Chapter 1038 Rescuing Dugu Bo from Danger [2 chapters combined into one, a large chapter with 4 char

Boom——!
In the Sunset Forest, where the sun was shining brightly, a terrifying clap of thunder suddenly resounded in the sky!

In the center of Sunset Forest
In a hollowed-out valley shrouded in dark green poisonous fog, a sudden burst of lightning and a fierce wind tore open a gap.

The red and blue spring was revealed.

Its dazzling light burst forth, like a rare and precious treasure being born, colorful and fragrant with medicinal aroma.

A dark green figure leaped out of the valley, catching a glimpse of the lightning in the sky and frowning. Before he could re-conceal the poison array, a sharp laugh echoed from behind him, seemingly vying with the thunder in the heavens for sound!
"Ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha……"

"It's like finding a needle in a haystack, only to have it fall right under my nose! Even the heavens are on my side! A strange phenomenon suddenly appears in the clear sky, a thunderbolt splits the poisonous fog, a faint fragrance and sparse shadows dance in the wind, and flowers fall on the homes of the heartbroken! Hahahaha!"

Upon hearing the shrill laughter, the dark green figure immediately turned and stared at it.

"who?!"

The old man turned around and saw who it was. His eyes widened immediately, and he thought to himself that something was wrong.

The two looked at each other, unable to hide the surprise in their eyes.

They all said in unison:
"It's you!"

Boom——!
Above the sky, thunder rumbled, and in the Sunset Forest, spirit beasts fled. Among them, the weaker spirit masters, naturally fearing being caught in the crossfire of the reckless spirit beasts, hurriedly retreated.

Rumble——!
Thunder rumbled in, and a sharp voice, filled with extreme excitement, pierced the sky.

"Seventh Soul Skill, Qirong True Form!"

"Chrysanthemum Pass, what do you want to do?"

"Enough with the nonsense, you old poisoner, it's either you or me today!"

"Seventh Soul Skill, Azure Phosphorous True Form!"

"boom--!"

Amidst the thunder and lightning, a green figure and a golden figure started fighting without saying a word.

The golden petals are like sharp battle blades.

With the blessing of Qi Rong's true form, it transformed into a rain of golden rain, each flake carrying domineering soul power, piercing straight at the green shadow.

The emerald green poisonous fog formed a green barrier, but when the golden petals collided with the fog, they burned holes in it, and the scorching soul power seeped in through the gaps, numbing the old man's skin.

"Old poisoner, your poison is temporarily ineffective against me!"

Chrysanthemum Guan's voice was mocking, and the metal chrysanthemums under his feet spun.

"Let me show you how powerful Contra is!"

Dozens of purple threads suddenly shot out from the chrysanthemum's stamen, coiling out like serpents.
"Chrysanthemum Pass! You've gone too far!"

With a furious roar, emerald green soul power surged forth.

Attempting to break the thread,

But the silk thread was like a leech, binding his movements.

Take this opportunity,

The slender and elegant figure teleported in front of the green shadow, her palm gathering golden soul power, and slammed it hard into his chest.

"puff--"

"..."

Time flies by,

They only exchanged blows for a moment. As a burst of green poisonous mist erupted, a sharp shout, accompanied by thunder, sounded mournful.

"Chrysanthemum Pass!"

"I have already said that,"

"We're willing to give you this precious land, are you determined to wipe us out completely?"

A giant, emerald-green python coiled in the forest, with an old man of green hair and beard standing atop its head, clutching his chest and blood seeping from the corner of his mouth. Beneath his feet lay seven spirit rings: two yellow, two purple, and three black.

This old man was actually a Soul Saint.

At this moment, his dark green eyes were filled with solemnity. He hadn't expected to encounter the Spirit Hall's henchmen just as he was about to go out to hunt souls. He'd been caught red-handed at Chrysanthemum Pass, and this sudden change in the heavens had exposed this treasure trove.

"Old Poisoner, blame yourself for seeing things you shouldn't have. This precious land is of utmost importance, and I cannot afford to be careless. I apologize for your actions; I will bring your descendants to the Spirit Hall and take good care of them."

Her delicate yet hoarse voice responded to the old man's words.

It was a slightly alluring figure, clad in golden armor, standing atop a massive lotus flower gleaming with metallic luster. Beneath her feet were eight spirit rings: two yellow, two purple, and four black.

He was none other than Chrysanthemum Pass, the very Chrysanthemum Lord the old man had called out, and now a Red-Clothed Deacon of the Spirit Hall at the Soul Douluo level! He would also be one of the two generals under the two Popes, Qian Xunji and Bibi Dong, a Spirit Hall elder, and a level 95 Super Douluo, Chrysanthemum Douluo, more than twenty years later!

