Chapter 30: Light and Dark Twin Holy Dragons-Perfect for Icefire Body Tempering! Dugu Yan: Who Are You?

With that, Dugu Bo turned to Yin Changqing and asked impatiently:

"Young Master, can I take this Jade Dragon Fruit now?

And how should we arrange Yan's detoxification?"

"No need to rush, sir."

Yin Changqing laid out his plan:

"The Jade Dragon Fruit is extremely potent and contains pure dragon energy.

The snake venom has taken deep root in your body. If you swallow the fruit outright, the clash between the two forces could be dangerous.

I suggest we return to Heaven Dou City first and bring Sister Yan here."

"Here?"

Dugu Bo froze.

"That's right."

Yin Changqing nodded.

"Extreme heat and cold meet here. It's an ideal place to suppress poison, cleanse the marrow, and temper the body.

When the time comes, I'll first use a specially prepared Immortal Herb bath to cleanse Sister Yan's meridians and marrow, then use a Spirit Bone to draw the poison from her body completely.

After that, I'll teach you how to purge your poison. Together with the Jade Dragon Fruit, it should transform your Martial Soul and bring the poison under control in one stroke."

Dugu Bo's eyes shone as he stroked his beard.

"Excellent!

I'll go to Heaven Dou Royal Academy myself and bring Yan here at once!"

"Go on. I'll stay here with my son while he recovers his strength, and we'll sort out the remaining Immortal Herbs."

Yin Yu spoke calmly.

"Very well!

Brother Yin, Young Master, I'll be back soon!"

Without another moment's hesitation, Dugu Bo became a streak of green light and sped out of Sunset Forest.

Watching him leave, Yin Yu turned to Yin Changqing. A rare smile appeared on his stern face.

"Changqing, winning Dugu Bo over went more smoothly than I expected.

Where on earth did you learn all these obscure medicinal principles and techniques?"

Yin Changqing smiled, placed the remaining Jade Dragon Fruit in his Soul Tool, and answered calmly:

"I picked up a few things from ancient texts and worked out the rest.

Father, this place is a treasure born of nature. One day, it will be the Holy Dragon Sect's most vital foundation."

Yin Yu looked around at the spiritual energy hanging in the air and nodded.

"It truly is a priceless place.

Once your mother takes the Earth Dragon Golden Melon and makes her breakthrough, the Holy Dragon Sect will have three Titled Douluo within a few years.

We'll have the strength to stand firm even against Spirit Hall or the Upper Three Sects."

"And this is only the beginning."

Yin Changqing's gaze shifted to the two-colored waters of the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well.

"Once we've purged the poison from Dugu Bo and his granddaughter, I can use these Immortal Herbs to increase my own strength considerably."

Yin Yu clasped his hands behind his back and looked from the spring to Yin Changqing, curiosity in his voice.

"Changqing, can the plants in this garden truly change someone's fate as you say?"

"Father, nature's wonders go far beyond what most people imagine."

Yin Changqing took out the Immortal Herbs he had collected earlier and pointed to two of them.

"This one, icy white and radiating extreme cold, is called the Octagonal Mysterious Ice Grass.

That fiery-red one, with leaves like flowing Fine Gold, is the Infernal Delicate Apricot.

Taken alone, either is lethally poisonous. Even a Titled Douluo who swallowed one by mistake would turn into an ice sculpture or ashes in moments."

Yin Yu's gaze sharpened, and his voice grew grave.

"If they're that deadly, what do you intend to do with them?"

"Yin and yang counteract and balance each other."

Yin Changqing smiled faintly as he explained:

"If I take both at the same time, their extreme cold and heat will neutralize each other. Then, by jumping into the spring of the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well and circulating my Soul Power, I can undergo a complete transformation through the Ice and Fire Golden Body.

It will make my body incredibly tough and resistant to both water and fire. It will also expand my meridians to their limits and greatly increase my martial souls' resistance to extreme attributes."

