Douluo Continent: Martial Soul Thunder Dragon, A Century of Glory

Chapter 50 The Goal is Ten Thousand Years

Ever since Dugu Bo tasted the wonder of Dugu Yan's third soul skill, he no longer acquired Dugu Yan's soul rings by chance.

The right spirit rings are absolutely a great asset to a spirit master.

Similar to the Blue Lightning Tyrannosaurus Rex Martial Soul, which has a nearly fixed path for obtaining Soul Rings, these are the optimal choices that have been tested by generations of people over countless years.

Such a choice is certainly the best, but without flexibility, one will never be able to break through.

Maintaining strong stability is certainly important, but without considering change, it's impossible to achieve even greater success.

This isn't just limited to the Blue Lightning Tyrannosaurus Rex clan; the four major single-attribute clans generally have fixed methods for acquiring spirit rings. Essentially, they are family-based martial spirits, each possessing a set of effective spirit ring systems.

After Yun Yibai provided several pre-selected soul beasts that day, Dugu Bo not only went back to investigate them but also pondered them, imagining the effect of Dugu Yan using those soul skills in battle.

The next day, the four of them left the city.

"Since we've come all this way, let's find a suitable one." Yang Wudi naturally had no objection to Dugu Bo's words, after all, he had sold himself and the entire Po clan to Dugu Bo.

The far north was a vast expanse of white, making the four figures appear incredibly small. The far north wasn't a plain; on the contrary, plains were scarce, and the landscape was mostly hills upon hills.

The density of spirit beasts in the far north is not small. Born in the far north, the spirit beasts here have adapted to the temperature. The far north is somewhat different from the Star Dou Great Forest; the core area here can only be entered by those who can withstand the cold of a much deeper region.

This is why the Zhu Qing Ice Toad, a soul beast, is located on the outskirts of the far north.

Dugu Yan: "The most common spirit beast I've seen along the way is the snow wolf. It feels like there are far fewer types of spirit beasts in this far north than in the Star Dou Great Forest."

"The far north is vast, covering a much larger area than the Star Dou Great Forest. The harsh environment means that the number of soul beasts in the far north is also less than that in the Star Dou Great Forest. Moreover, we haven't gone very far yet, so naturally we've only seen a few."

As the four continued their journey northward towards the northernmost home, the number of soul beasts they encountered soon increased from those with a hundred-year cultivation level to those with a thousand-year cultivation level.

Along the way, we encountered not only snow wolves, but also ice spirit foxes, cold moon rhinoceroses, snow cloud birds, and many more...

On the first day, they passed through the area between the hundred-year-old soul beasts and the thousand-year-old soul beasts, and found a forest on the outskirts where they rested for the night.

This area is currently at the boundary between a hundred and a thousand years, and these weak soul beasts dare not approach when they sense the power released by Dugu Bo.

"Most of these sub-dragon-type soul beasts prefer to stay in mountain streams, mountains, and forests," Yang Wudi shared his experience.

"Your Majesty will need to put in more effort then. Those kinds of soul beasts are all related to poison. Your Majesty's sensitivity to poison far surpasses ours. You will be able to use this perception to quickly search for the target soul beast."

"After all, poisonous spirit beasts are quite rare in this far north!"

The next day, Dugu Bo led the way, following the method Yang Wudi had described.

A few days later, they indeed found something. In a snowy forest, they discovered a 5,000-year-old chalk venomous lizard. However, because its age was too young and its quality was not good, they chose to abandon it.

If they were to choose him, they might as well just pick a poisonous spider soul beast from Sunset Forest.

In the following period, the group found the right method and made successive gains, but most of them were not the target soul beasts. They did find a White Spirit Ice Poison Dragon, but it was only four thousand years old, which Dugu Bo was naturally not satisfied with.

……

"Hmm?" As the four approached a low-lying valley in the central region of the far north, Dugu Bo suddenly stopped.

Upon seeing this, Yang Wudi, Yun Yibai, and Dugu Yan knew that Dugu Bo had made another discovery. They had been in the far north for about twenty days, and this was Dugu Bo's eighth prey.

Although it takes a long time and the process is tedious, slow and steady wins the race, doesn't it? Hehe!

"This time is different, this poison..." Dugu Bo frowned deeply.

This was the first time the group had ever seen Dugu Bo so serious.

"This poison feels somewhat familiar, yet it's also very unfamiliar. It's extremely potent!!!" Even the Poison Master Dugu Bo said this, so you can imagine how toxic it is.

"The smell of poison is coming from this icy valley ahead."

"If even Your Majesty finds this poison strange, then I, Yang, am quite curious about what kind of spirit beast it is."

Yun Yibai had sharp eyes and spotted the corpse of a soul beast not far away. However, as Dugu Bo and the other two made their move, he followed suit.

The group quickly leaped down into the icy valley.

Dugu Bo's perception of poison has reached the point where he can sense it even through living beings; this is the strength of his status as the Supreme Poison Master and the Poison Douluo.

"Coo coo coo~"

"Coo coo coo~"

"Coo coo coo~" Before they could get close, several coo coo coo sounds came in succession.

In fact, they had already entered the poison field. Although their location seemed normal, the surroundings were actually filled with colorless and odorless poison.

I'm currently reading the error-free version! This is the first time I've published this novel.

As for why they were unharmed, it was naturally because of the fragrant and exquisite immortal product.

Yun Yibai and Dugu Yan had already experienced this more than ten days ago. Well, mainly Dugu Yan, because Yun Yibai had also become immune to the poison.

Although the Fragrant Qiluo Immortal Item is extremely alluring to both humans and soul beasts, Yang Wudi has a way to conceal its aura.

"This sound doesn't sound like that of a large soul beast," Yang Wudi said.

Dugu Yan chimed in, "It sounds a bit like a frog!"

Yun Yibai: "I think we might have found another target soul beast!"

Yang Wudi looked at him. "You mean Zhu Qingbingchan?"

"We'll find out soon enough!" Dugu Bo said calmly.

With the toxins completely neutralized, they moved with agility, as if they were in an empty space.

"Coo coo coo~"

A few minutes later, they could clearly feel that they were getting closer and closer to their goal.

The sound seemed to be right next to them until they passed through an ice cave.

The four hid behind the frozen stone wall, looking at the ice lake not far away, where there were four toads with ice-blue bodies and fiery red eyes.

"It really is Zhu Qingbingchan!"

"Isn't it said that these kinds of soul beasts live in the outer reaches of the far north, in the areas bordering humans?" Yang Wudi was quite surprised.

"Strictly speaking, this place is still far from the depths of the far north. It's just an area where thousand-year-old soul beasts live, and it can barely be considered a place bordering humans..." Yun Yibai's explanation was rather far-fetched.

"Okay! I think it must be because of that thing!" Yun Yibai pointed to the top of Zhu Qingbing Toad, where an ice-blue lotus flower was growing on the top of the ice cave.
