Chapter 54: The Allure of the Ice and Fire Yin-Yang Well
Chapter 54: The Allure of the Ice and Fire Yin-Yang Well
Dugu Bo freely unleashed his soul power in the sky. He had always needed to use his soul power to suppress the toxins in his body, which meant that he had never experienced the feeling of using his soul power at full strength for many years.
Especially when the body is infected by a deadly poison, it's like a rusty machine, and no matter what you do, you can't enjoy what it feels like to be smooth.
But today he realized how relaxing it is to have a body free of toxins.
This feeling is like a thousand-pound burden suddenly being lifted off your body, and all the rotten parts of your body being renewed.
The exhilarating sensation that permeated both body and soul was something Dugu Bo had never experienced before in his life.
Let alone Dugu Bo, even someone like Gu Rong, who is not physically ill, would enter a state of excitement the first time he used the Horse Talisman. Not to mention Dugu Bo, who has endured pain his whole life.
He's already showing some mental fortitude by not being overwhelmed by the pleasure.
At this moment, Dugu Bo was like a husky that had broken free of its reins, freely unleashing and venting his power.
Below, Gu Xuan looked up at this scene, protected by the ancient banyan tree.
"Wow, that's so flashy, is he really enjoying himself?"
Gu Rong looked at this scene with disdain and said.
"Grandpa, you make it sound like your first time using a talisman went much better than I ever did. I almost got crushed to death."
Gu Xuan glanced at Gu Rong and said.
"Grandpa, I couldn't help myself, could I?"
Gu Rong scratched his head somewhat awkwardly.
"Hey, let's not talk about this anymore. It seems like this old guy will need some time to adjust. Xuan'er, let's discuss how to handle this treasure land."
After realizing that Dugu Bo wouldn't be able to recover from his excited state anytime soon, Gu Rong stopped paying attention to him.
This would remind him of the first time he used the Horse Talisman, although... it certainly wouldn't be too different.
So he quickly changed the subject.
"There are many rare and precious natural treasures here, and they are of high quality. In the future, I will not need to apply for cultivation resources from the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School. I can just take them directly from here."
After arriving at the Yin-Yang Well of Ice and Fire, Gu Xuan had already decided on his future cultivation path.
First of all, I won't claim the resources from the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School.
Although it was a benefit brought to him by Gu Rong's status, he wasn't stupid to choose inferior products over better ones.
It would also allow us to distance ourselves from the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School, so why not?
"No problem, the herbs here look extraordinary, definitely several times better than those in the sect."
Gu Rong nodded in agreement, saying that, like Ning Fengzhi, he naturally hoped to provide Gu Xuan with the best resources.
"Also, I plan to cultivate here from now on, so it doesn't matter whether I go back to the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School or not."
Gu Xuan could clearly feel just how much this place enhanced his cultivation.
This is something that even the volcano-mimicking training room built for him by the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School cannot compare to.
The only problem is the issue of reputation.
But does he need to care about his reputation?
Moreover, if anyone were to say anything, Ning Fengzhi would nip it in the bud without him having to lift a finger.
"Ah! This..."
Gu Rong was stunned when he heard that Gu Xuan wanted to stay here to cultivate. He knew that the flame particles were active here, but what about the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School?
It should be noted that the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School spent a great deal of money to build a volcano-mimicking cultivation room for Gu Xuan.
It can be said that besides the standard soul bone, Ning Fengzhi provided Gu Xuan with some other things he could offer.
Gu Xuan is preparing to leave and not return to the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School. In Gu Rong's opinion, is this a bit inappropriate?
"Grandpa, I don't mean to sever ties with the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School."
Although Uncle Ning favors Ning Rongrong, he has never mistreated me. Unless unforeseen circumstances arise, I do not intend to leave the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School directly.
Although Gu Xuan didn't care, he didn't want to be labeled as a traitor and an ingrate.
But he didn't want to stay in the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School, stuck in this limbo.
Rather than tormenting my mind at the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School, I'd rather just leave that stormy land.
This would allow him to focus on his cultivation while minimizing the fading of his remaining affection for the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School.
Gu Rong looked at Gu Xuan and opened his mouth, but ultimately didn't say anything more.
He knew that Gu Xuan would feel uncomfortable staying in the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School.
He wasn't comfortable staying there either, but he had the emotional bond that the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School had maintained over the years, and he wouldn't leave the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School unless it was a matter of great importance.
But Gu Xuan is different. He no longer hates the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School; his feelings for it have probably been almost completely worn away.
Given his grandson's unwillingness to suffer losses, if he really stayed at the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School for a longer period of time...
That would truly mean severing all ties with the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School, and it's even possible that they would turn against each other.
"Alright, but are you sure this place is really suitable for your cultivation?"
After all, it's not just fire element that's active here; ice element is also exceptionally abundant. Won't that affect you?
Since getting too close can cause conflict, it's better to maintain a greater distance to create beauty.
Perhaps the relationship between Gu Xuan and Ning Rongrong will improve if they are no longer in the same place.
"It won't have much of an impact, after all, it's just a little ice."
Gu Xuan waved his hand gently, but his gaze was fixed on the spring of the Ice and Fire Yin-Yang Well.
He didn't know if it was because of his Martial Soul Saint Lord Dragon attribute, but ever since he came here, he had felt an attraction inexplicably influencing him.
That power originated from the Yin-Yang Well of Ice and Fire.
Or rather, the souls of the two true dragons slumbering within the Yin-Yang Well of Ice and Fire.
After all, although Shendu is a fire demon, he is also one of the top true dragons in Jackie Chan's world.
It is the true dragon, recognized by all twelve zodiac animals.
Although it is just a stone sculpture now, the dragon vein fluctuations on it are definitely not weak.
Perhaps that's why the two dragon souls noticed him.
Seeing that Gu Xuan insisted, Gu Rong didn't say anything more, but instead led Gu Xuan to stroll around the Yin-Yang Well of Ice and Fire.
"Come, come, Xuan'er, let Grandpa teach you how to prepare some medicines. Although you are knowledgeable and have read countless books, some secret medicine recipes are never in the library."
"With the medicinal herbs here and the recipes your grandfather taught you, you'll be able to concoct your own cultivation potions in the future."
After seeing the situation at the Yin-Yang Well of Ice and Fire, Gu Rong decided that this place was an important strategic location for his Gu family.
Apart from the Gu family, no one else should know what's going on here, not even Afu.
As the original owner, Dugu Bo can freely enter and exit with Gu Xuan's permission, but outsiders must never be allowed to know anything about the situation here.
Wealth is a powerful motivator. There are so many rare and precious materials here that even the entire Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School's wealth combined is not as valuable as these rare and precious materials.
It's just that Dugu Bo didn't know the value of things, otherwise he would have been crying in the toilet.
