Douluo Continent: Reborn as Yuhao, they all have ulterior motives.

Chapter 126 The Mad Tang San

As the two of them stepped onto solid ground, a hint of excitement flashed in Tang San's eyes.

Regardless of the circumstances, Yan Shaozhe's performance reassured him that he finally had a chance to obtain the immortal herb!

Without needing Tang San's guidance, Yan Shaozhe, being no fool himself, quickly identified the direction and led Tang San towards the direction where the miasma concentration was increasing, subconsciously giving instructions along the way.

"Tang San, be careful. The visibility here is too low. Although theoretically it is impossible for any soul beast to survive in this poisonous miasma, no one can say for sure if there are special circumstances. Do not stray more than half a meter from me."

Hearing the concern in Yan Shaozhe's tone, Tang San's eyes flickered slightly. After hesitating for a moment, he spoke softly.

"…Teacher, if we confirm that there really are many magical herbs in that place, what should we do?"

"Um?"

Yan Shaozhe paused for a moment, and after a brief pause, he expressed his thoughts.

"Tang San, you're still young, so you might not understand, but even a single one of these is extremely rare."

"It is said that ten thousand years ago, the first generation of Shrek Seven Devils each consumed a magic herb with the help of Tang San's ancestor, which made each of them an unparalleled genius at the time."

"If there really is such a treasure land as you described, where a large number of immortal herbs grow, then of course we will try to bring them all back to Shrek Academy. This stuff might even be able to raise the strength of Shrek Academy to another level."

Unaware that Tang San's gaze had become firm again because of his words, Yan Shaozhe chuckled and patted his shoulder.

"Don't worry, as your teacher, I will help you obtain sufficient benefits before bringing the immortal herb back to the academy."

"...I understand, teacher."

The little incident passed quickly, and not long after, Yan Shaozhe suddenly stopped in his tracks as if he had seen something terrifying.

"Stop!"

After pulling Tang San to a stop, Yan Shaozhe looked at the emerald green poisonous fog in the distance with some suspicion.

Although he couldn't discern the source, the faint sense of unease told him that even with his cultivation level, he wouldn't fare well if he became tainted.

After a brief hesitation, and without the spirit rings beneath him lighting up, a golden phoenix phantom appeared behind him.

With a loud phoenix cry, golden flames spewed from the phoenix's mouth, spreading towards the poisonous mist not far away.

Although it couldn't compare to the Fire Phoenix, the temperature of its flames wasn't much lower. Under that terrifyingly high temperature, a large area of ​​the emerald green poisonous mist was immediately dispersed.

But what happened next made Yan Shaozhe's expression turn serious. After the flames dissipated, the surrounding poisonous mist seemed to come alive and quickly surged and merged, filling the gap that had just been there.

Judging from their restless appearance, if they weren't wary of his strength, the poisonous fog would probably have already spread towards him.

Seeing this, how could he not be wary?

Before coming, he was full of confidence. After all, the Sunset Forest didn't even have any 100,000-year-old soul beasts. Even if there were some unknown treasures, he could walk around with ease with his Super Douluo cultivation.

But having first witnessed the miasma that made it impossible for soul beasts to survive, and now with the poisonous fog that even he found unsettling, he began to worry that something even more powerful might be lurking behind the poisonous fog.

Of course, despite his apprehension, he wouldn't back down because of the poisonous fog before him; it's just that the things he's encountered along the way have been far beyond his expectations.

If things continue to go deeper, things may very well get out of his control, and no one can say for sure what might happen.

...Should we go back and call someone?

However, Tang San had finally made the trip, and this round trip would take another ten days. He really didn't want to see his disciple tormented by the neurotoxin.

After thinking for a moment, Yan Shaozhe took a deep breath, looked at Tang San, and said in a deep voice.

"Tang San, I'm not exaggerating, but the current situation is already beyond my expectations. If we encounter any danger next, I might not be able to take care of you."

"I will send you out of the miasma and then come back here to find the immortal herbs you need. Wait for me outside for two days. If I don't come out, go back to Shrek Academy for help."

"?"

Tang San's expression froze for a moment.

Although he was touched, who would give him the missing immortal herb?

Unlike Yan Shaozhe, who knew nothing, he knew that the immortal herbs in the Ice and Fire Yin-Yang Well would abide by the rules he set.

It can be said that as long as he behaves well after entering and demonstrates the Tang Clan's unique skills, he will definitely be one of the Seven Immortal Herbs.

What can this old man bring out if he goes in alone?

It's already a miracle they didn't die there.

In fact, if we compare the cultivation levels of soul beasts and soul masters, a titled Douluo is actually equivalent to a 100,000-year-old soul beast.

However, because soul beasts are generally stronger than soul masters, and due to various other factors, it often takes a Super Douluo to reliably kill a 100,000-year-old soul beast.

It seems that even if Yan Shaozhe, who is at level 95, faces those 100,000-year-old immortal herbs, he will not be in much danger. However, those immortal herbs can mobilize the lake water of the Ice and Fire Yin-Yang Well.

He was undoubtedly the one who knew best just how terrifying this thing was. In his previous life, he had used it to deal with the Demon Orca King, who had cultivated for 200,000 years, and the Demigod-level Deep Sea Demon Whale King.

Both of them were struggling to hold on, so how could Yan Shaozhe, whose physical strength was inferior to that of a soul beast, possibly withstand it?

Add to that the immortal herbs with cultivation levels exceeding 100,000 years, and Yan Shaozhe had no chance of surviving.

"Teacher, please let me go with you."

Thinking of this, Tang San quickly spoke up to stop him.

"My father once told me how to identify the magic herb when I was a child. There are probably many kinds of magic herbs inside. It will be easier for me to identify which kind of magic herb can remove the neurotoxins from my body if I go in with you."

