Old Poison's Gamble!
Lin Feng's casual question was like an invisible hand gripping the throats of everyone present.
The hotel was deathly silent.
Now, are you going to give them all to me?
Dugu Bo's body, kneeling on the ground, stiffened uncontrollably.
In his mind, it was as if two great armies were fighting fiercely, turning the world upside down.
On one side was Chrysanthemum Douluo's fanatical and twisted description from just now.
A single plant can give someone with mediocre talent the potential to become a Title Douluo!
One plant is enough to Martial Soul Evolution!
And he owns an entire garden!
That is a supreme treasure enough to create several Title Douluo and enough to change the entire continent's landscape!
On the other side, there was the shocking scene of Xue Ye visibly regaining his youth and gaining twenty years of lifespan after swallowing that pill.
The two options weighed heavily on his heart like two mountains, making it almost impossible for him to breathe.
The surrounding diners unconsciously held their breath.
That was an entire garden full of Immortal Herb!
They just gave it away like that?
Anyone in this situation would be driven crazy with anxiety!
Chrysanthemum Douluo was so anxious that he scratched his head and cheeks. Looking at Dugu Bo's ever-changing expression, his heart was in his throat.
In this suffocating silence...
Dugu Bo slowly lowered his head.
He saw his own hands, which had become dry and wrinkled, like the bark of an old tree, due to the poison of the Jade Phosphor Serpent Emperor.
He recalled the boundless pain he felt each time the poison flared up, the pain of having his heart gnawed by a thousand ants, and the urge to smash his head against a wall and die.
He then thought of his only granddaughter, Dugu Yan, who was already showing signs of poisoning.
In the end, all hesitation, all greed, and all reluctance were shattered at this moment by the deep-seated family affection.
Dugu Bo bit his tongue hard, and the sharp pain instantly restored clarity and determination to his eyes!
Everyone saw him suddenly raise his head, and in his emerald green snake eyes, there was no longer any confusion, only a resolute emotion!
"Senior!"
His voice was hoarse, yet every word was firm and resonant, like metal striking the ground!
"Since I have already stated that I will offer it to you, senior, how could I be a dishonest person?!"
"Besides," Dugu Bo smiled bitterly, a hint of relief in his smile, "No matter how precious the Immortal Herb are, you still need to be alive to enjoy them!"
"What's the use of guarding a mountain of gold if you're going to die?!"
He kowtowed deeply to Lin Feng once more!
His forehead struck the hard floor with a dull thud, utterly genuine!
"Today, I, a junior, am willing to exchange the medicinal garden I have guarded all my life for a way out for my grandfather and me!"
"Please, senior... grant my request!"
These words shocked everyone present!
The crowd, who had been fretting over him and even secretly despising his greed, all looked at Dugu Bo with a completely different expression.
There was a sense of awe, admiration, and even a touch of self-deprecation in it.
Honestly, if I possessed such a treasure trove, would I still be able to so decisively hand it over to someone else after learning its true value?
The vast majority of people can't do it!
Chrysanthemum Douluo opened his mouth, looking at Dugu Bo's back with an extremely complicated expression.
This old monster... this time, he actually showed some guts.
Lin Feng's eyebrows twitched almost imperceptibly.
To be honest, he thought the old man would change his mind or try to bargain after learning the truth.
Unexpectedly, he was so decisive.
Just then, the system's unchanging, sharp tongue echoed in Lin Feng's mind.
[Hey, host, you've struck gold!]
[This system has detected that this person has a unique thought process; they haven't been blinded by money, which is truly rare.]
[Suggestion: A generous bonus could be offered. After all, it's like spending a fortune to buy a horse's bones; setting an example today makes it easier to fool more innocent victims in the future... cough, esteemed guests, come and spend money.]
The playful smile on Lin Feng's lips finally faded.
He looked at Dugu Bo, who was kneeling on the ground with a resolute look in his eyes, showing no regret whatsoever, and nodded slightly.
"As you wish."
He didn't even get up.
He simply leaned back lazily, pointing a finger at Dugu Bo in his direction, and flicked it in the air.
There were no earth-shattering phenomena.
There was no earth-shattering pressure.
Only a single, pure, cyan light drifted leisurely from his fingertip.
J was like a firefly on a summer night, swaying and fluttering towards Dugu Bo's brow.
However, every Title Douluo present trembled in their souls the moment they saw that point of blue light!
"Hold head high--!"
A roar filled with endless pain and suppressed emotions suddenly exploded from behind him!
A massive, dark green phantom uncontrollably shot into the sky from his body!
Jade Phosphor Serpent Emperor!
Its ferocious snake head, its cold, triangular pupils, and its rhomboid scales covering its entire body all exuded a chilling aura of deadly poison.
However, at this moment, the Jade Phosphor Serpent Emperor seemed to be enduring the most terrible torture in the world!
Its phantom twisted and tumbled wildly in mid-air, its massive body sometimes expanding and sometimes contracting, as if something was about to burst out from the deepest part of its body!
"This is..."
Chrysanthemum Douluo suddenly stood up, his face filled with horror.
But before he could finish speaking, something even more unbelievable happened!
To everyone's utter astonishment, the struggling Jade Phosphor Serpent Emperor had four fleshy bulges protruding from its smooth belly!
"Sizzle--!"
With a sound like flesh being torn apart, four sharp claws covered in fine scales and gleaming with a cold metallic light suddenly emerged from the fleshy mass!
Immediately afterwards, two sharp horns burst forth from its hideous snake head, tearing through its flesh and shooting skyward!
"Roar--!!!"
A roar, completely different from the previous ones, filled with majesty and power, resounded throughout the entire Maple Dye Pavilion!
The sound was no longer the hiss of a snake, but carried a hint of... a dragon's roar!
The dark green poisonous light dissipated, replaced by a deep, abyss-like bluish-black color!
The original Jade Phosphor Serpent Emperor has now been completely transformed!
That's no longer a snake!
Instead, it was a dark blue-black dragon with four claws on its belly and two prominent horns on its head!
Jade Phosphor Flood Dragon!
A brand new Martial Soul that has never been recorded in the Douluo Continent's classic texts!
"Pulse."
Holy Dragon Douluo Tuoba Xi swallowed hard, feeling a fear originating from the depths of his bloodline that made his whole body go weak.
The Sacred Giant Dragon Martial Soul within him uncontrollably let out a mournful cry, much like Haozi seeing a cat.
It wasn't just Tuoba Xi.
Even Qian Daoliu and Bo Saixi stopped eating, their spoons never stopping.
He completely forgot about the delicious Egg Fried Rice in his mouth.
Their eyes were fixed on the strange phantom of the Martial Soul in mid-air.
The Martial Soul within his body was uncontrollably issuing warnings.
They had never seen this Martial Soul before.
Its origins are completely unknown.
But deep within my heart, a voice was screaming frantically—
This is a realm beyond the reach of ordinary people!
This Martial Soul has entered the ranks of gods!
