Douluo: Wuhun Qimen Formation, control everything!

Zhou Xuan simply looked calmly at the churning poisonous miasma ahead: "Don't worry, just come with me."

Gao Hongyu looked at Zhou Xuan, then at the poisonous miasma in front of him: "You were prepared for this all along."

“I definitely can’t bring you here to your death.” Zhou Xuan smiled and took out a bead from his storage soul tool—the Heart of Qiluo!
Gao Hongyu's nose twitched. Just smelling the fragrance made him feel much of the fatigue from his journey disappear, and his soul power flowed more smoothly.

"This is……"

Before he could finish his question, he saw Zhou Xuan holding the bead and taking a step forward.

A strange scene happened.

The originally churning and aggressive poisonous miasma, the moment Zhou Xuan stepped into its range, seemed to encounter a king, and suddenly retreated, making way for him with a three-foot-wide passage!

Gao Hongyu's eyes widened in shock. It wasn't that he hadn't seen treasures before; as a titled Douluo, he was quite knowledgeable. But this was truly the first time he had ever seen something like this.

"Wow, how much would this fetch if we sold it?!"

"Why are you thinking about money all day long?" Zhou Xuan rolled his eyes. "Stay close to me."

Gao Hongyu snapped out of his daze and quickly followed, walking behind Zhou Xuan.

"Where did you get this? It's so useful!"

"It was a gift from someone else," Zhou Xuan replied casually, without stopping.

Gao Hongyu's lips twitched slightly. A gift?

If he had such a thing, he would never give it to anyone else.

He didn't ask any more questions, but silently followed behind. The two of them strolled leisurely through the poisonous miasma, one in front of the other.

The surrounding poisonous fog grew increasingly dense, and occasionally, one could see some nearly decayed bones on the ground.

After walking for about the time it takes for an incense stick to burn, the view ahead suddenly opened up.

A huge valley appeared before us without warning.

Unlike the poisonous miasma we had just passed through, what lay ahead was simply a fairyland.

The moment Gao Hongyu saw the scene inside the valley, he froze on the spot.

In the very center of the valley, there is a strange spring.

The spring was clearly divided in two. One half was blue, radiating extreme cold, and the surrounding ground was covered with thick frost. The other half was crimson, steaming hot, distorting the air with its heat.

One cold, one hot—two completely opposite extremes exist distinctly within the same spring, forming a bizarre yet magnificent scene.

Around the spring, there grow all sorts of plants of different shapes and sizes, unlike anything ever seen before.

Judging from their aura alone, many of them are plant-type soul beasts that are 100,000 years old.

It's important to know that for a plant-type soul beast to grow to 100,000 years old is a once-in-a-million-year occurrence.

But there are so many in this valley.

"here……"

Moreover, even though he was only at the edge of the valley, he could feel refreshed and his soul power seemed to be circulating faster.

This place is simply the paradise that every Soul Master dreams of!

Zhou Xuan put away the Heart of Qiluo and arrived at the Yin-Yang Well of Ice and Fire, where the air was no longer poisonous.

He walked to Gao Hongyu's side, followed his gaze to the spring where ice and fire met, and calmly uttered four words.

"This is the eye of ice and fire."

Gao Hongyu frowned and thought for a while: "Never heard of it."

"If outsiders find out about this place..." Gao Hongyu muttered to himself, but before he could finish, he shuddered.

He dared not imagine the bloodshed and chaos that would ensue if the news of the Ice and Fire Yin-Yang Well were to leak out.

However, they still need to be able to get in. Without Zhou Xuan leading the way, ordinary titled Douluo definitely wouldn't be able to get into this poisonous miasma outside.

Zhou Xuan patted him on the shoulder, signaling him to come back to his senses.

"Stop looking, it's time to go inside."

Gao Hongyu chuckled dryly and looked away.

He had only taken a few steps when a furious, thunderous voice suddenly boomed throughout the valley without warning!

"Human! You actually dare to come back!"

The sound was like a rolling heat wave, hitting us and making the surrounding air scorching.

Gao Hongyu's expression changed, and he instantly raised his soul power, forming an invisible sword intent that shielded him from the heat wave.

He looked towards the source of the sound and saw a crimson plant, shaped like a dragon ginseng, growing vigorously without wind, emanating a terrifying pressure beside the crimson spring.

Before he could react, another clear, cold voice rang out.

"Human!" The enormous petals of the Qiluo Youxiang Immortal Herb swayed, facing towards Zhou Xuan.

They would never mistake the aura of the Heart of Qiluo.

