Dugu Bo

As Yue Guan listened to the string of names coming from Chu Bai's mouth, his eyes widened, making him look rather comical. He strode forward and asked in disbelief, "That place really grows so many Immortal Herbs?!"

"And it even has the king of flowers, the Lovesick Heartbreak Red?!"

Chu Bai nodded. "But Dugu Bo has occupied that place now."

"Yet he doesn't know what those Immortal Herbs are for, so they're simply going to waste. Since that's the case, why not put them to use? Otherwise, someone might take them, improve their talent, and then destroy Spirit Hall."

Gui Mei and Yue Guan's mouths twitched.

The situation you described simply doesn't exist, okay?

In their understanding, there was probably no force on this continent capable of destroying Spirit Hall.

"Enough. Let's keep going deeper."

"Wait."

Yue Guan stopped Gui Mei and Chu Bai. He looked around, then suddenly said in a grave voice, "Something's wrong. There's poison in the area!"

"It seems we've almost arrived. Elders, with your abilities, can you break through this layer of poisonous mist?" Chu Bai asked.

"This poisonous mist is only effective against those below the Titled Douluo level. Its effects on Titled Douluos are negligible, so naturally, neither of us fears it." Gui Mei nodded. Immediately afterward, Soul Power surged from their bodies and formed a barrier that protected Chu Bai.

Meanwhile, deep within the poisonous mist, beside the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well, an old man stood there and let out a soft sigh.

"Although I, Dugu Bo, know that this is a place of Heavenly Treasures, it is a pity that I do not know how to use them."

"Still, even if I cannot use them, this is not a place just anyone can enter."

Dugu Bo turned around helplessly, intending to leave, but he suddenly sensed that someone had intruded into his Poison Array. Moreover, the intruder seemed rather powerful. This immediately put Dugu Bo on guard.

"Someone actually dared to barge in here? Courting death!"

His figure vanished in an instant.

The next moment, Dugu Bo landed ahead. With a grave expression, he looked toward the forest in front of him and waved his arm. A blast of emerald-green Soul Power shot into the woods.

Boom!

A violent explosion rang out, followed by a familiar voice reaching Dugu Bo's ears.

"Old Poison, you've hogged such a good place all to yourself. Isn't that a little too unfriendly?"

Yue Guan's figure slowly emerged.

"Ju Hua Guan? It's actually you. I never expected you to discover this place." Dugu Bo's expression changed. He had not expected the other party to be a Titled Douluo. As one of the weaker Titled Douluos, his combat strength was still somewhat inferior to Chrysanthemum Douluo's.

"Heh, there are no walls in this world that do not leak. Old Poison, these Heavenly Treasures do not belong to you alone!" Yue Guan said with a smile.

"Hmph, Ju Hua Guan, so what if you discovered this place? With only you, you still cannot take it from me."

Dugu Bo spoke in a deep voice, though there was a shadowy look in his eyes. He knew that since Chrysanthemum Douluo had found this place, the others from Spirit Hall would likely find it as well. Perhaps he could fight Chrysanthemum Douluo to a standstill, but if other powerful experts arrived, he would be unable to handle them.

By then, the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well would still become Spirit Hall's possession!

"Heh, Old Poison, who said he was alone?"

At that moment, a ghostly shadow appeared, and Ghost Douluo emerged beside Chrysanthemum Douluo.

Dugu Bo's expression changed as well.

"I should have thought of it. You two always appear together." Dugu Bo said coldly, "In that case, I'll give this place to you!"

Dugu Bo was no fool. Since this place had already been discovered, and by Spirit Hall no less—

He could only count himself unlucky.

"Old Poison, you can't leave." Ghost Douluo flashed forward and blocked Dugu Bo's path. This act clearly enraged Dugu Bo.

"Could it be that Spirit Hall truly intends to leave no survivors? Though I am no match for the two of you, if I truly fight with my life on the line, this old man can certainly drag one of you down to hell with me."

Soul Power began to surge from Dugu Bo's body. He appeared ready to fight to the death.

"My Holy Son has something to say to you, Old Poison," Yue Guan said.

"Holy Son?" Dugu Bo frowned.

Chu Bai walked out and said to Dugu Bo, "Today, I finally get to meet the renowned Poison Douluo. Since you do not know the use of the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well, why not let Spirit Hall have it?"

"Hmph, Spirit Hall is nothing but a group of insatiably greedy people. Since you want this place, this old man will give it to you." Naturally, Dugu Bo did not show Chu Bai any kindness.

Chu Bai smiled. "This trip was not solely for the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well."

"Then what else do you want?" Dugu Bo sneered coldly. "Spirit Hall never does anything good!"

"This matter is actually easy to resolve. We are inviting you, Poison Douluo, to join Spirit Hall." Chu Bai smiled.

Dugu Bo froze.

Gui Mei and Yue Guan, standing beside him, froze as well.

They had not expected that Chu Bai had come this time to recruit Dugu Bo.

"Dream on. This old man will never join your Spirit Hall. I have always been alone and grown used to freedom. If this is why you came, then please leave!"

Dugu Bo waved his hand dismissively.

"There is no need to be so decisive. Since I have invited you to join Spirit Hall, I naturally have the corresponding sincerity to offer. Poison Douluo, why not hear me out first? Perhaps you will be interested?"

Chu Bai stepped forward until he stood before Dugu Bo.

At this distance, if Dugu Bo wanted to kill him, Yue Guan and Gui Mei probably would not be able to stop him in time.

"Sincerity? Hmph."

Dugu Bo stood with his back to Chu Bai and turned his head slightly. "You are Spirit Hall's current Holy Son. At such a young age, you already possess the strength of a Soul Ancestor. You can indeed be called a genius."

At the same time, he was somewhat astonished. His own granddaughter's talent was already considered quite good, yet Chu Bai seemed about the same age as her and had already become a Soul Ancestor.

"My strength is merely the result of good fortune."

Chu Bai released his Pangu Axe. When his terrifying soul ring configuration of three purple rings and one black ring appeared before Dugu Bo, even this well-traveled Titled Douluo could not help exclaiming, "How is this possible..."

"With your strength, you should not be able to withstand the energy contained within those soul rings!"

Chu Bai smiled faintly. "You have seen it yourself. Just consider it a miracle unique to me."

"This invitation comes from my personal wishes, and this is my sincerity." A round pill slowly appeared in Chu Bai's palm, giving off a faint fragrance.
