Chapter 89 Two Women Refining Their Bodies

After finishing breakfast, Ye Liangchen and the other two entered Sunset Forest. Zhu Zhuqing was also looking forward to her fourth spirit ring. She was a competitive person, and seeing that Shui Bing'er was going to challenge for a ten-thousand-year fourth spirit ring, she also wanted to give it a try.

"Brother Chen, Sister Bing'er, I've decided to make the fourth ring last for ten thousand years too."

Zhu Zhuqing said something to Ye Liangchen and Shui Bing'er, who were observing the terrain.

"Don't worry, little kitty, I'll help you."

"Xiao Chen, if Zhu Qing and I absorb another ten-thousand-year soul bone, our physical attributes will be strengthened, and absorbing a ten-thousand-year soul ring should be easier."

"That's right! I forgot to ask Aunt Lan for the two soul bones. But don't worry, we can go to the Ice and Fire Yin-Yang Well to refine your bodies and improve your physical attributes."

"Brother Chen, it feels like the soul bone is just like a stone in your eyes."

"Little kitty, you're right. Let's go! We'll just fly; it'll be faster that way."

The three summoned their martial spirits and flew towards the depths of Sunset Forest.

"Swish, swish, swish..."

High in the sky, Ye Liangchen kept a watchful eye on everything around him, guarding against attacks from the flying soul beasts.

"Gagaga..."

"Awoo... Awoo..."

"Squeak...squeak..."

The three traversed the towering mountains, searching for spirit beasts. Every now and then, they disturbed some of the spirit beasts, who chased after them, howling as if warning them.

"Hiss..."

Just then, a giant human-faced spider leaped out of the forest, wielding its long, scythe-like legs, and charged towards the three of them.

"Chirp chirp..."

"First Soul Skill: Ice Seal".

"Xiao Chen, should we kill it?"

Shui Bing'er immediately summoned her martial soul and used an ice-sealing soul skill to block the human-faced demon spider.

"Don't kill it. This 6000-year-old human-faced demon spider is very powerful and can't be killed in a short time. It would be a waste of our time. Let's just fly away."

"Swish, swish, swish..."

Ye Liangchen urged the two women to retreat quickly, avoiding entanglement with the human-faced demon spider. After the three women activated their martial spirits, they quickly flapped their wings and flew directly to a height of 100 meters.

"Bang bang..."

"Hiss..."

The human-faced spider broke through Shui Bing'er's ice seal, but it was still not giving up. It kept jumping up the big trees and chasing the three of them for thousands of meters until they disappeared from sight, at which point it gave up.

"Zhuqing, this is so exciting!"

"Sister Bing'er, thankfully we all have flying skills, otherwise we would have been in danger. But that human-faced demon spider was so powerful!"

"Zhu Qing, that human-faced demon spider is over 6000 years old, and its combat power is even stronger than some ten-thousand-year-old soul beasts."

"The Man-Faced Spider is known as the Killer and is also extremely venomous, so we must be very careful."

The three of them stood atop a hundred-meter-tall tree, recalling the thrilling and exciting scene of being chased by a group of soul beasts.

A little incident allowed Shui Bing'er and Zhu Zhuqing to witness the dangers of Sunset Forest, but the two girls were not afraid; on the contrary, they were a little excited.

Ye Liangchen and the two women continued their exploration deeper into the forest. The forest was rich in resources, with all kinds of exotic flowers and rare herbs. Along the way, the three of them also picked many precious medicinal herbs.

Two days later, following the map of Sunset Forest drawn by Dugu Bo, Ye Liangchen finally arrived at a high mountain a thousand meters away from the Yin-Yang Well of Ice and Fire.

"Xiao Chen, there's a patch of green mist in the forest a few hundred meters ahead. What's that?"

"Brother Chen, that thick green fog looks really scary."

At this moment, Shui Bing'er and Zhu Zhuqing spotted a thick green fog in the distance, which sent chills down their spines.

