32: Chapter 32 Luring the Tiger Away from the Mountain, Su Ling Refines His Body with Ice and Fire

After chatting with Liu Erlong for a while, Su Ling stayed in the wooden house that night, and she even prepared a dinner for him that was not particularly sumptuous.

Unfortunately, the Favorability rating did not even reach sixty, and nothing special happened that night.

The next morning, Su Ling bid farewell to Liu Erlong and left Heaven Dou City, heading toward the Sunset Forest.

Su Ling chose to enter from the direction of Heaven Dou City; since Dugu Bo could arrive with Tang San in a short time, it meant the distance would not be too far from Heaven Dou City.

Secondly, the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well was located on a mountain about five hundred meters high; this was the first feature.

The second feature was that the area around the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well was full of thousand-year Spirit Beast.

Looking at the third feature, there was a poison formation there that even thousand-year or even Ten-Thousand-Year Soul Beast dared not enter.

Combining these three points, finding the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well in the Sunset Forest was not difficult.

After all, the area of the Sunset Forest was not too large, much smaller than the Star Dou Great Forest.

Holding a sharp dagger, Su Ling's movement technique, Carefree Travel, was very useful in the jungle.

Before long, Su Ling saw traces of thousand-year Spirit Beast.

First, he looked for mountains; if the height was not right, Su Ling would directly give up; this was the most efficient way.

On the first day, he searched four mountains that met the height requirement, but unfortunately, he had no gains.

On the second day, Su Ling searched ten mountains that met the height requirement, but unfortunately, he still did not find the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well.

It was not until the third day that his efforts paid off; under a mountain about five hundred meters high, all three features of the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well were met.

The mountain range, the gathering of thousand-year Spirit Beast, and an area at the foot of the mountain that all Spirit Beast dared not step into.

Carrying the top-grade antidote pill given by the System, Su Ling walked straight in. Sure enough, in the next second, Su Ling looked at his panel, and there was already a notification on it.

Host: Su Ling (Poisoned state, please detoxify within one hour)

Age: 19 years old

Spirit: Five Elements Battle Bow

Soul Power: Level 43

Mental: Level 56

spirit ring: Yellow (320 years, Water attribute), Yellow (652 years, Wood attribute), Purple (1358 years, Fire attribute), Black (10086 years, Gold-Earth dual attribute)

Spirit Bone: external Spirit Bone Golden Dragon Armor (10086 years)

Su Ling did not detoxify immediately but carefully climbed the mountain, while also trying his best not to leave traces for Dugu Bo to notice.

Half an hour later, Su Ling was on a cliff.

Beneath the cliff, there was a layer of mist, and he could not see the scene below. If nothing went wrong, this was the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well.

Unfortunately, Su Ling could not fly yet, nor did he have a tool as convenient as the Eight Spider Lances to go down, and the Golden Dragon Armor was obviously not suitable.

So Su Ling had no choice but to take out two daggers, use them to stab into the stone wall, and then slowly descend.

After descending about fifty meters, Su Ling could clearly see the two springs of ice and fire below, as well as various medicinal herbs.

Confirming it was the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well was enough, so Su Ling climbed back up.

Cleaning up his traces, Su Ling went down the mountain and soon exited Dugu Bo's poison formation.

He took out the top-grade antidote pill and swallowed it. After a few minutes, Su Ling looked at his character panel on the System again; the poison had been neutralized.

However, about ten minutes after Su Ling walked out, he spotted a green-haired old man flashing past in the distance.

Was that Dugu Bo?

Whew...

Su Ling breathed a sigh of relief.

That was close. If he had stayed to enter the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well to pick herbs, he might have directly encountered Dugu Bo.

From this point of view, his plan was correct.

Do not pin your hopes on others, and even more so, do not gamble your life on luck.

Running wildly, by nightfall, Su Ling had returned to Heaven Dou City.

Along the way, Su Ling did not see Dugu Bo returning.

So Su Ling took this opportunity to create panic for Xue Xing.

To be safe, Su Ling forged two different letters.

One was written to Dugu Bo, and the other was for Xue Xing.

The letter written to Dugu Bo was very simple; he pretended to be an enemy of Dugu Bo.

Then, he pretended to have captured Dugu Yan, who was outside fighting in a Spirit fight with the Heaven Dou Royal Team, forcing him to stay away from Heaven Dou City.

After that, Su Ling disguised himself and spent a large sum of money to have different people deliver them to the mansions of these two people respectively.

For Dugu Bo, even knowing it was a trap, he would definitely go for the sake of Dugu Yan.

