Douluo: Wuhun Eats Iron Beast, Never Become a Slave

Chapter 139 The Yin-Yang Well of Ice and Fire Instantly Turns into a Kindergarten, Heavenly Tribulation

Sunset Forest.

Eyes of ice and fire.

Every time Zhao Mu returned to the Ice and Fire Yin-Yang Well after going out, he felt like he was coming home.

Since leaving the remote mountain village of the Mighty Vajra Bear Zhao family, the Ice and Fire Yin-Yang Well has become the place where Zhao Mu has spent the most time.

Humans are emotional beings; over time, feelings will naturally develop.

"Second brother, are you really going to try?" On the way, after learning about Zhao Mu's so-called 100,000-year soul beast training plan, even Dugu Bo, who had developed some shock resistance from Zhao Mu's training, couldn't help but be shocked once again.

A 100,000-year-old soul beast—how many are there in the entire soul master world?

Good heavens, Zhao Mu is actually telling me that he wants to personally raise a 100,000-year-old soul beast?

Regardless of whether it will work or not, the idea itself was enough to open Dugu Bo's eyes.

“Brother, as you saw, in the Blue Silver Grass Forest, I only spent a dozen minutes to help the Blue Silver King and other plants increase their cultivation by several decades. Moreover, Black and White have also promoted the growth of immortal herbs, so why can’t I promote the growth of immortal herbs here and make them reach the age of 100,000 years!”

Dugu Bo admitted that he couldn't win an argument with Zhao Mu. Now, all he could do was not interfere or obstruct Zhao Mu and just quietly watch his performance.

After adjusting himself to his best condition, Zhao Mu immediately summoned his spirit ring.

Among the various colored spirit rings, the sixth spirit ring once again released a noble tri-colored light. In an instant, the Wood Emperor Domain spread outwards from Zhao Mu as the center, until it covered the entire Ice and Fire Yin-Yang Eye.

After the Wood Emperor Domain covered the entire Ice and Fire Yin-Yang Well, Zhao Mu's next step was to activate his soul power, slowly and carefully applying it to every immortal herb within the domain.

The gentle soul power felt like the large hands of a mother—no, like the hands of a father—gently caressing each fairy herb doll.

Nourished by Zhao Mu's soul power, each immortal herb, just like the Blue Silver Grass before, emitted an unruly joy.

In the midst of joy, each of the immortal herbs slowly grew taller and stronger, brimming with vitality.

Gradually, Zhao Mu was able to feel the emotions conveyed by the immortal herb more and more clearly, and it was an unprecedented joy.

As children, we always wish we could grow up quickly, but once we grow up, we can't help but miss our childhood.

Currently, it seems that the same applies to the herb *Immortal Herb*.

The fairy herb was naturally very happy about its rapid growth.

However, limited by Zhao Mu's soul power reserves, he could only maintain the growth of all the immortal herbs in the Ice and Fire Yin-Yang Well for half an hour before his soul power was completely exhausted.

Immortal Grass is different from Blue Silver Grass. Blue Silver Grass is cheap and easy to grow, but Immortal Grass requires far more energy to grow.

So even after consuming all his soul power and maintaining it for half an hour, Zhao Mu only increased the cultivation level of all the immortal herbs by less than a hundred years.

Considering the time it takes to recover his soul power, Zhao Mu can only use this technique once a day. If he wants to cultivate these immortal herbs to the level of 100,000 years, it will take at least three or four months.

For Zhao Mu, who is now somewhat anxious, this time is a bit long.
After careful consideration, Zhao Mu felt that perhaps he could only stimulate the growth of a portion of the immortal herbs, which would be much more efficient, and even a 100,000-year-old soul beast wouldn't need that many.

So let's raise them in batches!

The next day.

After resting for a day and recovering his condition, Zhao Mu began the second induction process.

Repeating the operation from the previous day, except this time Zhao Mu only selected a quarter of the immortal herbs.

As their own soul power was completely exhausted and the number of immortal herbs decreased, the resulting growth-promoting effect was indeed quite good, increasing the lifespan of these immortal herbs by two to three hundred years.

"I feel there are still a lot of them."

Feeling the growth of the immortal herbs, Zhao Mu murmured softly before immediately beginning to recover his soul power.

