Douluo Continent: I, an evil soul master, work nine-to-five in the Tang Sect.

Chapter 54 The Yin-Yang Well of Ice and Fire

"Xiao Chen, what do you mean by that?"

Tang Ya naturally understood Luo Chen's personality and knew that he wouldn't speak without reason, so she asked him.

Luo Chen first tossed the two white jade bottles containing the Profound Water Pills to Huo Yuhao, who was standing to the side, before explaining:

"Sect Master, Senior Xu is indeed very sincere. Among the herbs and pills he just gave me, many are of exceptionally high quality and must be quite valuable. I think it's not a bad deal to exchange these herbs and pills for a soul bone."

"Anyway, a piece of inferior soul bone won't do any good, and we don't even know if it can be perfectly fused. We might as well exchange it for these herbs and pills to improve our own strength."

As soon as Luo Chen finished speaking, Huo Yuhao, after receiving the two white jade bottles, realized what was inside and quickly asked Luo Chen:

"Brother Luo, why did you give me both of these Profound Water Pills? This..."

However, before he could finish speaking, Luo Chen interrupted him with a smile:

"Just take them. These two Xuan Shui Pills were originally prepared for you. Otherwise, among the few of us here, who could use Xuan Shui Pills? Their effects of cleansing the marrow and replenishing one's innate constitution are perfect for you."

"Besides, many of the herbs and pills that Senior Xu just gave us can be helpful to us..."

As he spoke, Luo Chen looked at Tang Ya and Bei Bei in front of him again and said:

"Sect Master, Senior Brother, does our Tang Sect have any detailed records regarding herbs and elixirs?"

Luo Chen knew that the Tang Clan had a tradition in this area in the beginning, but he was not sure whether the Tang Clan, which had declined and lost much of its heritage over the past tens of thousands of years, still had any records of herbs and elixirs.

However, after hearing Luo Chen's words, Tang Ya and Bei Bei looked at each other and then shook their heads helplessly.

"It's a pity, Xiao Chen, that the books that recorded many herbs and how to refine pills were lost a long time ago. The Tang Sect has only preserved a few of the most core techniques."

"However, according to the historical records left by the successive leaders of the Tang Clan, there is a place that seems to have belonged to the Tang Clan in the past, which was used to cultivate medicinal herbs and refine pills. It is called the Ice and Fire Yin-Yang Eye. But it is too dangerous there, and I don't know the location of that place."

Tang Ya spoke with a hint of regret in her voice.

If she truly knew of that place, a sacred land of medicinal herbs, where countless immortal herbs were hidden, then the Tang Clan would surely rise again. Unfortunately, it was just a legend, and no one could prove whether such a place actually existed.

Hearing this, Luo Chen nodded, not surprised at all. After all, that place was one of the three great treasure troves of medicine in Douluo Continent, and it was guarded by many ferocious beasts and peerless poisonous herbs. Ordinary people simply couldn't find it or get in.

In addition, the Tang Clan, which was originally part of the sect, had not harvested herbs for thousands of years in order to protect that sacred medicinal land. Therefore, the knowledge of the location of that place and the inheritance of some herbs had long been lost, so it is normal that Tang Ya and Bei Bei did not know about it.

However, this also meant that Luo Chen could no longer study the herbs that Xu Sanshi had given him. Although these herbs were of high quality, they were not immortal herbs and could not be as free of side effects as immortal herbs.

After all, every medicine has its side effects, and Luo Chen dared not give it to himself or Tai An and the others casually. A single mistake could lead to their death, and that was no joke…

However, Luo Chen knew that there was a place that definitely knew the location of the Ice and Fire Yin-Yang Well, but that place was no different from the Ice and Fire Yin-Yang Well. Ordinary people could not find it or enter it. That place was the Haotian Sect, which had been in seclusion since thousands of years ago when the Tang Sect began to decline!

Thinking this, Luo Chen glanced at Wang Dong, who looked somewhat dazed. If they really wanted to find that place, they would have to rely on the power of the Haotian Sect. However, Luo Chen was not in a hurry about that.

According to Luo Chen's estimation, the reason why the Haotian Sect chose to go into seclusion thousands of years ago, closing its doors and disappearing from the continent, leaving only some legends, is probably closely related to the Tang Sect!

With its profound foundation, the Haotian Sect is undoubtedly the number one sect on the continent, even on the surface. Even the Nine Treasure Glazed Tile Sect, which still exists today, cannot compare with it.

Why would such a powerful sect choose to disappear without a trace? It's highly likely that it was arranged by someone who deliberately chose to remain hidden during the Tang Sect's heyday to avoid overshadowing it, thus serving as a "backup plan."

Now that the Tang Clan has declined, the role of this "backup plan" has become apparent. It is essentially using the Haotian Sect as an insurance policy to assist the Tang Clan's revival, especially since the Haotian Sect already has a close relationship with the Tang Clan.

Luo Chen is now a respectable and upright protector of the Tang Clan, bearing the heavy responsibility of reviving the Tang Clan. His search for the Ice and Fire Yin-Yang Well is not something shameful; it is inextricably linked to the revival of the Tang Clan!

Therefore, even if Luo Chen were to actually approach the Haotian Sect, he would have every reason to use their power to find the location of the Ice and Fire Yin-Yang Well. However, even if he knew where the Ice and Fire Yin-Yang Well was, he would still need to improve his own strength first.

After all, those poisonous plants and ferocious beasts are no joke. Even an ordinary seventh-ring Soul Saint would surely die if he encountered them!

However, these are all things that will happen later. At present, Luo Chen is not even a three-ring Soul Master.

"Alright, then we'll have to save these herbs for later. But all these bottled pills have detailed descriptions on them."

As he spoke, Luo Chen took out all the pills. There were three kinds of pills in total, one of which was for strengthening the body's foundation and nourishing the vital energy, suitable for everyone present.

There is another type that can compensate for congenital defects, similar to the effect of the Xuan Shui Dan, but obviously of much better quality. It is worth trying for Tai'an. Perhaps it can help him improve his martial soul and break through to the second ring of the Great Soul Master.

As for the remaining one, it was the pill that Luo Chen had sensed earlier, the one that could cause his martial soul to fluctuate. However, after seeing the description written on it, Luo Chen understood:

"The Vitality Creation Pill is extremely potent. It is made from various herbs that replenish qi and blood and nourish vitality. Its effect is to greatly enhance the qi, blood, and vitality of the user. The side effect is that the user must have an extremely strong physique and meridians to withstand the effects, otherwise they will explode and die..."
