Douluo Continent, my martial soul is a mushroom.

Chapter 84 Conflict, Physical Reconciliation

Chi Ping first came to Tian Dou City during the Elite Tournament. He stayed there for four months, but the mycelium still hadn't fully spread out.

After the Elite Tournament ended, he stayed in Tiandou City for nearly two years. The mycelium spread out, but his perception range was not far enough, and he did not travel around, so he naturally could not find the Ice and Fire Yin-Yang Eyes that were nearly two hundred miles away.

……

"This poisonous miasma..."

Outside the valley, Xue Qinghe stared into deep thought at the poison array set up by Dugu Bo.

"What's wrong?"

The poison array covers a wide area, so Chi Ping needs to find a suitable location to teleport directly into the Ice and Fire Yin-Yang Well.

Xue Qinghe, "Is this the interesting place you were talking about?"

Chi Ping nodded. "It's a valley behind this poisonous miasma. I have a feeling that there might be something related to the gods inside."

Xue Qinghe: "Is anyone there?"

Chi Ping asked in confusion, "How do you know? I did sense a Title Douluo, but I felt he posed no threat to us. He couldn't stop me if I wanted to run. Moreover, he seemed to have encountered trouble, his cultivation went awry, and he suffered a qi deviation."

Xue Qinghe sighed, "That should be Dugu Bo, the Poison Douluo who is a tribute to the empire."

Chi Ping was somewhat surprised and stopped his investigation. "Shall we still go in?"

Xue Qinghe waved his hand, "No problem. He's biased towards Xue Xing, so he's not my ally."

Chi Ping remained silent. "Even if you're not an ally, you can't just make decisions for someone else. Trespassing on someone else's property is unethical."

"That's not what you said before."

"I'm just looking, I'm not going to do anything."

"You're just being stubborn!"

……

Beside the Ice and Fire Spring, Dugu Bo gradually suppressed the rampant toxins within his body.

Hey~

He sighed, a look of sorrow appearing on his already aged face.

"The attacks are becoming more and more frequent, I don't know how much longer these old bones of mine can hold on... Yan Yan..."

Those who cultivate poisons, without a sufficiently profound lineage or extraordinary talent, can easily perish while practicing.

Dugu Bo had no family; he earned everything through hard work and struggle. The deeper one's mastery of poison techniques, the easier it is to die—that's how his son died.

If it weren't for his exceptional talent and the discovery of the Ice and Fire Yin-Yang Well, Dugu Bo would probably have died from the poison long ago.

However, unable to find a way to treat the toxins, Dugu Bo estimated that he wouldn't be able to hold on for long. This was one of the reasons why he brought Dugu Yan and Yu Tianheng, the eldest grandson of the Blue Lightning Tyrannosaurus Rex family, together.

Besides using the power of the Blue Lightning Tyrannosaurus Rex family to help Dugu Yan find a way to counteract the poison, it also ensures that Dugu Yan has a powerful backer when he can no longer hold on and must pass on the Ice and Fire Yin-Yang Eye to her.

A flash of silver light streaked across the space.

"who!"

Dugu Bo's expression changed instantly. He roared in fury, unleashing his powerful aura without reservation, which whipped up a gale that knocked down the surrounding flowers, plants, and trees.

"Your Excellency Poison Douluo, I meant no offense. I merely sensed this place by chance..."

Chi Ping stood in front of Xue Qinghe, trying to explain that Xue Qinghe's cultivation was only at the Soul King level, and he couldn't withstand Dugu Bo's aura.

"Go to hell!"

Dugu Bo didn't want to hear any explanations. He activated his Martial Soul, his Soul Bone Skill, and Medusa's Gaze!

A beam of petrifying light shot out, and Dugu Bo showed no mercy, aiming to kill the two of them.

With a thought, space shifts.

The petrification ray is energy, not actual light, so you can avoid it.

His killing move missed, Dugu Bo immediately activated his senses and simultaneously moved away from the Ice and Fire Yin-Yang Well, entering the poison array. The power of the Ice and Fire Yin-Yang Well would suppress his poison, and coupled with the need to protect this place, he could only exert less than 6% of his power.

