Douluo Continent: Starting from Awakening the Vermilion Bird Martial Soul

However, there are quite a few peaks in the Sunset Forest, and searching for them one by one would be too time-consuming. But he has his own advantage, which is that he is very sensitive to fire elements. If the fire element is abundant in a place, he can easily sense it.

The Yin-Yang Spring of Ice and Fire has both Yang Spring and Yin Spring, so the fire element must be very strong. Moreover, there is a sulfur smell near the Yin-Yang Spring of Ice and Fire. As long as you follow these signs, you won't waste too much time.

After resting for a night, he set off the next day to begin his search in the forest.

The search was conducted in a very low-key manner. Although some soul beasts were alerted, he drove them away. Since there was no need to obtain a soul ring, he had no reason to kill these soul beasts. Indiscriminate killing would only lead to a further scarcity of soul beasts.

Of course, he wasn't some pushover. He just didn't want to cause unnecessary trouble. There were quite a few ancient soul beasts in Sunset Forest. With his level 50-something soul power, he could handle them, but it would waste a lot of time and he would be more likely to get injured.

He's all alone here now, and if he gets injured, it could cause a lot of trouble.

He spent the entire morning traversing the various peaks within the Sunset Forest. Since the Ice and Fire Yin-Yang Eye had remained undiscovered for so long, it must have been hidden in a very secretive place, perhaps so secret that few people ever went there.

After searching all day, he finally found a place in the afternoon where the fire element was extremely concentrated.

Standing atop a mountain peak about 500 meters high, below lies a dense forest, so dense that it is impossible to see anything with the naked eye. Behind me is a rugged mountain path, steep and difficult to traverse, formed naturally rather than by human intervention.

"It should be right here."

When he was searching before, he sensed a strong fire element in the vicinity, which was even stronger than the volcano where he had been cultivating.

Therefore, he could basically conclude that the Ice and Fire Yin-Yang Eye was nearby, and that it was very well hidden, and that the mountain he was on was not something that could be climbed easily.

Most importantly, there is a cave behind him. If nothing unexpected happens, this cave should be Dugu Bo's future villa. However, for now, this cave is just a cave and has nothing else, let alone many medicinal herbs.

He turned and headed up the mountain. Although the mountain path was rugged, it posed no obstacle to him; the steep peaks could not stop him.

As you climb higher, you can see many medicinal herbs. They are just ordinary herbs, but they grow very well and their medicinal properties are stronger than those of herbs from other places.

After taking a quick look, it seems that Di Hong was not entirely certain before, but now it is certain that the Ice and Fire Yin-Yang Well is located here.

Sure enough, he hadn't walked far when he smelled sulfur.

This excited him greatly, and he quickened his pace considerably.

Upon reaching the mountaintop, he immediately discovered a valley surrounded by towering trees. He activated his Di Hong Martial Soul and flew into the air to observe.

"really."

These large trees blocked the view below, making it impossible to see what was happening below even from above. However, the place wasn't entirely hidden, as a thick mist obscured the view below.

Looking at the mist below, Di Hong burst into laughter with excitement.

"Hahahahaha."

"Finally found."

"The Eye of Ice and Fire".

He was already quite impatient and entered the valley.

A small hot spring came into view. The hot spring pool was divided into two parts, one half milky white and the other half vermilion, like a hot pot with two separate broths. A stream of steam rose from the hot spring.

All around were various kinds of medicinal herbs.

Looking at the hot spring in front of him, Di Hong trembled slightly with excitement.

"One eye gives rise to the other, two elements counteract each other."

Feeling the extremely dense fire element in the air, this place, which would be deadly for others, was an excellent place for him to cultivate. However, there was also an extremely cold element here, which was not a good thing for his cultivation.

Just to be on the safe side, he covered his entire body with the fire, and then he walked to the edge of the hot spring.

After calming his excitement, he stared intently at the hot spring in front of him.

In my previous life, when I was online, I learned that the Yin-Yang Well of Ice and Fire was formed because the Water Dragon King and Fire Dragon King of the God Realm fell here, meaning that the remains of the Water and Fire Dragon Kings are located beneath this hot spring.

He hadn't read the novel, only seen the anime and part of the manga. Even so, he was well aware that the remains left behind by the fallen dragon were valuable, perhaps even useful for forging weapons.

He believed that weapons forged from dragon bones, tempered by his Vermilion Bird Fire, would be no less powerful than divine artifacts.

However, he dared not go down now; entering the Ice and Fire Yin-Yang Well now would be tantamount to courting death.

Looking around, he indeed found many rare medicinal herbs. After six years of study and his memories from his previous life, he was able to basically understand the effects of the herbs here.

The plants here are all precious, even rare treasures.

"Oh, that's the advantage of time travel early. No one will rob you, and you won't leave behind a reputation as a robber."

Now that he discovered the Yin-Yang Well of Ice and Fire first, it naturally belongs to him. Whoever discovers the unclaimed land first gets to keep it.

As for Dugu Bo, I'm not familiar with him; I've never even met him since I transmigrated here.

Not far from the milky white hot spring, he saw something that looked like a small insect.

"This is the snow silkworm, the finest of cordyceps."

There wasn't just one snow silkworm, but a small patch of them. He also recognized the plant next to the snow silkworm: the Cinnabar Lotus.

The more he looked, the more excited he became. There were so many rare and precious materials here: the rare and precious Chrysanthemum, the eight-petaled fairy orchid, the nine-grade purple fungus, and even the cockscomb phoenix sunflower.

