28 Immortal Herbs

After checking his status he saw that his Twelve Spider Lances now had red and blue lights moving through it. It was the second evolution for his Twelve Spider Lances with the first being when it became a Hundred Thousand year Spirit Bone. Its poison was now upgraded to that of the Octagonal Mysterious Ice Grass and the Infernal Delicate Apricot along with the Ultimate attribute. This made him have the strongest poison in the continent but due to him being a Spirit Ancestor he was still unable to contend against a Titled Douluo with it.

But he was still able to skip a few ranks and contend with an early stage Spirit King that along with his other rank crossing abilities he could even contend with a mid or a late stage Spirit King and if he is a little lucky and with proper planning then even an early stage Spirit Emperor isn't out of the question.

Seeing that it was soon going to be morning he took out the Full Moon Wearing Autumn Dew and put the drops into his eyes and started to circulate his Red God's Eye. When the first rays of sunlight hit then he opened his eyes and took in the Qi from it and continued to practice his Red God's Eye.

After a while, he opened his eyes and it was deep red with a golden border around it, this was the third stage of his Red God's Eye Mustard Seed. With this, he was able to see everything in his surrounding in a slower speed, though his Detailed Stage of the Red God's Eye also give him this ability it was incomparable to the dilation it had now.

It also gave him the ability to see Qi in the air and he would no longer need to stimulate his Qi to activate it anymore and was now like a passive skill and he only needs to stimulate it in the mornings when he would absorb the Qi released from the sun at the first ray.

This meant that his ability to react to sudden situations will be improved, apart from that he can now use some of his Spiritual Power outside his mind sea, similar to his Spirit Power when he breakthrough's the sixth stage of the Forbidden Heaven's Skill. (WN: Spiritual Power is his mental Qi and spirit power is the normal Qi which he cultivates with)

This was the major difference from the normal Purple Demon's Eye as now he can use his Spiritual Power to trap people in illusions without the use of any spirit ring abilities. If used with his Samsara Eye's second ring's ability then the illusions are almost indifferentiable than the real thing. He could now see the various energies in the air and even sort out a few elemental energies in this place.

He knew that he had a few hours before Dugu Bo comes to try and poison him, he was also a little worried about Grandmaster and the rest as they would be fighting Dugu Bo later today. He knew that in the canon they were able to fight him due to their Spirit Fusion ability which was a three-man 99% spirit fusion and with him removing the impurities in Grandmasters spirit along with the enhancement of the Eye of Life it became the Golden Saint Dragon which should effectively boost their Spirit Fusion to 100%.

He then started to refine a few pills as he now had a lot of materials to craft those pills which he couldn't do so previously. He had taken all types of herbs in this place and transported them to his Magical Space. There he could make them age much faster than even the Ice Fire Yin Yang Well, he knew that the disadvantage of the Magical Space was that it couldn't let plants develop a spiritual consciousness as of yet but he also had his instincts telling him that this would be solved once he reaches the Sixth Layer of the Forbidden Heavens Technique.

As of now he just kept only the rare herbs into the Space as for the Immortal Herbs he planted them in a separate space while also using the Water from the Ice Fire Yin Yang Well to change the environment at that place by developing another Ice Fire Yin Yan Well inside the Magical Space and with the time dilation it would be much more potent than the one in Sunset Forest, he knew that after he becomes a god it would be better to re-plant one set of herbs in the Sunset Forest for the future generations.

He then saw a huge golden dragon at the base of the mountain, knowing that Grandmaster and the rest have come for him, he took out his Twelve Spider Lances and was rushing towards the base of the mountain. He had boosted his Twelve Spider Lances with the Ice Fire Yin Yang Well and it had become much more flexible and stronger, he was able to easily move towards the entrance of the mountain in just a few minutes, he saw that Grandmaster and the others were lying on the ground and he was shocked to see that even Dugu Bo was not in good shape, this was maybe due to Grandmaster's spirit which made their fusion much stronger they were able to push back even Dugu Bo to such an extent. But it looked like it was only able to deal a little more damage to him that's all where they still lost the fight.

"Dugu Bo, Stop!!"

He didn't bother waiting any longer and just ran towards them with his Spider Lances. On seeing him Grandmaster was truly relieved and Dugu Bo just gave him a pondering look thinking how he was able to last so long at that place without suffering from the poisons.

"Master, Lord Dugu Bo brought me here to discuss poison and was interested in my knowledge in the field and Lord Dugu Bo the previous matter regarding that poison, I think I have a solution to it so could you please let my teacher's go from here??"

"Tang San, what do you mean by that??"

"Grandmaster, I will be staying here for about 12 - 18 months so please tell the others that you sent me to some special training and I will not be able to come back anytime soon but I should be able to make a visit after 6 months so please don't worry about me"

Seeing Tang San's expression grandmaster knew that he had already decided on that matter, he didn't say anything and just asked Dugu Bo for permission to visit once in a while to check up on Tang San. Since he saw no reason to stop them from visiting once in a while he just let them do so and gave them a few pills telling them to use it when entering the mountain otherwise they would surely die from the poison.

After talking a little with Tang San, Grandmaster and the rest of them left from there and Tang San went back with Dugu Bo to the Well.

…

After reaching the Well, Tang San said,

"Well, old freak It looks like I've survived this little test of yours. So now that my time is up you have three chances to poison me and If I win I hope you won't go back on the promise you gave me to fulfill three of my wishes"

"I will surely fulfill three of your wishes but only if you survive three of my poisons. Don't worry though I won't kill you with these poisons I can't guarantee that you won't suffer any side effects if you can't cure yourself"

"Are you only going to talk, or are you going to start with our bet??"

Seeing Tang San's cocky smile he was getting a little pissed so he released his first poison, he only used his poison aura without holding it back but that didn't do anything to Tang San when he saw that he was shocked. He didn't use any of his Spirit Power and only used his poison aura so Tang San's Golden Body Blood was able to easily resist the poison and with his Ultimate Ice and Fire Protection he was able to refine that poison and improve his cultivation a little, but since he didn't get his Fourth Ring he wasn't able to tell how much he had improved exactly but the entire aura of a Titled Doulo should be able to improve his cultivation by at least half a rank and the fact that he was halfway towards the next rank according to the system means that he would surely have reached the 44th level after getting his next ring.

He was really happy about this, but he wasn't completely satisfied and wanted to still increase it, he knew that after eating the Immortal Herbs the rest of the Seven Devils will improve by at least ten ranks and some might even reach the Spirit King level directly, this was mainly due to him helping them develop their bodies to completely absorb the herbs to make it as beneficial as possible.

Seeing that his entire poison aura didn't do anything to him Dugu Bo was a little shocked at this, he didn't expect his Poison Aura to be resisted so easily. He had two chances left, he was a little worried seeing Tang San resist his poison so easily, though it was only his Poison Aura and with not much of his Spirit Power it was really weak compared to his actual poison it was still enough to kill a Spirit Kings not to mention Tang San who was only a Spirit Ancestor at the moment.

He took out a snake from his bracelet, Tang San who knew about the bracelet wasn't so shocked and was thinking of ways to get the bracelet from him as it was a unique bracelet which lets you store even living thing inside it. Though he could make a tool similar to that, it would require him to have a cultivation of at least a Spirit Emperor to do so.

"For the second poison let this snake bite you"