In the entire Soul Master world, there is only one person who can be called the "Old Poison Master." That person is Dugu Bo, the current head of the Dugu family!
At this time, Dugu Bo's cultivation had just broken through to level 80, and he was still a seven-ring Soul Saint.

"Eighth Soul Skill, Radiant Light!"

"Om-!"

Without saying anything to Dugu Boduo, Juhua Guan couldn't wait to get those immortal herbs, and the eighth black soul ring under his feet quickly emitted a dark light.

Just for a moment.

The dazzling golden light gathered at Juhua Guan's fingertips suddenly surged, and the beam of light bursting from the core of the Qirong Tongtian Chrysanthemum tore through the air like a golden dragon, instantly turning the grass and trees in its path into scorched earth.

"Even if I die, I'll drag you down with me!"

Dugu Bo's pupils constricted sharply, and he roared in anger.

Bi Lin's true form was pushed to its limit, and the dark green poisonous mist condensed into the shape of a giant python to meet the beam of light. However, at the moment of contact, most of it was melted away by the golden light, and the residual force went straight to his chest!

Dugu Bo's eyes widened, filled with resentment.

He didn't want to die, and he couldn't die!
If he were to die now, it is foreseeable that his son and daughter-in-law would also die in the near future! Not by their enemies, but by the backlash from the snake venom they were born with!

But at this moment, Dugu Bo was powerless to do anything. He could only watch as the golden light hurtled towards his chest, and as death drew ever closer.
At this critical moment!
The thunder in the sky suddenly changed its tone, no longer roaring and thundering.
There was a moment of silence.

A massive, purplish-gold lightning bolt, as thick as a water bucket, with the force of a thunderbolt, tore the sky apart and crashed down on a distant mountain peak with terrifying power!

The lightning bolt did not reach the ground.

The surrounding space was rippled with distortions like water waves, and invisible energy fluctuations spread like shock waves, causing spatial disorder and even time to reverse!

The fallen leaves have returned to the branches, radiating vibrant green life.

Dugu Bo could clearly feel his injuries healing, only to worsen again. He oscillated between these two states.
The streak of light that was about to collide with his chest could not withstand the manipulation of this power and suddenly disintegrated, with some even flowing backwards towards Chrysanthemum Pass.

"Crack—" The energy of gold and purple collided violently in mid-air. The beam of light was instantly shattered by the violent power brought about by the spatial disorder, turning into golden dust that dissipated into the sky.

Ju Huaguan's expression changed drastically. He groaned repeatedly, a little blood spilling from the corner of his mouth. The metal chrysanthemum platform beneath his feet trembled violently, as if he had encountered some terrifying being. He looked up at the sky, his eyes filled with shock and anger.

"What's going on? Is God not helping me at all?"

"No! No!"

Juhua stared intently at the spatial rift that had appeared, her face filled with disbelief.

"Such a powerful aura! This lightning is definitely not a natural phenomenon!"

Dugu Bo was stunned. His hand, clutching his chest, trembled slightly as he looked up in the direction from which the lightning bolt had struck. Deep within the clouds, a dark, crackling gap flashed with lightning, and from within it, a crimson light gradually became clear, descending upon the world!

It was a young man dressed in white, with long blue hair, holding a blood-red longsword in his hand. His eyes were closed, and he looked extremely handsome. His body was covered by blood-red ribs and strange red and blue plants.

"who is it?!"

Chrysanthemum Pass gritted his teeth. He could clearly feel that the power contained in that blood-red aura far surpassed his own, and was even above most of the titled Douluo!
It terrified even this Contra Legend.

But the immortal herb below was far too important; he would never give it up! He would risk his life to seize it, no matter how small the chance!
The void behind the young man slowly closed, and the space began to hum. The young man had opened his eyes…

"This, this is...!!!"

Upon meeting those eyes, Ju Huaguan froze in mid-air. Enveloped in a chilling killing intent, she was completely unable to move.

"Who is this person?!"

Dugu Bo was completely restrained, his body covered in cold sweat. Even when facing a Title Douluo, he had never shown such fear.

Those were bloodshot eyes tinged with purple, with faint ripples around them. Though they seemed somewhat bewildered, they carried an overwhelming sense of oppression, enough to suffocate anyone!
Where are we?

Ye Qiu's half-step Samsara Eyes slowly swept across the area below, and he was immediately stunned.

"Senior Dugu?"

Ye Qiu stared blankly at Dugu Bo below, and could tell at a glance that his current cultivation level had just reached level eighty.

"It seems I really have returned to more than 20 years ago."

Ye Qiu muttered to himself.

