Douluo Continent: Lin Dong transmigrates into Huo Yuhao

Chapter 180 Casual Pill Refining, Eating Immortal Herbs Like Beans

The lower realm, the eye of ice and fire, within the undead demiplane.

Di Tian stared at Lin Dong, who remained calm, and swallowed hard, swallowing hard the saliva that arose from his shock and fear.

Everything he experienced today made it impossible for him to look the boy in the eye.

With his Soul Saint strength, he defeated three gods, forcing them to flee in disarray. He also possessed an independent space, mysterious light and shadow, and the ability to manipulate those mysterious runes.

Oh, and those runes! Lin Dong was actually able to control the phantom that had made him and his master look so disheveled back then through this mysterious light and shadow!

Seeing Di Tian's expression, Lin Dong calmly looked at him and Gu Yuena and said:

"I'm sorry, I didn't mean to lie to you. Even if I had told you back then, you probably wouldn't have believed me."

Hearing Lin Dong's words, Gu Yuena and Di Tian could only awkwardly twitch their lips. Just as Lin Dong said, at that time, they only regarded Lin Dong as an ant that could be crushed at will.

But now, perhaps they can be considered as ants easily crushed. They were beaten without any power to fight back after only taking one hit from that mysterious phantom.

The mysterious phantom summoned by Lin Dong caused three gods to fight to the death with just one move, and they only managed to escape by luck.

The difference between them and that mysterious phantom was something they could hardly imagine based on their limited understanding of power.

"So what are you planning to do next? Offending the gods is no joke."

Hearing Xue Di's slightly worried voice, Lin Dong looked at Yan and asked softly:

"Was the final blow effective? How long will it keep them unconscious?"

"If nothing unexpected happens, it will take at least a month or two," Yan replied quietly.

"Alright, the task you gave me is complete. You need to find the Primordial Ancestral Symbol and the Primordial Dragon Bone. Now, it's time for me to fall into slumber..."

As his voice grew weaker, the mysterious light and shadow gradually disappeared from Lin Shou's palm...

As the rock vanished from his hand, a flicker of emotion flashed in Lin Dong's eyes, and he murmured softly:

"Don't worry, I have a feeling we'll find it soon."

Turning to look at Xue Di and the others, he said softly, "Get ready. Since Tang San can't descend to the mortal realm for a while, it's time to collect the spoils."

Spoils of war? Di Tian and the others were taken aback. Only after seeing the rare immortal herbs scattered throughout the valley did they look at Lin Dong with trepidation and ask softly:

"We're involved too?"

Lin Dong grinned: "Of course, since we're mortal enemies, how could we possibly leave this place behind? We'll definitely take everything."

"I don't need that many by myself. You all helped out just now. I, Lin Dong, am not an ungrateful beast. If I see something I want, I'll just take it."

Upon hearing this, Di Tian and the others were overjoyed. These immortal herbs would greatly help improve their cultivation and physical fitness, not to mention Lin Dong's kindness, how could they refuse?

He then looked at Lin Dong with gratitude, clasped his hands in a fist salute, and smiled, "Thank you!"

Upon hearing this, the immortal herbs immediately felt as if they were facing a formidable enemy. Even with their cultivation of 100,000 years, how could they possibly be a match for these monsters before them!

That was the Beast God Emperor Tian, ​​the Lord of Soul Beasts, the Emperor Auspicious Beast, the Overlord of the Far North, and that most terrifying and bizarre human, capable of summoning phantoms even more powerful than gods.

What's worse is that they are unable to move around, so they have nowhere to run!

In other words, they, who are exceptionally powerful to other humans, are now like herbs that can be picked at will, yielding no further results.

Soon, after the venomous curses of the immortal herbs subsided, the entire valley fell silent.

Any magical herbs that showed any ability or intention to resist were quickly eliminated by them.

