The green blade, condensed from the Jade Phosphor Serpent Emperor's deadly poison and immense soul power, slashed through the sky like the scythe of death, carrying with it a devastating force as it shot straight toward Yan.
However, at that decisive moment, Yan vanished from where he stood in an almost inconceivable manner, as if he had melded into the air itself, leaving behind only a faint trace of crimson-golden afterimage.
Dugu Bo's pupils shrank sharply his meticulously planned sneak attack had failed.
But what shocked him even more was the sudden surge of an unprecedented burning sensation from behind him.
It felt as if his back had been slashed open by something.
It was like being scorched by the blazing sun, or engulfed by molten lava. The pain penetrated his very bones, making it unbearable.
Dugu Bo spun around abruptly, only to see that Yan had somehow appeared behind him without a sound. In those crimson-golden eyes flickered calmness and resolve.
Dozens of crimson-golden fire blades were kicked out from Yan's left leg, all aimed directly at Dugu Bo.
Dugu Bo instinctively wanted to raise a defense, but a foreboding premonition arose in his heart even his Serpent Python Sky Armor Shield might not withstand the attack of those crimson-golden flame blades.
In a desperate move, Dugu Bo twisted his body and shot into the sky.
His back still stung sharply, and a wave of unprecedented shock and unease surged in his heart.
He had never imagined that Yan would possess such astonishing speed and destructive power.
In his understanding, although Yan was young and promising, he ultimately lacked experience and would likely reuse the same evasive strategy with his Blazing Flame Wings as he had during the Soul Master Tournament.
Yet the current Yan seemed like a completely reborn individual, displaying a composure and maturity far beyond his years.
Dugu Bo was filled with alarm he realized that Yan's strength had far exceeded his estimation.
Yan's speed was so fast, it bordered on teleportation. This kind of ability was extremely rare among soul masters, even for someone like him.
What filled him with even more despair was that as Yan got closer, the suppressive force of that crimson-golden light intensified.
The searing pain that dug into his very bones caused even the toxins in his body to tremble and lose their former arrogance.
Dugu Bo was deeply unwilling.
"Damn it! I, a dignified Title Douluo, am actually being restrained by that brat! How could this be?! Just what has he experienced over the past few years?!"
Just as Dugu Bo was mulling over his thoughts, Yue Guan's attack followed like a shadow.
Yue Guan's offensive was fiercer than any before the golden chrysanthemum petal blades carried a destructive force as they closed in on Dugu Bo.
At the same time, Yan's figure moved again.
A crimson-golden afterimage streaked across the sky, and in an instant, he was once more behind Dugu Bo, launching several scorching flame blade strikes.
Yan didn't even release his soul rings.
Dugu Bo speculated that it was likely a soul bone ability.
Facing a pincer attack from both front and back, Dugu Bo felt an unprecedented pressure and crisis.
Only now did he realize that these two had not come to Sunset Forest by chance they were here to take his life.
Dugu Bo's eighth soul skill, Time Freeze, possessed an extremely terrifying effect. It could lock time within a radius of several thousand square meters.
When paired with his ninth soul skill, Jade Phosphor Divine Light, it could even destroy an entire city.
But at this moment, he didn't dare to use either soul skill lightly.
Because both required an enormous consumption of soul power.
He couldn't be sure just how strongly Yan's crimson-golden flames restrained him.
If he failed to restrict his opponents, the consequences would be unimaginable.
What's more, Yan also had a teleportation skill and could potentially escape his control entirely.
Dugu Bo clenched his teeth.
If only he had some reinforcements by his side, he wouldn't be in such a passive position.
Now, the only thing he could rely on was the Mother and Child Pursuing Soul-Devouring Gallbladder.
Yan and Yue Guan seized the opportunity and launched another attack.
Yan's scorching flames and Yue Guan's eerie soul techniques struck toward Dugu Bo simultaneously, enveloping him in an oppressive wave of pressure.
This time, Dugu Bo didn't evade.
He knew that this counterattack would determine the outcome of the battle.
In this life-and-death moment, Dugu Bo suddenly waved his hand, and the two Mother and Child Pursuing Soul-Devouring Gallbladders simultaneously flew out, piercing through the air and colliding perfectly.
"Die!"
"Boom!"
A deafening explosion echoed out.
At the center of the blast, a thick black poisonous mist rapidly expanded, instantly engulfing the entire battlefield.
The poisonous fog carried a strong paralytic effect an ordinary person inhaling even a little would fall into a coma for over ten days, and even powerful spirit masters would be affected, their speed significantly hindered.
Hundreds of fine poison needles, propelled by the explosion, shot toward Yan and Yue Guan like a torrential rain.
These poison needles were not only astonishingly fast but also carried lethal toxins in each one. Even a Title Douluo-level powerhouse would struggle to resist them.
However, Yan and Yue Guan were well prepared.
As the two iron balls flew out, Yue Guan's figure flashed, swiftly evading the blast range.
Yan instantly teleported behind Dugu Bo once again.
Left Leg Soul Bone Skill Flame Blade Chain Kick, activated.
Blazing flame blades shot straight at Dugu Bo.
The heart-piercing burn struck once more.
Dugu Bo had miscalculated again.
No time to think, he soared into the sky with all his strength, a green silhouette vanishing into the horizon.
The surroundings fell silent.
Yue Guan looked toward Yan, smiling:
"Yan, just as you said, Dugu Bo really used extremely lethal hidden weapons."
"Yeah, good thing we were prepared. Otherwise, the consequences would've been unimaginable."
Yue Guan nodded with satisfaction.
"That's right. Fortunately, you absorbed that hundred-thousand-year soul bone, granting you teleportation and the power of the Ten Headed Fierce Serpent to suppress Dugu Bo. Even if you were facing him alone, you wouldn't be at a disadvantage. Unfortunately, my speed still can't match his, and he got away again."
"His speed is too fast. My current strength still isn't enough. The power of the Ten Headed Fierce Serpent can suppress him, but it's not enough to trap him. Still, I believe he'll eventually die at our hands."
"Of course!"
Yan looked ahead at the Snake Poison Array and said:
"Teacher, Dugu Bo probably won't return to his lair. Let's head to the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well to collect the immortal herbs."
"Alright, haha~"
About to enter the long-desired Immortal Herb Garden, Yue Guan was overjoyed.
The two flew into the poison formation, heading straight for their target.
Yan's flame blades had left grazes on Dugu Bo's back.
Dugu Bo, enduring the pain, swiftly fled the Sunset Forest, heading toward Heaven Dou City.
He had a bad feeling that Yan would take Yue Guan to the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well to gather the immortal herbs.
He had to stop that from happening he couldn't let Yan and Yue Guan take the herbs away.
Fortunately, the Sunset Forest wasn't far from Heaven Dou City.
Now, the only ones who could help him might be Yu Xiaogang, Flender, and Liu Erlong.
With their combined strength forming the Golden Iron Triangle, they were comparable to a Title Douluo.
With their help, he would be even more confident in dealing with Yue Guan and Yan.
