Chapter 20: Immortal Herbs
"If Senior Dugu wanted to harm me, you wouldn't need a poisoned pill; you could probably just pinch me to death."
Although Dugu Bo was only the weakest Titled Douluo, he was still a Titled Douluo.
For Pei Qing at present, he was an insurmountable mountain.
"It's good you know your place. If you dare to bully Yan Yan again, see how I deal with you."
A hint of a smile appeared in Dugu Bo's eyes, and his rigid expression softened considerably.
Pei Qing shrugged, not saying much, deciding to find an excuse to beat Dugu Yan up when he had the chance.
'Little girl, do you think I wouldn't dare to attack you just because your grandfather warned me? Oh, then you underestimate me too much!'
Stepping into the poisonous mist and following behind Dugu Bo, Pei Qing finally arrived at the valley of the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well.
The scenery within the valley was indeed exactly as described in the original novel: the oval springs formed milky white and crimson pools, merging without encroaching on each other, creating a dual-fish shape similar to a Tai Chi diagram.
This was the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well, a treasure land formed after the demise of the Fire Dragon King and Ice Dragon King, two of the Dragon God's nine sons!
It was also a treasure land that ran through the entire Douluo series, where both Tang San and Huo Yuhao, ten thousand years later, had obtained great opportunities.
Around the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well, it was like a paradise for plants, with one medicinal herb after another, rarely seen in the outside world, growing freely here.
Pei Qing had long memorized the information about the immortal herbs, and seeing those immortal herbs now, his heart couldn't help but tremble.
There were the Octagonal Mysterious Ice Grass, the Infernal Delicate Apricot, the Aromatic Silk Beauty Immortal Product, the Star Luo Holy Pearl, the Origin Energy Immortal Grass, and one immortal herb after another that appeared in the original novel.
Not only immortal herbs that appeared in the original work but also those that had never appeared before.
For example, Pei Qing saw a Nine-Turn Blood Dragon Fruit and a Dragon Scale Fruit.
Both herbs could enhance the dragon bloodline, which would benefit Dugu Bo and Dugu Yan.
Even compared to the Land Dragon Golden Melon, they were equally valuable.
"This is my medicine garden. You can pick any herbs you need. But I must warn you—many herbs here I don't fully understand. Their functions are not entirely known."
"Don't accidentally kill yourself by mistaking their effects."
Dugu Bo naturally knew that the herbs in his medicinal garden were treasures, but he simply didn't know their uses.
He had tried taking these herbs before, but his luck must have been really bad.
He only ate one, and it almost caused the Jade Phosphor Serpent Poison in his body to backflow, nearly causing him to explode and die.
With such an experience, Dugu Bo no longer dared to eat things indiscriminately, fearing that he might accidentally die in this medicinal garden.
"Don't worry, Senior, I have some understanding of these herbs."
"Before seeing these immortal herbs, I only had a seventy percent chance of helping you clear the Jade Phosphor Serpent Poison from your body."
"But with these immortal herbs, I now have a hundred percent certainty of helping you clear the Jade Phosphor Serpent Poison from your body, and even some hope of helping your martial soul evolve again."
Pei Qing instantly activated his martial soul, black and gold wings appeared behind him, gently fluttering, and as black and gold illusory feathers fell, his figure had already appeared in the valley of the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well.
Dugu Bo was startled; he hadn't expected Pei Qing to be so fast.
This Titled Douluo powerhouse was also somewhat surprised at this moment, because the abilities Pei Qing was displaying now were simply too many and too powerful.
Terrifying speed, unimaginable temperature, sacred attribute—if such a martial soul could remain in my Dugu family...
Dugu Bo suddenly felt that it might not be bad if his granddaughter and Pei Qing could achieve a good relationship.
"Yan Yan, let's go down."
Dugu Bo reached out and pulled Dugu Yan, then flew down into the valley.
When he landed in front of Pei Qing, he saw Pei Qing squatting on the ground, looking at the herbs at his feet.
The herb at Pei Qing's feet at this moment was a large pink flower, without leaves, with purple stamens, looking very beautiful; it was precisely the Aromatic Silk Beauty Immortal Herb.
Dugu Bo had some impression of the herb at Pei Qing's feet, but he didn't know its name.
"Senior Dugu, it's truly admirable that you reached the pinnacle of the continent with your poison techniques, but next to this immortal herb, your poison techniques are completely useless."
Pei Qing picked the Aromatic Silk Beauty Immortal Herb and handed it directly to Dugu Bo.
"Kid, you know this herb?"
Dugu Bo frowned, took the Aromatic Silk Beauty Immortal Herb that Pei Qing handed him, and looked at Pei Qing curiously, asking.
"The Aromatic Silk Beauty Immortal Herb, counters all poisons in the world, even your Jade Phosphor Serpent Poison, Senior."
"If you don't believe me, senior, you can try it."
After Pei Qing finished speaking, he re-directed his gaze to the other immortal herbs, first the Star Luo Holy Pearl, which would be useful for him to condense his soul core in the future.
And the Full Moon Wearing Autumn Dew, which can enhance spiritual power. Tang San used it to advance his Purple Demon Eye to the realm of the mustard seed.
Although he didn't have any eye techniques, the Taiyi Breathing Technique inherently had the effect of training spiritual power.
Just as Pei Qing was putting away the immortal herbs he could use, Dugu Bo, refusing to believe, began to test his Jade Phosphor Serpent Poison on the Aromatic Silk Beauty Immortal Herb.
Every time Dugu Bo used his Jade Phosphor Serpent Poison to approach the Aromatic Silk Beauty Immortal Herb, it would be dispersed by a faint purple light.
Dugu Bo's face was pale. He couldn't imagine how much his combat power would be diminished if his opponent pulled out such an immortal herb in battle and his poison became ineffective. Fortunately, this item was now in his hands.
What a stroke of luck, what a stroke of luck!
"Kid, what are you doing?!"
"Come help me detoxify first. After that, you can take whatever herbs you want from here."
Dugu Bo saw Pei Qing continuously picking herbs he didn't recognize on the other side, so he walked over and said.
Pei Qing glanced at the Full Moon Wearing Autumn Dew, nodded, and decided that enhancing his spiritual power could wait; it wouldn't be too late to do it after helping Dugu Bo detoxify.
"Senior's medicinal garden truly contains countless treasures, so now I have three ways to help Senior evolve your martial soul."
Pei Qing walked to the Nine-Turn Blood Dragon Fruit and the Land Dragon Golden Melon, picked them both, and then looked at Dugu Bo as he spoke.
"Besides your true sun fire for detoxification, are the other two methods you mentioned these two herbs in your hand?"
The casual herbs in his medicinal garden were so precious; one could block his venom, and the others could help him remove toxins from his body.
"That's right, besides me using the True Sun Fire to remove the toxins from your bodies, it's these two immortal herbs in my hand."
"Their names are the Land Dragon Golden Melon and the Nine-Turn Blood Dragon Fruit!"