The essence of the herbs, such as the fiery glue of the Fiery Apricot and the elixir of the Fragrant Silk Fairy, were all given to Lin Dong.

After all, Lin Dong was the main reason they were able to obtain these herbs, and could even be considered their sole contributor.

Lin Dong glanced at the items and asked softly:

"What are these purple beads, that flaming glue, the ice crystals condensed from the octagonal ice grass, and that chrysanthemum for?"

The auspicious beast picked up the conversation, picked up the Tang Sect manual that had fallen to the ground earlier, turned a page, and explained:

"That clump of blazing glue is something that takes ten thousand years to form, and such a large piece can refine a fire-attribute soul master's own attributes to the ultimate fire level."

The effect of this Fragrant Silk Elixir is that, centered on it, all poisons within a radius of thirty feet will become ineffective. Even if someone is poisoned and the toxins have entered the bloodstream, simply holding it in their mouth can neutralize all poisons.

The ice crystals condensed from the Eight-Cornered Ice Grass, like the blazing glue, can make the ice attribute purer and stronger for those with ice attribute martial souls, while also improving their cold resistance and physical fitness!

That chrysanthemum is called the Qirong Tongtian Chrysanthemum. Consuming it can greatly enhance one's soul power level and physical attributes, allowing one to cultivate an indestructible body.

Upon hearing this, Lin Dong hesitated for a moment, then took the four items and nodded.

"Help me search again to see if there are any magical herbs that can improve my level or physical attributes, according to the explanation in that manual."

The auspicious beast nodded obediently, carefully flipping through the contents of the manual repeatedly, and began searching rapidly in the valley.

Snow Empress watched as Lin Dong headed straight for the Blazing Yang Spring and the Extremely Cold Yin Spring, and couldn't help but whisper a reminder:

"That's the point where extreme fire and extreme ice meet. It's dangerous. You've just been through a fierce battle, so be careful."

Lin Dong paused, his expression calm, and said, "Don't worry."

As soon as he finished speaking, two Ancestral Symbols, one red and one blue, appeared around Lin Dong and flew towards the Blazing Yang Spring and the Extremely Cold Yin Spring respectively.

In an instant, the two springs that had been raging suddenly quieted down, as if they had encountered something extremely terrifying.

A bitter look flashed in Xue Di's eyes. She had been overthinking things. Lin Dong probably possessed more than a few extreme attributes now, even those two springs couldn't compare.

"Take any of the remaining immortal herbs that you might find useful, but don't leave them for that beast named Tang San."

Lin Dong spoke softly as he walked deeper into the valley. Suddenly, his eyes narrowed as he saw a tiny, extremely frail white flower on a dark rock.

The small flower resembles a peony, but it has no fragrance, no decoration, and not even a single leaf. All it has is a faint crimson hue, a color filled with sorrow.

Lin Dong looked at the strange flower, and the surrounding immortal herbs seemed to bow down and submit to it.

Lin Dong turned to the people behind him and asked:

"What is this thing? It seems to hold a high position among these plants."

Hearing the sound, the auspicious beast came over with the manual. Its large eyes darted around, and after a moment's thought, it pointed to the manual and explained:

"I've got it! The Love-Sickness Heartbreak Grass, also known as the Love-Sickness Heartbreak Red, looks like a flower but is actually a grass. It resembles a peony but has no leaves. Its roots are connected to black black stones. It is a divine treasure among immortal herbs."

It has a legendary story. Long ago, there was a young boy...

This flower is no ordinary flower; it chooses its master carefully. When picking it, one must think of their beloved and spit out a mouthful of blood onto the petals. If one is even slightly distracted, even if one spits blood and dies, it is impossible to pick the flower.

Once the flower is picked and placed beside its owner, it will never wither. The stone beneath the grass is called Wujue. If it is forcibly destroyed, the Acacia Heartbreak Red will lose all its medicinal properties.