"That was poisonous fog created by Senior Dugu Bo in the past, to protect the medicine garden, also known as the Ice and Fire Yin-Yang Eye. That poisonous fog is terrifying. Without an antidote, being infected by it will result in a terrible death."

"That's terrifying!"

Upon hearing Ye Liangchen say that it was poisonous fog, Shui Bing'er and Zhu Zhuqing immediately felt numb all over their bodies.

"Don't worry! I have antidote pills. Everyone take one, and we'll all be fine."

"Let's go straight there. Inside the poisonous fog protective zone, no soul beasts dare to approach. It's very safe inside."

"Swish, swish, swish..."

Ye Liangchen beckoned to the two women and flew directly towards the small mountain valley where the Ice and Fire Yin-Yang Eye was located. They planned to spend the night there and rest.

With antidote pills in their mouths, the three of them sped through the poisonous fog, heading straight for a high mountain ahead.

"Wow! Is this the Yin-Yang Well of Ice and Fire? It's actually located in a small valley high up in the mountains."

Arriving at the edge of the outermost cliff of the Ice and Fire Yin-Yang Eye, Shui Bing'er and Zhu Zhuqing looked at the valley that resembled a deep pit, with a spring of water in the middle that was about 100 square meters in size, red and white in color, which looked quite beautiful.

"Xiao Chen, I can sense an extremely cold power in that white pool water."

Shui Bing'er's martial soul is the Ice Phoenix, which makes her extremely sensitive to the power of extreme cold.

"Yes! The white pool water contains extremely cold power, while the red pool water contains extremely hot power. The two springs meet to form this Yin-Yang Well of Ice and Fire."

"Let's go! We'll fly down. I've thought of a way for you to use those two energies to refine your bodies."

Ye Liangchen gave a brief explanation to the two women, and then flew down directly.

"Swish, swish, swish..."

The three of them slowly descended from the edge of the cliff into the Valley of the Two Elements of Ice and Fire, and immediately felt two powerful energies.

"What powerful energy!"

Shui Bing'er and Zhu Zhuqing dared not approach the spring, and could only watch from a distance.

Ye Liangchen originally intended to use the hot and cold spring water in the pool to refine the Ice and Fire Yin-Yang Pill, but the energy within was too domineering, and he estimated that it would be impossible.

"Got it."

"There are two kinds of energy in my blood, and they are very gentle. This method will definitely work."

Thinking of this, Ye Liangchen took out a small jade bottle and pricked his finger with a knife. In an instant, bright red blood flowed out, and Ye Liangchen quickly caught it with the jade bottle.

"Xiao Chen, why did you stab your finger with a knife?"

"Brother Chen..."

Shui Bing'er and Zhu Zhuqing didn't understand what this guy was going to do. Seeing that a lot of blood was flowing from his fingers, they felt a little sorry for him.

"Don't worry."

"I once used two extremely cold and extremely hot herbs to refine the Ice and Fire Yin-Yang Pill. After I took that pill and refined it, my physical body became stronger. Now my blood contains the energy of ice and fire. I plan to use this blood to refine some pills for you to use for body tempering."

After collecting the blood, Ye Liangchen applied some ointment to the wound on his finger to stop the bleeding.

"Wait here for me..."

Ye Liangchen walked to the Ice-Fire Spring, took out the medicine cauldron, and took out some neutral and mild medicinal materials, preparing to refine a simplified version of the Ice-Fire Yin-Yang Pill for the two women.

"Buzzing..."

Ye Liangchen slowly placed the medicine cauldron into the scorching Yangquan spring, then added several neutral and mild medicinal herbs. After a while, he poured the blood directly into the jade bottle.

"Buzzing..."

In an instant, a fragrant aroma wafted from the medicine cauldron, mixed with fluctuations of ice and fire energy. Sensing that the ice and fire energy was a bit weak, Ye Liangchen used his soul power to mobilize the ice and fire energy in the spring pool and injected a tiny bit into the medicine cauldron, then waited quietly.

In order to get the best effect of the medicine, Ye Liangchen closed his eyes and released his divine sense, concentrating on sensing the changes in the medicine cauldron. Now that his divine sense was open, it felt a bit like infrared scanning, which was more effective than the naked eye.

