.

"You know so much... Could it be that you know how to solve it?"

"Of course."

Ye Feng nodded confidently. "Not only can I cure your poison, I can cure your granddaughter's poison as well!"

At the mention of his granddaughter, Dugu Bo was struck as if by lightning and froze in place.

He had never expected the Green Phosphor Snake Poison to torment him alone not being enough—it even wanted to take away his only family member!

After a long while, Dugu Bo recovered and finally made up his mind. He said in a deep voice.

"As long as you can cure my granddaughter and me of our poison, my life, Dugu Bo's life, will be yours!"

Ye Feng smiled faintly and pointed toward the ice-and-fire spring behind him. "Actually, curing the Green Phosphor Snake Poison is very simple."

"All this time, you've used the spring water to suppress the snake poison. That's simply a waste of heaven's gifts."

"All you need is a Soul Bone, together with the ice-and-fire spring's suppression of toxins, and you can transfer all the poison in your body into the Soul Bone."

"At that point, you will no longer need to fear the Green Phosphor Snake Poison's backlash. Once the toxins are drained away, your strength can even break through further."
