Douluo Continent: Disciple Tang San, righteous yet evil

Chapter 108 Ghost Douluo's Perspective Changes, Severing Bibi Dong's Arms
"Two hundred thousand years? No wonder its aura is so terrifying. In a one-on-one fight, I'm afraid I wouldn't be its match."

Upon hearing Chrysanthemum Douluo's explanation, Sword Douluo's expression gradually became serious.

If it weren't for the fusion of Chrysanthemum Douluo and Ghost Douluo's spirit skills, his ninth spirit skill would have had a hard time hitting the target completely, at most causing some minor injuries.

After all, even though the Seven Kill Sword pierced through the Crimson King's body, it did not kill him immediately.

If Lin Mu hadn't blown up its three heads, it might have survived.

At this moment, Ning Fengzhi's gaze fell on the corpse of the Crimson King. A soul beast that is more than 100,000 years old will inevitably drop a soul bone, and this soul bone is more than 200,000 years old.

Ning Fengzhi's eyes flickered, his mind filled with countless thoughts. He thought to himself, "If Uncle Jian absorbs this soul bone, he can reach at least level 97, and it's not impossible that he could even reach level 98."

This is an irresistible temptation for anyone.

Once Sword Douluo reaches level 98, the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School will naturally surpass the Clear Sky School and become the number one school in the world.

As everyone knows, Tang Chen has been missing for many years. Even the Haotian Sect believes that their ancestor is dead, otherwise they would not have chosen to close the mountain.

In reality, Tang Chen did not die, but it was no different from death. He was affected by the Rakshasa God and became mentally unstable, serving as the King of Slaughter in the City of Slaughter.

Even if he eventually regains his senses, his days will be numbered.

Dugu Bo, who had been guarding Lin Mu's side, noticed Ning Fengzhi's gaze and immediately threatened, "Sect Master Ning, there are some things that you can't covet. You'd better think it through."

In fact, Dugu Bo was also well aware that if something happened to Lin Mu, he might be able to regain his freedom.

However, it could also directly ignite a spark in the heart, causing immediate death.

Even for his granddaughter's sake, he couldn't take the risk. Besides, he had gradually accepted reality; the stronger Lin Mu became, the more honored he would be.

Upon hearing Dugu Bo's threat, Ning Fengzhi immediately abandoned his idea.

Now, Dugu Bo is definitely on Lin Mu's side, and Chrysanthemum Douluo and Ghost Douluo were both recruited by Lin Mu, so they will definitely be more inclined to side with Lin Mu.

Even if Uncle Jian's soul power is higher than theirs, he cannot possibly defeat three Title Douluos. Moreover, Chrysanthemum Douluo and Ghost Douluo also have a Martial Soul Fusion Skill, which allows them to control even 200,000-year-old soul beasts.

"Senior Dugu, you are overthinking it. I'm just worried that something might go wrong when he absorbs the spirit ring."

Ning Fengzhi forced an explanation.

Dugu Bo merely sneered at this, his gaze remaining fixed on Ning Fengzhi as if he were not really looking at him.

On the other side, Ghost Douluo transmitted his voice to Chrysanthemum Douluo: "Chrysanthemum Pass, you helped Lin Mu this time, aren't you worried about His Holiness the Pope's punishment?"

"Punishment? What punishment can compare to my precious medicinal herbs?"

Chrysanthemum Douluo first complained, then continued to transmit his voice: "Old Ghost, what do you think of our status in Bibi Dong's heart?"

Upon hearing Chrysanthemum Douluo address His Holiness the Pope by his given name, Ghost Douluo's eyes were filled with disbelief.

In the past, Chrysanthemum Douluo would always refer to His Holiness the Pope and would never dare to be disrespectful to Bibi Dong. Unexpectedly, such a big change has occurred in just a few months.

Soon, Ghost Douluo recalled that Bibi Dong had indeed treated the two of them poorly, even being reluctant to reward them with soul bones.

That's not all; recently, his treatment has dropped significantly, even falling far short of Yu Xiaogang's.

After a moment of silence, Ghost Douluo continued to transmit his voice: "Besides His Holiness the Pope, who else can we serve? The Hall of Worship will not accept us."

"Old Ghost, with our combined spirit fusion skill, as long as we don't betray the Spirit Hall, we'll naturally have a place there. Why should we risk our lives for Bibi Dong?"

