It will not only enhance his poison skills to a higher level.
It might even completely solve the problem of backlash from the venom of the Jade Phosphorus Snake that has plagued the family for a century!
Thinking of this, Dugu Bo's breathing became heavy.
But he was, after all, an old hand, and by nature suspicious and cautious.
"Yanyan, take half a step back."
Dugu Bo let out a low shout, then raised his withered fingers, the tips of which were surrounded by a green light.
hiss--
A small, emerald-green snake, formed entirely from pure soul power, flicked its tongue.
Like a green lightning bolt, it shot into the billowing smoke and dust in an instant.
This was his test.
If the ferocious beast still had any strength left, this little snake of soul power would be crushed instantly, and might even turn against him with its soul power.
Without saying a word, he turned and ran.
One second.
Two seconds.
Three seconds passed.
The small snake of soul power slithered through the smoke and dust, even daring to approach the enormous creature, but it never provoked any counterattack.
There wasn't even the slightest fluctuation of soul power.
It was a deathly silence.
"No response at all?"
Dugu Bo clenched his fist tightly, the tension on his face instantly turning into wild joy, his mouth stretching to his ears:
"Ha ha ha ha!
Heaven is helping me!
This is truly a stroke of luck!
This beast is probably already dead!
This is a golden opportunity, don't miss it!
"Yanyan, stay close to Grandpa!"
Our Dugu family's opportunity has arrived!
Dugu Bo could no longer contain his excitement and grabbed Dugu Yan's wrist.
His figure suddenly rose up, transforming into a green afterimage.
He rushed headlong into the center of the crater, which was filled with the smell of sulfur and burning.
A fierce wind howled, and the dust was forcibly dispersed by Dugu Bo's domineering soul power.
The next moment.
The grandfather and grandson suddenly stopped at the edge of the crater.
When Dugu Bo, who was well-versed in the world, saw the curled-up body in the center of the crater, even his pupils dilated in shock.
He stood there, completely stunned.
"This...this is..."
What he saw on the scorched earth was not the giant snake or other soul beast he had expected.
Instead, it was a true dragon, its entire body covered in broken purple-gold scales, with prominent horns and five claws on its belly!
Although its body was charred black and its breath was as faint as a thread, it seemed as if it would die at any moment.
But that aura of superiority emanating from the depths of one's bloodline was the terrifying aura of the ancestor of all poisons.
Even with their Azure Phosphorus Serpent King/Azure Scale Serpent Martial Souls, Dugu Bo and Dugu Yan still felt a chill run down their spines!
"A dragon...it's actually a true dragon with poison attributes?!"
Dugu Bo's voice became sharp and hoarse due to excessive excitement:
"This is hardly a 200,000-year-old soul beast..."
This is a miracle!
The green light in Dugu Bo's eyes was almost tangible.
"Yanyan, step back!"
Dugu Bo let out a low roar, and the nine spirit rings beneath his feet suddenly lit up.
Yellow, yellow, purple, purple, black, black, black, black, black!
The aura of a titled Douluo erupted without reservation.
Behind him, the enormous phantom of the Azure Phosphorous Serpent King raised its head and hissed, opening its blood-red maw.
He exhaled a thick, highly poisonous mist towards Yu Nan, who was on the verge of death in the crater.
Even though it was determined that the opponent was on the verge of death, a lion uses its full strength to hunt a rabbit.
Dugu Bo's plan is to first use his own deadly poison to completely paralyze the opponent, and then deliver a fatal blow by removing the bone and skinning the victim!
"Old man, you really went all out!"
Yu Nan cursed inwardly, the stench and poison that hit him made his already broken dragon body even worse.
Normally.
This little bit of poison is only good enough to be a snack for him.
But there's nothing I can do; my body is riddled with holes now, so I'm still susceptible to infection.
In this critical moment, Yu Nan's brain was working at lightning speed.
Either way, it's death?
Let's take a big gamble!
A flash of inspiration struck Yu Nan.
The image of the Heavenly Dream Ice Silkworm immediately came to mind!
How was that big worm made?
Because it was voluntarily sacrificed to Huo Yuhao, who had just left the beginner village, it became an unprecedented wisdom soul ring.
Not only did he help Huo Yuhao achieve godhood, but he also gained an immortal godhood himself, and even won the heart of a beautiful woman!
"I know this script very well!"
Suddenly, a startling glint flashed in Yu Nan's dim dragon eyes.
The current situation is simply a godsend!
Dugu Bo, this old poisoner, has exhausted his potential; at his age, he's still just a "banned floor tile."
Offering him a sacrifice would be like throwing good money after bad; it would not only be pointless but would also leave you feeling humiliated.
Furthermore, Dugu Bo's nine rings are already full, so it seems he can't make a sacrifice at all?
But Dugu Yan is different!
Yu Nan's gaze instantly locked onto the purple-haired girl who was being protected behind Dugu Bo.
How old is she?
He's only around twenty years old!
Most importantly, Dugu Yan's soul power is currently unstable.
He should have just broken through level 40.
Dugu Bo took Dugu Yan into the Sunset Forest on this trip.
Clearly, Dugu Yan needs a fourth spirit ring!
Level 40...
This means that Tang San, that overpowered guy, hasn't had time to go to the Ice and Fire Yin-Yang Well to get supplies yet!
The garden full of magical herbs, such as the fiery apricot, the eight-cornered ice grass, and the longing dew... all still bear the surname "Dugu"!
"As long as I offer sacrifices to Dugu Yan."
With my two hundred thousand years of true dragon essence, I can absolutely suppress and fuse with her Azure Phosphorous Serpent Martial Soul, and even cause it to mutate and evolve!
"Furthermore, given my understanding of the original plot, I used the immortal herbs from the Yin-Yang Well of Ice and Fire to cleanse her marrow and improve her aptitude..."
"Don't even mention a Title Douluo, I can push her to become a god!"
If you help Dugu Yan become a god, I can also achieve immortality!
This deal is a guaranteed money-maker!
Now that you've made up your mind, don't procrastinate!
Seeing that the highly poisonous soul skill that had already taken shape in Dugu Bo's hand was about to fall, Yu Nan no longer hesitated.
"hold head high--!!!"
A loud yet somewhat tragic dragon roar suddenly erupted from the center of the crater.
It instantly dispersed the poisonous mist released by Dugu Bo.
"sucker Punch?"
Dugu Bo sneered and was about to make a move when his expression suddenly changed drastically.
Suddenly, the purple-gold poisonous dragon, which had been on the verge of death, burst into a strange crimson flame.
That was no ordinary fire; it was the life-giving fire that burned the soul and the very essence of existence!
An indescribable, terrifying magnetic field emanated from Yu Nan's body and instantly spread outwards.
Buzz—!
It was as if the world had been put on pause.
The once howling winds of the Sunset Forest's core area have now become deathly silent.
Dugu Bo was horrified to discover this.
His immense soul power, befitting a titled Douluo, was completely solidified within this crimson magnetic field.
He couldn't even move a single finger!
"What...what kind of soul skill is this?!"
Dugu Bo was horrified as he watched helplessly as the enormous venomous dragon's body began to disintegrate.
It transformed into countless purple-gold specks of light.
However, these points of light did not dissipate, nor did they attack him.
Instead, as if they had found their home, they rushed frantically toward the Dugu Yan behind him, who also had a blank expression!
"No!! Yan Yan!!"
Dugu Bo's eyes were bloodshot with rage, believing that this ferocious beast was trying to take his granddaughter down with it before it died, but he was powerless to stop it.
