After a day of actual combat, she had a deep understanding that those soul beasts were all extremely ferocious.
On several occasions, if Su Mo hadn't reacted quickly, she might have actually gotten hurt.
Su Mo also picked up a soft-boned rabbit and ate it slowly, but his heart was heavy.
He searched all day but still found no clues.
Sunset Forest is so vast that a day's hiking trip can only explore a tiny fraction of this boundless forest.
If we keep searching like this, we might not find that hidden treasure even in ten days, let alone a day.
I wonder if we'll find anything tomorrow...
Fifteen minutes later.
After finishing their roasted rabbit, the two went into their tent to rest.
With the Golden Crocodile Douluo watching over him from the shadows, Su Mo had no worries about his safety and soon fell into a deep sleep.
……
The next day.
Su Mo woke up early, woke Bibi Dong, ate some dry rations, and then set off again on his journey to find the Yin-Yang Well of Ice and Fire.
Time flies, and it's sunset.
They arrived at an area with steep mountains.
Su Mo paused, her nose twitching slightly.
This aura... seems to be poisonous miasma.
He was startled, but remained outwardly calm and continued walking forward.
After walking for about fifteen minutes, the scenery ahead suddenly changed.
The trees disappeared, replaced by a thick, poisonous miasma, a hazy gray that almost completely obscured all vision.
Su Mo stopped in his tracks. The concentration of this poisonous miasma was so high that even a regular Soul Emperor would probably not dare to venture into it, let alone him and Bibi Dong.
Some low-level Soul Masters would die instantly upon contact!
However, Su Mo was secretly delighted when he looked at the poisonous miasma in front of him.
This level of poisonous miasma is something ordinary soul masters would avoid at all costs, and they would never dare to venture into it.
Only a Soul Master like Dugu Bo, who is skilled in using poison and has a certain level of cultivation, would dare to venture in.
Nine times out of ten, the Yin-Yang Well of Ice and Fire is inside!
“Junior brother, there’s a lot of poisonous miasma ahead.” Bibi Dong frowned. “Let’s take a detour; this place is too dangerous.”
Even a tiny bit of this poisonous miasma can cause serious trouble.
Moreover, the poisonous miasma is blinding, and powerful soul beasts may inhabit it.
Su Mo shook his head slightly. With his and Bibi Dong's current cultivation levels, rushing in would indeed mean certain death.
But there was someone behind them.
“Grandpa Golden Crocodile,” Su Mo suddenly spoke, his voice not loud.
No sooner had they finished speaking than a figure appeared silently beside them.
Golden Crocodile Douluo stood with his hands behind his back, his gaze fixed on the poisonous miasma, his eyebrows slightly raised.
"Xiao Mo, do you want to go in?"
"Yes." Su Mo nodded. "I have a feeling that there might be something special behind this poisonous miasma. Grandpa Golden Crocodile, could you take us in to take a look?"
Golden Crocodile Douluo pondered for a moment, his gaze sweeping over the poisonous miasma, before nodding.
"This poisonous miasma is indeed formidable, but..." he smiled faintly, his tone carrying a hint of arrogance, "it is nothing to worry about for this old man."
Even if a level 98 Super Douluo isn't a poison-attribute Soul Master, with his powerful Soul Power protecting him, this level of poisonous miasma wouldn't be able to get close.
"Let's go, stay close to me."
With a wave of his hand, Golden Crocodile Douluo unleashed a surge of immense soul power, which transformed into a barrier that enveloped Su Mo and Bibi Dong.
The three stepped into the poisonous miasma, where the poisonous fog surged towards them. However, the moment they touched the soul power barrier, they were quietly blocked and could not get any closer.
Visibility was extremely poor in the poisonous miasma, but with Golden Crocodile Douluo leading the way, the three of them moved forward steadily without any hindrance.
Fifteen minutes later, the fog ahead finally began to thin.
After passing through the last layer of poisonous miasma, a mountain peak came into view.
The three quickly reached the summit.
This is a bottomless mountain valley.
Su Mo stood on the mountaintop, her heart pounding faster and faster.
From the bottom of the valley, a faint, pungent smell of sulfur wafted over.
Su Mo's pupils contracted slightly; perhaps the Yin-Yang Eye of Ice and Fire had truly been found.
"Grandpa Golden Crocodile, let's go down and take a look."
"Alright." Golden Crocodile Douluo nodded slightly and took the lead in flying downwards.
