Chapter 41: Choosing Immortal Herbs
Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well!
Lu Chen looked at the Immortal Herbs covering the ground and suddenly said, "Big Brother Dugu, among the plants growing in this valley, there are many medicinal materials of the Immortal Herb level. Can I pick them to consume?"
Hearing this, Dugu Bo’s expression turned serious, and he warned sternly, "Little Brother, it is not that this old man is stingy. I have already told you just now that among these medicinal herbs, many are deadly poisonous."
"Even if you have the ability to detoxify, do not rashly touch those herbs. If you happen to touch some deadly poisonous herb, you won’t even have the chance to use your Spirit Ability to detoxify."
Lu Chen explained confidently, "Big Brother Dugu can rest assured. Do you remember me telling you that my Spirit is special and can resonate with plants? It was relying on this ability that I found the vicinity of this valley."
"I can communicate directly with these plants through my Spirit. I can still distinguish which are Immortal Herbs and which are poisonous herbs."
"I will only eat one or two Immortal Herbs; I will absolutely not touch those poisonous herbs. I still cherish my own life very much."
Hearing Lu Chen say this, Dugu Bo was also greatly astonished. There was actually someone who could communicate directly with plants through their Spirit.
Dugu Bo thought to himself, ’I have already seen my Little Brother’s Spirit last time. It is crystal clear and does not look like a plant at all; instead, it resembles jade.’
’The life Aura it emits makes even me feel refreshed. It must undoubtedly be a top-tier plant Spirit, which is why it can communicate with plants.’
’After all, one of my Little Brother’s Spirit Abilities can even neutralize the Jade Phosphor Serpent Poison. This is definitely not something an ordinary Spirit can do.’
Thinking of this, Dugu Bo nodded and agreed, "Since you have this ability, then I won’t worry about you. This old man doesn’t even recognize all the herbs in this valley. As long as you find herbs that are useful to you, feel free to consume them if you want."
"You neutralized the Jade Phosphor Serpent Poison on Yan Yan, and I haven’t properly thanked you yet. A few herbs are nothing; even if they are Immortal Herbs, they are not worth mentioning."
Dugu Bo was very generous, letting Lu Chen pick the Immortal Herbs of the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well.
Lu Chen was all smiles, his heart filled with joy beyond measure. Suddenly, he seemed to think of something and looked at Dugu Bo, saying, "Big Brother Dugu, speaking of Yan Yan, she is still at Heaven Dou Imperial Academy. Do you want to bring Yan Yan here to avoid the limelight too!"
"The two of us ran out of Heaven Dou City under the cover of night. Once those eyes and ears realize it tomorrow, whether it is the Crown Prince of the Heaven Dou Empire, Xue Qinghe, or the Sect Master of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School, Ning Fengzhi, I am afraid they will not let this rest."
"It is very likely that they will turn their attention to Yan Yan. Even if they don’t take action against Yan Yan, they will definitely monitor her closely, hoping to find our whereabouts through her. In that case, Yan Yan will be in danger."
"Taking advantage of the fact that the news hasn’t been passed back yet, picking up Yan Yan as soon as possible can also avoid certain bad things from happening."
Dugu Bo’s complexion changed instantly. A monstrous Aura erupted from his body. Dugu Yan was Dugu Bo’s only living relative in the world. If anyone dared to touch Dugu Yan, Dugu Bo would fight them to the death.
Hearing Lu Chen’s speculation, Dugu Bo’s expression showed a trace of ferocity, and he said sternly, "Let’s see who dares to touch my granddaughter. I will definitely fight them to the death!"
For the sake of Dugu Bo and himself, Lu Chen could not let Dugu Yan stay outside alone, so he added more fuel to the fire, "Big Brother Dugu, it’s better to be safe than sorry. What if the people from the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School cannot find our tracks? To make up for their faults and avoid punishment, they might go to Heaven Dou Imperial Academy to monitor Yan Yan, or even capture her. We have to be on guard."
Lu Chen’s words became the last straw that broke the camel’s back. Dugu Bo would not watch Dugu Yan suffer even the slightest accident.
His expression became firm, and he finally made up his mind, saying, "Little Brother, be careful in this valley yourself. I will take advantage of the fact that it is not yet dawn to rush to Heaven Dou Imperial Academy and bring Yan Yan over."
"You are right, it is better to be safe than sorry. I cannot gamble with Yan Yan; she is my only precious granddaughter."
