Chapter 40 Dugu Fu carelessly loses the Immortal Herb, Su Mo refines his golden body with ice and fire.
Seeing Dugu Bo's astonishment, Su Mo's heart finally settled down.
He was genuinely afraid that Dugu Bo would be completely unafraid of this, in which case he would have no choice but to resort to violence.
Su Mo smiled faintly and replied, "What this thing is is not important; what's important is that I have a way to save you."
Upon hearing this, Dugu Bo's arrogant expression softened slightly, as he knew that the young man before him was no ordinary person.
He frowned slightly and asked, "How did you know I was poisoned?"
Su Mo smiled slightly, stared intently into Dugu Bo's eyes, and said seriously:
"I not only know that you have been poisoned, but I also know that when it is cloudy or rainy, you will experience a tingling and itchy sensation in your ribs, which will become stronger and stronger and last for more than an hour."
"I also know that around midnight, you will experience needle-like stabbing pains in your head and the soles of your feet, along with spasms throughout your body, lasting for at least half an hour."
Upon hearing this, Dugu Bo's pupils contracted in shock. Apart from himself, no one else knew about these things.
How did the boy in front of me determine that he was poisoned, and how did he pinpoint the location of his illness?
His expression grew increasingly grim, and he soon conceived the idea of killing.
However, Su Mo's ten Fiery Sun Serpent inner cores rendered his martial soul devoid of any desire to fight, making it extremely difficult for him to even unleash the Azure Phosphorous Serpent Emperor.
He had no choice but to suppress his murderous intent and force a smile, saying, "What exactly do you want? I can't even cure my own illness, so how could you possibly have a solution?"
Su Mo breathed a sigh of relief when he saw Dugu Bo finally admit to being poisoned.
He was genuinely afraid that Dugu Bo would insist he wasn't sick, in which case he wouldn't be able to do anything about it.
Su Mo tried his best to make his words sincere, and smiled, "I just want to help you get better, that's all."
Dugu Bo looked at Su Mo suspiciously and asked, "Help me cure my illness? What benefit will that bring you?"
Su Mo's heart skipped a beat, and she mustered her courage to speak her request: "I've heard that you have a medicinal herb garden. All I need is for me to pick some herbs from there."
"Just picking some herbs?"
Dugu Bo countered with a question.
He knew that the herb garden Su Mo mentioned was the Yin-Yang Well of Ice and Fire, but the herbs inside were all poisonous and could not be compared with the poison he had been afflicted with.
He had tried some of the herbs, but those attempts brought him unforgettable pain.
"That's right, you only need to pick a few."
Su Mo's tone was somewhat excited. It seemed that this Poison Douluo really didn't recognize the immortal herb, so wouldn't he be able to pick it at will?
After thinking about it for a long time, Dugu Bo finally agreed.
He had been tormented for too long, and he was determined to try it out, regardless of whether the boy in front of him was telling the truth or not.
"Okay, come with me."
Dugu Bo turned and walked towards the Ice and Fire Yin-Yang Eye. He only knew that cultivating here would increase his speed several times over and suppress the poison in his body, but he knew nothing about its other effects.
Su Mo followed behind Dugu Bo and used the Dragon Soul Protection without hesitation.
He had no trust in Dugu Bo at all; who knew if Dugu Bo would suddenly make a move?
After passing through the poisonous miasma, Su Mo finally saw the Ice and Fire Yin-Yang Eye that he had been longing for.
Around the Yin-Yang Eye, numerous immortal herbs resembled little girls, waiting for Su Mo to pick them.
Dugu Bo took in Su Mo's reaction. He couldn't understand why Su Mo was so happy. Although he was an expert in poisons, he didn't know much about herbs.
He confidently declared, "As long as you help me get rid of the poison, you can pick any herbs you like from the entire herb garden."
Su Mo smiled slightly and said, "How about I pick two plants first as a deposit?"
Upon hearing this, Dugu Bo's expression changed drastically.
But after careful consideration, I agreed.
The pain every night was unbearable for him. Since he didn't recognize any of the herbs in the garden, if Su Mo could...
"OK."
Dugu Bo said in a deep voice.
Su Mo was overjoyed and walked towards the center of the Ice and Fire Yin-Yang Eye without the slightest hesitation.
The Eight-Cornered Ice Grass grows at the center of the cold Yin Spring, while the Fiery Apricot Blossom is located at the center of the blazing Yang Spring.
The two herbs, one ice and one fire, complement each other and must be taken together to neutralize their potent toxicity.
Without hesitation, Su Mo swallowed the two herbs and then jumped into the spring under Dugu Bo's astonished gaze.
In an instant, two powerful forces surged within Su Mo's body, only to be quickly suppressed by the spring water.
After an unknown amount of time, Su Mo finally absorbed the two immortal herbs completely, greatly increasing his physical strength and making him immune to water and fire.
He leaped out of the spring, and if Dugu Bo hadn't been there, he would have burst into laughter.
Dugu Bo's eyes were strange; he still thought Su Mo had been poisoned to death.
Those two herbs were incredibly domineering, one extremely cold and the other extremely hot, so much so that even he couldn't stay near them for long.
If Su Mo hadn't acted so quickly, he definitely would have stopped him.
"How did you manage to do that?"
Dugu Bo couldn't help but ask a question.
There are too many mysteries surrounding the young man before me. His inner core just now and his consumption of two poisonous herbs are all hard to fathom.
Upon hearing this, Su Mo did not hide anything and said directly:
"Both of these poisonous herbs are highly toxic; either one would be fatal if ingested alone. However, when consumed together, they neutralize each other, greatly reducing their toxicity. Combined with the impact of this spring water, I was able to consume them safely."
Dugu Bo stood there stunned, looking at Su Mo as if he were a monster.
He had lived by this spring for decades and knew absolutely nothing about these two herbs.
What kind of monster is this boy in front of me? How could he know so much about the herbs in my herb garden?
He suppressed his shock and asked calmly, "Now you can help me detoxify, right?"
Su Mo laughed loudly, "Of course!"
"The toxins in your body come from your martial spirit, and it's quite simple to get rid of them."
Dugu Bo hurriedly asked, "How do we solve this?"
His tone was incredibly agitated; he wasn't the only one suffering from the poison, but so was his granddaughter.
Dugu Yan's martial soul is also the Azure Phosphorous Serpent, and sooner or later she will be devoured by the poison.
If the boy in front of him can resolve his own toxins, then the same can be done for his granddaughter.
Su Mo smiled slightly. He knew that Dugu Bo was close to madness, so it seemed that Tang San's mission could only be completed by himself.
"There are two methods. The first is to use rare herbs to make you immune to all poisons, while at the same time weakening your poison skills to almost nothing."
Upon hearing this, Dugu Bo was greatly alarmed. His poison skills were the foundation of his life, and decades of hard work would be destroyed in an instant.
"What is the second method?"
Dugu Bo grabbed Su Mo's collar, his expression somewhat manic.
Su Mo looked at Dugu Bo and smiled, "The second method is to force the toxins in your body into a container, such as a soul bone!"
Dugu Bo raised an eyebrow. He had actually collected quite a few soul bones, so there was no harm in giving them a try.