Consuming this item grants immortality, comparable to that of heaven and earth, extending lifespan by at least ten years and significantly increasing soul power.

"Years ago, my wife, out of her deep love for me, once picked the Love-Sickness Heartbreak Red. She was a 100,000-year-old Soft-Boned Rabbit Soul Beast who had been reborn as a human. She sacrificed herself to save me, and I later saved her with this herb. I am grateful for her kindness."

Before we vanish into the void, we return to the Yin-Yang Well of Ice and Fire to replant it, leaving it for those destined to receive it, for lovers to cherish. The Love-Sickness Grass only loves those in love; it must not be forced. Remember this well.

Lin Dong seemed somewhat moved after hearing this, and couldn't help but murmur to himself:

"To claim immortality equal to heaven and earth simply by adding ten years to one's lifespan? This…" Lin Dong was momentarily speechless, then his eyes turned cold:

"Just listening to his story with his wife, there's a certain genuine emotion to it, but... that doesn't excuse his death. I just wonder how he got to the realm of the gods?"

Xue Di and the others' expressions changed, and they seemed to have thought about it very seriously before slowly answering:

"To be honest, we're not sure either. This method of becoming a god has been lost for many years. If we really want to find a way to obtain it, we should still have to go to Shrek Academy."

Upon hearing this, a murderous glint flashed in Lin Dong's eyes, and he said in an icy tone:

"Ah, yes, Shrek Academy definitely has to go. That old dog Xuanzi won't be able to keep jumping around for much longer."

Although the others were not familiar with his feud with Shrek Academy, they could still clearly see that Lin Dong's attitude towards Shrek Academy seemed to be not much different from his attitude towards Tang San.

"Alright, since this Love-Sickness Heartbreak Grass is rather special, let's leave it here for now. Once I figure out the method of resurrection, I'll find a way to pick it."

The group nodded, and Xue Di looked at him gently and said:

I'm currently reading the error-free version! This is the first time I've published this novel.

"Alright, let's go collect the rest of the herbs. Are you ready to begin your cultivation?"

Lin Dong hummed in agreement, and the others stepped aside. Lin Dong accepted the herbs that were brought to him one by one: purple beads, red flaming glue, eight-cornered ice grass, white snow silkworm, and nine-grade dragon mushroom.

Those rare and precious herbs were now laid out in front of Lin Dong. Just as Lin Dong was about to consume them, he suddenly seemed to remember something, and with a flick of his hand, the Ancestral Stone appeared in his palm.

Lin Dong tried placing the fiery red scorching glue on the surface of the Ancestral Stone. After a moment, the scorching glue was directly absorbed into it, and in its place were three fiery red pills!

Seeing that his guess had been confirmed, Lin Dong grinned with some joy and placed the corpse of the Fragrant Silk Immortal on it. Two pills, identical to the purple bead, also popped out.

Immediately afterwards, Lin Dong used the Ancestral Stone to replicate three copies of those pills. Apart from the pills formed from the Eight-Cornered Profound Ice Grass and the Blazing Apricot, he distributed the other types to the Snow Emperor Beast and others according to their suitability.

There were also pills suitable for Xiao Hongchen and Meng Hongchen, which Lin Dong placed in his storage soul tool, waiting to return and give them to the two after this training session.

Di Tian and his companion were utterly astonished by the pills Lin Dong had given them. Neither of them had ever seen anything like them before. The medicinal power of these pills was several times stronger than that of immortal herbs!

More importantly, Lin Dong refined those immortal herbs into pills almost effortlessly!

Although they were extremely shocked, they were unwilling and dared not refuse Lin Dong's kindness, so they smiled and accepted the pill.

The Snow Emperor and the Auspicious Beast, on the other hand, received pills refined from the Eight-Cornered Mystic Ice Grass and the Fiery Apricot Blossom, respectively.

