Ch. 81Flame Lotus Subdues Dugu Bo
Qian Nuo and his companions entered a hidden herb garden and confronted Dugu Bo, who recognized their connection to Spirit Hall and attacked them. Qian Nuo easily shattered Dugu Bo’s Jade Phosphor Serpent Emperor and overwhelmed his ninth Soul Skill with a flame lotus, leaving the battle’s outcome obscured by an enormous explosion.
- Qian Nuo led the group through poisonous fog into a hidden canyon, where Dugu Bo appeared and claimed they had trespassed in his herb garden.
- Zhao Wen recognized Dugu Bo as Poison Douluo, and Dugu Bo realized the group had impersonated Crown Prince Xue Qinghe and suspected that the real prince had been harmed.
- Qian Nuo told Dugu Bo they were from Spirit Hall, prompting him to summon his Jade Phosphor Serpent Emperor and attack the group.
- Qian Nuo used the God Ring’s black-gold wheel to blast apart Dugu Bo’s Martial Soul, then sent a rain of flames toward him.
- Dugu Bo used his Jade Phosphor Serpent Emperor Avatar and Medusa’s Gaze, but the flames reformed into a lotus and broke through his petrifying beam.
- The flame lotus struck near Dugu Bo and caused a huge explosion, while Qian Nuo’s Curtain concealed the battle from the outside.
