On the other side.
Qin Xiao had crossed the outer region shrouded with poisonous gas and officially entered the basin where the Icefire Polarized Eyes were located.
"What a huge mandarin duck pot."
Looking at the two springs in the center of the basin, one blue and one red, Qin Xiao couldn't help but praise.
Then he didn't stay in the same place, he hadn't forgotten the purpose of his trip, which was the Immortal Herbs adjacent to the Icefire Polarized Eyes.
Before long.
Qin Xiao had already arrived near the Icefire Polarized Eyes, surrounded by herbal medicines of the level of Cinnabar Lotus and Cordyceps.
However, Qin Xiao's gaze didn't linger on these herbs; he finally found his first target.
It was an Immortal Herb growing beside the fire spring.
It looked like a big cabbage.
"Blazing Apricot Cabbage."
Qin Xiao's eyes lit up.
He remembered that this herb, paired with another peculiarly cold Immortal Herb, the Octagon Frozen Grass, and then dipped in the Icefire Polarized Eyes, could grant an immunity to ice and fire.
Let's speak plainly, he wanted to give it a try.
Using the Jade Knife he had prepared in advance, he cut off the Blazing Apricot Cabbage and then went to the ice spring, cutting off a white flower with eight corners—exactly the other Immortal Herb he needed, the Octagon Frozen Grass.
But when Qin Xiao held the Octagon Frozen Grass in his hand, he became puzzled.
"According to the original story, this flower is extremely cold, and even Titled Douluo would suffer from its chill poison if they touched it lightly."
"Why? Why do I feel a cool and refreshing sensation, rather comfortable?"
Qin Xiao wondered.
Could it be that my resistance to ice attributes has reached a level that I am no longer afraid of the cold poison?
Soon after, he noticed something else was off.
Subconsciously, he looked at his other hand.
Because he hadn't noticed the legendary fire poison on the Blazing Apricot Cabbage either?
"Could it be that my resistance to fire attributes is also high?"
In fact, Qin Xiao wasn't very much in favor of the so-called immunity claim. There is no such thing as absolute immunity, it's just a matter of not being hot or cold enough.
"Now is not the time to hesitate, after ten breaths the effect of the Immortal Herbs will diminish."
Qin Xiao grabbed the two herbs and feasted on them.
And say what you will, the taste and texture of these things were really good.
They melted in his mouth, emitting a fragrant aroma.
When both herbs were consumed, Qin Xiao felt a sense of longing for more.
But, in the next moment, his complexion changed slightly; he could feel a force erupting inside him.
It was fierce!
"The medicinal effect is kicking in!"
Qin Xiao knew this well and subconsciously began to move towards the Icefire Polarized Eyes.
But...
After taking only two steps, he stopped.
Because the restive force inside him started to settle down...
Then, as if drawn by something, it converged towards Qin Xiao's Dantian Qihai.
"What's going on?"
Qin Xiao sensed something unusual. In an instant, he entered a state of internal vision.
He saw a human-shaped silhouette appear in the Dantian Qihai.
Qin Xiao was stupefied. Wasn't that his Martial Soul?
He also noticed that a red and a blue force were being absorbed by the human-shaped silhouette.
"Goodness, so it's him intercepting the power of Blazing Apricot Cabbage and Octagon Frozen Grass?"
Qin Xiao was shocked. Could it be that his Thunder Emperor Spirit was growing in this way?
Just then, the red and blue energies were completely absorbed by the human silhouette.
At the same time, Qin Xiao had a feeling that he wasn't satiated...
"Really, they say that Immortal Herbs have tremendous energy, and even a Titled Douluo can't handle too much. Yet you've swallowed the power of two kinds of Immortal Herbs in one go, and you're still not satisfied?"
```
Qin Xiao felt that his Martial Soul was a big eater.
But even as he grumbled, joy still filled his heart.
The more Immortal Herbs he could absorb, the greater his potential proved to be, didn't it?
