Douluo Continent: Dragon's Journey Across the World

Chapter 167 Chrysanthemum Douluo and Ghost Douluo

Chrysanthemum Douluo finally sighed, "Ping An, I've been fighting with this Dugu Bo for half my life, and I still can't bring myself to lay a hand on him."

Yang Ping'an thought about it carefully: "Master, if Dugu Bo is willing to join the Spirit Hall and keep the secret of the Ice and Fire Yin-Yang Well, we can spare his life and even find a way to completely solve the problem of the Spirit Poison. If he is stubborn, then we can't blame him."

Chrysanthemum Douluo finally nodded and quickly began to study Yang Ping'an's plan.

To truly kill a Title Douluo and prevent him from escaping, it would take at least two or three Title Douluos, or even more. Otherwise, given the desperate nature of a Title Douluo, there are still ways for him to escape.

Chrysanthemum Douluo thought carefully for a moment before speaking: "To ensure that we can kill Dugu Bo, or rather, completely suppress Dugu Bo, it would be best to send four Title Douluos, including myself and Old Ghost, and invite two more people, and it would be better if they could counter Dugu Bo."

Upon hearing this, Yang Ping'an took out two more jade boxes from his person without saying a word. These two jade boxes did not contain immortal herbs, but rather ten-thousand-year-old spiritual medicines, including a ten-thousand-year-old ginseng king and a ten-thousand-year-old snow lotus. These were highly nourishing substances, which were also very effective for titled Douluo. At the very least, they could greatly improve their blood and qi, and could even help them break through their current bottlenecks.

Chrysanthemum Douluo happily put away the two ten-thousand-year-old spiritual herbs. Clearly, he recognized the value of these herbs, which was enough to warrant asking a Title Douluo to help them privately.

After Chrysanthemum Douluo and Ghost Douluo whispered for a while, they basically finalized their plan to target Dugu Bo, and even decided on the manpower.

Yang Ping'an continued, "Master, if people find out about this trip to find Dugu Bo, just say that you specially asked for help to resolve the past conflicts with Dugu Bo. Of course, it would be best to do it in Sunset Forest, where there are few people and no one will interfere."

Chrysanthemum Douluo nodded as well. After all, Dugu Bo was a guest elder of the Heaven Dou Empire, and Sunset Forest was only a little over a hundred kilometers away from Heaven Dou City. If Sword Douluo and the others really found out, it might cause unnecessary trouble.

However, Chrysanthemum Douluo was still a little reluctant: "Ping An, I still want to keep this Qiluo Tulip Immortal. It may play an unexpected role in the future."

Yang Ping'an thought about it carefully and realized that this Qiluo Tulip Immortal Item might indeed be used to deal with the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect in the future. At least it could be considered a plan. In the end, he made up his mind and took out another jade box.

This time, the jade box contains a bamboo shoot-shaped object, which is also a top-grade immortal herb, the Jade Divine Bamboo, and is also a very suitable immortal herb for Chrysanthemum Douluo.

The Black Jade Divine Bamboo can enhance the strength of a martial soul, and although the Qirong Tongtian Chrysanthemum is already a top-tier martial soul, consuming it will definitely greatly enhance Chrysanthemum Douluo's strength.

Chrysanthemum Douluo happily accepted the Ink Jade Divine Bamboo, but after thinking for a moment, he returned the Qiluo Tulip Immortal Item to Yang Ping'an.

In fact, Yang Ping'an also had a Vajra Arhat Fruit, which had a very similar effect to the Qirong Tongtian Chrysanthemum, and was even better in increasing the metal attribute of the martial soul, but Yang Ping'an still wanted to keep it for himself.

According to Chrysanthemum Douluo's plan, Chrysanthemum Douluo and Ghost Douluo will go into seclusion to absorb the immortal herbs as soon as possible, and organize a team to set off five days later.

After Chrysanthemum Douluo and Ghost Douluo left, the two of them actually arrived at Chrysanthemum Douluo's house at the same time.

Ghost Douluo asked, somewhat puzzled, "Old Chrysanthemum, are you really sure you want to do this? Although Dugu Bo's strength is relatively weak, it will still be quite difficult to truly kill him."

Chrysanthemum Douluo shook his head: "Old ghost, don't underestimate these few immortal herbs. If those genius disciples were to absorb them, they would definitely become Title Douluos, and it might even allow their martial souls to evolve."

