Chapter 158 – Arrival at the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well, I Am Lin Yu!
The Sunset Forest was filled with towering trees stretching as far as the eye could see.
Looking down and ahead from the sky, it resembled a vast ocean of green.
And in Lin Yu's field of vision...
He saw a mountain peak shrouded in mist standing tall before him.
Surrounding this mountain, dense dark purple poisonous miasma was rising from the forest floor!
Lin Yu could immediately tell—
That mountain was definitely the location of the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well.
Otherwise, there wouldn't be so much poisonous miasma lingering around. This was clearly a poison formation set up by Dugu Bo!
Although the dark purple miasma was extremely toxic—
So much so that even a Soul Saint-level spirit master might die if they recklessly tried to pass through—
It didn't matter, because Lin Yu could fly.
Even though the forest near the mountain of the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well was covered with a poison formation,
The traps of the formation were mainly on the ground.
And the poisonous miasma that could rise into the air didn't reach the height at which Lin Yu was flying.
So Lin Yu flew directly through this poisonous zone.
However, passing through the miasma-filled forest was only the second step.
The third step was landing on the mountain where the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well was located.
Lin Yu had relied on his ability to fly to get through the poisonous forest,
But in the Douluo Continent, there were also spirit masters who possessed the ability to fly.
Naturally, Dugu Bo had also prepared traps for these kinds of spirit masters.
And those traps were located on the mountain of the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well itself.
Dugu Bo had most likely set a poison formation at the top of the mountain too.
Because within the continuously rising white mist of the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well, Lin Yu could faintly see blackish-purple and greenish toxic mist interweaving with the white fog above.
Although the color was faint, as the final line of defense that Dugu Bo had prepared, Lin Yu did not doubt its toxicity in the slightest!
But Lin Yu possessed the Pure World White Lotus martial soul, and the purifying light it released could cleanse all impurities.
So no matter how strong the poison was, it meant nothing to Lin Yu!
Thus, as he was about to descend onto the mountain of the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well—
Lin Yu immediately summoned the Chaos Green Lotus martial soul and activated his second soul skill, splitting off the Pure World White Lotus.
Then, under the protection of the purifying light released by the Pure World White Lotus, Lin Yu pierced through the mist at the mountaintop and descended like a bolt of blinding thunder directly into the valley of the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well!
Bang!
With a roar of thunder, a loud explosion rang out.
Sensing that something unknown had crashed into his medicine garden,
Dugu Bo, who had been cultivating not far from the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well, suddenly opened his eyes. He stood up instantly and looked in Lin Yu's direction, shouting:
"Who?!"
Through his Martial Soul's Spirit Eyes, he saw Dugu Bo standing amid the mist, and Lin Yu couldn't help but smile. He activated his fifth soul skill again, instantly summoning the Heaven and Earth Cauldron martial soul and used it to emit a brown light that devoured the surrounding white mist into the cauldron.
Moments later, the mist cleared.
Standing before Dugu Bo was a young man around sixteen years old, with long black hair, handsome features, and a cold aura (already in disguise). Dugu Bo narrowed his eyes slightly, his heart filled with doubt and surprise.
A boy of fifteen or sixteen? Impossible!
A kid like this couldn't have possibly broken through his poison formation!
Thinking this, Dugu Bo frowned and looked around, seemingly searching for powerful individuals who might have accompanied Lin Yu.
"Senior Dugu Bo, no need to look. It's just me alone."
Seeing Dugu Bo's suspicious behavior, Lin Yu smiled lightly.
"Young man, who are you? You actually know my name—Dugu Bo—and still dare to trespass in my medicine garden? Aren't you afraid of death?"
Hearing Lin Yu say he was alone, Dugu Bo naturally didn't believe it, but that didn't stop him from raising his hand to release Bi Phosphorus Poison, enough to corrode the ground beneath them. With a cold face, he threatened Lin Yu.
"Heh, afraid? Since I came, I obviously have no fear!"
Lin Yu scoffed at Dugu Bo's threat, then got straight to the point.
"Let me introduce myself first—my name is Lin Yu. I believe Senior Dugu Bo has heard of me. I came here today for your medicine garden, and I also want you to submit to me."
"If Senior agrees, I can cure the Bi Phosphorus Poison afflicting your family!"
"You're that Lin Yu?!"
Upon hearing Lin Yu's introduction, Dugu Bo's pupils instantly shrank as a storm surged in his heart.
He never expected that the Lin Yu who so many forces on the Douluo Continent were searching for would come to him of his own accord.
But thinking about it carefully, it wasn't all that surprising.
After all, the other party had made a wish and learned about the past, present, and future of the Douluo Continent. He likely knew of the existence of the medicine garden, and with the immortal herbs around it, there's no way he'd pass it up.
Judging by how cautious he appeared in the livestream—
This time, Lin Yu had likely come with absolute confidence.
For a moment, Dugu Bo's heart sank.
Indeed, he desperately wanted to find a way to remove the Bi Phosphorus Poison from both himself and his granddaughter, Dugu Yan. But he would never hand over his precious medicine garden as a price.
Let alone lead his entire family to submit to someone else!
"Hmph! You want my medicine garden and even want me to submit to you? Just because you claim to have a cure for my Bi Phosphorus Poison, you think I'll believe you?"
Although his mind was racing with thoughts, Dugu Bo still snorted coldly and replied.
"Heh, that's not important. Just curing the poison surely isn't enough for you to submit, right, Senior? I'd probably need to defeat you first, wouldn't I?"
Staring at Dugu Bo, Lin Yu smiled faintly, already prepared to fight.
In the original novel, Tang San also helped remove the Bi Phosphorus Poison from Dugu Bo and Dugu Yan.
But all that did was earn Dugu Bo's favor, making him a guest elder of Shrek Academy.
It wasn't until later, when Tang San became strong enough, that Dugu Bo agreed to join the Tang Sect.
This clearly showed that Dugu Bo respected strength above all else!
So, to make Dugu Bo submit, he had to defeat him first—
Then use the means to cure the Bi Phosphorus Poison to pressure and lure him into submission. That was the best way to subdue Dugu Bo!
"Heh, kid, you sure seem to know this old man well!"
Hearing Lin Yu's words, Dugu Bo narrowed his eyes, even more convinced that Lin Yu must have made a wish in the livestream and learned about the past, present, and future. Otherwise, how could he know him so thoroughly?
"But with your strength, defeating me won't be so simple. Today, this old man will show you what the power of a Titled Douluo really means!"
"Bi Phosphorus Serpent Emperor, possess!"
With a cold shout, Dugu Bo soared into the air—
Then summoned his martial soul, the Bi Phosphorus Serpent Emperor, entering martial soul possession.
As his body began to change, nine soul rings—yellow, yellow, purple, purple, black, black, black, black, black—rose beneath his feet and circled around him.
At the same time, Dugu Bo activated his seventh soul skill: Martial Soul True Body.
Bathed in a blinding dark green light, he instantly transformed into a massive and elongated Bi Phosphorus Serpent Emperor, letting out a sky-shaking roar as he spewed out a torrent of deep green Bi Phosphorus Poison from his mouth.
