Chapter 11 Yin and Yang Twins; The Method of Detoxification
Under the protection of the Blue Silver Domain, Jiang Li and Tang San quickly passed through the outer Jade Phosphor Poisonous Mist with Dugu Bo, and once inside, the view opened up dramatically.
Although this valley is small, it is like a secret realm isolated from the world!
The valley is filled with strangely shaped plants, their branches and leaves stretching out freely in various postures, making it a feast for the eyes.
Many flowers and plants freely emit a magnificent fluorescence, as if draped in a dreamlike veil.
However, the most eye-catching feature is the lake in the middle of the valley.
Half of the lake surface is milky white like solidified fat, and the other half is vermilion like flowing fire. The boundaries are clear yet naturally blended. The shape is similar to Tai Chi, but it does not completely conform to the traditional Yin-Yang fish pattern.
Where the two colors meet, the water flows inward and swirls, forming a constantly churning eye, as if it were the heart of this valley.
What's even more peculiar is that each of these milky white and vermilion springs nurtures a unique plant.
Growing in the milky white spring water was a plant with an entirely ice-blue body, its leaves spreading outwards in eight angles, and a chilling aura emanated from it.
Meanwhile, a fiery red plant stands in the vermilion spring water, vibrant and unrestrained, echoing the icy blue in the distance, creating an indescribable spectacle in the heart of the lake.
Tang San was stunned by the beautiful scenery before him. This was actually the Yin Yang Ice and Fire Eyes recorded in the Mysterious Heaven Art!
That's the Cockscomb Phoenix Sunflower... that's the Eight Star Aniseed Ice Grass and the Infernal Delicate Apricot...
At this moment, Tang San felt so happy he was about to faint!
However, he quickly regained his composure; this place did not belong to them yet!
And from Dugu Bo's words just now, he also realized that the other party was simply guarding a treasure mountain without realizing it!
Perhaps...
Jiang Li, on the other side, was also stunned by the beautiful scenery before him. Although he had learned from written descriptions of how enchanting the scenery was in his previous life, he was still quite shocked when he actually saw it with his own eyes.
"This place truly deserves to be called one of the three great treasure troves in the world."
Hearing Jiang Li's exclamation, Dugu Bo turned his head curiously. "Oh? What? Kid, you know this place?"
Jiang Li nodded, "This place not only has abundant spiritual energy."
"If plants grow here, it can speed up their growth rate by an unknown amount."
"And I suspect that Senior Dugu, you also relied on the unique features of this place to suppress your own snake venom, which allowed you to make that final leap and become a Title Douluo, right?"
Jiang Li stopped there, and he didn't intend to say anything more.
He was also afraid that if Old Poison knew the truth, he might go completely insane.
Dugu Bo proudly raised his head, stroking his beard with a smug look on his face. "Alright, you two lads, I've brought you in as well. Now, tell me the method you mentioned that could deal with my Jade Phosphor Serpent lineage, shall we?"
"Of course, but Senior Dugu Bo, the two of us need to select some herbs that we can use as payment. You shouldn't mind, right?"
Dugu Bo was naturally not surprised by this and readily nodded in agreement.
However, at that moment, Tang San tugged at Jiang Li's clothes and led him aside, indicating that he had something to say.
After gesturing to Dugu Bo, Jiang Li and Tang San went to the side.
In response, Dugu Bo stated that as a Title Douluo, he possessed his own pride and would naturally not eavesdrop.
"Master, I suppose you recognize the immortal herbs here, and you should also know their importance."
"Disciple has devised a method to force Senior Dugu Bo's snake venom into his soul bone. In this way, we can fulfill our promise."
Tang San's meaning was simple: the two of them, master and disciple, should share the good stuff here. He was also afraid that Dugu Bo would change his mind after learning about the effects of the herbs inside.
After all, the other party is a genuine Title Douluo.
Moreover, there was something he didn't mention: if, many years later, Dugu Bo's snake venom were to backfire and cause him to explode and die, wouldn't this auspicious land truly belong to them?
"Oh? You recognize these medicinal herbs, Little San?"
Faced with Jiang Li's sudden question, Tang San stammered that he had accidentally found a picture book when he was young, which contained detailed records of all the immortal herbs, as well as the uses of some poisons.
Jiang Li didn't point it out, and as for his little scheme, he saw right through it.
You must understand that Jiang Li genuinely wants to teach Tang San well, so he cannot allow him to have such wicked thoughts.
Why did Tang God King become Tang God King? Wasn't it because of Yu Xiaogang's wrong teachings and example?
Jiang Li felt that his habits from his previous life as an assassin still affected his mindset too much. Completely changing Tang San into the person he wanted was a huge undertaking!
"Little San, you should still have basic integrity as a person. And with your intelligence, I believe you've already guessed that there's a limit to how much your soul bone can hold."
"Although Senior Dugu Bo has an eccentric temper, he will always do what he promises. As his master, I have the confidence to not dare to act or go back on my word."
"Moreover, their Jade Phosphor Serpent lineage now only consists of him and his granddaughter. So many immortal items would be useless to them."
"Little San, Master hopes that the disciple he teaches will become a strong person with a heart for all living beings, rather than a person who will do anything for profit."
"I hope this is the first and last time."
Jiang Li's tone was calm, but it made Tang San feel a burning sensation on his face.
He never imagined that his master was of such noble character and had such high expectations of him.
"Master... Little... Little San knows he was wrong."
As someone who deeply embodies the belief that "a teacher for a day is a father for life," Tang San naturally accepted his master's teachings with joy.
He felt the greatness of his master once again.
You should know that in his previous life, even after those inner disciples became disciples of those elders, those elders only ever paid attention to the disciples' cultivation level and never paid attention to the growth of their character!
Not to mention that his father in this life did not teach him anything in this regard!
At this moment, Tang San once again felt incredibly lucky to be able to become his master's disciple!
There was even one thing he himself wasn't aware of.
Unconsciously, the image of his master began to gradually overlap with the image of his father in his memory!