Gao Hongyu's nerves tightened instantly. He had seen many talking soul beasts in his life, but this was the first time he had ever seen so many plants exuding the aura of 100,000 years.

Zhou Xuan seemed not to have heard the two angry shouts, his expression remained unchanged, and he even had the leisure to survey his surroundings.

Despite how powerful these magical herbs may seem, their combat abilities are actually no match for Gao Hongyu's.

How can a group of flowers grown in a greenhouse compare to a sword forged in blood?

"Humans, get out of here!"

The fiery apricot blossoms, delicate and graceful, let out another delicate shout, the scorching heat causing ripples in the air around them.

"You managed to escape last time, but you dare bring people here again this time? Do you have a death wish?"

In another direction, there was a giant flower, exquisitely fragrant and ethereal, with a clear, cool voice and petals swaying gently.

Gao Hongyu subconsciously took a step forward, blocking Zhou Xuan's path, and pursed his lips.

"I say, you two plants, you've got quite the big mouth."

Although he was smiling, his soul power was already secretly circulating within him, and an invisible sword aura swirled around him, ready to be unsheathed at any moment.

Zhou Xuan looked up at the two immortal herbs beside the Yin-Yang Well of Ice and Fire, his face showing no extra expression.

Last time he came, he wasn't fully prepared and was overwhelmed.

This time, Zhou Xuan brought a bodyguard with him, and he was too lazy to waste words with them.

"I need a piece of blazing glue from the fiery apricot tree."

His voice was soft, and his tone was as flat as if he were saying, "I need a cabbage."

Upon hearing this, the atmosphere in the entire valley instantly plummeted to freezing point.

"What did you say?!"

The fiery apricot tree flew into a rage, its entire plant bursting into a blazing crimson flame. "You're asking for death!"

Although the molten glue is of little use to the object itself, it is like a collectible and is very difficult to solidify!
"boom!"

A thick pillar of fire suddenly shot out from its body without any warning, heading straight for Zhou Xuan's face!
Zhou Xuan sighed and patted Gao Hongyu on the shoulder.

"He taught them to speak first, then vanished in a flash." The group of immortal herbs used their spiritual power to scan the area, but couldn't find where Zhou Xuan had hidden.

Gao Hongyu said helplessly, "You think too highly of me. So many 100,000-year-old soul beasts. Even though they are plant-type, they are still 100,000-year-old soul beasts. Aren't you afraid I'll be defeated?"

"Don't worry, I'll give you extra money. And here's this, you can borrow it for a bit." Zhou Xuan's voice rang in his ears, and then a bright light suddenly appeared in front of Gao Hongyu.

Gao Hongyu grabbed it and found it was something like a bracelet.

"what is this?"

"You'll know once you try it on." Gao Hongyu weighed the metal ring in his hand; it was icy cold to the touch. It was engraved with some intricate patterns that he couldn't understand at all, and an unknown crystal was set in the very center.

"This is it?"

He curled his lip, and with a casual slash of his sword, he shattered the scorching pillar of fire that was rushing towards him. Then he casually slipped the bracelet onto his wrist.

"Om-"

The moment the bracelet touched his skin, a cool current rushed up his arm and into his limbs!
Gao Hongyu's body stiffened for a moment.

He felt a tremendous energy instantly merge with his own soul power.

The speed at which his soul power circulated within his body suddenly increased several times, and his perception of the surrounding space became clearer than ever before.

He even had the illusion that he could tear space apart with a wave of his hand.

Zhou Xuan secretly observed Gao Hongyu's appearance.

One sentence involuntarily popped into my head—You've been enhanced, go for it!
"boom!"

Another pillar of fire was already upon his face.

Gao Hongyu didn't even lift his eyelids, he just waved his hand.

A black sword aura, refined to its fullest extent, burst forth from his fingertips, arriving first despite being delayed, effortlessly meeting the massive pillar of fire.

The sword energy silently cleaved the pillar of fire in two, and the sharp sword intent instantly shredded the pillar of fire. The raging fire pillar dissipated in mid-air, turning into countless sparks and vanishing without a trace.

"A Title Douluo? It seems you were prepared all along!"

In another direction, the enormous petals of the Qiluo Youxiang Fairy Tale swayed violently, clearly unable to comprehend what was happening before its eyes.

Gao Hongyu flexed his wrists, feeling the surging power within him, and the nonchalant expression on his face finally faded somewhat.

“Interesting.” He cracked his neck, making a crisp snapping sound. “This thing is pretty good.”

"Go together!"

Liehuo Xingjiaoshu let out another delicate shout, and the atmosphere in the valley suddenly became tense.

