Douluo: Legend of the Holy Land

Chapter 37 The Yin-Yang Well of Ice and Fire

Upon hearing this, Dugu Bo was first taken aback, then became even more furious. "You brat, not only are you coveting my residence, but you don't even intend to let me go!"

After a long pause, Dugu Bo, as if he had made up his mind, said, "As long as you can do that thing well, I can give you the Ice and Fire Yin-Yang Well. However, I have never liked being bound by rules, and besides, I have received favors from Prince Xuexing and am now a guest minister of the Heavenly Dou Empire. I cannot agree to the second condition!"

Dugu Bo's reaction was within Xiao Yu's expectations. Dugu Bo had taken over the Ice and Fire Yin-Yang Well to suppress the poison in his body. Once the poison was cured, the Ice and Fire Yin-Yang Well would lose its effect on him. He didn't recognize the herbs, so even if it occupied the space, he wouldn't dare to eat them.

As for the second point, Xiao Yu never thought it would go so smoothly from the beginning. Just as Dugu Bo said, he was someone who disliked being constrained. In the original story, whether in the Heaven Dou Royal Family or Shrek Academy, he was merely a figurehead. Joining the Tang Sect didn't seem like he was in charge; he was more of a figurehead for Tang San, and perhaps also served as a link between the Tang Sect and the Heaven Dou Empire's royal family. At that time, Qian Renxue had already been exposed, and Xue Xing and Xue Beng, who were in power, had a good relationship with him.

"I, Xiao Yu, am not the kind of person who likes to force others to do things against their will. Since Mr. Dugu is unwilling, then my second condition is null and void."

Xiao Yu smiled slightly. Since there was still plenty of time, he decided to first establish a good relationship with Dugu Bo: "Although Mr. Dugu is unwilling to join my sect, surely I can at least be friends with you?"

Having more friends means having more options, especially since this young man was clearly someone of considerable influence. He immediately nodded: "As long as you can help me and my granddaughter resolve that problem, even though I haven't joined your sect, I, Dugu Bo, will be happy to lend a hand in the future!"

"Alright, Senior Dugu, let's go!" Xiao Yu clapped his hands, signaling Dugu Bo to lead the way.

"Where are we going?"

Dugu Bo didn't react for a moment.

"Of course, we're going to the Ice and Fire Yin-Yang Well!"

Xiao Yu rolled his eyes and said, "Senior Dugu, you wanted me to explain everything here."

"Oh, right, right, right!"

Dugu Bo suddenly realized that he had been using the word "trouble" instead of "poisoning" in his conversation with Xiao Yu, not because he was worried Ye Renxin would reveal it. Ye Renxin had been the clan leader for decades and knew what could and couldn't be said. It was simply that if others knew that the Poison Douluo, a master of poisons, couldn't cure his own poison, he would be laughed at. How could Dugu Bo ever face anyone again?

Dugu Bo immediately turned and flew away.

Xiao Yu then asked Ye Renxin, "Senior Ye, I'm going out with Senior Poison Douluo, and it may be a long time before I return. Please take good care of Zi Long and the others while I'm gone."

"No problem, no problem!"

After learning about Xiao Yu's background, Ye Renxin practically became a sycophant, patting his chest and making a solemn promise.

The speed of a Title Douluo is incredibly fast; it took the group less than ten minutes to reach Sunset Forest from the Nine Heart Begonia Clan's residence.

"Ahead lies my secluded dwelling, the very place where Brother Xiao Yu spoke of the Yin-Yang Well of Ice and Fire."

Just as they were about to reach their destination, Dugu Bo suddenly stopped and slowly descended, and Xiao Yu and the other two landed after him.

As soon as he landed, Dugu Bo took out several pills from his soul tool: "I hate outsiders disturbing me the most, so I set up a poison array around the perimeter for protection. Even soul beasts over ten thousand years old dare not cross this line. These are antidote pills that I have prepared. After taking them, the poison mist will not be able to enter your body for a while."

"There's no need for that!"

Milo stepped forward, glanced at the poisonous mist drifting outside, gathered his soul power, and extended a finger. A beam of red light shot out, and the poison array that Dugu Bo had built based on his natal poison vanished in an instant.

"this..."

Dugu Bo was dumbfounded once again.

"Mr. Dugu, there's no need to be surprised. Milo has some knowledge of poisons; this little bit of poison is no problem for him!"

Scorpions and venomous snakes are among the Five Poisons. Although Milo is not like Dugu Bo, who devotes 90% of his power to using poison, dealing with a poison array is still a piece of cake for him.

Anyway, Dugu Bo had already suffered enough since he saw the letter his granddaughter sent that day, so he didn't say anything more and strode inside.

Led by Dugu Bo, the four climbed up the mountain path and soon reached the summit. What came into view was an inverted cone-shaped valley. The summit where they were was on the edge of the valley. Looking down, thick white fog swirled above the valley, and a pungent smell of sulfur filled their nostrils.

Dugu Bo turned his head and asked, "The Yin-Yang Well of Ice and Fire is right below this mountain valley, Brother Xiao, would you like me to take you down?"

"Thank you for your kindness, Senior Dugu!"

Although Xiao Yu could go down on his own, something Tang San, who had less than level 35 soul power in the original story, could do, he didn't hesitate to do it since Dugu Bo was willing to help.

Dugu Bo flashed and summoned his martial soul, a 30-meter-long, emerald-green snake as thick as a water vat. This was his martial soul, the Azure Phosphorous Serpent Emperor, an evolved form of his family's inherited martial soul, the Azure Phosphorous Serpent, and was known as the Ancestor of Ten Thousand Serpents.

Xiao Yu leaped lightly and landed on top of the snake crown.

"Hold on tight!"

Dugu Bo gave a reminder, then leaped up and sped towards the clouds. His enormous serpentine body rode the void at great speed, quickly breaking through the sea of ​​clouds and landing smoothly on the shallow surface of a basin.

"We've finally arrived at the Yin-Yang Well of Ice and Fire!"

Xiao Yu jumped down from the snake's head and couldn't help but observe the surrounding environment, remarking involuntarily.

The Yin-Yang Well of Ice and Fire is the greatest opportunity for the Shrek Seven Devils, containing countless rare and precious herbs that can transform their bodies. In the original story, the Shrek Seven Devils were able to stand out among their peers, thanks in no small part to the immortal herbs of the Yin-Yang Well of Ice and Fire.

In the very center of the valley is an oval-shaped hot spring, not very large in area. The hot spring is divided into two parts by color: milky white and vermilion. What is even more peculiar is that although they are in the same pool, they are clearly separated and do not encroach on each other, always remaining on their own side.

Between the two hot springs, steam of different colors is constantly generated, rising continuously and rolling up until it slowly dissipates at the mountain pass.

In his previous life, Xiao Yu had only read the original Douluo Continent II novel, but in his spare time, he had read about the formation of the Ice and Fire Yin-Yang Eyes in some posts. It was because the Water Dragon King and the Fire Dragon King, two of the nine great dragon kings of the God Realm, perished and were buried deep in the Sunset Forest, and the Ice and Fire Yin-Yang Eyes came from this, nourishing all things.