"Let's go, Senior Sister." Su Mo turned to look at Bibi Dong, and black and gold sword wings suddenly unfolded behind him.
He bent down and lifted her up in his arms, then with a flap of his wings, he leaped into the ravine.
Bibi Dong wrapped her arms around his neck, gently pressed her face against his chest, feeling his steady and powerful heartbeat, and a blush quietly rose on her cheeks.
The wind howled in her ears, and below her lay an abyss, yet she felt only peace.
A moment later, Su Mo landed, retracted his sword wings, and gently put her down.
Su Mo also failed to notice Bibi Dong's unusual behavior, as the distant scenery completely captivated his attention.
In the distance, there was a hot spring emitting steam, though it wasn't very large.
The water surface was divided in two by an invisible boundary; one side was milky white like solidified fat, and the other side was crimson red like cinnabar, blending together yet clearly distinct.
Around the hot spring, there are many naturally growing exotic flowers and plants.
Su Mo was overjoyed; he had finally found the Yin-Yang Eye of Ice and Fire.
"This place... is so beautiful!" Bibi Dong was immediately captivated by the dreamlike scene before her.
"Senior sister, take a closer look at those flowers and plants."
Bibi Dong was taken aback, then carefully examined the flowers and plants.
"Those are... the Qiluo tulip, the eight-petaled fairy orchid, the cockscomb phoenix sunflower, the narcissus jade skin bone... there are so many fairy herbs!"
Bibi Dong's beautiful eyes widened, and she couldn't help but exclaim in surprise.
Having accompanied Su Mo through the entire illustrated guide to flowers and plants, she naturally recognized these precious herbs.
She had always thought the magical herb was something only in legends, but now it was actually right in front of her, and in such large quantities.
A quick glance revealed no fewer than ten plants!
What is the "immortal herb"?
Golden Crocodile Douluo frowned slightly, his gaze sweeping over the exotic flowers and plants.
As the second elder of the Spirit Hall, he had seen many rare and precious materials, but he had never heard of such a rare herb.
Chapter 26 Medusa, a Celestial Herb
Su Mo explained, "I borrowed a herbal compendium from Bishop Yueguan before, which recorded rare medicinal herbs."
It is said that after being persuaded, one can strengthen one's foundation, cleanse one's marrow, enhance one's cultivation talent, and increase one's soul power.
"Is this really true?" Golden Crocodile Douluo asked in shock.
Cultivation talent is innate and extremely difficult to change later in life. If such a rare item truly exists, it would be an ultimate treasure for defying fate.
Su Mo nodded: "That's what it says in the catalog. And it's a family heirloom, so it should be genuine."
"Then what are we waiting for? Let's go take a look."
Golden Crocodile Douluo had just taken half a step when he suddenly stopped.
"Grandpa Golden Crocodile, what's wrong?" Su Mo also stopped.
"Wait, something's coming." Golden Crocodile Douluo looked up.
Moments later, a huge shadow began to meander down the mountainside.
Gradually, the outline became clearer.
It was a giant serpent with a completely emerald green body, its flat, triangular head held high, constantly flicking its tongue, and its cold, vertical pupils looking down at Su Mo and the other two.
"A Medusa of ten thousand years?" Su Mo frowned slightly.
Medusa, the queen of serpentine spirit beasts, possesses a petrifying ability that strikes fear into the hearts of all.
This kind of poisonous soul beast can survive in poisonous miasma, so it's not surprising that it appeared here.
Perhaps this place is conducive to cultivation, for it has long claimed this place as its territory. It was not here before, so it must have gone out to forage for food.
Su Mo suddenly remembered Dugu Bo's Medusa skull. Could it be that it was the one that exploded out in front of him?
"I'll deal with it first," said Golden Crocodile Douluo calmly.
To him, a ten-thousand-year-old soul beast was nothing more than a large ant.
A golden light flashed, and the phantom of the Golden Crocodile King appeared behind him, with nine soul rings rising from his feet.
When the blood-red, ten-thousand-year-old soul ring appeared, Medusa's vertical pupils suddenly contracted.
Its raised body suddenly twisted, and without any hesitation, it turned and leaped towards the mountain wall at an astonishing speed.
The ten-thousand-year-old soul beast already possessed considerable intelligence, and it clearly sensed that the aura emanating from Golden Crocodile Douluo was extremely terrifying.
However, Golden Crocodile Douluo is even faster.
In the blink of an eye, he appeared behind Medusa.
