Douluo Continent: I possess astonishing wisdom as I control energy!

Kong Ming'an murmured softly, a hint of interest unconsciously creeping into his voice.

A faint blue light flickered in his eyes as his energy vision activated. His gaze pierced through the poison barrier, landing on the clusters of alluring white flowers within it.

"I'll roughly note its location, and pick a few flowers later as material," Kong Ming'an called softly.

"Snow Emperor."

Before the words had even faded, a snow-white figure took a step forward gently beside him.

Xue Di still had her long white hair flowing down to her waist, and her icy blue eyes were ethereal and pure.

But compared to her initial absolute coldness, her eyes now seemed to have a bit more life in them, and her response to Kong Ming'an was no longer simply obedience, but more natural.

"Don't completely destroy this poison array. Just open a gap that will allow us to pass through temporarily. It might be useful later."

Kong Ming'an spoke up.

Xue Di nodded slightly, knowingly raised her slender, jade-like finger, and gently touched the colorful poisonous miasma in front of her.

There was no earth-shattering display, only an extremely deep, chilling, icy blue light silently spreading out from her fingertips.

Wherever it passed, the churning poisonous miasma, the alluring, writhing Azure Phosphorous Seven-Flaw Flower, and even the poisonous fog permeating the air, were instantly frozen solid by the absolute zero chill.

Everything froze, forming a brief safe passage in front of the two.

Chapter 58 The Ice and Fire Yin-Yang Well Changes Hands

"Okay."

Xue Di withdrew her hand, her voice clear and calm.

Naturally approaching Kong Ming'an, Xue Di slowly emanated an invisible, extremely cold domain, isolating the occasional faint poisonous gas that drifted over, while also firmly protecting Kong Ming'an within her domain.

The two walked side by side and stepped inside.

Soon, after Kong Ming'an casually picked a few Azure Phosphorescent Seven-Flaw Flowers as materials, the two easily passed through the poison array, and suddenly, the scene before them opened up.

Unlike the deathly silence and terror within the poisonous array, this place was teeming with life.

The abundant spiritual energy of heaven and earth almost materialized. Kong Ming'an instinctively took a deep breath, and instantly, his soul power began to circulate instinctively, converting the abundant spiritual energy of heaven and earth into soul power, propelling his cultivation forward.

His cultivation speed will at least double if he cultivates here!

It really is a treasure land

Kongming murmured to himself, his gaze fixed on the center ahead.

There, a strange spring is divided in two: one side is crimson red like lava, constantly churning with scorching bubbles and radiating extreme heat; the other side is milky white, chillingly cold, with its surface covered in ice crystals that never melt.

Two diametrically opposed energies merge perfectly here, forming a magnificent, mystical scene resembling a giant yin-yang symbol.

Around the spring, there were exotic flowers and rare herbs in various shapes and sizes. From Kong Ming'an's energy perspective, they presented different energy structures and revealed the enormous energy contained within them.

Without a doubt, this is the Eye of Ice and Fire.

Kong Ming'an and Xue Di slowly approached, and almost the next moment, the huge pink flower on the bank where the ice and fire Yin-Yang Well waters met trembled slightly, and then an angry voice suddenly rang out:

"Who are you?! How dare you trespass here! Leave at once, or don't blame me for being impolite!"

It is a fragrant and exquisite celestial product.

At this moment, she stared at the two uninvited guests before her, and without any hesitation, the oppressive aura of a 100,000-year-old soul beast pressed down directly.

However, when the oppressive aura descended, neither of them changed their movements.

Kong Ming'an examined the fragrant and exquisite fairy flower with great interest, a faint blue light gleaming in his eyes, as if he were observing an interesting specimen.

Meanwhile, Xue Di's gaze was drawn to an eight-cornered Xuanbing Grass, pure white and carved from ice crystals, near the frigid spring. The ice-attribute aura it exuded made her feel very comfortable.

The two, in perfect unison, ignored the warning from the Fragrant and Exquisite Immortal Item.

"You...you dare to ignore me!"

The fragrant and exquisite fairy plant seemed to be enraged; its enormous flower shook violently, and an even more powerful mental shock suddenly struck.

