Lin Mo looked at the Charmander that had already evolved in front of him—no, it should be called Charmeleon now—and a very satisfied expression appeared on his face.
Although his Soul Power only increased by one level, Charmeleon's strength was significantly greater than when it was Charmander.
The most direct manifestation of this is that if the Charmeleon were to face Yu Tianheng again at this stage, it would not need to use any amplification-type Soul Skill; it could easily overpower Yu Tianheng, a Soul Elder- level Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Soul Master, simply by virtue of its own qualities.
"Come here." Lin Mo beckoned to the Charmeleon, feeling somewhat uneasy.
To his great relief, Charmeleon, just like when it was Charmander, happily ran towards him.
Unlike some Charizard that, after undergoing successive evolutions, became completely unresponsive to their trainers' commands.
The Charizard became unusually irritable.
His Charmeleon is as obedient as ever, which is good.
"Why did your Martial Soul suddenly evolve?" Dugu Bo stared intently at the Charmeleon beside Lin Mo, which was noticeably taller than before, and asked in a slightly trembling voice.
"Please don't tell me that the evolution of your Martial Soul is related to those two poisonous herbs you ate earlier—"
"That's not it." Lin Mo shook his head, denying Dugu Bo's guess.
He pondered for a moment, remaining silent for a while before slowly offering Dugu Bo an explanation he could accept. "I'm not entirely sure of the specific reason why it suddenly completed its evolution, but I suspect it might be related to the Second Soul Ring I absorbed."
" Second Soul Ring?" Dugu Bo asked, puzzled.
"Yes, that's right." Lin Mo nodded, then stroked the Charmeleon while signaling it to slowly release its two Soul Ring.
"This little guy's Second Soul Ring comes from a Scarlet Blood Lesser Dragon with eight hundred years of cultivation; its bloodline grade is quite strong."
"Before evolution, if judged by bloodline level, Charmander should only be classified as Earth Dragon with a thin dragon bloodline;
But now that it has completed its evolution, I call it the Charmeleon. The Charmeleon should be able to catch up with the original Scarlet Blood Lesser Dragon in terms of bloodline rank and can be classified as Subdragon.
It has seen a significant improvement in its bloodline, and its Martial Soul Origin has also been greatly enhanced in the process.
"Can a single Subdragon Soul Ring really Martial Soul Evolution your Earth Dragon Martial Soul to the level of Subdragon Martial Soul?" Dugu Bo asked with a puzzled tone.
Because of his own Martial Soul, he has done a lot of research on Martial Soul.
If a single Subdragon Soul Ring could enable Earth Dragon Martial Soul to evolve, then there wouldn't be so many low-level Martial Soul on the Douluo Continent.
At least for now, Lin Mo's claim is untenable.
Upon hearing this, under Dugu Bo's expectant gaze, Lin Mo shook his head again. "No, according to my perception, that Second Soul Ring produced by the Scarlet Blood Lesser Dragon can at most be considered a trigger."
"What truly enabled Charmander to complete its evolution was this treasure land called the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well, especially the Blazing Hot Yang Spring in one of its two springs."
If Charmander's perception is correct, the initial creation of this treasure land must be related to powerful dragons.
Otherwise, it wouldn't have been possible for the Charmander to evolve simply from the lingering scent of its kind left in the spring water.
"Of course, the reason why you were able to suppress the backlash of toxins in your body by taking advantage of this unique environment is because of this."
One reason is the unique extreme environment here, alternating between extreme cold and extreme heat; another reason is very likely the presence of the aura left behind by a superior being of the same Martial Soul type.
"Was the appearance of those few Earth Dragon Golden Melon also due to this reason?" Dugu Bo scratched his head and continued to ask.
He did indeed sense an extremely compatible aura emanating from the Earth Dragon Golden Melon, which should be the superior aura of his Jade Phosphorous Serpent Emperor Martial Soul.
If what Lin Mo said is true, and the real reason for the initial birth of the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well was related to an extremely powerful dragon-type Soul Beast, then that makes sense.
"I don't know either."
Lin Mo shook his head. "I only have a superficial understanding of this. What I just said was just some guesses that I think are reasonable, based on the information that the Charmander sensed in the Blazing Hot Yang Spring."

"Enough, enough." Dugu Bo shook his head. "How this place came to be is no longer important; it's in my hands now anyway."
