The two of them were currently located in a position within the Sunset Forest where the aura of life was relatively dense.
Fang Yuan found a high spot to look around in all directions, and immediately found the location of the Yin Yang Ice and Fire Well.
The Yin Yang Ice and Fire Well was located in a mountain col of a peak, and its surroundings were protected by toxic miasma set up by Dugu Bo.
The plant density of the entire mountain was pitifully low.
Compared with the dense forest environment where Fang Yuan was currently located, the environmental gap was obvious at a glance, allowing him to instantly find his bearings.
After identifying the direction, Fang Yuan brought Tang San and headed towards the direction of the Yin Yang Ice and Fire Well.
After absorbing the first Soul Ring, Tang San’s Soul Power Rank reached level thirteen, and his physical fitness also received a considerable boost.
The two’s traveling speed became even faster.
Holding Tang San’s hand, Fang Yuan sped along like the wind, and before long, they arrived at the foot of a bald peak.
Looking up from the foot of the mountain, this mountain was about two hundred zhang high, with sparse vegetation.
There was no plant aura of other parts of the Sunset Forest; instead, there was a faint fishy stench in the air.
“This is poison?”
Tang San’s nose twitched, and he immediately realized that toxic fog was permeated nearby, causing him to be inwardly startled.
He carefully identified it, and from the contents recorded in the Tang Sect Mysterious Heaven Treasure Record, he distinguished the ins and outs of this poison.
It was Green Phosphorus Snake venom, a vicious and fatal snake venom.
Tang San could not help pondering inwardly: “The toxicity of this Green Phosphorus Snake venom is fatal.
Although I have the Soul skills of life enhancement, it is impossible for me to sustain myself for even a moment in the dense snake venom.
Using strong liquor and realgar can indeed counter this snake venom, but the reserves of these two things are not much, and they might not be able to sustain us until we cross this patch of toxic fog.”
Thinking this, Tang San turned his head towards Fang Yuan, pondering how to open his mouth to explain the situation before him to his teacher.
However, Tang San was surprised to find that on the face of his teacher Fang Yuan, there was not the slightest look of surprise or hesitation.
Tang San’s thoughts spun rapidly: “Teacher’s cultivation far exceeds mine.
Although he might not know the specific information of the toxic fog here, he definitely couldn’t have failed to discover it.
In that case, judging by Teacher’s appearance, he should have some other way to cross this patch of toxic fog.”
Fang Yuan looked at the toxic fog in front of him with a calm heart.
He had long known that the Yin Yang Ice and Fire Well was regarded as forbidden territory by that Old Poison Dugu Bo, who had set up a toxic miasma to protect it.
And against this toxic miasma, he naturally had his own counter-measures.
He took Tang San’s hand from the side and said, “It should be right here.
That treasure land is right in the middle of this mountain, let’s go.”
Saying this, he was going to take Tang San directly to walk up the mountain.
Tang San was startled inwardly.
Right now, the two of them hadn’t taken any protective measures yet.
If they rashly penetrated deep into the toxic fog, I’m afraid both of them would be in mortal danger in a short while.
He hurriedly spoke out to remind Fang Yuan: “Teacher, my Martial Soul feels that the environment here has some issues; the air on the mountain might be poisonous.”
Fang Yuan glanced at Tang San, thinking to himself that he truly lived up to being a demon from beyond the heavens undergoing Reincarnation and Rebirth, speaking with airtight perfection.
Seeing that it was poisonous through the Mysterious Heaven Treasure Record was enough, yet he still blamed it on his Martial Soul’s feeling.
However, Fang Yuan could also understand Tang San’s approach.
After all, matters like precocity in early childhood were indeed eye-catching, and naturally, it was best to avoid being detected as abnormal by others.
He said to Tang San: “Rest assured, I naturally have a way to deal with the poison here.”
Hearing these words, Tang San finally set his heart at ease.
He knew that his teacher was not a reckless novice, and definitely had a counter-measure before daring to charge into the toxic fog.
However, the two of them had not walked more than a few steps towards the top of the mountain when Tang San’s complexion turned cyan and purple.
