Inside the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well, Dugu Bo was seated cross-legged in an open space, the poisonous gas around his body slowly surging and gathering in front of him.
He was struggling to suppress the toxins within his body when he suddenly felt that the poison array he had set up outside had been destroyed by a powerful force.
Immediately, an alert expression appeared on his face. He forcibly suppressed the toxins in his body, preparing to see who had trespassed into his territory.
According to his perception, the newcomer was likely hostile and definitely a Titled Douluo powerhouse.
Dugu Bo merely speculated in his heart, 'Could it be him again, coming to cause trouble?' The next moment, a hint of impatience flashed in his eyes.
'He's truly a persistent ghost; he managed to find me even here.'
...
"Who's there!"
Sword Douluo, with a cautious expression, led Bei Chen and the other person into the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well. He had naturally detected a powerful aura within the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well.
"Boom!"
Just then, a domineering aura surged from ahead, directly flying towards Sword Douluo.
Seeing this, Sword Douluo's dark pupils reflected strands of sword qi. His Seven Kill Sword Spirit in front of him released astonishing sword qi, cutting down surrounding trees at the waist, leaving perfectly smooth cross-sections.
"Buzz buzz buzz!"
As Sword Douluo's spirit rings pulsed one after another, a large expanse of sword qi silently emerged.
With a wave of his hand, all the giant swords in front of him merged into a colossal Seven Kill Sword phantom.
"Whoosh whoosh whoosh!"
He brought two fingers together, sliced through the air, and fiercely struck the incoming attack.
A series of explosive sounds rang out. Hearing the massive thud in front, Sword Douluo and the others slowly walked forward.
He wanted to see which Titled Douluo dared to attack him, overestimating his own abilities.
As the dust ahead gradually cleared, Dugu Bo's lips overflowed with blood, and he stared gravely at Sword Douluo in front of him.
"Sword Douluo, what brings you to this old man's place?"
After sensing that astonishing sword qi, Dugu Bo knew it was Sword Douluo.
However, the attack he had just launched couldn't be canceled in time, so he could only desperately try to block Sword Douluo's sharp sword qi.
Sword Douluo's reputation was not hollow; for him to try and contend with Sword Douluo with his strength was simply overestimating his own abilities, he would be completely crushed.
"Dugu Bo, you're actually here."
Sword Douluo saw Dugu Bo, who had been severely injured by him, and a hint of surprise flashed in his eyes.
A moment later, his gaze swept around, and he immediately saw an astonishing sight. Feeling the extremely rich spirit power in the air, his heart was filled with continuous awe.
'It truly is a treasure trove!'
If one were to cultivate here, the speed of spirit power improvement would definitely increase several times. He looked at Bei Chen with an admiring gaze, not expecting Bei Chen to have discovered such a treasure trove.
With the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well, the strength of their Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School would increase even faster.
"So you are Dugu Bo."
Bei Chen said, feigning surprise.
However, Dugu Bo's expression turned slightly unsightly. He was a Titled Douluo powerhouse after all.
For a junior to address him like that, it was disrespectful!
But constrained by Sword Douluo beside him, and knowing that these two children's identities were definitely not simple, he could only helplessly say, "Yes, what can this young friend do for me?"
Bei Chen looked at Dugu Bo's aggrieved expression and sighed. He knew Dugu Bo from the original work very well.
His personality was fearless, afraid of nothing.
Indeed, only with powerful strength would people feel awe.
"It's like this, Dugu Bo, we hope you can give this valley to our Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School. Do you have any objections?"
Bei Chen said indifferently.
"No, this valley belongs to me. I cannot give it to your Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School."
Upon hearing this, Dugu Bo's expression became extremely ugly, and he refused without hesitation.
He had finally found a place that greatly benefited spirit power cultivation and could also suppress the toxins in his body. He would not give it away for nothing.
"What if I can help you remove the toxins from your body? Would you then be willing to give this valley to our Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School?"
Bei Chen had an indifferent expression, as if everything was within his grasp.
"Nonsense! How could I, a Titled Douluo powerhouse specializing in poison, be poisoned?"
It seemed this touched a forbidden subject for Dugu Bo. He instantly erupted in anger, roaring at Bei Chen.
"Hmm?"
Sword Douluo's expression remained unchanged, and his majestic spirit power instantly surged towards Dugu Bo.
"Muffled groan!" he let out.
A mountain-like pressure assaulted Dugu Bo from behind, making it hard to breathe, and his mind was shaken beyond compare.
Is this Sword Douluo's strength?
"Dugu Bo, when it's cloudy and rainy, do you experience itching symptoms in your ribs? And does it flare up once at midnight and once at noon? Do you even feel a needle-pricking sensation in your head and feet in the middle of the night?"
Bei Chen directly stated Dugu Bo's symptoms from the original work, his expression calm and composed, not worried about Dugu Bo's refutation in the slightest.
"How do you know?"
Dugu Bo said in shock. He indeed often experienced these symptoms that Bei Chen mentioned.
He thought it was just due to his physical condition. Could it really be as this young man said?
Was he really poisoned?
How was this possible!
He had reached his current realm by cultivating poison arts. If the news of him being poisoned were to spread, wouldn't the entire continent laugh at him?
"Of course, it's a symptom caused by your poisoning. If you don't treat it in time, I'm afraid your life won't be long."
"What's more, your descendant also carries this toxin. If it's not treated early, perhaps an even greater danger will erupt in the end."
Bei Chen continued to add fuel to the fire. In his opinion, what Dugu Bo cared about most was his granddaughter, Dugu Yan.
"Are you telling the truth? You're not lying to me."
Dugu Bo's suspicious gaze focused on Bei Chen as he asked tentatively.
However, in his heart, he already believed Bei Chen's words. Those symptoms of his own, only he knew about them; he had never told anyone else.
He only had one granddaughter. If unforeseen consequences arose because of his own condition, he would never forgive himself for the rest of his life.
"Of course it's true. I have a solution here."
Seeing Dugu Bo's reaction, Bei Chen smiled.
"Alright, if you can truly cure the poison in both of us, grandfather and grandson, then giving this entire valley to your Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School is fine."
Dugu Bo said decisively. If his own toxins were completely resolved, then giving this valley to the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School would be nothing to regret.
"Deal!"
"You can find a Spirit Bone and force all the toxins in your body into the Spirit Bone, filtering the toxins little by little. However, the process will be quite long, but during this process, it can help you alleviate years of pain."
"As for the poison in your granddaughter, it's not serious. I have other methods that can completely cure it."
Bei Chen stated a relatively easy solution. As for Dugu Yan, with the effect of his Life Ancient Tree Spirit, it would be enough to completely dissolve the toxins in Dugu Yan's body.
