Jade Phosphor Scorpion Poison

Seeing Dugu Yang open his eyes, Dugu Bo finally relaxed.

"Xiaoyang, did you succeed?"

"I did!"

"Judging by that look, you must have obtained the soul skill you wanted."

Seeing the uncontrollable upward curve of Dugu Yang's lips, Dugu Bo teased him.

Dugu Yang chuckled and nodded.

What Dugu Bo did not know was that the benefits Dugu Yang had gained from absorbing this Spirit Ring far exceeded imagination.

Not only had he obtained the Poison Sac, the foundation of his Ultimate Poison plan, but more importantly, he had learned the true function of his Golden Finger and found the soul skill Poison Body Adaptation.

Dugu Yang was now growing increasingly confident in his Godhood Plan.

"Not bad. Aside from the soul skill, did any of your other aspects improve? Such as your Soul Power Level?"

Dugu Bo asked again.

Only after his reminder did Dugu Yang notice that the Soul Power within his body had greatly surpassed what it had been before. His Soul Power Level was now roughly level 12.

Clearly, this roughly Six Hundred Year Spirit Ring had directly raised Dugu Yang's Soul Power Level by two levels.

Not only that, Dugu Yang's body had also grown somewhat sturdier than before.

"It rose by two levels."

Hearing this, Dugu Bo smiled and said:

"Very good. As expected of a Six Hundred Year Spirit Ring. It has saved you quite a bit of arduous cultivation time."

As he spoke, Dugu Bo seemed to recall something else.

"Xiaoyang, Yanzi said before that once you obtained your first Spirit Ring, she wanted to spar with you. Now that you're a One Ring Soul Master, do you want to accept her challenge?"

"If you can win, this old man can give you a reward."

Dugu Bo said with a smile.

In his eyes, this nephew-grandson of his had a steady and tenacious temperament and would not be distracted by external things. That was also the greatest reason Dugu Bo valued him.

Yet his flaw was that he was too composed, entirely lacking the boldness and vigor a youth should possess.

Thus, Dugu Bo hoped Dugu Yang would display the side of himself that a youth ought to have.

However, in Dugu Bo's view, Dugu Yang probably would not accept. After all, his personality was simply too...

"Alright!"

"Hm?"

Dugu Bo froze slightly.

"Xiaoyang, you want to accept?"

Dugu Yang, who had always cultivated quietly and kept a low profile, was actually taking the initiative to accept the challenge. This was beyond Dugu Bo's expectations.

Dugu Yang nodded. "But Second Grandfather, if I win, can I choose the reward myself?"

"Of course you can. As long as this old man has it, I'll definitely give it to you."

Dugu Bo said, patting his chest.

"What if it's spirit grass growing around the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Eye?"

Dugu Yang pursed his lips and looked at Dugu Bo with his black eyes.

"You want those spirit grasses?"

"Yes, I want one of them."

"No problem. But you must be careful. Although they are spirit grasses, most of them contain potent poison. One careless mistake could leave you poisoned to death."

When Dugu Bo said this, he showed no reluctance at all. He was merely warning Dugu Yang.

Hearing that, Dugu Yang felt somewhat moved.

Although Dugu Bo did not recognize Immortal Grade Spirit Grass, as the Poison Douluo, he could not possibly be unaware of how precious those Immortal Grade Spirit Grasses were.

Yet even so, when he learned that Dugu Yang wanted one, he did not hesitate in the slightest. That was enough to prove that, in his heart, Dugu Yang was far more important than those Immortal Grade Spirit Grasses.

As touched as he was, Dugu Yang also secretly swore that he would completely resolve the Jade Phosphor Serpent Martial Soul Drawback and bring glory to the Dugu Clan.

"Second Grandfather, thank you!"

Dugu Yang said solemnly, his childish face filled with sincerity.

"It's only a spirit grass with unknown medicinal effects. What does it amount to?"

Dugu Bo waved a hand, clearly not taking the matter to heart, then joked:

"But we agreed that you can only take the spirit grass if you beat Yanzi."

"I'll definitely win!"

