Better to Sacrifice Than Wait for Death! Cultivate Dugu Yan into a God?! Initiate Sacrifice! (Seeking Collections!)

Not only could it elevate his poison arts to a higher level.

It might even completely resolve the Jade Phosphorous Serpent poison backlash that had plagued his family for a century!

Thinking of this, Dugu Bo's breathing grew heavy.

But he was, after all, a veteran of the world, naturally suspicious and cautious.

"Yan-yan, step back half a pace."

Dugu Bo let out a low shout, then raised his withered finger, green light swirling around the tip.

Hiss—

A small Jade Phosphorous Serpent, condensed entirely from pure soul power, flicked its tongue.

Like a bolt of green lightning, it instantly shot into the billowing dust and smoke.

This was his probe.

If that fierce beast still had any strength left, this soul power serpent would be crushed in an instant, and the backlash might even travel back along his soul power to strike him.

In that case, he would turn and run without a second thought.

One second.

Two seconds.

Three seconds passed.

The soul power serpent slithered through the dust, even daring to approach the colossal creature, yet it never triggered any counterattack.

There wasn't even a ripple of soul power backlash.

It was a deathly silence.

"No reaction at all?"

Dugu Bo clenched his fist tightly, the tension on his face instantly transforming into wild joy, his mouth stretching to his ears:

"Hahahaha!

Heaven is helping me!

Truly, Heaven is helping me!

This wretched beast must already be a corpse!"

Opportunity knocks but once!

"Yan-yan, stay close to Grandfather!

The fortune of our Dugu family has arrived!"

Dugu Bo could no longer suppress the excitement in his heart and grabbed Dugu Yan by the wrist.

His figure erupted, transforming into a green afterimage.

He charged recklessly into the center of the crater, which was filled with the stench of sulfur and charred remains.

Gale winds howled as the dust was forcibly dispersed by Dugu Bo's domineering soul power.

The next moment.

The grandfather and granddaughter's figures suddenly froze at the edge of the crater.

When they saw the curled-up body in the center of the crater, even the well-informed Dugu Bo couldn't help but have his pupils dilate in shock.

He stood rooted to the spot.

"This... this is..."

Before them on the scorched earth was not the giant serpent or other soul beast he had expected.

But a True Dragon, its entire body covered in shattered purple-gold scales, with magnificent horns and five claws on its belly!

Although it was charred black all over and its aura was as weak as a gossamer thread, as if it might stop breathing at any moment.

Yet that pressure originating from the depths of its bloodline, that terrifying aura belonging to the Ancestor of All Poisons.

Still made Dugu Bo and Dugu Yan, who possessed the Jade Phosphorous Serpent Emperor/Jade Phosphorous Serpent spirits, feel a trembling from the depths of their souls!

"A dragon... and it's actually a poison-attribute True Dragon?!"

Dugu Bo's voice became sharp and hoarse from excessive excitement:

"This is no mere two-hundred-thousand-year soul beast...

This is a miracle!"

The green light in Dugu Bo's eyes almost turned into physical substance.

"Yan-yan, back away!"

Dugu Bo let out a low roar, and the nine soul rings beneath his feet suddenly lit up.

Yellow, yellow, purple, purple, black, black, black, black, black!

The momentum of a Titled Douluo erupted without reservation.

Behind him, the massive phantom of the Jade Phosphorous Serpent Emperor reared its head and hissed, opening its blood-red maw.

It spat a dense, toxic mist toward Yu Nan, who lay dying in the crater.

Although he judged his opponent to be on the verge of death, even a lion uses its full strength to hunt a rabbit.

Dugu Bo intended to use his life-bound poison to completely paralyze his opponent before delivering a fatal blow to strip the bones and peel the skin!

Old thing, you're truly ruthless!

Yu Nan cursed inwardly; the foul, pungent stench of the oncoming poison only made his already shattered dragon body suffer further.

Under normal circumstances.

This poison would be nothing more than a snack to him.

But there was no helping it; his body was currently riddled with holes, and he would truly fall victim to it.

