Chapter 23 The Yin-Yang Well of Ice and Fire! The Supreme Demon King Protects the Dream of Heaven!
A surge of spiritual energy emanated from Lin Fan.
As a Super Douluo, Yue Guan could naturally sense this mental fluctuation and frowned, asking, "What's wrong with you...?"
Before Chrysanthemum Douluo could finish asking, Lin Fan replied directly, "This is a new ability I developed after absorbing my second spirit ring. It's called Mental Detection."
"As soon as you arrived at Sunset Forest, you went straight to the core area. What exactly are you looking for?" Yue Guan continued to press.
"Keep it a secret for now, Elder Ju. Just know that this is good for you," Lin Fan said mysteriously.
After an hour, they finally found the area shrouded in poisonous mist. Several soul beasts were guarding the perimeter. These soul beasts had fierce eyes, but the one with the highest cultivation level was only ten thousand years old.
"Elder Ju, please drive away those troublesome soul beasts." Lin Fan unleashed his Death Domain. The domain wasn't very large, only 5 meters in diameter, but it was enough to cover both Lin Fan and Yue Guan.
Within the Death Domain, the Death Spider King's venom spread. Yue Guan, being an ally, was unaffected.
"This green poison looks familiar..." Yue Guan murmured to himself, casually throwing out a few soul skills that instantly cleared the path.
Lin Fan tried using the Death Domain to separate the poisonous fog, and to his surprise, it worked. The domain acted like an invisible shield, keeping the toxic gas out as they moved forward.
They successfully passed through the array and arrived at a secluded, misty valley. Since Lin Fan couldn't fly, he had Yue Guan activate his martial soul and carry him down on the giant Qirong Tongtian Chrysanthemum.
"A basin... hot springs... such abundant ice and fire power..." Yue Guan murmured. "Lin Fan, it seems you've found an extraordinary place!"
Before long, they arrived at the valley floor. Yue Guan immediately looked at the strange hot spring in the center, which was interwoven with blue and red colors. Cold air and hot waves surged alternately.
Moreover, there were a large number of rare immortal herbs around them. Upon closer inspection, Yue Guan realized that the herb next to him was actually the Yearning Heartbreak Red!
Yue Guan quickly squatted down, his hand slowly approaching the king of immortal plants. This flower-loving Title Douluo's eyes immediately became infatuated, as if the rest of the world had ceased to exist.
"It's actually the Yearning Heartbreak Red! If I could get it... I could even reach the Limit Douluo realm!" Yue Guan's voice trembled. His usual elegant demeanor was replaced by an almost insane desire.
As his hand drew closer, he let out a strange sound of pure excitement. At this moment, he was no longer the high and mighty Elder of Spirit Hall, but a child who had just seen his favorite toy.
Seeing Yue Guan's expression, Lin Fan was both amused and exasperated. He never expected the usually composed Chrysanthemum Douluo to lose it so much over an immortal herb. Lin Fan shook his head and continued to observe his surroundings.
Suddenly, they spotted a green figure. Dugu Bo was standing there, staring at them in stunned silence.
The owner was home!
"Uh, well... good evening, Senior Dugu..." Lin Fan started.
But Dugu Bo ignored him and charged forward with his martial soul activated. In a moment of panic, Lin Fan had to kick Yue Guan—who was still in a trance—to snap him out of it.
"Yue Guan! Deal with Dugu Bo first, then we'll continue!"
"Seventh Soul Skill, Martial Soul True Form!" Yue Guan was furious! He was almost touching the herb when he was interrupted.
The spirit rings beneath his feet flashed wildly. His second soul skill, Self-Admiration, was activated instantly, boosting his stats. Immediately afterward, his third soul skill, Aura Barrier, unleashed countless petals that enveloped Dugu Bo.
Within this barrier, Dugu Bo's movements were severely restricted. Without hesitation, Yue Guan followed up with his eighth soul skill: Gate of Holy Light!
A gigantic, phantom-like chrysanthemum appeared, unleashing a dazzling golden beam of light toward Dugu Bo.
Dugu Bo's expression turned grim. He hadn't expected Yue Guan to be so reckless, launching such a fierce offensive right from the start.
"Damn it, you freak, are you insane?!" Dugu Bo cursed loudly. "Head Soul Bone Skill, Medusa's Gaze!"
Two eerie beams of light shot from his eyes, petrifying Yue Guan's attacks in mid-air. The golden beam solidified into stone and shattered.
Yue Guan didn't care. He summoned two giant blades using his petals and charged forward. Dugu Bo also activated his Martial Soul True Form to meet him. They fought in mid-air, both instinctively avoiding the precious herbs below.
Lin Fan watched from below. It was clear Dugu Bo was outmatched. One was a level 91 Title Douluo, while the other was a level 95 Super Douluo!
Dugu Bo thought to himself, "To catch the thief, first catch the king." He decided to target the kid who had kicked Yue Guan, hoping to distract the Super Douluo.
Seizing an opportunity, he used his Jade Phosphor Serpent Emperor to hold off Yue Guan while he pounced directly toward Lin Fan.
The idea was right, but it was too late!
The top-tier demon king, Guardian of Tianmeng, had logged in!
"Tianmeng, borrow my body to fight! Use your own source power," Lin Fan asked anxiously in his mind.
"No problem. It's just that you'll be weak for a while.
I'll do it gently, don't resist~" Tianmeng said with a strange laugh.
Lin Fan's black eyes suddenly changed color. The deep pupils turned white in an instant—a cold, ancient white like eternal ice.