As for the letter to Xue Xing, it was also very simple, just one sentence: Xue Qinghe had begun to doubt Xue Beng's disguise and might send experts to test him recently, or even cause an accident to make him die.

In fact, these two letters from Su Ling also had the intention of driving a wedge between the two parties. In addition, it was a double insurance; what if one person did not see the letter?

As long as he saw it, Xue Xing would definitely want Dugu Bo to protect Xue Beng, yet after Dugu Bo read the letter, he would definitely go to protect his granddaughter; both choices were contradictory.

Su Ling wanted to see how they would choose.

The next morning, just as Prince Xue Xing had gotten up, a Guard ran into the mansion in a panic and reported: "Prince, a beggar delivered a letter, saying it concerns the safety of the Fourth Prince."

"Xue Beng?"

Xue Xing immediately opened the letter and saw the paragraph Su Ling had left on it; his expression became grave.

Few people knew about Xue Beng's disguise; besides him, probably only Dugu Bo knew.

"Where is that beggar? Bring him to see me," Xue Xing said.

Looking at this paragraph again, Xue Xing said: "Someone, go and invite Mr. Dugu Bo."

Speaking of this, Xue Xing was still worried, wondering if he should bring Xue Beng back from the Heaven Dou Royal Academy.

After a while, the beggar was brought before him.

A round of questioning resulted in nothing, as Su Ling was disguised to the teeth, and even his voice had been changed; Prince Xue Xing could never find him.

Helpless, Xue Xing had to give up and wait for Dugu Bo's arrival.

However, after waiting for a long time, Dugu Bo did not come.

"What! You said Mr. Dugu Bo has left Heaven Dou City? Two thousand kilometers away, did he not say he would tell me if he went on a long journey?" Xue Xing was somewhat enraged, and in his anger, he smashed the vase next to him on the ground.

"Go and chase after him; you must bring Mr. Dugu Bo back. Also, tell people to wait at the city gate of Heaven Dou City; they must wait until Mr. Dugu Bo returns and bring him to see me."

"Also, have the retainers of the mansion come over; there is an important task," Xue Xing said.

While Xue Xing was anxious, Su Ling had once again entered the Sunset Forest.

At this time, Dugu Bo had already left, and what he did not expect was that Dugu Bo had left directly without discussing it with Xue Xing.

Dugu Bo's speed was very fast, so Su Ling also had to seize the time.

The place Su Ling mentioned was more than two thousand kilometers away from Heaven Dou City; even if Dugu Bo was a Titled Douluo, it would take more than five days for a round trip.

In this time, Su Ling dealing with the herbs of the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well and his Ice and Fire Body Refining would be barely enough.

Meanwhile, at the Crown Princes Mansion, Qian Renxue had finished her night of Cultivate.

"Strange, why do I have a bad premonition?"

"Someone, show me what major events happened in Heaven Dou City today," Qian Renxue whispered.

Su Ling entered the Sunset Forest and arrived at the cliff above the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well at the fastest speed.

Following the previous method, Su Ling descended by inserting daggers into the rock wall, and in a short while, Su Ling landed.

The Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well was right in front of him, less than fifty meters away.

Taking a look at the various medicinal herbs of the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well, Su Ling first took an antidote pill to detoxify, and then began to collect the herbs.

Time was limited; Su Ling only collected good herbs!

The Immortal Herb Record recorded various different immortal herbs, as well as their methods of consumption, and the methods of picking and storage.

The fragrant immortal grass, Qiluo Tulip, narcissus jade bone, and other various useful immortal herbs were all collected and stored in the System space by Su Ling.

In addition to the immortal herbs, Su Ling also collected Nine-Ranked Purple Ganoderma, Ten-Thousand-Year Ginseng King, and many other ten-thousand-year level medicinal herbs.

Su Ling even took away the Snow Swan Kiss, a highly toxic immortal herb; of course, there were also many highly toxic immortal herbs that were not mentioned in the novel.

In the novel, many highly toxic immortal herbs were refined by Tang San into the Death-Dealing Yama's Invitation.

This Hidden Weapons was a good thing; even a Spirit Saint could not resist it if hit, but it was refined from many immortal herbs.

Being poisonous did not mean it was useless; various medicinal herbs complemented and restrained each other. As long as they were taken properly, highly toxic immortal herbs could also exert good effects under certain specific conditions.

Just like the Octagonal Mysterious Ice Grass and the Blazing Apricot, they were typical examples.

If you take one poisonous herb, two are also poisonous; if you use the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well to absorb them and achieve balance, that is Ice and Fire Body Refining.

It just so happened that the Immortal Herb Record in Su Ling's hand recorded the immortal herbs very comprehensively.

