Chapter 15 Peerless Immortal Herb and the Yin-Yang Eye of Ice and Fire!
Chapter 15 Peerless Immortal Herb and the Yin-Yang Eye of Ice and Fire!
Tang Ren's breathing suddenly stopped at that moment!
He sat bolt upright, his eyes fixed on the scattered parchment sheets. On them, drawn with vermilion and ink lines, were patterns he recognized all too well!
A lush green herb, strangely, has three snow-white leaves in the center, with a few water droplets in the center of the leaves, just like the dew left in the morning!
A very strange fairy herb, its roots and leaves are like a dense, finely combed vine canopy, but at the top is a golden tulip, its rich fragrance giving people a magnificent feeling!
And there's another one... like a large white flower, octagonal in shape, with tiny, sparkling stamens in the center like ice crystals!
What... what is this if not the blueprints for the "Longing for Autumn Dew," the "Exquisite Tulip," and the "Eight-Cornered Ice Grass"?!
In the quiet study, the light from the soul-guided lamp seemed to freeze at this moment.
Tang Ren's heart pounded wildly, as if gripped tightly by an invisible hand. The heavy, rapid thumping sound almost burst through his chest, creating a thunderous roar in the silent night!
His breath caught in his throat, his pupils contracted sharply, and he stared intently at the few seemingly ordinary parchment sheets on the table.
The crimson lines drawn with vermilion and the dark blue outlines depicted with ink seemed to possess a certain magic, firmly drawing his entire mind into them!
He reached out his hand, but his fingertips trembled slightly in mid-air.
It was a tremor mixed with extreme shock, disbelief, and fervent anticipation.
He picked up one of the blueprints with utmost care, as if it were a priceless treasure.
Parchment has a warm and tough texture, far superior to ordinary paper.
The drawings on the blueprints are exquisite, depicting the shape, texture, and even the unique charm of each herb with lifelike detail.
The names that existed only in his memories of his past life have now been transformed into detailed diagrams, lying quietly before his eyes.
Next to each herb, in a simple yet elegant small regular script, are detailed descriptions of its medicinal properties, growing environment, harvesting methods, and contraindications for consumption.
The handwriting is clear and well-organized, and its level of detail far surpasses the scattered fragments in his memory!
He trembled as he flipped to the second page, then the third...
One after another, each parchment recorded four to five kinds of peerless divine ingredients!
"Cockscomb Phoenix Sunflower", "Strange Treasure Sky Chrysanthemum", "Narcissus Jade Bone"... These treasures, enough to drive any Soul Master, or even a Title Douluo, crazy, are now gathered in his hands in such a simple and unadorned way!
This is no longer a simple illustrated guide; it is clearly a complete catalog of immortal treasures!
When his gaze fell on the last and largest parchment, his mind went blank for a moment!
There was no picture of the herb on it, but rather a topographical cross-section.
The entire image is divided by a perfect "S"-shaped curve.
On the left is a crimson world depicted with vermilion, as if lava is flowing on the paper, radiating intense heat.
On the right is a deep blue sky and earth outlined in ink lines, with what appears to be a frozen spring in the picture, exuding a bone-chilling cold.
Red and blue, ice and fire—two completely opposite extreme forces—coexist in a near-perfect way on this drawing, forming a strange yet harmonious Tai Chi symbol.
The Yin-Yang Eye of Ice and Fire!
Without a doubt, this is the topographical map of the Yin-Yang Well of Ice and Fire!
"..."
Tang Ren opened his mouth, but no sound came out.
He froze on the spot, his brain briefly shutting down due to the series of enormous impacts.
He was somewhat at a loss.
He had only held a sliver of hope, hoping to try his luck among the vast sea of old, worn-out items in the marketplace, searching for even the slightest clue about this treasure trove. This was like looking for a needle in a haystack, practically a pipe dream.
But he never expected that the old book he bought on a whim would hide such an earth-shattering secret in its inner lining!
This isn't just good luck; this is an incredible stroke of luck!
Is it...
An absurd yet heart-pounding thought uncontrollably surfaced from the depths of his mind.
Could it be that I, Tang Ren, am the true chosen one of destiny in this world?
Once this thought took root, it grew like wild grass, instantly taking over his entire mind!
While Tang San in his previous life was destined by fate, he was reborn with more complete memories and understanding, and from the very beginning, he gained talents and resources far exceeding those of Tang San.
Now, even this greatest opportunity that should have belonged to Tang San has fallen into his hands ahead of time in such a dramatic way!
If this isn't destiny, then what is it?!
An unprecedented surge of pride and confidence erupted from his chest!
After a long while, Tang Rencai slowly calmed down from the immense joy and shock.
He exhaled a long breath, and the confusion and helplessness in his eyes were replaced by a profound, burning determination.
He carefully folded the several blueprints, which were enough to overturn the entire Soul Master world's understanding, and then took out the most sturdy jade box from his Soul Tool, solemnly placed it inside, and kept it close to his body.
The plan has already taken shape in my mind.
When your soul power reaches level 20 and you need to acquire your second soul ring, that will be the best time to go to Sunset Forest!
If... if Tang Hao could take me there, that would be the best thing ever.
With Haotian Douluo's strength, it wouldn't be difficult for him to enter Dugu Bo's territory and take away the entire Ice and Fire Yin-Yang Well along with all the immortal herbs!
In this way, you can completely seize this incredible opportunity!
Thinking of this, Tang Ren's heart burned with excitement again. But he quickly forced himself to calm down.
He shook his head and stopped thinking about it.
This matter must be handled gradually and patiently; we must not be hasty.
My current soul power is only level sixteen, and I still need a considerable amount of time to cultivate and mature before reaching the level twenty bottleneck.
Moreover, given that his father, Tang Hao, is currently wanted by the Spirit Hall, it is indeed not advisable for him to make too many public appearances on the mainland.
You have to eat one bite at a time, and you have to go step by step.
The most urgent task is to enhance our strength!
Only by possessing sufficient strength can one truly grasp this immense fortune in one's own hands!
Having figured all this out, the last trace of restlessness in Tang Ren's eyes subsided, replaced by a calm and serene demeanor.
He tidied up the books on the table, sat cross-legged back on the futon, closed his eyes, and entered a meditative state.
