Chapter 27: Ice and Fire Body Tempering
Dragon Chen knew that the narcissus jade muscle bone had the effect of moistening tendons, supplementing bones, and clearing the seven meridians and eight extraordinary channels.
Its medicinal effects might be able to cleanse Dugu Yan's body of Bi Lin Snake Venom.
Even if it couldn't be completely removed, Dragon Chen still had a backup plan.
As for detoxifying Dugu Bo, that would be even easier to handle.
After a period of treatment, he only needed to tell him to slowly force the toxins in his body into his head Spirit Bone.
After all, Dugu Bo was too deeply poisoned for ordinary medicines to cure him.
Of course, Dragon Chen wouldn't tell him the detoxification method too early.
Dugu Bo was half-convinced by Dragon Chen's words.
However, since he had already brought Dragon Chen to his herb garden, there was no need for too many concerns.
"Boy, I'll trust you for now. Some herbs here are highly poisonous; even I don't dare to touch them easily, so be careful. Also, absolutely do not touch those two springs; even I cannot withstand their scorching and extreme cold, let alone you."
"Okay, I understand."
After Dugu Bo left, Dragon Chen could no longer suppress the excitement in his heart.
From the moment he awakened his Spirit, he had planned to enter the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well, and this moment had finally arrived.
Although he had never seen those Immortal Herbs, as a person from another World, he could identify those top-grade Immortal Herbs just by the descriptions in the original work.
Dragon Chen came to the edge of the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well's spring water.
There was no temperature or aura on the calm spring water.
But he knew that the temperature of the vermilion spring water was comparable to scorching magma; if a person fell in, they would turn into pus in an instant.
The milky white spring water had a temperature that could Ice Seal everything; anyone who fell in would instantly be frozen into an ice sculpture.
At the center of the scorching Yang Spring, there was a plant that looked like a cabbage but was entirely fiery red.
At the center of the extremely cold Yin Spring, there was a white herb whose top looked like a large white flower, octagonal in shape.
Dragon Chen knew that these were the Fiery Apricot Velvet and Octagonal Mysterious Ice Grass, which had mutually restraining effects.
After consuming and absorbing their medicinal effects simultaneously, the body would reach a state of being immune to all poisons and resistant to both ice and fire.
Both of these Immortal Herbs were highly poisonous, and there were specific methods for harvesting and consuming them.
However, this did not stump Dragon Chen, as he had already prepared.
Dragon Chen did not rush to pick them but looked around instead.
A pink light shield caught his attention.
The pale pink light shield, about ten meters in diameter, was emanating from a large pink flower at its center.
Based on the characteristics it displayed, Dragon Chen recognized it at a glance as the Serene Fragrance Qiluo Immortal Product.
The Serene Fragrance Qiluo Immortal Product was the bane of all poisons; although it could not detoxify, it could restrain toxins.
Additionally, its fragrance had a wonderful use: it could be used to attract powerful Spirit Beasts.
Dragon Chen continued to observe.
When he saw a plant, his eyes suddenly lit up.
Its roots and leaves were like a vine canopy, but its top was a golden tulip.
The rich fragrance emanating from it gave off a sense of grandeur.
Dragon Chen knew that this was the Qiluo Tulip, which could potentially change Ye Lingling's fate.
"Qiluo Tulip, I finally found you."
"I wonder if Lingling's Spirit will evolve after absorbing this Immortal Herb. Even if it can't evolve, her spirit power will be greatly increased. After all, this is a top-grade Immortal Herb."
Dragon Chen continued to observe.
According to the memories in his mind, he found the Yearning Heartbroken Red, Qirong Tongtian Chrysanthemum, Cockscomb Phoenix Sunflower, eight petal immortal orchid, Autumn Water Dew, Nine-Grade Purple Ganoderma, and other Immortal Herbs.
Just by strolling around this Immortal Herb garden for a while, he felt some discomfort in his body.
The aura of the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well's spring water was unbearable for ordinary people.
Dragon Chen knew that after consuming the Octagonal Mysterious Ice Grass and Fiery Apricot Velvet, he would be able to stay here for a long time.
Without much thought, he sat cross-legged on the opposite bank at the junction of the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well's spring water, releasing his Darknight Demon Lyre and spirit ring.
As his first spirit ring and second spirit ring simultaneously lit up, the Gourmand Shadow and Nine-tailed Fox shadow condensed into form in the blink of an eye.
Dragon Chen threw out a golden metal blade with his left hand and a jade blade with his right hand, flying them respectively towards the Octagonal Mysterious Ice Grass and Fiery Apricot Velvet, severing them.
Under his control, almost at the same time, the Gourmand Shadow pounced on the Octagonal Mysterious Ice Grass, and the Nine-tailed Fox shadow pounced on the Fiery Apricot Velvet.
The shockwaves from the two shadows sent the two Immortal Herbs in front of Dragon Chen.
The moment they landed, the extreme cold and extreme heat from the two Immortal Herbs, their cold and hot auras, simultaneously disappeared.
The Octagonal Mysterious Ice Grass was enveloped in a faint fiery red light, while the Fiery Apricot Velvet was enveloped in a faint icy aura.
Although these two herbs were restrained by each other's aura, their medicinal effects would completely disappear within ten breaths.
Therefore, he had to consume them quickly.
Dragon Chen didn't hesitate at all, directly picking up the two highly poisonous Immortal Herbs and simultaneously putting them into his mouth, chewing and swallowing them in large gulps.
Although they were highly poisonous Immortal Herbs, when mixed together, they tasted quite good, with a fragrant aroma.
Afterward, Dragon Chen quickly sat cross-legged and began to circulate the spirit power within his body.
He knew that the impact of the two powerful energies, extreme cold and extreme heat, was about to arrive.
Sure enough, in less than a minute, his body trembled violently.
Immediately after, a layer of ice-blue rose from his feet, and his entire body turned blue.
In the blink of an eye, another layer of red rose, and he looked as if he were on fire.
The extreme cold and extreme heat brought by the blue and red lights appeared alternately on his body, as if to tear his body apart.
If he hadn't eaten the whale gum, he probably wouldn't have been able to endure it.
Dragon Chen endured the pain.
He knew that he had to wait for the medicinal effects of these two Immortal Herbs to take effect before he could enter the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well's spring water.
If he entered too early, he would end up with no bones left.
"It's time!"
Dragon Chen slowly moved his steps and plunged into the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well's spring water in front of him.
After submerging into the spring water, the pain in his body indeed disappeared.
What also disappeared was his consciousness.
The two energies of ice and fire were too powerful, stirring wildly within his body. Under the instantaneous burst of energy, Dragon Chen fell into a coma.
The surface of the spring water gradually returned to calm; the extremely hot and extremely cold springs remained distinct.
Time passed minute by minute, from day to night, and then to day again.
After an unknown period, Dragon Chen gradually regained consciousness and found himself floating at the convergence of the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well's spring water.
Puff ~
Dragon Chen broke out of the water and landed on the shore.
After being baptized by the two powerful energies of ice and fire, he no longer felt any pain, only a feeling of complete comfort.
"This is great, I've finally taken the most crucial step."
Dragon Chen knew that the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well's spring water would help him absorb the medicinal properties of the Octagonal Mysterious Ice Grass and Fiery Apricot Velvet.
At this moment, he already possessed a body immune to all poisons and resistant to both ice and fire.
If he stayed longer, he wouldn't have to worry about toxins entering his body.
A few days later, Dugu Bo came to the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well and was surprised to find that the highly poisonous herbs in the center of the two springs were gone.
"Boy, where are those two herbs?"
"I ate them."
