Chapter 33: Dugu Bo Comes Seeking Medicine

That evening, Yang Podi was meditating alone in his room.

After a day of training, especially the afternoon's weighted mountain climbing, Yang Podi was feeling physically exhausted. Even after a medicinal bath, the fatigue didn't completely fade.

However, this kind of post-exhaustion cultivation often yields better results. At this moment, Yang Podi felt his muscles aching, but his pores were relaxed. During the meditation, soul power from the air flowed through his pores and merged into his body, with his internal soul power circulating rapidly, becoming more solid as it absorbed the soul power from the surroundings.

At a certain point, it seemed like his soul power had reached a bottleneck, unable to grow any further. However, over time, although his soul power didn't increase, its circulation speed grew faster, especially under the constant influx of external soul power, making it feel particularly energized.

Suddenly, there was a sensation, like a "pop" inside his body, as if a barrier had been broken. Instantly, his soul power began to increase and solidify again. His entire body felt warm, from his pores to his muscles, even down to his very soul. Everything suddenly felt clear and unburdened, his inner vision becoming sharper and more serene.

"It's done. I've finally broken through to level 20."

At that moment, Yang Podi had successfully advanced to the rank of Grand Soul Master, becoming the youngest Grand Soul Master in the history of the Breaking Clan.

Suppressing the excitement in his heart, Yang Podi continued his cultivation. Though he had just broken through, this post-breakthrough state was ideal for even better results.

The next morning, Yang Podi found his father: "Dad, Mom, I've reached level 20."

Yang Zhentian beamed with pride: "Son, well done. To reach level 20 at just eight and a half years old—this is the fastest any Soul Master in the history of our Breaking Clan has ever achieved it. You're destined to revitalize our clan."

His mother and younger brother, Yang Ping'an, were equally overjoyed. After all, what could make a family happier than seeing one of their own achieve such progress? His little sister, Yang Tianyue, was also running around, calling out "Big Brother!" nonstop, though no one was sure if she even understood what was happening.

After the family celebrated for a while, Yang Zhentian spoke up: "Son, the Breaking Clan has been quite busy lately. Your grandfather and great-uncle might not have time to accompany you to hunt for a soul beast."

Yang Podi glanced in the direction of his grandfather's house: "Dad, there's no need for Grandfather to come with us this time. Let's just go, you and me."

"Alright, son. This time, I'll personally take you to hunt a soul beast and make sure you get a suitable soul ring."

Yang Zhentian's soul power had already reached level 76, making hunting a soul beast of a thousand years or less a simple task. However, Yang Wudi, Yang Podi's grandfather, was always concerned for his grandson's safety and feared that Yang Zhentian's judgment or strength might not be sufficient. For that reason, Yang Wudi had always insisted on personally leading the hunts for Yang Podi's soul rings. But lately, an important matter had kept everyone occupied.

Yang Podi thought to himself: This time, I can't miss this opportunity. This is the true foundation for the Breaking Clan's future rise.

Indeed, what had given Yang Podi this sense of urgency was the significant event that had occurred within the clan.

Half a month ago, Soul Douluo Dugu Bo had arrived with his son, Dugu Xin, seeking medicine.

Dugu Bo was one of the top Soul Douluo in the Heaven Dou Empire, with overwhelming strength. His mastery of poison made him feared by many, able to kill any Soul Master below the Soul Douluo level almost instantly. Particularly for families and sects without a Title Douluo, crossing Dugu Bo could lead to disaster.

In fact, Dugu Bo had committed such atrocities before. Many years ago, a mid-sized family had clashed with the Dugu family, injuring Dugu Bo's son, Dugu Xin. In retaliation, Dugu Bo wiped out the entire family, turning their residence into a wasteland, leaving no trace of life behind.

Recently, for some unknown reason, Dugu Xin had been struck by a severe poison. Despite seeking out every renowned doctor in the Heaven Dou Empire, no one could cure him. Even the leader of the Nine Hearts Begonia Clan, Ye Renxin, could only extend Dugu Xin's life temporarily, unable to detoxify him.

The Breaking Clan was well-known in the Heaven Dou Empire for their expertise in concocting medicines and poisons, though they weren't particularly skilled in treating illnesses and were not considered a medical family. After all, in the world of Soul Masters, healing-type Soul Masters were far more effective than any medicine. Additionally, the Breaking Clan members were born warriors, proud and difficult to approach.

Seeing his son weaken day by day, Dugu Bo had no choice but to bring him to the Breaking Clan, hoping for a miracle.

Dugu Xin's poison originated from his martial soul, making him a living source of the toxin. No healing-type Soul Master could treat it, and even detoxifying soul skills were ineffective.

However, the Breaking Clan's obsession with concocting medicines and poisons made this case particularly fascinating for Yang Wudi and Yang Wushuang. After discussing the situation with Dugu Bo, the two elders invited Dugu Bo and his son to stay within the Breaking Clan for treatment.

The four of them were now secluded in the clan's medicine chamber, working on a solution. The exact results were unknown, but the chamber had been sealed off, with no one allowed to approach. Occasionally, eerie green smoke would billow from the chamber, adding to the mysterious and frightening atmosphere.

Inside Yang Wudi's medicine chamber, Yang Wudi, Yang Wushuang, and Dugu Bo stood around the bed where Dugu Xin lay.

Yang Wudi spoke: "Brother Dugu, after this period of treatment, we've gained a better understanding of your son's poison. According to the Breaking Clan's methods of medicine and poison refinement, we can alleviate the immediate danger to your son. However, after extensive research, we've determined that the primary source of the poison comes from your son's martial soul and the poisonous soul rings he has absorbed. No medicine will be able to cure him completely."

"If Brother Dugu can bear it, destroying your son's martial soul is the only way to rid him of the poison entirely."

"After all, the poison comes from his martial soul, and even if we detoxify him now, his cultivation will continue to produce more poison in the future."

Though Dugu Xin was still alive, Dugu Bo's worry remained evident. "Is there no other way to cure my son, Clan Chiefs?"

Yang Wudi pondered for a long time before responding: "There is indeed another way. If you could find the legendary Immortal herb known as the Delicate Fragrance of the Immortal Tear Herb, your son's poison would no longer be an issue."

"The Delicate Fragrance of the Immortal Tear Herb? What is that?"

"It's a celestial herb, known for its ability to cure all kinds of poison. It would surely rid your son of his martial soul's poison. However, it has been lost to the world for countless years. Our Breaking Clan has searched for generations but has yet to find it."

"Is there any other method?"

"The Douluo Continent is vast, with countless martial souls and soul beasts. Perhaps others have a way to treat your son, but for now, neither of us can think of any alternative solutions."

Dugu Bo remained silent for a long time before finally speaking: "I'll leave my son's treatment to you for now. Let's keep searching for other solutions."

Though Dugu Bo was reluctant to see his son reduced to an ordinary person, he was determined to continue trying to save him
