Chapter 231: Does he bring his younger brother and sister-in-law along to help him fight?
A cardinal came out of Wuhun City to greet the participating teams.
Under his guidance, the group from the Heavenly Dou Empire was settled in a hotel on the west side of the city. As soon as they were settled, Dugu Bo went to Tang Chuan's room.
"Oh? Old Poison Master, you need something from me?" Tang Chuan said with a joking smile when he saw the person who came.
Dugu Bo casually found a chair and sat down. After a moment of silence, he suddenly looked up at Tang Chuan and said in a low voice:
"Little guy, the finals of the Continental Advanced Soul Master Elite Tournament are starting in a few days. There's something I must remind you of."
Looking at Dugu Bo's suddenly serious face, Tang Chuan was slightly taken aback and said, "You mean to say that the Spirit Hall people probably won't let this go and will likely attack me again?"
"That's right." Dugu Bo nodded heavily, a hint of worry flashing in his dark green eyes. He said, "The commotion you've caused this time is too great. A 100,000-year-old spirit ring and spirit bone, plus the fact that you're Tang Hao's son—given Bibi Dong's ruthlessness and the Spirit Hall's consistent domineering nature, this matter will absolutely not be left like this!"
"During the competition, under the watchful eyes of everyone, they might still have some dignity and wouldn't dare to openly attack. But once the competition ends and the team disbands, the moment we leave Wuhun City will be the most dangerous time!"
"Don't forget, we're currently in Wuhun City, in someone else's lair! If Bibi Dong is determined and sends all the Title Douluos to attack, regardless of the cost, even with me and the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School members by our side, I'm afraid... two fists can't fight four hands!"
What he said was precisely the most dangerous aspect of the current situation. No matter how strong an individual is, they still seem somewhat weak and powerless in the core stronghold that the Spirit Hall has been cultivating for countless years.
However, faced with Dugu Bo's reasonable concern, Tang Chuan showed no sign of tension. Instead, he revealed an enigmatic, calm smile and said:
"There should be someone at the Hall of Offerings who can help me stop them. Even if she can't stop them, there should be others who will step in and not stand idly by." He paused here, his gaze seemingly piercing through the wall, looking towards the direction of the Star Dou Great Forest.
Dugu Bo gave Tang Chuan a deep look. Seeing his confident demeanor, although he didn't know what Tang Chuan was relying on, how many miracles had this kid created along the way?
"Hmph, it's good that you know what you're doing! Anyway, this old man's bones are tied to yours. If we really have to fight, I won't back down!" Dugu Bo felt a little relieved, but he still couldn't help but snort.
"Then I thank Senior Dugu in advance." Upon hearing this, Tang Chuan's smile widened, and he then cupped his hands in thanks to Dugu Bo.
"Sigh, young man, you are still young. With your talent, your potential is limitless. Before you become a true strongman, you need to be patient. Being too sharp will not do you any good," Dugu Bo said earnestly, standing up and patting Tang Chuan on the shoulder.
"Hehe, alright, I just wanted to remind you to be careful during your time in Wuhun City."
Just as Dugu Bo got up to leave, he suddenly stopped, as if remembering something, and turned back to ask, "By the way, that 100,000-year-old soul beast... well, you know. After that, what skills did the soul ring and soul bone you obtained bring?"
The allure of a 100,000-year soul ring and soul bone, which come with two powerful skills, was too great, and even this titled Douluo could not suppress his curiosity.
Upon hearing this, Tang Chuan's lips curled into a mysterious smile, a hint of eagerness flashing in his eyes. He said, "Just talking about it might not give you a deep understanding. Why don't you come out with me and try it out? You'll know then."
As soon as he finished speaking, he swayed and shot out of the open window like a wisp of smoke, his movements light and swift, without making a sound.
"Hey kid, stop being so mysterious with this old man!"
Dugu Bo laughed and cursed, but without hesitation, his dark green figure flashed like a ghost and disappeared from the room, giving chase.
The two moved at great speed, one after the other, skillfully avoiding the patrolling guards in Wuhun City. In just a few leaps, they arrived at a secluded area within the city specifically for soul masters to practice.
It was already late at night, and there was no one around.
Only the cold moonlight fell on the hard stone floor.
"Let's do it here." Tang Chuan stood with his hands behind his back, turning to face Dugu Bo, who was chasing after him.
Dugu Bo stopped about ten meters in front of him, arms crossed, and said with great interest:
"Alright, stop hiding it. Let me see what's so special about your 100,000-year-old spirit ring!"
