Chapter 77: Refining the Body with Ice and Fire
Dugu Bo said it wasn't that he couldn't tell these things were good; he was just being cautious.
Stone Monkey Sun Qi didn't argue.
Dugu Bo's situation wasn't suitable for casually using these magical herbs.
Especially since he was a lone ranger, nothing special could move him, so he'd rather let these magical herbs fall to his hands than use them.
This mentality was quite normal.
However, he did have a weak spot: Dugu Yan.
Stone Monkey Sun Qi had found the key to solving his internal toxin problem for him, and it was a lifesaver for Dugu Yan.
"Actually, I think those two are the good ones," Stone Monkey Sun Qi pointed to two magical herbs at either end of the spring.
Dugu Bo looked at the two magical herbs, and his mouth twitched.
"These two are truly poisonous, so don't touch them."
Stone Monkey Sun Qi said, "If the power of ice and fire is balanced, and the medicinal properties are perfectly integrated into the body, perhaps the Soul Master will gain unimaginable benefits. Of course, Senior, you definitely wouldn't dare to try it."
"Do you dare?"
Stone Monkey Sun Qi nodded, then shook his head.
"I dare, but I don't need it."
His original plan was to chain the golden body with ice and fire himself, and then give the Strange Velvet Sky Chrysanthemum to his twin bodies.
However, after actually coming here and experiencing it, he gave up on the ice and fire chain.
He found that he didn't seem to need the two magical herbs to chain the golden body.
He hadn't paid much attention to Xiao Sun when he faced attribute damage before, but now he suddenly realized that Xiao Sun seemed to have a very high resistance to the elements, and being here could directly help him transform and absorb the power of ice and fire.
Invulnerable to the four disasters?
Of course, he is still a long way from being truly invulnerable, but with this foundation and this talent, perhaps he doesn't need the two kinds of magical herbs to complete the Ice and Fire Chain Golden Body on his own.
Strange Velvet Sky Chrysanthemum, Vajra Indestructible Body.
After practicing, perhaps he can try to get close to the spring, use the ice and fire power of the spring to temper Xiao Sun, and let him try to chain the golden body on his own.
"Then let's go for the Earth Dragon Golden Gourd and Qiluo Tulip," Stone Monkey Sun Qi made the decision.
"Senior, this earth attribute one you recommended, and this one."
Stone Monkey Sun Qi pointed.
There was no way; he couldn't reveal his knowledge of magical herbs.
"Huh, you kid, you still have a conscience," Dugu Bo looked at the Qiluo Tulip, knowing that this was the magical herb Stone Monkey Sun Qi chose for the Seven Treasure Glazed Tower.
"Write a letter, and I will deliver it to you personally."
Stone Monkey Sun Qi didn't waste time, following his agreement with Dugu Bo. He wrote down the contents and drew pictures based on the two magical herbs.
Dugu Bo saw this but didn't stop him.
His own knowledge was limited, and he could only rely on his senses and knowledge of pharmacology to infer the effects of these rare treasures. Perhaps powerful sects with deep roots like the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect had knowledge of the corresponding magical herbs.
If so, he would definitely try to obtain the corresponding information.
"Alright, I'll go deliver the message. You, boy, stay here and don't move. There are many poisons here. Any one of them could kill you instantly, and you wouldn't last until I get back."
"Don't worry, Senior. I don't want to die yet."
Dugu Bo left without feeding Stone Monkey Sun Qi the poison pill.
"Try it first."
As soon as Dugu Bo left, Stone Monkey Sun Qi summoned Xiao Sun.
Xiao Sun looked extremely dissatisfied.
"Ming!" (You lied, don't take me with you!)
"Isn't this a good thing for you?" Stone Monkey Sun Qi said with a smile. "Just this one Strange Velvet Sky Chrysanthemum can make you indestructible, and the stick-penetrating technique we developed earlier can also be broken through. Also, can you carefully sense the environment here?"
Xiao Sun listened to Stone Monkey Sun Qi's words, taking in the ice and fire energy here.
"Ming?" (Cultivation speed increased?)
"It's more than just speeding up. Absorb the ice and fire energy into your body, practice according to the technique, and see if it has any effect on your constitution."
Stone Monkey Sun Qi said this, enduring the pain.
Xiao Sun left his body, and his original body was just an ordinary body; his resistance to the ice and fire elements here immediately reduced.
"Ming." (How about I refine it for you first?)
"No, I can still hold on. You try it first. If it works, I'll benefit too."
Xiao Sun didn't hesitate and fully activated the Stone Monkey's technique.
About an hour later, he opened his eyes, a flicker of surprise in his eyes, and leaped to his feet.
"Ming ah?" (Where's he?)
He glanced around and saw that Stone Monkey Sun Qi had retreated to the outskirts of the valley.
He quickly ran to Stone Monkey Sun Qi and described his transformation, and Stone Monkey Sun Qi immediately drew him back into his body.
After a while, he summoned Xiao Sun once more.
"Yes, I can feel it too. My body's resistance to the elements of ice and fire is increasing," Stone Monkey Sun Qi said. "Go and practice as close to the spring as you can. While Dugu Bo is away, I'll build up my resistance."
Stone Monkey Sun Qi was rather helpless.
It turns out that the only one who can withstand the power of ice and fire here is Xiao Sun, and it has nothing to do with him.
Once Xiao Sun leaves the body, he simply can't bear it.
Of course, Xiao Sun's physique is not directly able to resist the power of ice and fire, but he has a special talent that can refine this kind of alien energy. In the process of refining, the effect of tempering the body with the help of the alien energy will be fed back to Stone Monkey Sun Qi.
This is a feature of the Out-of-Body Spirit.
The changes that occur in the Spirit will be fed back to the Soul Master after returning to the Soul Master's body.
Strictly speaking, the tempering of the power of ice and fire that Xiao Sun received was the effect of the outside world on him.
After being transformed into benefits, as long as he returns to Stone Monkey Sun Qi's body, he can give him feedback and let Stone Monkey Sun Qi also enjoy the effect of that tempering.
While Xiao Sun went to the valley to refine his body with ice and fire, Stone Monkey Sun Qi also tried to take a few steps inside.
"The improvement is obvious."
He took ten steps deeper before he felt the strain again.
"It's good here too, the vital energy is richer."
He sat cross-legged, absorbing it to cultivate.
Dugu Bo delivered the message quickly, returning to the Yin-Yang Eyes of Ice and Fire in just five days.
He was quite surprised to see Stone Monkey Sun Qi cultivating outside.
"Why are you cultivating outside?"
Stone Monkey Sun Qi opened his eyes and summoned Xiao Sun back.
Xiao Sun was very confused. He opened his eyes and looked around.
"Ming ah?" (What are you pulling me here for?)
"Hmph, an Out-of-Body Spirit..." Dugu Bo quickly understood, "So only when this little monkey is inside you can you withstand the environment inside."
"Senior, how's the deal?"
"That kid Ning Fengzhi is quite decisive. He actually agreed to this deal directly," Dugu Bo smiled.
Stone Monkey Sun Qi breathed a sigh of relief.
That's good.
"The Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect is truly filthy rich. I never could have imagined they could offer me two truly captivating Soul Bones at any moment," Dugu Bo sighed.
Ning Fengzhi's willingness to pay immediately was the most shocking aspect of the situation. He'd assumed the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect would at least have to search the mainland for Soul Bones suitable for him after agreeing to the deal.
