Deep in the spring of Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well, Huang Yun is undergoing the longest refining process since he traveled through time.

The power of ice and fire raged in his body for an unknown amount of time. Time lost its meaning in the pain. His consciousness was sometimes awake and sometimes blurred. He only relied on the last thread of will to cling to his heart and mind.

The heat of Infernal Delicate Apricot was like hot molten iron rushing through his Meridians, while the cold air of Octagonal Mysterious Ice Grass was like a sharp ice blade cutting his internal organs repeatedly.

The two extreme energies started a protracted tug-of-war in his body, colliding, tearing, and crushing each other. Each collision caused a layer of red or bluish-white color to appear on the surface of his skin, alternating, just like two craftsmen repeatedly quenching and repeating Ice Seal on the same person.

But after all, Huang Yun's body has been tempered and strengthened many times before.

The Indestructible Vajra Body of Singular Velvet Sky Chrysanthemum laid a solid physical foundation for him. The repeated tempering of Ten-Thousand-Year Whale Rubber made his bone and muscle density far higher than that of the same level. The two Hundred Thousand Year Soul Bone of Dragon Tail Soul Bone and Blue Silver Emperor Right Leg Bone provided him with additional vitality and toughness.

These accumulations may not be felt on ordinary days, but in this life-and-death moment, they are like layers of solid dams, blocking the impact of the power of ice and fire, without causing his Meridians to completely collapse.

The steam and ice crystals on the surface of the spring are still surging alternately, and bubbles bubble up from the depths. Sometimes it is so hot that the rocks beside the water sizzle, and sometimes it is so cold that a thin layer of ice forms on the surface of the spring.

Dugu Bo stood on the shore, with his hands behind his hands, his green pupils staring at the water without blinking.

He has been standing for nearly half an hour.

With his cultivation and patience, standing there for several hours would be nothing.

But in half an hour, what he saw shocked him again and again.

He watched with his own eyes the young man's figure floating and rolling in the spring water. The golden luster on the surface of his skin sometimes lit up and then dimmed, but no matter how raging the power of ice and fire was, the golden color was never completely extinguished.

"This kid... actually managed to withstand it." Dugu Bo whispered with unconcealed surprise in his tone.

He looked down at his palms. With his poison skills, within three breaths of jumping into this spring, he would be torn apart by the two extremely cold and extremely hot energies Meridians.

But this kid has been soaking for half an hour and is still insisting.

"Five-Ring Soul King's physical strength can reach this point. What has he experienced?"

Deep in the spring, Huang Yun's consciousness is undergoing a violent transformation.

Although the power of ice and fire is painful, the changes they bring are also all-round.

The blazing energy of Infernal Delicate Apricot is completely burning away the remaining impurities in his bones and Meridians. The tiny hidden wounds accumulated over the years of practice, the residue left by the medicine, and even some Meridians minor flaws that he himself was not aware of are all being removed in the high temperature.

The extreme cold power of Octagonal Mysterious Ice Grass follows closely behind, rapidly cooling and solidifying the areas boiled by high temperatures, making Meridians become denser and tougher, just like steel quenching. After being alternately tempered by ice and fire, the texture becomes purer and stronger.

The two forces circulated back and forth in his body, burning, cooling, burning again, and cooling again. Each cycle caused an imperceptible transformation in his body structure.

This process was extremely painful, but he could feel that his body was undergoing qualitative changes.

The wall of Meridians is thickening and toughening, and the circulation channel of Soul Power has been widened by nearly one-third.

A denser layer of golden luster appeared on the surface of the bones, and Indestructible Vajra Body's passive defense advanced silently for half a step under the temper of ice and fire.

The elasticity and explosive power of muscle fibers also continue to increase, and every fiber is rewoven in the alternation of extreme heat and extreme cold.

His blood is also changing.

The two extreme medicinal powers of Infernal Delicate Apricot and Octagonal Mysterious Ice Grass merged in his blood, forming a new equilibrium state.