Xue Di didn't even turn her head. Her body just swelled with a slight chill, and the invisible mental impact was instantly frozen within three feet of her.

She tilted her head slightly, her icy blue eyes looking at Kong Ming'an, without saying a word, only asking for a solution with her eyes.

"Erase consciousness, preserve the body."

Kong Ming'an spoke calmly.

The numerous immortal herbs at the Yin-Yang Well of Ice and Fire are connected to that Tang Buddha, making them all unstable factors.

He naturally wouldn't let such a being, which might be connected to Tang San of the God Realm and could potentially betray him, exist. Erasing its consciousness and preserving its body as material was the best option.

Xue Di understood. She raised her finger and gently touched the fragrant Qiluo Immortal Product.

A faint, almost imperceptible stream of icy blue light flashed by and disappeared into the enormous flower.

Instantly, the swaying and clamoring of the fragrant fairy herb ceased. The vibrant light on its flowers quickly dimmed. Although it still emitted fragrance, it had lost its intelligent and lively feel, becoming no different from the other fairy herbs around it that only possessed instincts.

A moment of silence fell. Kong Ming'an's command and Xue Di's decisive action caused the immortal herbs to tremble slightly, and an uncontrollable fear began to spread.

But the next moment, several different streaks of light rose up, attempting to escape.

However, the Snow Empress's gaze remained unchanged. More streams of icy blue light flew from her fingertips and disappeared into the various shapes and forms of the immortal herbs.

Whether they were already conscious or on the verge of developing consciousness, all the surrounding immortal herbs were swept away by this extreme cold aura, their consciousness utterly destroyed.

Before long, the valley returned to silence, with only the gurgling sound of the Ice and Fire Yin-Yang Spring.

Thus, the Yin-Yang Eye of Ice and Fire changed hands.

Kong Ming'an looked at this uniquely blessed land with satisfaction, then squatted down, channeling his soul power into his fingertips, and inscribed a stable small spatial coordinate on a hard rock not far from the spring.

This is used to establish a permanent spatial gateway to the undead demiplane.

After finishing, he stood up, casually slashed open a gray spatial door beside him, reached out and probed inside, seemingly fumbled around for a moment, and then gently pulled—

A girl wearing a white dress with pink accents, with a tender blue silver grass stem in her mouth, was pulled out of the door by him, looking completely bewildered.

"Eh?"

The girl blinked, her eyes both blank and clear.

After a while, she seemed to realize something, raised her eyes, and looked at Kong Ming'an beside her.

"Meet the president?"

"Long time no see, Xiaoya," Kong Ming'an greeted her with a smile.

The girl in front of me is Tang Ya.

In the original novel, Tang Ya was forced to leave Heaven Dou City after the destruction of the Tang Sect. She then joined Shrek Academy, but ultimately, due to the lack of hope for revenge, she actively triggered the life-devouring characteristic of her martial soul, falling into the trap of becoming an evil soul master.

In this life, however, the other person's fate has changed.

She still joined Shrek Academy, but after confirming that Shrek Academy would not help her take revenge, she received a recruitment offer from the Mingmeng Merchant Guild's "Enlightenment Project".

After investigating and helping her take revenge, Tang Ya has now become the head of his "Blue Silver Grass Cultivation Base".

Blinking her clear eyes, Tang Ya realized something, quickly removed the life-type blue silver grass from her mouth, then stood up straight, looking serious:

"Um, President, are you here to inspect our work? I've already submitted my cultivation efficiency report for this month to Sister Orange! And the new batch of improved Blue Silver Grass is growing very well too!"

"And the hybridization scheme you mentioned earlier with Blue Silver Grass and various herbs, the records of Blue Silver Grass's changes under divine blood cultivation, and the variants like 'Blue Silver Wood' and 'Blue Silver Rice' used as building materials and food—I'm working on all of that, absolutely no slacking off!"

Tang Ya spoke hurriedly, looking like an intern who was slacking off but was suddenly caught off guard by her boss and could only frantically report her recent performance to prove herself.

