Demonic Pill Made An Appearance Again
🕑 Added 2025-04-12 12:30:10 +0000 UTC--- Chapter 52 ---
"Martial Soul's Ancestral Evolution and Bloodline Awakening of the Martial Soul?" Dugu Bo was surprised by Han Yuan's solution to fix his flawed martial soul.
Although Dugu Bo had a "high" expectation before Han Yuan said it, this was still beyond his expectations. He has heard many cases of a martial soul's second awakening, but those were pure luck.
At most, it's just a trash-type martial soul mutated into a slightly stronger one.
Dugu Bo knew the "Jade Phosphorus Snake Emperor martial soul" had reached its limit because of its flawed origin, but he would have never thought of using the dragon's essence to fix it.
It was too visionary!
"Let's say we use this method, Young Master." Dugu Bo said slowly. "How are we going to do that?"
"I don't think bathing with dragon's blood would help much."
"I'm also a Title Douluo, which means I can't absorb any spirit rings from dragon-type spirit beasts."
Han Yuan listened to Dugu Bo's doubt and smiled, "With this."
A blood-colored pill the size of a walnut appeared on Han Yuan's palm as he threw it at Dugu Bo.
Dugu Bo caught the blood-colored pill and observed it with confusion, then his eyes transformed into a wonder.
"What is this? Such a strong blood energy."
Han Yuan chuckled, "That's what I call Demonic Pill, one of my creations to solve martial soul's quality among commoner spirit masters."
"I made it with the spirit beast's remains, blood, flesh, bone, and some other bonding agent, making this pill a potent evolutionary force that can allow spirit masters to increase their talents."
"The one in your hand was 'actually' made with the remains of "Horned Water Snake" rumored to possess Water Dragon's bloodline, which is true, but too faint to show any effect."
"Spirit masters with snake-type martial soul and water attributes may eat this Demonic Pill and gain Horned Dragon Snake's quality, even evolving their martial souls into one, though the process depends on their potential and willpower."
"Technically speaking, if you eat that Demonic Pill, Senior... You may gain Horned Water Snake's pure origin without any of its chaotic essence, but your Jade Phosphorus Snake Emperor's quality is too high."
"There is also one glaring weakness about the Demonic Pill. Spirit Masters can only use one in their whole life, or the contained essences within those pills make them explode like fireworks."
"Senior? Are you listening?" Han Yuan glanced at Dugu Bo, who froze like a broken laptop.
A few minutes later, Dugu Bo returned to normal and said, "Y-You made this?"
"Well..." Han Yuan was about to answer when Dugu Bo suddenly stopped him by sighing.
"Never mind, don't answer that. At this point, it's better for me to just nod my head like a fool than trying to understand this shit." Dugu Bo glanced at the blood-colored pill in his hand.
"So, this "Demonic Pill" can help me as long as you have remains of rare dragon-type spirit beasts, right?"
"Yup." Han Yuan replied. "Any dragon-type spirit beast with pure bloodline like Tyrant Dragon, Iron Armored Dragon, or Golden Earth Dragon King will help your Jade Phosphorus Snake Emperor evolve into a dragon."
"But you should hunt those with fire or water elements instead."
"Hmm, why so?" Dugu Bo tilted his head. "Wait, do you want to combine my poison with fire or water elements, making them stronger?"
Han Yuan chuckled, "Exactly."
"Senior, you must know about Fire Poison and Cold Poison. So, if your Jade Phosphorus Snake Emperor evolved in this direction, the poison backlash won't matter to you. In fact, it will make you even stronger!"
"I knew you possessed a neidan that formed naturally in your body. After fusing that neidan with the dragon's origin, reaching Super Douluo or Limit Douluo won't be a problem for you anymore."
Upon hearing this, Dugu Bo's body shook slightly as he pictured fighting a "certain" Title Douluo from the Spirit Hall using the evolved Fire or Water Element Jade Dragon.
"Then, what are we waiting for, Young Master?" Dugu Bo looked at Han Yuan intensely. "Let's go to the sea or volcanic mountain and hunt for those dragon-type spirit beasts!"
Han Yuan rolled his eyes, "And then forget about your sick son?"
"Uh..." Dugu Bo fell into silence immediately.
Yeah, he completely forgets about his coma son.
"Calm your horse down already, Senior?" Han Yuan gave Dugu Bo a playful look.
Dugu Bo blushed because he was too embarrassed to speak now. He's no different than his greedy ancestor.
Han Yuan sighed, "I get that you're excited, but we should take this step by step."
"I haven't fully explored the effect of Demonic Pill because there aren't many subjects to use. I might not be the kindest person in the world, but I know not to touch innocent people."
"Of course, we can still use scum to experiment with the Demonic Pill to speed up my understanding of your condition."
"Don't you think so, Senior?"
Dugu Bo got what Han Yuan meant, "Yes."
