Condensing Poison Pills

Chapter 83 Condensing Poison Pills (4K)

In a desolate and uninhabited area on the far northern snowfield, Shen Hanyu and Dugu Bo landed one after the other.

A surge of powerful spiritual energy swept across a five-kilometer radius. After receiving feedback, Shen Hanyu raised an eyebrow and said:

"There are only a few thousand-year-old soul beasts roaming around here; the rest are only ten or a hundred years old, so they can be ignored."

Dugu Bo also sensed the terrifying mental energy fluctuations emanating from Shen Hanyu just moments ago. His eyes narrowed slightly, somewhat shocked, but he said nothing.

"Young Shen, are you sure you're confident? I'm willing to entrust my life to you."

Dugu Bo asked in a deep voice.

Although Shen Hanyu's method was flawless from any perspective, to be honest, he was still unsure.

Shen Hanyu smiled, and the eight spirit rings neatly arranged beneath his feet slowly rose. In an instant, the terrifying power brought by the rich golden and red light caused the surrounding airflow to become chaotic.

Dugu Bo suddenly clenched his hands behind his back, his gaze became somewhat vacant, and even his face, which still looked somewhat old, trembled slightly.

"Although I sometimes choose to risk my life, I prefer to do things that I'm confident about."

Shen Hanyu stepped forward and patted Dugu Bo on the shoulder, saying something comforting.

Dugu Bo looked at the spirit ring configuration flashing beneath Shen Hanyu's feet and said in disbelief:

"You went to hunt down a 100,000-year-old soul beast? And your seventh soul ring, how is that possible..."

Shen Hanyu was somewhat helpless. This was not the second or third era of the Douluo Continent. Such a configuration of spirit rings would shock the whole world. It was far from the era of the third era, where any titled Douluo had a black base with a bunch of red ones, and occasionally even a lot of gold or ferocious beast level spirit rings.

"I went to hunt down a 100,000-year-old soul beast, but I have many secrets. You should try to understand them yourself. Now is not the time to talk about these things."

Shen Hanyu said, and at the same time, the platinum seventh soul ring under his feet lit up. A huge figure formed of energy appeared behind Shen Hanyu, and a set of armor formed of energy also appeared on Shen Hanyu's body. His aura reached its peak in an instant, surpassing Dugu Bo.

"Old Biden, now is not the time to talk about this. There are truly terrifying beings in the far north. Let's finish this quickly. If we provoke those guys, we might both be finished."

Shen Hanyu urged him on, as he really didn't want to fight either the Ice Emperor or the Snow Emperor right now. If it were that silly Titan Snow Demon King, he wouldn't mind adding another soul ring to his second soul ring.

Dugu Bo also came to his senses. He didn't have time to investigate who the terrifying being Shen Hanyu was talking about was. He decisively took out a jade box from his soul tool. The worry and hesitation in his eyes slowly disappeared, replaced by unparalleled determination.

As a snow-white, crystal-clear immortal herb appeared in Dugu Bo's hand, a faint fragrance began to waft through the air. Dugu Bo's hand also turned uncontrollably dark green, and the surrounding toxins began to surge violently. A dense green mist drifted out, melting the snow wherever it passed, and cracking sounds filled the air.

A pale blue domain appeared on the Frostfire Spear, and the extremely low temperature of the air spread out, slowly enveloping a radius of fifty meters around Dugu Bo. He could not completely prevent the poison from spreading out, so he could only try to reduce the toxicity and dilute the poisonous mist.

Although it is somewhat unethical to do this, it is also out of necessity. The far north has always been sparsely populated, and most of the soul beasts here only live in places where there are necessary resources to survive. The place that Shen Hanyu and his group chose is a truly desolate place that neither soul beasts nor humans are willing to set foot in.

If some foolish soul beast were to venture out looking for thrills, Shen Hanyu would be truly helpless. After all, soul beasts have an instinct to seek good fortune and avoid danger, and generally, they won't approach such dangerous places unless they're sick.

Dugu Bo felt the boiling venom of the Azure Phosphorus Snake in his body, and with a grit of his teeth, he swallowed the entire Snow-White Swan Kiss plant.

Shen Hanyu felt a chill run down his spine. Although his body had been tempered by ice and fire and he had gained immunity to all poisons, and he also had the ultimate ice protection, he was still somewhat stunned when faced with the Bilin Snake Venom, which was close to the ultimate poison, under the full force of Dugu Bo.

This was only temporary, because after Dugu Bo consumed the Snow Swan Kiss, his body suddenly swelled up, and all his skin turned a deep, dark green. A thick and terrifying poisonous mist emanated from his body, like a poisonous gas balloon that could explode at any moment.

