Chapter 71 Poison Pill, Yin-Yang Complementary Dual Soul Core.
"Poison pills, soul cores, what are these things?" Dugu Bo frowned, his eyes filled with deep doubt. He looked at Huo Yuhao, expecting an explanation.
Huo Yuhao took a deep breath and began to explain in detail: "Condensing a poison pill is a special cultivation method. It involves gathering all the toxins in your body little by little until they eventually form something similar to a dantian."
"This poison pill is like a warehouse for storing toxins. You can inject all the toxins in your body into this poison pill. In this way, when you need to use poison techniques, you no longer need to draw toxins from various parts of your body, but can release them directly from the poison pill."
Huo Yuhao paused for a moment, then continued, "As for the soul core, it is an energy core that naturally appears in the body of a soul master after reaching the title of Douluo. The essence of this core is the core of your soul power after it has solidified. You can think of it as a source of energy that can make your soul power more condensed and more powerful."
Hearing Huo Yuhao's explanation, Dugu Bo nodded. He did indeed possess a solid soul core, something every Title Douluo had. However, he found Huo Yuhao's use of the term "soul core" novel; it was the first time he had heard it called that.
Dugu Bo then raised his question: "I can understand what you mean by condensing poison pills, but what do you mean by condensing soul cores? I already have a soul core."
Huo Yuhao patiently explained, "What I mean is, you can try using the Poison Pill as your second soul core. During the process of condensing the Poison Pill, gather all the toxins in your body into the Poison Pill, and at the same time, connect the Poison Pill with your original first soul core to form two soul cores."
"These two soul cores can complement each other, promoting each other. This will not only greatly improve the quality of the poison pills, but also, if you successfully condense the Yin-Yang complementary dual soul cores, you will not only successfully solve the problem of your martial soul's defects, but your strength will also be greatly enhanced."
Huo Yuhao continued, "However, the whole process is extremely painful and difficult. You will have to endure both physical and mental torment, and the process is full of uncertainty. If you are not careful, you may lose everything. But if you succeed, you will not only be able to completely eliminate the toxins from your body, but also gain powerful strength to make up for the defects of your martial soul. You may even be able to break through the current cultivation limit and reach a higher realm."
Hearing Huo Yuhao's words, Dugu Bo smiled slightly, his eyes flashing with determination: "Hehehe, I've been through so many years, do you think I'd be afraid of this little bit of pain? Go ahead and start. I want to see what kind of changes this so-called Yin-Yang complementary dual soul core can bring me."
However, after hearing Dugu Bo's words, Huo Yuhao said somewhat awkwardly, "Um, Senior Dugu Bo, I don't have enough soul power to guide you in condensing your soul core yet."
Huo Yuhao's voice carried a hint of apology.
"What did you say?" Upon hearing Huo Yuhao's words, Dugu Bo was so angry that he puffed out his beard and glared at him. "You brat, are you deliberately trying to toy with me? You said all that, and now you're telling me you don't have enough soul power..."
Dugu Bo's anger erupted like a volcano, his eyes flashing with disbelief. His voice was filled with disappointment and rage, as if he wanted to devour Huo Yuhao.
Seeing that Dugu Bo was about to lose his temper, Huo Yuhao quickly explained, "Senior Dugu, please don't misunderstand. I don't think I'm playing a trick on you. I can refine some pills right now to temporarily suppress the poison in your and your granddaughter's bodies. Moreover, I can help your granddaughter suppress all the toxins in her body into her soul bone. Since your granddaughter is still young, there is no need to worry about the toxins erupting in her soul bone before she becomes a Title Douluo."
Hearing Huo Yuhao's words, Dugu Bo's expression softened: "Alright, you can refine the pills to suppress the toxins in our bodies first. I'll go to the Heaven Dou Royal Academy to pick up my granddaughter. You can use everything here."
"Don't worry, senior, I will do my best," Huo Yuhao replied firmly, watching Dugu Bo transform into a streak of light and disappear into the horizon.
Not long after Dugu Bo's figure disappeared from sight, Tianmeng Ice Silkworm and Ice Emperor quietly flew out of Huo Yuhao's body, like two streaks of light.
Hyotei landed lightly on Huo Yuhao's shoulder.
Tianmeng Ice Silkworm lazily lay on Huo Yuhao's head, squinting its eyes, and said in a nonchalant tone, "Yuhao, is it really necessary to go through all this trouble? If you want the immortal herbs here, just kill Dugu Bo. Why go to all this trouble to help him?"
Tianmeng Ice Silkworm's thinking seemed to be stuck in the law of the jungle in the world of soul beasts. In his opinion, Huo Yuhao was fully capable of taking care of Dugu Bo directly.
Although Ice Empress didn't speak, her slight nod revealed that she agreed with Tianmeng Ice Silkworm's viewpoint. In the world of soul beasts, strength is everything; the strong survive, the weak are eliminated—this has been their long-standing law of survival.
Huo Yuhao smiled slightly, understanding that although Tianmeng Ice Silkworm and Ice Emperor's suggestions seemed simple and crude, their starting point was also to protect him.
Huo Yuhao said softly, "Alright, Bingdi, Tianmeng-ge, of course I can kill and rob, but if I really did that, how would I be any different from Tang San? If I were really that kind of person, would you still believe in me so firmly?"
"As the saying goes, it's better to have one more friend than one more enemy. Besides, Dugu Bo's poison is very potent, and we might be able to use it in the future."
Hearing Huo Yuhao's answer, Electrolux in his mental sea nodded with satisfaction: "Not bad, Yuhao, you're becoming more and more mature. As for the big bug, your ideological awareness still needs improvement!"
Tianmeng Ice Silkworm curled her lip in disdain, her tone tinged with skepticism: "Tch, you old codger, all you do is lecture me. But Yuhao, with your current soul power level, can you really help Dugu Bo condense his second soul core? After all, your soul power level is only level twenty-eight."
Huo Yuhao slowly replied, "I'm not entirely confident right now, but I estimate that once my soul power level reaches level 40, it should be enough. After all, the quality and reserves of my soul power are much greater than those of ordinary soul masters. In the meantime, I plan to first resolve the poison problem of Dugu Bo's granddaughter, Dugu Yan."
"Moreover, with these immortal herbs, I believe that reaching level 40 will not be too far away for me. At most, three years should be enough."
Huo Yuhao paused for a moment, his gaze deep.
"Moreover, I also have some ideas that I want to put into practice through Dugu Bo. I plan to help the elders and elders of the Spirit Hall to condense Yin-Yang complementary dual soul cores in the future, especially Grandpa Qian and Teacher Dong'er. Once they successfully condense Yin-Yang complementary dual soul cores, the overall strength of the Spirit Hall will be enhanced like never before."
As Huo Yuhao spoke, he skillfully began to organize the various medicinal herbs one by one, his movements fluid and precise.
Then, Huo Yuhao took out a level four alchemy furnace from his storage soul tool and added the prepared medicinal herbs into it one by one. As the herbs were added, a unique and enticing aroma began to fill the air.
In the field of alchemy, Huo Yuhao can be said to have reached a level of consummate skill.
After all, in his previous life, Huo Yuhao had successfully refined the legendary Qiankun Creation Pill, so these low-level pills were even less of a challenge.
Time flew by, and in less than an hour, Huo Yuhao had already refined a whole batch of pills. These pills were enough for Dugu Bo to consume for several months.
Just as the pills were finished, Dugu Bo's surprised voice came from the horizon: "What a fragrant medicinal smell! Kid, you've already refined the pills?"
