Douluo Dragon King: I am the Lord of the Abyss, the King of Eternal Night.

Chapter 386 The Dragon Soul of the Water and Fire Dragon King, the Arrogance of the Immortal Herbs!
"Bad news has come from the Yin-Yang Well of Ice and Fire?"

Upon hearing this, Jiang Xiu frowned slightly and asked, "Senior Brother, could it be that Uncle Hu has encountered some problem?"

After the last time with the Star Luo Empire, Hu Jie told him that he had gone to the Ice and Fire Yin-Yang Well to bring back some local specialties for them, so the only one who got into trouble was Hu Jie.

“It’s impossible that Uncle Hu had an accident, no, it’s impossible that Uncle Hu didn’t have an accident… Hey! That’s not right either.” Aruheng hurriedly mumbled a couple of sentences.

Hearing the tongue-twister-like voice coming from the other end of the communication soul tool, Jiang Xiu paused for a moment. Perhaps his senior brother had gone too far in his brain while training his body?

Jiang Xiu then comforted him, "Senior Brother, I know you're in a hurry, but don't rush, speak slowly."

After calming down a bit, Aruheng said, "Junior Brother, Uncle Hu is fine, but he just called me and said that the amount of spiritual herbs he provides us will be halved for the time being!"

Upon hearing this, Jiang Xiu instantly understood why his senior brother was in such a hurry.

His senior brother's Nine Dragons Elixir is currently thriving, and reducing the amount of spiritual medicine by half can be said to have stifled his senior brother's body tempering at the source.

Then, Aruheng continued, "And Uncle Hu told me that we can't go to the Ice and Fire Yin-Yang Well to obtain the immortal herbs for the time being!"

"Hmm?" Jiang Xiu's eyes darkened. It seemed that Uncle Hu's experience at the Ice and Fire Yin-Yang Well was not pleasant.

"Did Uncle Hu say why?" Jiang Xiu asked softly.

“No, my uncle said we should wait until our master comes out of seclusion before discussing it, so we can’t go now,” Aruheng said with a sigh.

"Senior Brother, I'm going back to the sect now. We can talk about it when we meet," Jiang Xiu said after a moment's thought.

"Okay!" came Aruheng's voice.

Before Mu Ye went into seclusion, he told Aruheng that if he was in a dilemma, he should consult his junior brother. So, as soon as Hu Jie sent the message, he quickly called Jiang Xiu.

As soon as Aruheng finished speaking, Jiang Xiu hung up the communication device.

"Given Uncle Hu's cultivation level of a level 98 Super Douluo, coupled with his three-word battle armor, he shouldn't have suffered a setback at the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well..."

Jiang Xiu's eyes were filled with thought. The strongest fighting force within the Ice and Fire Yin-Yang Eye was those six ferocious beast-level immortal herbs, and among the six, there were immortal herbs that were not good at fighting. Why would his martial uncle suddenly send such a communication...?

"Could it be the dragon soul of the Water and Fire Dragon Kings...?"

A sharp glint suddenly flashed in Jiang Xiu's purple eyes, as if he had thought of something, and his gaze suddenly deepened.

……

Half an hour ago.

The sunset forest, the eyes of ice and fire.

"This place truly lives up to its reputation as a treasure trove for plant-type soul beasts. Not only does it gather the soul power of heaven and earth, but a plant-type soul beast can cultivate here for one year and achieve the same results as cultivating outside for ten years."

With his belly protruding, Hu Jie leisurely stepped into the Ice and Fire Yin-Yang Eye, marveling at the strange scenery around him.

As she passed by the cluster of exquisite medicinal herbs, her little hand trembled slightly, then she skillfully slung a well-aged medicinal herb over her back and pocketed it.

The entire set of movements was as smooth as flowing water, without the slightest hesitation.

The flowers are in full bloom; if he doesn't pick them soon, he'll seem like he has no taste for romance...

"Hmph! People of the Tang Clan, what brings you here again?"

