Chapter 29 Detoxification (Part 4)
Dugu Bo took out the soul bones he had collected over the past few days. Overall, he had exceeded his expectations. The drop rate for soul bones was only one in ten thousand. Dugu Bo had already been extremely lucky to obtain three soul bones after hunting more than twenty ten-thousand-year-old soul beasts.
"Senior Dugu, could you please introduce what you've gained this time?"
Li Luochen looked at the three soul bones in front of him, which were full of soul power fluctuations. Unfortunately, they did not match his attributes. However, he was very curious to know how many years old they were.
"Heh, still calling me 'senior'? You should call me 'grandpa' like Yan Yan does. You're quick on the uptake! Had I been any later, would we have already slept together?"
Dugu Bo looked at Li Luochen and said calmly. Hearing that the deed was done, Dugu Yan's face turned red again. It was clearly just that she couldn't help herself, and she hadn't even kissed him yet, but she was caught red-handed.
"Alright, this junior has overstepped his bounds. Grandpa Dugu, could you please tell me about your gains this time?"
Li Luochen shamelessly climbed up to him, and Dugu Bo's expression instantly changed from gloomy to sunny. Sure enough, those who know how to please others get what they want.
"The three soul bones we harvested this time are: the right arm bone of a 70,000-year-old Boundless Poisonous Python, the left arm bone of a 50,000-year-old Mandala Snake King, and the left arm bone of a 40,000-year-old Black Jade Mamba."
"I was very lucky. I specifically sought out powerful poison-attribute soul beasts in Sunset Forest, using corrosive poison to slowly dissolve the soul bones I obtained. However, this time I wiped out all the poison-attribute soul beasts in Sunset Forest."
As Dugu Bo spoke, although he had only been away for two or three days, it did not take him long to deal with each soul beast. The strongest, the Boundless Poisonous Python, lasted only a quarter of an hour, and the rest were reduced to ashes in less than a quarter of an hour.
After hearing Dugu Bo's introduction, Li Luochen's mouth dropped open. They were all top-grade ten-thousand-year soul bones, and there was even a seventy-thousand-year soul bone. This was outrageous! Was Dugu Bo really that lucky?
"So, how does Grandpa plan to distribute it?"
Li Luochen pointed out the key issue: how to allocate them is a problem, since they are all top-grade soul bones.
"I intended to give Yanyan two high-age soul bones, but judging from your gaze, you seem to have other ideas?"
Dugu Bo, being a doting granddaughter, did indeed want to give Dugu Yan the best, but he hesitated when he saw Li Luochen's gaze.
"No, Grandpa, one piece is enough for Yan Yan. You should be able to advance further if you absorb two pieces. I'm already very lucky to have gotten one piece. I can't keep any more than that."
Dugu Yan was perfectly clear-headed at this moment. She knew her own limitations. It would be abnormal if a Great Soul Master possessing two Soul Bones wasn't killed to extract them. Even the title of Poison Douluo was useless in the face of the Blood River Treasure.
"That's right, Yanzi is right. I don't recommend that Yanzi absorb two soul bones, and I suggest that she absorb one of the two lower-aged left arm bones. If a Great Soul Master possesses two soul bones, he will surely die."
Moreover, one soul bone is enough to deal with the toxins in Yanzi's body now. However, the toxins in your body are more numerous and potent, so one soul bone may not be enough. Using two soul bones together would be safer and would also allow you, Grandpa, to take another step forward.
"This is suitable for our next step. I suggest you absorb that 70,000-year-old soul bone. Once you become stronger, you can continue searching for more soul bones."
Li Luochen's words also awakened Dugu Bo, who realized that the Soul Bone Blood River Treasure could easily harm his granddaughter, and only by becoming stronger could he protect them.
"Alright, I will absorb two soul bones. Yan Yan, you should absorb this 40,000-year-old black jade Black Mamba left arm bone. That Black Mamba is much more powerful than that Mandala Snake King."
