People die for wealth, birds die for food.

Wu Qi felt no sympathy whatsoever.

The Soul Beast Forest is a lawless place where the strong prey on the weak; if he is weak, his enemies will show him no mercy.

With the edge of the Crane Cloud Wings fully transformed, and amplified by his Fourth Soul Skill, Wu Qi's attack power became terrifyingly strong.

Great Saber formed from feathers certainly cannot be compared to a real sword. However, in the face of absolute power, this difference is negligible.

Wing Blade burst forth, charging into the encirclement of the three, and with its formidable attack power and extreme speed, easily knocked them all to the ground.

Dugu Bo, who was standing to the side, paid close attention to the entire battle.

Sensing the fluctuations of Soul Power emanating from Wu Qi, he couldn't help but gasp in astonishment, "To be merely Soul Ancestor and yet possess such a solid foundation of Soul Power, this little guy will have no bottlenecks in his future breakthroughs!"

Moreover, Wu Qi's wings emanated an unusual aura of Soul Power.

Thanks to Wu Qi's excellent concealment, Dugu Bo only noticed the clues after sensing it several times.

"Could it be some kind of Torso Spirit Bone?"

Dugu Bo didn't think much of it. Although they hadn't known each other for long, after several exchanges, they had come to regard each other as trustworthy friends. He would ask Wu Qi about it later.

Some are happy, some are sad.

If he could do it all over again, Han Bo would never have jumped out to snatch the Soul Bone.

The battlefield had become a one-man show for Wu Qi. The three of them were doomed to defeat, and their desperate struggle was merely a delaying tactic to postpone their deaths.

The saying "You may have the life to enjoy it, but you may not have the life to enjoy it" is perfectly illustrated here.

Seeing that he was about to collapse, Han Bo quickly begged for mercy, "Young man, we were wrong. Please let us go, and we promise we won't bother you again."

Wu Qi shook his head. "You're not admitting your mistake; it's the fear of death that's driving you to beg for mercy. You already know we possess Soul Bone, and I've never liked creating trouble for myself."

"To me, only the dead can keep secrets."

Han Zhong was furious upon hearing this, "Damn it, do they really think we're easy to bully? Fourth Soul Skill!"

In a fit of anger, he snapped.

Wu Qi's speed was so fast that they didn't even have a chance to gather their strength and unleash their Soul Skill.

Faced with such a weak opponent, the three brothers died one by one at Wu Qi's hands in just five minutes.

After the battle ended, Wu Qi collected their valuables and waved to Dugu Bo.

"Old man, aren't you going to give your opinion?"

In the eyes of Titled Douluo, Wu Qi's methods may not seem like much, but among those of the same level, they are moves that are difficult to counter.

By stacking movement, speed, and attack power to the extreme at the same level, this fighting style is undoubtedly the simplest combat method and needs no further comment.

Dugu Bo said irritably, "Little fellow, are you perhaps indirectly mocking me for being inferior to you back then?"

Wu Qi relaxed and smiled. "I didn't mean that."

"By the way, what's the background of that Soul Bone on your back?"

Wu Qi had no need to hide anything from his own people. "External Soul Bone, huh? You're quite ignorant."

With the Soul Hunting over and nightfall approaching, the two returned to the Icefire Yin Yang Well.

During this time, after Dugu Bo repeatedly declined, Wu Qi finally accepted the Soul Bone.

"Old man, I've been gone for quite some time now, and your poison has been cured. I'll be going back tomorrow," Wu Qi said.

Dugu Bo pressed further, "Why don't you cultivate here a little longer? I can sense that if you use the Spring Water, your Soul Power Level can increase by two or three levels in a short time."

Wu Qi shook his head.

Currently, he is still some distance from level 50, and his cultivation speed will only slow down as he progresses.

It would be better to wait until the time is right, and then use the power of the Spring Water to break through level 50 directly.

It's important to know that if you stay in Spring Water for too long, your body will develop a certain resistance, and the effect of cultivation using Spring Water in the future will be much weaker.

The opportunity to cultivate only comes once, so why not use it when you're about to break through?

Dugu Bo nodded, then changed the subject, "By the way, I have some pharmacological questions I'd like to discuss with you. With your unique insights, perhaps you can help me solve these problems."

Wu Qi gave an awkward smile and scratched his head. "Um, to be honest, don't be angry."

"I know nothing about medicine, but I have in-depth knowledge of Martial Soul. When I met Dugu Yan before, I had a guess in my mind. The moment I saw you, I was certain that you and your grandfather had been poisoned by Martial Soul."

As he spoke, he couldn't help but feel a little guilty. "Originally, I was thinking of swindling some medicinal herbs from you, but I didn't expect you to have so many Immortal Herb, so I went along with it and offered the Poison Pill Method."

Dugu Bo was dumbfounded.

So, they're using him as Xiao Bai? Is the experimental theory even feasible?

He has now successfully condensed the Poison Pill, proving the feasibility of this method. Although he is dissatisfied, the facts are undeniable.

"Fine, I'm too lazy to argue with you. Since you're so proficient in Soul Master theory, why don't I teach you medicine? In the future, you can combine medicine with Soul Master theory and perhaps even create a completely new school of Soul Master theory."

"After you succeed, don't forget my help."

Almost all the theoretical Grandmaster in the Spirit Master world possess considerable Soul Master cultivation, except for one certain Grandmaster.

Given Wu Qi's cultivation speed, Dugu Bo believed that if Wu Qi compiled his cultivation achievements into a book, it would surely be a masterpiece admired by countless people.

Wu Qi quickly waved his hand, "Forget it, I need to go back and build my Battle Team. I don't have time for this right now. Anyway, Titled Douluo have long lifespans, there's plenty of time."

Dugu Bo stopped pressuring him.

There's a saying in the Spirit Master world: what you're thirty at age determines what you'll be like at eighty.

The cultivation achievements gained at age thirty can influence one's achievements at age eighty.

Wu Qi is still young, Dugu Bo believes that when he turns thirty, he will surely break many records in mainland China.

As for his achievements at age eighty, he could not predict them.

"Very well, I'll go back with you tomorrow."

"By the way, I'd like to ask you, should we let Yan Yan absorb the Immortal Herb first, or should we let her condense the Poison Pill first?"

Dugu Bo's cultivation level is not high, so the order doesn't matter.

Wu Qi suddenly realized something, his expression becoming extremely serious. "Old man, we absolutely cannot let too many people know about the Immortal Herb."

"Yu Tianheng is backed by the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan. If Thunder Douluo steps in to seize it, you won't be able to defend this treasure land."

"I know about the relationship between Dugu Yan and Yu Tianheng, but it concerns their very survival, so I hope you will take it seriously."

Needless to say, Dugu Bo knew what to do.

The rumors circulating in the city had already caused Yu Tianheng to lose face, and in order to regain the family's attention, he would definitely want to perform a great service.

If he knew about the Immortal Herb, he would definitely inform his family, which prompted Yu Yuanzhen in.

This precious land, the Icefire Yin Yang Well, could yield considerable profits from cultivating medicinal herbs, and might even become a treasure trove for the Dugu Clan to amass wealth in the future. It must not be lost.

"Little guy, are you really not considering Yan Yan? If I remember correctly, the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan has a clan rule."

If one chooses a non-Clan disciple as a partner, one's own cultivation level must be higher than that of the partner.

Yu Tianheng is at a crucial stage and cannot possibly violate the family rules!
