I saw a dazzling array of precious medicinal herbs and fruits.
Treasures such as blood lingzhi and silver-leaf grass that are worth thousands of dollars in the outside world are everywhere here and can be seen everywhere.
Moreover, every herb grows extremely strong, with luxuriant branches and leaves, and is full of vitality. It is obvious that every herb growing in this valley has a good age.
Each medicinal plant exudes vitality and aura. Even just taking a sip makes you feel refreshed. It is like a fairyland on earth, which is dazzling.
And the uniqueness of this valley doesn't end there.
The most shocking thing is a lake in the center of the valley, guarded by these medicinal herbs and spiritual fruits.
It is obviously a whole lake, but the lake water inside is clearly divided into two parts: the lake water on one side is ice white, constantly exuding a light white cold air.
The lake water on the other side was fiery red, constantly sending out billowing heat waves into the air. The light above also became distorted as the heat continued to rise.
Red and white.
Ice and fire.
Obviously they are two completely opposite attributes, but they maintain a stable balance in this lake. The red and white colors are clearly separated, as if there is no intersection.
Such a strange sight is rare in the world.
And this is one of the three major treasure basins, the Ice and Fire Eyes!
The rich breath of life spreads from the center of the lake to the surroundings, filling all the spaces in the entire valley. And nourished by this breath, those medicinal herbs and spiritual fruits naturally thrive.
How could this be a dangerous place?
It is clearly a paradise on earth!
"how come?!"
"What a rich vitality of heaven and earth!"
"This...this place is truly a treasure!"
"Aren't those many green phosphorus flowers outside specially used to protect this treasure place?"
"..."
For a moment, Ma Xiaotao and others' eyes were dull.
Everyone was shocked by the scene in front of them.
Looking at the densely packed medicinal materials and spiritual fruits in front of them, everyone couldn't help but rub their eyes. The change in front of them was so dreamy that they couldn't help but stay in place.
Even Su Luoheng, who had expected the scene in the Ice and Fire Eyes, was also amazed after seeing the real scene inside, as well as the rich vitality and life force of heaven and earth.
Snow Emperor looked at the lake in the center of the valley, his eyes flashing slightly.
You've seen the difference here, and that's it.
"This is……"
"Is it the eyes of ice and fire..."
Su Luoheng murmured, a hint of trance and excitement flashed across his expression.
Under the visual impact of so many spiritual fruits and jelly grass, it is inevitable.
But soon, his eyes changed slightly.
He suppressed the excitement in his heart and became serious instead.
Tang San!
Don't forget, you entered here because of him.
You know, there is no free lunch in the world. If you want to get something, you need to pay the corresponding price.
And with Tang San's character, he would definitely not do a loss-making business. Now that he has brought himself into such a treasured place, he must be plotting something of corresponding value to him, or even higher.
For example, the power of destiny in him.
And these are what he should pay attention to.
Tang San's threat was not comparable to that of poisonous miasma.
Make one wrong move and you might fall into a trap.
Entering the Eye of Ice and Fire does not mean that the crisis is over. On the contrary, the real danger has just begun. Tang San's methods are insidious and vicious, and once he is in trouble, it will be difficult to escape.
so--
You must be careful every step you take!
"..."
Thinking of this, Su Luoheng took a deep breath.
While reminding everyone to act with caution, he also conveyed the problems in Binghuo Liangyi's eyes to the Snow Emperor as a precautionary measure.
"Sister Xue, the ultimate ice shield can be lifted. There is no danger here except some special herbs, and there is no poisonous gas."
"Um."
Snow Emperor nodded slightly.
Immediately, he raised his hand and waved, and the ultimate ice shield covering everyone dissipated, turning into wisps of ice-blue mist, which quickly dissipated between the sky and the earth.
"Let's go and take a look first."
"..."
After saying this, the group of people officially entered the Liangyi Eye.
Try not to damage the surrounding treasures along the way.
As everyone entered, many plants began to sway slightly towards Su Luoheng and his group, and at the same time, their bodies glowed with fluorescence.
It seems that in the terrain of the Ice and Fire Eyes, in addition to accelerating the growth rate of plants, it can also stimulate the intelligence of these plants in advance and promote them to plant-type soul beasts.
