Chapter 29: Searching for the Sunset Forest

Chapter 29: Searching for the Sunset Forest
Hearing this, Yang Wudi was a little surprised: "Po Di, why did you think of looking for medicinal herbs in the Sunset Forest? Yes, there are indeed more medicinal herbs in the Sunset Forest, and there are even some rare medicinal herbs. However, the Sunset Forest is too dangerous. The medicinal herbs found are not proportional to the degree of danger. Besides, it is a waste of my talent as a peak Soul Saint to come here to collect herbs."

"Grandpa, let's just look for it. Just treat it as our training in the Sunset Forest. I want to see more soul beasts and prepare for my next soul ring acquisition."

Hearing this, Yang Wudi couldn't help laughing: "Po Di, you have just obtained the first soul ring, the second soul ring will not be so fast."

In the end, Yang Wudi agreed to his grandson's request, and the two of them stayed in the Sunset Forest for a few days.

In the past few days, I have encountered many soul beasts, of all kinds, including plant soul beasts, animal soul beasts, and even a few ten thousand year soul beasts. One of them was a ten thousand year old Nether Leopard. It was extremely fast, coming and going without a trace, and was the fastest of all speed-type soul beasts. Fortunately, it was scared away by Yang Wudi. If an ordinary Soul Emperor encountered it, he would probably be in danger.

The two even found a lot of precious medicinal herbs, the best of which was a thousand-year-old wild yam, worth tens of thousands of gold soul coins.

But no matter how hard they searched, they couldn't seem to find the location of the Yin-Yang Eyes of Ice and Fire in the original novel, and Yang Wudi refused to take him to the inner circle. After all, his grandson was only a six-year-old child, and the core area was too dangerous.

Finally, with Yang Podi feeling regretful, the two left the Sunset Forest.

On the carriage, Yang Podi couldn't help but ask his grandfather: "Grandpa, does our Tiandou Empire have any powerful poison soul masters?"

Yang Wudi was curious: "Po Di, why are you suddenly asking about the Poison Soul Master?"

"Grandpa, don't we, the Po Yi clan, make medicine and poison? Do you have any poisons that are more powerful than ours?"

"When it comes to using poison to defeat the enemy, the most famous person on Douluo Continent should be Dugu Bo. His martial spirit is the Jade Phosphorus Snake King, and he also lives in Tiandou City."

Hearing the news about Dugu Bo, Yang Podi instantly became interested: "Grandpa, is this Dugu Bo very powerful? How does his poison compare to the poison of our Pozhi clan?"

"The poison of our Po Yi clan and Dugu Bo's poison should have their own merits. Dugu Bo's poison all comes from his martial soul. I met him once a year ago. He should have been a high-level soul douluo at that time, but his poison could not do anything to your grandfather. Moreover, although this person is good in group battles, his ability in single combat is relatively weak. In terms of strength, he should not be my opponent."

"Grandpa, there seem to be relatively few poison soul masters on Douluo Continent. What's the reason? Logically speaking, the lethality of poison should be very large."

"Po Enemy, I will teach you another principle. Using poison is good and has great lethality. But it has a big disadvantage. If a soul master uses poison for a long time, he will also be poisoned. Especially after being in contact with it for a long time, the toxin will be integrated into his blood, which will eventually slow down his soul power improvement. This is also one of the reasons why my Po Yi clan can no longer improve its soul power."

"However, refining medicine is one of the foundations of our Po Yi clan. As the clan leader, I must be more proficient in refining medicine. This is also the biggest regret of our Po Yi clan."

"Grandpa, is there any way to make medicine without poisoning myself?"

Hearing this, Yang Wudi fell into deep thought, and spoke after a long time: "Of course there is a way, as long as we find the legendary fairy grass, the fragrant and beautiful fairy product."

"Grandpa, what is the Youxiang Qiluo Immortal Product?"

"The Youxiang Qiluo Immortal Product is the nemesis of all poisons. It has the effect of neutralizing all toxins. It cannot detoxify itself, but it can overcome poisons. However, our Pozhi clan has spent countless generations and still hasn't found it."

"Grandpa, what does the Youxiang Qiluo fairy product look like? And what exactly is a fairy product?" "Fairy products are some extreme medicinal herbs. After tens of thousands or even more than a hundred thousand years of growth, these herbs have been able to absorb the spiritual energy of heaven and earth. Ordinary soul masters can greatly increase their soul power by absorbing them, and some can even make their martial souls evolve. Each plant is priceless."

"The Youxiang Qiluo Immortal Product is a large light pink flower with no leaves. The stem is three feet long. The flower is very large, with a diameter of a foot. Each petal looks as crystal clear as crystal. The stamens are light purple, like purple diamonds inlaid there. As long as you stand around the Youxiang Qiluo Immortal Product, you will be immune to all poisons."

“Po Di, now that you have become a spirit master, it is time for you to accept the true inheritance of our Po Yi clan. After we go back this time, I will teach you the knowledge of alchemy inherited by our Po Yi clan. That is the true heritage of our Po Yi clan.”

Hearing this, Yang Podi felt very excited, but also a little hesitant. Finally, he spoke: "Grandpa, can I just learn the knowledge of refining medicine without refining it myself?"

Yang Wudi glanced at his grandson and said, "Po Di, why do you have such an idea? You should know that after you learn how to refine medicine, you will become stronger."

"Grandpa, I do want to become stronger, but I want to be a more powerful soul master."

Hearing this, Yang Wudi fell silent. It seemed that all members of the Po Yi Clan were faced with this kind of trade-off, but after being exposed to the art of alchemy, all of them became addicted. Otherwise, the Po Yi Clan would not have gone through countless generations without a Titled Douluo. Although the Soul-Breaking Spear is also known as a top-level weapon spirit, in terms of reputation, the gap is still quite obvious compared to the Seven Killing Sword and the Clear Sky Hammer.

This is also one of the greatest sorrows of the Pozhi clan.

"To defeat the enemy, you should first learn the knowledge of refining medicine. We will talk about whether you want to learn it when the time comes."

Yang Wudi once aspired to become a top soul master, but due to his obsession with refining medicine, he neglected the cultivation of his soul power. Otherwise, he would not have been a top soul sage until now. His soul power level is at the bottom among the patriarchs of the four single-attribute families, even lower than Bai He of the Min clan. Now the other three are already soul douluos.

Thinking of this, Yang Wudi couldn't help but sigh. The success of the Pozhi clan was due to alchemy, and their failure might also be due to alchemy.

After more than an hour, the carriage finally returned to Qingyuan Mountain, the home of the Poyi Clan.

As soon as he returned home, his mother Niu Jinfeng took him to look around, fearing that there was something wrong with her son's health, which left Yang Podi speechless.

"Mom, there's really nothing wrong with my body."

"Son, you've been out for so long this time, how can I not be worried? And you absorbed a 600-year spirit ring, which is very dangerous."

After Niu Jinfeng carefully examined her son's body, she was relieved only after confirming that there was no problem.

"Son, don't do such dangerous things in the future. Although our Poyi clan is not a big family, we are still quite powerful. There is no need for you to risk your life like this."

"Mom, don't worry, I will always do things that I am sure of in the future."

After communicating with his mother, Yang Podi returned to his room, while his mother continued to take care of his younger sister Yang Tianyue.
