FE—Chapter 105: After the Silver Dragon King Sent the Opportunity, the Second Heavenly Flame
Di Rachel stood up. How could she have a chance to surpass the Great Silver Dragon in terms of bloodline? It seemed that the only way was to absorb a bloodline stronger than that of the Silver Dragon King.
What bloodline was stronger than the Silver Dragon King? It was Huo Yuhao's Ancient Void Dragon Bloodline.
Di Rachel lowered her head and thought seriously: "Although this auspicious beast and Yuhao have similar destiny powers, they are not the same."
"How can I have a trace of his Ancient Void Dragon Bloodline? Alas... This is a headache."
Di Rachel shook her head slowly and sighed deeply, feeling that her bloodline wanted to surpass the Great Silver Dragon, but the chances were slim.
Seeing that the auspicious beast looked like it was pondering a difficult problem, the Silver Dragon King smiled softly and said, "Since Huo Yuhao doesn't like other soul beasts transforming..."
"I won't do anything to Huo Yuhao; such an auspicious beast, I have high hopes for you." The Silver Dragon King patted Di Rachel's shoulder and entrusted her with an important task.
After reading the story of Gu Yuena's suicide for love, the Silver Dragon King was in a very sensitive moment.
She believed that as long as she maintained the most cautious attitude toward human feelings, no matter what she did in the future, she would arrive at more rational analyses and decisions.
"Huo Yuhao, I've given you the heart-protecting dragon scales, including the opportunity of the Water and Fire Dragon King."
"But I didn't ask you for anything. This is not a fake, right?"
The Silver Dragon King looked at Huo Yuhao, a faint smile on the corner of her mouth, making it hard to guess what she was thinking.
"It's not fake. Senior Silver Dragon King is good to me," Huo Yuhao nodded, showing a warm and sincere smile.
"Right. Then I ask you, if we go to the God Realm in the future, will you favor human gods?" The Silver Dragon King's eyes flashed with light, and she seemed to care about Huo Yuhao's opinion on this matter.
Huo Yuhao felt a little uneasy when he heard her ask this question. After thinking carefully for a moment, he said, "The scope of human gods is too wide. Even if I want to help your dragon clan, I can't defeat every human god I meet..."
He explained to the Silver Dragon King that all human gods couldn't be insidious or cunning villains; there must be some good gods.
"I don't understand this. You can figure it out yourself." The Silver Dragon King urged Huo Yuhao not to be partial and to treat both sides equally—even if he didn't help the dragon clan defeat human gods.
Huo Yuhao pursed his lips and replied, "Senior Silver Dragon King, I am not shirking my responsibility. It is precisely because I am sincere that I cannot make a promise on such matters."
"For example, the God of Destruction and the Goddess of Life in the God Realm. As far as I know, their bodies are not human, but other innate treasures representing pure destruction and life."
"Senior Silver Dragon King, do you think that the God of Destruction and the Goddess of Life should be regarded as human gods as you suggested?"
After listening to Huo Yuhao's words, the Silver Dragon King found this question difficult to sort out.
She inherited the memory of the Dragon God, so she naturally knew about the God of Destruction and the Goddess of Life. So could it be that the camps of these two God Kings were positioned between the beast gods and the human gods?
The Silver Dragon King blinked, pondered for a moment, and slowly shook her head before saying, "Let's not discuss other human gods for now; just talk about myself and the Asura God."
The Dragon God was cut down by the Asura Demonic Sword. Although she, the Silver Dragon King, was born because of this, the grudge against that sword must be settled.
"Asura God?"
Huo Yuhao's eyes narrowed. Everyone knew that the current Asura God was concurrently the Sea God, Tang San. The grudges and conflicts suddenly became much clearer.
"Senior Silver Dragon King, regarding the Asura God, I have a firm stance," Huo Yuhao said with interest.
The Silver Dragon King smiled. "Let's take a simple example: If I and the Asura God fell into the turbulence of time and space, who would you save? After all, you are a human being. I won't make things difficult for you, and I won't force you to side with me."
She claimed she wouldn't force him, but her next words revealed her true thoughts.
"Either you save me and the Asura God together, or neither of us. It's better to save me and not him."
"But you must not treat me as an outsider and save the Asura God but not me. Do you understand?" The Silver Dragon King looked at him seriously.
Huo Yuhao smacked his lips. This was too clear. If Tang San fell into the turbulence of time and space, he had to seize the opportunity to kick him.
Douluo Dalu 3 unfolded against the backdrop of Tang San being swept away, so Shrek Academy was bombarded by the 12th-level God Killer Fixed Soul Ammunition. It could be seen how vital the Tang Buddha's light was to Shrek. It allowed an academy that teaches students to avoid being annihilated by evil soul masters and to stand on the continent for 20,000 years.