"This little guy actually used his own blood to refine pills for us, what a fool!"

Watching the little guy's actions from afar, Shui Bing'er's heart was touched once again. She felt incredibly heartbroken and moved, and tears streamed down her face.

Time passed slowly, and half an hour later, Ye Liangchen felt that the time was right. He directly fished the medicine cauldron out of the scorching Yangquan spring, opened the lid, and saw two red and white pills lying quietly at the bottom of the cauldron. They had been successfully refined.

"Ladies, come and experience the sensation of both ice and fire! It will definitely make your bodies stronger."

Ye Liangchen took two pills and handed them to Shui Bing'er and the kitten.

"How could you be so foolish? Using your blood to refine pills for us, how can we possibly consume them? Isn't that just drinking your blood?"

"Brother Chen..."

Shui Bing'er and the kitten felt a tightness in their chests as they looked at Ye Liangchen's calm demeanor. This guy was even willing to bleed to make himself stronger.

"Don't worry about these things, just treat it as a pill."

"I have plenty of blood, so I'm fine. I'll just let out a little blood, consider it a way to lose weight. Look, even the wound on my finger has healed."

Ye Liangchen waved his hand dismissively, urging the two women to quickly take the pills.

"Quickly take this pill. It will make your bodies stronger. However, after you take the pill, two forces, one cold and one hot, will clash within your bodies. It will be more effective if you go into the middle of the spring to absorb it."

Ye Liangchen explained the effects of the simplified version of the Ice and Fire Yin-Yang Pill to the two women, so that they could be mentally prepared.

"Alright! I'll do as you say, sister."

Shui Bing'er looked at the pill in her hand and smelled it carefully. There was no bloody smell, but rather a light fragrance, similar to the fragrance emanating from the little guy's body.

"Brother Chen, thank you."

After the kitten finished speaking, she swallowed the pill. In an instant, the pill transformed into two streams of energy, one cold and one hot, which surged wildly within her body.

"Ahhh...! Brother Chen, this...this is so uncomfortable, it's so hot and cold all the time."

Zhu Zhuqing let out a sharp cry, her skin appearing half red and half white, which looked very strange.

"Ah...! Xiao Chen, is this... the 'ice and fire' you were talking about?"

At this moment, Shui Bing'er also took the pill and finally experienced what it meant to experience both ice and fire. This exhilarating feeling was truly extraordinary.

"Don't worry, there's no danger. Take your time to get used to it. Quickly use your soul power to mobilize those two energies and let them flow into your limbs and bones."

"You'll absorb the nutrients in that spring later; it'll be more effective. Remember to take off your clothes, or they'll fall apart instantly once you're in the water."

After instructing the two women, Ye Liangchen walked behind a large rock and let the Blue Silver Emperor come out to absorb energy. Then he prepared to guard outside the valley, because the scene was too beautiful to bear.

"Xiao Chen, where are you going?" Just then, Shui Bing'er, who was refining pills, called out to Ye Liangchen.

"I'll go outside the valley and keep watch for you. You can go to the spring to train your bodies without worry later," Ye Liangchen said calmly.

"You have to come with me; I'm too scared to go into the water alone."

Shui Bing'er wanted to be with this guy; without him by her side, she dared not go down into that terrifying ice and fire spring.

"Brother Chen, the water looks scary, we're too scared to go down," the kitten said pitifully.

"Ladies, isn't this a bit inappropriate?"

Ye Liangchen's head was buzzing. If he went down into the spring with them, the scene would be too exciting.

"You brat, what haven't we seen before? We've kissed, we've touched, what are you worried about? Hurry up."

Shui Bing'er walked straight over, grabbed Ye Liangchen, and led him to a large rock in the distance. She quickly removed all of his equipment, then removed her own, leaving only her bikini. She then threw her soul tool and clothes onto the rock.

"Oh My God."

"Sister Bing'er, you're so violent!"

