Chapter 20: Yin-Yang Eyes of Ice and Fire!
The eastern region of the Tiandou Empire is where the Sunset Forest is located. Although the vast forest area is not as large as the Star Dou Great Forest, it is still a behemoth compared to the so-called Soul Hunting Forest.
Qian Daoliu was known as the number one man in the sky, so with him leading the way, their speed was naturally impeccable, but the two of them had already been strolling here for quite a while.
This made Qian Daoliu feel very strange, because Qin Zhuo was not looking for a soul beast at all, but seemed to be looking for a place.
"Xiao Zhuo, what are you looking for? There shouldn't be anything special in this forest, right?"
Stopping, Qian Daoliu looked at the miasma filling the air and asked the questions in his heart.
"Uncle, you're right, there are indeed special places here, but I didn't expect it to be so hard to find."
Qin Zhuo sighed. He had thought that the Yin-Yang Eyes of Ice and Fire would be easy to find, but after arriving at the Sunset Forest, he realized that it was no different from looking for a needle in a haystack!
How much space can a small valley take up? Besides, Sunset Forest is not a small forest...
But think about it, if it was really that easy to find, a unique sight like the Yin-Yang Eyes of Ice and Fire would not be unknown on the mainland.
After all, it is one of the so-called three treasure chests! Yin-Yang Eyes of Ice and Fire, Qiankun Dog Training Valley, what else have I forgotten...
"Sunset Forest... I've never heard of any strange places like that. How did you get this information?"
Qian Daoliu tried hard to recall but could not find any record about this. In comparison, he was somewhat curious as to why Qin Zhuo, a little fellow who had hardly ever left Spirit City, had such a clear goal.
"I saw a Titled Douluo's notes in the Spirit Hall's files. It recorded a place he visited in the Sunset Forest. There, ice and fire collided, which is very rare! This description is very similar to the Yin-Yang Eyes of Ice and Fire I saw in another scroll. I thought I'd use the ice and fire to temper my body before absorbing the spirit ring."
Okay! After holding it in for so long, I finally came up with a decent excuse. I just don't know if I can fool Qian Daoliu, the Ultimate Douluo.
"Yin-Yang Eyes of Ice and Fire? Does such a place exist?"
Qian Daoliu pondered for a moment, wondering what those people in the Spirit Hall were doing now! Didn't they investigate and verify the included documents?
"Master, please pay attention to the place where the miasma gathers. Ice and fire counteract each other, and when they collide, they will definitely form a concentrated airflow."
Qin Zhuo was too lazy to argue with Qian Daoliu. There was no way to verify the notebook anyway. If they really asked, he would just say that it might have been destroyed.
"If I had known you were in such trouble, I would have gone to Tiandou City to see Xiaoxue first. Really..."
Qian Daoliu said unhappily, pulling Qin Zhuo up to the sky and carefully examining the situation below.
Fortunately, Qin Zhuo's search was not random. He followed the concentration of miasma along the way, so the miasma around them was now very obvious. The next step should be to find the place where the miasma gathered.
It didn't take long for the two of them to arrive at a place where the poisonous miasma was almost condensed into substance. For safety reasons, Qian Daoliu had raised a soul power barrier.
After all, Qin Zhuo is only a second-ring great soul master. If he encounters the poisonous gas in this place, he will probably roll his eyes.
"The concentration of poison gas here is a bit abnormal. Xiao Zhuo, don't stay too far away from me."
As Qian Daoliu spoke, he used his strong soul power to drive away the miasma and forced his way out.
"Don't worry, sir. My domain is open and I won't let the poison gas get close to me."
Qin Zhuo still values his life very much. Poison is a treacherous and cunning thing, and he must be extremely vigilant when facing it.
After passing through the poisonous fog, the space inside became wider. The two extreme auras, one cold and one hot, intertwined with each other, making the environment here not only not extreme, but instead having a moderate and peaceful feeling.
"This... is the Yin-Yang Eyes of Ice and Fire? Two extreme energies converge together... There really is such a place!"
Although Qian Daoliu was not very surprised to see the red and blue springs converge together, he was still a little surprised that the place Qin Zhuo saw in the notebook really existed. After all, he thought that Qin Zhuo had seen something made up by others.
"Master, look at that chrysanthemum. Isn't it the same as the Chrysanthemum Douluo Martial Spirit in the Elder Hall?"
Qin Zhuo attracted Qian Daoliu's attention. Although the old poisonous creature Dugu Bo could not recognize all the magical herbs here, it did not mean that others did not recognize them.
Take the example of Guan Yue knowing about the Qirong Tongtianju and Yang Wudi knowing about the Youxiang Qiluo fairy product. There are still people on the mainland who know about some fairy herbs, and you can't be sure that the gentleman next to you knows them.
If I knew him, I wouldn't have to make up reasons to convince these guys.
"It really is the Qirong Tongtian Chrysanthemum! This is a good thing! It can strengthen the body, which is suitable for you to continue strengthening your body."
Unfortunately, Qin Zhuo's idea failed. It was true that Qian Daoliu knew chrysanthemum, but he only knew chrysanthemum. He didn't even pay attention to the magical grass around chrysanthemum!
It seems that I still have to use my little brain to make up stories. It's really... so annoying!
"We can talk about this later. I'm going to the Ice and Fire Body Refining Center first. If you don't want to wait, you can go to Tiandou City to see Sister Xue'er first, and then come pick me up."
If you don't know me, then don't know me! Let's finish the body training first. Anyway, I have to pack up these immortal herbs and take them away. I don't mind this little time.
"Body training! Wait! You said you wanted to use these two springs to train your body? If you want to die, just say so. A slap from me would be more comfortable than this."
When he heard about body training, Qian Daoliu remembered what this kid came here for, and his face immediately turned dark.
This red and blue spring water is almost at the extreme in terms of hotness and coldness. If it weren't for the mutual restraint, Sunset Forest would have been gone long ago. Using this thing for physical training, isn't that simply seeking death?
Even I, a Limit Douluo, felt threatened by these two kinds of springs. You, a second-ring Great Soul Master, will be turned into ice chips or ashes if you touch them.
"Uh! I don't really want to die that much... Sir, their properties counteract each other. All I need to do is find a balance. The wonders here are the best proof! And look, that red flower and blue grass grow right at the source of the two springs, which shows that their properties are similar to those of the two springs. I can eat them and then use the spring water to refine my body, so there won't be any problems."
Qin Zhuo had another headache. He thought of many situations, and even considered the possibility of running into Dugu Bo, but he never thought that the old man next to him would become an obstacle.
"That's true, but it's too risky! I don't know why you're trying so hard to become stronger, but is strength that important? Even if strength is important to you, we don't have to use this method to gain strength! Your body is already very strong, and there will be no problem absorbing the Ten Thousand Year Spirit Ring, so..."
"So I'm going to do it anyway!"
Qin Zhuo interrupted Qian Daoliu directly.
"Even if you stop me this time, I will come again. You can't stop me forever! Strength is not the most important thing to me, but I have my reasons to become stronger. I don't want to be helpless when encountering something again."
Qin Zhuo looked into Qian Daoliu's eyes and said seriously.
He had no way of telling Qian Daoliu about the future, nor could he tell him that there would be gods intervening in the affairs of the continent, and he had no way of telling him that he was making plans for the future. He could only use his own determination to convince the old man in front of him.
