Douluo Continent: I am the true master

Chapter 45 Heading to Wuhun City (Newbie asking for votes!!! TvT)

Over the next month, Ye Wen began treating the Dugu father and son.

In the original novel, Tang San's method of introducing poison into the soul bone was practically like planting a time bomb on Dugu Bo's body.

Moreover, instead of having the time to force the toxins in the body into the soul bone, it would be better to expel them directly. No matter how you look at it, that plot is a poorly made product, yet everyone actually believed that someone used poison.

All I can say is that Douluo Dalu's IQ is truly terrifying due to his love-struck mind.

It's strange that the Douluo world has both Eastern and Western dragons in terms of dragon species.

Snakes, carp, lizards, salamanders, and dinosaurs are all classified as soul beasts with dragon bloodlines.

Therefore, the Jade Scale Serpent is a top-tier soul beast with dragon blood, but its talent leans towards poison.

However, when the Dugu family was hunting for spirit rings, they did not intend to hunt dragon-type spirit beasts. Instead, they all focused on poisonous snakes, which resulted in the terrifying toxins that plagued the Dugu family.

If we were to solve this problem from the perspective of a Soul Master, the answer would undoubtedly be to hunt down some powerful, poison-resistant dragon-type Soul Beasts when acquiring Soul Rings. This would allow the Soul Master to improve its own poison resistance. Although this would weaken the poison, it would give the Jade Scale Serpent a tendency to transform into a dragon.

After listening to Ye Wen's guidance, the Dugu family father and son also abandoned the idea of ​​poison control and began to develop a strong offensive style.

Although it wasted two of Dugu Xin's spirit rings, the effect of two hundred-year spirit rings was only so-so, and there was still hope of saving him if he pulled back from the brink.

As for Dugu Bo, he has already cultivated to the Soul Saint realm and his Martial Soul has evolved into the Azure Serpent King, the King of Venomous Snakes. There is no turning back now. Unless he can evolve the Azure Serpent King into a Dragon Bloodline Soul Beast again when he breaks through to the Title Douluo realm, thereby strengthening his physical body, he will probably continue to suffer from this torment of being afflicted by the deadly poison.

However, the evolution of a martial soul is inherently difficult, and it's hard to say whether Dugu Bo's martial soul will be able to evolve into the Azure Dragon Emperor in the future.

However, Dugu Bo accepted this outcome quite calmly; rather, he had accepted the pain that had accompanied him since childhood.

Seeing this, Ye Wen felt somewhat sorry for the honest man and took out a microscope to show him.

"Senior Dugu, this is a microscope. With your expertise in poisons, you might be able to decipher the toxins in your body."

As long as the two spirit rings you acquire in the future are not poisonous, they shouldn't cause any further damage to your body.

Upon seeing the microscope, Dugu Bo was somewhat intrigued. Although there were magical things like soul tools in Douluo Continent, they were remnants of ancient times. The current technological level of Douluo was simply appalling.

When Dugu Bo saw the toxins under the microscope, he was overjoyed. In the field of medicine making, most of the time it was like the blind men and the elephant. They could only guess based on some pharmacology. If they stumbled upon something by chance, all would be well, but if they made a mistake, it could be fatal.

In order to prevent Dugu Xin from dying young, Dugu Bo not only used poison to terrify people, but also possessed extraordinary medical skills.

"I am deeply grateful, Dean. Please feel free to ask if you need anything in the future."

As expected of an honest man, he treats people with sincerity. Having shed his icy expression, Dugu Bo now resembles a friendly uncle next door.

As for why he didn't use the method of analyzing toxins to crack the code, Ye Wen could only say...

Do you really think mixing toxins is child's play? That stuff isn't something you can just crack casually. Even experts from the past might not be able to figure out the molecular formulas, let alone Ye Wen himself. What's more, this is a martial spirit version of snake venom; who knows what's going on?

However, there is one thing that is truly amazing about traditional Chinese medicine. Despite having no scientific basis, it can indeed cure diseases. However, this kind of traditional Chinese medicine was slandered as pseudoscience in the past, but foreigners were quite eager to buy it.

Later, Ye Wen thought that since it was for detoxification, the toad venom he had made might come in handy, so he generously gave half of it to Dugu Bo.

He also kindly explained the usage of this traditional Chinese medicine to Dugu Bo.

When Dugu Bo learned that the toad venom came from an 8-year-old War Drum Toad King, his eyes lit up. If he hadn't owed Ye Wen a favor, he probably would have even tried to snatch the last bit of toad venom Ye Wen had.

In the days that followed, Ye Wen began to teach Dugu Xin about the Six Styles and the practice of climbing trees and treading water.

Although the Dugu family is a prestigious family with a history of over a hundred years, the sudden appearance of eight self-created soul skills really dazzled Dugu Xin. With so many self-created soul skills, why bother with soul ring skills?

Meanwhile, Dugu Bo, who was quietly studying, was also shocked by Dugu Xin's cultivation. He never expected that Ye Wen would take out his precious self-created soul skill and let his son learn it before they had even developed a relationship. Dugu Bo's gratitude towards Ye Wen grew even stronger.

Ye Wen was never stingy when it came to cultivating his subordinates. And to be honest, apart from Life Return and Tree Climbing and Water Walking, the Six Styles were not particularly profound self-created soul skills.

Therefore, Ye Wen taught Dugu Bo everything he knew, after all, he was his honorary dean and his future protector.

The idea that you can't do anything to your enemies if your poison is suppressed is just too weak.

Dugu Bo truly lived up to his reputation as the most talented Soul Master in the Dugu family for hundreds of years; his talent far surpassed that of his son, Dugu Xin. Of the six techniques, only the Life Return technique was extremely difficult. He mastered the others—tree climbing and water walking—within two months.

Furthermore, based on Ye Wen's advice, he modified the Finger Gun skill by injecting poison into it, thus creating Dugu's unique self-created soul skill, Poison Finger Gun.

Compared to simply poisoning the enemy, this tactic is undoubtedly much more vicious, but also much safer.

In addition, although snake-type martial souls are not compatible with the human body, they greatly enhance a person's flexibility and give them a great talent in explosive power.

After all, while the speed a snake can generate when it bites may not be as fast as a bullet, it is still beyond the reaction time of an ordinary person. In my previous life, scientists calculated that a snake can attack four times in the blink of an eye, which shows how fast it is.

Based on this direction of strengthening, Dugu Xin's offensive system has already taken some initial shape.

During this time, the Dugu family also got to know the people in the academy. The Huo siblings and their fifth sibling quickly accepted this junior brother who was a little older than them.

Meanwhile, Ye Wen began preparing to travel to Wuhun City to participate in the grand feast held every five years across the entire continent.

The Continental Elite Soul Master Competition.

As for Ah Yin, well, since she hasn't broken through to Soul Emperor, she should just stay home and guard the house.

After all, the Angel Clan still calls the shots in Wuhun City. Going to the stronghold of the gods is a bit foolish.