He believed that efforts would always be rewarded, especially when the investment was in himself.
Right away, he began harvesting one Immortal Herb after another.
Crown Phoenix Sunflower, Mystic Heaven Chrysanthemum, Crystal Blood Dragon Ginseng, Piercing Gaze Dew...
No matter what Qin Xiao consumed, the Human-shaped Martial Spirit accepted it all without discrimination.
It seemed that no matter the attribute of the Immortal Herb, they all became pure energy before him, replenishing his own needs...
"I refuse to believe you can eat all the remaining Immortal Herbs too," Qin Xiao thought and took out the Eight-petal Immortal Orchid, stuffing it into his mouth.
Finally.
After absorbing the Eight-petal Immortal Orchid, Qin Xiao's Martial Soul eventually underwent a change.
Mysterious runes began to appear on the Human-shaped Martial Spirit.
Qin Xiao's pupils constricted, and he couldn't help but whisper in his mind, "This is a treasure technique..."
The next moment, Qin Xiao's consciousness became somewhat trance-like, as if he saw an ancient world.
There were nine layers of faint and terrifying phantasms, with a breath that shocked the world.
"Boom!"
In the next moment, the nine layers merged, and a strike of lightning that resembled immortal light descended!
Even further away.
Stars extinguished!
"Nine Heavens Tribulation Light!"
Witness to all this, Qin Xiao's mind conjured the name of this treasure technique!
"Awesome, this treasure technique is way stronger than any Hundred Thousand Year Soul Skill!"
"No."
"In the presence of Nine Heavens Tribulation Light, what count are Hundred Thousand Year Soul Skills?"
At that moment, Qin Xiao felt that the soul skill he obtained in exchange for a vast amount of Immortal Herbs was worth it.
Although his Cultivation Level had not improved, his combat strength had skyrocketed.
...
"What, President Meng, are you telling the truth?"
"How could there be such a young Titled Douluo in the world?"
Within the Heaven Dou Imperial Palace, Dream Divine Machine recounted the happenings at Sky Dou Royal Academy to the Crown Prince Xue Qinghe of the present Tiandou Empire.
Indeed, as he had expected, Xue Qinghe was immensely shaken.
"Your Highness, I did not deceive you, this matter is absolutely true."
Dream Divine Machine made an oath signifying gesture, "It's not just me, Zhi Lin and Bai Baoshan can also testify. If it weren't for Prince Xue Xing and Prince Xue Beng's narrow-mindedness, our Tiandou Empire could have gained another Titled Douluo Level guest elder."
"Your Highness would have gained another Titled Douluo Level aid!"
Bringing up this matter made his heart bleed.
Xue Qinghe's gaze flickered as he said in a deep voice, "Indeed, Prince His Highness and Xue Beng acted improperly. However, neither Uncle Wang nor Xue Beng are within my power to punish. President Meng, would you mind accompanying me to see my father, the emperor, to report this matter?"
In fact, after hearing Dream Divine Machine's words, Xue Qinghe felt relieved.
He even felt a bit happy.
Xue Xing and Xue Beng, those fools, in an attempt to weaken me, had actually turned away such a powerful figure?
It must be said, well done!
"If Emperor Xue Ye knew about this, he would probably cough up blood in anger, wouldn't he?" Xue Qinghe thought to himself, looking forward to Emperor Xue Ye's reaction upon learning of this matter.
Of course.
He also wouldn't pass up the chance to firmly suppress Prince Xue Xing and Prince Xue Beng.
On hearing this, Dream Divine Machine was initially stunned, then responded with conviction, "I am willing to accompany Your Highness to see His Majesty and explain the events. I want to request His Majesty to severely punish Prince Xue Xing and Prince Xue Beng..."
"Your Highness, to be honest, I even suspect that Prince Xue Xing and Prince Xue Beng have been turned by Xingluo Empire or Martial Soul Hall, deliberately weakening our Tiandou's strength."
