The Martial Soul Skeleton, in Douluo Continent's Bone-Changing Susanoo

Chapter 71 Dugu Bo Arrives

About seven seconds passed.

The black ghost fire burning on Yu Tianheng's body had not yet been extinguished. The area that was cut by the Iron Bone Blade was first subjected to the squeezing force of the huge palm bone, and then burned by the black ghost fire. This pain was definitely not something an ordinary person could endure.

Suddenly, light white petals fell from the sky.

When some petals fell on Yu Tianheng, all his wounds miraculously healed, and his nearly exhausted strength returned to its best condition.

The black ghost fire finally went out, and Yu Tianheng seemed to have been reborn. Apart from being held high in the air by the right hand of the skeleton, his body was completely unharmed.

Xia Liang retracted his soul ring and martial soul into his body, the giant skeletal right arm disappeared, and Yu Tianheng was freed and landed safely.

The white petals that just floated into Yu Tianheng's body and healed all his injuries were Ye Lingling's healing-type soul skill.

The fact that off-field reinforcements were used means that the outcome of this battle has already been decided.

"Tianheng, let's stop here." Ye Lingling suddenly spoke. Her voice was more pleasant than Dugu Yan's, gentle and delicate, and gave people a sense of etherealness.

Yu Tianheng seemed to respect Ye Lingling's opinion. After adjusting his mindset, he smiled politely at Xia Liang and said, "Master Xia, I lost this battle. Congratulations, you've obtained a very good third soul skill. I bet I'll dream about that terrifying skull tonight."

Xia Liang smiled politely, then looked at Ye Lingling, who was standing with Dugu Yan.

At this moment, Ye Lingling was holding the Nine Heart Begonia Martial Soul, which shimmered with a dazzling light.

Just as described in the original work, the healing effect of this Nine Heart Begonia Martial Soul is truly domineering.

In just a short while, Yu Tianheng, who was half-dead, recovered to his best condition in terms of both injury and physical strength.

Dugu Yan seemed to notice something was off about Xia Liang's gaze, so she quickly stepped in front of Ye Lingling and questioned her impatiently, "Xia Liang, why are you staring at Lingling?"

"It's beautiful." Xia Liang then realized the ambiguity in his words and corrected himself, "I meant that the Nine Heart Begonia Martial Soul is beautiful."

Ye Lingling shook her head slightly, put the Nine Heart Begonia Martial Soul she was holding back into her body, and did not participate in the conversation.

"Lingling, don't believe anything Master Xia said just now, okay? Sometimes he can be quite unserious!"

Dugu Yan whispered in Ye Lingling's ear, "I heard Teacher Qin Ming mention before that last time, Master Xia demanded 30,000 gold soul coins in front of the three education committee members and Prince Xuexing as compensation for his privacy and emotional distress. Think about it, who in this world is so blatantly greedy? If he dares to be greedy for money today, he'll dare to be greedy for women tomorrow. You'd better stay away from him in the future."

"I also heard that this Master Xia's original name was Xia Buliang (meaning 'unruly Xia'). Just hearing that name makes you think he's not a good person. You absolutely mustn't befriend him!"

After listening to what Dugu Yan said, Ye Lingling looked at Xia Liang with some surprise. She had run into him a few times at the Tiandou Library before and thought that this Master Xia was different from those noble students and was a diligent and studious person. She didn't expect him to be so bad in private.

Xia Liang was unaware that Dugu Yan was talking badly about him to others. When he noticed Ye Lingling looking over, he smiled politely and then turned his gaze back to Yu Tianheng.

The strength of the martial soul is now there.

To accumulate more experience fighting against Soul Masters, one inevitably has to expose one's Soul Skills and Abilities in front of others.

Without fighting, one cannot further improve their strength.

Xia Liang felt he was in a dilemma. Perhaps the only way to resolve this conflict was to rely on a powerful force or to obtain the protection of a top expert.

Yu Tianheng and Xia Liang suddenly exchanged a glance, and the two smiled politely as before.

After such a humiliating defeat, Yu Tianheng no longer intended to have any designs on Dugu Yan. He knew that Master Xia would never let go of the opportunity to seduce a titled Douluo's granddaughter.

