Son of Blue Silver

The phantom of the Jade Phosphorous Serpent Emperor had just dissipated, and the Golden Sacred Dragon was still circling low in the sky, its mouth wide open, golden dragon breath churning deep in its throat.

Dugu Bo stood with his hands behind his back in the moonlight, his ninth Soul Ring quietly lighting up.

Both sides are ready, and a fierce battle is about to break out.

Just then, a beam of green light shot into the sky from the direction of the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well.

The beam of light, as thick as the trunk of a centuries-old tree, shot straight into the sky, illuminating the entire night sky with a vibrant green glow.

The light was filled with a life force so dense it was almost tangible, and even the surrounding vegetation was growing at a visible speed—withered branches sprouted new leaves, wildflowers bloomed, and vines climbed up tree trunks. The woodland, which had been destroyed by the aftermath of the battle, was being reborn at an incredible pace.

The group stopped what they were doing at the same time.

The Golden Sacred Dragon abruptly stopped its breath, and with a flap of its wings, it hovered in mid-air. Dugu Bo's glowing Soul Ring instantly dimmed, and he turned to look at the source of the beam of light.

Flender's glasses reflected a green light. "Such a strong life force, and the Soul Power feels somewhat familiar."

The Grandmaster's gaze remained fixed on the beam of light. "There are also ice and fire attributes. These two extreme attributes coexist, balancing each other while also fusing together—"

He paused, "This wasn't formed naturally. Perhaps it is..."

Dugu Bo's face darkened. That was the herb garden, his lifeline. He hadn't dared to go all out when he was fighting the Golden Iron Triangle, for fear of damaging the herb garden.

"What are those two little brats up to?"

No sooner had he finished speaking than a green shadow flashed, and he had abandoned the fight, rushing towards the direction of the pillar of light.

Liu Erlong frowned, watching Dugu Bo's departing figure. "Is Dugu Bo not going to fight anymore?"

The Grandmaster shook his head. "Follow them and see."

The three, along with the Golden Sacred Dragon, followed Dugu Bo toward the core area of Sunset Forest.

They hadn't gone far when Dugu Bo, who was ahead, suddenly stopped.

Under the moonlight, a strange little figure floated in mid-air.

The little figure was woven entirely from Blue Silver Grass and was about the size of a five- or six-year-old child.

Its body is Entanglement up of countless fine blades of grass, some reddish, some ice blue, and most emerald green—green being the majority, gleaming with a warm luster under the moonlight.

Three colors of grass grow intertwined within it, red and blue Entanglement, eventually merging into the green main stem, like three rivers flowing into the same lake.

Dugu Bo stared at the little figure. "Was that strange phenomenon just now caused by this thing?"

He raised his hand, and a dark green Soul Power condensed at his fingertips, as if he wanted to test the waters.

"Senior Poison."

A voice came from behind the little man; it was Wang Xingyu and Tang San, who walked out side by side.

Wang Xingyu showed no signs of poisoning; his complexion was rosy, and his steps were steady.

Tang San walked beside him, the Eight Spider Lances on his back retracted at some point, but on his exposed back, several dark purple lines were much deeper than before, spreading along the spine to the shoulder blades, like a spider web branded on the skin.

Tang San glanced at Dugu Bo, his voice not loud, but very clear.

"Senior Dugu Bo, this is our Martial Soul Fusion Skill — Son of Blue Silver. Also, I've come up with a way to cure your granddaughter's poison."

Dugu Bo was stunned for a moment. He was fearless in his life, but his only weakness was Dugu Yan.

"What did you say? Say it again!"

On the other side, Yu Xiaogang and his two companions had already exited the Golden Sacred Dragon state. Luo Sanpao had transformed back into the somewhat chubby purple creature, now with a pair of small dragon horns, and was panting at Yu Xiaogang's feet.

Flender was the first to react, his eyes widening behind his glasses. "You two... you're not dead, and you've even awakened Martial Soul Fusion Skill!"

The Grandmaster strode forward, sizing up Wang Xingyu and Tang San, then glanced at the little figure beside them. "What... Dugu Bo said you two are dead?"

Liu Erlong followed, reaching out to check the two boys' arms and backs. "You two rascals, it's good you're alright, it's good you're alright!"

Wang Xingyu chuckled and smoothed things over. "Senior Dugu Bo was just curious about the methods used to cure Little San; he was just joking."

He strangled himself twice.

He turned his head to look at Dugu Bo, "Isn't that right, Senior Dugu Bo?"

In the original novel, Dugu Bo, the Poison Douluo, had a strange temper and spoke harshly, but he later helped Tang San many times, making him one of the Titled Douluo who helped the group the most.

The two even Little Monster" and "Old Monster." Am I Little Monster now?

Dugu Bo looked at him, remained silent for a moment, and then laughed with his head tilted back.

"Hahaha, that's right!" He clapped his hands, his gaze sweeping over Yu Xiaogang and the other two, finally settling on Luo Sanpao, who had already shrunk back to his original size. "I was just testing you guys—to see if you division commanders have the ability to be division commanders."

He paused, then nodded meaningfully. "You three's fusion technique is impressive. Hahaha."

The three of them faced each other, unsure how to begin.

"However—" Dugu Bo's smile faded, and he stood with his hands behind his back, his tone regaining its uncompromising edge, "These two will have to stay here and learn from me for a while longer."

Yu Xiaogang frowned and took a step forward. "Senior Dugu— "

"Don't worry." Dugu Bo waved his hand, not letting him finish speaking, "This old man wouldn't stoop to the level of two juniors."

Tang San glanced at Wang Xingyu, Wang Xingyu nodded and explained, "It's nothing, just discussing some toxicology with Senior Dugu. Besides, the cultivation conditions here are indeed much faster than outside."

He was telling the truth. In a treasure land like the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well, adapting to the elemental properties does indeed accelerate the cultivation process.

Yu Xiaogang glanced at Tang San, then at Wang Xingyu, remained silent for a few seconds, and finally nodded. "Alright. Be careful."

Flender sighed beside him, wanting to say something, but Liu Erlong tugged at his sleeve, making him swallow his words.

Yu Xiaogang nodded and said, "Then I won't disturb you any longer."

Dugu Bo stood there with his hands behind his back, and said indifferently, "I'm sorry I won't see you off."

The three turned and walked out of Sunset Forest. Luo Sanpao wagged his purple tail, as if saying goodbye to the two.

Once the three figures disappeared into the depths of the forest, Dugu Bo turned around, his emerald green snake eyes sweeping back and forth over Wang Xingyu and Tang San, before suddenly laughing.

"You two are truly monsters." He spoke with a hint of admiration, his gaze falling on the tiny figure woven from Blue Silver Grass beside him. "Not only did you cure the Jade Phosphorous Serpent Poison, but you also cultivated Martial Soul Fusion Skill in the process. This one is called the Son of Blue Silver— "

He reached out, his fingertips circling the tiny figure without touching a blade of grass. "It seems immune to ice and fire, impervious to all poisons. I can feel the power within it; it's very solid."
