Douluo Continent: Martial Soul Spinning Top, Explosive Warrior

"You think I'm afraid of your few broken chrysanthemums?"

"I couldn't beat you before because my soul power was weaker than yours."

"But now, hehe."

Dugu Bo sensed his own level 93 soul power and smiled without saying a word.

Currently, his soul power is still slightly inferior to Chrysanthemum Douluo's, but the gap between their strengths is no longer so absolute.

"you……"

Hearing Dugu Bo's laughter, Chrysanthemum Douluo was furious.

So what if they volunteered to join me, and I was forced to? Humph!

However, Chrysanthemum Douluo could only think these words in his heart; he absolutely could not say them aloud.

After all, the Sword Douluo's sword energy was still suppressing him in his spiritual sea.

"Alright, alright, stop being angry. Let's hurry up and look for it."

"If you have the energy to argue with me, you might as well go find a few more poisonous plants to take back."

Dugu Bo looked at Ju Douluo's sullen face and gave him a friendly reminder.

Although Chrysanthemum Douluo was sharp-tongued, he knew in his heart that Dugu Bo was right.

He gave a muffled "humph" and stopped talking, but quickened his pace, keeping up a little more closely.

The two walked forward in silence for about the time it takes for an incense stick to burn.

Dugu Bo suddenly changed the subject, as if talking to himself, or as if chatting with Chrysanthemum Douluo: "Speaking of which, life has actually been pretty good since I entered the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School."

Upon hearing this, Chrysanthemum Douluo slightly pursed his lips, but did not refute it.

He knew, of course, that Dugu Bo was telling the truth.

Although Chrysanthemum Douluo was initially forced to join the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School, the situation has indeed been changing little by little over time.

First, there are resources.

The Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect is the wealthiest sect in the world, possessing an extremely rich collection of rare medicinal herbs and cultivation resources.

Ning Fengzhi personally ordered that each of the two titled Douluo be given a large amount of herbs every month for cultivation or to concoct poisons.

Secondly, there is trust.

Because of their special circumstances, although they joined the sect later, they actually know the most things about the sect best.

For example, they were the ones handling the matter of the Ice and Fire Yin-Yang Well.

Dugu Bo and Chrysanthemum Douluo's trip was also to collect poisonous herbs and plant them around the Ice and Fire Yin-Yang Well to strengthen the poisonous miasma there.

"As for Sect Leader Ning..."

Chrysanthemum Douluo pondered for a moment, unusually without his sarcastic tone.

"His magnanimity and demeanor are truly beyond reproach."

Dugu Bo, unusually, didn't argue and nodded: "Otherwise, I wouldn't be able to put in so much effort."

The two then continued their search while bickering.

The mud beneath their feet grew softer and softer, and the poisonous fog grew thicker and thicker.

Dugu Bo's gaze suddenly sharpened, landing on a clump of strange plants about twenty steps ahead.

It was a thorny plant that was entirely black, with silver barbs covering its stem. It had no leaves, only a single flower the size of a fist at the top.

"found it."

Dugu Bo lowered his voice, his tone filled with barely concealed excitement, and said, "It's Bloodthorn Golden Stamen Grass."

"This thing is even harder to find than I imagined. I never expected to find one here."

Chrysanthemum Douluo also came over, examined it carefully, and a hint of surprise flashed in his eyes: "The age is a bit low, only three thousand years."

"Are you sure this thing can be transplanted near the Ice and Fire Yin-Yang Well to strengthen the surrounding poisonous miasma?"

"Of course I'm sure."

Dugu Bo squatted down, carefully clearing away the surrounding soil and humus, and said, "The Bloodthorn Golden Core Grass is notoriously domineering."

"If you plant it in the surrounding poisonous miasma, the concentration of the miasma will definitely increase significantly."

Chrysanthemum Douluo nodded, took two steps back, and unleashed his soul power to guard against the surrounding dangers.

Dugu Bo then focused intently on digging out the Bloodthorn Golden Stamen Grass.

He used a jade shovel to carefully dig away the soil bit by bit, gently loosening the clods of earth along the direction of the roots, trying not to damage any of the tiny roots.

This process was extremely mentally taxing. After about half an hour, Dugu Bo finally dug out the poisonous plant completely, roots and all, carefully placed it in a bag, and tied several knots at the opening of the bag to ensure that the poison gas would not leak out.

These bags were specially made by Dugu Bo for transplanting poisonous plants, ensuring the best possible transplanting results.

"okay."

Dugu Bo stood up, patted the mud off his knees, let out a long sigh of relief, and said, "This mission is now complete."

"With the Bloodthorn Golden Core Grass in hand, plus the few auxiliary poisonous herbs from before, we'll have enough to reinforce the poisonous miasma defense around the Ice and Fire Yin-Yang Well once we get back."

Chrysanthemum Douluo glanced at the sky.

Of course, the sky is nowhere to be seen in this swamp shrouded in poisonous fog.