As the well-known strongest poison master, Dugu Bo knew he wasn't a kind Title Douluo, but he'd try his best not to drag the innocent into his matter. He wouldn't use his poison recklessly because he knew just how dangerous it was.
Of course, if Dugu Bo has no choice, he can steel himself and pretend to be a devil. He has survived long enough to be a Title Douluo. The amount of people he killed is no lower than three digits.
Han Yuan gave Dugo Bo a knowing look, "Enough with your problem."
"Why don't we discuss the method we should use for your son and Sister Yanyan?"
"Let's do that." After getting sober, Dugu Bo nodded thoughtfully.
"Their condition is much better than yours, and we can extract poison from their bodies before planning proper spirit rings from dragon-type spirit beasts, which can repair their flaws." Han Yuan started talking.
"Sister Yanyan just reached a half-step Spirit Elder Realm. We can still fix her path of spirit master."
"Your son, though..."
Dugu Bo bitterly replied, "Dugu Xin, my son, is currently a Spirit Emperor with Spirit Rank level 62, and all of his spirit rings come from toxic spirit beasts of non-snake species..."
"..." Han Yuan.
No wonder your son died tragically in the original story.
"After introducing you to my students, we are going to Heaven Dou City asap." Han Yuan said solemnly.
"Yes, Young Master!" Dugu Bo replied gratefully.
Han Yuan and Dugu Bo went to the waterfall behind the academy. Their arrival caught the attention of Liu Erlonh, Han Yue, and the eight red-grade students.
Liu Erlong pinched her cheek, "So, it's not a dream."
"He really recruited a Title Douluo into the academy..."
"Title Douluo???" Han Yue, who only knew about this now, was puzzled beyond belief. "Since when did we have a Title Douluo?"
"Since last night..." Liu Erlong replied with twitching lips.
"What, and Xiao Yuan didn't tell me?" Han Yue was speechless.
Han Yuan greeted them warmly, "Morning, everyone."
"The morning class will be brief. Let me introduce you to Dao Academy's Guardian, Senior Poison Douluo!"
"Hello..." Dugu Bo awkwardly stared at the eight children, who gave him silly expressions ranging from shock to fear and disbelief.
"W-Wow, we actually have a Title Douluo in the academy!" Du Buzi yelled excitedly. "Senior, nice to meet you!"
"I'm Du Buzi! My goal is to be the second-strongest man in the world!"
Dugu Bo was amused, "Why second-strongest? Not the strongest?"
"No way! Headmaster Han Yuan is the strongest man in the world! I can't possibly take that title from him." Du Buzi announced passionately, patting his somewhat muscular chest.
"..." Everyone.
At least you're self-conscious.
Then, the other students greeted Dugu Bo politely.
Han Yuan pulled Han Yue's hand and introduced, "Sister, this is Poison Douluo, Dugo Bo. You can call him Senior Dugu or Old Poison."
"..." Dugu Bo.
"Err, nice to meet you, Senior Dugu." Han Yue smiled warmly.
Dugu Bo gave her a flattering expression, "Don't be too nervous. Since you're Young Master's Sister, my position is naturally lower than you, Young Lady."
"From now on, this Old Man will be at your service."
"And lastly, this is our dean, Liu Erlong, that's it." Han Yuan pointed his finger at Liu Erlong.
"OY!" Liu Erlong clenched her hand tight at Han Yuan.
"Introduce me properly!"
Dugu Bo saw the beautiful yet temperamental dean and commented, "The Slaughtering Corner of Golden Iron Triangle, Liu Erlong. I've heard of you before."
"Since Young Master picked you as the academy's dean, then you must have the potential to be a Title Douluo."
"Let's take care of each other well, Dean."
"Haha, thank you, Senior." Liu Erlong replied awkwardly. "Let's take care of each other well from now on."
Han Yuan clapped, "Okay, that's it. Students, you're dismissed!"
"The next class will be tomorrow, so you're free until then."
"Yey!" Du Buzi and others cheered.
Han Yuan glanced at Han Yuan and Liu Erlong, "Sister, Senior Erlong, come with me and Senior Dugu to the Heaven Dou City."
"We are going to save Senior Dugu's Son."
"What about the academy?" Liu Erlong frowned slightly. It's not that she doesn't want to go, but one of them usually had to say to control the poison array.
"I just modified the poison array yesterday. The array can protect the academy from intruders without anyone controlling it now." Han Yuan replied casually.
"Then, I'm going~!" Liu Erlong grabbed Han Yuan's arm and sandwiched it in her valley of softness.
Han Yue saw this and frowned, hugging Han Yuan's other arm. "Let's go, Xiao Yuan!"
Dugu Bo narrowed his eyes, 'Hoho, this is not good. I would have never thought Yanyan's opponents to be this tough.'
'Hmph, but Yanyan still has a chance!'
Then, the four of them flew to Heaven Dou City.
