48: Blue Phosphorus Venom

Chrysanthemum Douluo pinched his fingers in an orchid gesture and clicked his tongue. "After all this time, it seems you haven't made any progress at all."

"Hehe, Chrysanthemum Pass, you're still as disgusting as ever."

Dugu Bo snorted coldly, having no good feelings toward Chrysanthemum Douluo either.

The memory of him and Ghost Douluo hunting him down was still vivid in his mind.

"Chrysanthemum Pass?"

"Old Poison!"

Chrysanthemum Douluo's eyes instantly turned cold, and his fists clenched in a moment.

He hated it most when people called him Chrysanthemum Pass!

"Elder Ju!"

Su Wen spoke up to remind him, looking at Chrysanthemum Douluo. "Elder Ju, I want to talk to them alone. You and Nana wait for me outside for a moment."

Chrysanthemum Douluo let out a breath of turbid air, regained his composure, and nodded slightly. He warned Dugu Bo, "Old Poison, although I don't know if you are sincerely joining Spirit Hall, I advise you to be careful. If anything happens to Su Wen, you and your granddaughter will definitely not escape Spirit City."

Dugu Bo didn't speak, only giving a light snort.

"Poison Douluo, this is the antidote I promised you."

After Chrysanthemum Douluo and Hu Liena left, Su Wen took out the prepared detoxification medicine.

The medicinal properties of the Octagonal Mysterious Ice Grass and the fiery apricot shu had merged into his body, and the combination of the two had created a body immune to all poisons.

His blood, combined with some ordinary detoxification medicine, could likewise cure all the poisons in the world.

"Grandpa, what are you talking about?"

Dugu Yan looked at Dugu Bo in confusion.

Antidote?

Grandpa was poisoned?

But he's the Poison Douluo!

The Poison Douluo, who has spent his life playing with poisons, could actually be poisoned?

"Yan Yan, I'll explain it to you later!"

Dugu Bo soothed Dugu Yan. Although she was anxious, she knew it was not the time to say anything more.

Dugu Bo looked at the small bottles in front of him and picked up one of them.

He opened it and sniffed.

He didn't take it immediately; there was still worry in his heart.

"Rest assured, I won't poison it. If I really wanted to deal with you, I wouldn't need to use such means. You can take it with peace of mind."

Su Wen saw through his doubts and spoke with a smile. "Before you take it, I must remind you: although it can cure all poisons and stop the suffering from the Jade Phosphor Serpent Poison, it will also weaken your poison cultivation, causing your strength to decline."

"This..." Dugu Bo had completely let go of his worries after hearing the first part, but Su Wen's last sentence left him stunned.

He, the Poison Douluo, relied on his poison cultivation to be famous throughout the world. If his toxins were weakened, he, a Titled Douluo, would become a mere decoration.

Having the title of Titled Douluo without the actual strength would be even more disgraceful than being the weakest Titled Douluo.

"Grandpa, Jade Phosphor Serpent Poison? What on earth are you talking about?"

Dugu Yan was completely frantic now.

She had already begun to sense that something was wrong.

Jade Phosphor Serpent Poison?

How could Grandpa be afflicted by Jade Phosphor Serpent Poison?

"Sigh!"

Dugu Bo looked at his granddaughter and let out a sigh.

After a brief hesitation, he finally decided to explain the long-standing flaw in their Family's Spirit.

Dugu Bo knew that it was impossible for him to take it.

Otherwise, if he couldn't even defeat a Spirit Douluo, he would truly become the laughingstock of the continent.

As long as he had the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well, he could still suppress the toxins.

As for Dugu Yan, she was still young and could completely change her Spirit Master path.

Dugu Yan's face turned pale as she listened.

The Jade Phosphor Serpent Poison she was so proud of had actually killed her father and mother.

Even her grandfather was poisoned by it, only able to barely suppress the toxins with external help.