Of these, the Cockscomb Phoenix Sunflower was undoubtedly the most suitable for him, but he had no intention of taking it.

Firstly, given his talent, there was no need for him to take it. Secondly, he wanted to give it to Di Yuan to see if it could help him advance further. If Di Yuan took the Cockscomb Phoenix Sunflower, he might have a chance to break through to the Title Douluo level. Thirdly, his Vermilion Bird Martial Soul and Flame were already very pure, so he didn't need to take these.

He was dazzled by the variety of herbs surrounding the hot spring.

Chapter 24 Taking grass jelly

After circling around, he set his gaze on a fiery red herb, resembling a cabbage, beside the Yangquan Spring of the Ice and Fire Yin-Yang Eye.

"The Fiery Apricot is delicate and sparse."

This celestial herb is his true target, while the opposite of it is the Eight-Cornered Mystic Ice Grass.

Both of these herbs are highly poisonous, but if taken together, they can neutralize each other. In fact, he could also choose to take the Fiery Apricot Blossom alone, even though it is a highly poisonous plant containing top-level fire poison.

However, the fire poison was not enough to deal with his Vermilion Bird Fire.

Its Vermilion Bird Fire can purify all poisons in the world; poison has no effect on it.

However, he also wanted to try it out and see if taking these two kinds of medicinal herbs at the same time would have any other benefits for him.

He took out a jade shovel from his soul tool. He had made ample preparations for the Ice and Fire Yin-Yang Eye. He slowly approached the Fiery Apricot Tree, whose scorching heat tried to erode his body, but these auras were blocked by the Vermilion Bird Flame around Di Hong.

He crouched down and gently dug out the fiery apricot blossoms, but he didn't uproot them completely; he couldn't do something as short-sighted as killing the goose that lays the golden eggs.

After digging out the Fiery Apricot Blossom, Di Hong took it directly into his hand. With the protection of the Li Huo (a type of fire), he was not afraid of it.

Next, he walked towards the eight-cornered ice grass opposite him. This time it was not so smooth. Although his fire could resist the extreme cold, it could only resist a part of it at present. His current strength was still too weak.

Even the most powerful martial spirit needs to be matched with its strength. Fortunately, he was holding the Fiery Apricot Blossom, which prevented the extreme cold poison from penetrating his body.

He didn't have much time, only ten breaths, otherwise the herbs' effects would wear off.

Three breaths have passed now.

After taking out the dagger and removing the Eight-Cornered Mystic Ice Grass, he immediately found a stone platform, sat down cross-legged, and began to consume it.

After swallowing the two herbs in large gulps, Di Hong smacked his lips a few times.

"It's quite sweet; as expected, most poisonous things taste good."

Then he took off his shirt, untied the soul tool from his waist and placed it in a container to wait for the medicine to take effect. It was already quite risky for him to take two immortal herbs, especially the Eight-Cornered Mystic Ice Grass. He had a pure fire attribute martial soul, but he had taken something extremely cold.

Although it was risky, he was confident in his martial spirit.

If even this can't be solved, then Suzaku is truly useless.

Soon, the effects of the medicine took hold, and Di Hong's body trembled violently. He immediately circulated his soul power to suppress it, and his skin emitted a red and blue hue. Because of the intense pain, his handsome face was contorted.

Suppressing the effects of the medicine, he recalled what Tang San had done, then got up and jumped into the confluence of the springs.

After he was completely submerged in the spring, the pain lessened considerably, as ice and fire counteract each other.

At this moment, his body was being baptized by two massive energies of ice and fire. The fire was alright, but the baptism of ice was a bit unpleasant, though most of it was suppressed by the fire.

Beneath the spring, Di Hong sensed an incredibly rich concentration of fire element. The fire element here was equivalent to at least a hundred volcanoes, making it probably the best place for him to cultivate.

Two violent energies impacted his eight extraordinary meridians. He circulated his soul power to protect his meridians from damage, lest he absorb all the herbs and leave irreversible damage to his meridians, which would be disastrous.

With the two energies neutralized and the suppression from the soul power and the fire, he quickly adapted.

He adjusted his body and mobilized his soul power to form a fiery red shield around himself. Then, he began to absorb the two energies while cultivating. Time passed by, minute by minute.

The night sky outside gradually darkened, and darkness once again enveloped the earth. Di Hong, beneath the spring, was now in a state of self-forgetfulness. Beneath the spring was an endless darkness, and he had no concept of time.

However, he didn't need to worry about his own safety. Ordinary people and soul masters couldn't find the Ice and Fire Yin-Yang Well, and even if they did, they would just be throwing their lives away.

As for Soul Masters at the Title Douluo level, who would be so bored as to come here?

Within the Haotian Sect.

Looking at the sect disciples cultivating in the training ground, Tang Yuehua sat on the stone steps, resting her chin on her hand as she watched them, but her mind was not on them at all.

"Little sister, what are you thinking about?" A voice sounded from behind her.

Coming to her senses, Tang Yuehua turned around and saw a young man in gray clothes with short hair walking towards her.

"Second Brother." Tang Yuehua called out, then continued to stare blankly.

The second brother she mentioned is Tang Hao, the most outstanding disciple of the younger generation of the Haotian Sect, who is hailed as a once-in-a-century genius in the sect.

Sitting down next to Tang Yuehua with a smile, Tang Hao said, "Let your second brother guess, you must be thinking about someone right now, right?"
