Douluo: Martial Soul Research Diary

Chapter 285 Timing
"that's it?"

Dugu Bo's brows furrowed.

He scrutinized Yu Xiaogang and Tang San repeatedly, his expression cold and sinister.

"Stealing the champion's soul bone, or Han Tao's soul bone? You really dare to say that?"

"This is not only going against the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School, but also against the Spirit Hall that awards the prizes, and all the forces that organize the entire National Elite Advanced Soul Master Competition!"

Faced with his sharp questioning, the master stammered and remained silent out of fear.

"What, are you scared?"

Tang San said disdainfully, "Those who dare not cause trouble are mediocre. I never thought that you, a titled Douluo, would be such a coward."

"snort."

Han Tao couldn't help but laugh out loud.

Yu Xiaogang was hanging his head and counting his toes. Tang San's sarcasm made it hard not to wonder who the real person was.

"A poor way of provoking someone!"

Poison Douluo spoke calmly, then, perhaps intrigued, turned his head:

"Han Tao, they suggested that I steal your soul bone. Don't you have anything to say?"

The conversation was steered towards Han Tao.

Tang San and Yu Xiaogang both turned their heads.

"Han Tao, as a Soul Master raised in the Heaven Dou Empire, you should now express your loyalty to the Empire!"

Facing Han Tao, the master seemed to regain his courage and quickly seized the moral high ground.

"What loyalty?" Han Tao asked in surprise.

"Of course, it's to present a soul bone to our Poison Douluo, a guest of the Heaven Dou Empire!"

Tang San quickly added, "If you refuse, you are an unfaithful and disloyal person!"

"I will make the people of Douluo Continent see your true colors!"

Han Tao remained silent.

With Han Tao's silence, the atmosphere in the air seemed to freeze in time.

Tang San felt a strange sense of desolation, just like the premonition of being targeted by hidden weapons when facing inner disciples in his previous life.

"Something's wrong!"

His expression showed slight fear.

Within the myriad forms of the invisible, within the light and shadow that are imperceptible to ordinary people, two completely different illusions seem to merge into a single whole in perfect harmony.

"Now is Tang San's weakest moment."

After experiencing so many twists and turns, Tang San is now facing a desperate situation.

Haotian Douluo's period of dominance with his ring-exploding ability has passed, and a series of people, including Poison Douluo and the Heaven Dou Royal Family, are now on his opposite side.
"The opportunity is fleeting!"

Within a short distance, the decision had been made.

Although Tang San sensed something was amiss, Han Tao's illusion, after repeated optimizations, had developed its own system.

Thoughts and consciousness are unknowingly swept up by an endless illusion.

Within the illusion, Han Tao's tone was calm: "Indeed, I possess a ten-thousand-year-old soul bone."

"But don't expect me to hand it over so easily. However, you can collect five hundred-year-old Guzhu Soul Bones to exchange with me."

Beneath the surface of their seemingly ordinary conversation lay a hidden murderous intent.

In the real world, Han Tao had already raised his longbow, the liquid phosphorus toxin condensed and hidden in the sharp tip of the arrow.

"strangeness."

Tang San has a very strong combat intuition.

The abnormality in his Qi aroused his vigilance.

"Ghostly Shadows, Ghostly Shadows!"

Instinctively controlling his body, he unleashed a ghostly, elusive gait.

"What a pity," Han Tao sighed.

"Within the illusionary realm, no matter how much you use Ghostly Shadows and Shadowy Steps, it won't affect reality in the slightest."

"Secondly, in the real world, your remaining strength is insufficient to support the use of Ghostly Shadows."

"Besides, even if..."

The arrow was fired according to Han Tao's calculations, and all the escape routes of the Ghost Shadow were sensed and positioned by the pervasive blue silver eye.

Therefore, even if he could use Ghostly Shadow, it would be meaningless.

"Tang San, get out of the way!" Yu Xiaogang shouted urgently.

It too was a broken body, witnessing Han Tao nock his arrow and draw the bowstring, yet powerless to make any change.

Dugu Bo nodded in agreement: "Mm!"

"call out!"

"Tear!" Two clearly audible sounds echoed in the confined space.

The arrow pierced the air with a sonic boom, drawing the attention of everyone around.

"No!" Tang Hao cried out in grief and indignation.

But the arrows were unwavering, the material dimension was indestructible, and the power of calculation, however exhaustive, could overcome the unpredictability of fate.

The sharp arrow pierced through Tang San's body.

"Uh"

He let out a muffled groan.

In the real world, the instinct for danger transmitted from within his body awakens Tang San from the illusion.

"what's the situation."

Examine your injured area.
A deep, charred black mark appeared on his chest, a result of the corrosive effects of the concentrated phosphorus toxin.

Moreover, this corrosion is gradually seeping into the heart.
"Han Tao, you actually attacked me in broad daylight!"

"Evil Soul Master, your crimes are heinous!"

Looking around, he seemed to be searching for outside help, but no Soul Master took his words to heart.

"Tang San."

Yu Xiaogang struggled to climb to Tang San's side.

"This arrow is poisoned. Tell me how to cure it, and I will help you find a solution."

at the same time,

Han Tao was also taken aback.

Because everything went so smoothly, it couldn't help but raise suspicions.
"Blue Silver Eye!"

The perception ability of the third soul skill once again transmitted all the surrounding information to Han Tao's mind, including the symptoms that Tang San experienced after being poisoned.

Symptoms are converging.

"Unless it's the Illusionary Heart Lotus, but the Illusionary Heart Lotus was severely injured in spirit and consciousness by Tang San's Purple Demon Eye, and the two are mortal enemies."

Han Tao still hesitated: "But why?"

"I haven't seen any sign of destiny. Could it be that it has given up on helping Tang San?"

Although hesitant, Han Tao did not give up his habit of finishing off the enemy. He was in control of the area and could not show any mercy.

He raised the recurve bow once more, and a new arrow of emerald light condensed at his fingertips.

"Whoosh!" "Tear!"

Two voices rang out again.

Unexpected events followed.

Located behind Tang San, the Eight Spider Lances suddenly extended, their spider legs replacing human legs. Driven by their soul bones, they forcefully pulled Tang San's physical body to dodge the arrow.

"Soul Bone Consciousness"

At that moment, Han Tao witnessed the truth firsthand.

"The human-faced demon spider wants to possess Tang San's body."

"Just like the nine-headed bat that took over Tang Chen's body."

Within the illusion, a neat cliff face is constructed, and one can sit comfortably at the top.

With a light tap of the finger, thoughts gradually flowed forward with the rhythm:

"Abandoning control of one's physical body, allowing the Human-Faced Demon Spider to activate its soul bone and thus gain new power."

"But."

"Even a 70,000-year-old human-faced demon spider couldn't withstand my Azure Phosphorous Arrow, so how could a soul bone sacrificed to it possibly withstand it?"

Under Han Tao's distraction and control, he quickly grasped the enemy's tactics.

The next arrow soared into the air once more.

"Han Tao!"

At that moment, Tang Hao's angry curses rang in his ears.

"If you dare to harm my son today, even if Sword Douluo and Sect Master Ning are here, I will definitely kill you both!"

"Trust me, they can't stop me!"

However, Han Tao turned a deaf ear.

The crosshairs of the bow and arrow were once again locked onto Tang San, who was not far away.

Yu Xiaogang tried to stop it, but before he could even make a move, he was stopped by Poison Douluo.

"Tang San."

"Perhaps Poison Douluo wouldn't dare kill you, but I dare!"

The arrow, accompanied by Han Tao's unwavering will, pierced through the ages and destiny, and once again reached Tang San's chest.
