Divine needles purge the strange poison; a Titled Douluo pledges allegiance!
Dugu Bo slumped onto the gravel ground, as if all his strength had been drained away, even to stand up.
Those are three jet-black, ten- Ten Thousand Year Soul Ring!
Having lived most of his life, he had seen countless geniuses. Let alone a level 40 Soul Ancestor, even a level 60 Soul Emperor —who would dare say that their first three Soul Ring were all at the ten-thousand-year level?
Upon hearing Su Chen ask for the Wishful Treasure Pouch at his waist, Dugu Bo shuddered, no longer daring to harbor any thoughts of deception.
He scrambled to his feet, ripped off the Blue Leather Pouch, poured out the Nine-Section Jade and other poisonous creatures inside, and then presented the pouch to Su Chen with both hands.
"Young friend Su Chen, this Wishful Treasure Pouch is a top-grade Soul Tool that I obtained by chance many years ago. It contains a living space where flowers and plants placed inside will never wither for a hundred years. Please feel free to use it!"
Su Chen reached out and took the Blue Leather Pouch. It felt warm and supple to the touch. He probed it with his Soul Power and indeed sensed a strange space that was several dozen feet square. The space was full of spiritual energy, making it an excellent container for storing Immortal Herb.
He then turned around and his gaze fell on Dugu Bo's old face, which was filled with awe and expectation.
To completely turn this level 91 venomous snake into a vicious guard dog, you have to offer it plenty of sweetness first!
"The Medicine Garden won't run away. I always keep my word. First, I'll clean the rotten poison out of your bones."
Su Chen strode to a cluster of pale pink flowers about ten feet outside Yang Spring. The flowers were as large as peonies, with layers upon layers of petals, emitting a delicate and mellow fragrance. It was truly the bane of all poisons, Aromatic Silk Beauty.
Su Chen brought his right index and middle fingers together, with a wisp of condensed crimson-gold Dragon Astral Force swirling around the fingertips. He made a precise cut three inches above the root, severing the entire Aromatic Silk Beauty, and tossed it into Dugu Bo's arms.
"Take this Aromatic Silk Beauty, pluck two petals and hold them under your tongue. Sit cross-legged, remove your shirt, and completely unleash the Soul Power of the Medusa Head Soul Bone on your head. Do not offer the slightest resistance."
Dugu Bo hurriedly caught the flower, and when he lowered his head to smell its fragrance, he felt the Jade Phosphorous Serpent Emperor Poison that had been stirring within him instantly subside by 30%, and he was overjoyed.
He replied repeatedly, "Yes! I'll do whatever you command, young friend!"
At that moment, Dugu Bo dared not be negligent in the slightest. He tore off his dark green shirt, revealing his back covered with bluish-black poison spots, and sat down cross-legged.
As he deliberately dispersed his protective aura, a flash of blue light appeared on his forehead, and a phantom of a blue-green skull exuding a cold, petrifying aura slowly emerged.
Su Chen stood behind Dugu Bo, his eyes gleaming with a pale golden light from his Delusion-Breaking Divine Pupils.
In his view, a thick layer of dark green poison crystals, as thick as mud, had already accumulated inside Dugu Bo's Meridians and bones. In particular, the poison had almost gnawed away most of the bone marrow at three points: the Weilü Acupoint the spine, the liver meridian on both sides of the ribs, and the Baihui Acupoint on the top of the head.
In the original novel, Tang San's cultivation level was too low, so he could only rely on the Mother-Child Soul-Chasing Life-Taking Orb and medicinal herbs to slowly expel the poison from Dugu Bo, which took a full six months to take effect.
But with Su Chen's current absolute strength—having mastered the Chaos Ancestral Dragon Ice-Fire Golden Body and possessing the Ice and Fire Annihilation Dragon Astral Force Aura—removing this bit of snake venom would only take the time it takes to brew a cup of tea!
"Bear with it. My Dragon Astral Force entering your body is far more potent than when your poison flared up at midnight."
As soon as Su Chen finished speaking, eight [Ice-Fire Dark-Gold Dragon Emperor Spear], each three meters long, suddenly burst out from his back!
Unlike before, he did not directly massage with his palms. Instead, he precisely controlled the four crimson dragon Emperor Spear on his right side, which were flowing with traces of the Solar True Fire. He shrank the spear tips to the thickness of a millimeter, turning them into four scorching hot needles like branding irons. They pierced into the four main acupoints on Dugu Bo's back as fast as lightning Zhiyang, Mingmen, Jinsuo, and Weilu!
