Dugu Feng slowly approached Dugu Bo and said seriously, "Your Eminence, your perspective is too shallow.
Let me ask you, do you know how many spirit rings Bibi Dong has absorbed for her second martial soul?
Do you know how many Titled Douluos the Clear Sky Sect currently has?
Do you know the true strength of Hall of Worship's chief worshiper, Qiandao Liu?
I know all these things. I am the one who will lead the Dugu Family to become a top-tier soul master force.
Your Eminence, you're outdated. You just need to keep your focus on the Star Luo Emperor. There's no need for you to worry about other matters.
You can't handle them!"
Dugu Feng erupted with a powerful aura, his tone sounding like he was lecturing a subordinate.
This completely stripped Dugu Bo of his dignity.
He had shown too much tolerance toward Dugu Feng.
Every time Dugu Feng met him, he maintained that calm demeanor, as if nothing mattered to him.
Throughout their conversation just now, he had consistently addressed him as "Your Eminence."
Although it was Dugu Bo himself who had forcibly corrected the address earlier when Dugu Feng called him "Second Grandfather," insisting he be called "Your Eminence" instead.
But Dugu Feng maintaining this distance with his cold, formal address of "Your Eminence" made Dugu Bo deeply uncomfortable.
I am your second grandfather!
I am also a Titled Douluo!
Shouldn't you be flattering me?
Even if you're a genius, you're facing a Titled Expert.
But Dugu Feng showed no respect, even mocking him.
What did he just say? That I'm shallow? That I can't handle things?
"Dugu Feng, do you really think I don't dare to take action against you?"
Dugu Bo coldly shouted, his eyes glowing with green light as he slightly raised his right hand. An irresistible purple soul power suddenly restrained Dugu Feng.
He couldn't take it anymore—he had to teach Dugu Feng a lesson.
Make him understand that he is his elder.
Not far away, Dugu Feng's body flickered, his right leg shining brightly as he instantly floated several meters backward.
The flight skill of the Blue Silver Emperor Right Leg Bone allowed Dugu Feng to deftly evade Dugu Bo's attack.
He chuckled, "Your Eminence, with your current strength, you really can't subdue me!"
Dugu Bo's face darkened in disbelief. "A Soul Bone? Even if you have a Soul Bone, do you think I can't handle you? Today, I'll teach you a lesson on behalf of Dugu Shuo!"
As he spoke, Dugu Bo actually revealed nine spirit rings.
To deal with just a Soul Emperor, he actually had to reveal his spirit rings.
This fully demonstrated that in Dugu Bo's mind, Dugu Feng's strength was not to be underestimated.
"Jade Phosphorous Soul Confusion Array!"
Dugu Bo's fourth spirit ring lit up as he first activated his control skill.
Although this Jade Phosphorous Soul Confusion Array was only a fourth soul skill, when executed with his Titled Douluo strength, it rivaled a domain skill.
He believed that once this skill was unleashed, no matter how strong Dugu Feng was, he would be controlled.
The purple mist spread, instantly enveloping Dugu Feng.
The soul skill was too fast—Dugu Feng seemed to have no time to react.
"Haha, I told you you're shallow and you still don't believe me, Second Grandfather. Today, I'll let you witness how powerful the inheritance of the Dugu Family's Poison Cultivation Lineage truly is.
Let you realize how wrong your choice back then was.
Martial Soul Avatar, Overlord Venom!"
Dugu Feng shouted loudly, the rainbow-colored rhomboid scales between his eyebrows beginning to glow.
Six spirit rings materialized around his body.
Yellow! Purple! Purple! Black! Black! Red!
From top to bottom, six spirit rings in four distinct colors.
Simultaneously, a circle of dark red light enveloped Dugu Feng's body—this was the Asura Power of his Asura Domain.
Instantly, it forced the mist of Dugu Bo's Jade Phosphorous Soul Confusion Array to retreat, unable to advance an inch.
Supported by Dugu Feng's formidable soul power, this domain directly withstood Dugu Bo's Fourth Soul Skill.
Dugu Feng looked at Dugu Bo with a smiling expression.
Shocked, aren't you, old fool?
Calling you "Your Eminence" is already showing you enough respect—still not satisfied?
Dugu Bo was indeed stunned.
What was he seeing?
The second spirit ring being purple was something Dugu Feng had long revealed.
But the fourth spirit ring being black had never been exposed before.
Not to mention the sixth spirit ring—a red spirit ring, also known as the 100,000 Year Soul Ring.
That was something no one dared to imagine.
Among those known to possess red spirit rings were only Tang Hao and Bibi Dong, and even theirs were only red at the ninth spirit ring.
But the spirit ring configuration before him left Dugu Bo utterly astounded.
Was this something a human could achieve?
"How did you do it..."
Dugu Bo's words stumbled.
Dugu Feng maintained his leisurely demeanor: "This is the might of the Poison Cultivation Lineage—either succeed or die.
And success means surpassing all Soul Masters, becoming the strongest, rather than evading poison and clinging to a wretched existence!"
Dugu Bo felt as if struck by lightning.
He suddenly looked at the scale on Dugu Feng's forehead—he had one too.
It was the purple scale of the Jade Scale Serpent.
But Dugu Feng's scale was rainbow-colored.
He could sense a powerful threat from it.
The poison and Core Pearl within his own body were trembling, like a mouse encountering a cat.
Ultimate Poison!
Although Dugu Bo had no inheritance and had never heard this term,
he still understood what it was!
It was the ultimate toxin cultivated by the Poison Cultivation Lineage, the king among poisons.
"I don't believe it! I don't believe why you haven't been killed by such extreme poison!"
Dugu Bo muttered deliriously.
Then, two pale white beams shot from his eyes, heading straight for Dugu Feng.
He had subconsciously used his head Spirit Bone Ability, Medusa's Gaze, beyond his soul skills.
Because he had to admit that the poison within him was trembling, as if it had encountered the Poison King and wanted to bow in submission.
This compelled him to abandon using his original soul skill.
The ghastly white beams were extremely fast, but Dugu Feng had never let his guard down and immediately launched a counterattack.
"Asura Slaughter Formation!"
With a single thought, the surrounding dark red Asura Power began spinning rapidly.
The dark red light instantly transformed into rotating blades of killing intent.
These blades were filled with the power to slaughter and destroy everything.
They swirled around Dugu Feng, forming a cylindrical barrier.
Directly blocking the two pale white beams outside.
White and dark red lights alternated, with piercing friction sounds echoing throughout the Ice and Fire Yin-Yang Well.
In mere moments, the pale white light was completely depleted, but Dugu Feng's Asura Slaughter Formation remained intact.
Clearly, Dugu Bo's Ten Thousand Year head Spirit Bone Ability was no match for Dugu Feng.
The Asura Slaughter Formation was a Self-Created Soul Skill Dugu Feng had comprehended long ago.
Now, unleashed with Asura Power, its might instantly surpassed all expectations.
Because Asura Power was an energy that transcended soul power.
Even when facing Dugu Bo's Soul Skill, he was more than a match.
"You're not qualified to teach me a lesson!"
Dugu Feng said coldly.
With his strength, he truly had no fear of Dugu Bo.
On the contrary, since Dugu Bo had made a move, he might as well teach the other a lesson.
Let Dugu Bo understand just how vast the gap was between Serpent Cultivation and Venom Cultivation.