From then on, his blood will have a natural anti-toxicity, and any toxins entering his body will be quickly neutralized and decomposed by this new blood.

Immunity to All Poisons.

Ice and Fire Immunity.

After passing this level, he no longer has to worry about any poison attacks.

Another stick of incense passed.

The alternation of ice and fire on the surface of the spring water began to slow down, and the frequency of the bubbles gradually decreased.

The extreme energy raging in the spring water seemed to have finally found some kind of balance. It no longer tore apart everything as violently as before, but began to flow through Huang Yun's body at a steady rhythm.

Dugu Bo was keenly aware of this change.

His body leaned forward slightly, and his eyes became more focused.

Although he still couldn't see the figure under the water clearly, he could feel that the Soul Power fluctuations in the body were changing from chaos to order, from violence to calmness.

That kid... is really refining successfully.

Dugu Bo's breathing became slightly heavier.

He has lived for so many years, has seen countless geniuses, and personally trained countless descendants, but like the boy in front of him, the twelve or thirteen-year-old Five-Ring Soul King, whose speed is so monstrous that even he can't catch him. His body can survive in Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well for so long, and he also knows the use of so many elixirs Immortal Herb that he can't even name. He really can't think of any force on the mainland that can cultivate such a person.

Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan?

Impossible.

Although that sect also has thunder attributes, their disciples take a strong attack route, and no one can reach this level in terms of agility and attack speed.

And Martial Soul is a dragon.

Even the other affiliated forces cannot reach this level.

Spirit Hall?

It doesn't quite look like it. He has heard a little about the core disciples trained by the Spirit Hall, but there is no such a masked thunder boy.

Dugu Bo The more I think about it, the more confused I feel.

But he did not continue to ask further.

There is only one thing he cares about most right now, that this kid comes out alive, and then uses his blood to untie the Backlash Poison on his body.

Another hour passed.

The surface of the spring finally calmed down completely.

The steam dissipated, the ice melted, and the water surface of Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well returned to a smooth blue mirror, as if nothing had happened.

The sunlight casts down from above the valley, illuminating the figure sitting cross-legged at the bottom of the spring.

Huang Yun closed his eyes, his whole body covered with a faint golden halo, like a sleeping sculpture in the depths of the blue spring water.

Then he opened his eyes.

Deep in the pupils, gold and blue flashed alternately, finally settling into a calm blue-gold color.

He slowly exhaled a breath of turbid air, and the bubbles rose up from his mouth, passed through the water and dispersed towards the sky.

He moved.

His body slowly stood up from the cross-legged posture, and the water surface separated from his chest. The Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well water retreated to both sides as if it was pushed away by an invisible hand.

Huang Yun stepped ashore on the water, soaked to the skin, but there was not a trace of water stains remaining on the surface of the skin, and the layer of pale golden halo blocked out all moisture.

He stood on the shore, took a deep breath, and felt the renewed strength in his body.

Meridians is broad and tough, with dense bones, and a cool and gentle power flowing in the blood, which is a sign that All-Poisons-Immunity Physique has firmly taken root.

Indestructible Vajra Body Although he has not broken through from Dacheng to perfection, he has made a big step forward after this tempering of ice and fire, and is only the last step away from Dacheng.

Soul Power has also been improved.

Advancing from level fifty-seven to level fifty-eight, although it is only one level, it is already a significant breakthrough in the Soul King realm.

After all, these two strains of Immortal Herb themselves do not have the effect of directly improving Soul Power.

Now he has been promoted to one level, which is also related to his accumulation over the years.

Otherwise, it would be impossible to push it up.

Dugu Bo stood a few steps away, looking at him silently.

Huang Yun raised his head, facing Dugu Bo's pair of turquoise pupils, and the corners of his mouth twitched slightly.

"Senior, this junior is not dead, can we negotiate a deal now?"
