Chapter 15: Absorbing the Immortal Herbs, the Arrival of Dugu Bo

~8 min read 1,487 words

Before his eyes was a tall mountain wall, circular in shape, surrounding the area in a ring.

It looked just like a crater smashed out by a giant meteorite, and the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well and the Immortal Herbs were right inside it.

But Lin Yu knew this was not smashed out by a meteorite at all.

It was created when two powerful divine dragons died and fell here during a great war in the God Realm between beast gods and human gods.

And the divine dragons that died and fell here were none other than the Ice Dragon King and the Fire Dragon King, two of the nine great dragon kings under the command of the Dragon God, the strongest beast god in the God Realm.

It was precisely because the Ice and Fire Dragon Kings fell here that the energy emitted by their corpses eventually formed the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well over countless years, giving rise to these top-grade Immortal Herbs.

"I think the things we are looking for are inside here," Lin Yu said.

"Brother, protect Little Yu well, I will charge in first!"

Seeing this, Jiangmo Douluo took the lead in the charge, easily breaking through the various poison formations set up by Dugu Bo.

Under the protection of Qianjun, Lin Yu followed closely behind and also stepped inside.

He finally saw the pool, which had spring eyes of two colors: ice and fire.

As well as those Immortal Herbs beside the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well.

Lin Yu's eyes became incredibly fervent, and he was even more pleasantly surprised: "Good heavens, there are actually so many!"

What he saw were hundreds of Immortal Herbs, and just the ones that had already matured numbered in the dozens!

He didn't claim to recognize all of these Immortal Herbs, but at the very least, he had seen the vast majority of them!

This world's understanding of heavenly treasures and rare herbs was very shallow; even a Title Douluo like Dugu Bo, despite holding a pile of top-tier Immortal Herb resources, didn't know how to use them.

But there were always some people who would delve into this knowledge.

For example, the Break Clan, Yang Wudi.

And Chrysanthemum Douluo, Yue Guan.

And if one were to say who had the deepest understanding of Immortal Herbs, it would probably be Chrysanthemum Douluo.

Lin Yu had once learned that Chrysanthemum Douluo not only knew about the Strange Velvet Sky Chrysanthemum and the Lovesick Heartbroken Red, but also knew many more.

At that time, he wondered how Chrysanthemum Douluo knew about them.

Could it be in the Library of the Spirit Hall?

After all, the Spirit Hall had a long history of over ten thousand years and was the place with the richest reserve of knowledge resources on the entire Douluo Continent.

Thus, one day Lin Yu went to the floor of the Library that only Elders could enter.

Sure enough, in a corner already covered in dust, he discovered a book recording various Immortal Herbs!

Therefore, before coming, Lin Yu had already made all the preparations.

He discovered that among the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well, there was an Immortal Herb that was practically tailor-made for him.

This Immortal Herb was named the Seven-Colored Purple Gold Flower.

It possessed the same seven attributes as his martial soul: fire, water, earth, wind, light, darkness, and space; while not the most top-tier, it was the most suitable.

Lin Yu took it without hesitation and stored it separately in his Space Soul Guidance Device.

The Seven-Colored Purple Gold Flower also had the effect of consolidating one's foundation and increasing soul power level.

He was now at level 18 soul power and couldn't absorb it now, otherwise it would be too much of a waste.

Lin Yu planned to wait until after level 20, so his main targets for this trip were the Eight-Petaled Ice Orchid and the Ice and Fire Immortal Herb.

Of these two Immortal Herbs, one was top-tier fire poison, and the other was top-tier ice poison.

Absorbing these two Immortal Herbs would surely make Lin Yu's fire and water attributes stronger, while simultaneously allowing his body to truly achieve immunity to ice and fire!

Furthermore, it would make him immune to all poisons and enhance his physique; the effect would be far stronger than any Whale Glue!

Without a doubt, these two were the most top-tier Immortal Herbs for improving one's physique.

However, precisely because they were Immortal Herbs for improving one's physique, absorbing them would not provide much of a boost to soul power.

"I have found the resources I wanted, and now I will absorb them immediately. Please wait patiently here, two grandfathers!"

"No need to worry!"

Saying this, Lin Yu released his Angel wings and flew toward the top of the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well.

"After absorbing the Eight-Petaled Ice Orchid and the Ice and Fire Immortal Herb, I, Lin Yu, will be at least at the four-thousand-year level when I absorb my second Spirit Ring!!"

"Come on!"

"Eight-Petaled Ice!"

"Fire and Fire Immortal Herb!"

Lin Yu's wings spread out violently, and the ice and fire energy swept out, instantly pulling the two Immortal Herbs in front of him.

And he made them collide with each other.

Finally, he swallowed them in one go!

"Hmm? My body can actually briefly resist their top-tier ice and fire poisons? Never mind, for safety's sake, I must go down and absorb them immediately."

Splash!

Lin Yu dove into the spring eye in one go.

A long time later.

On the other side.

Dugu Bo was returning quickly to the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well, and beside him followed a young girl of about 13 years old.

The girl had short, deep purple hair and looked full of spirit; she couldn't be called absolutely stunning, but she was a rare beauty with a bewitching charm.

This girl was none other than Dugu Bo's granddaughter, Dugu Yan.

"Grandfather, I feel that if I come here to cultivate for a few more days this time, I will be able to break through to level 26! ~" Dugu Yan said with a happy face.

"Mm-hehe, is that so? My granddaughter is truly amazing!" Dugu Bo said with a kind face.

The Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well was the best sacred ground for Dugu Bo to cultivate his poison arts, and it was equally useful for Dugu Yan, so Dugu Bo often brought Dugu Yan here to cultivate whenever he had the time.

What puzzled Dugu Bo was that his granddaughter was clearly a genius with level 8 Innate Spirit Power, and she even had the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well, a sacred site for cultivating poison arts.

Why, at 13 years old, had her soul power only reached level 25?

He, Dugu Bo, had relied on the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well to reach the Title Douluo realm, so he knew exactly how fast it was to cultivate poison arts there.

Logically, with the assistance of such resources, his granddaughter should have at least broken through to level 30, right?

Dugu Bo even began to suspect whether his granddaughter had already been affected by the backlash poison of her Jade Phosphor Serpent martial soul, which had caused her cultivation speed to slow down.

"Sigh, I, Dugu Bo, have played with poison my whole life, yet I am helpless against the poison in my own body, and it even brings disaster upon my descendants. Yan Yan, Grandfather has failed you!" Dugu Bo sighed in his heart.

Soon, the grandfather and granddaughter arrived at the entrance of the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well.

"Not good! Someone has destroyed my poison array!"

Dugu Bo's expression changed abruptly, and killing intent instantly surged: "Which death-seeking wretch dares to trespass on my, Dugu Bo's, place of cultivation!"

Dugu Bo stormed in aggressively, bringing his granddaughter with him.

At this moment, Qianjun and Jiangmo were guarding near the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well, sitting cross-legged with their eyes closed in meditation.

They suddenly opened their eyes at the same time.

"Hmm?"

Because they had already sensed that Dugu Bo had arrived.

Yet, Qianjun and Jiangmo remained very calm, sitting cross-legged, as if the person who had arrived was merely a small fry.

And to them, Dugu Bo was indeed just a small fry.

"Brother, that fellow who plays with poison has arrived."

"Little brother, since we've encountered him, let's just kill him. Although this Dugu Bo's strength isn't much, he is renowned throughout the Hunshishi for his poison, and he is famous for being the best at group attacks."

"In the future, when our the Spirit Hall unifies the Dalu, if this Dugu Bo stands on the side of the empire, he will be quite a bit of trouble for us."
