Background and History
Dugu Bo occupied the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well in Sunset Forest for decades, using it to alleviate the poison in his body. He surrounded the site with a poison formation but did not recognize the uses of its rare herbs 6 8.
His Martial Soul lacked venom glands, leaving its toxins distributed throughout his body. The hereditary poison caused severe pain, particularly at night and on rainy days; Dugu Yan carried the same problem, though her condition was less advanced 6 7 8.
Story Role
Capture and agreement with Tang Feng
At Heaven Dou Royal Academy, Tang Feng alarmed Dugu Bo by claiming to know about Dugu Yan’s poison. When Dugu Bo seized the King Ball from him, Tang Feng used it to capture him 5 6.
Tang Feng took Dugu Bo to the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well and repeatedly captured and released him until he stopped resisting. Dugu Bo then agreed to give Tang Feng the land, its treasures and the Wishful Hundred Treasure Pouch in exchange for treating him and Dugu Yan. The two made peace and called each other brothers 6 7.
Guardian and ally
Tang Feng prepared daily antidotes to help Dugu Bo and Dugu Yan transfer their toxins into a Cinnabar Pearl or Soul Bone. He also gave Dugu Bo a Jade Phosphorus Nine Absolute Flower for Dugu Yan. Dugu Bo’s symptoms eased, and he strengthened the poison formation while guarding the well for Tang Feng 7 8.
Dugu Bo helped Tang Feng cultivate by applying controlled Soul Power pressure. During one session, he witnessed Tang Feng’s God Tree Martial Soul and hundred-thousand-year Soul Ring, then broke through to Level 92 10 11.
At the Heaven Dou Great Soul Arena, Dugu Bo warned Tang Feng that his talent could attract dangerous attention and accompanied him to a meeting with Ning Fengzhi and Xue Qinghe for protection 12 14.
Heaven Dou and later reunion
Tang Feng warned Dugu Bo that Xue Qinghe would die from the poison associated with the second and third princes’ deaths, potentially implicating Dugu Bo and Xue Beng. After Xue Qinghe’s reported death, Prince Xue Xing asked Dugu Bo to identify the poison 16 18.
Dugu Bo continued checking the medicinal garden and recording the herbs’ growth. Tang Feng later tested Tsukuyomi on him, showing him an illusion, not an actual future, in which Dugu Yan became a Level 99 Limit Douluo 23.
Years later, Tang Feng reunited with Dugu Bo at Heaven Dou Royal Academy. At Dugu Bo’s request, Tang Feng helped Dugu Yan reach Level 50 and taught her the Six Powers 71.
Personality
Dugu Bo is fiercely devoted to Dugu Yan. He readily surrendered the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well for a chance to cure her, and his stated dream was to make her the strongest Titled Douluo 6 23.
Despite their hostile first meeting, he came to value Tang Feng as a brother and protected him from potential threats. He also respected Tang Feng’s secrets, choosing not to press him about the origin of his hundred-thousand-year Soul Ring 10 14.
