Douluo: Wuhun Eats Iron Beast, Never Become a Slave

Chapter 80: The Far West, the Temple of Sin (Temple of Medusa)
"You want to hunt a Medusa as your spirit ring?" Dugu Bo said in a daze, "Didn't you raise a Ten-Heart Begonia as your next spirit ring?"

Zhao Mu said, "It will take some time for the Ten-Heart Begonia to mature, and it's been quite some time since I reached level 50 in terms of soul power. If I wait any longer, I'm afraid someone will accuse me of being a low-level person!"

Dugu Bo could understand Zhao Mu's feelings: "Medusa is indeed a strong soul beast species, but it is not easy to hunt a Medusa soul beast and obtain its soul ring. Otherwise, I would not be the only one on the continent to obtain a Medusa soul ring."

"Is it because there are too few of them to find, or is there some other reason?" Zhao Mu asked.

Speaking of Medusa, Dugu Bo's face became very serious and solemn: "There are not many Medusas, but they are not difficult to find because they live in a specific area."

"where?"

Seeing that Zhao Mu was really interested, Dugu Bo could only speak the truth: "In the far west, the Temple of Sin, also known as the Temple of Medusa!"

"All the Medusa soul beasts on the continent are gathered there."

"The far west? Is it far away?" Zhao Mu asked.

Dugu Bo looked up at Zhao Mu: "Is it far? It'll only take two months to walk there and back!"

Two months?
Then my Ten-Heart Begonia must have waited for it to bloom.

"No, second brother, are you serious? You don't really want to go to the Temple of Medusa, do you?" Dugu Bo seemed very reluctant and was quite afraid of the Temple of Medusa.

Once Zhao Mu makes up his mind about something, it is difficult for him to change it.

"Are there any other soul beasts on the continent that have the attribute of time?"

Hearing Zhao Mu's question, Dugu Bo shook his head: "Maybe there is, but I haven't heard of it yet."

"In fact, even the Medusa spirit ring can obtain the time-freezing spirit skill. This is something I only discovered after absorbing it."

"My martial spirit is the Jade Phosphorus Serpent. Initially, I only considered that Medusa, as the king of snakes, the spirit ring obtained by hunting her should not be too bad. As for obtaining the spirit skill Time Freezing, I had not thought of it beforehand."

Listening to Dugu Bo's story, Zhao Mu could easily hear the satisfaction in Dugu Bo's words.

Although it was only the eighth soul skill of ten thousand years, the eighth soul skill, time freezing, combined with his ninth soul skill, was enough to destroy a city! (The original novel mentioned this).

"What do you think, big brother? Come with me and give it a try! Do you dare to go with me?" Zhao Mu asked Dugu Bo solemnly.

Although his strength was enough to defeat someone like Qin Ming, Zhao Mu still had no idea about the Medusa Temple that Dugu Bo mentioned, so he naturally needed Dugu Bo very much.

First of all, Dugu Bo had been there and successfully obtained a spirit ring, so he had experience.

Secondly, it is Dugu Bo’s own strength. Today’s Dugu Bo is no longer the titled goalkeeper he used to be.

Seeing that Zhao Mu still insisted, Dugu Bo, who had already understood Zhao Mu's temper through their time together, knew that persuasion was futile, so he agreed.

Moreover, the Medusa Temple is dangerous, but as the king of snakes, the Medusa soul ring is indeed very cost-effective.

"It just so happens that Yanyan is away for training, so I can accompany you to the Medusa Temple. However, I have to make it clear in advance that although I can accompany you, I cannot guarantee that you will gain anything."

Dugu Bo's expression became complicated, as if he recalled the time when he went to the Medusa Temple to hunt Medusa.

"Although there are not many Medusas around the Medusa Temple, there are still more than ten or twenty of them. Their ages and levels of cultivation vary, but there are still several Medusas that are over ten thousand years old." "How old is the oldest Medusa?" Zhao Mu asked. After all, if he really wanted to go, he naturally had to find out the situation of the strongest Medusa first.

After all, most of the time, the strongest one plays a decisive role.

Dugu Bo thought about it.

"It should be more than 90,000 years... Now, I'm not sure..."

"..."

Hearing this, Zhao Mu was stunned.

"Brother, you can't do it for me. When you went there before, it was more than 90,000 years ago. Isn't it still more than 90,000 years now? Could it be that she has broken through to 100,000 years in these years?"

Dugu Bo finally realized what had happened and realized that he had made a fool of himself. He quickly asked, "What if he died?"

It is very difficult for a 90,000-year-old soul beast to die naturally unless there is an accident, especially in the desolate land in the far west where there is no one living and few living creatures.

Dugu Bo then confirmed, "A hundred thousand year old soul beast has a unique aura. I'm absolutely certain that the ninety thousand year old Medusa is still a long way from being a hundred thousand years old. It's impossible for it to be a hundred thousand years old now."

"Since it's not 100,000 years old, then you have nothing to fear. A Titled Douluo can fight head-on with even a 100,000-year-old soul beast, let alone a 90,000-year-old one."

Dugu Bo couldn't help but give Zhao Mu a cold look.

"If it's really that easy, then why haven't others succeeded in hunting down Medusa?"

"Could there be other reasons?" Zhao Mu asked.

Dugu Bo gave a detailed introduction to the Temple of Medusa and Medusa.

"The Medusas in the Medusa Temple all possess the same power as the Medusa Gaze. Anyone who looks directly into Medusa's face will be turned to stone."

"Although some powerful spirit masters can obtain information about their surroundings without relying on their eyes, once a person is used to observing with their eyes, suddenly not using them will inevitably affect their combat effectiveness."

"And there are so many Medusas in the temple, you can't guarantee you won't accidentally catch a glimpse of one's face."

"Besides that, there's the Medusa Temple itself! Inside the Medusa Temple is a statue of Medusa, worshipped by all Medusas. It possesses divine power. It's said that this power can be harnessed by the Medusas themselves."

"It is precisely because of these difficulties that so few people have been able to successfully hunt Medusa over the years. Back then, I was ambitious and determined to go. Fortunately, I accidentally encountered a ten-thousand-year-old Medusa outside the Medusa Temple. If I had really entered the Medusa Temple, I'm afraid I would have been in great danger."

"Can you use divine power?" Zhao Mu asked, "Are you sure?"

There are indeed gods in the Douluo World, so Zhao Mu is not an atheist.

Dugu Bo shook his head. "I haven't been deep into the Medusa Temple, so I don't know for sure. It's just a rumor. Perhaps the soul masters who have actually seen Medusa use her divine power have turned to stone. After all, there are many stone statues of soul masters in the temple. They must have been transformed by soul masters who tried to enter the Medusa Temple."

"So I need you to promise me first that if we encounter an unstoppable danger, we must not stay for even a moment and must leave immediately. Medusa won't be away from the temple for too long, so even if they chase us, they won't be able to pursue us for long."
