Chapter 172: Dugu Bo: My Dugu Family is saved!
[The video continues...]
[Not long after, Dugu Bo and Lin Lang also successively unlocked their Soul Ring Soul Power storage functions.]
[Like children with new toys, they curiously tried to perform Martial Soul Abilities through the Soul Power stored in their Soul Rings.]
[The feeling was quite wonderful.]
[After some experimentation and their moods settled, the way they looked at Yu Xiaogang became respectful.]
[Especially Dugu Bo.]
[Previously, in his eyes, Yu Xiaogang was someone who had successfully changed his Heaven-Defying fate and seized the opportunity to become strong.]
[Besides that, Yu Xiaogang treated the internal members of his own faction very well.]
[In Dugu Bo's view, this was already very good.]
[Because this was the best template for a leader of a faction that attracted many strong individuals to join.]
[However, now Yu Xiaogang had once again demonstrated his ability in theory and research.]
[Martial Souls have appeared on the Douluo Continent for so many years that even the earliest history is no longer traceable.]
[In all these years, no one had ever discovered that the Soul Rings that follow them throughout their lives could actually be used to store Soul Power.]
[Although Yu Xiaogang was able to discover this secret due to a flash of inspiration.]
[But it is precisely this flash of inspiration that is the most difficult to come by.]
[Thinking of Yu Xiaogang's flash of inspiration, Dugu Bo suddenly realized something.]
[The reason Yu Xiaogang discovered the secret of the Soul Rings was mainly because he had told him about the drawbacks of his own Martial Soul.]
[As for how the other party thought it through, Dugu Bo didn't care for the moment.]
[What he cared more about was that since Yu Xiaogang could discover the secret of the Soul Rings through the problems of his own Jade Phosphor Serpent Martial Soul.]
[Doesn't that mean Soul Rings could also solve the drawbacks of his own Martial Soul?]
[Thinking of this, Dugu Bo's heart began to pound.]
[If it were really so, he and his son would be saved, and from now on, their Dugu Family would no longer have to suffer from the Spirit Poison.]
[So Dugu Bo took a deep breath, calmed his emotions, and then began to mobilize the toxins in his body, moving them toward the Soul Rings.]
[Unfortunately, to Dugu Bo's disappointment, the toxins in his body did not transfer to the Soul Rings as he had envisioned.]
[When the Soul Power mixed with toxins passed through the "valve" of the Soul Ring, the Soul Power entered without any hindrance, but the toxins were left outside.]
["This..."]
[Dugu Bo didn't believe it and tried again to transport the toxins into the Soul Ring, but the result was the same as before; the toxins simply could not enter the Soul Ring.]
[Dugu Bo's mood quickly plummeted, but he did not give up.]
[Summoning his Second Soul Ring, Dugu Bo circulated his Soul Power and activated the Second Soul Ring's storage function.]
[Then, following his previous method, he transported the toxins into the Second Soul Ring.]
[But the result was still the same; they simply wouldn't go in.]
["I can't get them in... Could it be that the heavens want to destroy my Dugu Family?"]
[Dugu Bo slumped to the ground, dejected.]
[Since the Soul Rings can already store Soul Power, why can't the toxins transformed from Soul Power enter the Soul Rings?]
Black World, somewhere in the Sunset Forest.
"Yeah, why doesn't it work?"
Dugu Bo also slumped to the ground, his face pale.
He had reacted even faster than the version of himself in the heavenly curtain to transport the toxins into the Soul Rings.
But the result was just like his counterpart in the heavenly curtain; the toxins could not enter the Soul Rings.
The greater the hope, the greater the disappointment.
At this moment, Dugu Bo felt as if his spine had been removed, and he couldn't even sit steadily.
He thought he and his granddaughter Yan Yan were finally saved, but it turned out to be a false joy.
Just as Dugu Bo's face was filled with dejection, Yu Xiaogang's voice came from the heavenly curtain.
Instantly, Dugu Bo looked up, and a glimmer of light returned to his eyes.
He couldn't do it, but Yu Xiaogang might.
Since the heavenly curtain began broadcasting, Yu Xiaogang had created too many miracles.
He had achieved many things that ordinary people could not do, or even imagine.
If even Yu Xiaogang couldn't solve his Martial Soul's problem, then Dugu Bo would truly be willing to accept his fate.
[The video continues...]
["Elder Dugu, what's wrong?"]
[Yu Xiaogang, seeing Dugu Bo's dejected look from not far away, immediately spoke up and asked.]
["I... I thought that since Soul Rings could store Soul Power, the toxins in my body should also be able to be stored in them."]
["But I tried, and they won't go in, not at all."]
[Hearing Yu Xiaogang's voice, Dugu Bo felt as if he had grasped a life-saving straw.]
["Young Sect Master, your mind is the smartest I've ever seen. Please, help me think of a way. As long as you can help us solve this problem, our Dugu Family is willing to follow the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Sect for generations."]
[At this moment, Dugu Bo's voice carried an almost pleading tone.]
[The previous failure was a massive blow to him, greater than the sum of all his past failures.]
["The toxins can't enter the Soul Rings?"]
["Uh... Elder Dugu, are you trying to directly transport the toxins accumulated in your body into the Soul Rings?"]
[Yu Xiaogang looked at Dugu Bo.]
["That's right, exactly."]
[Dugu Bo nodded, not understanding why Yu Xiaogang would ask that.]
["Elder Dugu, look, when you absorbed your eighth spirit ring, the Medusa spirit ring was absorbed, and then Medusa provided your Martial Soul with a new type of toxin."]
["But this toxin is generated within your body through your Jade Phosphor Serpent Emperor Martial Soul."]
["Soul Rings don't directly provide you with finished toxins."]
[Hearing this, Dugu Bo seemed to realize something.]
["You mean..."]
["It's just as you think. A single Soul Ring only provides one type of toxin, yet you're trying to store a toxin generated by the mixture of seven or eight Soul Rings into it."]
["Toxins aren't pure Soul Power; they are products that have already been influenced by the Martial Soul."]
[Having said this, Yu Xiaogang glanced at the Soul Rings around Dugu Bo.]
["Your Martial Soul has evolved, but the Soul Rings haven't."]
[These few simple words were like a sudden enlightenment, making Dugu Bo understand his mistake.]
[Yes, the poison in his body was a lethal poison generated by mixing multiple toxins. Transporting these mixed lethal poisons into a Soul Ring that provides only a single toxin?]
[It would be a miracle if it could actually enter!]
[Understanding the key point, Dugu Bo thanked Yu Xiaogang and then impatiently began to try again.]
[This time, a smile finally appeared on Dugu Bo's face.]
[Because this time, he individually controlled the First Soul Ring to produce toxins, even though his Martial Soul was no longer the Jade Phosphor Serpent of back then.]
[But Dugu Bo knew the situation of these toxins perfectly well.]
[So very quickly, the toxins Dugu Bo had used back when he was still a one-ring Spirit Master were generated. He sent these toxins toward the First Soul Ring, and this time, without any hindrance, the toxins successfully entered the Soul Ring.]
[Feeling the toxins stored within the Soul Ring, the heart Dugu Bo had been holding in suspense finally settled down.]
[His son, and the descendants of their Dugu Family, were saved!]