However, Ju Douluo was able to roughly judge the time based on his years of experience; it was probably around the hour of Chou (1-3 AM).

"It's time to go back. The sect leader said not to linger outside for too long, lest something unexpected happen."

Dugu Bo had no objection.

The two tidied their belongings, checked their direction, and prepared to start their return journey.

"boom--!"

A loud bang exploded from a distance without warning.

Dugu Bo and Ju Douluo stopped at the same time and looked at each other.

Dugu Bo listened intently, his brows gradually furrowing.

He could tell that the explosion was not a natural phenomenon; it contained the aftershocks of a collision of soul power, as well as the sound of metal colliding.

"That direction..."

Chrysanthemum Douluo looked eastward, but although he couldn't see anything, the expression on his face said it all.

"It seems like someone is fighting a soul beast."

Dugu Bo did not respond, but he had already put the jade shovel back into his pocket, replaced by a tense body and rapidly circulating soul power within him.

Then, the two of them simultaneously concealed their presence, lowered their stance slightly, and crept towards the direction from which the explosion had come.

The roar of the explosion echoed through the forest, and thick smoke carrying broken branches and leaves shot into the sky. The trees within a radius of a hundred meters had been completely destroyed by the aftershocks of the battle, exposing scorched earth and uprooted tree roots.

Dugu Bo and Ju Douluo concealed their auras, almost blending into the night.

Two figures moved silently through the forest, quickly heading towards the direction of the explosion.

Chrysanthemum Douluo's expression was solemn, and his eyes revealed a hint of apprehension. He could feel the intense fluctuations of soul power coming from ahead, far exceeding the combat between ordinary Title Douluos.

Dugu Bo frowned, a cautious look on his face.

At this moment, the battle at the explosion site had reached a fever pitch.

In mid-air, a golden dragon, its body gleaming, coiled in the sky. The dragon's body was tens of feet long, and its scales were all formed from pure soul power, exuding a suffocating pressure.

Demon-Slaying Douluo and Thousand-Pound Douluo stood side by side, their martial souls sharing the same origin and their auras merging, pushing their martial soul fusion skill to its limit.

The golden dragon's giant claws gripped the body of the azure ox python tightly. The enormous azure creature struggled fiercely, its bull head raised to the sky, letting out a deafening roar filled with pain and resentment.

On the ground, Bibi Dong was suppressing the Titan Giant Ape all by herself.

The Death Spider Queen had already unleashed her true form. Her body was covered in a purplish-black carapace, and eight spider spears bared their fangs and claws behind her, each one as sharp as a blade.

The Titan Ape clenched its fists and attacked in all directions, creating waves of energy. But Bibi Dong was too fast. The Bloodsucking Spider Spikes formed by her sixth soul skill kept taking shape in the void and rained down on the Titan Ape's body.

The Titan Ape dodged repeatedly, but was still scratched by Bibi Dong's spider stings.

"Erming, take Sister Xiaowu with you!"

The Azure Bull Python's voice boomed like thunder, but it was barely able to protect itself. The golden dragon's restraints tightened, and that divine power had a natural restraint on soul beasts.

Upon hearing Da Ming's voice, the Titan Giant Ape Er Ming quickly looked toward the remaining battlefield.

Xiao Wu was in grave danger as she was surrounded by several cardinals.

However, despite being in a dangerous situation, Xiao Wu managed to save her life from several bishops with the strength of Soul Douluo by using her teleportation soul skill and invincible golden body soul skill.

However, as time went by, Xiao Wu's face turned pale. Her continuous use of soul skills had greatly depleted her soul power, and if this continued, she wouldn't be able to hold on for much longer.

At this moment, on the other side of the battlefield, Tang San and Tang Hao, who happened to be passing by the Star Dou Great Forest, happened to see the battle in front of them.

Tang San came here because it was the day he had agreed upon with the other members of the Shrek Academy team, and Tang San was traveling from the Clear Sky Sect to Heaven Dou City.

In order to save time, Tang Hao did not take a detour, but relied on his own strength to traverse the entire Star Dou Great Forest.

Therefore, they happened to run into Bibi Dong and her group hunting a 100,000-year-old soul beast.

Seeing Xiao Wu being attacked, Tang San stood at the edge of the battlefield, his eyes bloodshot.

"Xiao Wu..."

Tang San had barely opened his mouth when Tang Hao beside him moved.

"Take care of yourself, I'll go help them."

Before he finished speaking, Haotian Douluo's figure shot out like a meteor.

A dark golden light suddenly emanated from Tang Hao's body, and the Clear Sky Hammer appeared out of thin air. He held it in his palm, and ancient patterns appeared on the surface of the jet-black giant hammer, exuding a chilling killing intent.

At this time, the situation on the battlefield was very chaotic.

Tang Hao, as expected of a titled Douluo who fought his way up, saw the key to breaking the deadlock at a glance.