".All right."

Seemingly persuaded by Tang San's words, Yan Shaozhe nodded slightly.

"Once inside, follow my instructions completely. Once we get the suitable herb, we'll leave immediately. We'll make further plans when we get back to Shrek Academy, understand?"

"Yes."

After Yan Shaozhe tucked Tang San under his arm, his soul power surged, forming a soul power barrier out of thin air, and then his wings on his back suddenly shook.

The speed exploded beyond imagination. Tang San only felt a blur before his eyes. When he came to his senses, Yan Shaozhe had already led him into the emerald green poisonous fog.

As the poisonous fog eroded his barrier, Yan Shaozhe's expression remained unchanged, but his speed increased again. The plants that were vaguely visible in the poisonous fog began to retreat rapidly to both sides of his field of vision.

Looking at the Seven Absolute Jade Flowers that he had personally planted, Tang San felt a mix of emotions.

If he had known this would happen, he would have planted something else.

Speaking of which, it seems that Huo Yuhao also knows the location of the Ice and Fire Yin-Yang Well, right?

With an ultimate ice martial soul that is immune to all poisons, could the other party have already entered before him?

A sudden thought arose in Tang San's mind, causing his body to stiffen abruptly, and a bad premonition immediately spread.

As if sensing that something was wrong with him, Yan Shaozhe's somewhat solemn voice rang out.

"Tang San, what's wrong?"

"Teacher, I'm fine. I just suddenly thought of some things."

As he said this, Tang San's heart sank.

If things are really as he thinks, then Huo Yuhao has likely already taken seven immortal herbs from the Ice and Fire Yin-Yang Well.

He went there to pick up what other people had left over.

Putting everything else aside, the other side will definitely not let go of the Eight-Cornered Ice Grass and the Autumn Dew.

This means that his idea of ​​undergoing the Ice and Fire Refinement Body again has been completely shattered, and his Purple Demon Eyes cannot advance.

As for the Fragrant Silk Immortal Item, he wasn't sure if Huo Yuhao would take it, but he figured it was unlikely.

Leaving aside whether the Fragrant Qiluo Immortal Herb, which already possesses sentience, would agree to leave with Huo Yuhao, given its importance in the Ice and Fire Yin-Yang Well, even if it wanted to leave, the other immortal herbs would not agree.

With this thought in mind, Tang San felt a little more at ease.

Although he couldn't refine his body with ice and fire, he still had other things to take.

I wonder if the Acacia Heartbreak Red has been taken. If it hasn't, then I can absorb it this time.

Suddenly, as if sensing that he was about to break through the poisonous fog, Tang San subconsciously looked up ahead.

As the vibrant green that had filled my vision vanished in a flash, a sense of sudden enlightenment welled up within me.

Looking at what seemed like a completely new world, Tang San suddenly froze in place.

The light of hope that had been in his eyes quickly died out, leaving only a lifeless emptiness, just like the desolate Yin-Yang Eye of Ice and Fire before him.

Apart from the two-colored lake that resembles a jewel and the lingering traces of life in the air, there were no other magical herbs.

"What a great place!"

After putting Tang San down, Yan Shaozhe subconsciously took a deep breath of the refreshing air and looked around with a sigh.

But as he looked at it, he realized something was wrong.

"Why does it feel like someone's been here before? Where's the herb?"

"Someone beat me to it."

An unprecedented look of resentment filled Tang San's eyes. Even though his arms were trembling violently due to the neurotoxin, Tang San showed no intention of loosening his fist.

Without even thinking, he already guessed who had done these things.

Besides Huo Yuhao, who was reborn like him, who else could come here at this time?

He never expected that this guy would be so ruthless, leaving him not a single drop of soup.

Oh no.

I left some soup base.

"You beat them to it?"

Yan Shaozhe's expression changed, and he subconsciously glanced around again.

Although he felt a little regretful, he quickly composed himself because he hadn't seen the immortal herbs Tang San had mentioned and didn't know their value.

"So what do we do now? Why don't you look into whether there's anything that can treat the neurotoxins in your body?"

Hearing Yan Shaozhe's words, Tang San suppressed his killing intent and began to look around at everything.

After a brief moment of thought, he set off for a spot by the lake. After observing the area with his Purple Demon Eye, he began to dig.

Seeing Tang San start hoeing the ground at the drop of a hat, Yan Shaozhe was completely bewildered. After hesitating for a moment, he decided not to disturb him.

Soon, a look of joy flashed in Tang San's eyes. After digging a dozen times quickly, a root emitting a faint coolness appeared in his palm.

Treating it like a precious treasure, Tang San placed it aside and continued digging without pausing.

After making a harvest, he increased his digging speed even more. Two hours later, after confirming that there were no more roots, Tang San stopped.

Yan Shaozhe, who was standing to the side, was already dumbfounded.

What kind of shock did my disciple suffer?

Eating vegetable roots like a refugee!?

Before he could speak, Tang San followed suit and arrived near the red spring that was radiating scorching heat, and began digging again.

However, before starting the digging this time, Tang San took out a few bottles and handed them to him.

"Teacher, could you please fill these bottles with some lake water? I need to use this to fight poison with poison."

This was the method Tang San came up with. Neurotoxins were like a bone-deep infection, impossible to remove by conventional means. So, they would remove them by injecting the spring water from the Ice and Fire Yin-Yang Well.

With the help of these roots that still retain some medicinal properties, his body should be able to withstand the erosion of the lake water for a short period of time, thereby achieving the purpose of removing neurotoxins.

Of course, this method can only be used on the shoulders and arms.

As for that particular spot, we'll just have to let him suffer like this for now.
