"What kind of poison is this? It can even kill Ten-Thousand-Year Soul Beast?"
Zhao Wuji stared at the distant Azure Scale Poisonous Mist, his face filled with horror. Was he terrified? Of course! If the outermost layer of poisonous mist was so powerful, who knew what even more dangerous things might be hidden inside! But along with the fear, a hint of greed also quietly arose.
This is incredibly intriguing! What kind of treasure could possibly be worthy of being protected by this deadly poisonous fog? It probably contains something that even Titled Douluo would covet!
Zhao Wuji was very hesitant at this moment, and Shangguan Hong took in his expression. Everything was developing as Shangguan Hong had expected, so all that was left was to give him one last push.
" Teacher Zhao, what do you think is inside? Why don't we go take a look?"
As Shangguan Hong spoke, he quietly took out two water pouches, seemingly casually giving one to Zhao Wuji before drinking from it himself. Zhao Wuji, lost in thought, also unhesitatingly put the water pouch into his mouth; it was bland and tasteless, just like normal water.
The icy sensation of the liquid going down his throat allowed Zhao Wuji's brain to make a decision!
"Damn it, if we just slink away like this, that old bastard Flender will laugh me to death when he finds out! I'll give it a shot. You wait here, I'm going to find out what's going on!"
Faced with enormous profits, no one can remain absolutely calm. Take Zhao Wuji, for example. He had repeatedly instructed Shangguan Hong that they should retreat immediately if they encountered danger. But now, he was still consumed by greed and chose to take this step.
With his Martial Soul Possession, Zhao Wuji cautiously entered the poisonous fog. But the moment he took that step, a cold sweat broke out all over Zhao Wuji body! The emerald green poisonous fog actually managed to penetrate his protective Soul Power, silently entering his nostrils. The sweet and pungent smell made his head spin. The thought of those dead Ten-Thousand-Year Soul Beast instantly extinguished the greed that had been stirred within Zhao Wuji! He instinctively tried to escape from the poisonous fog, but suddenly tripped and in his panic, inhaled a large gulp.
" Teacher Zhao!"
Shangguan Hong feigned anxiety, summoning his Martial Soul, the Golden Spatula. Azir appeared, and his Desert Soldier quickly rushed into the poisonous fog and carried Zhao Wuji out.
At this moment, Zhao Wuji's eyes were filled with stars, and he was almost fainting.
"Kid, absolutely, absolutely do not go in! This poison has a very strong hypnotic effect. Get out of here, get out of here!"
Zhao Wuji had no doubt whatsoever that he had already been poisoned on his very first night in the Sunset Forest, the moment he ate the first meal Shangguan Hong brought him! The water he had just drunk was a trigger for the sleeping pills. The effects of the drugs that had accumulated in his body for several days suddenly kicked in, but because he had just fallen and inhaled a large amount of poisonous gas, Zhao Wuji instinctively thought that there was something fishy about the poison.
Shangguan Hong cleared himself of all charges. His face was full of anxiety. After comforting Zhao Wuji for a few moments, he ordered the soldiers to lift him up into the treetop. After settling Zhao Wuji in a wide branch, he began to shake Zhao Wuji's body like a madman, calling out to him.
The attempt to wake him lasted a full two minutes, but Zhao Wuji slept like a log!
'Heh, it seems this sleeping pill is indeed very effective! Even a Soul Saint would fall for it if they weren't careful! I'll sleep well for 24 hours; a day is enough time for me to completely clear out the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well!'
Shangguan Hong sneered inwardly, but even with such a safe approach, he still unfolded his Purple Dead Sea. After confirming that there were no humans nearby, he jumped into the Void without hesitation, mounted Baron Nashor, and sped towards the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well.
The Void can devour anything, including these poisons, but Shangguan Hong doesn't like to leave himself any openings, and coincidentally, the Purple Dead Sea will never leave any openings.
With the blessing of the Void, Shangguan Hong entered the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well without any hindrance. However, when he arrived, he was shocked by the scene before him!
All I saw was:
An oval-shaped lake sits here, with two streams of water, one red and one blue, flowing through it. The two streams touch each other but do not disturb each other, with heat waves and cold tides coexisting, creating a yin-yang symbol that is interwoven with red and blue! Even an ordinary person can see its extraordinary nature at a glance.
Not to mention the rich spiritual energy of the plants and trees. On the left are rare and precious flowers, and on the right are ferocious and enchanting poisonous plants and strange trees. The sky is cloudless and no bird dares to set foot here. The water mist generated by the confluence of the two springs floats above the springs, which adds to the feeling of a fairyland!
It truly is a treasure land nurtured by heaven and earth!
"This, this is..."
Shangguan Hong swallowed hard, seemingly astonished even Baron Nashor beneath him. Although he knew the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well was extraordinary, seeing it with his own eyes still made him realize the limitations of his imagination.
The spiritual energy here is extremely rich; it seems that taking a breath would loosen the Soul Power within one's body. Although Shangguan Hong knew that this was most likely a placebo effect, he was so excited that his hands were trembling.
"This is the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well, a rare treasure land in the world!"
Shangguan Hong took a deep breath, forcibly suppressing the excitement in his heart, but it seemed to be of no use. He knew he didn't have much time left, so...
"Baron, charge! I don't care if it's a rare treasure, a divine ingredient, or even a worthless weed by the roadside, I'll devour it all! The Void needs nourishment, and so do I! All things in this world belong to the virtuous, and I happen to be the most virtuous person in the world!"
Shangguan Hong's eyes gleamed red, his mouth stretched to his ears, and saliva spilled uncontrollably, his face filled with greed! Baron Nashor had long since lost control of his devouring urge. Without any hesitation, the baron began to devour like a madman, and Shangguan Hong poured all the Soul Power in his body into his First Soul Skill, making the baron's aura even more terrifying.
Its gaping maw was as unfathomable as an abyss, and the Baron's speed was so fast that it left afterimages! It greedily circled the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well, starting with the ordinary herbs and trees on the outermost edge where the spiritual energy of heaven and earth was weak. Everything in sight was swallowed by the Baron, leaving only bare rock walls.
This devouring was too crazy; Shangguan Hong didn't even consider leaving anything behind. He wished he could take away a third of the land here!
The power of the Void is immense; it accepts all energy, whether toxic or harmful, pure or sacred!
What was once a precious land was completely destroyed by Baron Nashor in just half an hour. Apart from the small patch of grass where Shangguan Hong was, all that remained was a place where countless immortal treasures had gathered.
At this moment, Shangguan Hong was about to burst!
