Douluo Continent: I, the world's greatest immortal master, have taken Ning Rongrong as my disci

Chapter 61 Snake Fist and Calamity Poison Technique
"It's you...you're Su Ran, the coach of the Peach Blossom Team!!"

"Grandpa, you've brought me here and waited for so long, only to want me to become his apprentice?"

Dugu Yan's pair of green eyes trembled slightly, her hands clasped around her small, soft breasts, a hint of arrogance appearing on her face:

“I don’t want to. Before, you proposed to take Lingling as your disciple at the Soto City Great Soul Arena, but you were indifferent to my Jade Phosphorous Serpent Martial Soul. This shows that you don’t want to be my teacher, or that you don’t have the ability to teach me.”

"You little rascal, you really hold a grudge."

When Su Ran's figure landed on the vegetation of the Ice and Fire Yin-Yang Well, peach blossoms fell one after another, and all the flowers and plants in the Ice and Fire Yin-Yang Well seemed to sense something and began to sway.

His martial spirit, Divine Peach Blossom, is inherently the god of plants, the absolute supreme leader of flowers, grasses, and trees.

Su Ran smiled faintly at Dugu Yan's slight arrogance, not taking it to heart. The granddaughter of Dugu Bo, that old poison master, was naturally not so obedient.

"Yan'er, be good. This is an opportunity for you to become an apprentice, which your grandfather worked very hard to secure. Don't miss it."

Dugu Bo glanced nervously at Su Ran. He was also having a bit of a headache with his precious granddaughter.

"Grandpa~"

Dugu Yan pursed her lips, stepped forward and said to Su Ran, "Alright, I can become your disciple, but what do you plan to teach me? Or rather, how do you plan to cure the poison in my grandfather and me?"

"If you really have the ability to cure my grandfather's poison, I wouldn't mind becoming your apprentice or even serving as your maid. But if you don't have that ability, why should my grandfather give you the medicinal garden he's cultivated for so many years for free?"

Dugu Yan and her grandfather had a very good relationship; otherwise, Dugu Bo wouldn't have traveled a long way to find Su Ran just because of her words. Similarly, she was very protective of Dugu Bo's precious possessions.

"It's just a matter of resolving the backlash from your Jade Phosphorous Serpent venom. What's so difficult about that?"

"Dugu Bo, I really like this place. Since you're so sincere, I'll reciprocate with my sincerity and help you and your granddaughter resolve the issue of the backlash from the Jade Phosphorus Snake venom."

As for whether your granddaughter wants to become my disciple, I dislike forcing people to become my disciples. If she doesn't want to, then that's fine.

Su Ran said calmly, "The Yin-Yang Eye of Ice and Fire is a rare treasure on the continent. The flowers and plants growing here are of top quality, and even near the Yin-Yang Eye, there are rare immortal flowers and plants."

Originally, Dugu Bo sought Tang San's help to find an antidote, but the old poisoner, unaware of the value of the poison, was ultimately outmaneuvered by Tang San, who took away all the precious herbs on the ground, leaving not a single one for Dugu Bo and Dugu Yan.

However, during the battle at the Soto City Grand Arena, the terrifying poison-devouring ability displayed by Zhu Zhuqing and Meng Yiran's Earthly Nether Hand overshadowed Tang San's prowess. As a result, Dugu Yan mentioned the people from Peach Blossom Academy to Dugu Bo. Ultimately, Dugu Bo was intimidated by Su Ran's strength and chose to take a gamble, betting this treasure land along with his granddaughter on Su Ran.

Su Ran naturally had no reason to refuse. Although most of the girls in the academy had absorbed the immortal flowers and herbs, there was still a special freshman who had not yet used immortal herbs to transform his body and conceal his aura. Dugu Bo's immortal herbs had come at just the right time.

Secondly, even if these immortal items are taken back, they can be used to make soups for the girls to nourish their bodies and to give them medicinal baths to refine their bodies. Even if Su Ran absorbs them herself, even if the effect is not as good, it would still be good if she could improve her level by a fraction of a level.

As for the question of how to detoxify the venom of the blue-phosphorus snake.

Even Tang San could come up with two solutions, let alone Su Ran?
"I have three ways to solve the problem of the blue-phosphorus snake venom in your bodies."

"First, we will use the natural treasures here as a medicinal guide to dissolve the Azure Phosphorus Serpent venom in your bodies. However, the greatest characteristic of your Azure Phosphorus Serpent Martial Soul is that it is inherently poisonous. If you lose this characteristic, your path as a Soul Master will come to an end. If you choose this path, I will leave the Eight-Cornered Mystic Ice Grass and the Fiery Apricot Blossom in this garden for you to neutralize the poison."

"The second method is to find a carrier for the Azure Phosphorus Serpent Venom, absorb the Soul Bone, and guide the venom into the bone. The Soul Bone has a much stronger carrying capacity than the human body's original bones. Although this method cannot cure the Azure Phosphorus Serpent Venom, it can effectively alleviate about 50% to 60% of the venom's power, so that you will not be killed by the backlash of the Azure Phosphorus Serpent Venom, and your strength will not be weakened."

