After obtaining the Poyi Clan's pharmacopoeia, Xue Tianxing couldn't wait to pull Liu Tianfeng's sleeve, his eyes shining brightly as if quenched with light:
"Grandpa Liu, hurry up! Let's go to Tiandou City to find Senior Dugu and his medicine garden to find the immortal herbs!"
Liu Tianfeng looked at his impatient look and couldn't help laughing:
"You kid are even more anxious than me, an old man who is looking forward to a breakthrough."
Having said that, Liu Tianfeng's soul power surged, and the speed of the Frost Wind Sword increased a bit, and he rushed towards Tiandou City with Xue Tianxing.
The wind whistled in my ears, and the mountains, forests and fields below were rapidly receding.
In just half an hour, the outline of Tiandou City appeared in sight again.
Liu Tianfeng landed in a secluded wood outside the city and put Xue Tianxing down.
"I'll stay here, and you can go in and find that old poisoner. Remember, be careful and don't be too reckless."
"I know, Grandpa Liu!"
Xue Tianxing responded, turned around and ran towards Tiandou City, his steps full of excitement.
He hurried all the way and soon arrived at the gate of Dugu Mansion. Just as he raised his hand to knock on the door, it creaked open by itself.
Standing behind the door was Dugu Bo. He seemed to have been waiting for a long time. His dark green robe fluttered in the wind, and his tone was calm:
"Are you ready?"
Xue Tianxing nodded vigorously and said to Dugu Bo, "Everything is ready! Senior Dugu, shall we go to the medicine garden now?"
"Let's go when you're ready."
Dugu Bo said this, and without waiting for Xue Tianxing to react, he reached out and grabbed the back of his collar. The soul power under his feet suddenly burst out, carrying him into the air and flying towards the Sunset Forest.
Xue Tianxing only felt the whistling of the wind in his ears, and when he looked down he could see the treetops flying past below.
After about an incense stick of time, the two arrived deep in the Sunset Forest.
Dugu Bo took him through the forest for a while, and suddenly a thick purple-black poisonous miasma appeared in front of them. The miasma was rolling and emitting a heart-pounding toxic smell.
"Hold your breath and follow me."
Dugu Bo gave a warning, and a faint soul barrier appeared around his body, isolating the poisonous miasma outside, and he went straight through with Xue Tianxing.
The moment they passed through the poisonous miasma, the scene in front of them suddenly changed - the two of them were actually standing on the edge of a small basin.
Xue Tianxing looked down, his heart instantly beating wildly:
In the center of the basin, a spring was emitting a strange glow, half of it was blazing red, and half was icy blue. Where the red and blue springs met, wisps of white mist were rising. It was the Yin-Yang Eye of Ice and Fire!
Around the Yin-Yang Eye of Ice and Fire, many exotic flowers and plants grew in an orderly manner:
Some petals glow like glass, some leaves are covered with ice crystals, and some stamens seem to have tiny flames burning in them... Each one exudes a rich yet pure soul energy, and they are obviously rare immortal herbs!
Xue Tianxing stared with his eyes wide open and swallowed subconsciously - the scene he had seen in the anime in his previous life was now vividly presented before his eyes, and the shock was far stronger than he had imagined.
Xue Tianxing could even vaguely recognize a few familiar fairy herbs: the one with sword-like leaves seemed to be "Wang Chuan Qiu Shui Lu"; the one with a flame-like red flower was probably "Liehuo Xing Jiao Shu"; and the one covered with ice crystals was probably "Bajiao Xuanbing Grass"...
"Are the herbs here what you need? Are they enough?"
Dugu Bo's voice came from the side, bringing Xue Tianxing back to his senses from the shock.
Xue Tianxing nodded quickly, his voice trembling a little:
"Enough! That's more than enough! Senior Dugu, the herbs here are more than enough!"
Dugu Bo looked at Xue Tianxing's excited expression and asked calmly:
"That's enough. How long will it take you to select and use these magical herbs?"
Xue Tianxing lowered his head and thought for a moment - it takes time to identify the magic herb, and it takes even more patience to refine its medicinal effects after taking it. A month should be enough.
Xue Tianxing raised his head and said to Dugu Bo in a firm tone:
"Just give me a month. I will definitely be able to prepare the detoxifying herbs within that time, and I will also be able to select the magical herbs that are suitable for me."
"Okay, then I'll give you a month."
Dugu Bo nodded without staying any longer. Before leaving, he said to Xue Tianxing:
"You can use the magical herbs here as you please, just don't destroy the roots. I'll come back to check on the situation in a few days."
After he finished speaking, he moved and turned into a green shadow, disappearing into the poisonous miasma at the edge of the basin, leaving only Xue Tianxing alone beside the Yin-Yang Eye of Ice and Fire.
Looking at Dugu Bo's receding back, Xue Tianxing took a deep breath, suppressed the excitement in his heart, and rushed down the cliff quickly with the pharmacopoeia in his arms.
As soon as he landed, a strong medicinal fragrance hit him in the face, mixed with the unique cold and hot breath of the Yin-Yang Eyes of Ice and Fire, which lifted his spirits.
Xue Tianxing squatted down, carefully opened the pharmacopoeia, and began to identify the magical herb in front of him.
"This is the Wonderful Chrysanthemum, which can enhance soul power and strengthen the body... This is the Longing Dew, which can enhance mental strength... This is the Heartbroken Red of Lovesickness, which requires the blood of one's true heart to pluck..."
Every time he recognized a magical herb, Xue Tianxing couldn't help but feel overjoyed - these treasures, which he had only heard of in the original book, were now right in front of him, ready for him to choose.
After identifying for a while, Xue Tianxing finally arrived at the spring of the Yin-Yang Eye of Ice and Fire. On the left side of the spring, there was a fiery red plant with leaves curled like flames and a gorgeous red flower on the top. It was the Fiery Apricot. On the right side of the spring, there was an ice-blue plant with crystal clear leaves, as if carved from ice, emitting a biting chill. It was the Eight-Angled Mysterious Ice Grass.
Xue Tianxing stared at the two magical herbs, a hint of determination flashing in his eyes - in the original novel, Tang San took these two magical herbs and then used the power of the Yin-Yang Eyes of Ice and Fire to temper his body, thus gaining a strong physique that was immune to water and fire.
With the ultimate ice of the Ice Phoenix spirit and the fire attribute of the six-winged angel as a foundation, perhaps he could withstand the medicinal effects of the two herbs better than Tang San!
Then Xue Tianxing no longer hesitated, and carefully picked the Fiery Apricot and the Eight-Angled Mysterious Ice Grass. Without any hesitation, he put the two magical herbs into his mouth at the same time.
The magic grass melted in his mouth, and a force as hot as magma and a force as cold as ice instantly erupted in his body. The two forces collided wildly in his meridians, as if to tear his body apart.
Xue Tianxing endured the severe pain and jumped into the spring water of the Yin-Yang Eye of Ice and Fire.
As soon as he entered the water, the cold and hot power of the spring water flowed into his body through his pores - the burning heat in the red area echoed with the medicinal power of the Fiery Apricot, and the bitter cold in the blue area blended with the medicinal power of the Eight-Angled Mysterious Ice Grass.
The four forces intertwined and collided in his body, but under the guidance of the Ice Phoenix and Seraph Martial Spirit, they gradually formed a wonderful balance.