With a whoosh, the moment the tips of the four External Soul Bone pierced the acupoints, the pure Pure Yang Dragon Fire, extremely strong Zhiyang, mixed with the domineering medicinal properties of the Infernal Delicate Apricot, exploded along Dugu Bo's spinal cord like four roaring fire dragons!
Even though Dugu Bo was a level 91 Titled Douluo had endured the pain of being pierced by thousands of needles for twenty years, his muscles were still convulsing violently at this moment.
He felt as if his entire spine had been shoved into a furnace at 10,000 degrees Celsius and forged!
Those ancient deadly poisons that had lingered deep in his marrow for twenty years, and which even his own titled Soul Power couldn't dispel in the slightest, were like mice seeing a cat under the pressure of this terrifying Solar True Fire and the Primordial Dragon Might, hissing and frantically fleeing upwards!
"Guard your mind and let the poison seep into your bones!"
Su Chen shouted, raised his left palm, and pressed it heavily on the Baihui Acupoint on Dugu Bo's head, three inches behind it.
Within his palm, the Lunar Profound Ice Dragon Astral Force, infused with the essence of the Octagonal Mysterious Ice Grass, was unleashed with ferocity, instantly forming an indestructible, extremely cold Ice Seal barrier around Dugu Bo's brain and internal organs, completely cutting off the retreat route of the deadly poison's counterattack on his internal organs and brain marrow!
Below, Pure Yang True Fire burns the marrow and drives away evil; above, Taiyin Mystic Ice locks the heart meridian!
Dugu Bo's skin instantly turned half crimson like blood and half deathly pale like frost.
Under the pressure of Su Chen's miraculous Ice and Fire Dual Extreme Dragon Astral Force, the dark green toxic grime that had accumulated in his limbs, bones and marrow for decades had nowhere to hide. It turned into thick, black-green poisonous streams, which surged upwards along the Du Meridian and were finally forced into the Medusa Head Soul Bone on his forehead!
Buzz--!!
Medusa Skull, having absorbed over 90% of the body's original poison, trembled violently. The originally bluish-green bone quickly turned a deep, dark green, and the petrifying and poisonous pressure emanating from it increased more than twice as much as before!
As the old poison was forced into the Soul Bone, Su Chen moved his right palm down and placed it on Dugu Bo's back heart, transferring a wisp of pure and gentle Chaos Ancestral Dragon Qi and Blood, which cleansed and nourished his withered Meridians that had been corroded by the poison for many years.
It took no more than fifteen minutes.
"Receive!"
Su Chen withdrew his hands, and the four crimson Emperor Spear on his back flashed out of his acupoints and retracted into his body.
Clatter
Dugu Bo was completely soaked in sweat and the black, foul-smelling sweat he had expelled. He collapsed onto the rocks like a rag doll, panting heavily.
However, after only three breaths, Dugu Bo's previously somewhat cloudy emerald green snake eyes suddenly shone with a terrifying light!
He suddenly sat up, looked down at his hands in disbelief, and then desperately channeled his Soul Power through his Eight Extraordinary Meridians for a full cycle.
Exhilarating! Exhilarating like never before!
Twenty years! A full twenty years, he has been enduring the cold, stinging pain of toxins corroding his Meridians every moment, even his breath smells of decay.
But now, his bone marrow and Meridians felt as light as if they had been unshackled, and he was free from all pain. Moreover, because the accumulated toxins in his body had been completely cleared, the bottleneck in his Soul Power that had been stuck at the peak of level 91 for five years suddenly loosened at this moment, and he was already faintly touching the threshold of level 92!
What surprised and delighted him even more was that the Medusa Soul Bone on his forehead, after absorbing the deadly poison from his entire body, was not only undamaged, but instead became the largest source of deadly poison outside his body. In the future, when fighting enemies, he could release the Serpent Emperor Strange Poison with a thought that was several times more terrifying than before, and his own internal organs would never suffer any backlash again!
"It's healed... completely healed! This 20-year-old, deep-rooted disease has truly been completely eradicated!!" Dugu Bo trembled with excitement, tears streaming down his face.
He didn't bother wiping away the black, foul-smelling sweat from his body; he immediately turned over and knelt down in front of Su Chen, clasped his hands together above his head, and kowtowed to the Blue Stone beneath Su Chen's feet.
"Young friend Su Chen's life-saving grace is heavier than Mount Tai! From this day forward, the Dugu Family is willing to serve you as our master. If you disobey even in the slightest, may I be struck by lightning and my Martial Soul shattered to death!!"