Within the time tunnel, protected by the power of the Creator God, Ye Qiu remained unharmed. However, a significant portion of the Creator God's power was depleted.
It seems that his time in the past is also limited.

Seeing Dugu Bo's severely injured state, Ye Qiu quickly noticed the exposed chrysanthemum gate in front of Dugu Bo. Looking at the exposed Yin-Yang eye, he immediately pieced together the whole story.

A slightly strange expression appeared on his face.

So this is what Senior Dugu meant by saving him from danger.

It turned out that his arrival was the cause of this crisis.
However, the grudges between Chrysanthemum Douluo and Senior Dugu may indeed be related to the immortal herbs within the Ice and Fire Yin-Yang Well.

Ye Qiu knew very well Chrysanthemum Douluo's knowledge of immortal herbs, especially the Qirong Tongtian Chrysanthemum! Just by seeing Dai Mubai, he could confirm that the other party had consumed the Qirong Tongtian Chrysanthemum. Therefore, since Dugu Bo spent so many years within the Ice and Fire Yin-Yang Well, it was inevitable that he would have been exposed to the Qirong Tongtian Chrysanthemum's aura at some point.
Faced with such a rare and precious treasure that was most suitable for him, how could Chrysanthemum Douluo not be tempted?
hum!
Ye Qiu's ribs and the Blue Silver Emperor all disappeared, and he slowly floated down in front of Dugu Bo and the others, carrying a blood-red longsword.
Ju Huaguan clenched her teeth tightly.

"Who are you?"

"Don't be nervous, I won't hurt you. I just didn't expect you to be the first person to experience the power of my eyes."

Ye Qiu looked at Chrysanthemum Guan, who was still at the Contra Douluo level. His eyes, which had faint ripples, were expressionless. He stared at the other person, raised his hand, and placed it at the corner of his eye. A little bit of amazing pupil power gradually bloomed from those eyes!
The evolution of the Rinnegan is already halfway complete. Ye Qiu can feel that he can use his soul skills with ease. He doesn't even need to summon soul rings. With just a thought, all his soul skills can display unprecedented power!
Without warning, the fourth soul skill of the right eye, Martial Sun Illuminates Fate, was activated!
"W-What do you want to do?!"

Juhua Guan felt his mind become confused, and the scene before him became blurry. The fear in his heart made his lightly made-up face turn deathly pale.

"Get some sleep first..."

Ye Qiu let out a soft murmur.

"Forehead--!"

Kikuzuki Kan only exchanged a glance with Ye Qiu before his body slowly slumped down, crashing to the ground with a thud.

"!!!"

Dugu Bo, standing behind Ye Qiu, stared wide-eyed, utterly horrified!
Is this even human?!
An 89th-level Soul Douluo was glared at and shut down by a single look? Even a Title Douluo couldn't possibly do that, right?!

"Tsk, this is more relaxing than ever before."

Ye Qiu stroked the new eyes, a noble and joyful smile on his face. He turned to look at Dugu Bo.
"!!!"

Dugu Bo stepped on Bi Lin's body, his legs were shaking, and his expression changed drastically.

The Martial Soul True Body dissipated immediately.
Dugu Bo slowly landed above the valley and hurriedly bowed to Ye Qiu.

From the bottom of my heart:
"Thank you for saving my life, senior! Dugu Bo is willing to offer this precious land to you."

"Heh~"

A strange smile played on Ye Qiu's eyes.

"Senior Dugu."

"I dare not, I dare not accept such praise."

Before Ye Qiu could finish speaking, Dugu Bo quickly lowered his stance. Having barely escaped death, he didn't want to die again.

"Ha ha."

Ye Qiu smiled helplessly.

"Didn't you hear what I just said? I won't hurt you."

"..."

Dugu Bo remained silent.
He only glanced at Juhua Guan, who was still lying in the pit, his life hanging in the balance.

Ye Qiu couldn't help but chuckle and explained, "I didn't kill him; I just tampered with his memories."

"W-what?!"

Dugu Bo was shocked.
This young man in front of me actually tampered with the memories of Chrysanthemum Pass?

His cultivation level is far lower than that of Chrysanthemum Pass, so doesn't that mean... as long as the young man in front of him wants to, he can arbitrarily alter their memories and even turn them into lackeys?

Looking at Dugu Bo's quail-like appearance, Ye Qiu found it amusing and couldn't help but tease him, "After all, I don't really want to be remembered."

Hear the words.

Dugu Bo's eyes were filled with terror. When Ye Qiu's gaze fell upon him, he immediately lowered his head, not daring to look directly at him.

"Please, my benefactor, show mercy!" (End of Chapter)
