Chapter 34 Physical Changes
Half an hour ago.

Yan's consciousness gradually awakened from the deep darkness. He slowly opened his eyes and was surprised to find that he was suspended in the Yin-Yang Eyes of Ice and Fire.

He felt that the soul power in his body had been fully restored and its state had reached an unprecedented peak.

He didn't know how long he had been soaking in the polar spring water.

From day to night, and from night to day, at least a day and a night passed.

Fortunately for him, Dugu Bo didn't seem to be nearby.

After soaking in the polar spring water for such a long time, a lot of the medicinal properties of the Star Anise Ice Grass and the Fiery Apricot were absorbed.

Eating the two magical herbs did not improve his soul power, but it did help him develop a body that was immune to all poisons.

Originally, his fiery body could resist most toxins.

Now, even Dugu Bo's dreaded Green Phosphorus Snake King Poison could not pose a threat to him.

Yue Guan must be very anxious because I didn’t get back in time.

It's still very dangerous here, we have to leave as soon as possible.

Without time to think, Yan spread his wings and soared into the sky like a phoenix reborn from the ashes.

He quickly crossed the border of the Yin-Yang Eyes of Ice and Fire and moved away from this mysterious and dangerous area.

When he was soaring high in the sky, he seemed to have a different feeling.

He felt his body became much lighter, and the pair of wings on his back became stronger.

Yue Guan failed to find Yan and returned to the hotel in Toks City.

He paced back and forth in the room, anxious like an ant on hot pan.

"Why hasn't Yan come back yet? Did he really encounter any misfortune?"

Thinking of Dugu Bo’s words, Yue Guan became worried.

"If something really happened to Yan, how would I explain it to the Pope? Sigh."

When Yue Guan was extremely anxious, he suddenly felt a familiar breath.

Immediately afterwards, a red light rushed in through the window and fell into his room.

The person who came was Yan.

"Yan, you are finally back!"

Yue Guan was pleasantly surprised to see Yan again, and excitedly grabbed his shoulders.

Yan blamed himself a little:

"Elder Ju, I'm sorry for making you worry."

As he spoke, he found that Yue Guan was staring at him intently, with an indescribable complex emotion flashing in his eyes.

This made him feel a little embarrassed.

"Elder Ju, what's wrong with you?"

"Boy, I should be the one asking you this question. Why have you changed?"

"what?"

Yan didn't understand what Yue Guan meant.

Yue Guan quickly pushed Yan in front of the huge floor-to-ceiling mirror in the room.

"Well, take a look for yourself."

The moment he looked at the mirror, Yan noticed that he had actually changed. No wonder he felt his body had become lighter and faster when he was soaring in the air.

His whole body has become thinner and he is no longer as muscular as before, but now his proportions are just right and he looks taller.

The originally fiery red hair and eyes turned dark red.

The flame patterns exposed on the surface of the body had also disappeared, and only the patterns on the neck could still be vaguely seen.

His facial features have also become more three-dimensional, and coupled with his determined eyes, he looks more handsome than before.

Looking at Yan carefully, Yue Guan felt unbelievable. "Yan, what happened during the day and night you disappeared? Did you eat something special?"

Yan nodded, but didn't rush to answer Yue Guan's question.

He realized that the changes were caused by the two highly poisonous herbs.

When he came out of the Yin-Yang Eyes of Ice and Fire, he felt something strange in his body.

But time was running out and he had no time to explore.

At this moment, he was closing his eyes and concentrating on feeling the flow of cold and hot energy in his body.

Yue Guan stood quietly by the side without disturbing him.

Suddenly, Yan opened his eyes, and his eyeballs turned into a fiery red color. The red color was even brighter than before, and seemed to contain even more powerful energy.

The long dark red hair turned into fiery red again, emitting an even more intense light.

The flame patterns on the surface of the body burst out again, more domineering than before.

Seeing this scene, Yue Guan was shocked again and couldn't help asking:
"Yan, what is going on?"

Yan moved his mind, and the flame patterns on his body disappeared instantly, and his hair and eyeballs turned back to a more low-key dark red.

"Elder Ju, the power of the flames in my body can now be controlled and released at will."

"Yeah, I saw it too. This is really great! If I'm not mistaken, you took a top-grade cold-natured fairy grass?"

Yan nodded, and then explained seriously:
"Elder Ju, when I was flying away from the Sunset Forest yesterday, I suddenly saw a patch of poisonous camphor trees under my feet. I guess it might have been planted by Dugu Bo.

Dugu Bo actually said that Sunset Forest is his territory. Perhaps he has some unspeakable secret here.

So, while you two were fighting, I decided to take the risk and find out what was going on.

Not long after I flew into the poisonous barrier, I smelled a smell of sulfur, and there seemed to be a hot spring at the bottom of the valley that was so deep that it could not be seen.

So I followed the breath and rushed down to the bottom of the valley, where I unexpectedly found a unique spring. "

Yue Guan listened to Yan's description attentively. When he heard this, he became extremely excited and couldn't help but sigh:
"At the bottom of the cliff, there must be an extremely unique spring!"

"Yes."

Yan nodded slightly, and then described the unique scenery of the Yin-Yang Eyes of Ice and Fire in detail to Yue Guan.

Yue Guan was shocked after hearing this.

"Is there such a mysterious place in the world?"

"Yeah, I didn't expect that I would accidentally break into Dugu Bo's secret garden. It's a fairy grass garden."

"What? A fairy grass garden?"

"Yes. There are thousands of strange plants growing around the Yin-Yang Eye of Ice and Fire. They are all rare and precious medicinal herbs."

After hearing this, Yue Guan became even more excited. He gritted his teeth, feeling very unwilling.

"Such a mysterious place blessed by nature actually fell into the hands of that shameless old poisoner!"

Yue Guan seemed to have thought of something, his expression suddenly changed, and he smiled:
"Yan, is that where you ate the immortal grass?"

"Ah."

"Since you accidentally discovered the Yin-Yang Eyes of Ice and Fire, it means you have a connection with it, and it no longer belongs to Dugu Bo! When we go back and report to the Pope, we can bring that mysterious land under the jurisdiction of the Spirit Hall, and those immortal herbs will belong to us."

"This must never be done!"

Yan rejected Yue Guan's proposal without hesitation.

Seeing that Yan was a little excited, Yue Guan was very confused.

"Yan, what's wrong with you?"

Yan said seriously:

"Elder Ju, I told you the truth because I trust you completely, but the Pope must not know about that place."
