Douluo V: Starting with daily check-ins, I'm trying to trick Xiao Wu into becoming my wife.

Faced with Poison Douluo's question, Ao Yin remained calm, a slight smile playing on his lips, and uttered a startling statement.

"This item is called the Mother-Child Soul-Chasing Life-Stealing Gallbladder."

"The entire process involves refining and tempering with the world's rarest poisons, with thousands of poison sources combined into one before it is finally made into its final form."

"As a master of poisons, you only need to release your soul power and carefully perceive the specific types of poisons it contains, and you will naturally know everything."

Upon hearing this, Dugu Bo immediately became interested.

He has dominated the world of poisons for decades and is recognized as the number one poison expert in the entire Douluo Continent, possessing an extremely keen perception of all poisons in the world.

He wanted to see just how much terrifying poison could be hidden in such a small object.

With a thought, Dugu Bo quietly released a wisp of pure soul power, slowly probing towards the black iron gall in Ao Yin's palm, carefully sensing the aura contained within.

But the moment the soul power came into contact with the iron gall, a cold, obscure, and extremely domineering poisonous aura suddenly erupted, rushing straight to the senses along with the soul power!

Countless sinister auras, lurking deep within, surged, intertwined, and entangled, concealed yet fierce, reaching the extreme of danger!

Dugu Bo's expression changed slightly, his pupils contracted sharply, and a huge wave surged in his heart!

As a top-tier Poison Douluo, he could tell at a glance that this seemingly ordinary iron gall contained countless rare and exotic poisons, with a wide variety of types and vicious properties, each of which was a deadly poison!

A single burst of ordinary poison is enough to overwhelm a high-level Soul Master, but this item is actually a fusion of countless deadly poisons!

Terrifying! Bizarre! Dangerous!

In a short moment, several keywords had already surfaced in Dugu Bo's mind.

He suddenly looked up, his expression extremely solemn, and murmured in disbelief, "This is... a hidden weapon?"

Only concealed weapons can hide such deadly intent and conceal their aura, appearing plain and unadorned on the outside but harboring a world-destroying ferocity within!

Ao Yin nodded calmly and began to explain.

"That's right, this is a hidden weapon of my Ao Clan's mechanical type!"

"It may seem insignificant, but it is actually full of killing intent. It is a chain reaction, relentlessly pursuing and killing, and those who are hit by it have almost no way to escape."

Upon hearing the name "Ao Men," Dugu Bo's expression changed once again.

Is this the hidden sect where Ao Yin belongs?

I never expected that Ao Yin would possess such a rare treasure!

Seeing his shocked expression, Ao Yin continued to slowly explain the terrifying power of the hidden weapons.

"This Mother-and-Child Soul-Chasing Deadly Courage is a double-layered killing intent."

"The outer bladder layer detonated first, instantly spreading a wide area of ​​purple poisonous smoke that would confuse and bewitch the mind. Even a tiny amount would render an ordinary person unconscious for ten days; even a titled Douluo-level expert who inadvertently inhaled the smoke would suffer sluggish movements, disordered soul power, and a significant loss of combat strength!"

"But the real killing move is hidden inside the mother's gallbladder—hundreds of bone-dissolving needles!"

"The instant the mother's gall bladder exploded, countless divine needles burst forth, indiscriminately covering the area, specifically designed to pierce through a Soul Master's protective aura. The needles were soaked in extremely potent poison; once inside the body, the toxins instantly corroded the blood vessels and bones, turning bones to rotten cotton, causing flesh to fester and become incurably fatal!"

After hearing the full explanation, Dugu Bo's expression became extremely solemn.

Having spent his entire life immersed in the world of poisons, this was the first time he had ever seen such insidious, comprehensive, and unsolvable hidden weapons!

With its four deadly moves—control, defense breaking, poison, and area attack—integrated into one, even a Poison Douluo like him would be badly injured and find it difficult to resolve if hit head-on!

At that moment, he fully understood the terrifying value of this hidden weapon!

Looking at the moved-looking Dugu Bo, Ao Yin spoke softly and slowly.

"This hidden weapon is extremely special, and its danger far exceeds that of ordinary poisons."

"It has an adaptive amplification effect, which can synchronously increase the toxicity and lethality according to the user's soul power cultivation. The stronger the soul power, the stronger the poison's power, and the more terrifying the killing intent it unleashes."

He spread his hands in feigned helplessness, his tone frank and sincere.

"With my current Soul King cultivation level, I can't unleash its true potential at all, so keeping it in my possession is a waste. Only you, senior, with the foundation of a Title Douluo and a mastery of poison throughout your life, can fully tap into the power of this hidden weapon and make it truly shine."

Every word he said was true, and every sentence hit the nail on the head.

Upon hearing this, a glint of light flashed in Dugu Bo's eyes.

Who could refuse such a good deal: to get a top-tier Ao Clan hidden weapon for free and be able to activate it to its perfect state themselves?

He immediately smiled broadly, rubbed his hands together, and spoke with a pleased tone.

"You're getting more and more sensible and perceptive, aren't you!"

After saying that, Dugu Bo raised his hand to take the hidden weapon.

Just as his fingertips were about to touch the iron dagger, Ao Yin pulled back his wrist, instantly withdrawing the hidden weapon into his palm. The movement was swift and decisive, giving him no chance whatsoever.

"Please wait, senior."

Ao Yin's expression turned serious, and his tone became solemn: "Don't underestimate this thing. It's a true deadly weapon, possessing the terrifying power to kill a Title Douluo even if they're above their level!"

A simple sentence made Dugu Bo's heart skip a beat and his mind shake.

For a moment, he couldn't tell whether Ao Yin was deliberately exaggerating or whether this seemingly ordinary hidden weapon truly possessed the heaven-defying power to kill a Title Douluo.

His intense curiosity was instantly piqued, and he could no longer hold back, so he spoke directly.

"Alright, you've piqued my interest. Just tell me, what exactly do you want in return?"

Seeing that Poison Douluo had completely taken the bait, Ao Yin smiled confidently and slowly revealed his purpose.

"Senior, you are overthinking it. Consider this a apology for my previous reckless picking of the medicinal herbs in your garden and the waste of the secret realm's resources."

"Besides, you previously promised that if I could completely cure the Jade Phosphorous Serpent King's poison from you and Dugu Yan, you would owe me a favor. I wonder if you still stand by your word?"

Upon hearing this, Dugu Bo suddenly understood.

He finally saw through Ao Yin's scheme. This kid had laid out layers of traps and lured him step by step, using retreat as a means of advancement. His mind was terrifyingly meticulous. It turned out that he had been waiting for him here all along!

He saw through the scheme, but showed no anger; he could only shake his head with a helpless, bitter smile.

"You little rascal, you're as cunning as a fox!"

"No need for beating around the bush or testing the waters. I, Dugu Bo, have lived a life of great success, and I value promises above all else. Even if you don't say anything, I will never break my word."

At this point, Dugu Bo puffed out his chest, exuding confidence.

In six months, under Ao Yin's guidance, most of the deadly poison that had plagued him for decades was cleared, his meridians were unblocked, and his soul power improved.

If this method of sealing the poison into the bone is continued, the stubborn poison in granddaughter Dugu Yan's body will surely be completely eradicated.

He was eccentric and capricious, yet he remained true to himself and always kept his word.

"Make any requests you have! As long as they don't cross my bottom line, I'll agree to anything!"

Ao Yin's smile deepened as he slowly stated the conditions he had already prepared.

"Actually, it's just a small matter. I would like to ask you to serve as a nominal advisor to our Shrek Academy."
