In the valley filled with spiritual energy, the sound of "rustling" occasionally echoed.
Luo Yu was bent over, carefully examining two immortal herbs, a look of confusion furrowing his handsome brow.
One of the immortal herbs had a cap-like top, resembling a Lingzhi mushroom. It was entirely purple, but with jade-like stems. Nine translucent leaves, brimming with vitality, seemed to have wisps of immortal mist swirling around them.
Recalling from his memory, Luo Yu recognized this as the Nine-Petal Purple Immortal Herb, the herb that allowed Yu Xiaogang to overcome his martial soul limitations. But what was that next to it?
Beside it grew another nine-leaf Lingzhi, but its nine leaves were blood-red. The translucent, blood-red leaves were like precious jade and agate, but they exuded an incredibly sinister aura.
Even with the protection of the Aromatic Silk Beauty, Luo Yu felt his body inexplicably agitated.
Luo Yu thought for a moment, then with a wave of his hand, the dark golden Power of the Night quickly condensed into a thin, sharp blade. The blade moved like a dragon, and both immortal herbs were already in his bag.
Looking into the pouch, the harvest was truly impressive. The mature immortal herbs nurtured by the Ice and Fire Yin-Yang Well for thousands of years were all within.
Golden, glistening tulips exuded a regal and luxurious aura, their roots and stems resembling a curtain of vines.
A crimson, trembling immortal herb with leaves gathered like a rooster's comb.
A snow-white, eight-petaled orchid, radiating a refined and elegant aura, its petals crystal-clear like pearls.
A large chrysanthemum, surrounded by a gorgeous and noble purple, with golden light radiating from the tips of its stamens.
Of the dozen or so immortal herbs, the one that Lo Yu cherished most was a nearly indistinguishable, milky-white, transparent immortal herb lying at the center of the wish-fulfilling treasure pouch. Faint wisps of wind swirled around it.
Lo Yu pondered, "It seems Tang San's Tang Sect secret manual still has its limitations. Not only did it fail to recognize the Shadowless Windchaser Grass, but it also revealed many treasures."
After tossing the Lovesick Heartbreak Red, still attached to the dark stone, into the treasure pouch, Lo Yu quickly arrived at the Ice and Fire Yin-Yang Well, where the center was filled with churning, hot steam, and the red and white pools on either side were clearly distinct, like mirrors.
Seeing that it was getting late, Luo Yu held his breath, his eyes like lightning. He raised his hand, summoning the Power of the Night to condense two dark golden large hands, which reached towards the center points of the Extreme Cold Ice Spring and the Blazing Hot Yang Spring respectively.
At the center of the Extreme Cold Ice Spring stood a white Octagonal Mysterious Ice Grass, its flower core like transparent ice crystals, without any fragrance leaking out. The extreme cold aura it emitted even caused the dark golden hand reaching out to it to inexplicably condense a layer of frost.
At the center of the Blazing Hot Yang Spring, a fiery red, cabbage-like plant, the Infernal Delicate Apricot, lay at an angle. In contrast to the Octagonal Mysterious Ice Grass, the moment the dark golden hand touched it, a red light bloomed, accompanied by a sizzling sound.
The two plants, with opposing extremes, lost their original cold and hot auras the moment they gathered before Luo Yu, becoming like ordinary plants.
Luo Yu didn't plan to waste time dawdling. Once the Octagonal Mysterious Ice Grass and Infernal Delicate Apricot converged, their auras would counteract each other, losing their original power. But after ten breaths, all their effects would disappear, so these ten seconds were the best time to consume them.
Heh, wanting to take shortcuts and use cheats, how can one not pay a price? Luo Yu's eyes revealed a sharp glint as he reached out and grabbed the two poisonous herbs, swallowing them whole like a date.
Although the two herbs were poisonous, their properties counteracted each other, no longer possessing their previous severity. They melted upon entering the mouth, turning into saliva that went down the throat.
