Chapter 28 Detoxification (Part 3)
The venomous python was slowly corroded to death, and its resentment was so strong that it dropped its soul bones.
Dugu Bo looked at the soul bone, his mouth almost stretched to his ears in a grin. This was a 70,000-year-old soul bone, enough to raise a Title Douluo below level 95 by one level, a treasure for poison-attribute soul masters.
Dugu Bo deactivated his Martial Soul True Body and dissipated the Soul Skill he had used. The lush green swamp returned to its original state, and he picked up the dark green Soul Bone and examined it carefully.
"Hmm~ Not bad luck, it's a right arm bone, its value is almost as high as my Medusa skull. I'll keep it for now and go hunt some more soul beasts."
Dugu Bo stored the soul bone in his storage soul tool and then headed to other places in Sunset Forest. He had several targets, including a 50,000-year-old Mandragora Snake King, a 50,000-year-old Cave Demon Spider, and a 40,000-year-old Black Jade Mamba.
Dugu Bo planned to cause trouble for these soul beasts first. If he could get high-quality soul bones, it would be a great harvest. The good start gave Dugu Bo a lot of confidence.
Eyes of Ice and Fire
Li Luochen and Dugu Yan were still discussing poisons. Li Luochen had studied medicine since childhood, so he was naturally familiar with poisons, after all, there is a saying that medicine and poison are inseparable.
Although Dugu Yan didn't study poison very hard, she had still learned about it and could answer quite a few questions. What surprised Li Luochen the most was that Dugu Bo knew how to use mixed poisons.
However, Dugu Bo called it "fusion snake venom," which means using multiple toxins together with the venom of the Jade Phosphorus Snake King. Isn't this the same as mixing venoms? It's likely that Dugu Bo didn't know the term "mixing venoms," so he called it "fusion snake venom."
I knew it! How could Dugu Bo, who had been involved with drugs for so many years, not know how to use mixed drugs? However, Dugu Bo was doing it more for self-preservation and didn't have time to study drugs too much. His main goal was to deal with the toxins inherited from his family.
However, it won't be long before the Dugu family says goodbye to their hereditary illness. Li Luochen has already figured out how to obtain the Immortal Herb Record.
First, let Dugu Bo and the others equip themselves with the soul bones. Then, force the poison into the soul bones and heal them to prevent the poison from continuing to erode them.
Overall, Li Luochen felt that apart from getting a beating, he was fine. He not only obtained the opportunity to get a magical herb, but also met a nice girl. Although the girl was currently a bit poisonous, it wasn't a big problem.
In the next few days, Li Luochen was going to find a place to break through to level 38. He had already reached the peak of level 37. The biggest benefit of consuming the two immortal herbs was that he gained a body that was immune to all poisons and his resistance to water and fire was greatly improved.
Furthermore, his martial soul has evolved from a high-level martial soul to a top-level martial soul. Originally, Li Luochen thought that the probability of becoming a Super Douluo through hard work was 40%, but now he is certain to become a Super Douluo. He is even confident that he can try to become a Limit Douluo.
As for gods, that's too far off. He doesn't like daydreaming. There are only four gods on the continent. The Rakshasa God isn't suitable for him. Qian Renxue is already the Angel God. He's probably not qualified for the Asura God. As for the Sea God, Li Luochen isn't sure if he can be chosen.
Anyway, he should cultivate to become a Title Douluo first and have a lifespan of several hundred years. As for gods, it depends on fate. It would be good if he could obtain one, but if not, so be it.
Li Luochen circulated the Zhou Tian Wuji Gong and found that his meridians were more resilient after undergoing the Ice and Fire Refinement Body. Six of the eight extraordinary meridians were now open, two of which were opened during the Ice and Fire Refinement Body.
His cultivation speed also increased significantly. What would have taken him over a year to break through to the Soul Master level now seemed to be possible in about six months. He hadn't fully absorbed the medicinal properties of the Ice and Fire Immortal Grass yet, but he expected to be able to fully absorb them by the time he reached the Soul Master level, after which he could then consume the Ink Jade Divine Bamboo. Two days later, Li Luochen successfully broke through to level thirty-eight. His soul power was abundant, and he felt that his Zhou Tian Wuji Gong could condense soul power. His soul power reserves were much greater than those of Soul Venerables of the same level, and he felt that his soul power reserves were at least at the Soul Master level.
In Li Luochen's opinion, his physical strength had already improved. Originally, his physical body could withstand a soul ring of a soul beast that was over 10,000 years old, and now he should be able to try a 20,000-year-old one.
As for his mental strength, he was no longer in a hurry. The Ice and Fire Yin-Yang Eye had the Autumn Water Dew and four Nourishing Spirit Flowers, which was enough for him to break through his mental strength. In fact, Li Luochen's mental strength was already able to withstand the soul shock of a ten-thousand-year-old soul beast, but he chose to take herbs to enhance his mental strength in order to be on the safe side.
Because Dugu Yan is still young and her soul power is not high enough, the poison attached to her first and second soul rings is not much, so she will not be affected by snake venom at present. Li Luochen wants to cure Dugu Bo's poison first before curing Dugu Yan.
After all, Dugu Yan will carry a ten-thousand-year soul bone in the future. If Dugu Bo is lucky, it may be a top-grade ten-thousand-year soul bone, which would put Dugu Yan in danger. Dugu Bo must become stronger first in order to protect the two of them.
Since Dugu Yan learned about the hereditary snake venom in her family, and that Li Luochen was able to help them detoxify, her life has been brightened. Moreover, Li Luochen has become her first friend, and may become the most important one in the future.
Besides cultivating, she now studies the cultivation notes left to her by Dugu Bo, which record how the Bilin family cultivates and their knowledge of poison making. She wants to become stronger and doesn't want to fall too far behind Li Luochen.
Li Luochen will also study drug-making knowledge with Dugu Yan, since learning more skills might come in handy at a crucial moment.
The two drew closer and closer until they could feel each other's breath. They looked into each other's eyes, their lips drawing ever closer, until just as they were about to kiss, a cough suddenly rang out.
"Cough cough."
The sudden cough startled the two, who immediately separated and turned around to see that it was Dugu Bo (the third wheel) who had returned.
At this moment, Dugu Bo thought to himself: 'This kid, in just a few days, he's already won over Yanyan? If I had waited a few more days, we probably would have already slept together. This rascal has already taken my cabbage so quickly.'
Dugu Bo was now completely exasperated, staring at Li Luochen and Dugu Yan with a chill running down his spine. After all, the two had just been too intimate, and their parents had caught them. However, Dugu Yan recovered quickly, immediately running up to Dugu Bo and shaking his hand vigorously.
"Grandpa, you're back! Yan Yan missed you so much! Grandpa must have had a great time. We've been waiting for you for so long."
"Heh, what you really wanted was for me not to come back, wasn't it? Luo Chen, you're quite something, managing to snag my cabbage in just a few days?"
Dugu Bo complained with a dark face, making Dugu Yan's pretty face turn red, while Li Luochen awkwardly scratched his head.
"Ahem, let's not talk about that. I did have a good harvest this time. I slaughtered more than twenty ten-thousand-year-old poison-attribute soul beasts and obtained three soul bones. Come and take a look."
With a wave of his hand, Dugu Bo produced three soul bones: one right arm bone and two left arm bones.
