The fifth spirit ring's ice-fire Fusion skill is named Heaven and Earth Stele: Beacon Fire Eternal Suppression.
The frost net forms the heavenly snare, the flame banner buries the earth; the energies of the Ice and Fire Twin Fish interweave, condensing in mid-air into a translucent stele carved with twin fish, which descends with unstoppable force.
The effect of the Spirit Ability is simple, yet its power is immense, abandoning all added effects and converting them into pure offensive might.
In a deserted place, Yu Yan once used Heaven and Earth Stele: Beacon Fire Eternal Suppression to directly shatter a mountain nearly a hundred meters tall.
Because the commotion was too great, the local Spirit Hall launched an investigation afterward; on the surface a mere Spirit Ancestor, Yu Yan was never within their scope of suspicion… The next morning, after bidding farewell to Dugu Yan and Ye Lingling and enduring a round of nagging from Vice Dean Jiang Jing, Yu Yan and Xiao Wu left Exotic Beast Academy together and set off for the Extreme North Land.
Over the past two years, with ample resources and her own efforts, Dugu Yan had successfully Cultivated to Rank 39, not far from becoming a Spirit Ancestor.
Ye Lingling, having never consumed an Immortal Herb and being a support system Spirit Master with inherently slow Cultivation speed, had only just reached Rank 28.
Before leaving for good, Yu Yan took a detour to visit Newborn Village.
After more than two years of development, Newborn Village had become the largest settlement near Ice Soul City; most of its inhabitants were wretches Yu Yan had rescued here and there over the past two years.
In a feudal World with extraordinary powers, the wretched are countless; Yu Yan knew he could not help them all, but when he saw someone he could aid, lending a hand was always possible.
Traveling north, when they passed Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well, Yu Yan brought Xiao Wu into the medicinal garden that now belonged to him—Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well.
Under the protection of the poison-immune fragrant silk immortal product, they safely crossed the toxic barrier. The instant they entered Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well, Dark Snow's eyes widened.
As a Spirit Beast, Dark Snow's perception of Heaven And Earth Treasure far exceeds that of Spirit Masters; it could sense countless things here beneficial to itself.
Knowing who was in charge, Dark Snow leapt from Xiao Wu's arms into Yu Yan's, rubbing its head against him nonstop, trying to win an Immortal Herb through cuteness.
"You little glutton, go pick a herb that suits you. Whether you can become a Ten Thousand Year Spirit Beast depends on yourself—just remember not to enter the central zone."
Back then Dark Snow had consumed a common herb, not a Immortal Herb, and after years of digestion, another herb posed no problem.
Of course, the prerequisite was that this herb must not be a Immortal Herb.
"So this is Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well—truly extraordinary; compared to the Lake of Life at the heart of Star Dou Great Forest, it's hardly inferior."
Looking at Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well, which rivaled the Lake of Life in its own way, Xiao Wu's curious gaze swept back and forth as she explained the pros and cons of the two places to Yu Yan.
The Lake of Life covers a vast area, hosts many Hundred Thousand Year Spirit Beasts on its shores, and grows some herbs, yet few Immortal Herbs.
The zone influenced by Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well is small—only this valley. No intelligent plant-type Spirit Beasts reside here, but many Immortal Herbs grow.
"The interwoven ice-fire energy makes survival difficult for ordinary creatures, let alone growing into Spirit Beasts; the spring at the very center…"
After Xiao Wu compared the Lake of Life and Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well, Yu Yan began describing the unique aspects of the latter, clarifying why Spirit Beasts cannot arise here.
Dugu Bo had taken away many poisons useless to Yu Yan, while the flowers, grasses, trees, and fruits Yu Yan asked him to plant had taken root. A tenfold growth rate had already caused some fast-growing fruit trees to bear fruit.
While explaining, Yu Yan plucked some fruit from a tree with spirit power, handed two to Xiao Wu, and continued describing the area's peculiarities.
Finishing the introduction and settling Xiao Wu, Yu Yan briefly told her what he would do next, then dove head-first into Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well.
Last time he had lacked the strength to reach the bottom and glimpse the remains of the Ice and Fire Dragon King; now, at Spirit Power Level 55, he could surely go deeper.
Soon he reached his previous limit, saw the mark he had left—what had been his end point last time was now only the starting line.
The Ice and Fire Twin Fish swam around him, shielding him from the surrounding pressure.
A tailor-made Origin Spirit Beast for the fifth Spirit Ability of the Ice and Fire Twin Fish, perfectly matching the output logic of Vault Frost Falling Star Net and Earth Vein Flame Heart Banner, is designated
Spirit Beast name: Frost-Ember Cloudhammer Wyvern