Yu Tianheng's eyes lit up as his gaze fell on Ye Lingling. The third soul skill of the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Soul Master, Thunderous Fury, is a berserk state that continuously consumes stamina.

If the entire Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan could possess the area-of-effect healing and support of the Nine Heart Begonia Martial Soul, then all Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Soul Masters could maintain this berserk state for an extended period, significantly enhancing their strength and lightning power.

If he couldn't win over Dugu Yan himself, then winning over Ye Lingling back to the sect would at least be an explanation.

The next day, afternoon.

On the official road leading to Tiandou City.

Xia Liang had just returned from Sunset Forest. After his battle with Yu Tianheng yesterday, he realized that he still had a lot of room for improvement in his actual combat skills.

In order to familiarize himself with his third soul skill and to gain more practical experience, he decided to go to the outer area of ​​Sunset Forest to find some unfamiliar soul beasts to spar with.

Now, as a level 36, three-ring Battle Soul Master, with the blessing of the Undead Domain, I have activated the first form of Bone-Transformed Susanoo, which is enough to kill a Cave Demon Spider that has just entered the ten-thousand-year cultivation stage.

It seems that in the future, I can hunt spirit beasts on my own with my fourth spirit ring, without having to depend on others anymore.

Walking on the official road, Xia Liang began to review all the actual battles he had experienced in the past few days. He felt that simply dealing with soul beasts was not enough, and he must take the opportunity to fight soul masters more often.

There's no need to worry about your soul skills and abilities being exposed, because if you follow the plan to obtain the opportunities from the original work, your growth rate will be much faster than other soul masters.

While other Soul Masters are studying their previous abilities and Soul Skills, they have already acquired new abilities and Soul Skills.

For example, if you reveal your teleportation ability in front of others yesterday, you can develop a long-distance spatial teleportation method using bone dragon bones as markers the next day, thus creating an information gap for the other party.

Therefore, there is no need to deliberately hide anything.

The only concern is that revealing too much ability might attract the favor or fear of some powerful families.

If you have a powerful backer, you don't need to worry about this problem.

When Xia Liang thought of powerful backers, the images of Xue Qinghe and Dugu Bo quickly came to mind.

Currently, with Dugu Yan as a safeguard, Dugu Bo should have the opportunity to befriend her.

Xue Qinghe also has a chance. I mentioned before that I would go to the palace another day to cook some dishes that she had never seen before for her to try.

As the crown prince of the Heaven Dou Empire and the granddaughter of the Spirit Hall's adjudication elder, if he could get on Xue Qinghe's good side, he wouldn't have to worry about being harassed by both the Heaven Dou Empire and the Spirit Hall in the future.

At this moment, an inexplicable pressure appeared on the official road.

Xia Liang suddenly stopped and looked ahead in surprise. What came into his view was an old man with dark green hair, his hands behind his back.

The fresh air around us was instantly polluted by a fishy smell, making people dizzy.

Xia Liang possessed a constitution that made him immune to both ice and fire, and impervious to all poisons, but he still pretended to be dizzy and hurriedly took out a bright green anti-poison pill from his silver bracelet and swallowed it.

He knew that the fishy smell polluting the surrounding air was the venom of the Jade Phosphorus Snake, and that the dark green-haired old man standing before him was Dugu Bo.

The anti-poison pill I just took was a gift from Dugu Yan, and it can resist the poison of martial souls below the seventh ring of a Poison Soul Master.

Taking the anti-poison pill was naturally to prevent Dugu Bo from discovering that he had a constitution that was immune to all poisons.

Xia Liang had a question he couldn't figure out.

He didn't know whether Dugu Bo had intentionally waited for him on this official road or if they had just happened to meet.

When Dugu Bo returns, he will surely find that several immortal herbs near the Ice and Fire Yin-Yang Eye have been picked by someone, right?

What is meant to be will be; what is meant to be will be.

Xia Liang put aside all his concerns and cupped his hands in greeting to Dugu Bo, "Greetings, Senior Poison."

Dugu Bo did not accept this courtesy and said indifferently, "Boy, take out the Ruyi Hundred Treasure Pouch."
