Douluo: Emerald Poison King

Chapter 64: Crossing the River with Dugu Bo

It was only natural for Dugu Bo to make a breakthrough.

Dugu Bo had good talent. When he first awakened, he was born with full soul power and practiced very quickly. Later, because of the poison, his practice progress was slowed down.

Only after finding the Yin-Yang Eye of Ice and Fire to suppress the toxins in his body could he continue to practice reluctantly, and eventually became a Titled Douluo for unknown reasons.

If it weren't for the interference of this innate poison, Dugu Bo would have become a Titled Douluo much earlier and his strength would have been slightly enhanced.

No matter what, he would not be stuck at Level 91 for decades, a very embarrassing level for a Titled Douluo.

The original body's innate poison is good for Dugu Bo, but it is unlikely that the original body's innate poison is good for Dugu Bo.

These poisons melted Dugu Bo's life force and soul force, which was a very important part of Dugu Bo. If he completely lost this part, he would die. But the problem was that even if he didn't lose this part, these uncontrollable poisons would make Dugu Bo fall towards death.

Under normal circumstances, Dugu Bo is not only completely unable to use this power in his body, but he even has to distract himself to actively suppress this power. It is considered good enough if he can use 70% to 80% of his 100% soul power to fight.

For Dugu Bo, it is a completely negative effect.

Just like from the perspective of economics, negative assets are also assets, but in fact, the vast majority of negative assets are pure negative assets, and only the negative assets of a few people can be considered real assets.

Dugu Bo's poison is a serious bad property. If you throw it away, you will go bankrupt. If you keep it in your hands, you will go bankrupt slowly. Theoretical value is very high, but in reality, it can't be realized at all.

Chen Ming purified some of the poison in Dugu Bo's body and converted it into soul power and vitality. In fact, he converted this part of the bad assets in his hands into normal property that Dugu Bo could use.

With one increase and one decrease, the effect is quite significant.

The vitality and soul power hidden in the poison for many years were transformed by Chen Ming and injected into Dugu Bo's body, allowing him to recover quickly from his originally poor condition and even reach a higher level.

Then, because part of the poison was purified by Chen Ming, the remaining poison had to enter a relatively quiet state under the suppression of Dugu Bo, and it was completely unable to cause any impact on Dugu Bo for a while.

After losing the burden on his shoulders, Dugu Bo didn't even need to take the initiative to move forward. He was directly pushed out of the hurdle that had troubled him for many years and naturally became a Titled Douluo of level 92.

Moreover, it doesn't feel like he just broke through level 92. If converted into an experience bar, Dugu Bo's experience bar from level 93 to level is now at least % full.

If he practices normally, without considering the benefits of the Yin-Yang Eyes of Ice and Fire and the negative benefits of the poison, Dugu Bo will be able to break through to level 93 in about ten years, and it will not be a problem for him to become a level 94 Titled Douluo in this lifetime.

As for level 95...

Level 95 Super Douluo not only requires talent in soul power, but also tests the ability to comprehend abstract ideas. Dugu Bo's talent in soul power is definitely up to par, and he is not stupid. But he lacks talent in comprehension...

Feeling that his body had relaxed as if he were ten years older, Dugu Bo quickly turned his head to see if Chen Ming was in trouble.

He had already made up his mind that if his granddaughter really looked down on Chen Ming, or Chen Ming looked down on his granddaughter, then he might as well not accept any disciples and just become sworn brothers with him.

Compared with Chen Ming, Dugu Bo felt like he had a pig's head on his neck.

He has been busy for decades trying to detoxify himself, but in the end he didn't know the true nature of his poison. This behavior is simply unworthy of the name of Poison Douluo. Dugu Bo thought to himself that after being called Poison Douluo for so many years, he had completely forgotten the fact that the title he received when he was crowned in the Spirit Hall was not Poison but Green Phosphorus.