Ye Liangchen was completely dumbfounded by Shui Bing'er's actions. All he could see was a white expanse; the scene was too beautiful to bear.

"This is nothing. I'll let you experience even more violent scenes later."

Shui Bing'er smiled sweetly and called out to the kitten in the distance, asking her to come into the water with her.

"Sister Zhuqing, hurry up, let's soak together."

"Oh! Okay, boss."

Shui Bing'er spoke, and the kitten immediately followed, quickly removing its equipment and then rushing to the two of them. It grabbed Ye Liangchen's hand on either side of Shui Bing'er and jumped into the center of the spring.

"Aaaaaah...! Xiao Chen, I feel like I'm going to die!"

"Brother Chen, am I going to die?! Ahhh..."

Upon entering the spring, they were immediately assaulted by the immense energy emanating from the icy-fire spring, causing them great pain. The two women clung tightly to Ye Liangchen like two octopuses, constantly emitting screams of agony.

"Quickly calm down, relax your mind and body, mobilize your soul power, and refine the energy in the pill."

"Don't talk about dying or anything. With me here, you won't die."

Ye Liangchen was speechless at this moment. Being tricked by the two women was really going to kill him. Especially the kitten's proud figure, it was simply: If you are not big, how can you win people's hearts?

I don't know if everyone else can handle it? I certainly can't.

At this moment, the only equipment the two women had was also reduced to nothing by the powerful energy impact of the spring water. Ye Liangchen closed his eyes, silently recited the Ice Heart Mantra in his heart, and calmed down.

"A pure heart remains unperturbed even when the sky falls..."

Shui Bing'er and the kitten followed Ye Liangchen's instructions and began to relax their minds and bodies, using the impact of ice and fire energy to temper their bodies.

"Sister Bing'er, I feel that my physical strength has become much stronger."

"Yes! Sister Zhuqing, I felt it too."

An hour later, the two women gradually got used to it and no longer felt uncomfortable. On the contrary, they felt quite comfortable, which was truly amazing.

Shui Bing'er looked at Ye Liangchen, who was resting with his eyes closed, and smiled. This little guy is really fun.

"Xiao Chen, why are you closing your eyes? Come and see if your sister has a good figure!"

Shui Bing'er reached out and pinched Ye Liangchen's face, thinking that she and the little guy had been spending every night together these past few days, and had done everything they were supposed to do. All that was left was to take the final step of cultivation. Now he was getting shy.

"Pfft...! Brother Chen, what are you thinking about?"

The kitten swam over, scooped up water with its paws, and sprinkled it on Ye Liangchen's head.

"Hey! Ladies, could you please be a little more reserved?"

"You guys look a bit like female thugs right now!"

Ye Liangchen shook his head helplessly as he watched the two women letting loose.

"Xiao Chen, we're not strangers, what are you afraid of?" Shui Bing'er reached out and hugged him, starting to show affection.

"Sister Bing'er, you're showing off again." The kitten chuckled beside her.

The Blue Silver Emperor, who was in the distance, was absorbing the ice and fire energy in the valley. Hearing the laughter, it quietly transformed into a four-meter-tall creature. When it saw the three people taking a bath together in the spring, it thought: These two girls are really bold. Can Xiao Chen handle it?

"Ladies, you may leave now. After you've dressed, go outside the valley. Don't peek at me."

Three hours later, Ye Liangchen turned around and instructed the two women to get out of the pool first, otherwise it would be a bit awkward.

"Alright! I'll listen to you, Sister Zhuqing, let's go out first."

Shui Bing'er pulled the kitten out of the Ice and Fire Spring pool. Originally, she didn't care about these things, but now that she had no equipment on her and the kitten was still there, she couldn't go too far.

The kitten secretly glanced back at Ye Liangchen, only seeing the back of his head. It found it very amusing; this man was simply an absolute gem.

These past few days, the kitten has been provoked by Shui Bing'er, and it has also taken the initiative to engage in some playful fighting with that guy. In the words of the big sister Shui Bing'er, it's called "cultivating feelings".
