Douluo Continent: Ice Phoenix Rebuilds Her Skills and Enrolls in Tianshui Academy

Chapter 45 The Yin-Yang Eye of Ice and Fire: The Opportunity for Evolution!

"Yanyan is three years older than you, but you are more mature and composed. I saw that she was interested, so I shamelessly asked her to."

"I know that although Yanyan is outstanding among her peers, she is far inferior to you. Therefore, I only ask for a formal title and do not wish to confine you..."

The meaning behind Dugu Bo's words is quite intriguing.

As long as Chu Han acknowledges Dugu Yan as his partner, that's fine. Whether Chu Han seeks other, more outstanding partners is entirely up to him.

Chu Han resolutely refused:

"I've only known Miss Yanyan for a few days, how can I be so hasty?"

"Besides, I don't have any plans to be in a relationship right now."

"Old Poison Master, let's not bring this up again."

Dugu Bo sighed softly and did not insist.

In reality, he was just giving Chu Han a heads-up.

In the future, when Dugu Yan and Chu Han have spent more time together and developed feelings for each other, it won't be too late to bring up the past again.

"I was just saying."

"Little devil, when are you going to the Ice and Fire Yin-Yang Well?"

Chu Han pondered for a moment:

"I don't have any plans recently, you can go anytime."

Dugu Bo was itching to get his hands on it.

"There's no time like the present; Sunset Forest isn't far, how about we set off today?"

"Alright, but I would like to trouble you, Old Poison Master, to send someone to inform Tianshui Academy."

……

Sunset Forest. The Yin-Yang Well of Ice and Fire.

It was nearly dusk when Dugu Bo led Chu Han into what appeared to be an ordinary valley. After walking for several miles, the scenery suddenly opened up.

The setting sun casts its slanting rays.

A wave of hot and cold air hit my face.

Even before reaching the outer edge of the Ice and Fire Yin-Yang Eye, one could clearly sense that this place was unusual.

After going much further, Dugu Bo stopped.

"The toxins in my body haven't been completely eliminated yet. If I go in again, I won't be able to control them. Little demon, this place is full of poisonous creatures. Are you sure you can handle it?"

"Anyone with hands can do it."

The four simple words, though they might sound like something that makes you want to punch someone, conveyed an unmistakable confidence.

Chu Han instructed:

"Old poisoner, you wait for me here."

"After I go in, I will make some preparations, so even if I stay for a long time, nothing will go wrong."

"Don't panic, don't go in without permission."

Dugu Bo snorted coldly.

"You little devil, I wouldn't risk my life just to worry about you!"

Chu Han knew that Dugu Bo was aloof and always had a stubborn personality.

She didn't argue with him, but simply stepped into the depths of the Yin-Yang Well of Ice and Fire.

The closer he got, the more comfortable Chu Han felt.

Extreme attributes grant immunity to most toxins. Chu Han possesses both extreme ice and extreme fire, so even without any protection, he need not worry about being poisoned.

"Logically speaking, the ultimate ice and ultimate fire are only the limits of the Douluo Continent, and the potential of the Phoenix inheritance is far more than that."

"It's just that we've been limited by the energy level and haven't been able to make a breakthrough. This time, the massive energy in the Ice and Fire Yin-Yang Well is the opportunity for quantitative change to lead to qualitative change."

The true Phoenix Fire possesses divine attributes, is immortal and indestructible, and purifies evil spirits.

It is possible to be reborn from the ashes.

Along the way, Chu Han saw many thousand-year-old and ten-thousand-year-old spiritual herbs. When he arrived at the core, all the hundred-thousand-year-old immortal herbs came into view.

"Tang San is ultimately short-sighted, which is also related to his limited knowledge."

"After all, the Xuan Tian Treasure Mirror is only a low-level martial arts inheritance. Faced with a treasure like an immortal herb, if you don't know how to deal with it, swallowing the whole plant is the best method within your knowledge."

"However, the alchemy techniques in the Phoenix inheritance."

"Not to mention these ancient spiritual herbs, even those that are ten thousand years old or hundreds of thousands of years old, even naturally born spiritual plants can be used for alchemy to enhance their medicinal properties."

"Looks like I'm going to be busy for a while."

Tang San is wasting a precious resource! This Yin-Yang Well of Ice and Fire should rightfully belong to Chu Han!

"The medicinal herbs are rare; we only use the useful parts and do not harm the original plant."

"We can't end up like Tang San, a wild boar rooting up cabbages."

Chu Han bent down slightly and stopped in front of the Acacia Heartbreak Red.

"This flower is growing the best; it truly deserves to be called the king of immortal herbs."

If you pluck a single petal and combine it with other ancient spiritual herbs, you can refine the Acacia Maple Leaf Pill.

The effects of elixirs:

It can penetrate through the limbs and bones, cleanse the marrow and nurture a seed of love within the body, concealing the aura of a soul beast.

Under the influence of love and longing, the seed of love grows and can conceal the secrets of heaven (and incidentally, the aura of the soul beast). When it perishes, the seed of love will remain, protecting a bit of its true spirit from annihilation.

If a powerful being intervenes in the future, there is a chance of resurrection, making it a very strong means of survival.

The Acacia Heartbreak Red has ten petals in total.

Chu Han removed two petals and kept them.

The remaining two petals will take about two hundred years to grow back.

"In the original story, Tang San once said that one could only consume one immortal herb at most, otherwise its effects would be greatly reduced. However, he himself consumed three, which is contradictory."

"As long as the right conditions are met, such as refining it into an elixir, it is equivalent to the elixir of Laozi, and eating a few gourds of it will still have a strong effect."

"Or some naturally born divine beasts, like the Taotie, can convert all the food they eat into pure primordial energy. But we can't blame Tang San for that, since the Xuan Tian Bao Jian is his textbook, and he would never question it under any circumstances."

In Chu Han's view, Tang San was undoubtedly a genius.

However, he was a genius at imitation, not a genius at creation.

A mortal can learn the Xuan Tian Bao Jian in a dozen years, but after becoming a god, he spends countless years just relying on the old knowledge of the Xuan Tian Bao Jian, without any innovation or improvement.

This may be related to personality.

People who are used to stealing will never think about creating something themselves.

His creative abilities were also greatly diminished, even falling short of those of ordinary people.

Chu Han strolled forward and arrived at the edge of the pool where the Ice and Fire Yin-Yang Wells were located.

I saw the eight-cornered ice grass and the fiery apricot blossoms.

In the original story, Tang San consumed these two immortal herbs, which gave him a constitution that made him immune to water and fire and impervious to all poisons.

"Unfortunately, it's useless for me."

Chu Han possesses both extreme ice and extreme fire, reaching the limit of the ultimate attributes in the Douluo Continent.

It is a physique that is stronger than Tang San's Ice and Fire Physique.

These two magical herbs were of no use to him, of course.

It's somewhat useful, but not much; it's more of a nice-to-have than a practical necessity.

"However, when two immortal herbs are combined with other neutral and balanced spiritual herbs, they can be refined into the Profound Ice and Blazing Fire Pill, which can improve one's physique and achieve a body of water and fire. The effect is similar to that of Tang San in the original story when he swallowed two immortal herbs, but slightly weaker. However, it has the advantage of a large quantity, so it should be able to refine at least 7 or 8 pills."

Chu Han squatted down, stretched out his hand, and gently stroked the surface of the cold pool and the fire pool.

A strong urge surged through my body, carrying an underlying expectation.

There seems to be something extraordinary deep within this pool.