Tsk tsk, these two herbs taste pretty good. Luo Yu only felt his tongue producing saliva, and a refreshing fragrance filled his mouth.
However, after three breaths, Luo Yu's handsome face turned a mix of red and blue, and his body began to tremble violently. Brilliant and strange, yet dangerous, light radiated from him in all directions.
Shaking violently, he threw off his black robe.
"Roar!"
Excruciating, tearing pain surged from every muscle, flowing along his central nervous system and converging on his cerebral cortex. The unbearable pain was no different from when he awakened his martial soul in the cave the last time.
It was just that the last time, the mysterious power had clouded his mind, while this time he could clearly feel the violent erosion on every inch of his skin.
Seeing that he had reached a certain limit, Luo Yu gritted his teeth and endured the intense pain. He stumbled to the edge of the pool, his eyes revealing determination, as if he remembered the hardships of his childhood training.
This time would be the true beginning of his cultivation on the Douluo Continent!
"Plop!"
Luo Yu jumped directly into the intersection of the Extreme Cold Ice Spring and the Blazing Hot Yang Spring.
The moment he entered the well, Luo Yu felt an overwhelming pressure wash over him. The two energies, ice and fire, clashed internally and externally, refining and cleansing his body.
In excruciating pain, Luo Yu cursed inwardly, "Damn it! I said I wanted to live a carefree life on this continent, why am I forcing myself to suffer again?"
Actually, Luo Yu didn't understand himself. He usually thought about how to indulge and live freely, but deep down, he was unwilling to be ordinary, refusing to just exist. He always adhered to his principles and kept his mind on achieving cultivation success.
The red and blue lights in the Ice and Fire Yin-Yang Well alternated and connected. As time passed, the light dimmed, but a surging, peerless Bloodline Power, like a ferocious beast, gushed forth.
"Buzz!"
The Blazing Hot Yang Spring and the Extreme Cold Ice Spring trembled and boiled simultaneously. Luo Yu solemnly closed his eyes, and there was no longer any sign of pain on his face.
His exposed skin emitted a faint golden sheen. Every inch of his muscles was full and rounded, seemingly not very muscular, but the surging blood energy that permeated them was enough to show the unparalleled explosive power within.
"Thump, thump, thump!"
The sound of his heartbeat slowly echoed in the well, then gradually accelerated, as if a strong warrior was beating a drum.
"Crack!"
The sound reached a new high, as if his body had crossed a chasm and undergone a deep leap. A surge of powerful energy erupted from Luo Yu, instantly exploding the water's surface. The water splashed everywhere, scattering onto the shore with a sizzling sound.
The Poison Douluo lay motionless in the distance, like a corpse, undisturbed by any of the commotion. The effectiveness of the Soul-Suppressing Hammer was evident.
As Luo Yu finished his breakthrough and was about to leave the water, he saw the Sun and Moon Universe appear simultaneously in his left and right hands. A mysterious pull suddenly emanated, and the Blazing Hot Yang Spring and the Extreme Cold Ice Spring seemed to be summoned, flowing towards Luo Yu's body like swallows returning to their nests.
The mirror-like tranquility of the pool was broken. Two enormous swirling vortexes suddenly appeared, and at the center of the red and blue tornadoes was Luo Yu. His left palm seemed like a blazing sun about to burst forth, while a crescent moon faintly appeared in his right hand. The entire Ice and Fire Yin-Yang Well was boiling.
"I'm..."
Luo Yu just wanted to curse.
His original intention was to wait until his body had completely digested the power of the two ice and fire attribute immortal herbs, and after completely obtaining water and fire immunity, he would gradually test the release of his spirit.
He hadn't expected that the original power of these two spirits would go berserk after being triggered by the external environment.
In the single second that Luo Yu was stunned, the Ice and Fire Yin-Yang Well, which had been brewing for countless years, poured a tiny bit of its power into his body. His entire body swelled, and red and blue light danced around him.