Seeing that Huo Yuhao was slow to respond, the Silver Dragon King frowned slightly and called out softly, "Huo Yuhao, why are you so foolish?"
"My request is not high. It's nothing more than asking you to remain neutral and not help human gods fight against us. I'm not making it hard for you."
Huo Yuhao quickly reassured her: "Senior Silver Dragon King, I will definitely choose to save you in the situations you mentioned just now, and I will also offer the Asura God a few Angry Buddha Lotus Flames."
The Silver Dragon King did not inquire about the Angry Buddha Lotus Flames. She was very satisfied with Huo Yuhao's answer, and her expression eased a little.
"It's good to hear you say this. Don't take sides when you go to the God Realm later."
As she spoke, the Silver Dragon King took out a colorful dragon spiritual fruit from her lapel. It was prepared for Huo Yuhao. She wiped it with her sleeves and held it to her lips.
The spiritual fruit that the Silver Dragon King often ate was quite large. She held it with both hands, and it seemed to cover her entire white cheek.
Huo Yuhao was stunned. Seeing her chewing the spiritual fruit while talking, he felt that something was off.
Wasn't this for him? Why did the Silver Dragon King taste it first?
"Eh? Senior Silver Dragon King..."
The Silver Dragon King slightly opened her mouth, holding the spiritual fruit and pretending to bite it. Hearing Huo Yuhao's voice, her movements paused, and she tilted her head to look at him. "What's the matter?"
"Uh..." Huo Yuhao didn't dare to ask for the spiritual fruit and wanted to hint to the Silver Dragon King instead.
The Silver Dragon King, completely unaware, took a bite directly. She looked at Huo Yuhao, raised her eyebrows, and said, "Do you want to eat it? The spiritual fruit is for you, but don't think you can get it for free."
Huo Yuhao was baffled. He felt she was teasing him.
The Silver Dragon King handed over the dragon spirit fruit and smiled softly, "Okay, take it and eat it. Don't let me down in the future. My skills aren't too shabby either; otherwise, I'll make you look good."
Huo Yuhao accepted the spirit fruit generously: "Senior Silver Dragon King is so kind to me. I have no way to repay you; I am truly ashamed..."
"It's good that you recognize your shame. Be nice to my dragon clan in the future. If there are any good things, I will give them to you every day."
The Silver Dragon King looked at him and added, "Raise your Ancient Void Dragon Bloodline as soon as possible... If you encounter danger, communicate through the heart-protecting dragon scales. I have to return to the Lake of Life now."
Huo Yuhao nodded seriously, "Well, I won't let you down."
The Silver Dragon King took flight. She was clad in a silver dragon-scale dress, and her tall figure transformed into a sharp stream of light as she flew toward the Star Dou Great Forest. In an instant, she reached the sky.
Huo Yuhao took a bite of the dragon spirit fruit and held the heart-protecting dragon scale given to him by the Silver Dragon King.
He looked in the direction where the Silver Dragon King had flown away, wearing an expression that suggested "the most difficult part was accepting the grace of a beautiful dragon."
Di Rachel watched the Silver Dragon King disappear completely before sighing slowly, "The big silver dragon is finally gone. Di Tian is right; she is very soft-hearted."
"She came here aggressively, and then gave us spiritual fruit and dragon scales."
The Silver Dragon King couldn't wait to give away opportunities, and what she took back was the light ball carrying the story of Douluo Dalu III. Di Rachel wished she could read it several times to understand some truths from it.
After eating the spiritual fruit for a while, Huo Yuhao felt that his physical strength had almost recovered.
Di Rachel said happily, "Let's say goodbye to the immortal herbs. This time we came to the Ice and Fire Yin-Yang Well, and we can come here to make up for the lack of spirit souls in the future."
Huo Yuhao nodded. He had no intention of packing up the immortal herbs and taking them away.
The main reason was that he and Di Rachel did not have enough soul rings. If they packed them all and did not absorb the herbs into spirit souls, they would have to eat them directly, which was not cost-effective.
Additionally, the Beautiful Silk Tulip Immortal Herb had previously talked enthusiastically about its counterattack against Tang San. It was somewhat sincere in trying to help more immortal herbs become spirit souls.
Di Rachel and Huo Yuhao finished absorbing the Water and Fire Dragon King. She remembered Dugu Luo, who was silently identifying herbs by comparing them to the atlas.
She waved her hand, "Hi! Dugu Luo, we will deal with your martial soul toxins, and then we will head out."
"Oh, okay." Dugu Luo grabbed a handful of ordinary herbs from the Ice and Fire Yin-Yang Well and trotted over to Di Rachel.
Huo Yuhao felt a little embarrassed and smiled awkwardly, "I was discussing something with the Senior Silver Dragon King just now..."
Dugu Luo smiled happily, "It's okay. You gave me so many detoxification pills to suppress toxins before, and now you brought me to the Ice and Fire Yin-Yang Well. I am very grateful."
