Chapter 67: Refine a Golden Body?
"Immortal Herb?"
Dugu Bo's ears perked up, immediately catching the key point.
Lin Yang nodded and explained,
"I once learned some relevant knowledge from an ancient book. These so-called Immortal Herbs are special plants born in places with abundant Heaven and Earth Origin Qi. They contain pure energy that far exceeds ordinary Heaven And Earth Treasures."
"Every kind of Immortal Herb has miraculous effects, however..."
Lin Yang paused, shifting the conversation,
"Immortal Herbs cannot be eaten recklessly. Some require specific methods of consumption; taking them rashly is no different from taking poison."
A flash of relief crossed Dugu Bo's eyes. Fortunately, he hadn't entertained the thought of trying them personally.
He usually only treated this place as a medicinal garden, or used its unique environment to suppress his toxins whenever they backlashed.
He was curious about the strange plants growing here, but he never tried them lightly.
It wasn't that he was cowardly, but rather that he had concerns.
Naturally, that concern was Dugu Yan.
He had struggled and fought throughout his life, offending many people. There were just as many who wanted to take revenge on him, both openly and in the shadows.
As long as he was alive, those people wouldn't dare show their faces.
But once something happened to him, those people would be the first to target Dugu Yan.
Without his protection, his granddaughter's future path would surely be difficult.
So even though he knew that the kid from the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon family was approaching Yan Yan to win him over, and even though he looked down on the boy completely, he didn't show any obvious resistance.
Was he not also trying to find a reliable backer for Yan Yan?
But perhaps... he needed to change his thinking.
Dugu Bo looked at Lin Yang, who was enthusiastically digging in the dirt, and a strange look flashed in his eyes.
Aside from having no background, this kid simply crushed that Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon boy in every other aspect. Moreover, that girl Yan Yan seemed quite interested in this kid too.
If they couldn't be master and disciple, wouldn't it be even better if he became his grandson-in-law?
As long as he grew up, he would naturally be able to protect Yan Yan for life.
Tsk... he's just a bit young!
At this moment, Lin Yang, completely unaware of Dugu Bo's thoughts, dug up two earth dragon golden melons—one large and one small—from beneath the soil.
The large one was the size of two fists, while the small one wasn't even as big as an infant's fist.
Lin Yang reburied the small one back into the soil, plucked the larger earth dragon golden melon, and handed it to Dugu Bo.
"Your Excellency, this is the earth dragon golden melon. Unfortunately, only this one is ripe."
Dugu Bo took the earth dragon golden melon and turned it over and over to examine it.
He could faintly sense the aura of a high-ranking Dragon species within this thing.
"How do I use this?"
"You can just eat it directly," Lin Yang said.
"Is it that simple?" Dugu Bo asked suspiciously.
Lin Yang nodded. "It's that simple."
Ignoring the Old Poison Fiend's paranoia, Lin Yang turned to look at the very center of the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well, his eyes gradually burning with heat.
"Your Excellency, may I take a few Immortal Herbs? I can exchange them using those three conditions."
Dugu Bo was stunned for a moment. He casually tucked the earth dragon golden melon into his storage soul tool and waved his hand.
"No need. You can take whichever medicinal herbs here you fancy. As long as you don't waste them, it's up to you."
Lin Yang was taken aback. Was this Old Poison Fiend really this generous?
"However, I also have one condition," Dugu Bo said, a smile curling at the corner of his mouth.
"Please speak, Your Excellency."
"I think you should have guessed by now that I am also suffering from a toxic backlash, one even more severe than Yan Yan's. So..."
"Your Excellency wants me to detoxify you?"
Dugu Bo nodded. "Correct. There is only one earth dragon golden melon, and I will let Yan Yan consume it. As for the poison in my body, we'll use that Soul Bone method."
Lin Yang hesitated slightly before nodding. "I can do that!"