"For a short time, we will avoid the limelight first. Wait until you break through to the seventieth level of spirit power and hunt a Spirit Beast to obtain your Seventh Spirit Ring."
"With your assistance, I should have the power to fight against Sword Douluo and Bone Douluo of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School. At that time, there will be no need to hide."
After these words fell, Dugu Bo hurriedly soared into the sky. As his figure flashed rapidly, he left the valley in a few breaths and rushed towards Heaven Dou Imperial Academy.
After Dugu Bo left, only Lu Chen remained in the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well. He turned around and looked at the vast Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well, his eyes shining.
"Blue Silver Domain!"
Lu Chen activated the Blue Silver Domain. An invisible fluctuation spread rapidly with him as the center, quickly covering the entire Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well.
In an instant, in this Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well, all kinds of Immortal Herbs swayed their bodies within the Blue Silver Domain, swallowing and refining the life Aura attached to the Blue Silver Domain.
Threads of faint consciousness were transmitted to Lu Chen’s mind through the network of the Blue Silver Domain. He listened to the voice of every Immortal Herb.
Every Immortal Herb in this Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well was no less than a ten-thousand-year Spirit Beast. Unfortunately, due to their body structure, the process of them developing consciousness was extremely difficult.
Lu Chen listened to the voices of these Immortal Herbs through the Blue Silver Domain and discovered that the consciousness of these Immortal Herbs was simply like that of a three-year-old child.
Ignorant and very pure!
Because of the life Aura attached to Lu Chen’s Blue Silver Domain, these Immortal Herbs had a very good impression of Lu Chen.
Under Lu Chen’s intentional questioning, these Immortal Herbs quickly confessed everything they needed to.
What were their names?
What kind of medicinal properties did they have?
Precautions for picking?
Precautions for taking them?
...
A series of information, such as this, was quickly mastered by Lu Chen.
Octagonal Mysterious Ice Grass!
fiery apricot delicate flower!
Youxiang Qiluo Immortal Herb!
Qirong Tongtian Chrysanthemum!
Eight-Petal Immortal Orchid!
Qiluo Tulip!
Cockscomb Phoenix Sunflower!
narcissus jade muscle bone!
Yearning Heartbroken Red!
looking-through-autumn-water dew!
Dragon Origin Fruit!
Hunyuan Immortal Herb!
...
The number of Immortal Herbs in this Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well exceeded Lu Chen’s imagination. When he read the book in his previous life, the Immortal Herbs he knew were only a part of them.
There were even more Immortal Herbs that were not introduced too much in the original plot.
Thanks to having already awakened the Blue Silver Domain, Lu Chen could directly communicate with these Immortal Herbs through the Blue Silver Domain to know their names and medicinal properties.
Lu Chen looked at these numerous Immortal Herbs, and gradually became a bit dazzled. For a moment, he didn’t know which Immortal Herb to eat.
’If I want to quickly increase my spirit power, I could eat the Hunyuan Immortal Herb. But with my Golden Finger where I get stronger just by breathing, I don’t need Immortal Herbs to increase my spirit power.’
’If I want to evolve my Spirit and improve its toughness, I could eat the Ink Jade Divine Bamboo, but my Blue Silver King Spirit is inclined towards support rather than combat, so improving the Spirit’s toughness is really not very suitable.’
’Currently, the most important thing for me is to absorb the Seventh Spirit Ring. That is the key to unlocking the Martial Soul Avatar. And the Seventh Spirit Ring I have reserved is that 85,000-year-old Blue Silver King in the Blue Silver Forest.’
’Only the Ninth spirit ring of some Titled Douluo would absorb an 85,000-year-old spirit ring. If I want to absorb an 85,000-year-old spirit ring as my Seventh Spirit Ring, physical fitness and Soul strength are extremely critical issues.’
’It seems I cannot afford to be picky. I will consume the Octagonal Mysterious Ice Grass and the fiery apricot delicate flower, use the power of water and fire to forge a Vajra Body, and then take the looking-through-autumn-water dew to greatly increase my mental force.’
’With these two prerequisites, I will have absolute certainty in successfully absorbing the 85,000-year-old spirit ring of the Blue Silver King.’
’If nothing goes wrong, I will obtain a most perfect Martial Soul Avatar ability, and even promote the evolution of my Spirit again, allowing my Blue Silver King Spirit to evolve into a true Blue Silver Emperor Martial Soul...’