"And I said before that if I was lucky enough to come here, I must let you choose the immortal herbs first."
The main reason was that the aura of the Silver Dragon King was too strong. Dugu Luo, scared, dared not approach, for fear of hearing the other party sneer about the secret things she talked about with Huo Yuhao.
Of course, the Silver Dragon King used spiritual control, so outsiders couldn't hear it.
Dugu Luo was very tactful and stayed far away, taking out the atlas to look for some herbs that might be useful.
A few people walked to the front of the Beautiful Silk Tulip Immortal Herb, and Huo Yuhao gestured to Dugu Luo beside him.
"Youyou, she is the descendant of Dugu Bo, the Poison Douluo from ten thousand years ago. Do you know how to solve the toxin problem in her body?"
Youyou shook a few large pink petals, thought for a moment, and said leisurely: "When you just came in, I felt the breath of the jade phosphor serpent venom in her body."
"When Tang San set up the poison array, some descendants of Poison Douluo came here over the past ten thousand years with maps in their hands, trying to find the exact location of the Ice and Fire Yin-Yang Well, but they all died along the way due to the poison miasma."
Dugu Luo suppressed her inner emotions. Although the ancestor of Poison Douluo did not understand immortal herbs, he never picked or destroyed them carelessly. Instead, he used the breath of the Ice and Fire Yin-Yang Well to resist the toxins.
Since Tang San occupied this blessed land, everything had changed. He began nourishing the Jade Phosphorus Flowers of the seven absolute, wanting to make it the back garden of the Tang family.
According to the contents of the "Poison Chapter, Medicine Chapter" left by Tang San here, it was required that one must be a disciple of the Tang Sect to collect a certain amount of immortal herbs.
If it weren't for the Ice Empress paving the way this time and the Silver Dragon King coming later, it might not have gone so smoothly.
Dugu Luo looked at the Beautiful Silk Tulip Immortal Herb and sighed: "Ancestor Dugu Bo left a note that recorded the method Tang San used to cure the toxins in his and Dugu Yan's bodies."
"But that method only treats the symptoms, not the root cause. Most of the descendants died suddenly due to the excessive accumulation of toxins."
Huo Yuhao felt that it was time to share his method with her, which was the poison pill method from Doupo.
The so-called poison pill didn't have a fixed grade, but it was a method to stabilize the toxins in the body, depending on the strength of the toxins.
With the improvement of cultivation, the more toxins there are, the stronger the ability of the same poison pill to stabilize the toxins will be, and eventually a virtuous cycle will form in the body.
Although the detoxification pill Huo Yuhao had given Dugu Luo before could suppress the toxins, detoxifying them was equivalent to weakening the strength in disguise.
Huo Yuhao organized his thoughts and smiled, "Sister Dugu, there is a special method of controlling toxins through the inner elixir called a poison pill. As long as you successfully condense the poison pill and then cultivate the jade phosphor serpent venom to turn it into a jade phosphor inner elixir, the toxins will stabilize."
"But I haven't tried it before, so there may be certain risks."
A glimmer of joy flashed in Dugu Luo's eyes. She was no longer surprised by the astonishing things that happened to Huo Yuhao.
However, she still couldn't suppress her inner joy upon hearing that the other party had a way to completely cure the toxin outbreaks.
For Huo Yuhao, Dugu Luo felt that the risk was minimal, especially since he had successfully absorbed the Water Dragon King.
Compared to the Water and Fire Dragon King, the jade phosphor serpent venom was much easier.
"Yuhao, I agree."
Dugu Luo agreed immediately. She could see no other way to cure it. She only knew the treatment method of Tang San from her ancestor Dugu Bo's notes. She must try Huo Yuhao's poison pill method.
At this moment, Youyou's large pink petals fluttered quickly as she joyfully said, "As for the inner elixir... I have it here."
Youyou was a little proud: "The inner elixir of this Immortal Herb is the nemesis of all toxins on the continent. With just a slight modification by Huo Yuhao, you should be able to create the poison elixir you mentioned."
As she spoke, the center of its pistil flashed with a green light, and a transparent, round elixir with jade light slowly floated up.
Huo Yuhao looked delighted, stretched out his hand to catch the round elixir, and sensed the breath within it—a special sort of vitality.
Di Rachel also found the Beautiful Silk Tulip Immortal Herb more appealing and said with a smile, "Thank you, Youyou. If Yuhao and I need spirit souls in the future, we will give priority to you and remember your contributions."
Youyou was overjoyed and waved her pink petals, "It's okay; take it and use it. Anyway, it won't be of much use if I condense it in my body."
Huo Yuhao nodded slightly and placed the round pill into the storage soul guidance device. At this point, the goal of coming to the Ice and Fire Yin-Yang Well had been successfully achieved.
A message appeared before him for the first time in a long time.