Most of those highly toxic immortal herbs could exert good medicinal effects under specific conditions.

After collecting all the good things, more than six hours had passed. Su Ling finally came to the side of the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well.

Now, the entire Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well only had two immortal herbs left: the Octagonal Mysterious Ice Grass and the Blazing Apricot!

Su Ling's body was strong enough, even more powerful than Tang San's at the same period.

Enduring the test of ice and fire, he quickly picked the two immortal herbs and then consumed them.

Afterward, Su Ling took off all the clothes on his body and put all his things into the System space.

In just a few breaths, Su Ling felt the alternation of cold and heat on his body.

His body, which was originally balanced in the Five Elements, began to become chaotic again. Just after reaching an extremely unbearable point,

With a splash, Su Ling jumped into the spring water of the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well.

"So comfortable!"

Two different forces poured into his body.

Su Ling immediately used the Five Elements Breathing Technique to circulate his Soul Power, and the ice and fire participated in the transformation of the Five Elements in Su Ling's body.

"My Ice and Fire Body Refining seems to be a bit different from Tang San's."

Unknowingly, Su Ling discovered that the Five Elements Battle Bow in his body seemed to be fusing with the ice attribute.

"Could it be that it wants to add an ice attribute to me? Is the Five Elements Battle Bow not the end?"

Su Ling recalled the book recording the Five Elements Battle Bow from his predecessor's Family; it seemed to have written a sentence: if the Five Elements Battle Bow continues to absorb other attributes to achieve balance, perhaps it can evolve the Spirit again.

This was said by the clansman who evolved the Five Elements Battle Bow back then; it was just that he was satisfied with the combat power of the Five Elements Battle Bow at the time and did not take risks afterward, but he wrote down his thoughts.

Ice attribute?

Then let it merge!

Su Ling also controlled his Spirit and began to integrate the new ice attribute.

Due to the relationship between water and ice, Su Ling found that his Spirit accepted it very quickly, and soon made his Spirit have the characteristics of the ice attribute, which could be freely converted with his own water attribute.

Time passed slowly, and Su Ling had been Cultivate all along, not fainting in the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well like Tang San.

After all, the gap in body and Soul Power between the two during Ice and Fire Body Refining was huge.

Therefore, Su Ling's absorption of the medicinal effects of these two immortal herbs was also much faster.

Four days later!

Two thousand kilometers away.

Dugu Bo arrived at the location Su Ling mentioned, but he did not find the person who wrote the letter.

So Dugu Bo took out the letter and looked at it, saying: "I've been tricked."

Only then did he discover that the handwriting and the traces of time on the letter did not match; although it had been treated to look old, he still found the flaw.

The letter received should have been written the day before, and it was impossible for this letter to be delivered to Heaven Dou City from here in time.

"Why did someone want me to leave Heaven Dou City?" Dugu Bo put away the letter and returned to Heaven Dou City at the fastest speed.

And he could never have imagined that the reason for making him leave Heaven Dou City was for the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well.

After all, it was Guard by a poison formation, and anyone below the Spirit Douluo level would die upon entering.

At this moment, Su Ling also leaped out of the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well.

"I actually Cultivate for four days."

"Time to leave."

Su Ling put on his clothes and used two special bottles to hold two large bottles of Yang spring water and Yin spring water before climbing up the cliff and leaving.

"Not bad, Ice and Fire Body Refining is really powerful." Su Ling felt his body along the way.

The first feature: after Ice and Fire Body Refining, he was immune to all poisons; he had just experienced it, and exiting Dugu Bo's poison formation had no effect on him.

Secondly, he was immune to ice and fire; finally, his body had become more powerful.

Because he had Cultivate longer in the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well combined with the medicinal effects, his Body Refining effect was even better than Tang San's.

At this time, his physical strength had reached the Spirit Saint level.

His Soul Power had also increased from level 43 to level 45, which was also due to absorbing more medicinal effects.

Tang San's Ice and Fire Body Refining might only be able to fully consume all the medicinal power when he reached level 70.

As for Su Ling, he might be able to exhaust it around level 60, so even the two immortal herbs focused on Body Refining allowed him to increase his Soul Power by two levels.

In addition, taking immortal herbs had another benefit: it could improve one's talent and potential to a certain extent.

For example, Su Ling now, his Cultivate speed was obviously much faster than before.

Leaving the Sunset Forest, Su Ling walked straight to the back mountain of Lanba Academy to find Liu Erlong.

Originally, it was said that it would take at least a month, but it ended in less than ten days.

Ending it early was also good; logically speaking, the things obtained by brushing the Goddess's Favorability might be better than the trip to the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well in the future; after all, the System was his most important foundation.