"..."
I don't know when, a faint fragrance suddenly wafted in, making people unable to help but be intoxicated.
At first, Ma Xiaotao and others thought this was a special attack method and tried to expel it from their minds. But the strange thing was that this fragrance merged with the body after being inhaled, and there was no trace of its existence at all.
Moreover, this aroma is refreshing. After inhaling it, my mind becomes clear and my spirit is lifted. I immediately feel an indescribable sense of comfort.
"Um?"
Snow Emperor suddenly noticed something and his eyes narrowed slightly.
Not far ahead, I saw a strange large pink flower suddenly light up. Immediately afterwards, a pink barrier centered on the flower and rapidly expanded to all sides.
Su Luoheng and others were about to be enveloped in it at a glance.
Just as the Snow Emperor was about to take action, Su Luoheng's voice sounded.
【Sister Xue, don’t do anything yet.】
[It’s not too late to take action after looking at their purpose.]
【……】
Hearing this, the Snow Emperor nodded lightly and at the same time dispersed the soul power offensive. In this way, the pink barrier, including everyone, covered the entire open space with a diameter of ten feet.
"What is this?"
"Are we trapped by it?"
"..."
At this moment, the petals of the large pink flower bloomed one after another, and the fragrance was stronger than before. As the stamens emitted a dazzling brilliance, a clear voice sounded.
"Congratulations, humans."
"You are lucky to be here."
"Plants... spoke??"
"Speaking human words? Is it a hundred thousand year old soul beast?!"
Seeing this, the expressions of Ma Xiaotao and others changed slightly.
However, after seeing Emperor Xue's calm reaction, his mood eased.
What about a hundred thousand year old plant soul beast?
They have the 700,000-year-old Snow Emperor, the Lord of the Far North, on their side. As long as it takes action, it is delivering food.
"I am not a hundred thousand year soul beast."
The petals of the large pink flower open and close slightly, with a gentle sound.
It seems that it has no hostility towards anyone.
"Ultimate ice?"
"I see, you have an aura similar to Ice Eyes. No wonder you can bring so many people to break through the Jade Phosphorous Poison Formation outside and come here."
The pink flower noticed the Snow Emperor and Su Luoheng, and after feeling the aura of extreme ice on the Snow Emperor, she suddenly said.
"..."
Ma Xiaotao and others are led by Su Luoheng and Snow Emperor. Neither of them has the intention to speak now, and they can't figure out the situation at hand, so they naturally remain silent.
Just like that, the situation fell into silence for a while.
After waiting for a while and no one asked, the pink flower finally lost her temper and took the initiative to speak.
"Aren't you curious about where this is?"
"Not curious."
"Aren't you curious about my identity?"
"Not curious."
"Aren't you curious about where the Jade Phosphorous Poison Formation outside comes from?"
"Not curious."
"Aren't you curious why I can speak human words, but say that I am not a hundred thousand year soul beast?"
"Not curious."
"..."
In response, Su Luoheng shook his head with a calm expression.
He may not necessarily know less about the Ice and Fire Eyes than this flower.
As for the three consecutive questions about the big pink flower, Snow Emperor didn't even have a superfluous expression.
"you!!"
"How could you do this!!"
The big pink flower was so choked that she almost lost her breath.
His tone couldn't help but become a little angry.
It obviously didn't expect to encounter such a situation. Shouldn't they ask themselves questions and then it would answer the questions? Why don't these humans play their cards according to the routine?
Especially the ultimate ice and the human being who responded.
One is not curious, the other just treats himself as nothing!
In the eyes of Binghuo Liangyi, does it deserve this kind of treatment?
For a moment, the big pink flower shook violently in annoyance, making its branches, leaves and petals rattle.
It wanted to teach these humans a lesson, but considering that person's original arrangements and entrustments to it, it was not easy to act rashly against these humans who were suspected of being that person's descendants.
Suddenly, it thought of the assessment left by that person.
How to determine the assessment is not what it says. Even if the difficulty is appropriately increased by then, no one will know, right?
"..."
When I think about it, my mood instantly becomes much smoother.
