I collect fragments in Douluo Continent

Chapter 86 Poison Soul Core!

"This is?!!"

Lu Feng looked at the crystal core in front of him, a hint of amazement flashing in his eyes.

Did this old guy actually manage to master it?

Previously, when Dugu Bo showed Lu Feng his poison pill, a faint snake smell accompanied the appearance of the poison pill.

Clearly, that was the smell emanating from the snake venom within the inner core.

Now, Lu Feng could not detect any trace of snake venom from this crystal core.

All he could sense was a pure pressure of soul power.

"Yanyan, go and rest first. Grandpa and Tang Si will discuss cultivation matters," Dugu Bo said gently.

Dugu Bo was not avoiding Dugu Yan; on the contrary, he was paving the way for Dugu Yan by using this method of condensing the soul core.

However, he still needs to verify this with Tang Si.

Dugu Yan glanced at Tang Si and said to Dugu Bo, "Alright, Grandpa, Tang Si is my good friend, you're not allowed to tease him."

"Alright, alright, Grandpa is too busy thanking him to even think about it," Dugu Bo waved his hand dismissively.

After Dugu Yan had gone far away.

"Whoosh!"

Dugu Bo grabbed Lu Feng by the collar and flew to the top of the valley in the blink of an eye.

"Boy! What's going on between you and Yanyan?!" Dugu Bo asked sternly.

Lu Feng calmly replied, "Just as you hoped, senior, I received two gold bricks."

"Hiss~!"

Upon hearing this, Dugu Bo's eyes widened immediately.

Just as he was about to speak, Lu Feng coughed lightly and said, "Senior, let's talk about the soul core first."

"Hmph, you brat!"

Dugu Bo snorted coldly, then opened his mouth, and a green crystal core slowly emerged from his body.

Seeing the 'Soul Core' again still surprised Lu Feng.

He opened his eyes wide and began to examine it carefully.

The crystal core is transparent and entirely emerald green. It has six facets, each a rhombus. Streams of light flow across the crystal facets, making it look like a work of art.

"Hahaha, how does my crystal core compare to the soul core you saw in that ancient book?" Dugu Bo laughed loudly, seeing Lu Feng's surprised expression.

"This crystal core is based on my inner core, with soul power and toxins fused together, the two forces tempering each other, and finally refined into this product," Dugu Bo explained.

His face was full of excitement, clearly very satisfied with the crystal core.

This crystal core is extremely stable, storing the toxins within it so they won't leak out. Moreover, as soul power increases, the volume inside the soul core will expand.

In this way, the toxins in his body were completely eliminated.

Of course, the process of crystal nucleus condensation is not always smooth sailing.

In the first few days, Dugu Bo lacked experience, which caused some of the snake venom to enter his body. If it weren't for his soul power reaching level ninety-two, allowing him to forcefully suppress the venom with his own strength, he would have been able to survive.

It seems Lu Feng will have no choice but to inherit the family fortune with tears in his eyes.

"Um"

Lu Feng frowned slightly as he looked at Dugu Bo's 'Soul Core'.

"Senior, I read in a book that a soul core can absorb external soul power and nourish the soul master himself."

"Your soul core."

Lu Feng stroked his chin and pondered, "It can only be considered a special poison pill, far from what I imagined a soul core to be."

The original novel, Douluo Dalu II, mentions that the Soul Core is the most important means for a Title Douluo, and Huo Qubing is an unprecedented cheat code with three Soul Cores.

Dugu Bo's soul core can be considered a failure.

"Hahaha~!" Dugu Bo laughed loudly.

A powerful surge of soul energy erupted from his body, and a burst of soul energy spread out, instantly stirring up a violent gust of wind.

Caught off guard, Lu Feng was instantly blasted away by the airflow and crashed into a pile of sand.

"Boy, look at my soul power level!" Dugu Bo said with great enthusiasm.

"Ptooey, ptooey!"

Lu Feng spat out the sand in his mouth, cursing inwardly, "Damn it, that old bastard is definitely doing this on purpose again!"

Once I cultivate to the level of a Title Douluo.

No, cultivate to the level of Soul Saint.

No, wait two more years, and I'll teach Dugu Yan a lesson!

"Senior, you've broken through to level 93?!" Lu Feng said, feigning shock.

How could a level 30 Quasi-Soul Venerable possibly see through Dugu Bo's level?