Shen Hanyu was startled, then quickly shrunk his domain until it could only contain Dugu Bo. The energy of the extreme ice was frantically fighting against the poison gas. Shen Hanyu shouted:

"Old Biden! The toxins throughout your body have begun to surge violently. Now is the time to draw all the toxins from your body into your dantian and condense and compress them. I will do everything in my power to help you!"

Dugu Bo's swollen body remained silent, but Shen Hanyu could clearly feel the poisonous gas and toxins in Dugu Bo's body being drawn by something, rushing madly towards Dugu Bo's dantian.

Shen Hanyu's face lit up with joy. After adding another layer of extreme ice protection around himself, he placed a palm on Dugu Bo's back. The pure and clean ice attribute energy helped Dugu Bo suppress the toxins that had increased a thousandfold, while also helping to compress the toxins that had entered Dugu Bo's dantian.

Under the full suppression of a Title Douluo of level ninety-two and Shen Hanyu, a Soul Douluo whose strength is in no way inferior to that of an ordinary Title Douluo, a dark green bead the size of a grain of rice finally slowly appeared in Dugu Bo's dantian, emitting a deep and mysterious light.

"Old Biden, the poison pill is basically complete. Now you just need to inject all the toxins in your body into it and establish a connection with the Jade Phosphorous Serpent Emperor Martial Soul. After that, you will no longer suffer from the toxins."

Shen Hanyu said, while stuffing an ice-blue bead into Dugu Bo's mouth. This was the highest level of ice-attribute energy crystal he could currently condense, containing energy no less than a three-thousand-year-old ice-attribute soul ring. It was one of the most powerful pieces of help he could give Dugu Bo.

As Shen Hanyu slowly absorbed the energy from the icy blue bead, a terrifyingly low temperature descended. Dugu Bo's still somewhat swollen body couldn't help but tremble, and then the rate of shrinking accelerated once again, until he had completely returned to his original appearance.

Shen Hanyu didn't dare to let his guard down. This was his first attempt, and he wouldn't relax his vigilance until the very last moment.

Dugu Bo's hair slowly turned black again, and his original white hair disappeared without a trace. The gloomy aura around him also slowly dissipated, leaving only the special aura unique to a Title Douluo.

Tianmeng was also alerted early on, but she did not disturb Shen Hanyu. Instead, she silently activated the "X-ray vision" skill attached to the million-year-old spiritual skull to help Shen Hanyu observe the landscape inside Dugu Bo's dantian.

The poison pill, which was originally the size of a grain of rice, has now become incredibly round, and its size has reached about the size of a plum. The surface of the poison pill has become incredibly crystalline, and the terrifying toxins surging within can be vaguely seen.

Most of the toxins in Dugu Bo's body have been cleared, but some remain in certain areas. However, this is not a big deal for Dugu Bo; he can completely eliminate them once he regains consciousness and spends some time doing so.

At the same time, Shen Hanyu also noticed Dugu Bo's only head soul bone, a ten-thousand-year head soul bone from Medusa, the Queen of the Serpents, whose value far surpasses that of an ordinary fifty-thousand-year soul bone.

Besides that, Dugu Bo was extremely poor, he didn't have a single other soul bone, not even one in a thousand years.

Shen Hanyu sighed softly. It seemed he would have to find some time to change Dugu Bo's clothes.

Once Dugu Bo breaks through to level 95, wow, when he rides the Azure Phosphorous Serpent Emperor there, his intimidating power is in no way inferior to that of a level 97 or 98 Title Douluo.

After all, in a one-on-one battle against a true man like Dugu Bo, he probably wouldn't be a match for any of the titled Douluo. However, if Dugu Bo at level 95 were to unleash the full power of his Azure Phosphorous Serpent Venom, the opposing team would likely only have a few titled Douluo of level 96 or higher left.

Not to mention that this is the enhanced venom of the Azure Phosphorus Snake, which has been enhanced by the Snow-White Swan's Kiss, making it far more toxic than before.

In the original story, Buddha used this immortal herb to destroy the Slaughter City, a wonderful place, and then released a bunch of ancestors of evil soul masters, laying the groundwork for the second and third battles. However, this also cost the lives of countless innocent civilians and heroes.

Just as Shen Hanyu was pondering these questions, Dugu Bo suddenly burst forth, his soul power surging rapidly. In a short moment, he directly surged into level ninety-three. Afterward, Dugu Bo's body acted like a vacuum cleaner, absorbing all the toxins that had originally drifted out around him. His soul power also reached level ninety-four.

Shen Hanyu: qaq?

After completing the breakthrough, Dugu Bo's complexion improved significantly, and he looked radiant, like a completely different old man.

"How's it going, old Braden? How's it going?"

