Douluo's Soul Power increases by two levels every year

Chapter 229 Dugu Bo has awakened!

Unbeknownst to Han Feng, as he and Dai Mubai left, the Star Luo Emperor in his palace had a profound gaze. Watching them depart, he pondered for a moment before saying indifferently, "Go and summon Weiss to me!"

"Yes, sir!"

A muffled sound rang out, and before the Star Luo Emperor could even glance at it, a dark figure rushed out from behind the dragon bed.

Of course, Han Feng and Dai Mubai were unaware of all this.

After returning to the palace, Dai Mubai and Han Feng were quite relaxed. Although the news that the two princes would start their destined battle a week later had spread throughout Xingluo City, according to Dai Mubai himself, Davis posed no threat to him at all!

In the following days, Dai Mubai either sparred with Han Feng or took Han Feng and Ning Rongrong to experience the charm of Xingluo City, completely disregarding Davis.

Indeed, Davis's performance was so disappointing that even the usually meticulous Zhu Zhuqing felt contempt for him!

Meanwhile, on the other side of the continent, Tang San, who had received the letter from the Grandmaster, had also arrived in Heaven Dou City!

At this moment, Tang San was walking alone in Heaven Dou City. Tang Hao was not with him, presumably guarding him from the shadows. Tang San himself was wearing a mask, covering half of his face. Tang San and Tang Hao were now in the eye of the storm, and many people on the continent even suspected that the father and son had a 100,000-year-old soul beast that had been rebuilt!

After all, many people on the mainland only know that on the day of the Soul Master Competition finals, Tang Hao took away Tang San and a girl who was rebuilding her soul beast. As for their relationship, people don't care!

Looking at the familiar Heaven Dou City, Tang San suddenly felt as if he had been transported to another world.

Half a year ago, he would walk on the streets of Tiandou City with Xiao Wu and Han Feng by his side. Now Xiao Wu has returned to the Star Dou Great Forest, and Han Feng and the others have also left Tiandou City.

"Rongrong and Fatty are probably the only ones still in Heaven Dou City, right?" Tang San smiled, suppressing his excitement, and headed towards Shrek Academy.

Tang San, of course, would not take the usual path. He used his Ghost Shadow Steps to sneak up to the door of the Grandmaster's office without anyone noticing.

Without hesitation, Tang San knocked on the door and went inside.

Although Tang San was wearing a mask, Grandmaster recognized him at first glance!

boom!

The book slipped from the master's hand and fell to the ground, but he seemed oblivious. His stiff face flushed with excitement as he walked step by step to Tang San. Looking at Tang San's noticeably taller figure, he said with great satisfaction, "Good! Good, good, good!"

"Teacher!" Tang San also took off his mask and called out in a trembling voice.

The master helped Tang San, who was about to kneel, to his feet, suppressing the trembling in his heart. Sensing the surging soul power within Tang San, he couldn't help but ask, "Little San, what level are you now?"

"Level 48..." Tang San scratched his head and said sheepishly, seemingly not very satisfied with his cultivation progress.

For the past six months, he has been training with Tang Hao, either focusing on body tempering or practicing the Chaotic Cloak Hammer Technique. His energy has inevitably been somewhat diverted, so he hasn't been able to make the same rapid progress as he did at the academy—he only just managed to break through to level 48 in the last two days!

However, the master did not show the slightest displeasure. He knew that Tang San was cultivating with Tang Hao. As the youngest Title Douluo on the continent, the master believed that Tang Hao's actions must have a deeper meaning, so he naturally would not question Tang San's cultivation progress.

"By the way! Teacher, what about the old poisoner?" Tang San quickly remembered the important matter and asked solemnly.

Admittedly, Dugu Bo had some unpleasantness with Shrek Academy in the past, and even now Han Feng and Dai Mubai are still somewhat dissatisfied with Dugu Bo. However, during the six months at the Ice and Fire Yin-Yang Well, Tang San's resentment towards Dugu Bo had long since dissipated, and his relationship with Dugu Bo was quite good; it wouldn't be an exaggeration to call them close friends despite their age difference!

Otherwise, even if it were a letter from the master, Tang San would not have so decisively abandoned his cultivation and rushed to Heaven Dou City!

Otherwise, if any other Title Douluo were to fall, Tang San wouldn't care if they died!

Grandmaster, aware of the relationship between Tang San and Dugu Bo, also grew serious. He shook his head slightly and said in a deep voice, "This is not good! According to Sword Douluo, Dugu Bo's soul power has been scattered and is running rampant within his body. Even Sword Douluo is powerless to do anything about it!"

"Tsk!" Tang San clicked his tongue lightly upon hearing this, his brows furrowing deeply.

Tang San cured Dugu Bo's congenital defects in his martial soul, and his familiarity with the circulation of soul power within Dugu Bo's body was no less than that of Dugu Bo himself!

It was this familiarity that made Tang San realize just how dangerous the rampage of soul power within Dugu Bo's body was!

No wonder Sword Douluo said he was powerless—if he wasn't careful, he and Dugu Bo might be poisoned to death together!

Knowing Tang San so well, Grandmaster knew exactly what Tang San was thinking. He sighed and advised, "Little San, if you're not confident, then forget it! Anyway, according to Sword Douluo, Dugu Bo will wake up on his own in a year or two!"