Looking at the eight-petaled immortal orchid in his hand, Ghost Douluo couldn't help but sigh: "Actually, I understand you. We've been struggling at level ninety-five for a long time. This immortal herb might allow us to break through to the next level in the future."

Chrysanthemum Douluo couldn't help but chuckle: "Old ghost, you underestimate these immortal herbs. I can guarantee that if you and I consume these herbs, we can definitely break through to level 96, and in the future, we might even reach level 98."

Ghost Douluo swallowed hard: "How is this possible? You know, reaching level 98 is not easy. Basically, you need a 100,000-year soul ring and soul bone."

Chrysanthemum Douluo shook his head: "Although reaching level 98 does require a 100,000-year soul ring and soul bone, the effects of immortal herbs are, in a sense, greater than those of soul bones."

Ghost Douluo was shocked, but after a moment of silence, he continued, "Is this Ice and Fire Yin-Yang Well really that important? I see that you and your disciple are very eager for it, even willing to attack Dugu Bo."

Chrysanthemum Douluo couldn't help but laugh: "Old ghost, you're too ignorant. The Ice and Fire Yin-Yang Well is a treasure trove in the Soul Master world. Any plant can grow ten times faster inside. In terms of value alone, it can even surpass one of the three upper sects, and can even cultivate multiple Title Douluos."

Ghost Douluo couldn't help but sigh: "No wonder Yang Ping'an wants to seize the Ice and Fire Yin-Yang Well for himself. But are you really sure you shouldn't report this to His Holiness the Pope?"

Chrysanthemum Douluo remained silent for a while before speaking: "Let's get this done first. If His Holiness the Pope really wants to punish us, that kid Yang Ping'an should be able to handle it."

After some arrangements, Chrysanthemum Douluo went to see two elders who were in seclusion. They were initially a little reluctant to be disturbed by Chrysanthemum Douluo, but when he explained his purpose and offered a ten-thousand-year-old elixir as payment, they all agreed.

After all, for the Title Douluos of the Spirit Hall, Dugu Bo was merely the lowest among Title Douluos, and dealing with him was not difficult.

Five days passed quickly. After cultivating for five consecutive days, Yang Ping'an finally received news of Chrysanthemum Douluo and prepared to leave Wuhun City.

After absorbing the immortal herb, Chrysanthemum Douluo and Ghost Douluo's soul power indeed increased by one level, and they are now level 96 Title Douluo. In particular, they feel that the bottlenecks in their previous cultivation seem to have loosened a lot, and it should not be too difficult for them to cultivate to level 97 in the future.

After a moment of joy, the two immediately began preparing for the next step of their plan.

That day, Yang Ping'an swaggered away from Wuhun City, ignoring whether anyone was watching him secretly, and headed straight for Tiandou City.

Pope Bibi Dong received the message immediately, but she found it a bit strange: "What exactly is Yang Ping'an doing? He actually dared to swagger out of Wuhun City. You should know that as soon as he leaves Wuhun City, those people in the shadows will make a move against him."

The cardinal, who was gathering information, quickly spoke up: "Your Holiness, as far as I know, many forces have sent Soul Saint-level experts to keep an eye on him, but Elder Ju and Elder Gui seem to have also secretly followed him out of the city."

Bibi Dong nodded: "Elder Ju and Elder Gui took leave a few days ago. I didn't expect him to care so much about this little disciple. He even wanted to personally escort him, and the two of them would do it together."

The cardinal seemed to have thought of something: "Your Holiness, as far as I know, there were four elders who went out of the city this time, and they seemed to have gone out together. In addition, they all went out in plain clothes."

Bibi Dong couldn't help but chuckle: "This is quite interesting. Elder Ju seems to value this little disciple quite a bit. If he just wanted him to leave, he wouldn't have needed to make such a fuss."

The cardinal tentatively asked, "Your Holiness, should we arrange for someone to follow him, especially those we have assigned to monitor Yang Ping'an? Should we make other arrangements?"

Bibi Dong waved her hand: "Forget it, let them make a fuss. Elder Ju and Elder Gui are quite loyal. They probably want to help Yang Ping'an with some personal matters, and they know their limits."

"Besides, this time four Title Douluos have been dispatched, and your men can't keep an eye on them."