A sly glint flashed in Tang Chuan's eyes as he said to Dugu Bo:
"Looking isn't enough to see clearly. Old Poison, try attacking me yourself, using thirty percent... no, fifty percent of your speed and strength will suffice."
"Oh? So confident?"
Dugu Bo raised an eyebrow, intrigued, and said, "Then you'd better be careful!"
The next second, without the slightest hesitation, as soon as he finished speaking, his figure flashed like a ghost, leaving only a faint dark green afterimage in place.
In the blink of an eye, he appeared in front of Tang Chuan, and then with his right hand slightly bent, he struck directly at Tang Chuan's chest with a sharp whooshing sound.
Although this palm strike was not delivered with full force, the power of a Title Douluo was already fully revealed. The palm wind surged, causing Tang Chuan's clothes to flutter backward.
However, in that split second, the blood-red sixth spirit ring beneath Tang Chuan's feet suddenly lit up. The light was not dazzling, but it carried a strange power that could reverse reality.
Dugu Bo's palm strike, which he was determined to deliver, arrived as expected. However, the anticipated collision of soul power did not materialize. The moment his palm touched Tang Chuan's body, the latter's entire body seemed to transform into a reflection in the water, becoming completely transparent and ethereal!
Dugu Bo felt his arm lighten, and he passed right through Tang Chuan's body without any hindrance! The disorientation caused by this extreme shift between reality and illusion stunned him for a moment.
At that very instant, another anomaly occurred!
A phantom yet incredibly clear pink figure suddenly emerged from Tang Chuan's ethereal body, like a spirit breaking free from its restraints!
Her long hair danced in the wind, and her eyes held a resolute and agile fighting spirit—it was Xiao Wu. This phantom was moving faster than the naked eye could perceive.
"Explosive Eight-Stage Throw!"
A cold, low shout suddenly rang in Dugu Bo's mind.
Before he could react, Dugu Bo felt his ankle being locked by an irresistible, gentle force, and then the world spun around him!
Xiao Wu's phantom seemed to transform into the eye of a storm, arching her waist and using her body as the axis to fiercely lift Dugu Bo, the dignified Title Douluo, up like a broken sack!
First fall, second fall, third fall...
Bang bang bang bang—!
A series of heavy, dense thuds exploded in the silent training ground—the sound of Dugu Bo's body colliding at high speed with the hard ground.
The pink phantom, leading the dark green figure, drew dazzling arcs in the air. The attacks were like a storm, seamlessly connected, full of the beauty of combining power and grace, and carrying a fierce and relentless aura!
The entire process lasted only a few seconds.
As Xiao Wu's phantom completed its final powerful slam, smashing Dugu Bo hard into the ground and then dissipating into specks of pink light in the air, Tang Chuan's figure also solidified again, standing firmly in place as if he had never moved.
Not far in front of him, Dugu Bo knelt on the ground, looking somewhat disheveled, supporting himself with his hands. Spiderweb-like fine cracks appeared on the ground.
He wasn't seriously injured; with the physique of a Title Douluo, he could easily withstand such an impact. However, the shock he felt was beyond measure.
"That was... the soul of that 100,000-year-old soul beast? Your 100,000-year-old soul skill can not only be immune to attacks, but also counterattack?" Dugu Bo raised his head and looked at Tang Chuan, who was calm and composed not far away, his face full of astonishment.
Tang Chuan withdrew his soul power, and the terrifying red soul ring disappeared as well. He let out a light breath and explained, "What I just used were actually two skills. One was the life-saving Void, and the other was the close-range counterattack Eight-Stage Throw."
After obtaining Xiao Wu's spirit ring, Tang Chuan gained two skills: Void and Eight-Stage Explosive Throw! Void: Immune to all physical attacks and reduces other damage by 50%. Eight-Stage Explosive Throw: Summons Xiao Wu's soul to materialize and unleash a powerful eight-stage throw attack with immense force!
In addition, he also obtained two Soul Bone Skills!
These are teleportation and invincible golden body!
Dugu Bo slowly stood up from the ground, patted off non-existent dust from his robes, his astonishment still lingering, but quickly replaced by a playful expression.
His gaze swept over the spot where Xiao Wu's illusory figure had disappeared, then turned to Tang Chuan, and he couldn't help but click his tongue, teasing him with a hint of mockery:
"Tsk tsk... kid, your soul skill is truly... marvelous!"
"Not only did you get a spirit ring and spirit bone, but you also have a younger brother and sister-in-law by your side! They can even help you beat people up when you're fighting. If that kid Tang San saw this, tsk tsk... he probably wouldn't even need to fight, he'd be so angry he'd vomit blood and die on the spot, right? Hahaha!"