He looked up and down at Chen Ming who was in deep meditation, and felt that Chen Ming's soul power and mental power were in a very full state. His martial soul was more powerful than before, and it was obvious that he had taken advantage of the opportunity just now to break through to the level of Scorpion King. This made Dugu Bo breathe a sigh of relief.

He was really afraid that he might accidentally injure Chen Ming or leave him with any problems.

If anything happened to Chen Ming, the benefactor of himself and his granddaughter, Dugu Bo really felt that he would have to die to atone for his sin.

Chen Ming entered into deep meditation, feeling the changes in his body.

Originally Chen Ming's meridians could be said to be very strong, but after this flushing and repair, the originally strong meridians not only became wider, but also became more resilient and full of vitality, which gave him more protection when facing unexpected situations in the future.

The toxins that invaded the body were washed away by soul power and vitality, and had lost their aggressiveness. They were also completely absorbed by the external soul bones. Not only did the physical fitness improve, but the toxin intensity and resistance in the body were also better.

As for soul power...

After Chen Ming absorbed the second soul ring and the external soul bone, his soul power level reached level 23, close to level 24. After two months of training, he broke through to level 24 with the help of Dugu Yan. After helping Dugu Bo, Chen Ming's soul power also increased significantly, directly rising to level 26, nearly level 27.

According to this state, Chen Ming felt that he would be able to truly reach level 27 after practicing for about half a month.

However, compared with these appearances, Chen Ming cares more about the fundamental changes.

Not only did his martial soul break through to become the Scorpion King, but his external soul bone grew to ten thousand years old and gained new abilities. During this process, Chen Ming also gained a part of Dugu Bo's own poison, which he himself could not control.

The people of the Dugu family used themselves as carriers and the green phosphorus snake as the Gu King to practice Gu. I don't know how many people died, and I don't know how much time it took, but it finally blossomed and bore fruit here with Dugu Bo, and he barely practiced and became the Gu King.

Chen Ming swallowed up this part of the characteristics and integrated it into his own martial soul. From then on, Chen Ming could also practice poison with his martial soul in his body by absorbing the essence of the poisonous soul beast.

And because it was directly obtained from the results that Dugu Bo had already done, Dugu Bo's Green Phosphorus Snake essence had been completely integrated into Chen Ming's Emerald Scorpion, and they were perfectly integrated into one. Now Chen Ming's Emerald Scorpion King Martial Soul also possessed some of the characteristics of the Green Phosphorus Snake King Martial Soul.

These characteristics are not only reflected in the soul power, but Chen Ming's body will also receive a certain degree of bonus. After the current martial soul is attached, it will obtain the basic attributes equivalent to 100% of the Green Phosphorus Scorpion King martial soul and 25% of the Green Phosphorus Snake King martial soul.

The Emerald Scorpion's original shortcomings in agility and endurance were largely made up for by the Green Phosphorus Snake King's characteristics, and even its toxicity had more characteristics.

Chen Ming's Jade Phosphorus Scorpion King martial spirit combined with the origin of the Jade Phosphorus Snake King martial spirit had undergone a change that had never happened before. And this change was undoubtedly beneficial.

This time, Dugu Bo benefited a lot from the treatment, and Chen Ming also gained a lot. The benefits brought by this treatment were no less than eating a magical herb for Chen Ming.

After all, the immortal grass in the Yin-Yang Eye of Ice and Fire is not the one from a hundred thousand year old spirit beast like Douluo II, so it must be lacking in medicinal power. Although Dugu Bo is a little weaker, he is also a genuine Titled Douluo, and his essence is definitely not inferior to that of a hundred thousand year old spirit beast.

Moreover, Dugu Bo was a poison expert, and had practiced poison for decades. The Jade Phosphorus Snake King in his body also had characteristics similar to that of the Gu King. Chen Ming could gain a lot of experience points just by taking a few sips.

The most important thing is that this is a long-term business. Chen Ming can also obtain continuous benefits from detoxifying Dugu Bo in the future. The value in the long run is much higher than that of an ordinary fairy grass.