Dugu Yang smiled. He had already decided that, no matter what, he would defeat Dugu Yan.

Seven days later.

Dugu Yang sat cross-legged before a Pale Pink Large Flower. Scales covered his cheeks, and his Spirit Ring glowed around him. He was clearly in a Martial Soul Possession state.

A light green pill the size of a bull's eye rested in his mouth. As his Soul Power washed over it, the dark green color on the pill's surface gradually faded.

This pill was no great restorative medicine. On the contrary, it was a Poison Pill from the Jade Phosphor Scorpion, one of the Jade Phosphor Five Poisons that stood alongside the Jade Phosphorous Serpent.

Moreover, it was a Poison Pill produced by a Thousand Year Level Jade Phosphor Scorpion, containing all the poison of that Thousand Year Jade Phosphor Scorpion.

What Dugu Yang was doing now was using the soul skill Poison Sac to consume this Jade Phosphor Scorpion Poison Pill.

There was no need to question the power of the Poison Sac. It was the most crucial link in Dugu Yang's Ultimate Poison plan.

Yet in the process of consuming potent poison, Dugu Yang himself would also be poisoned.

Even as a Poison Soul Master, he was only a level 12 One Ring Soul Master right now. He could not possibly endure the ravages of Thousand Year Jade Phosphor Scorpion poison for long.

Thus, he could only consume the potent poison while detoxifying himself at the same time.

The process was painful and lengthy, but diligence was rewarded. After a full five days, Dugu Yang was finally about to consume this Thousand Year Jade Phosphor Scorpion Poison Pill completely.

As the Poison Pill completely turned white, all the poison contained within it had been consumed by Dugu Yang.

Dugu Yang opened his eyes at that moment. With a thought, a drop of dark green liquid immediately seeped from his fair, slender fingertip.

This was Jade Phosphor Scorpion Venom.

Converting one's own Soul Power into potent poison was the most basic ability of all Poison Soul Masters. Under normal circumstances, however, a Poison Soul Master could only convert it into a single kind of poison.

For example, Dugu Yan could only produce Jade Phosphor Snake Poison.

But now, besides his own Jade Phosphor Snake Poison, Dugu Yang could also convert his Soul Power into Jade Phosphor Scorpion Poison, and this scorpion poison was even stronger than Jade Phosphor Snake Poison.

After all, this was poison from the Poison Pill of a Thousand Year Jade Phosphor Scorpion. It was not something the snake poison produced by Dugu Yang, a One Ring Soul Master, could compare with.

"This is only the beginning. Once I consume all the Jade Phosphor Five Poisons, Jade Phosphor Flower Poison, and the rest, my poison will evolve into Ultimate Poison. Even if it cannot become Ultimate Poison, it will surely become a poison with no cure in this world!"

A sharp light flickered in Dugu Yang's eyes. He seemed to see the scene of enemies collapsing from poison the moment they stood before him, without him needing to lift a hand.

Just as Dugu Yang was lost in his fantasies, a sharp feminine shout suddenly rang out.

"Dugu Yang! I heard you absorbed a Six Hundred Year Spirit Ring? Let me see how much skill you've gained, you stuffy bore!"

With the voice, a graceful figure entered Dugu Yang's field of vision.

It was none other than Dugu Yan.

Dugu Yang and Dugu Yan had known each other for half a year. Although she did not remain in the Mountain Valley all the time, she came by often.

They were the same age and blood relatives with Martial Souls of the same origin. Over time, they had become something like childhood sweethearts.

However, although their relationship was quite good, Dugu Yan had always wanted to teach Dugu Yang a lesson.

The reason was rather childish. Dugu Yan was clearly two months older than Dugu Yang, yet whenever they were together, he seemed more like the older brother while she seemed like the younger sister.

Thus, Dugu Yan wanted to establish her status as the "older sister" by defeating Dugu Yang.

Naturally, Dugu Yang, with his mature soul, would not fight over something so trivial. He ignored Dugu Yan's provocations every time. Moreover, Dugu Bo did not permit them to fight, so Dugu Yan had never had the chance.
