Douluo Continent has a system, but I don't want to use it.

Chapter 44 The Yin-Yang Well of Ice and Fire

"Yes! Senior's conditions are indeed very lenient. I will seriously consider them." Dugu Bo replied with a smile as soon as he heard that he could consider it before answering.

"I'll come back to you for an answer in three to six months. You can leave now. Also, don't tell anyone you've seen me. It'll be good for you, trust me." Fang Tian smiled, naturally seeing that Dugu Bo wanted to slip away, but Fang Tian didn't care.

If Dugu Bo really just takes the method I gave him and runs away, then it means Dugu Bo is not trustworthy at all. Why bother recruiting him then?

"Don't worry, senior. I will keep this matter of meeting you a secret. I will be waiting for you in Tiandou City." Dugu Bo said, bowed to Fang Tian and Qiu Fengyan, and then quickly left.

Dugu Bo did not suspect Fang Tian and Qiu Fengyan's presence here. He assumed they had met a few days ago, guessed his identity, and were now coming to recruit him.

Qiu Fengyan watched as Dugu Bo disappeared into the dense forest in the distance in a short while, and then turned her gaze to Fang Tian.

"Let's go down and take a look!" Fang Tian carefully sensed his surroundings and nodded to Qiu Fengyan when he saw that no one was nearby.

Upon hearing this, Qiu Fengyan immediately released her external soul bone and flew to the top of the deep valley, staring wide-eyed at Fang Tian.

"Hehe, what, do you want to see me make a fool of myself?" Fang Tian saw Qiu Fengyan staring intently at him and knew that she was planning to make a fool of him. He thought it best to ask her for help.

"Hehe! I just want to see how you'll handle the current situation." Qiu Fengyan naturally wouldn't admit her true intentions.

"Hehe! Have you forgotten what my martial spirit is?" Fang Tian said, releasing his martial spirit and controlling it to take deep root in the ground.

Then Fang Tian controlled three vines to wrap around his waist and grow downwards into the deep valley.

"It's that simple? What's wrong with me lately? Why do I feel like I've become stupid?" Qiu Fengyan slapped her head in frustration.

Despite saying that, Qiu Fengyan still carefully protected Fang Tian during his descent to prevent any unnecessary accidents.

Fang Tian's martial spirit, the sweet potato seedling, could not extend directly to the bottom of the deep valley. After reaching the limit of his control, Fang Tian controlled one of the vines around his waist to quickly take root and grow on the rock wall.

Then Fang Tian wrapped the newly rooted vine back around his waist, replaced it with two other vines, and repeated the process. He then continued to lower himself into the deep valley.

This process was repeated three times until Fang Tian finally reached the bottom of the deep valley.

This is a small basin, about a kilometer in circumference, surrounded by mountains on all sides.

In the center of the basin, on the southern side, lies a small oval pool, about twenty meters in diameter, half fiery red and half icy blue, lying quietly. Beside the fiery red and icy blue waters grow two immortal herbs—the fiery red Fiery Apricot Delicate Vegetable and the icy blue Eight-Cornered Mystic Ice Grass.

The spring is surrounded by a dense thicket of medicinal herbs, including many miraculous ones: Cockscomb Phoenix Sunflower, Silky Tulip, Fragrant Silky Fairy Herb, Heartbreaking Red Acacia, Black Jade Divine Bamboo, ...

Besides the celestial-grade herbs, there are many more herbs below the celestial grade: Ninth-grade Purple Ganoderma, Crystal Ginseng, Earthworm Grass, Nine-Life Flower, Immortal Resurrection Grass, Autumn Water Orchid, ...

Of course, all of this was identified by the system. Fang Tian couldn't wait to open the system as soon as he saw the herbs.

"Great! So many immortal herbs." Fang Tian was overjoyed, and even managed to identify several immortal herbs that were not mentioned in the original story.

Fang Tian carefully examined the information on the immortal herbs that weren't mentioned in the original work. What a pleasant surprise! He actually found an extraordinary immortal herb—the Yin-Yang Twin Flower.

Name: Yin Yang Twin Flowers

Age: 100,000 years

Description: Yin and Yang twins, blooming side by side. The Yang flower is bright and expansive, brimming with life; the Yin flower is cold and lifeless, exuding a chilling aura of killing intent. One person consuming it gains the domain—Yin and Yang Twins; two people consuming it separately can generate a Martial Soul Fusion Skill.

Harvesting and consumption method: Cut with a jade knife.

Fang Tian never expected that there was such a magical herb. In the original story, was it that Tang San, who did not recognize this flower, used it to make Yin-Yang Poison?

Fang Tian didn't want to discuss the specifics, but this huge surprise had just fallen into his arms.

"Haha!" Fang Tian laughed loudly, throwing his head back.

"Smack!" Qiu Fengyan smacked her on the head and said irritably, "What are you laughing at? Haven't you found out which medicinal herbs are useful to us yet?"

"Hehe! Of course I found it. But among these immortal herbs, there was one that brought an unexpected surprise, so I couldn't help but..."

"Oh! What surprise?" Qiu Fengyan asked curiously.

"I just saw a magical herb. Eating it can actually give us a Martial Soul Fusion Skill. Wouldn't you call that a pleasant surprise?" Fang Tian said to Qiu Fengyan with a smile.

"It can actually grant someone a Martial Soul Fusion Skill? And there's such a miraculous herb?" Qiu Fengyan exclaimed in surprise, "Then let's give it a try!"

Fang Tian had already explained the wonders of the Martial Soul Fusion Technique to Qiu Fengyan, so Qiu Fengyan immediately understood the power of the Yin-Yang Twin Flowers.

"Huh! Give it a try?" Fang Tian was dumbfounded.

"Don't try it lightly. Some of the medicinal properties of immortal herbs can conflict. If you can't fully digest the medicinal power of one immortal herb, it's best not to take another one."

"We have no idea how long the medicinal effects of the Yin-Yang Twin Flowers will last. It would be better to absorb other immortal herbs first!" Fang Tian advised.

"Alright, then hurry up and choose the immortal herbs we want to absorb." Qiu Fengyan's pretty face clearly showed disappointment.

Ignoring her disappointment, Fang Tian was focused on consuming the immortal herb, as it was the most important thing to do now that it was in front of him.

Fang Tian selected two immortal herbs for Qiu Fengyan: the Jade Bamboo and the Dew of Longing. The Jade Bamboo was used to enhance her martial spirit and improve her talent, while the Dew of Longing was used to enhance her spiritual power.

Fang Tian's spiritual power has now reached the level of a Title Douluo, and the Autumn Water Dew will not improve it much, so Fang Tian finally decided to give this immortal herb to Qiu Fengyan.

"Fengyan, this is the immortal herb I chose for you. Take it first, and I will protect you." Fang Tian handed the Ink Jade Divine Bamboo to Qiu Fengyan and told her how to take it, urging her to absorb and refine it quickly.

Fang Tian ultimately decided that the two of them should take the immortal herb separately, as this would be safer.

"Alright!" Qiu Fengyan took the Black Jade Divine Bamboo, released her martial spirit, cut off the top section of the bamboo, and then drank the Black Jade Divine Bamboo liquid inside.

Then repeat this process continuously until all the Black Jade Divine Bamboo Liquid has been consumed, and then sit cross-legged to absorb and refine it.

The medicinal effects of the Black Jade Divine Bamboo are relatively mild. Qiu Fengyan did not show any discomfort when absorbing and refining it, and her expression remained calm and indifferent.

Two hours later, Qiu Fengyan finished absorbing the nutrients and opened her eyes.

"How does it feel? Quickly release your martial spirit and see what changes occur?"