"No!" Tang San shook his head, calmly muttering, "Even if the old poison master can awaken on his own, by then, most of the poison-attribute soul power within him will be lost, he will never regain his titled realm, and may even become a cripple. For the old poison master, this would be even more painful than killing him!"

Putting everything else aside, given Dugu Bo's age, coupled with his numerous hidden injuries and the losses he suffered from snake venom in the past, without the support of his pure soul power, even if Dugu Bo were to wake up, he probably wouldn't live for more than two years!

Upon hearing this, the master understood the implications and could only say, "In that case, wait a moment. I'll have Flander go to the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School and invite Bone Douluo here. With Bone Douluo's teleportation, it will be much safer!"

Tang San nodded and said, "As you say, Master!"

Flander was an agility-based Soul Master, and Gu Rong possessed a teleportation black hole. In less than the time it takes to drink a cup of tea, Gu Rong had already arrived in front of Tang San.

Upon seeing Tang San, Gu Rong didn't waste any time and said directly, "There's no time to lose, come with me!"

With that, Gu Rong grabbed Tang San and brought him to the secret chamber of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School.

At this moment, Ning Fengzhi and Sword Douluo were already waiting here—Tang San had arrived in a hurry, and they hadn't had time to inform the Crown Prince yet.

Moreover, Ning Fengzhi could also see that his disciple actually disliked Tang San. Tang San's background in the Clear Sky Sect made it difficult for the Crown Prince, who was born into the royal family, to take action against him. That's why he put a lot of effort into winning over Han Feng instead of Tang San. If Tang San failed this time, it would inevitably make the Crown Prince despise Tang San. Therefore, Ning Fengzhi thought that he would inform the Crown Prince after Tang San succeeded.

"Uncle Ning! Senior Gu! Senior Chen!" Tang San greeted the three of them one by one.

"No need for formalities, let's take a look at Poison Douluo first!" Ning Fengzhi smiled slightly and made way for Tang San.

Tang San didn't stand on ceremony and walked straight to Dugu Bo. When he saw Dugu Bo's ashen face, his pupils shrank. He dared not be careless in the slightest. His hands transformed into jade, and he drew out the Eight Spider Spears from behind his back. His right hand pressed on Dugu Bo's brow, and his left hand protected Dugu Bo's heart meridian. The eight spider spears landed on Dugu Bo's eight major acupoints!

Seeing Tang San's stance, Ning Fengzhi and the other two were also pleasantly surprised!

Could it really work?!

Regardless of what Ning Fengzhi and the other two were thinking, Tang San was already drenched in sweat, his face a mixture of emotions. After a long while, he finally took two steps back, gasped for breath, and exclaimed in horror, "There are actually people on the continent with such profound poison skills?!"

"What do you mean by that?" Ning Fengzhi quickly helped Tang San up and asked in a deep voice.

Tang San explained, "The soul power within the old poisonous creature wasn't dispersed; rather, someone injected a highly poisonous substance into it, using poison to fight poison, which caused the soul power within the creature to surge violently. What puzzles me is that the person who attacked the old poisonous creature seems to have a natural advantage over it, able to devour its poison-attribute soul power. With these two factors combined, without a deep understanding of toxicology, it would be impossible to detect!"

"Restraint!? Ingesting poison!?" Upon hearing these two key words, Ning Fengzhi frowned, a thoughtful expression on his face.

"Good heavens! He's spent his whole life dabbling in poison, and it's bad enough that his children died because of it, but now he's been poisoned again!?" Gu Rong thought to himself, a strange feeling creeping into his heart, after hearing Tang San's words.

Upon hearing this, Sword Douluo asked Tang San in a deep voice, "I shouldn't trouble two masters with one matter. Since you can see the crux of Dugu Bo's illness, can you cure him?"

Tang San nodded and said, "I will do my best!"

Hearing this, Ning Fengzhi was also delighted. He told Tang San to rest for a while before treating Dugu Bo for the poison.

After an incense stick's time, Tang San's soul power recovered. He used the Mysterious Jade Hand again to straighten Dugu Bo, carefully pried open Dugu Bo's mouth, and used his soul power to disperse the foul-smelling poisonous gas gushing out. Then, with a pained expression, he took out a small immortal herb and stuffed it into Dugu Bo's mouth: "Taken from you, used for you. You old poisoner, you'd better remember this: you'll have to pay!"

After saying that, Tang San sat down cross-legged behind Dugu Bo, drew out the Eight Spider Spears again, placed his hands on Dugu Bo's back, and inserted the eight spider spears into the other eight major acupoints, silently using Xuan Tian True Qi to guide the power of the immortal herbs and the deadly poison that had invaded Dugu Bo's body.

"drink!"

"Pfft! Cough cough!"

The moment the medicinal herbs collided with the deadly poison, Tang San shouted loudly, and Dugu Bo coughed violently after spitting out a mouthful of foul-smelling, black blood.

The poisonous blood landed and even eroded the ground, creating a hideous and terrifying hole!

"I'll go inform the Crown Prince!" Upon seeing this, Ning Fengzhi and the other two were overjoyed, and Gu Rong even opened the Black Hole, preparing to go find the Crown Prince.

"No!" But at this moment, Dugu Bo, who had just woken up and whose body was still not completely free of the poison, disregarded his near-unconscious weakness and hurriedly stopped Gu Rong!