Then he quickly added, "If I use the medicinal materials here, the overall time will be shortened significantly."
"The medicinal herbs here are at your disposal. I only care about the results!"
The smile on Lin Yang's face slowly widened, and he nodded heavily.
"In that case, I will formally begin detoxifying Your Excellency tomorrow. I'll spend today here preparing."
"No," Dugu Bo flatly refused.
"The environment here is special. Even I cannot stay for long, let alone you."
"Your Excellency needn't worry. My Physique is special, and I am very little affected," Lin Yang said.
Dugu Bo stared fixedly at Lin Yang and, seeing that he indeed showed no abnormalities after being here for so long, reluctantly agreed to let him stay.
"In that case, I'll come back tomorrow."
With that, Dugu Bo turned to leave, but before going, he kindly reminded Lin Yang,
"Kid, don't try to be a hero! If you can't handle it, go hide on the mountaintop."
"Rest assured, Your Excellency!"
Once Dugu Bo left, Lin Yang finally let loose completely.
He didn't go for the Immortal Herbs immediately. Instead, he planted Ah Yin at a spot near the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well where extreme cold and scorching heat converged.
Influenced by the aura of the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well, Ah Yin quickly took root. Her grass leaves grew rapidly, spreading into a large patch of Blue Silver Grass in the blink of an eye.
"This place is very suitable for you. Grow well here."
Ah Yin's leaves tightly wrapped around Lin Yang's finger, and a thought was transmitted over.
Lin Yang smiled. "Don't worry, I won't leave you behind. Growing well here is the greatest help you can give me."
After comforting Ah Yin for a while, Lin Yang stood up and walked straight to the edge of the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well.
His gaze swept across the companion Immortal Herbs near the Extreme Yin Cold Spring and the Blazing Yang Spring.
The Octagonal Mysterious Ice Grass and the Blazing Fire Apricot Tree are both the most violent poisonous grasses and the highest-tier Immortal Herbs.
Consuming two top-tier Immortal Herbs with completely different attributes simultaneously could not only forge a body immune to ice and fire but also significantly enhance physical fitness.
It was practically a must-have medicine on the Douluo Continent for killing enemies above one's level and laying a Foundation for becoming a god.
Lin Yang naturally wouldn't let such top-grade Immortal Herbs slip by.
He raised his hand, controlling the Flesh Thorns to pick the Octagonal Mysterious Ice Grass with an iron tool and the Blazing Fire Apricot Tree with a jade vessel.
When Lin Yang held the two Immortal Herbs in his hands at the same time, the extreme cold and extreme heat emanating from them vanished simultaneously.
The two restrained each other, seemingly reaching a certain balance.
Without the slightest hesitation, Lin Yang stuffed both Immortal Herbs into his mouth at once.
The two herbs melted the moment they entered his mouth!
Almost instantly, a surge of incredibly violent ice and fire energy exploded within his body.
Looking at the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well before him, Lin Yang leaped straight down, plunging his entire body into the confluence of the ice and fire springs.
The spring water submerged Lin Yang, splashing slightly before returning to a state of calm.
Beneath the water, Lin Yang exerted all his strength to circulate his Breathing Technique, controlling the energy from the Immortal Herbs to continuously gather within his body.
Time passed bit by bit. Under Lin Yang's taming, the ice and fire energy gradually stabilized, and that violent impact was slowly suppressed.
For an ordinary person, this would be the time to honestly digest and absorb it to achieve the accomplishment of 'Ice and Fire Refining the Golden Body.'
But a flash of determination crossed Lin Yang's eyes.
Refine a golden body?
Refine my ass!
His Martial Soul was the Demon God Body, not some Blue Silver Grass.
The so-called fire immunity, ice immunity, and poison immunity—these traits sounded powerful, but to him, they were the most useless of useless things.
He wanted to use this massive, clashing energy to complete the Secondary Awakening of his Demon God Body Martial Soul!
