Chapter 93 Trapped_1
In an instant, right in front of Du Gu Bo, a Biphosphorous Snake Emperor, tens of meters in size, suddenly appeared. Its massive body was covered with countless phosphorus armors, continuously emitting a deep green venom that sent shivers down one's spine. Its cunning and ruthless dark brown vertical pupils looked down upon Xu Sheng below, and with its flicking tongue, it had already considered Xu Sheng as its food!
Du Gu Bo shouted coldly, "Biphosphorous Snake Emperor, Medusa's Eye!"
The pupils of the Biphosphorous Snake Emperor gradually gleamed with patches of white, and then, a strong beam of light exploded from between its eyes, blasting toward the tiny Xu Sheng…
When the massive beam hit the protective barrier, it began to crack gradually…
Xu Sheng, looking at the barrier that was about to shatter, raised an eyebrow, "Hmm? I'm now a Level 96 Super Douluo, and the soul skills I can use are far beyond what I could a few years ago. Yet this Du Gu Bo, with his Level 93 Martial Soul True Body, can break my defense. Seems he's not as weak as I thought."
Little did he know, the reason Du Gu Bo could break the defense was due to that soul bone skill, Medusa's Eye!
By this time, the surrounding green mist had already dissipated completely, so Xu Sheng jumped back more than a dozen meters to avoid being affected by the attack…
The protective barrier, unable to withstand the attack, shattered violently. The attack from Medusa's Eye hit the ground, erupting with astonishing power and leaving behind a huge pit tens of meters wide!
Du Gu Bo kicked off the ground once again and leapt onto the Biphosphorous Snake Emperor's crown, squinting down at Xu Sheng below and shouting coldly, "Kid, you haven't even decided to use your Martial Soul True Body up to now. Are you looking down on this old man?"
Xu Sheng responded with an amused smile. If he used his Martial Soul True Body, he truly feared he might accidentally kill Du Gu Bo…
Looking up at the enormous Biphosphorous Snake Emperor, Xu Sheng's right hand reached out directly toward it...
He said indifferently, "To deal with you, there's no need to use my Martial Soul True Body. But indeed, it's about time to finish this."
His eighth soul ring beneath his feet lit up…
The eighth soul skill, Bloodthirsty Litchi Bite: Can directly drain the blood of soul masters and soul beasts with significantly lower Soul Power within a certain range. If drained, the victim won't be able to use their Martial Soul for a week!
If both parties have comparable Soul Power, then Blood Litchi Flowers that continuously drain life force will form around the opponent.
Seeing the deep eighth soul ring light up beneath Xu Sheng's feet, Du Gu Bo on top of the Biphosphorous Snake Emperor immediately became alert, "The eighth soul ring? This kid is directly using the eighth soul ring without even calling forth his Martial Soul True Body. His combat power will be greatly reduced!"
This was common knowledge that all soul masters should know!
Right after, Du Gu Bo once again declared coldly, "Never mind that, since the boy is so complacent, then let his arrogance be the end of him!"
The next moment, he commanded the Biphosphorous Snake Emperor beneath him to lunge straight toward the tiny Xu Sheng, who seemed no more than an ant...
The rapidly crawling Biphosphorous Snake Emperor was like a meandering dragon, barreling through the dust, heading straight for Xu Sheng with a crushing force…
Seeing the enormous creature about to reach him, Xu Sheng said coldly, "It's over!"
He clenched his hand, aiming at the Biphosphorous Snake Emperor…
Amidst its frenzied dash, a sound of flesh exploding came from within the Biphosphorous Snake Emperor…
With a "puff," the Biphosphorous Snake Emperor let out a pain-filled roar as all the green blood in its body was forcefully drawn out...
Standing on the snake crown, Du Gu Bo, witnessing this, clearly felt the lament from his own Martial Soul, his face filled with rage as he exclaimed, "What? How is this possible? To extract the blood of a Martial Soul? You've got to be kidding??"
No one on the Continent had ever possessed a soul skill that could attack someone else's Martial Soul, which had completely shattered his understanding!!
Meanwhile, the Biphosphorous Snake Emperor, which had lost all its blood during the charge, suddenly slowed down significantly and stopped just a meter away from Xu Sheng…
Following closely behind, the massive body of several dozen meters fell to the ground in despair, the vertical pupils dimming without ever closing, never to move again...
Du Gu Bo was thrown off from atop the Biphosphorous Snake Emperor, crashing heavily onto the ground...
Du Gu Bo clutched his aching chest, his eyes filled with unwillingness as he looked towards Xu Sheng. After a few weak coughs, he managed to speak, "Cough cough... Kid, what exactly is this soul skill of yours? Why is it so strange?"
Xu Sheng smiled and suddenly, four thick vines of Nine-heart Asiatic Apple appeared, coiling around Du Gu Bo's limbs...
Bound by the vines, Du Gu Bo shook continuously, trying desperately to break free, his mind racing to activate his Martial Soul...
However, he was disappointed. Not only was there no response from his Martial Soul, but not even one of the nine soul rings at his feet appeared.
Xu Sheng slowly walked over, patted his shoulder, and said lightly, "Senior Du Gu, you might as well not waste your strength. Your Martial Soul will need at least a week before you can use it. Which is to say, right now, you are nothing more than an ordinary person!"
Unable to use his Martial Soul, the attributes amplified by his soul rings also disappeared, making it impossible for him to break free from the Nine-Hearted Begonia.
Du Gu Bo's eyes flashed with ferocity as he looked at Xu Sheng and said coldly, "Kid, what do you plan to do now? Kill me?"
Du Gu Bo had lived his life making decisions based on his character, and he had long grown accustomed to death.
Even if he had fallen into this youngster's hands, even if he were to be killed, he would not beg for mercy!
Xu Sheng couldn't help but laugh and said, "Poison Douluo, you jest. All this fighting and killing, how unpleasant. I was left with no choice, after all, your existence would impact many things."
He felt somewhat like he was acting too arrogantly, much like a villain...
But after Xu Sheng's hint, Poison Douluo buried his head in thought...
Upon raising it again, his dark green pupils contracted as if he had thought of something terrifying, and he exclaimed in shock, "No choice? Could it be... it wasn't you who poisoned the prince? It was the Crown Prince, Qing He!!!"
He had been tricked!
That Qing He must have been impersonated by someone else, and these two...
A look of surprise appeared on Xu Sheng's face. "I didn't expect you to guess it, Senior Du Gu. In that case, there's nothing I can do, I'll have to erase your memory."
Naturally, Du Gu Bo could not be allowed to return with his suspicions.
With those words, the ninth soul skill at his feet suddenly lit up...
...
Inside the imperial palace, Xue Ye grew anxious as he realized that Du Gu Bo had not yet returned. "How come Senior Du Gu has not come back even now? Could it be that he is evenly matched with the poisoner?
Qing He is poisoned at the moment! If this drags on, something unpredictable might happen!
Xue Xing wiped the cold sweat from his forehead. Under such pressure, every second felt like torment...
Having been gone for so long, could it be that Du Gu Bo really encountered a formidable adversary?
