"After my Martial Soul manifests, I can see the meridians in the human body," Dai Weisi said solemnly, fabricating the most absurd statement.
"And if Senior is able to remove the toxins from Miss Dugu Yan's body, you wouldn't have traveled so far to the Star Luo Empire to find me, right? You even waited for me here at the Star Luo Palace for a whole week."
"Sigh, Old Brother Tianxing really has a wonderful grandson! Not only does he have exceptional talent, but he's also incredibly clever," Dugu Bo sighed, then nodded in acknowledgment. "Indeed, I came to the Star Luo Empire to ask you if there's any way to rid me and Yan Yan of the toxins in our bodies.
Although it may seem like I'm grasping at straws, I've truly run out of options. I, who am known as the Poison Douluo, renowned for my unparalleled poison skills, have no solution for the poison in my own body.
Yan Yan told me you recognized her poisoning at a glance, so I came to ask if you might have a method to cure the poison for both of us."
Dai Weisi, of course, had a solution, but in order to avoid making Dugu Bo suspicious, he maintained a serious expression and asked, "To solve Senior's poison, I first need to understand how it was contracted.
From what I can tell, Senior and Miss Dugu Yan are afflicted by the same toxin. Could it be that this toxin is hereditary?"
Dugu Bo's eyes lit up. Being able to immediately identify that they shared the same toxin, Dai Weisi was already showing skills worthy of a healer.
"You're right. The poison in both my and Yan Yan's bodies is from the Green Phosphorus Snake's toxin. This lethal toxin comes from the Martial Soul's source. Any soul master who awakens the Green Phosphorus Snake Martial Soul will gradually have the toxin seep into their body.
As the soul master's strength increases, the toxin becomes more potent, and its harm grows. Over time, a Green Phosphorus Snake soul master will die.
I can still barely suppress the toxicity in my body with my soul power, but Yan Yan is still young, and I fear the poison in her may explode. She might not be able to suppress it on her own, which is why I came to you. I wanted to ask if you know of any solution."
"Hmm..."
Dai Weisi deliberately took a moment to act reserved, appearing contemplative as he carefully studied Dugu Bo's expression. Only when Dugu Bo showed signs of impatience did he speak in a deep tone.
"In my opinion, Senior's poison is not incurable."
Upon hearing this, Dugu Bo's eyes gleamed with excitement, and he quickly asked, "Oh? What do you mean?"
"Senior must know that every toxin has a way to be cured. The key is to find the right antidote.
The poison you've been afflicted with is a particularly potent one from the Martial Soul source, so ordinary herbs won't do. You'll need to find an immortal-grade herb!"
Dai Weisi was carefully leading Dugu Bo toward the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Eyes. As long as Dugu Bo suggested taking him there, Dai Weisi could use this opportunity to give him the ten-thousand-year-old poison compress.
The Ice and Fire Yin Yang Eyes were too secretive. Dai Weisi only knew they were located in the Sunset Forest, and the exact location was known only to Dugu Bo.
Therefore, Dai Weisi couldn't bring it up himself—Dugu Bo had to suggest it first.
"Immortal-grade herbs... Finding such legendary herbs is no easy task. Is there no other way?" Dugu Bo said, shaking his head in frustration.
Seeing that Dugu Bo hadn't yet thought of the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Eyes, Dai Weisi rolled his eyes. The immortal herb was almost within his grasp, and he couldn't let it slip away easily!
As he was contemplating how to guide Dugu Bo to the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Eyes, an idea suddenly flashed in his mind, and he said, "Using ordinary herbs isn't impossible, but we'll need to find a place that can suppress your poison.
The potency of regular herbs is simply too weak, but only in a place filled with extraordinary natural energies can they gradually help alleviate your poison."
"A place that can suppress the poison..." Dugu Bo's eyes lit up with excitement. "Young one, I actually know of such a place. I must confess, over these years, I've been trying to find a way to rid myself of this poison, but to no avail.
However, by sheer coincidence, I found a place. The area is filled with violent natural energy, with both extreme cold and heat, constantly intertwining, creating a yin-yang effect. By using the natural energies there, I might be able to suppress the poison within me.
Moreover, there are many herbs I don't recognize in that place, and they look incredibly strange. The toxins from them are so potent that even I dare not touch them."
Dai Weisi's eyes lit up. "That's it! With the help of the natural energies there, we might just find a way to eliminate Senior's deadly poison!"
Dai Weisi felt an overwhelming sense of excitement bubbling within him. Immortal herbs! Immortal herbs! I've finally arrived!
Bajiao Xuanbing Grass, Qirong Tongtian Chrysanthemum, Wangchuan Qiushui Dew, and Liehuo Xingjiao Shu—these immortal herbs would be his! Without these, even if Tang San had the Shura God's favor, he would never pose a threat to him.
"Since that's the case, then please, young friend, come with me. I wonder if you are willing?" Dugu Bo asked.
"I am certainly willing," Dai Weisi smiled. The immortal herbs were practically handed to him on a silver platter—how could he miss out on such an opportunity?
"I have some knowledge of herbs, and I'd like to see the strange herbs in your possession, Senior."
"Well then, let's go. But I'm not sure if your grandparents will allow you to leave with me," Dugu Bo said, half-teasing.
"Senior, please don't worry. I will explain the situation to them," Dai Weisi assured him.
Sure enough, when Dugu Bo suggested taking Dai Weisi with him, he was met with unanimous opposition from Dai Weisi's family, especially from Dai Pojun. However, after Dai Weisi explained that helping Dugu Bo would earn the friendship of a Titled Douluo, which could prove invaluable if the Star Luo Empire faced difficulties in the future, Dai Pojun hesitated.
The favor of a Titled Douluo was an incredibly rare and precious thing, and after some convincing, Dai Pojun reluctantly agreed to let Dai Weisi go, but with the condition that Dugu Bo would ensure Dai Weisi's safety.
"Alright, Senior. I've convinced my elders. We can go now," Dai Weisi said.
"Good, there's no time to waste. We won't take the carriage," Dugu Bo said, and in the blink of an eye, he grabbed Dai Weisi by the collar and flew toward the direction of the Sunset Forest.
...
Ten days later, the old man and the young boy arrived above the Sunset Forest, heading towards the center of the forest. In less than an hour, they reached the skies above the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Eyes, and the intense spiritual energy hit them immediately.
The Ice and Fire Yin Yang Eyes were situated beneath a sheer cliff, surrounded by towering mountains, and the area was so remote that no one had discovered this treasure trove for years.
Before the mountains, a thick, dark green poisonous mist lingered ominously—this was Dugu Bo's poison formation. Once anyone entered the formation without understanding the poison, even a powerful Soul Master would certainly perish.
"This is my herb garden. You need to be careful—this spiritual energy might hurt you," Dugu Bo warned.
"I understand!" Dai Weisi replied confidently.
After Dugu Bo descended with him, Dai Weisi finally set foot on the ground of the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Eyes. He looked at the two opposite springs with excitement, and on either side, he saw two types of immortal-grade herbs: Bajiao Xuanbing Grass and Liehuo Xingjiao Shu!
Dai Weisi's heart raced with anticipation.
Finally! The immortal herbs are in my grasp!