Its soul essence should be more powerful than that of the Mandala Serpent King, and Grandpa believes it can unleash a formidable attack.
Dugu Bo recalled the Black Mamba's powerful crescent-shaped venomous slash. "Yes, Grandpa."
This time, Dugu Yan did not refuse. She knew that the soul bone could save her life. She then took the black left arm bone and began to absorb it.
Dugu Bo sat cross-legged and absorbed two soul bones: the right arm bone of a 70,000-year-old Boundless Poisonous Python and the left arm bone of a 50,000-year-old Mandragora Snake King. Perhaps these bones would allow him to advance further.
Even titled Douluo would covet a soul bone that is over 50,000 years old. A soul bone that is over 50,000 years old can provide a titled Douluo with great help, not only by giving them an extra soul skill, but also by greatly improving their physical attributes.
Dugu Bo was originally at the peak of level 91, and had been stuck at this level for several years. This time, with the help of the soul power in the soul bone, he broke through to level 92 in one fell swoop, and even reached the late stage of level 92. Level 93 was just around the corner.
At this moment, Dugu Yan absorbed the soul bone, and the energy it brought her was extremely powerful. Her soul power, which was originally level 28, directly increased to level 30. She would know how much she had increased once she obtained her third soul ring.
Next, after the grandfather and granddaughter finished absorbing the soul bone, Dugu Bo planned to capture the soul beast needed for Dugu Yan's third soul ring. Originally, it would have been enough to capture one that was over a thousand years old.
Li Luochen asked Dugu Bo to capture a two-thousand-year-old soul beast, whose soul bone could greatly improve a soul master's physical attributes. Dugu Yan absorbed a forty-thousand-year-old soul bone, so she should be able to absorb soul rings beyond her limits.
After listening to Li Luochen's explanation, Dugu Bo went out and caught a purple venomous snake that was exactly two thousand years old. After Dugu Yan absorbed it, her soul power reached the peak of level thirty-two. The Black Mamba soul bone brought her a two-and-a-half-level increase in soul power.
With this, Dugu Yan successfully became a Soul Master, and the next step was the busy time of refining pills, while Li Luochen bled.
Dugu Yan and Dugu Bo forced their snake venom into their soul bones. Dugu Yan only took three days to force the venom into her soul bones.
Dugu Bo will need half a month.
Although Dugu Yan's eyes were still emerald green after the detoxification, they had faded considerably. When Li Luochen took Dugu Yan's pulse and probed her body with his soul power, most of the toxins were gone, but some residual toxins remained.
Moreover, due to prolonged exposure to toxins, the body may suffer some hidden injuries that require gradual conditioning.
It is worth mentioning that Dugu Yan's third soul skill is still Azure Scale Purple Poison, but its power has increased a lot. The soul bone skill of her left arm bone is Black Mamba Poison Slash, which unleashes a black snake venom slash.
It is extremely corrosive, and because Dugu Yan forced her own Jade Scale Serpent venom into her soul bone, an even more powerful venom was born. The originally black, highly poisonous slash turned dark green, containing a mixed venom of Black Mamba corrosive poison and Jade Scale Serpent venom.
Dugu Bo's soul bone skill is quite powerful. The skill granted by the right arm bone of the 70,000-year-old Boundless Poisonous Python is an amplification skill, increasing all poison attributes by 200%. Now, Dugu Bo's poison can already threaten titled Douluo of the same level.
Moreover, once he forces the poison into the bone of his right arm, the Azure Scale Serpent King's poison released later will be even more terrifying.
The left arm bone of the 50,000-year-old Mandragora Serpent King has relatively ordinary skills. It releases multiple snake shadows to entangle the opponent and release potent poison, which is a control-type soul skill.
If someone is controlled by the soul skill of the left arm bone and then comes into contact with Dugu Bo's snake venom, even a level 95 Super Douluo would be seriously injured.