"Yan Yan, although the Jade Phosphor Serpent Poison makes our Spirit extremely domineering, it is also a slow-acting poison to our bodies. If you don't resolve it early and change your current Spirit Master path, as you grow stronger, the toxins in your body will accumulate more and more, eventually erupting completely when you reach the Spirit Emperor or Spirit Saint level. Yan Yan, I cannot watch you follow your father's path, so Yan Yan, give up the Jade Phosphor Serpent Poison..."

Dugu Yan didn't speak, she just lowered her head, her eyes misting over.

"Cough, cough... um... I didn't want to interrupt you, but would you like to hear me finish..."

"I have another method here where you can completely retain the Jade Phosphor Serpent Poison."

Su Wen spoke up to remind them.

Dugu Bo was startled and reflexively looked at him.

Dugu Yan also lifted her head, her eyes filled with curiosity and a flicker of hope.

"You can transfer your toxins away."

"Find a container to store the poisonous substances, such as a Spirit Bone!"

As soon as Su Wen finished speaking.

Dugu Bo couldn't wait to try it.

He had a head Spirit Bone; he could try transferring the toxins into it.

"It actually works! Why didn't I think of this?"

Dugu Bo stood frozen, driving the Jade Phosphor Serpent Poison into the Spirit Bone. The toxins in his body indeed decreased, and the toxins hidden in the Spirit Bone not only caused no harm to his body but could also be mobilized at any time.

A trace of bitterness welled up in his heart. He had only been single-mindedly thinking about resolving the toxins, but had never considered temporarily transferring them away.

He felt some regret; if it had been ten years earlier, the Dugu Family wouldn't be left with only him and Dugu Yan.

"Grandpa... is it, is it really possible?"

Dugu Yan was also somewhat dazed; the method was so simple.

Although Spirit Bones were precious, as long as her grandfather searched with all his might, obtaining a thousand-year Spirit Bone would definitely be no problem.

Seeing Dugu Bo nod, Su Wen suddenly spoke again. "This method is very good, but Spirit Bones have a capacity. Once they reach their limit, there will still be danger."

Dugu Bo suddenly felt like hitting him.

His heart was being kept in a state of flux.

Couldn't this kid explain everything at once?

Dugu Yan's mood was also fluctuating wildly as she stared intently at Su Wen.

She had already realized that although Su Wen was younger than her, his insight and knowledge far exceeded his age.

"Anything has a capacity limit and its own endurance, and Spirit Bones are no exception. However, the higher the age of the Spirit Bone, the more toxins it can withstand. So when absorbing a Spirit Bone, it's best to go for one over ten thousand years, and it's even better if you have a top-grade Spirit Bone."

"Once you have transferred all the toxins to the Spirit Bone and then take these antidotes, the toxins in your body will be completely cleared. They will no longer cause any harm to your body, and they won't even affect your poison cultivation."

Su Wen had already told them everything he knew.

"Thank you!"

While Dugu Bo was still thinking and digesting the information, Dugu Yan spoke to him in a low voice.

Su Wen shook his head. "This is just a transaction between Senior Dugu and me. I have fulfilled my part of the agreement, and I only hope Senior Dugu keeps his word as well. So there's no need to thank me."

"I will naturally keep my word..." Dugu Bo hesitated for a moment and asked, "If I completely join Spirit Hall, could I have a ten-thousand-year Spirit Bone?"

Dugu Bo could find a thousand-year Spirit Bone; it would just involve slaughtering some more lives and Spirit Beasts.

But ten-thousand-year Spirit Bones were extremely rare even among the Upper Three Sects.

Even if he joined them, they might not be able to produce one.

Spirit Hall was different, having ten thousand years of heritage.

And this kid was indeed not bad.

As the Supreme Pontiff's Disciple, his talent was certainly beyond question, and he had a good appearance. Yan Yan could interact with him more in the future.

"I'll have to ask my teacher about that."

"Before that, I remember I also promised you an Immortal Plant."
