Super Douluo Expert, My Life Is Over!

After speaking, Dugu Bo immediately added, "Since you only know my title, you should know that poison is what I excel at most. To this day, I am the Title Douluo on the continent most skilled in poison. I have no fewer than a hundred ways to make your lives worse than death. Hand over the information on the spirit herbs now, and perhaps I'll let you die quickly!"

Ever since he had discovered this place, his greatest gain had been the ability to suppress the rampant poison within his body. Then there were the countless spirit herbs. To a Soul Master like him who cultivated poison, this place was practically a holy land, irresistibly alluring.

Unfortunately, although he recognized some of the spirit herbs, ninety-nine percent of the rest were completely unfamiliar to him. He had no idea what effects they possessed. Even if he researched them slowly, who knew how long it would take to fully understand their properties?

Yet when he had secretly observed these two unfamiliar young people who had infiltrated his Herb Garden, he had been astonished to discover that, despite their young age, they seemed to recognize all the spirit herbs here and even knew their effects.

If he obtained information about these spirit herbs, strengthening his poison arts would only be secondary. More importantly, he could use their effects to concoct an antidote that could ease the backlash of the Jade Phosphor Serpent Martial Soul upon its wielder—or perhaps even find a method to completely resolve it!

"Poison Douluo, do you really think you can kill us so easily?" Qian Renxue said with contempt in her eyes and disdain in her voice. Others might fear Dugu Bo, the Poison Douluo, but they certainly would not!

"Hahaha!" Dugu Bo burst into laughter. "Do you think that just because there are two ordinary Soul Masters, you can stand against me, Dugu Bo? Ridiculous! Utterly ridiculous!"

As he spoke, Dugu Bo did not hesitate. He immediately controlled his Jade Phosphor Serpent Martial Soul to release poisonous mist, which rapidly spread toward the two of them. He wanted to teach them a lesson and make them reveal the information about the spirit herbs sooner.

Facing the encroaching poisonous mist, Lin Xiao shielded Qian Renxue behind him. He gathered his Soul Power, and a barrier of Soul Power instantly appeared before them, protecting them from every angle and completely blocking Dugu Bo's poisonous mist outside.

Dugu Bo stared in surprise at Lin Xiao and Qian Renxue, who remained unharmed amid the poisonous mist. "Although the poisonous mist I released is not particularly powerful, it is still not something Soul Masters of your age should be able to withstand. It seems I underestimated you!"

As he spoke, Dugu Bo intended to increase the poison's potency, but Lin Xiao gave him no such opportunity. A violent blast of air erupted from Lin Xiao's position and swept in all directions, instantly dispersing the poisonous mist.

"Dugu Bo, the Poison Douluo, may be an expert at using poison, but among Title Douluo, he is at the bottom," Lin Xiao said coolly. Then he released his Soul Rings. Nine sinister Soul Rings appeared in full view, and Lin Xiao's unique aura burst forth completely.

"Black, black, black, black, black, black, red, red, red—nine Soul Rings! This young man is actually a Title Douluo!" Dugu Bo's eyes widened as he stared at Lin Xiao's displayed Soul Rings in shock.

Then, sensing Lin Xiao's powerful aura, Dugu Bo instantly understood. How could this person be a young man? He was clearly a veteran Title Douluo who had preserved his youth through some special method. Otherwise, Dugu Bo would not have failed to recognize him!

Most crucially, the other man's aura far surpassed his own.

Dugu Bo made his decision immediately. Realizing that Lin Xiao was someone he could not afford to provoke, he controlled his Jade Phosphor Serpent Emperor Martial Soul and fled swiftly toward the outside of the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well!

"Consider this old man defeated today. I never expected a senior Super Douluo to be here. This old man failed to recognize greatness. Take this place as my apology—it is yours, Senior!" Dugu Bo said without looking back.

"Run? Do you think you can get away? You wanted to kill us just now, and now you want to flee. Do you think we'll let you go?" Qian Renxue snorted coldly. "Brother Lin Xiao, don't let him escape!"

The dense killing intent Dugu Bo had just emitted, so thick it had nearly solidified, was no illusion. Since he had already intended to kill them, they had no intention of sparing him!

"Trying to run? Do you think you can escape?" Lin Xiao said in a grim voice.

In an instant, Lin Xiao unleashed a soul skill. His eighth Soul Ring, a 100,000-Year Soul Ring, shone brightly. "Eighth Soul Skill: Dragon Soul: Ten Directions Wandering Dragon!"

As Lin Xiao formed hand seals with both hands, a dragon's roar resounded through heaven and earth, deafeningly loud. The space within a two-kilometer radius was completely sealed, while hundred-meter black dragons began to condense in ten directions.

His External Martial Soul was different from Yu Xiaogang's Martial Soul, Luo Sanpao. His Martial Soul could use soul skills, and he himself could do the same. If the Black Dragon also acted now, it would be equivalent to having two Super Douluo!

Having escaped the valley, Dugu Bo broke out in a cold sweat, his heart trembling as he muttered, "That young man hid himself so perfectly that I never realized he was a Super Douluo expert. That was close. Fortunately, this old man was wise enough to run quickly. Otherwise, I might have become a lost soul beneath that young man's hands!"

At that moment, a dragon's roar thundered through Sunset Forest, deafeningly loud. In the next instant, a crimson barrier appeared in the sky and slowly began to form, spreading outward from the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well.

"A dragon's roar... Could this Super Douluo's Martial Soul be a dragon?" Dugu Bo was terrified. The moment the dragon's roar sounded, even his Martial Soul had begun to tremble.

"This is that Super Douluo's Martial Soul. It seems to be a barrier. If the barrier fully forms, I may not be able to leave this place. No, I need to speed up!" Dugu Bo thought to himself.

Controlling his Jade Phosphor Serpent Emperor Martial Soul, he rapidly shifted through the air. He had to leave before the barrier was fully completed.

Just as Dugu Bo was about to reach the outside of the barrier, black energy slowly gathered before him, forming a hundred-meter black dragon that let out a hysterical roar.

"This way won't work!" Dugu Bo immediately changed direction and sped off another way.

"This way won't work either!" Seeing the black dragon in the distance, Dugu Bo began to despair. The barrier had fully formed. He discovered that hundred-meter black dragons stood guard in all ten directions, completely sealing every possible escape route.

"So this is the soul skill possessed by a 100,000-Year Soul Ring." Dugu Bo gritted his teeth and controlled the Jade Phosphor Serpent Emperor Martial Soul to charge directly into the barrier.

With a boom, the Jade Phosphor Serpent Emperor Martial Soul slammed into the barrier and was immediately left dazed and disoriented, while the barrier remained completely unharmed.