On the third day, Zhao Mu reduced the amount of immortal herbs again.

As the number dwindled day by day, only a dozen or so immortal herbs remained to be nurtured by Zhao Mu. Under Zhao Mu's guidance, these dozen or so immortal herbs grew at an astonishing rate.

In just over half a month, all of the dozen or so immortal herbs were approaching the 100,000-year level.

Boom~
This day.

Zhao Mu was using his sixth soul skill to continue nurturing the immortal herb when a booming sound disrupted his thoughts.

The sky above the Ice and Fire Yin-Yang Eye, which had been clear and sunny, was now covered with strange, thick clouds. Various colored lightning bolts flashed and raged among the thick black clouds, followed by muffled thunderclaps.

As time went by, the scene in the sky became increasingly terrifying. The dark clouds grew heavier and thicker, the lightning became longer and brighter, and the thunder became more frequent and louder, as if it were a natural disaster.

Such a commotion naturally startled Dugu Bo.

Looking at the terrifying scene in the sky, Zhao Mu and Dugu Bo couldn't help but recall the strange celestial phenomena that occurred when the Jade Phosphorous Serpent Emperor's martial soul transformed into a dragon.

It seems somewhat similar to the present.

Moreover, the thunder and lightning in the sky seemed to be specifically targeting the Yin-Yang Well of Ice and Fire.

Could it be.
Suddenly, Zhao Mu looked at the immortal herbs in the Yin-Yang Well of Ice and Fire, or more precisely, the dozen or so immortal herbs that he had nurtured and whose cultivation was close to 100,000 years old.

A certain possibility suddenly popped into my head.

When a soul beast reaches 100,000 years of cultivation, it will attract a heavenly tribulation. Every 100,000 years of further cultivation will trigger another heavenly tribulation, until it reaches one million years and becomes a deity. (The heavenly tribulation setting is taken from Douluo Continent II and Douluo Continent III.)
Faced with the heavenly tribulation, the dozen or so immortal herbs that Zhao Mu had nurtured did indeed seem frightened, their branches and leaves curling up and trembling.

"Dad, help!"

"Daddy, I'm scared, boohoo~"

"Daddy, I don't want to be struck by lightning!"

Under Zhao Mu's encouragement, the dozen or so immortal herbs with cultivation levels approaching 100,000 years naturally developed sentience. After all, the Blue Silver King had developed sentience after 85,000 years, so how could the immortal herbs be inferior to it?

A dozen or so children's voices chattered in my mind, undoubtedly all of them fearing the heavenly tribulation.

At that moment, a different voice suddenly rang out from among the children's voices.

"I'm not afraid of thunder and lightning, Dad! Charge! Go!"

How can one withstand the heavenly tribulation?
Just as Zhao Mu was trying to figure out which brat had turned on him, he discovered that once that voice took the lead, other voices followed suit.

"Dad, charge!"

"Dad, let's go!"

"Father, charge forward and confront the Heavenly Tribulation!"

"Dad, we're cheering you on!"

Unable to find the culprit, Zhao Mu, who was thrust into the spotlight, could only helplessly say, "I can't do it, let your bear dad do it!"

As he spoke, Zhao Mu summoned Hei Bai, who was specifically tasked with taking the fall.

Back then, Zhao Mu was only a Soul Master at level 40, and Hei Bai was able to withstand the heavenly lightning of Dugu Bo's Martial Soul evolution. Now that Zhao Mu has reached level 70 Quasi-Soul Saint, Hei Bai, with several hundred thousand-year soul rings and soul bones, has already increased in strength several times over. Withstanding a heavenly tribulation, no, it should be more like withstanding a dozen heavenly tribulations, right?
Black and White winked and took a step forward. Although he didn't want to take the blame, he couldn't bear to refuse the dozen or so chattering fairy herb dolls.

Oh well, consider it paying back the debt I incurred from eating some of their fellow countrymen back then~
"roar~"

With a deafening roar, Black and White transformed, instantly growing to a height of ten meters. Their massive, black and white bodies protected the dozen or so immortal herbs beneath them.

Boom~
Seemingly sensing Black and White's provocative actions, the thunder in the sky intensified, creating a brief standoff with Black and White.

Thunder flashed and lightning struck; the scene was breathtaking.
