Follow Dugu Bo inside.
The scene before Zhou Sidong's eyes opened them wide!
In front of him was a small hot spring. The spring was divided in two, one half red and the other milky white. They didn't mix, clearly separated, each in its own half of the oval pool.
The steam rising around the valley came from the pool.
Around the pool grew all sorts of herbs. Some resembled the sun, some were embedded in the rocks, and some shone as brightly as the stars in the sky.
Zhou Sidong was stunned by the sight. So this was the Ice and Fire Yin-Yang Eye. It truly deserved to be called a "treasure land."
He had heard Xiao Xue talk about it many times before, and now, finally seeing it, he couldn't help but feel moved.
The environment here was harsh, perhaps only someone like Dugu Bo, with his body full of poison, could live here.
Someone like Zhou Sidong, who had taken many medicinal herbs since childhood and had slightly better physical qualities than the average person, could only barely stay here for a short while.
"Zhou boy, do you know why Yan Yan doesn't want to come in?"
Suddenly, Dugu Bo posed a question.
"Is it because of the environment here?"
Zhou Sidong walked around the Ice and Fire Yin-Yang Eye, often squatting down to touch the immortal-grade herbs.
"You're right. The environment here has indeed helped this old man a great deal to become a Title Douluo."
Dugu Bo could see that Zhou Sidong was very interested in his place, especially the unknown herbs growing here.
Dugu Bo had studied these herbs, but after all these years, he still couldn't figure them out.
Thinking of this, a trace of a smile appeared on Dugu Bo's lips.
"Zhou boy, do you still remember the three conditions you're owed by this old man?"
Dugu Bo's words made Zhou Sidong stop what he was doing.
"Senior Dugu, what do you mean by that?"
Zhou Sidong asked, raising an eyebrow.
"You've also seen it, this old man's place is practically barren, there's nothing worth looking at. Aside from the inaccessible hot spring in the center, only the herbs growing here have some value. How about this, I'll give you the herbs here in exchange for the first condition, what do you think?"
City Bo's words startled Zhou Sidong.
Zhou Sidong slowly stood up, gazing at the places he had passed and the medicinal herbs within sight. Dugu Bo actually said this place was nothing to look at?
Good heavens!
What a waste!
Occupying such a treasure trove, and with a massive quantity of immortal-grade herbs.
Zhou Sidong shook his head inwardly and gave Dugu Bo a thumbs-up.
It was truly like someone offering you a pillow when you were already feeling sleepy.
Zhou Sidong had been wondering what excuse to use to trick Dugu Bo. Now, it was perfect; he didn't even need to say a word, and Dugu Bo had already delivered the immortal-grade herbs right to his doorstep.
"Alright."
Zhou Sidong nodded lightly.
Just as he wanted, he shouldn't refuse if it was offered.
"That's great!"
Dugu Bo breathed a sigh of relief. He'd been worried the young Zhou wouldn't agree.
Dugu Bo was solitary by nature, rarely interacting with others, and disliked owing favors.
Now, he owed Zhou Sidong three! Three!
There was no help for it. Zhou Sidong had saved his life; this favor, Dugu Bo would repay no matter what.
Now that one condition was fulfilled, Dugu Bo was immediately more relaxed.
"Hurry up and take what you want," Dugu Bo urged.
"Mm."
Zhou Sidong nodded, silently thinking, Xiao Xue, you saw that, didn't you?
"I see them! I see them!"
Xiao Xue's voice echoed in Zhou Sidong's mind.
"Take all the Aromatic Silk Beauty, Lovesick Heartbreak Red, Singular Velvet Sky Chrysanthemum... take them all! Don't leave any for Tang San."
Following Xiao Xue's instructions, Zhou Sidong picked all the immortal herbs that Tang San had taken before. Under Dugu Bo's watchful eye, he placed them into the Soul Tool on his back.
In reality, Xiao Xue had transferred all these immortal herbs to her own exclusive space.
In an instant, the once-lush Ice and Fire Yin-Yang Eye became barren, leaving only some immature herbs that were still growing. Zhou Sidong didn't collect these since they weren't of much use.
"Are you done searching?"
Dugu Bo asked.
However, Zhou Sidong ignored Dugu Bo and walked straight towards the Ice and Fire Yin-Yang Eye hot spring.
"Zhou boy, are you crazy! You can't go there!"
Dugu Bo was alarmed when he saw Zhou Sidong heading that way.
The hot spring had two properties: extreme heat and extreme cold. If one got too close, they would either be burned to ashes by the flames or frozen solid by the freezing air. Even Dugu Bo didn't dare to approach it easily.
But Zhou Sidong acted as if the hot spring wasn't even there.
As Zhou Sidong got closer to the hot spring, he could clearly feel the surrounding temperature rising, even distorting the air.
Zhou Sidong's right leg flashed with blue light, and his arms transformed into two green spears. His target wasn't the water, but the Infernal Delicate Apricot and the Octagonal Mysterious Ice Grass growing in the center of the spring.
Under Dugu Bo's gaze, Zhou Sidong leaped. Using the Blue Silver Emperor's right leg bone's flight skill, Zhou Sidong's body passed above the water, and he casually picked the two immortal herbs.
He landed steadily.
Zhou Sidong breathed a sigh of relief. One of his hands was burning with pain, while the other constantly radiated cold.
He placed the two medicinal herbs on the ground, not daring to handle them directly.
Although Xiao Xue had isolated most of the heat and cold from the hot spring, Zhou Sidong still suffered burns and frostbite, but it wasn't serious.
"You little brat! You're not afraid of death! Even I don't dare to step in there easily."
Seeing that Zhou Sidong was unharmed, Dugu Bo secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
He had heard that Zhou Sidong was an orphan, and that his current parents weren't his real parents.
According to the information Dugu Bo had gathered, Zhou Sidong's adoptive parents had dug him out of a grave. Furthermore, to have cultivated to level thirty-one in such a short time, in Dugu Bo's eyes, was clearly far beyond what was normal.
This also indirectly hinted that Zhou Sidong had an extraordinary background and outstanding talent.
"Thank you for your concern, Senior Dugu. This junior is fortunate and has suffered no major injuries."
Zhou Sidong didn't hesitate, quickly taking the two herbs in his hands.
"You really are..."
Dugu Bo was speechless, watching with his own eyes as Zhou Sidong swallowed the two herbs.
Zhou Sidong swallowed herbs that even he didn't know about. If he died, Dugu Bo couldn't be blamed. He had already explained the risks involved.
"Don't worry, Senior Dugu. I once read about these two herbs in an ancient book. They are the Infernal Delicate Apricot and the Octagonal Mysterious Ice Grass. Their effects can make one immune to fire and water, and also immune to all poisons. They are the best choice for strengthening oneself."
Zhou Sidong waved to Dugu Bo, then leaped into the pool.
A head popped out, and Zhou Sidong gulped down some spring water along the way. The taste was truly awful.
"Senior Dugu, this junior has been traveling from Notting City to Heaven Dou City and hasn't had a bath in ages. I'll wash up first. Call me if you need anything."
After saying that, Zhou Sidong plunged in.
Dugu Bo was left speechless by this sight, his mouth hanging wide open! It stayed that way for a long time.
