The three of them traveled over mountains and rivers, relying on the flying speed of a Titled Douluo, and arrived in just a few hours.
"Gu Feng, we're here. Take a look. Is this the Land of Ice and Fire you mentioned?"
Gu Feng cautiously began to survey his surroundings. A dreamlike scene unfolded before his eyes: icy blue mist rose and intertwined with crimson heat waves, creating a strange yet harmonious spectacle.
Under the fusion of these two extreme forces, many Heavenly Material Earthly Treasures he had never seen before grew.
Some shimmered with a crystalline luster, while others exuded an exotic fragrance. It seemed as though each plant contained boundless medicinal power.
"Little Fengzi, you're in luck! Who would have thought this place is actually the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well!"
"I thought such a treasure land only existed in legends and could never appear in reality. I never imagined such a place truly exists in the world!"
Electrolux's excited voice echoed in Gu Feng's mind.
"Old Yi, calm down. We still need to detoxify Dugu Bo."
Gu Feng looked at the two Immortal Herbs at the center of the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well, suppressing his excitement.
"Grandpa, what is this place?"
Dugu Yan gazed at everything around her with a sense of novelty, about to ask.
"Yan Yan, don't speak yet."
Dugu Bo stopped Dugu Yan, who was about to speak, and then turned to Gu Feng: "Young man, take a look at the herbs here. Can they detoxify the two of us?"
Gu Feng nodded: "Of course, no problem. First, we need to understand the foundation of the Jade Serpent Five Venoms. According to the records of our Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School."
"The Jade Serpent Five Venoms are a type of mixed toxin, containing both neurotoxic and hemolytic components. That's why they are so difficult to cure."
Hearing this, Dugu Bo nodded slightly, acknowledging Gu Feng's explanation while also feeling surprised.
Because the Jade Serpent Five Venoms now only remain within their Jade Scale Serpent Dugu family.
Records about the Jade Serpent Five Venoms are extremely scarce, yet this young man happens to know about them.
Is this the depth of a major sect?
"Your physical conditions are as follows: one has accumulated terrifying toxins over years of cultivation, while the other inherited the toxins from birth. One has already been poisoned to the marrow, while the other's blood is infused with toxins. If nothing is done, both of you are undoubtedly beyond saving."
Dugu Bo's expression instantly darkened, and a cold aura emanated from his body as he questioned: "Young man Gu Feng, are you making fun of me?"
"Don't get so worked up. I didn't say it's impossible to cure."
Gu Feng remained calm and spoke unhurriedly.
Hearing this, Dugu Bo's tense expression relaxed slightly, and a glimmer of anticipation flashed in his eyes.
"I have two methods here. Think about which one you'd like to use."
Gu Feng deliberately paused for effect, then continued: "One method involves using a soul bone to draw the toxins from your body into the soul bone."
As soon as these words were spoken, Dugu Bo's heart trembled, and he marveled inwardly.
Brilliant!
Such a simple yet ingenious method—why had he never thought of it before?
"Don't zone out. I haven't finished speaking yet."
Gu Feng looked at Dugu Bo, who was deep in thought, and reminded him, "This method has its drawbacks. Using a soul bone as a vessel for toxins will eventually reach its limit. Once the toxins exceed its capacity, the consequences will be unimaginable."
"To put it bluntly, this is only a temporary solution to alleviate the toxins, treating the symptoms but not the root cause."
Dugu Bo's expression instantly turned grim again, secretly relieved that he hadn't acted impulsively earlier. Otherwise, he might have lost his life without even knowing how.
"The second method," Gu Feng continued, "is that I help purify the toxins in your body. After that, you can circulate your Soul Power and attempt to condense a Poison Pill."
"What are the drawbacks?" Dugu Bo, now much more cautious, quickly asked.
"Well, the drawback is that the purification process might be a bit painful..."
Gu Feng scratched his head, a sly smile appearing on his face.
Old Yi's purification magic could even cleanse the sinister aura of evil Soul Masters, so dealing with this mixed toxin would be a piece of cake.
As for condensing a Poison Pill using Soul Power, according to Old Yi's meticulous deductions, it was theoretically completely feasible.
Dugu Yan, standing to the side, looked utterly confused and couldn't help but ask, "Grandpa, what are you two talking about? What toxins? What purification?"
Gu Feng turned his gaze to Dugu Bo and calmly asked, "Senior, have you made up your mind? Which option do you prefer?"
"Wait! Gu Feng, first explain to me clearly—what exactly is this Poison Pill you mentioned?"
Dugu Bo seemed to have suddenly caught onto a crucial piece of information, his eyes lighting up as he eagerly pressed for an answer.
Before Gu Feng could respond, Dugu Bo slightly opened his mouth, his throat moving, and then a jade-green pill slowly emerged from his mouth, landing steadily in his broad palm.
The pill emitted a deep, mysterious glow, its surface swirling with intricate patterns, and it radiated powerful Soul Power.
"This is the Inner Core I've condensed through years of cultivation. Take a look—can it be used as the Poison Pill you mentioned?"
Dugu Bo's eyes were filled with anticipation as he stared intently at Gu Feng.
Gu Feng took the pill, examining it carefully in his hand, his brow furrowed in deep thought.
After a while, he slowly nodded and said, "Theoretically, it should be feasible. However, the toxins you've accumulated over the years are simply too vast. If we attempt to purify them all at once, even the slightest mistake could endanger your life."
"In my opinion, it would be better to proceed gradually, slowly transferring the toxins into this pill."
As he spoke, Gu Feng gestured in the air, trying to help Dugu Bo better understand his point:
"This way, you can use the toxins whenever you need them, and in the meantime, you won't have to worry about the toxins harming your body. It's a win-win situation."
After listening, Dugu Bo nodded thoughtfully. Gu Feng's analysis was clear, logical, and indeed made a lot of sense.
As for whether the Inner Core could withstand the immense amount of toxins, Dugu Bo wasn't particularly concerned.
After all, this Inner Core had been condensed from his Jade Scale Serpent Martial Soul. Over the years, it had coexisted with the toxins in his body. If it could bear the Jade Scale Serpent's poison, what difficulty would there be in handling it now?
"Good, Gu Feng! You truly are the lucky star in my life! Since that's the case, I'll give it a try right away."
Dugu Bo's eyes were filled with excitement. With a flick of his sleeve, he decisively sat down cross-legged in front of the two, closed his eyes, and instantly stirred the Soul Power around him, eagerly beginning to guide the toxins.
This scene left Dugu Yan, who was standing nearby, completely stunned.
He didn't even try to avoid it?
Dugu Yan's expression turned strange, her almond-shaped eyes wide with suspicion as she looked at Gu Feng and chided, "What kind of bewitching potion did you give my grandfather?"
"This isn't any bewitching potion. I'm helping you detoxify," Gu Feng replied with a serious expression.
"How is that possible? How could we be poisoned?" Dugu Yan frowned slightly, instinctively refuting his claim, her tone filled with disbelief.
"Sister YanYan, haven't you noticed that your grandfather disappears for a few days every month?" Gu Feng narrowed his eyes slightly, a hint of slyness flashing in his gaze.
Hearing this, Dugu Yan fell silent.
Thinking back carefully, it really did seem to be the case. Her grandfather would indeed vanish for a few days each month, and when he returned, he always seemed slightly exhausted.
Could her father's death also be related to this?
