Chapter 24 Ice and Fire Eyes
Time passed gradually as the grandfather and grandson talked, and soon it was noon.
The carriage did not stop for a moment, carrying several people towards the depths of the Sunset Forest. Dugu Bo exuded his own aura, intimidating and driving away the surrounding spirit beasts. Protect the carriage and move forward smoothly.
Not long after, a carriage brought a group of people to the front of a poisonous fog, and then struggled to move forward.
When Dugu Bo saw the carriage stop, he knew he had arrived.
"Little monster, get up, you're already here." Dugu Bo woke Wu Tong up, and then took the two of them out of the carriage.
Looking at the poisonous mist in front of him that looked like a natural barrier, Wu Tong pretended to be confused and asked, "Where is it? Where is the legendary Eye of Ice and Fire?"
"In this poisonous fog, this is a poison-avoiding pill. After you take it, follow me in. Don't run around, otherwise I won't be able to save you."
Dugu Bo took out three pills, took one himself, and handed the remaining two pills to the two of them. After they took them, he gave serious instructions.
Wu Tong and Dugu Yan felt Dugu Bo's seriousness and nodded solemnly to express their understanding.
Immediately afterwards, Dugu Bo led the two of them through the poisonous fog and came to a cliff, pointing to the place below surrounded by red and blue rays of fog.
"Little monster, that is the Ice and Fire Eyes you mentioned."
Wu Tong circulated his soul power, activated his inner eye instantly, and easily saw the scene in the mist. In the mist, a strange-shaped water pool suddenly came into view.
This is a pool that looks like a Yin-Yang Tai Chi diagram. It is circular in shape and contains two types of spring water.
One is icy blue, with the cold air constantly coming out, and the other is red, with the spring water inside constantly churning, and the hot air constantly coming out.
The two different springs are surrounded by each other like the yin and yang fish in the yin and yang Tai Chi diagram. They are both distinct and integrated.
After the cold air and hot air emerging from different springs on both sides converged in the air, they immediately turned into mist, filling the entire top of the mountain.
"The Eye of Ice and Fire, this is truly a miraculous work of nature!"
When he saw the Ice and Fire Eye below, this kind of spring that looked like a Yin-Yang Tai Chi diagram, although he had already known about it, Wu Tong couldn't help but feel quite shocked when he saw it with his own eyes, so he opened his mouth to admire it.
"How about it, little monster, this treasure land of mine is beautiful, isn't it? There are many precious herbs around the Ice and Fire Eyes, and they even look extraordinary. I just don't know if there is any medicine that can help us treat it."
Seeing Wu Tong's shocked look, Dugu Bo introduced that after Wu Tong learned that this treasure land was called the Ice and Fire Eye, Dugu Bo also began to call this place the Ice and Fire Eye.
"Old man, don't worry. This Ice and Fire Eye is a good place. You can definitely find medicine to help you treat it. Because this treasure land can not only help you suppress toxins, but it is also the best medicine garden.
It is recorded in the book that the Eye of Ice and Fire is one of the three major cornucopias in the world. Ordinary plants cannot grow here at all, because ordinary plants cannot adapt to that special climate, but here they allow those rare plants to grow for a long time. The speed is shortened by dozens of times.
To put it simply, if a Ganoderma plant grows in any of the three cornucopias for ten years. It will have the effect of Centennial Lingzhi. It can be seen that this Ice and Fire Eye can definitely be called a paradise for medicine, so there is no shortage of precious medicinal herbs here. "
Wu Tong heard Dugu Bo's question and explained. "I see. I'm just wondering why so many precious medicines are growing together here."
When Dugu Bo heard Wu Tong's explanation, he nodded in understanding.
"However, there is one thing you two need to pay attention to, especially Yan'er. You must not stay near the ice and fire eyes for a long time. Although this place is a paradise for plants, it is very unfriendly to people. .
The ice and fire eyes are surrounded by powerful ice and fire energy. These ice and fire energy form the mist, which will gradually erode the human body. If you cannot leave in time, you will inevitably explode and die. Although I can use my strength to resist the energy of ice and fire, even with my level of cultivation, I don’t dare to wait any longer. "
Dugu Bo then spoke seriously to the two of them, especially to Dugu Yan, and even more earnestly admonished him, wishing he could pour the precautions directly into Dugu Yan's mind.
Wu Tong rolled his eyes when he saw this, this old guy is really...
"Don't worry. Since I know the Ice and Fire Eyes, I must also know these things that need to be paid attention to. Old man, you'd better have a good talk with Sister Yanzi. I'll leave first."
Wu Tong said casually and rushed towards the Ice and Fire Eyes in the distance.
Dugu Bo looked at Wu Tong's hurried back, sighed, shook his head, and then stopped paying attention to Wu Tong. After all, the other party was right. How could Wu Tong, who knew such a treasure land, not know these things that needed attention?
He immediately turned around and continued to explain to Duguyan the things that needed attention.
Wu Tong, who was on the other side, had arrived at this unrivaled treasure in a short period of time.
Walking into the mist of ice and fire, Wu Tong ran the Red Wheel Heart Sutra, and the scorching true energy came out of his body, evaporating the surrounding mist directly to resist the erosion of the air of ice and fire.
"Huh? This environment seems to have a bonus for the practice of the Red Wheel Heart Sutra." Wu Tong felt the active Shaoyang Qi in his body and was puzzled. The Shaoyang Qi moved faster near the Ice and Fire Eyes. It's usually about 30% faster.
After thinking carefully, Wu Tong suddenly realized that although the ice and fire eyes existed in the form of ice and fire, the Tao and principles that merged with each other but were opposed to each other were similar to the principles of Tai Chi's yin and yang that merge and conflict.
His own Red Wheel Heart Sutra is originally a technique based on the Tao of Extreme Yang, but it is easy to break if it is too strong. The Tao and principles of the Ice and Fire Eyes explain the concept of the coexistence of hardness and softness, and the coexistence of yin and yang, making Wu Tong originally full of strong energy. There was a touch of softness.
This allowed Shaoyang Zhenqi to speed up its operation, and the emergence of softness also made the fiery and fierce Shaoyang Zhenqi more condensed and mysterious. Its operation speed and efficiency were greatly improved. Wu Tong's combat effectiveness was compared to that of the previous one. Before, it had increased by at least about 50%.
"This is really my blessed land. Not only can I speed up my cultivation, but it also has many rare and precious immortal herbs."
After thinking about it, Wu Tong no longer paid attention to the issue of true energy. After all, this was a good thing.
Instead, he turned his gaze to the patch of herbs next to the Ice and Fire eyes.
Cinnabar lotus, snow silkworm, nine-leaf ginseng, Ganoderma lucidum, and even Tianshan snow lotus... all kinds of medicinal herbs have been available for hundreds of years. Herbs that originally required different planting locations, different time periods, and different times appeared together here, as if they had completely ignored their own growth conditions.
Wu Tong looked at this magical scene and couldn't help but secretly feel surprised that there is such a place in the world.