Outside the poisonous array.

"As expected, we got beaten up." Chi Ping sighed and said to Xue Qinghe, "You wait here, I'll try to negotiate with Dugu Bo."

Xue Qinghe frowned slightly. "Be careful."

"I know."

As he spoke, another flash of silver light appeared, and Chi Ping teleported away.

Dugu Bo stood ready in the poison array, silently pondering how Chi Ping and Xue Qinghe, these two trespassers, had managed to evade his soul bone skill.

Qi and Blood Six Styles - Iron Block - Fist!

A faint silver light flickered in the air as an iron fist struck Dugu Bo in the chest. Caught off guard, Dugu Bo staggered back dozens of steps.

Dugu Bo was furious. He gathered his soul power and activated his soul skill, condensing the emerald poison on his arm.

However, just as he was about to deal with Chi Ping, Chi Ping had already teleported away.

"A spatial soul skill?"

Dugu Bo had a vague suspicion.

Dugu Bo gathered his soul power and assumed a defensive posture.

With a flash of silver light behind him, Chi Ping kicked Dugu Bo away and then teleported away again.

Dugu Bo was furious, but this also confirmed his suspicions.

—The next step is to figure out the range and limitations of teleportation, and then use Time Freeze to kill him.

Dugu Bo thought to himself, his killing intent palpable.

But... is it really that smooth?

Dugu Bo was within Chi Ping's perception range, and Chi Ping could intuitively gather information about him. Any unusual movements Dugu Bo made were generally impossible to miss by Chi Ping.

Time Freeze is the eighth soul skill, which consumes a huge amount of energy and can freeze time within a radius of several thousand square meters. However, Chi Ping's maximum teleportation distance is 2 kilometers, so Time Freeze cannot restrain him at all.

……

One hour later.

"You brat! I admit defeat!"

Dugu Bo, his face bruised and swollen, roared in exasperation.

After taking more than 300 punches and using Time Freeze twice, even if he tried to be brave, he realized that he had no way to deal with Chi Ping.

Moreover, Ikebe only used his fists, not swords, and did not aim for a fatal blow, which is enough to demonstrate Ikebe's goodwill.

bump.

"I know you bastard can hear me, get out here!" Dugu Bo roared after a long silence.

Bump.

"Can't you even get it out yourself?!"

The mycelial tentacles, unable to bear it any longer, pulled Dugu Bo off balance.

"What the hell is this!" Dugu Bo was about to get angry, but then he noticed that the mycelium on the ground had formed a line of words.

"At least the senior is finally listening to what I'm saying."

"Who are you people?!" Dugu Bo asked in surprise and doubt.

"My name is Chi Ping, the vice-captain of the champion team of the previous All-Continent Advanced Soul Master Academy Elite Tournament. Accompanying me is Prince Xue Qinghe of the Heaven Dou Clan."

Dugu Bo, "What do you want from me?!"

"I wasn't looking for it intentionally; I just happened to discover a special aura here, so I came to investigate."

Dugu Bo felt his anger rising again. "Finished reading? If you've finished, get the hell out of here!"

Chi Ping and Xue Qinghe appeared instantly, both dressed in special fully enclosed suits. Their voices were muffled as they said, "We haven't even seen it yet. Senior Dugu, why are you in such a hurry?"

Upon seeing the two appear, Dugu Bo was immediately filled with rage, but he quickly suppressed it.

"Playing tricks!" Dugu Bo said sarcastically.

Chi Ping's tone was strange. "Your senior isn't doing much better, is he? The toxin levels in the air are off the charts! I wonder how long this protective suit will last."

Dugu Bo is most skilled in using poison, and without taking precautions, Chi Ping would not dare to appear directly in front of him with Xue Qinghe.

"snort!"

Dugu Bo snorted coldly, without denying it.

"Let's not waste any more time, Senior Dugu. Take us to that spring. Perhaps I can see something that you don't even know."

"Come with me," Dugu Bo said, feeling frustrated.