The strange look that Xue Di gave him made Kong Ming'an chuckle slightly.

He waved his hand, interrupting Tang Ya.

"I didn't ask you to report on your work."

Tang Ya blinked. "Really?"

"real."

"Phew," Tang Ya exhaled softly, patted her chest, and relaxed slightly.

Being suddenly checked by your boss at work is still too scary.

Chapter 59 Mass Production of Immortal Herbs and the Blue Silver Series

"Then why did you suddenly grab me here, Chairman?"

Tang Ya was slightly curious.

Although she hadn't known her student council president for long, she had some understanding of his personality.

One of these points is purposefulness.

At least when it came to her, her savior really didn't have a single other thing to say.

Each time she appeared, it was to inspect the results, then reward her based on those results, and finally assign the next stage of tasks, and so on.

So this time, without even thinking, she knew that her president must have another task for her!

Sure enough, the moment after she asked the question, Kong Ming'an slowly spoke:

"This is your new workplace. All your work from the breeding base will be transferred here."

"Is that so? No problem!"

Tang Ya nodded knowingly. Changing workplaces wasn't unacceptable to her; after all, it didn't matter where she was.

The Tang Clan was destroyed, her parents died, and she joined Shrek Academy seeking revenge, only to be ruthlessly rejected. She would never forget that feeling of despair.

If it weren't for the person in front of her extending a helping hand and guiding her to take revenge, she might have continued living her life in a daze.

Essentially, one's own life belongs to the person in front of them.

Therefore, she might slack off when given orders by her chairman, but she would definitely do her best, as this was the only way she could repay him.

After a moment's thought, she said with a hint of difficulty, "However, transferring some of the previous projects is a bit troublesome, and I may need some time."

"No need to transfer. I'll find someone to help take over those later. What you need to do here is another project."

"another?"

Tang Ya had a bad feeling.

Kong Ming'an smiled kindly. "Your new project is to try cultivating 'Blue Silver Immortal Herb' here."

"..."

Tang Ya paused, slowly typed a "", then held up a finger, pointing at herself with an incredulous expression.

"I?"

……

……

Kong Ming'an always likes to plan ahead. No matter how useful it is, he believes that he can't afford to lose by arranging things in advance.

He initially chose to establish a Blue Silver Grass cultivation base, using Blue Silver Grass as a base for cultivation, precisely because he valued its unparalleled adaptability and vitality.

Although Blue Silver Grass may seem to be similar to the weeds of his previous life, it can inherit superior characteristics to some extent when hybridizing with almost any plant.

For example, if Blue Silver Grass is hybridized with ginseng, a plant with immense vitality, there is a chance of cultivating "Blue Silver Ginseng".

Its medicinal potency is likely only one-tenth or even one-hundredth that of ginseng, but it perfectly inherits the characteristics of Blue Silver Grass: rapid growth, easy reproduction, and difficulty in complete death.

Such "Blue Silver Ginseng" only needs to be cultivated for a few months before it can be harvested.

Simple cultivation methods, low cultivation costs, and exceptionally high harvest quantities.

All these advantages make the "Blue Silver Series" products extremely cost-effective, whether used to make portable rations for the military or as basic medicinal materials.

Of course, the effect of ordinary rare and precious materials, even at only one percent, is only applicable to the lower levels, targeting low-level Soul Masters, lower-level troops, and civilians. It's of little use to high-level Soul Masters.

But what if the target of hybridization is a miraculous herb?

Blue Silver Grass, with only one percent of the potency of the Immortal Herb, may not be as effective as the original, but it's plentiful and filling!

Furthermore, if the Dark Blue Silver Grass cultivated by Tang Ya with the help of her own Martial Soul is used as the main body of the hybridization, and then further enhanced with divine blood, its efficacy can reach about one-tenth or even higher of the original natural treasure!

In addition, with the Ice and Fire Yin-Yang Eye's tenfold growth rate boost to plants, the "Blue Silver Immortal Herb," ​​which could originally be harvested once every hundred days, can now be harvested once every ten days!

Various rare and precious materials that could only be found in special environments have now become possible for mass production!
