Chapter 263.2: Ancestor Tang San
Huo Yuhaoâs expression was very calm as he nodded. He said, âTo me, the only priceless thing is my lover. I donât want to have a conflict with all of you because of these external possessions. Take it.â As he spoke, he placed the pill directly into the flower of the Delicate Silk Immortal. He let go of the pill and allowed it to roll down.
Wang Qiuâer was in a daze as she looked at Huo Yuhao, but she didnât say anything. She didnât try to stop him at this point. She only felt that something was stuck in her heart, and she also felt a great sense of loss.
The Delicate Silk Immortal sighed, and her petals started to open. The purplish pill drifted back above her stamen.
âAh Jiao, what do you think?â she actually asked the Blazing Delicate Apricot.
The Blazing Delicate Apricot also sighed and said, âThat person once said that it was easy to find valuable treasures, but difficult to have a lover. Let him pass. Heâs probably one of the special humans.â
The Delicate Silk Immortal said, âAlright, I shall let you pass. Youâve passed all the tests that person left behind. Return Ah Jiaoâs stuff and you can start reading that book. If you need help, I can help you.â
âThanks!â Huo Yuhao was delighted.
This was the ending he wanted! To him, nothing was more important than Wang Dongâer. He didnât wish to offend these plant-type soul beasts because of his greed, which would affect his search for the Yearning Heartbroken Grass. He wasnât willing to risk anything.
He returned to the Blazing Delicate Apricot excitedly, and passed the Blazing Rubber back to her.
âDonât, donât give it directly to me. Just place it on the ground. I want to re-absorb it once the Ultimate Ice melts.â The Blazing Delicate Apricot was evidently terrified of the Ultimate Ice left behind by the Snow Empress.
When she saw Huo Yuhao placing the rubber on the ground without any hesitation, her scarlet-red body swayed a little, and she spoke again, âItâs easy to find valuable treasures, but difficult to have a lover. You are a good person.â
Huo Yuhao grinned and replied, âThanks. Itâll really be good if I can leave with the Yearning Heartbroken Grass.â
After he finished speaking, he returned to the Delicate Silk Immortalâs domain. He sat down cross-legged and started reading the book.
This book was completely snow-white, and the material used to make it was unknown. The book was soft and felt a little like silk, but it seemed tougher than silk. It was also slightly damp to the touch.
There werenât any words or title on the cover page. Huo Yuhao sat cross-legged and flipped open the first page of this book.
There werenât many words on the first page, but those that were there felt very ancient.
âIâm glad that someone can see my last words. If you can pass the Delicate Silk Immortalâs test, it proves that you are qualified to read this book. This book was left behind by Tang Sectâs ancestor, Tang San. It records the difference between the various types of immortal and poisonous plants. There are also some lost Tang Sect methods of using poison. After you learn them, please leave this book behind. You must also use these abilities prudently.â
Huo Yuhao was shocked as he read this! He didnât expect that this book recorded the Tang Sectâs ways of using poison!
He was originally doubtful of the Blazing Delicate Apricot and Delicate Silk Immortalâs words. They werenât referring to Wang Dongâerâs father. It seemed like his doubts were right. The person who really left this book behind was Tang San, the founding ancestor of the Tang Sect! He was also the one who had discovered this place!
Wang Dongâerâs father must have had passed the test too, and found the Yearning Heartbroken Grass. It was just that he couldnât leave with it, and thus he left behind these words in the book.
As he thought of this, a few of his doubts were resolved. This was undoubtedly the most appropriate explanation.
He quickly flipped to the second page.
âHe who has an affinity, hello! I am the founder of the Tang Sect, Tang San.
âThe Icefire Yin Yang Well is a gift from heaven. The Extreme Chill Icespring and Blazing Sunspring exist together here; Yin and Yang complement each other. It is one of the blessed lands. The Douluo Continent as a whole is also a blessed land. After I discovered this place, I didnât dare to take it for my own. I found some valuable herbs here along with my partners and re-grafted some of these rare yet valuable plants. Whoever you are, you must rid yourself of greed since you passed my test. You canât ask for more. You can only take seven types of herbs from this place.
âThe methods of using poison can save and harm people. Those with ill intentions can destroy lives. Thatâs why I intentionally left the medicine and poison chapters of the Mysterious Heaven Treasure Record here. Only those who have passed the test will be able to learn it. Whoever learns this Treasure Record will be considered a part of the Tang Sect, and I hope youâll look after the sect. If you are unwilling to join the sect, please return the book. You can still obtain the herbs under the Delicate Silk Immortalâs guidance. If you are willing to join the sect, you canât leak the chapters either. You can only use them yourself. Exercise caution!
âMysterious Heaven Treasure Record, Hidden Weapon Hundred Separation, Medicine Chapter.