In an instant, several immortal herbs launched their attacks simultaneously, centered on the Yin-Yang Eye of Ice and Fire!

The extreme cold of the Eight-Cornered Ice Grass transformed into ice spikes, piercing through the air.

The pink pollen of the fragrant fairy flower spread, creating a mesmerizing illusion.

The vines of the earth dragon golden gourd emerged from the ground like giant pythons and coiled around Gao Hongyu's legs.

In an instant, various energies intertwined to form a net that enveloped him from all directions, sealing off all his escape routes.

Faced with such a display of force, Gao Hongyu advanced instead of retreating.

"Well done!"

He laughed loudly, leaving a blur in his wake before disappearing completely.

The next moment, a dazzling sword light shone amidst the attack net of the immortal herbs.

"Keng!"

With a flash of sword light, all the ice spikes in the sky shattered in mid-air.

The sword light flashed again, splitting the pink illusionary mist in two. The domineering sword intent directly shattered the spiritual power that constituted the illusion.

Before the vines emerging from the ground could even get close, they were sliced ​​into countless pieces by the invisible sword energy and fell to the ground.

Gao Hongyu moved through the battlefield, wielding his black sword with leisurely ease.

"A bunch of hothouse flowers, they've lived for 100,000 years, and this is all they've got?"

His voice echoed through the valley, carrying an undisguised mockery.

"hateful!"

The Fiery Apricot and the Eight-Cornered Ice Grass exchanged a glance, and the two immortal herbs with completely opposite attributes actually reached a tacit understanding at this moment.

Two streams of energy, one red and one blue, shot into the sky and converged in mid-air, seemingly about to merge!

This is their trump card as a companion immortal item of the Yin-Yang Well of Ice and Fire: the clash of ice and fire is enough to generate devastating power.

However, before that power could fully take shape, a figure appeared like a ghost among them.

It was Gao Hongyu.

The black sword exuded sword intent, and the two immortal herbs felt an extremely sharp aura that instantly pierced through their energy defenses.

The energy they painstakingly accumulated was like a punctured balloon, instantly deflated completely.

Gao Hongyu pressed the tip of his sword against the delicate stamen of the Fiery Apricot blossom and said coldly, "Who else wants to try?"

The valley was completely silent.

All the magical herbs stopped attacking.

"Don't kill him! We'll give you anything you want!"

Gao Hongyu finally fixed his gaze on Lie Huoxing Jiaoshu, grinned, and revealed a set of white teeth.

"Now, can we talk?"

The fiery red apricot plant trembled violently, not from fear, but from humiliation.

The mere touch of Gao Hongyu's sword tip was enough to make it feel a deadly threat.

A fist-sized, viscous, reddish-brown gel-like substance, resembling lava, slowly separated from its main body and floated in mid-air.

Gao Hongyu raised an eyebrow and looked at Zhou Xuan.

Zhou Xuan simply stepped forward, flicked his finger, and a jade box appeared out of thin air, steadily holding the ball of scorching glue inside and isolating it from all heat.

After doing all this, he turned his attention to the Eight-Cornered Ice Grass.

"You should also do your part."

The eight-cornered ice plant was so frightened that it almost pulled its roots out of the ground.

"Too deceiving!"

"Don't go too far!"

Gao Hongyu snorted lightly and casually twirled the black sword in his hand.

"Om-"

An invisible sword cry spread out, and the group of immortal herbs that had been clamoring just moments before instantly fell silent.

Zhou Xuan had already walked up to the Eight-Cornered Ice Grass and reached out his hand.

The Eight-Cornered Ice Grass dared not speak out in anger, and in the end, it humiliatingly condensed a palm-sized ice crystal, the shape of which was exactly the same as its leaves.

Zhou Xuan put it away with satisfaction, but then he didn't stop walking.

He walked toward that exquisite, fragrant plant.

The enormous flower swayed violently, and this time, its voice was filled with obvious terror: "You...you've already taken both ice and fire immortal treasures, what else do you want to do?"

"You just attacked me with an illusion, which caused me some mental damage," Zhou Xuan said seriously. "Therefore, I need your Qiluo Heart to heal my wounds."

Upon hearing this, Gao Hongyu couldn't help but roll his eyes.

You're mentally damaged? You were just watching the whole thing from the sidelines, and didn't even get a scratch!

The fragrant fairy petals of the Qiluo were so angry that they almost curled up, but seeing Gao Hongyu's ambiguous smile, it ultimately dared not retaliate.

"Here you go!" (End of Chapter)
