"Channel it? Transform it? Make it my own?"
Dugu Bo murmured the words, light flickering in his jade-green eyes.
The idea was utterly unlike anything he had considered before. It even bordered on heresy.
Poison had always been a weapon for harming one's enemies.
It was also a double-edged blade that harmed its wielder. How could he truly make it his own?
Yet somehow, Li Yuan's words seemed to tear open a thin sliver of light in the pitch-black road of despair before him.
"Easy for you to say! How do I channel it? How do I transform it? What in this world can channel and transform the poison of the Jade Phosphorous Serpent Emperor?"
Dugu Bo quickly calmed down and pressed him sharply.
An idea without a method was nothing but empty talk.
"That would require finding the right vessel and medium."
Dugu Bo sneered. "A vessel? A medium? What do you think could serve as a vessel for my Jade Phosphorous Serpent venom?"
Li Yuan remained unhurried. "All things under heaven give rise to and restrain one another. A rare object capable of countering Jade Phosphorous Serpent Emperor Poison might be hard to find, but something that can contain, channel, and transform its toxicity may well exist."
"For example... certain Heavenly Treasures imbued with extreme life force or the power to harmonize yin and yang. A special Soul Tool formation. Perhaps even... a poison of the same origin, but of a higher order."
His last suggestion was vague, but the words same origin, higher order made Dugu Bo's heart lurch.
The Jade Phosphorous Serpent Emperor was already a top-tier poison Martial Soul. What poison could possibly be of a higher order?
Li Yuan watched Dugu Bo's expression shift and knew he had said enough.
He could not reveal
