Douluo Continent: I Have a Diverse Order-Taking Platform

"have."

Liu Yuan's confident reply brightened Dugu Yan's eyes, who hadn't held out much hope. Why not give it a try?

"What method? How confident are you?"

"Ninety percent certain."

Liu Yuan left some room for maneuver in his words, not making any definitive statements.

"Ninety percent..."

Without much thought, Dugu Yan had already made up her mind: this time, she would go all in and gamble!

"Okay, 90% done!" She held up two fingers. "But don't forget, my mission has two requirements. You also need to enhance my strength."

Liu Yuan nodded, indicating that he understood perfectly.

"That's fine too."

"That's good. Tell me your idea."

But Liu Yuan's next answer froze the atmosphere: "My method is to give you poison sacs."

"..."

After a long silence, Dugu Yan smiled. But her smile resembled a blooming poppy.

"What did you say?"

This method seems so familiar.

"Well…"

Liu Yuan paused.

As if by magic, black smoke was seen billowing out from Dugu Yan, who was smiling brightly at the moment.

"...I said I'd give you a poison sac."

"A poison sac..."

Dugu Yan smiled. "So, little brother, is your next line about using a soul bone?"

"That's true, but it's different from Tang San's."

Liu Yuan knew that Dugu Yan was reacting to stress.

Once bitten, twice shy.

However, it must be admitted that other methods are difficult. Even if one has an idea, it is difficult to put it into practice.

After all, Dugu Yan's body...

It was on the verge of collapse and couldn't withstand any more setbacks.

Moreover, Dugu Yan also admitted that Tang San's method was indeed effective before the soul bone capacity reached its limit.

Fortunately, he was lucky back then and obtained the external soul bone of the Human-Faced Demon Spider in the gender-swapped Douluo universe.

Liu Yuan was even thinking,

Was this task refresh pre-arranged?

As a soul bone with the potential for growth and special abilities, this external soul bone can serve as a "poison sac" within Dugu Yan's body.

Anyway, he can't use this external soul bone.

Yuanliu was originally an invincible path!

Why add toxic properties?

So trading it for a piece of land that isn't completely abandoned yet, and a few unsprouted and nearly mature immortal herbs... no matter how you look at it, this deal is a win-win.

"Oh?"

At this moment, Liu Yuan's words stunned Dugu Yan.

"Is there a difference?"

"That's right."

Liu Yuan nodded, and then took out the human-faced demon spider's external soul bone from his storage soul tool.

With just one glance, Dugu Yan's eyes widened.

"Soul Bone!? No, that's not right!"

Having become a Soul Saint, her discerning eye naturally sharpened considerably. She immediately realized that this soul bone did not belong to any of the six major soul bones.

Then a thought popped into her mind, and she blurted it out, "An external soul bone?!"

In fact, when they first realized that there was a limit to the number of soul bones, Dugu Bo and Dugu Yan both considered attaching external soul bones. However, soul bones are already rare, and external soul bones are even rarer. It would be good if there was one in a hundred soul bones.

Moreover, even if it could be found, while the evolution problem would be solved, how could an external soul bone absorb the deadly poison?

It's important to understand that not every external soul bone can achieve this. Therefore, they had no choice but to give up.

Unexpectedly, Liu Yuan took out a piece.

And this style…

Dugu Yan pondered for a moment, feeling that the face looked familiar.

"That's right, it's an external soul bone." Liu Yuan pointed to the eight spider legs that resembled ribs. "I got it from a human-faced demon spider."

Suddenly, Dugu Yan raised her head.

"Eight Spider Lances!?"

As Dugu Bo's granddaughter,

Before his death, Dugu Bo told Dugu Yan everything he knew about Tang San.

This naturally includes the general situation of his Eight Spider Lances, and how, after Tang San consumed the Eight-Cornered Ice Grass and the Fiery Apricot Vegetable, the Eight Spider Lances absorbed the dual poisons of ice and fire, causing this external soul bone to evolve.

This was clearly exactly what she needed.

"So you're going to use it to complete the mission!?"

Dugu Yan stared intently at Liu Yuan.

I wanted to confirm whether he was joking or not.

"certainly."

"ha--"

Suddenly, Dugu Yan smiled.

This time, her smile was genuine.

"I never expected that after you obtained an external soul bone, you didn't think of absorbing it yourself immediately, but instead kept it."

Liu Yuan shook his head.

"It doesn't suit me."

Upon hearing this, Dugu Yan didn't say anything more.

Neither of them were the type to dawdle.

So after confirming that everything was correct, Dugu Yan took the "Eight Spider Spears" and spoke again just before using her soul power to guide and absorb it, "I will not perfectly fuse the external soul bone until you complete the mission."

"That way, if I fail, you can still exhume me and take my bones. That way, you can make up for your losses."

"good!"

Liu Yuan did not refuse and readily agreed.

Soon, the "Eight Spider Lances" merged into Dugu Yan's body like a purplish-black liquid, and her aura began to fluctuate. As time passed, her condition stabilized.

Until a violent spasm occurred, four fist-sized bulges appeared on each side of Dugu Yan's spine.

"Sizzle—"

The eight protrusions suddenly ruptured!

A deep purple object, as thick as a fist, emerged from the protrusion and grew wildly at an alarming rate.

Those spider legs are terrifying to look at!

"call--"

Opening her eyes, Dugu Yan slowly exhaled a breath of stale air.

After confirming that everything is correct,

She then activated the devouring ability of the "Eight Spider Spears".

In an instant, the deadly poison within her body began to stir restlessly.

But in less than a breath, the deadly poison in her body began to converge on the Eight Spider Spears like rivers flowing into the sea.

The eight spider spears, originally purplish-black, were gradually stained with dark green, making them not only incredibly gruesome to look at, but also emitting a strong, fishy stench, which startled Liu Yuan.

So he quickly retreated and summoned his martial spirit.

With the third soul skill, a transparent barrier was created to block the way.

This allowed Liu Yuan to see clearly,

After the Azure Scale Serpent venom was transferred into the Eight Spider Spears, Dugu Yan underwent several changes. First, her fingernails, then her eyes, and then her hair... the original color gradually faded, returning to the normal black of a human.

However, after being ravaged by the deadly poison,

Dugu Yan's physical condition was not much better.

A moment later, she slowly opened her eyes.

Dugu Yan could sense the condition of her own body.

Now, not only has the poison problem been solved, but to some extent, the path for her to improve her strength has also been solved.

Good thing!

Dugu Yan was filled with mixed emotions.

He slowly stood up without the slightest hesitation, "Little brother, the Ice and Fire Yin-Yang Well is yours."

Liu Yuan: "Deal."

【Ding! 】

The platform issued a notification.

Dugu Yan left without looking back.

Soon after, Liu Yuan was enveloped in colorful light.

The next second, "Buzz—"

Liu Yuan disappeared.

Immediately afterwards, the entire valley seemed to have been wiped away by some unknown means, leaving only a large pit.