Just then, a cold snort rang out, and then the surrounding mist dispersed, revealing the clear waters of the Ice and Fire Lake.

Immediately afterwards, six figures materialized from the lakeside closest to the water, with the leader being Qiluo Tulip, dressed in a purple robe.

“Brother Luo, I was appointed to protect the Ice and Fire Yin-Yang Well here, so it’s natural for me to come and patrol it once a week.” Despite Qi Luo Tulip’s cold demeanor, Hu Jie remained unperturbed and spoke calmly.

"Besides, wasn't the Ice and Fire Yin-Yang Well invaded by thieves last time?"

"This..." Mo Yu Shen Zhu paused slightly, realizing that this made sense.

Seeing this, Hu Jie's face showed a look of resolute emotion, and he said with a dignified air:
"I was appointed by the Tang Clan, and now the safety of thousands upon thousands of spiritual herbs in the Ice and Fire Yin-Yang Well rests on my shoulders. How can I slack off!"

"That being said, you've already annoyed us, so you Tang Clan members are not allowed to enter the Ice and Fire Yin-Yang Well. Just stay on the outside and protect it."

At this moment, the hot-tempered Liehuo Xingjiao ignored all of this and directly hugged and scolded.

“Jiaojiao is right. Our Ice and Fire Yin-Yang Eyes aren’t raided every day, so you don’t need to come every day, Hall Master Hu,” Qiluo Tulip chimed in.

He felt that Hu Jie's protection of them was fake, but his dirty hands were real...

"Oh? Is that what you all think?" Hu Jie raised an eyebrow slightly and asked seriously.

"Of course!" Lie Huoxing replied without hesitation.

“But the seniors of the Tang Clan had already discussed this with you all. The Tang Clan would provide protection, and you would provide resources to the Tang Clan,” Hu Jie said pointedly.

"Hmph! Our Ice and Fire Yin-Yang Eye has six ferocious beasts with us, why would we need the protection of your Tang Sect? If we hadn't been careless last time, that person would never have escaped!" Lie Huo Xing Jiao Shu snorted coldly, looking at Qi Luo Tu Hua beside her, "Qi Luo, don't you think so?"

"Ahem, that's right. Last time I only lost by a small margin." Kira Tulip recalled her last battle with Makino and replied without batting an eye.

"Gentlemen, you may not know this, but there are quite a few powerful humans outside. In a time when soul beasts on the continent are almost extinct, the Ice and Fire Yin-Yang Well is still intact. How can you say that it doesn't need the protection of the Tang Sect?"

Looking at these aloof and arrogant medicinal herbs, Hu Jie spoke calmly.

Although the Tang Clan engages in fierce battles for profit by trading weapons and ammunition with outsiders, they take special care of these rare herbs.

However, these immortal herbs were always so arrogant, and they would hand over some spiritual herbs as if they were charity each time. Although he was in the Tang Sect, his heart was still with his original body, but he was still somewhat displeased.

After all, this wasn't the first or second time he'd been humiliated by these immortal herbs.

Of course, he didn't care about the relationship between the Tang Sect and these immortal herbs; he just wanted to take as many of the rich resources as possible with him when he withdrew from the Tang Sect.

"Master Hu, you really don't think we haven't had any protective measures all these years, do you? Perhaps the Tang Clan's current protection is really not important," said Qiluo Tulip indifferently.

Upon hearing this, Hu Jie's brows furrowed slightly.

"Judging from Master Hu's expression, he seems quite skeptical. Well then, this time I'll show you." Seeing Qi Luo Tulip nod, Lie Huo Xing Jiao Shu gave a sharp shout.

In an instant, six energy fluctuations of different attributes burst forth from the six immortal herbs, converging into a six-colored pillar of light that crashed into the confluence of the ice and fire spring water.

"May the Dragon Lord protect us!"

The six succulent tulips, like precious herbs, all murmured softly.

"Yan!"

