Chapter 30 Reversal and Trading
Dugu Bo has been in a good mood lately.
Firstly, his beloved granddaughter had recently broken through to level 30, officially becoming a three-ring Soul Elder, and also becoming the highest-level Heaven Dou student at the Heaven Dou Royal Academy.
Secondly, there was finally a way to alleviate the severe poison in his body.
Dugu Bo searched through all the ancient books he could find and finally obtained some important clues from them.
Although this method of fighting poison with poison comes at a high cost, if the poison in one's body is not relieved, the loss will be life!
Dugu Bo skillfully passed through the poison array he had set up. When he arrived at the Ice and Fire Eyes, he discovered that a young man had appeared there at some point.
The young man sat cross-legged on a boulder. His white robes were not particularly luxurious, but with his handsome face, he still looked like a refined gentleman.
To Dugu Bo's surprise, the young man in front of him was only about the same strength as his granddaughter, but even Dugu Yan, who was extremely skilled in using poison, would die instantly upon touching the poison array outside the mountain.
How did he get in?
Furthermore, the two extreme types of spiritual energy here could potentially cause even a Soul Sage to self-destruct if they cultivated here.
How could someone at the third ring level be allowed to cultivate here?
Looking around, Dugu Bo immediately discovered something even more surprising.
Compared to before he left, the number of herbs in this treasure land has decreased, and there are many things that he dares not touch easily.
Clearly, the missing herbs had been taken by the boy.
"Could the newcomer be Senior Dugu?"
Dugu Bo looked at Qin Mu in surprise. He didn't know when Qin Mu had opened his eyes. There was no surprise in his eyes, nor any emotional fluctuation.
He sat there as if he had become one with his surroundings.
This is a realm that can only be reached when spiritual power and soul power are perfectly integrated.
But how old is the boy in front of me? At this age, let alone fusing spiritual power, he probably doesn't even know what spiritual power is.
How could he possibly do that?!
"Who are you?"
Dugu Bo looked around warily, raising his soul power and gathering intense killing intent around him.
He believed that it was impossible for someone from the Third Ring to pass through the poison array, so there were only two possibilities.
Or perhaps the boy in front of us isn't displaying his true strength.
Otherwise, a master must have brought the boy here.
Qin Mu looked at Dugu Bo, who was wary in front of him. Although it was the first time they had met, he was familiar with Dugu Bo's green hair and green eyes.
"Don't be nervous, Senior Dugu. I am Qin Mu, and I am all alone here."
Dugu Bo ignored Qin Mu's words and carefully explored the entire Ice and Fire Eyes. Only after confirming that there was no one else there did he feel a little relieved.
"What are you doing here? And who brought you here?"
"Don't try to fool me. The person who brought you here must be at least a Title Douluo. Otherwise, he wouldn't have been able to lead you through that poison array."
"I advise you to tell the truth, or I will definitely not let you leave alive!"
Upon hearing this, Qin Mu simply smiled and shook his head.
"Senior Dugu, is this your way of treating guests?"
"My main purpose in coming here is naturally for these Immortal Herbs."
"Of course, if Senior Dugu is willing, I can also make a deal with you."
Hearing Qin Mu's words, Dugu Bo's expression gradually turned cold.
Judging from the situation, Qin Mu seems to know the origin of these Immortal Herbs.
Although he didn't understand how precious the medicinal herbs growing in this treasure land were, he knew that these herbs were extraordinary.
A common man is innocent, but possessing a treasure is a crime.
If this gets out, I will definitely become the target of public criticism.
"A trade? Do you even think you're qualified to trade with me?"
Dugu Bo flicked his right middle finger at Qin Mu, and a pale green poisonous mist instantly appeared in front of Qin Mu, enveloping him.
"Dugu Bo, it's best not to make a move based on this level of probing, lest you embarrass yourself."
"But if I were you, I would never have intervened again."
"Otherwise, not only you, but your precious granddaughter will also die a violent death."
As Qin Mu's words rang out softly, the pale green poisonous mist surrounding him gradually disappeared, but Qin Mu's expression remained completely unchanged.
This is naturally the effect of the Beautiful Silk Tulip, a nemesis of all poisons!
Qin Mu's threat had no effect on Dugu Bo, who was used to big scenes, but considering Dugu Yan, Dugu Bo hesitated for a moment.
Are you threatening me?
"This is not a threat, but a piece of advice."
"Believe me, if you dare to make a move, the price will be far beyond what you can afford!"
Although he knew that Qin Mu might have an extraordinary background, Dugu Bo carefully considered several forces that he could not afford to offend, and the young man in front of him was not among them.
There don't seem to be any other strong people right now. As long as I do things cleanly and throw the corpse into the spring, no one will know that I did it!
A ruthless glint suddenly appeared in Dugu Bo's eyes. A strong green light was released from Dugu Bo's body, and nine spirit rings swirled upwards, the pressure directly hitting Qin Mu.
Faced with this immense pressure, Qin Mu couldn't help but furrow his brow slightly.
Dugu Bo's seventh spirit ring lit up, and his entire body instantly swelled and grew taller, transforming into a thirty-meter-long emerald green snake in the blink of an eye.
To prevent the matter from being exposed, Dugu Bo decided to disguise it as a soul beast attack.
The Jade Phosphor Serpent Emperor stared coldly at Qin Mu with its dark green eyes, and swung its massive tail directly at Qin Mu.
"Dugu Bo, how dare you!"
Just as the snake's tail was about to strike Qin Mu, a figure appeared beside him without his knowledge.
With a burst of flame rising into the air, the enormous snake tail was sent flying.
The flames burned eerily on the tail of the Jade Phosphor Serpent Emperor, which slapped the ground repeatedly before gradually dying down.
The Jade Phosphor Serpent Emperor stared intently at the pretty woman with short hair, wearing a fitted armor with eagle patterns, standing next to Qin Mu. Her figure slowly shrank, and soon she transformed back into human form.
At this moment, Dugu Bo's face was extremely ugly.
Ling Yuan knew about it, but he never expected that the young man in front of him was actually related to the Spirit Hall!
"Dugu Bo, I think you've gone mad."
"They've even set their sights on our Spirit Hall!"
"It seems I also need to report this to the Pope and properly discipline you unorganized Title Douluos!"
Ling Yuan looked at Dugu Bo with an equally cold expression.
Ling Yuan returned not long after Dugu Bo arrived at the Ice and Fire Eyes, but Qin Mu signaled her not to show herself for the time being, so she did not appear.
However, given Dugu Bo's strength as a newly promoted Title Douluo, he naturally couldn't sense Ling Yuan's level 95 presence.
Qin Mu gently patted Ling Yuan's shoulder, and to Dugu Bo's astonishment, Ling Yuan slowly retreated.
"Dugu Bo, now we can sit down and have a proper talk, right?"
