Help Dugu Yan Awaken Her Body Martial Soul? Dugu Bo: Bai He, I'm Not Negotiating With You!

Yu Nan explained:

"However, Yan Yan is currently only at the Spirit King realm, and the spirit power within her body is still in the process of transitioning from a gaseous to a liquid state.

Attempting to forcibly condense a Spirit Core at this stage will not only fail, but the loss of control over her spirit power will directly rupture her dantian, causing her to explode and die."

"Hiss--"

Dugu Bo drew a sharp breath, hurriedly dismissing the thought:

"This old man was reckless. Many thanks for the reminder, Senior."

"No need to rush."

Yu Nan said indifferently:

"Although the Spirit Core cannot be condensed for the time being, I have a more far-reaching plan for Yan Yan's cultivation path."

Speaking to this point, Yu Nan paused, his tone revealing an indescribable arrogance and mystery:

"The Spirit Core is merely an auxiliary; true powerhouses cultivate themselves."

"I intend to utilize the meridians within her body, which have been strengthened by the Ice and Fire Golden Body Refinement, and supplement them with constant stimulation from potent toxins, along with the stacking of several specific spirit bones later on..."

"I will have her awaken a 'Body Martial Soul' in the future!"

"Body Martial Soul?"

Dugu Yan and Dugu Bo exclaimed in their hearts almost in unison.

This term was far too unfamiliar to the spirit masters of the current Douluo Continent.

Dugu Yan blinked her large, emerald-green eyes and asked with a face full of curiosity:

"Senior, what is a Body Martial Soul?

Is it literal?

Do I use my own body as a martial soul?"

In her understanding, martial souls were always beasts, objects, or plants.

How could one possibly use their own body as a martial soul?

"Correct, your comprehension is high."

Yu Nan praised:

"The so-called Body Martial Soul is to use the spirit master's own body parts, or even the entire body, as the martial soul."

"For example, the eyes, arms, torso, or even... blood and meridians."

Yu Nan's voice became low and filled with temptation:

"In the current spirit master world, the mainstream remains beast martial souls and tool martial souls.

But they do not know that the human body itself is the most precise vessel in this world, and also the most powerful weapon."

"Martial Soul Possession is, after all, borrowing the power of a beast.

But the Body Martial Soul excavates the hidden potential of the human body itself!"

"Once a Body Martial Soul is awakened, not only can it allow a spirit master to reach the pinnacle of self-control, but more importantly..."

"A Body Martial Soul possesses the ability of 'Secondary Awakening'!"

"Secondary Awakening?!"

Dugu Bo listened, stunned; this had completely touched upon his blind spot of knowledge.

"Exactly."

Yu Nan continued:

"Yan Yan, although your Jade Phosphorous Serpent Emperor is powerful, it is ultimately a manifestation of an external object.

If you can thoroughly integrate the toxicity of the Jade Phosphorous Serpent Emperor into every drop of your blood and every inch of your skin.

Let your body become the source of the poison, rather than just its carrier."

"At that time, you will no longer be a 'spirit master who controls the Jade Phosphorous Serpent Emperor'."

"You yourself will be that 'Beautiful Snake' capable of poisoning the entire world."

Listening to Yu Nan's description, Dugu Yan couldn't help but visualize the scene in her mind.

No longer relying on Martial Soul Possession, every gesture would be a world-destroying toxin, and every blink of her eyes would be a divine light capable of petrifying all things...

That realm made her tremble with excitement and her blood boil just thinking about it.

"Senior, I am willing!"

Dugu Yan's eyes burned with a raging fire of ambition:

"As long as I can become stronger, no matter how painful the toxin stimulation is, I can endure it!"

"Very good."

Yu Nan smiled with satisfaction:

"That ruthless streak is exactly what you need."

"Once we obtain the Crystal Blood Dragon Ginseng, combined with the restorative power of that Blue Silver Emperor Right Leg Bone, we can begin the first stage of our 'blood transfusion' attempt."

"As for now..."

Yu Nan's perception extended forward, sensing the aura of the small town hidden within the mountain forest in the distance.

"Let's go secure that immortal herb from that old white bird first."

Above the inconspicuous small town outside Dragon Rising City, the previously clear sky suddenly darkened. A terrifying, suffocating pressure descended with the force of Mount Tai.

This pressure carried not a shred of killing intent, yet it exuded a chilling, cloying sweetness that made the soul tremble.

It was as if an ancient giant python were coiled amidst the clouds, coldly looking down upon the ants below.

"Hiss—"

Within the town, every spirit master felt their chest tighten at that moment, their spirit power stagnating.

Those with weaker cultivation simply collapsed to the ground, shivering in terror.

"May I ask which Title Douluo has graced us with their presence? I, Bai He of the Speed Clan, apologize for failing to welcome you!"

An aged yet somewhat sharp voice rang out from the depths of the town.

Immediately following, a white figure streaked across the sky like lightning, appearing in mid-air.

The newcomer was none other than the patriarch of the Speed Clan, Bai He.

Yet at this moment, the old man renowned throughout the spirit master world for his speed had a forehead beaded with cold sweat.

As he looked at the figure floating opposite him—Dugu Bo, standing with his hands behind his back in a green robe, accompanied by a girl with an indifferent expression—his pupils contracted sharply.

"Poi... Poison Douluo?!"

Bai He's heart sank to the bottom of a well.

The reputation of Dugu Bo was thunderous throughout the spirit master world.

In particular, his volatile temperament and his poison arts, capable of slaughtering entire cities on a whim, were enough to strike fear into anyone's heart.

With the Speed Clan already fallen to such a state, if they were targeted by this Old Poison Freak...

"Heh, old man Bai He, it's been many years, but your speed hasn't dropped much."

Dugu Bo greeted him with a mirthless smile, his emerald eyes scanning Bai He up and down as if looking at prey waiting to be slaughtered.

"I wonder what business brings the Poison Douluo here?"

Bai He suppressed the unease in his heart and cupped his hands.

"My Speed Clan has long since lived in seclusion; I don't believe we have ever offended Your Excellency?"

"Offended? No, not at all."

Dugu Bo waved his hand dismissively, his tone as casual as if he were chatting about daily chores.

"I have come today simply to ask you for something."

"Something?"

Bai He was stunned.

"I hear you are in possession of a 'Crystal Blood Dragon Ginseng'?"

A playful arc curled at the corner of Dugu Bo's mouth.

"As it happens, my granddaughter has reached a bottleneck in her cultivation and is in need of a tonic. I figured that such a heavenly treasure would be wasted in your hands, so why not... lend it to me?"

Upon hearing the words "Crystal Blood Dragon Ginseng," Bai He's expression changed instantly.

His previously hunched frame straightened abruptly, a flash of resolve and vigilance appearing in his eyes.

"The Poison Douluo must be joking!"

Bai He gritted his teeth.

"That Crystal Blood Dragon Ginseng is the heirloom of my Speed Clan and the hope for our future. I cannot comply with your request!"

This immortal herb was his final trump card for reviving his clan; how could he possibly hand it over?

"Hope?"

Dugu Bo let out a scoff, his disdain unconcealed.

"A bunch of bird-men who only know how to run away—do you even deserve to speak of hope?"

"Bai He, I am not here to negotiate with you."