So the big pink flower suppressed her emotions, and her tone returned to its original gentleness. Regardless of whether Su Luoheng was curious or not, she just explained to everyone on her own.
"This is the Eye of Ice and Fire. That person said that this is one of the three major cornucopias in the world. The growth rate of plants here is ten times that of the outside world."
"..."
"As for my identity, that person said that I am a fairy herb, and called me Youxiang Qiluo Xianpin. You can just call me Youyou. This is the name I gave myself."
"So with the nourishment of the two eyes of ice and fire, although I am actually only ten thousand years old, my abilities have reached the level of a hundred thousand year old soul beast. I can naturally speak human words."
"..."
"Originally, according to that person's instructions, you should have been expelled for trespassing here. But since you were able to get here through the surrounding Jade Phosphorous Poison Formation, it seems that you are destined to be here."
"Therefore, I do not care about your offense."
"According to that person, you are destined to be together. However, he once left a rule, saying that this is a paradise and must not be allowed to be known to bad humans. Therefore, a test is needed to test the character of the mind."
"As long as one of you can pass the test, you can take any of the herbs as a reward. But if you fail, you will have to stay here forever."
"Of course, you can also choose to leave on your own."
The conversation changed, and Youyou's tone dropped.
"But in that case, according to what that person said, we can handle it."
"I can't guarantee whether you will spread the news about the Ice and Fire Eyes. Although we have the ability to protect ourselves, there are too many of you humans. I don't know if we can protect this place."
"So in order not to expose the location of the Ice and Fire Eyes, we have no choice but to take action. If you have the ability to break out of our siege, you can also leave."
"..."
Youyou's voice is still gentle.
But the threat contained in it is self-evident.
As soon as she finished speaking, Youyou suddenly felt locked by a chill. But before she could find out the source, it had already dissipated into nothingness. It was as if it had never appeared before.
Youyou just thought it was an illusion and didn't care.
So, it spoke again.
"So, what are your options?"
"I agree to your assessment."
Su Luoheng answered in a leisurely voice.
He wanted to know what Tang San was planning, and he did not hesitate to use the celestial grass of the Ice and Fire Eyes as bait to get him involved. So he followed the trend and followed Youyou's request.
Hearing this, the Snow Emperor's eyes flashed slightly.
After receiving the message, she already knew the plan.
The previous chill was released by the Snow Emperor. She originally wanted to teach this little guy who didn't know the heights of the world a lesson. But after knowing Su Luoheng's arrangement, she didn't take action.
“Smart choice~”
"There are two rounds of assessment. The first round is to absorb medicinal herbs."
"In that case, let's get started! Let me think about which herb I should give you~"
"..."
Youyou's tone became lighter.
The pink flower head was shaking his head, and it seemed that he was in a good mood now.
"Well, your eyes are a little special~"
"In that case, let's eat this!"
As soon as he finished speaking, a ray of purple light shot out from the stamens, reaching a hundred meters away in the blink of an eye. After a slight pause, the purple light landed in front of Su Luoheng with a medicinal herb.
It was an inconspicuous herb, all green. If placed outside, it would be no different from an ordinary weed. The only strange thing is the three snow-white leaves in the center of the herb.
There are a few drops of water in the center of the leaves, just like the dew left in the morning. But this is definitely not ordinary morning dew, but the condensation of the herb itself.
Although Youyou's sense of Su Luoheng and his party was not very good, but with Tang San's orders, the most it could do was make things difficult for them in later assessments, as they would not act haphazardly on the fairy grass.
"No, just eat this~"
"If you can successfully absorb it, even if you have completed the first round of assessment, you can start now."
"..."
Su Luoheng took the herb and looked stunned.
Actually giving yourself a benefit?
Three white leaves and dew, such distinctive features, are naturally the fairy herbs that both Tang San and Huo Gua absorbed in the original work: Seeing Through the Autumn Dew!
Although it does not significantly improve the soul power, it can significantly improve the eyes. In the original work, Huo Yuhao used the ability to see through autumn dew to awaken his spiritual eyes and obtain double pupils.
But……
Tang San would actually give him benefits?
Isn't he afraid that he will eat everything and run away directly?