Shen Hanyu asked with some curiosity.

Feeling the immense power within his body, Dugu Bo laughed heartily and said:

"I have never felt so comfortable in my entire life. The toxins that have plagued me all my life have finally been perfectly controlled. From now on, my cultivation will no longer be affected by these toxins. I may even have the opportunity to strive for the level 96 Super Douluo for the rest of my life..."

Shen Hanyu also breathed a sigh of relief and said:

"Congratulations! You can continue using this method from now on. However, it's best to get it done while you're still young. Once the toxins sink into your bones or internal organs, it can cause serious problems..."

Dugu Bo patted Shen Hanyu on the shoulder, his tone full of joy.

"Kid, I knew I hadn't misjudged you. Taking a gamble with you was the best decision I've ever made!"

Shen Hanyu rubbed his slightly sore shoulder and said irritably:

"Take it easy. Although you've just broken through, the damage caused by the Jade Phosphorus Serpent venom still needs time to heal. When you get back, you can refine some tonifying pills to strengthen your foundation. I estimate that you can break through to the Super Douluo level within five years."

Dugu Bo nodded in agreement, then, as if remembering something, suddenly said through gritted teeth:

"Once I break through to level 95, that dead chrysanthemum will die. After he dies, I will seize everything he owns to vent my anger..."

Shen Hanyu inexplicably recalled a famous quote:

I will take care of your wife and children after your death, so you need not worry.

This was the thing Shen Hanyu wanted to do most in his past life. Although his temperament has changed a lot in this life, he still can't stop feeling this excitement.

Although the Prime Minister is dead, the traitor Cao lives on forever!

People who want to get by in the world of business must abide by five basic rules, which are simply:

Betraying one's word, betraying one's brothers, and disloyal to one's own people.

framing someone and taking care of his sister-in-law

Of course, the consequences of doing this could be extremely serious; you might be beaten to death by your brothers...

…………

After Shen Hanyu and Dugu Bo returned to the courtyard, they acted as if nothing had happened and continued to live their leisurely lives.

Although Shui Ningbing and the others were somewhat curious about Shen Hanyu and Dugu Bo, they wouldn't dare to ask them even if they had ten lives in front of a Title Douluo. They could only press Shen Hanyu for answers.

Shen Hanyu didn't have anything to hide about this, he just said that he went to help Dugu Bo break through his realm, and because of Dugu Bo's special poison attribute, he just went to find an open space.

Shui Ningbing and the others believed this, after all, Dugu Bo seemed like a different person after returning, but his aura had become more restrained, and his soul power was still somewhat unstable, all signs of a breakthrough.

After staying for a few days, Dugu Bo took his leave. Although he felt very safe staying at Shen Hanyu's place, almost everyone else was a little timid and fearful, afraid that he might slap them to death if he was unhappy.

Shen Hanyu was somewhat speechless about this. "Tell me," he thought, "what an adorable old man! How come you all see him as so terrifying?"

However, Dugu Bo also had his reasons for leaving. Dugu Yan was all alone in Tiandou City with no one to take care of her. What if she was bullied? This would be a huge torment for a grandfather who doted on his granddaughter. So Dugu Bo resolutely embarked on his journey back.

Shen Hanyu also explained to him that he would not be going to Tiandou City again in the near future.

According to his plan, he needs to start preparing to break through to the Title Douluo realm in Elemental City, and then he needs to obtain his ninth soul ring, which will take at least one to two years.

If he wanted to add a spirit ring to his second martial soul now, it would probably take less than half a year. Shen Hanyu was also considering this issue, and at the same time, he asked Tianshui Academy to search for some information about ice and fire attribute spirit beasts.

In response, Shui Ningbing said she would go to find the dean of Blazing Fire Academy. Blazing Fire Academy has existed for as long as Heavenly Water Academy, and several deans have even broken through to the Title Douluo realm. They should have a lot of secret information about the distribution of fire attribute soul beasts.

As for whether they would say it, Shen Hanyu said that as long as the benefits were right, there was nothing that couldn't be resolved. And to be honest, given the level of their students, apart from Huo Wu, almost none of them had the talent to break through to the Title Douluo level. Keeping them would be a waste. If they really didn't want to give it to them, then Shen Hanyu wouldn't mind creating a new account to teach their higher-ups a lesson...

P.S.: Spring was almost here, but then it inexplicably snowed again today. I spent the whole day in bed. I don't have a fever, but my cold is still there. Everyone, please keep warm and absolutely do not catch a cold!!!

This is really tough.

P.S.: I wanted to write this 4,000-word chapter as soon as possible while my mind was still clear, but I didn't realize I wrote them all together. To be honest, I was still a bit out of it (bitter smile).