Inside his body, the Mysterious Heaven Skill operated at full speed, attempting to neutralize the Green Phosphorus Snake venom that had been inhaled into his body, but this was merely a drop in the bucket.
“H-How could this be…”
Because the toxic gas had entered his body, Tang San’s head also became somewhat unclear, and his thinking speed seemed to be covered by a layer of maze-like obstruction.
Could it be that Teacher’s method of resolving the snake venom had gone wrong?
Just as this thought rose in Tang San’s mind, he saw Fang Yuan beside him make a move.
Beneath Fang Yuan’s feet, the first Soul Ring emerged, rhythmically undulating up and down around his body, emitting a bright yellow light.
Clearly, this was triggered by Fang Yuan utilizing his Soul skills.
Tang San’s expression froze in an instant.
After feeling the Green Phosphorus Snake venom enter his body, before he had time to say anything to Fang Yuan, he suddenly discovered that the snake venom in his body had vanished in an instant.
But immediately following that, along with Tang San’s breathing, another puff of Green Phosphorus Snake venom was inhaled from his nasal cavity into his body.
Before Tang San could make any moves, he was surprised to find that the snake venom in his body was once again traceless and gone.
Could this be Teacher’s method of dealing with the snake venom?
It is truly terrifying to this extent!
Tang San was shocked inwardly.
If it were up to him alone, he could also think of methods to counter the Green Phosphorus Snake venom.
But these methods were nothing more than blending antidotes or fighting poison with poison, and things of that sort.
But the method Teacher used to resolve the snake venom was truly divine and miraculous.
Eliminating all the toxins in the entire body in an instant—Tang San couldn’t even grasp the underlying principles of it at all.
“I wonder if Teacher’s method is only targeted at the Green Phosphorus Snake venom, or if it can be used to counter other toxins.
If it’s the latter, then this method is simply the nemesis of all poison users in the World.”
Tang San subconsciously gave birth to a sense of crisis.
After all, speaking of using poison, he, a Tang Sect Disciple, was naturally one of those who used poison the most.
However, this thought had just risen before it was immediately dispelled by Tang San.
“Joking aside, this was his own teacher!”
If someone else possessed this detoxification method and directly restrained Tang San, then that person would have already courted death.
But for his own teacher to have such a method, wasn’t that only right and proper?
A teacher for a day is a father for life; a father restraining his son couldn’t be more reasonable!
Thinking this, those few negative emotions in Tang San’s heart instantly vanished like smoke in thin air, transforming instead into feelings of adoration for his teacher.
Fang Yuan turned his head to look at Tang San’s state, and seeing him looking at himself with an expression of extreme adoration, not looking like he was affected by the toxins, he nodded slightly.
He had long known that this place was set with toxic miasma by that Old Poison Dugu Bo.
If he didn’t have the corresponding methods, how could he possibly have brought Tang San here?
First Soul skills, Reverting to Former Appearance!
Fang Yuan’s first Soul skills was derived from the Rank 6 Time Dao Gu worm given by his Senior Brother in his past life, and its effects were extremely powerful.
The essence of its ability was to trace a person’s time back to the state of a few breaths prior.
Not just poisoning, even if this person was beheaded, cut in half at the waist, or beaten into minced meat, Reverting to Former Appearance could restore him in an instant.
This kind of healing effect could be called terrifying, whether in Fang Yuan’s original World or within this Douluo Continent!
After Rebirth into this Douluo Continent, upon finishing the absorption of the first Soul Ring and learning that he could choose the Gu worms of his past life as Martial Soul abilities, Fang Yuan decided that his first Soul skills would be Reverting to Former Appearance.
This healing ability of bringing the dead back to life and regenerating flesh on bones could bring immense assistance in battles and interpersonal interactions.
Relying on the Reverting to Former Appearance Soul skills, Fang Yuan guest-starred as a healing Spirit Master in the early stages; his powerful healing effects allowed him to easily find teammates to help him acquire Soul Rings.
It wasn’t until Fang Yuan acquired the subsequent three Soul Rings and possessed stronger combat power that he resumed the action mode of a lone wolf.