âDelicate Silk Immortal â the jinx of a hundred poisons. It has the effect of neutralizing all poison. It canât dispel poison on its own, but it can curb poisonous substances. Its scent is clear and refreshing. All poison around the Delicate Silk Immortal becomes useless. Its scent can neutralize all poison. Its flower is pink, and its petals areâ¦
âSnowworms are another way to refer to top-quality cordyceps. Snowworms are greyish-white in color, and there are ring patterns on them, eight in total, and the central four rings are the most evident. It is thin and long, while its color ranges from light to deep brown. Its cross-section is slightly longer than most cordyceps, and thereâs a slightly larger spore at the top. This spore is bright-yellow on the outside and white on the inside. It is plump and juicy. Not only is it larger than an ordinary cordyceps, its uses are much better too. Just in the Icefire Yin Yang Wellâ¦

âStar Anise Mysterious Ice Grass. It possesses huge white flowers in the shape of star anises. The stamen in the center of its flowers shine like ice crystals. It doesnât possess any scent. Itâs located at the center of the Extreme Chill Icespringâ¦
Oh my! Huo Yuhao started to become agitated after just a slight loot at the book. He hadnât expected to obtain the medicine and poison chapter left behind by Tang San. It wasnât a problem for him to enter the Tang Sect, since he was already a part of it!
At this point, the Delicate Silk Immortalâs voice sounded, âHey, have you finished reading the first few pages? Are you willing to join the Tang Sect? If you arenât, you canât continue reading. I promised that personâ¦!â
Huo Yuhao lifted his head to look at the Delicate Silk Immortal and smiled. He answered, âIâm a disciple of Tang Sect. Of course Iâm willing.â
âOh? Youâre a disciple of Tang Sect? Let me take a look at your Mysterious Jade Hands, then.â
Huo Yuhao nodded and lifted his hands. He slowly circulated his Mysterious Heaven Technique, and his hands slowly turned the color of jade. As his body condition wasnât at its peak right now, he couldnât fully use his Mysterious Jade Hands. However, it wasnât possible for him to fake the Mysterious Heaven Technique.
âAlright, thatâs fine. You can continue. After you finish reading, return the book to me. Thatâs why youâd better memorize it.â
âAlright.â Huo Yuhao nodded, then started to read the book seriously.
He didnât read it in order. He quickly found the record related to the Yearning Heartbroken Grass.
âYearning Heartbroken Grass, also known as the Yearning Heartbroken Red Flower. It looks like a flower, but itâs actually grass. It has a white flower the size of a palm. There are no leaves, and its stem is connected to a black stone.
âThe Yearning Heartbroken Grass is one of the most valuable herbs. Thereâs a legend about it too. A long time ago, there was a young man who lived a very simple life. He loved plants and flowers, and he had a whole garden of them. He would spend most of his time with his flowers. Every time his flowers wilted, he would become extremely sorrowful. He would then gather their petals and bury them. He even spent time mourning their loss. His love for flowers touched the Flower God in the heavens, who descended to the mortal world and came to live with him. They had a great time together. However, this didnât last. The other gods and deities were enraged when they found out about this. They believed that gods and mortals shouldnât be together, and recalled the Flower God back to the spiritual realm. When the youth lost his lover, he became very depressed and started to neglect his flowers. As a result, his garden became a pitiful sight. One day, a white-haired elder came and told him that his favorite white peony in the garden was the reincarnation of his beloved wife. As long as he destroyed the flower, the Flower God would lose her divine body and could return to the mortal world once again. They would be reunited then. However, he couldnât forsake his garden. After the elder finished speaking, he turned into a gust of wind and disappeared. The youth was jolted awake and regretted neglecting his flowers. He started to take good care of them again. Although he loved his wife, he couldnât bear to destroy the white peony. He took even greater care of the flower and shared everything with it. Eventually, he died heartbroken. Before he passed away, he dripped his blood on the flower petals, and the peony instantly turned into grass. The white petals were stained with the youthâs blood. Thatâs why itâs also called the Yearning Heartbroken Red Flower.
âThe flower isnât ordinary. When you pluck it, you must think of your lover. After that, you must spit out your blood on the petals. If you have other intentions, youâll die before you even pluck the flower. After plucking it, the flower will never wilt as long as itâs with its owner. If the flower is forcefully destroyed, the Yearning Heartbroken Red Flower will also lose its medicinal effect. Consuming this grass has the effect of preserving oneâs body. One can even extend his lifespan by ten years and greatly increase their soul power.
âPreviously, my wife loved me deeply, and I plucked this flower. She was once a hundred-thousand year Softbone Rabbit who was reborn into a human. To save me in a crisis that followed, she sacrificed her soul ring. Iâm grateful to this grass for saving her. Before I left, I returned to the Icefire Yin Yang Well to plant this flower again. It awaits someone who has the affinity to pluck it once more.
âThe Yearning Heartbroken Grass will only work for lovers. Destiny canât be forced. You must remember that. You must remember that.â