After Lin Mu's severe beating, Chrysanthemum Douluo finally came to his senses.

Since pledging allegiance to Bibi Dong won't get us a soul bone, we might as well take advantage of the situation. The treatment is the same anyway, so why risk our lives? After hearing Chrysanthemum Douluo's words, Ghost Douluo nodded inwardly, but a lingering concern remained. He transmitted his voice, saying, "What you said makes some sense, but what if Bibi Dong attacks us?"

"Hehe, with our combined martial soul fusion technique, Bibi Dong definitely won't break off relations."

After a pause, Chrysanthemum Douluo looked at Lin Mu, who was absorbing the spirit ring, and continued to transmit his voice, "Even if it really comes to that, we can still ask Lin Mu for help."

Upon hearing this, Ghost Douluo suddenly realized that once Lin Mu finished absorbing the spirit rings, he might actually be able to compete with Bibi Dong.

Even if we take a step back and assume that Lin Mu cultivates to the level of a Title Douluo, his strength will definitely be no less than that of Bibi Dong.

But soon, Ghost Douluo thought of another problem: "After all, Lin Mu is on the side of the Heaven Dou Empire. What should we do if he becomes an enemy of the Spirit Hall in the future?"

"This is none of our business. As long as Lin Mu doesn't destroy the Spirit Hall, we have no need to be its enemy."

Chrysanthemum Douluo has completely grasped the essence of taking advantage of troubled times. So what if he is an elder of the Spirit Hall? He still receives gold soul coins, and I haven't seen him receive an extra soul bone every month.

For a titled Douluo, money is nothing more than an external thing, and it's not worth risking one's life for it.

Seeing that his old buddy had made up his mind, Ghost Douluo didn't try to persuade him further. To him, Chrysanthemum Douluo was far more important than Bibi Dong.

As time passed, Lin Mu finally finished absorbing the Crimson King's soul ring.

"Cool!!"

Lin Mu suddenly opened his eyes, and a powerful aura burst forth, even forcing Dugu Bo, who was closest to him, to take a few steps back.

Immediately afterwards, Lin Mu slowly stood up, and eight spirit rings swirled up. Two of the hundred-thousand-year spirit rings were particularly dazzling, especially the last one, whose aura alone made the others tremble with fear.

"My soul power is stuck at level 83, more than halfway. Once I absorb the soul bone, I should be able to break through to level 85, or even level 86."

Lin Mu's eyes were practically overflowing with joy; nothing was more delightful than a sudden surge in cultivation.

In addition to the increase in soul power, he also obtained two powerful soul skills. Furthermore, absorbing soul bones will also grant him two more skills. With these four skills, he can definitely suppress Sword Douluo.

However, Lin Mu did not intend to absorb the soul bone immediately. Instead, he put the Crimson King's right leg bone into his storage bracelet, planning to absorb it when he returned.

If it weren't for the fact that spirit rings cannot be preserved for a long time, he would even have liked to take them back to the Heaven Dou Royal Academy to absorb them again.

"Lord Lin Mu, now that you have absorbed the spirit ring, our duty is complete. We bid you farewell. We hope you will not forget our agreement."

Chrysanthemum Douluo spoke first.

Upon hearing this, Lin Mu smiled faintly and made a promise: "Since you have helped me, you are my friends, so I will naturally not break my promise. Besides, I may need your help in the future."

Upon hearing this, Chrysanthemum Douluo and Ghost Douluo were both taken aback. Could this guy be planning to ask them to hunt for spirit rings?

Indeed, Lin Mu had very high requirements for the ninth spirit ring, and the Polar Stillness Domain was a strange mechanism, so hunting for the ninth spirit ring would definitely come in handy.

In Lin Mu's eyes, as long as someone is human, there is a possibility of them becoming teammates, except for Bibi Dong and Yu Xiaogang.

"By the way, I'm not Bibi Dong, I won't let you make a wasted trip."

As he spoke, Lin Mu took out two bottles of pills and tossed them to Chrysanthemum Douluo and Ghost Douluo respectively, explaining, "These pills are a bonus. Although they won't be very effective for Title Douluos, they can save you several months of cultivation."

Looking at the pills in their hands, Chrysanthemum Douluo and Ghost Douluo were deeply moved.

This is the gap!

　Regarding the ninth spirit ring, there are currently three options: the Deep Sea Demon Whale King, the Snow Empress, and the Bear King. Readers, please offer your opinions.
