Sunset Forest, within the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well.
"You brat, you claim you're confident you can cure me of the poison? Are you trying to trick me? Let me tell you, those rare and precious materials you speak of are fine, but if you get them but can't produce the desired results..."
Outside the isolated town, Dugu Bo waved his hand, and the dense poisonous fog, under his control, cleared a path just wide enough for two people to pass through. Before entering, Dugu Bo even stuffed a pill into Tang San's mouth to ensure that Tang San, who had boasted that he could cure the Jade Phosphorus Snake Poison, wouldn't die, before he felt at ease entering the poisonous array.
"Just snake venom! As long as you can find the rare and precious herbs I need, I'm 100% confident I can eradicate the snake venom from your granddaughter!"
Tang San was filled with trepidation. After all, even he couldn't face a Titled Douluo was so unpredictable! Now his life was completely in Dugu Bo's hands. Although he didn't understand why an old monster like Dugu Bo would promise to spare his life in front of everyone, it was at least a good thing.
For some reason, Tang San felt his heart beating faster and faster. With each step he took, the heart rate increased, as if something exciting was waiting for him ahead.
Breaking through the layers of poisonous fog, the first thing one felt was an abundance of spiritual energy, invigorating the spirit! Tang San was completely shaken. This subtle change caused Dugu Bo, standing beside him, to slightly raise the corners of his mouth. In his eyes, Tang San was quite arrogant, though his talent certainly gave him the right to be. However, even such an arrogant junior would be utterly astonished when he saw Tang San's prized herb garden!
Why does the spiritual energy emanating from the herb garden seem much thinner?
Dugu Bo was filled with doubt, a vague sense of foreboding rising within him. He unconsciously quickened his pace, Tang San close behind. After walking several dozen more steps, the two finally reached the top of the cliff. Logically, below should lie the naturally formed Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well, a place brimming with endless treasures, but...
"Where has my large medicinal herb garden gone? Who? Who trespassed on my territory!"
Dark green Soul Power erupted, Dugu Bo's hair and beard stood on end, and he looked like an enraged lion. His aura was terrifying, and his intense killing intent was mixed with cold poison gas. Tang San, who was beside him, suffered an undeserved disaster and was sent flying in the blink of an eye.
Dugu Bo was completely unable to remain calm!
Because what appeared before him was a desolate wasteland. If it weren't for the spring with its two colors of ice and fire, he wouldn't have recognized this as his own territory at all! No, even a third of the two-colored spring water had disappeared, as if it had been directly drained away by something. The ground was incredibly smooth, almost barren of vegetation. Where was the treasure basin Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well? All that remained were large tracts of black soil and exposed rocks.
I'm so angry! I'm so angry!
Dugu Bo's world collapsed! He regarded the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well as his lifeblood. It was the key to his breakthrough from Soul Douluo to Titled Douluo and his survival through countless days and nights of torment from the Jade Phosphorus Snake Poison. Normally, he would be extremely careful when picking any rare and precious herbs. But now, the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well had been taken away in the most brutal way.
"This is... the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well?!"
Tang San felt like his whole body was falling apart. He walked angrily to Dugu Bo's side, but unconsciously followed the other's gaze. The moment the two-colored spring water came into Tang San's eyes, the Tang Sect disciple exclaimed in surprise.
" The Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well, what is that?"
Dugu Bo was almost so angry that he vomited blood, heard the unfamiliar words and instinctively asked for clarification.
"A super treasure trove formed from springs of ice and fire, harnessing the power of nature's creation! Here, rare and precious natural treasures are as common as hairs on a cow, and may even nurture legendary celestial herbs! It's an extremely rare blessed land! However..."
Tang San's lips twitched slightly with excitement. In fact, if it weren't for the two-colored spring water, he wouldn't have recognized this place as the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well at all, since its desolate appearance was just too exaggerated.
"Forget about rare and precious herbs, how come we can't even find a single blade of grass? Senior Poison Douluo, even if you wanted to use rare and precious herbs, you should have left the roots behind! And this harvesting method is far too cruel!"
Unaware of the seriousness of the situation, Tang San continued talking to himself, causing Dugu Bo, who was listening nearby, to have veins bulging on his forehead.
"Nonsense! How could I not know the importance of preserving the roots when taking herbs? Someone has trespassed into my herb garden! Damn it, I hope I find out who it is, or I will tear the trespasser to pieces!"
Dugu Bo's chest heaved violently, but he quickly realized the seriousness of the situation. Before this, Tang San had said that a large number of rare and precious herbs were needed to eradicate the Jade Phosphorus Snake Poison from Dugu Yan's body, but now, his herb garden had been destroyed.
"Boy, come with me!"
Dugu Bo was heartbroken. He could only take out his treasured possessions. As the owner of the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well, he would usually collect many rare and precious materials to aid his cultivation. He just didn't know if any of those treasures contained what Tang San needed.
The two arrived at Dugu Bo's residence. After confirming that no one was around, Dugu Bo reluctantly took out a bag. It was clearly a storage Soul Tool Storage Soul Tool, and one that could store living things! The bag was opened, and rare and precious materials were piled up like a small mountain, instantly illuminating the room with the spiritual light emanating from them.
Tang San's pupils suddenly contracted!
"Is this... a thousand-year-old ginseng? Wild royal jelly? A human-shaped he shou wu (Polygonum multiflorum)? Top-grade bird's nest? Imperial saffron? Tian Shan snow lotus? Seven-colored lingzhi? Sea Dragon ambergris?"
"Hmph! What's this? Look at my collection!"
Another huge pile of rare and precious materials!
"A one-meter-long cordyceps, a five-meter-long geoduck, saber-toothed tiger bone, Aisin Gioro placenta, morning dew from Mars, Black Jade Bone-Mending Paste, unidentified saliva, and unidentified ribs..."
"Enough!"
Tang San's hands were trembling! He had never seen so many rare and precious herbs, some of which were even of immortal quality! He just didn't know why Dugu Bo hadn't consumed such treasures.
However, this is also good. With so many rare and precious materials at hand, he can not only fulfill his promise to Dugu Bo, but also take this opportunity to gain some benefits for himself! The massive amount of rare and precious materials is enough to raise his Soul Power to a rather terrifying level!
"Senior Poison Douluo, I finally understand why you are still alive even though the poison has seeped into your bones to such an extent!"