However, Dugu Bo had previously broken through to level 92 after taking elixirs. After a year of seclusion, he completely resolved his toxin problem, so reaching level 93 was reasonable.

"That's right, level ninety-three!" Dugu Bo said proudly, stroking his beard.

"My God! Senior has actually broken through two levels of soul power within a year! Truly, this is unprecedented and will likely never be repeated!"

Lu Feng cupped his hands in greeting and said solemnly, "A Title Douluo, truly terrifying!"

Dugu Bo saw that Lu Feng looked unwilling but was pretending to be serious, and burst into laughter.

This kid is a talent!

Yan Yan's marriage to him is a good match.

"Boy, I haven't been able to get through the method you mentioned for absorbing soul power from the outside," Dugu Bo said solemnly.

"However, after I integrate my own toxins into the crystal core, they can be transformed into the purest source of soul power."

Not a single mistake, not a single poem, not a single post, not a single piece of content, not a single look!

"I've accumulated toxins for half my life, and I've only managed to convert them into level one soul power. For my future cultivation, I'm still considering whether I should take some highly poisonous substances."

"Holy crap!" Lu Feng was stunned after hearing Dugu Bo's words.

Are you perhaps the legendary "Calamity Poison Body"?

What the hell did this come from?

Is this still Douluo Continent?

"Senior is so incredibly talented, no wonder you are a Title Douluo, I admire you!" Lu Feng said loudly.

This time, he truly admired Dugu Bo's talent.

As expected, none of those who can cultivate to the level of Title Douluo are simple individuals.

"Hmph!" Dugu Bo stood with his hands behind his back, quietly watching the clouds in the distance.

On the horizon, a bird flew through the clouds and circled away.

"You've broken through to level 30, do you have a soul beast you like?" Dugu Bo asked casually.

Upon hearing this, Lu Feng's eyes lit up. If he had the help of a Title Douluo, wouldn't his third spirit ring be a piece of cake?

However, he shook his head and said, "Thank you for your kindness, senior. I have already made plans for my third spirit ring and need to go to the Star Dou Great Forest, so I won't trouble you any further."

If Dugu Bo is with him, it will be inconvenient to find that white tiger.

Lu Feng didn't believe that Dugu Bo's nose could be better than Luo Wupao's.

If Luo Wupao were shown to Dugu Bo, it would be even more troublesome.

You can't exactly say you have twin martial souls, can you?

Although Dugu Bo probably wouldn't care about these things, one lie often requires more lies to explain it.

Lu Feng doesn't have the habit of revealing his trump cards casually.

"Very well, with your current strength, even ordinary Soul Masters can't do anything to you. Hunting a Soul Beast that's one or two thousand years old shouldn't be a problem," Dugu Bo said calmly.

"Perfect timing, I need to go into seclusion to study this. This method of condensing the soul core still needs some revision; with my level 30 soul power, I simply can't condense it."

With that, Dugu Bo led Lu Feng back to the bottom of the valley.

"Although things have been calm on the mainland these past few years, I have a feeling this is probably the calm before the storm. Be extra careful when you're out and about!"

After saying that, Dugu Bo walked straight into the stone chamber without turning his head.

"Huh, this old guy actually cares about me?"

On the small hillside, a boy and a girl leaned against each other quietly.

As the last rays of the setting sun faded, the starry sky shone brightly, and the Milky Way stretched across the heavens.

"Yanyan, I need to go away for a while. After I hunt for the Soul Ring, I'll stay in Soto City for a bit." Lu Feng's voice revealed a hint of reluctance.

"Hmph, go ahead, go ahead. You can stay in that lousy city of yours forever." Dugu Yan pouted and said unhappily.

The stars were shining brightly, and the insects were chirping.

A gentle breeze caressed their faces, as if trying to carry away the sorrow of parting.

"Yanyan, there's something I need to tell you." At this moment, Lu Feng said seriously.

"What's wrong? You're not leaving?" Dugu Yan asked in surprise.

"Actually, Tang Si is my alias. My real name is Tang Wu."

"Hmph!" Dugu Yan snorted lightly, "I don't care what your name is, Tang Ersan Siwu. Next time we meet, I'll definitely bite you again."

"Anything else is fine, but not Tang San. He's my brother."

"Hmph, next time I see this Tang San, I'll give him a good beating!"