At this critical juncture, Yu Nan's brain raced at lightning speed.

Death either way?

Then he would gamble on something big!

A flash of inspiration struck Yu Nan's mind.

He instantly thought of the Sky Dream Ice Silkworm!

How did that big fleshy worm do it?

By voluntarily offering himself as a sacrifice to Huo Yuhao, who had just left the novice village, he became an unprecedented sentient spirit ring.

Not only did he help Huo Yuhao cheat his way to godhood, but he also hitched a ride to an eternal divine position and even won the heart of a beauty!

I'm familiar with this script!

A startling brilliance suddenly erupted from Yu Nan's dim dragon eyes.

The current situation was a god-given opportunity!

Dugu Bo, this old poison-master, had already exhausted his potential; at his age, he was still just a "floor-tile" Title Douluo.

Sacrificing to him would be like throwing a meat bun at a dog—not only would there be no future, but he would also have to suffer indignity.

Besides, Dugu Bo's nine rings were already full; it seemed he couldn't accept a sacrifice anyway?

But Dugu Yan was different!

Yu Nan's gaze instantly locked onto the purple-haired girl protected behind Dugu Bo.

How old was she?

Only about twenty!

Most importantly, Dugu Yan's spirit power fluctuations were unstable right now.

She must have just broken through level 40.

Dugu Bo bringing Dugu Yan into the Sunset Forest on this trip.

Clearly, Dugu Yan was in need of a fourth spirit ring!

Level forty...

This meant that the cheater Tang San hadn't yet had the chance to go to the Ice and Fire Yin-Yang Well to stock up!

That entire garden of immortal herbs—the Infernal Delicate Apricot, the Octagonal Mysterious Ice Grass, the Full Moon Wearing Autumn Dew... they all still bore the name "Dugu"!

As long as I sacrifice myself to Dugu Yan.

Relying on my 200,000-year True Dragon origin, I can absolutely force a suppression and fusion with her Jade Phosphorous Serpent Martial Soul, and perhaps even cause it to mutate and evolve!

Plus, with my knowledge of the original plot, I can use the immortal herbs from the Ice and Fire Yin-Yang Well to cleanse her marrow and improve her aptitude...

Never mind a Title Douluo, even if it's becoming a god, I can push her all the way up there!

If I lead Dugu Yan to godhood, I can follow her into eternity!

This deal is a massive profit, no losses!

Since the decision was made, there was no time to dawdle!

Seeing the toxic spirit skill already condensed in Dugu Bo's hand about to descend, Yu Nan no longer hesitated.

"ROAR--!!!"

A loud, yet somewhat tragic dragon roar erupted suddenly from the center of the crater.

It instantly dispersed the toxic mist released by Dugu Bo.

"A deathbed struggle?"

Dugu Bo sneered, just about to strike, when his expression suddenly changed drastically.

He saw that the Purple Gold Poison Dragon, which had been on its last breath, was suddenly engulfed in eerie blood-colored flames all over its body.

That was no ordinary fire; it was the flame of life, burning both soul and origin!

An indescribable, terrifying magnetic field centered on Yu Nan's body and instantly expanded outward.

Hum--!

It was as if the pause button had been pressed upon the world.

The core area of the Sunset Forest, previously howling with gale-force winds, had suddenly fallen into a deathly silence.

Dugu Bo discovered with horror.

His immense soul power, that of a Titled Douluo, had completely solidified within this blood-colored magnetic field.

He could not even move a single finger!

"Th-this... what kind of soul skill is this?!"

Dugu Bo was struck with terror, watching helplessly as the massive body of the Poison Dragon began to decompose.

It transformed into specks of purple-gold light that filled the sky.

However, these specks of light did not dissipate, nor did they attack him.

Instead, as if they had found their home, they surged frantically toward the figure behind him—Dugu Yan, who stood there with an equally dazed expression!

"No!! Yanyan!!"

Dugu Bo's eyes were on the verge of splitting, believing that the fierce beast intended to drag his granddaughter down with it before dying, yet he was utterly powerless to stop it.
