Chapter 135: Guarding The Treasure Mountain In Vain
🕑 Added 2025-03-15 10:00:09 +0000 UTCSun Zhongjing looked at the strange hot spring in front of him that was a combination of ice and fire. This calm hot spring was very magical. It clearly looked extremely hot and extremely cold, but there was no breath of high temperature or severe cold on the surface of the water.
Of course, he would not be deceived by the superficial phenomena of things. He understood that the red side of this seemingly calm red and white spring water was hot enough to be comparable to magma. If he touched it out of curiosity, then wherever he touched it would be burned to disappear.
The white side contained a terrifying coldness! If you touch it lightly, the place you touch will be frozen into ice slag and dissipate with the wind!
The extreme cold and high temperature contained in this pool, even a Titled Douluo dare not touch it.
After looking around for a few times, Sun Zhongjing shifted his gaze to other places. Although the surroundings were hazy with mist, it was still very easy for him to see everything around him clearly.
There were all kinds of plants around the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well, with various shapes and forms. It looked like a plant paradise. However, all the plants here were rare.
He strolled through the medicinal garden, stopping from time to time to observe. The expression on his face became more and more surprised, as if he had seen something incredible.
Sun Zhongjing came to Dugu Bo again, and the look he gave him now became very strange. He couldn’t help but shook his head and sighed: “You really are… guarding a treasure mountain without knowing it!”
“Uh… Sect Master, what do you mean by this? Are these herbs here very precious?” Dugu Bo said in confusion.
“precious?”
Sun Zhongjing shook his head and said, “This place is so precious that it can’t be described. With these rare and precious herbs growing here, if you can find a suitable one to take, then the poison in your body will not pose a threat to you at all. It is not impossible to even improve your strength.”
“Do you know the effects of these herbs?”
Dugu Bo was puzzled at first, and then he said, “I am not unaware that the herbs growing here may be very valuable, but I have searched through medical books and still cannot find any information about them. And herbs are not to be taken carelessly. Taking them hastily may even have the opposite effect. So we can only let it go to waste.”
“Since you know the herbs here, please feel free to use them. I don’t know the effects of these herbs anyway, so it would be a waste to leave them here.”
Dugu Bo was very generous, except that he didn’t know how precious the immortal herbs here were. The main reason was that even if the immortal herbs here could greatly improve his strength, even to the level of Limit Douluo, it would not be able to change the defects of the family’s martial spirit. Even if his strength could become stronger, what would it matter? His son was poisoned to death because of the toxins attached to the martial spirit.
If the problem of martial soul defects cannot be solved, his descendants may die out within a few generations.
In comparison, the method of making poison pills taught to him by Sun Zhongjing was different.
First of all, this is a technique that is 100% in line with the characteristics of their martial spirits, which allows them to transform the poison that originally endangered their lives into a boost to improve their own strength, and use the poison to practice. They can even look forward to a higher level of realm!
According to the introduction of the poison pill, Dugu Bo felt that if he could condense the poison pill, he might be able to reach the level of Super Douluo at level 96 in his lifetime. And this might not be the limit. There is a lot to look forward to in the future!
Secondly, this kind of skill can be passed down, and his descendants can benefit endlessly, allowing the family to continue to grow and prosper! Even if the immortal grass here is precious, how many generations can they use it? What should they do when the immortal grass is used up? Isn’t everything back to square one?
So in Dugu Bo’s opinion, the magic herb can only make his family prosperous temporarily, but the method of the poison pill can allow the Green Phosphorus Snake family to be passed down forever!
It Is obvious at a glance which one is the most precious.
“Don’t worry, I won’t be polite with you. You can’t find so many rare immortal herbs everywhere.” Sun Zhongjing agreed generously, and then said: “We can talk about the immortal herbs later. The most urgent thing is to condense the poison pill. The environment here is also suitable. Why don’t you condense the poison pill here. I will also help you stay safe.”
“Right here?” Dugu Bo was a little stunned.
“Yes, the unique environment here has a certain suppressive effect on the poison in your body. It can just prevent the toxins in your body from instinctively backlashing when you condense the poison pill.” Sun Zhongjing stroked his long beard and explained with a smile: “Although I can also use my power to help you suppress the poison in your body and condense it directly, condensing the poison pill requires your own energy and spirit. Therefore, if you ask others for help, it will inevitably be a case of forcing things to happen. So it is not advisable.”
Since Sun Zhongjing said so, Dugu Bo would naturally not have any doubts out of trust in him. He would not think that he was eyeing the precious immortal herbs here and wanted to dominate this place. After all, if Sun Zhongjing wanted to harm him, there would be no need to go through so much trouble. Even if he wanted this place, could he refuse it directly?
From any perspective, Sun Zhongjing had no reason to harm him.
Before condensing the poison pill, some preparation work is naturally required.
Sun Zhongjing looked around, picked a few herbs, and then rubbed them vigorously in his hands. Dry plant debris kept falling off.
When he opened his hands again, the herbs had disappeared, replaced by a light brown pill.
His operation stunned Dugu Bo. It was hard to imagine that someone could rub pills with bare hands. Are you sure this thing is a pill, not dirt on your hands?
Dugu Bo reached out to take the pill he handed over, and felt a faint fragrance rushing into his nose. At the same time, he could feel that the originally unruly poison in his body had also calmed down a little.
The effect Is so good?!
He was a little surprised. He didn’t expect that the smell of the pills he just rolled out could have such a good effect. What would happen if he really took it?
“This pill can help you better tame the poison in your body. The key to condensing a poison pill lies in how to make the poison in your body obediently condense into a pill. With this pill, you will get twice the result with half the effort.” Sun Zhongjing said, stroking his long beard.
For him who has maxed out his skills, rolling pills with bare hands is a basic operation. It is nothing more than extracting the medicinal ingredients from the herbs, and then blending them according to a unique ratio… and finally compressing them into pills. The principle is actually similar to alchemy, but the effect of the pills made by this operation of rolling pills with bare hands is destined to be not as good as the effect of real pills.