Yin Yu frowned deeply, his voice turning heavier.

"Swallowing something of extreme yin and extreme yang at the same time... The slightest mistake could make your body burst apart. You intend to take them yourself?"

"My first martial soul is the Light Saint Dragon, firm and intensely yang.

My second is the Dark Sacred Dragon, intensely yin and malevolent."

Yin Changqing analyzed the matter calmly.

"I possess the twin extreme attributes of light and darkness. Ten-Thousand-Year Whale Rubber and several offensive amplification Spirit Skills have also laid a solid foundation for my body.

Across the entire Douluo Continent, no one is better suited to this method of tempering the body with ice and fire.

Only by using these two top-tier Immortal Herbs to scour my Meridians can I withstand older soul rings."

Yin Yu fell silent for a long while. Seeing the certainty in his son's eyes, he finally relaxed his brow and patted his shoulder.

"Very well!

If you're completely confident, I'll stand guard for you.

But first, let's sort out the other Immortal Herbs. We mustn't waste anything in this precious place."

"Exactly what I had in mind."

Yin Changqing took several specially made jade boxes, a gold knife, and a white jade spade from his Storage Soul Tool. Pointing to several rare plants around the garden, he explained them to Yin Yu one by one.

"Father, look. That luminous white Immortal Herb resembling a snow lotus is the Snow-Colored Swan Kiss.

It amplifies any poison a thousandfold. We can leave it near the poison formation for use as a lethal trump card."

"That purple orchid is the Aromatic Silk Beauty. It grants immunity to poisons and counters even the deadliest toxins. It's precisely what we need as the key ingredient when we purge Sister Yan's snake venom."

"As for the Narcissus Jade Muscle Bone, which looks carved from fine jade, and the radiant golden Velvet Sky Chrysanthemum..."

Yin Changqing harvested the plants with precision as he laid out his plans.

"The Narcissus Jade Muscle Bone nourishes the meridians and strengthens the body. We can save it for the Sect's core elites.

The Velvet Sky Chrysanthemum channels energy through the limbs and blood through the eight meridians, allowing one to cultivate an indestructible body.

When we return to the Sect, Grandfather and Mom can both use these to advance further.”

Yin Yu listened as Yin Changqing described each plant with effortless familiarity, wonder growing in his eyes.

As a level 95 Hyper Douluo, he had seen plenty of the world.

Yet when it came to the wonders of plants, his twelve-year-old son seemed like a reclusive master with a lifetime of knowledge.

"Changqing, with resources like these, it's only a matter of time before the Holy Dragon Sect reshapes the balance among the Upper Three Sects, perhaps even stands as an equal to Spirit Hall."

Yin Yu spoke with admiration.

"Spirit Hall is powerful, the Upper Three Sects each have their own agendas, and beneath the apparent calm of the two great empires, trouble is brewing."

Yin Changqing sealed the last jade box, put it back into his Storage Soul Tool, and said evenly:

"We need more than strength of our own. We need to secure Dugu Bo—the deadliest weapon against an army—firmly on our side.

With him, the Sect will have a formidable deterrent against any army that marches on us.”

Before he had finished speaking, the green poisonous miasma above the valley churned.

Two figures broke through it, swept down from the cliff, and landed steadily beside the spring.

They were Dugu Bo, back already, and Dugu Yan, whom he had brought with him.

Dugu Yan wore close-fitting combat clothes that showed off her figure, and her purple hair flowed down her back.

She surveyed the strange ice-and-fire spring, then fixed her gaze on Yin Changqing and Yin Yu.

“Grandpa, why did you drag me out of Heaven Dou Royal Academy in such a hurry? You wouldn't even let me finish Teacher Qin's class. What's this all about?”

Dugu Yan's brows drew together, a hint of displeasure in her voice.

"And who are these two?

Why did you bring outsiders into your private herb garden?"