After distributing the pills, Lin Dong swallowed the ones he had prepared one by one, and then entered a state of cultivation along with Xue Di and the others…

A month passed in the blink of an eye. Lin Dong suddenly opened his eyes, a glint of light flashing in them. His lips twitched with delight as he said:

"Level 79. Although it's not as exaggerated as the manual describes, the improvement is indeed obvious. No wonder Tang San kept this place hidden away."

"In the entire Douluo Continent, this place is probably the only one that can be called a secret realm..."

Lin Dong stood up, looked at Xue Di and the others who were waiting quietly to the side, and clasped his hands in a slightly apologetic gesture:

"The cultivation has taken quite a while; I apologize for keeping you all waiting."

Di Tian waved his hand politely:

"You're too kind. We're not just waiting here idly. Those immortal herbs are quite useful for people at our level. Besides, the energy here is much richer than in the Star Dou Forest, and our cultivation has improved as a result."

Gu Yuena exuded the aloofness of someone in a superior position. She blinked her beautiful purple eyes, her tone softening slightly:

"Yes, we are indebted to you. We would wait even if it were a year, let alone a month."

Lin Dong smiled noncommittally, then looked at the Snow Empress and the auspicious beast and said softly:

"You two, one with the ultimate fire attribute and the other with the ultimate ice attribute, why don't you cultivate in those two springs?"

The two were clearly shocked by his idea, staring at him blankly for a long time before finally speaking:

"This is something made of extreme ice and extreme fire. I can make do with cultivating in that extremely cold Yin Spring, but since it's not cold enough, the effect won't be very good."

"But letting the auspicious beast cultivate in that scorching hot spring is no different from killing her, since her physical body and cultivation level are somewhat lacking."

Seeing Xue Di's slightly speechless look, Lin Dong smiled awkwardly. As if he had thought of something, he flipped his palm and two ancestral symbols, ice and fire, appeared.

Suspended above the two springs, one cold and one hot, Lin Dong lightly raised his left hand and pressed down with his right. The Ice Ancestral Symbol floated upwards, while the Flame Ancestral Symbol approached downwards.

While the temperature of the blazing Yang Spring was suppressed considerably, the coldness of the frigid Yin Spring also increased significantly. This strange change startled everyone.

Where did that talisman that no one could touch go? And what is this thing that's so obedient in Lin's hands, like a child?

Lin Dong turned to look at the auspicious beast and the Snow Empress, and chuckled, "Is that all?"

Xue Di blushed slightly, but nodded without showing any emotion.

"No problem. With the help of this Ice Ancestral Symbol, even I feel the extreme coldness biting to the bone."

The auspicious beast nodded with great delight, looking at him with a playful smile:

"Of course, no problem! I can even take a bath in here!"

Hearing her innocent words, Lin Dong couldn't help but smile and affectionately patted her head.

"Don't easily sacrifice your life for others in the future. At least Tang San and the others' lives are not comparable to yours."

"Hmm!" Upon hearing this, the auspicious beast became somewhat excited, biting its lip and nodding emphatically, not daring to look up at Lin Dong.

It's a pity that all the sentient herbs in the valley have been wiped out, otherwise they would surely be amazed by what they said.

Soaking in the scorching Yangquan Spring, while the frigid Yinquan Spring isn't cold enough, does that mean Tang San's life isn't worthy of it? If these words were to get out, people would probably call them fools.

If the Shrek Academy members heard this, they would be furious; they would not allow anyone to insult their ancestor, Tang San.

After Di Tian and Gu Yuena left with some pills made from immortal herbs, Lin Dong and the Snow Emperor Beast continued to cultivate in the Yin-Yang Well of Ice and Fire.

The Snow Emperor sat in the frigid Yin Spring, the auspicious beast sat in the blazing Yang Spring, and Lin Dong sat between the two springs, with a huge black hole floating behind him.

Like a whale swallowing its prey, they continuously absorbed the energy of the valley and the spring, and the auras of the three of them rose steadily over time…
