Chapter 78: Dugu Bo's Fury!
This sudden golden light pillar caused all the dragon souls to fall into shock.
"It actually smashed through the spatial barriers of the small world..."
The Fire Dragon King looked at the golden light pillar connecting heaven and earth and said in confusion, "Such a phenomenon, yet it lacks the aura of those damnable deities from the Divine Realm."
"Behind this kid, perhaps there stands a deity from another star domain."
The Water Dragon King twisted its slender neck and slowly said, "Hundreds of millions of years ago, the Dragon God once traversed many star domains in the universe and discovered many different Divine Realms. Doesn't he believe in the Streetlamp God? This kind of strange godly position definitely does not exist in the Douluo Divine Realm."
Hearing the Water Dragon King's analysis, the Fire Dragon King nodded. His gaze looking at Zhou Chen was filled with inexplicable meaning.
At this time, with the help of the system, Zhou Chen had already absorbed the Blue Gold Soul Ring as his third Soul Ring and recovered his original strength.
Now, he was absorbing the Red Gold Soul Ring condensed by the Fire Dragon King.
"Ding... Fourth Soul Ring match successful."
Accompanied by the system's notification sound, massive Soul Power surged from the million-year Red Gold Soul Ring, instantly filling Zhou Chen's body. His Soul Power also rose at lightning speed!
Level forty-one, level forty-two, level forty-three... Level fifty!
It was not until Zhou Chen's strength rose to Level 50, only one step away from becoming a Soul King, that the Soul Power gradually stopped surging and was instead completely absorbed by the Xuanyuan Sword.
As Zhou Chen's second Martial Soul, the Xuanyuan Sword did not have Soul Rings, but its demand for Soul Power was extremely huge. Every time Zhou Chen absorbed a million-year God-level Soul Ring, the excess Soul Power would be completely swallowed by the Xuanyuan Sword.
This was also good. At least he did not have to release the Soul Power like six years ago, causing all forces on the Douluo Continent to tremble.
He still preferred to be low-key.
Having thoroughly absorbed the fourth Soul Ring, Zhou Chen opened his eyes. Looking at the Water and Fire Dragon Kings suspended in mid-air, he said, "Thank you, both of you, for helping me break through to Soul Ancestor. It seems we can discuss the matter of the True Dragon Soul Bone now..."
Prior to this, in the outside world.
Somewhere in the Sunset Forest.
Above the corpse of a Purple Smoke Serpent Soul Beast more than two meters long, a purple thousand-year Soul Ring was floating.
Beside it, the Poison Douluo, Dugu Bo, was looking worriedly at his granddaughter, Dugu Yan, exhorting, "Yan'er, a two-thousand-five-hundred-year Purple Smoke Serpent Soul Ring is not that easy to absorb."
"When Grandpa rose to Level 30 back then, I only absorbed a two-thousand-two-hundred-year Soul Ring, yet I almost exploded and died from being overfilled by the Soul Power within. Therefore, you must be careful."
"I know, Grandpa."
Hearing her grandfather's exhortation, Dugu Yan did not dare to be careless. First, she sat cross-legged on the ground, concentrated her mind, and adjusted the Soul Power in her body before beginning to absorb the Purple Smoke Serpent's Soul Ring.
"Ah—"
Just as she started absorbing, Dugu Yan let out a groan of pain. The Soul Power contained in the two-thousand-five-hundred-year Soul Ring oppressed her meridians and physical body until they were overwhelmed!
Seeing this scene, Dugu Bo, whose heart ached for his granddaughter, hurriedly extended his hand and pressed it against Dugu Yan's back. Using his massive Titled Douluo-level power, he carefully protected his granddaughter's body from being burst open by the Soul Ring's power.
After a long time, Dugu Yan finally absorbed the third Soul Ring, breaking through two levels in a row and becoming a Level 32 Soul Elder.
With her naturally lively personality, she immediately held Dugu Bo's hand happily and shook it, saying, "Grandpa, let's go quickly to the Imperial Palace to eat roast swan!"
"Good, good, good! We will go right now."
Dugu Bo laughed helplessly twice. The Swan was the inherited Martial Soul of the Heaven Dou Imperial Family, and also the totem of the Heaven Dou Empire. This girl could eat anything, yet every time she went to the Imperial Palace, she insisted on eating roast swan.
Fortunately, Xue Ye was a magnanimous emperor and never fussed about this matter.
Shaking his head, just as Dugu Bo was preparing to take his granddaughter out of the Sunset Forest and head to the Heaven Dou Imperial Palace, suddenly, a golden light pillar descended from the sky in the distance!
This golden light pillar connected heaven and earth, possessing majestic power, clearly visible within a radius of hundreds of miles!
"Grandpa, look!"
Dugu Yan just happened to see that magnificent golden light pillar and shouted immediately.
"That is..."
Dugu Bo turned around. With just one look, his expression changed drastically!
Because the direction where the light pillar landed was precisely his lair for planting spiritual herbs, the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well located in the Sun and Moon Mountain!
Of course, Dugu Bo at this time had not yet met Tang San and did not know that place was called the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well. However, the importance of that place to Dugu Bo had already reached a point concerning his very life and property!
One must know that the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well not only nourished items but also had extremely special effects on the human body.
If ordinary people dared to stay near the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well, within a short time, their bodies would be impacted by the two completely different spiritual qis of water and fire, causing them to directly explode and die.
But for someone like Dugu Bo, who was full of deadly poison yet possessed powerful strength, the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well offered enormous benefits.
Because extreme heat and extreme cold both had restraining effects on poisons. With the suppression of the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well, Dugu Bo could continuously suppress the deadly poison in his body from acting up.
All along, although Dugu Bo's poison was peerless in the world, he had unspeakable troubles.
His poison originated from his own Martial Soul, the Jade Phosphor Serpent. The deadly poison produced by this Martial Soul would not only poison others but also poison himself!
Dugu Bo's son died from poisoning himself because he could not withstand the deadly poison of the Jade Phosphor Serpent Martial Soul.
As for his daughter-in-law, the Jade Phosphor Serpent poison invaded her heart veins while she was pregnant with Dugu Yan. Not long after giving birth to Dugu Yan, she passed away.
Now, he only had one granddaughter left.
If the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well developed problems because of that golden light pillar, not only would his reliance for saving his life cease to exist, but his granddaughter would also have no future.
Thinking of this, Dugu Bo's heart was already extremely furious!
He had to go back and take a look. No matter who it was, if they dared to destroy the place that prolonged his life, he would make that person wish they were dead!!
"Yan'er, we are not going to the Heaven Dou Imperial Palace for now. Come with Grandpa!"
Saying this, Dugu Bo suddenly grabbed Dugu Yan by her collar and tucked her under his arm. Immediately, his entire person turned into a beam of dark green light and shot toward the direction of the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well at extremely high speed!