The next moment, two majestic dragon roars resounded throughout the heavens and earth. Immediately afterward, the two springs of ice and fire began to churn, and two enormous water columns, one blue and one red, shot up, unleashing a torrent of violent fire and ice elements.

As the lake water splashed down, two majestic dragons coiled above the water, one ice-blue and the other crimson. Their rugged horns were adorned with ancient and supreme crowns, and their bodies were covered with hard dragon scales. Their overwhelming dragon power suppressed everything.

With the appearance of these two giant dragons, all the plants in the Ice and Fire Yin-Yang Eye seemed to come alive. In an instant, the rich life force surged, and thousands of plants began to grow rapidly, with the pressure they generated pressing down on Hu Jie.

"What is this?!" Feeling the pressure, Hu Jie's expression changed instantly, and he mobilized all his soul power, taking two steps back.

Looking at the two majestic dragon souls floating in the air, Hu Jie's eyes showed a trace of shock, "They are actually dragon souls at the level of Limit Douluo Quasi-God!"

The rumors from back then turned out to be true; the Ice and Fire Yin-Yang Eye was indeed formed from the remains of two divine dragons.

And the dragon souls of these two divine dragon skeletons could actually be summoned by these immortal herbs!
"Hmph, you've seen it now, haven't you?" Seeing Hu Jie's cautious expression, Liehuo Xing said arrogantly.

"So, Master Hu, you don't need to come to the Ice and Fire Yin-Yang Well anymore. Otherwise, it would be bad if some friction happened. The Dragon Lord doesn't know you."

Qiluo Tulip's eyes were deep and mysterious, carrying a hidden threat.

"This time, it was I, the hall master, who was reckless," Hu Jie said slowly, his eyes slightly narrowed.
"Since you all possess such means, then let's keep our agreement: the Tang Clan will no longer step into the Ice and Fire Yin-Yang Well."

However, if problems occur within the Ice and Fire Yin-Yang Well, then it will be unrelated to the Tang Sect.

Now that he is alone and weak, he certainly cannot afford to break ties with these immortal herbs. Moreover, it is not yet time for him to leave.

After saying that, Hu Jie stepped out and sped away from the valley.

"As expected, force is sometimes necessary, otherwise these humans wouldn't have given in." Tulip Qiluo said calmly, watching Hu Jie's departing figure.

“Yes, those who greedily pursue immortal herbs all meet their demise!” said a burly man, who was none other than the Earth Dragon Golden Melon.

"Hmph, with the dragon souls of two dragon lords, if we weren't unwilling to leave the Ice and Fire Yin-Yang Well, we could have conquered a territory even in the outside world," said Liehuo Xingjiao arrogantly.

Qiluo Tulip nodded slightly in agreement. The two dragon souls they had summoned were respectively from the Water Dragon King and the Fire Dragon King, the nine sons of the Dragon God.

They are extremely powerful beings throughout the entire plane. As long as the Golden and Silver Dragon Kings are not present, these two dragon souls will be summoned by them and used by them.

If the soul beasts are dying out, how could the bloodline of the Golden and Silver Dragon Kings possibly exist?

"I have a feeling that the Tang Sect members might be trying to fool us. Are humans from the outside world really that strong?"

At this moment, the earth dragon golden melon spoke in a buzzing voice.

"We don't need to worry about the outside world, as long as this place remains uninvaded." Liehuo Xingjiaoshu said nonchalantly, then whispered to Qiluo Tulip, her words carrying a deeper meaning:

"Qiluo, are the true spirits of the two Dragon Lords still strong?"

"The situation is not optimistic. The last vestiges of the two dragon lords' true spirits will probably dissipate soon," said Qiluo Tulip softly.

But upon hearing this, the immortal herbs showed no sadness whatsoever; instead, a hint of excitement flickered in their eyes.

Because once the last trace of the Water and Fire Dragon King's true spirit dissipates, the remaining two powerful dragon souls will be completely under their control!