Seeing that Lin Mo was also unclear about the situation, Dugu Bo didn't intend to delve any further into the matter. He then took out the largest Earth Dragon Golden Melon from his Storage Soul Tool and asked, "How should we eat this? We're not going to do what you did earlier, and immediately soak in that ice-fire spring water after eating it, are we?"
A deep sense of apprehension flashed across Dugu Bo's tone.
Lin Mo shook his head, then pointed to a large pink flower not far away, "No need for that, just eat it directly, finish it completely, there's no special way to consume it."
"Of course, if possible, senior, you'd better go and eat it next to that big flower. I've seen records about that big flower before."
It is a product called "Aromatic Silk Beauty," which has the effect of neutralizing various toxins, hence its reputation as the "Killer of Nemesis of a Hundred Poisons."
Seeing this, Dugu Bo looked in the direction Lin Mo was pointing and saw the Aromatic Silk Beauty that he had mentioned.
It was a large, pale pink flower with no leaves, a stem three feet long, and an extremely large bloom, with a diameter of about a foot.
Each petal looked as clear and translucent as crystal, and the stamens were pale purple, like purple diamonds set there.
"Next to the Aromatic Silk Beauty, you can safely consume the Earth Dragon Golden Melon to enhance your Martial Soul without worrying about the toxins flaring up during the process."
Okay, I believe you.
Dugu Bo gave Lin Mo a deep look, then without further hesitation, he arrived in the area enveloped by the fragrance of the Aromatic Silk Beauty in a few flashes.
Dugu Bo then put the Earth Dragon Golden Melon in his hand into his mouth and ate it in big mouthfuls.
To Dugu Bo's slight surprise, the Earth Dragon Golden Melon melted instantly in his mouth, quickly transforming into a warm current that settled in his lower abdomen.
Seeing this, Dugu Bo no longer hesitated, sat cross-legged, entered a meditative state, and began to refine the medicinal power of the Earth Dragon Golden Melon.
Even though he had only begun to refine the medicinal power, a look of wild joy had already appeared on Dugu Bo's face.
He could sense that, under the influence of the Earth Dragon Golden Melon's power, the original power of his Jade Phosphor Serpent Emperor Martial Soul had begun to increase.
Whether it was his imagination or not, he seemed to sense that the bottleneck of Soul Power that had been hindering him for many years was showing signs of loosening.
Lin Mo glanced at Dugu Bo, who had already entered a meditative state, but did not go forward to disturb him.
After signaling the Charmeleon to return to the Blazing Hot Yang Spring for a bath, Lin Mo also began to wander around and look at things in the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well.
Although he cannot take any new immortal Immortal Herb to enhance himself before the medicinal power of the Octagonal Mysterious Ice Grass and the Infernal Delicate Apricot in his body is fully refined, otherwise there is a risk of medicinal conflict.
But that doesn't mean he can only look at these Immortal Herb with envy and can't eat anything.
It would be possible to Copycat what Tang San did in another timeline: after consuming the Octagonal Mysterious Ice Grass and the Infernal Delicate Apricot complete the Ice and Fire Golden Body, one could then consume a purely auxiliary Immortal Herb.
Full Moon Wearing Autumn Dew!
Besides, he's already come all this way, and he's done Dugu Bo such a big favor, so we can't let him go back empty-handed. He should bring back some souvenirs for his teachers!
After completing the Ice and Fire Golden Body, the Blazing Hot Yang Spring and the Extreme Cold Yin Spring in the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well are like warm water and cold water to Lin Mu, posing no threat whatsoever.
Moreover, the slight cold and heat emanating from the Ice and Fire Springs had absolutely no effect on him.
He can move freely within this Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well, unaffected.
However, what Lin Mo found slightly regrettable was that even with the knowledge of medicinal herbs he had learned at the medical clinic during this period and his memories from his previous life, which corroborated each other, he was still unable to achieve his goal.
He could only identify a small portion of the Immortal Herb within the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well. For the parts he couldn't distinguish, Lin Mo could only keep his distance for the time being.
Although he is no longer afraid of Toxic, it doesn't mean that the people around him can withstand the indiscriminate nourishment from celestial-grade herbs.
While tonics are beneficial, they shouldn't be taken indiscriminately, otherwise, they can cause problems.
If we want to make full use of this Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well, we still need the help of a top expert who has extensive knowledge of herbs.