After Su Ran finished explaining the first two points, she paused for a moment and looked at Dugu Bo and Dugu Yan.

These two methods were the only two solutions Tang San could think of.

Upon hearing this, Dugu Bo's eyes lit up: "Drawing the poison into the bone, that's a good idea. How come I didn't think of that before?"

"What about the third one? What is the third method?" Dugu Yan couldn't help but ask.

"While drawing poison into the bone is a good method, the capacity of a soul master to absorb thousand-year or ten-thousand-year-old soul bones is ultimately limited. This is especially true for a titled Douluo like Poison Douluo. One or two soul bones simply cannot fully contain all of his Azure Phosphorous Serpent Venom. Once the limit is exceeded, the toxin will still spread to other places."

"Moreover, the soul bone is, after all, part of a soul master's body. Introducing toxins into the soul bone may save one's life, but the part of the soul bone that bears most of the toxins will be corroded day after day. Once it takes effect, the physical pain will be no less."

"I won't go into the third method. You have to become my disciple for me to teach you personally. If you try to practice it alone, even if your grandfather did, he would most likely die from the poison."

Su Ran said calmly. He wasn't just making things up. Dugu Bo was a great traitor who had a bunch of rare and precious treasures but couldn't figure out how to use them. Even if Su Ran generously passed on his poison skills to him, Dugu Bo, with his intelligence, would still refine himself to death.

Even with a hellish training method like the Earthly Nether Hand, if Su Ran hadn't been watching Zhu Zhuqing and Meng Yiran train, it would have been easy to ruin their hands if they hadn't been careful.

"You're just spouting nonsense! Tell me what the third method is. If it's better than the first two, I'd gladly kneel and kowtow to you as my master without a single complaint!"

Dugu Yan felt that the method of drawing poison into the soul bone was the best solution. "You said it yourself."

Su Ran calmly said, "The third method is much more difficult than the first two, and requires special techniques to achieve. Of course, once successful, there will be no pain, and you can generate poison gas without restraint. That is to draw poison into the ring and train your body with poison techniques."

"Drawing poison into the ring, using poison techniques to train the body?!"

Upon hearing these eight words, Dugu Bo was so surprised that his voice trembled.

He could understand using soul bones as a carrier of toxins, but the phrase "drawing poison into the ring and using poison to train the body" was something he could hardly comprehend. Could this really be done?
"That's right. Soul rings are different from soul bones. Not only are they not a part of a soul master's body and do not cause pain, but soul masters also need to continuously absorb soul rings as they grow, which can accommodate a large amount of toxins."

As for poison techniques… you've all seen the Earthly Nether Hand; it's considered a beginner-level poison technique. It can absorb toxins and elemental power to a certain extent. The absorbed toxins not only won't harm the user, but will actually be used to their advantage.”

"Alright, I've told you all three methods. As for which one you choose, that's up to you."

Su Ran didn't waste any words. His right hand was now emitting black energy, transforming into a pair of dark hands that had been baptized in hell. In the blink of an eye, he plucked several immortal-grade flowers and herbs from the Yin-Yang Well, without being affected by the Yin-Yang Well at all.

Dugu Bo's heart skipped a beat. Although it was agreed that the entire herb garden would be given to Su Ran, he still felt a pang of heartache seeing Su Ran picking these herbs like this.

"Yan'er, are you really unwilling to become a disciple?"

"Grandpa has a premonition that if you can learn from him and master this method of drawing poison into the ring and cultivating the body with poison, you will embark on a path that is even more powerful than Grandpa's."

"Think it over carefully. If you encounter his disciples again in the Soul Arena in the future, are you confident of winning?"

Seeing that Su Ran had finished taking the flowers and herbs and was about to leave after they made their choices, Dugu Bo asked Dugu Yan one last time.

Dugu Bo's reminder brought back the terrifying Soul Master duel in the Soto City Soul Arena to Dugu Yan's mind.

The support-type Soul Master of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School punched Ma Hongjun, a power-attack type Soul Master, so hard that his liver and intestines were torn apart.

If Su Ran didn't teach him, who else could have?

"I'm willing to admit defeat."

She bit her lip and knelt down in front of Su Ran's retreating figure:
"Student Dugu Yan, true to his word, kneels three times and kowtows nine times, willing to become Teacher Su's disciple, please accept me as your apprentice and teach me to practice poison skills."

Upon hearing this, Su Ran looked back through the vast white mist, her ethereal eyes hidden behind her mask.

Just one glance sent a jolt through Dugu Yan’s heart, as if the person she was worshipping was a celestial being, otherworldly and peerless. It was astonishing to know what kind of face lay beneath that mask.
Once the snake's fluids are released, it becomes difficult for the snake to urinate.

The Peach Blossom Fairy spoke calmly, which brought the exquisite woman back to her senses:

"If you are willing to abide by the words inscribed on the back of this Peach Blossom Order, from now on you will be my student."

A peach-white jade token landed in front of Dugu Yan.

Dugu Yan picked it up and murmured:

"In this world, I, Dugu Yan, having studied under Taoyuan, must not indiscriminately kill the innocent, poison the common people, or betray my fellow disciples, otherwise..."
