Chapter 493: Chapter 485: There’s Always Someone Stronger_1

Both the Ice Lotus and the Fire Lotus are extremely rare and special herbs found between heaven and earth.

Master Mo Yang’s Plants Illustrated Handbook records it very clearly, the Fire Lotus only grows in environments where geothermal heat is incredibly intense. Basically, it’s only possible for a Fire Lotus to appear at the mouth of a volcano or in the underground where high-temperature magma still exists.

The Ice Lotus is even rarer.

Many people think that the Ice Lotus must grow on the perpetually snow-covered peaks of high mountains or in other ice- and snow-bound lands. In fact, Master Mo Yang recorded two Ice Lotuses, one of which was found in an underground dark river and the other at the bottom of a well known as Lock Dragon Well.

If one seeks the Ice Lotus in the snow atop mountains or in the lands of extreme cold, it will be like trying to draw blood from a stone.

Qin Niu had managed to collect both the Ice Lotus and the Fire Lotus, which was in itself a great opportunity and a huge stroke of fortune.

Unfortunately, he didn’t know how to use these two special herbs.

After obtaining the Ice Lotus, aside from letting the War Bees harvest its pollen for honey-making, he did not explore the other abilities of the Ice Lotus. The Fire Lotus was even more negligently handled; he simply threw it in an underground cave in the mountains, leaving it under the care of the Fire Phoenix.

Now, having unexpectedly discovered that the Medicine King Sutra could incorporate the Ice Lotus, he firmly grasped this chance and was intensely exploring the changes brought about by refining the Ice Lotus.

The fire poison in his left arm could no longer pose any threat to him.

He was now confident that even if more fire poison invaded his body, he would be able to suppress and then completely purify it, using the chill of the Ice Lotus.

However, this fire poison was indeed extremely domineering and difficult to cleanse.

The Ice Lotus spun continuously in the alchemy stove, which he had assumed would completely refine and dissipate it. But that didn’t happen; the alchemy stove was just constantly drawing energy from the Ice Lotus.

It felt as if the entire Ice Lotus had merged with the alchemy stove.

At this moment, the Ice Lotus existed in a very special state.

Should he also refine the Fire Lotus, he believed there would be even greater gains.

Not to drag his feet, he went directly from the backyard to the mountain, speeding towards the location of the cave.

In order to save time, not long after entering the mountain behind his house, he summoned the Fire Phoenix.

“Carry me to the cave!”

Qin Niu said to the Fire Phoenix and directly leaped onto its back.

“Hold on tight!”

Although the Fire Phoenix had formed an equal contract with Qin Niu, it was still his pet. Plus, it was only with Qin Niu’s wholehearted assistance that it had been able to undergo Nirvana and become a phoenix; out of gratitude to Qin Niu, it was quite loyal to him.

It spread its wings and soared into the sky, then carried Qin Niu at an extremely fast speed over the mountains and forests, arriving at the cave in the blink of an eye.

One could still see the traces where the lava had spewed forth.

They had solidified and turned into new rocks.

All the vegetation in the area had been burnt to death.

“Master, why is there a cold and icy aura in your body? There seems to be a very strange fiery aura as well.”

The Fire Phoenix cocked its head and examined Qin Niu with curiosity.

“Feel the fire poison in my left arm.”

Qin Niu stopped using the Ice Lotus’s chill to suppress the fire poison, and it immediately began to grow stronger within his body.

This fire poison was extremely sinister.

“This is the Samadhi True Fire! Has master been injured by a powerful human?”

The Fire Phoenix asked in surprise.
