Douluo: Emerald Poison Emperor-Chapter 330: Douluo: Emerald Poison Emperor []

"If it were an ordinary person, seeing a 100,000-year soul beast in human form, they would undoubtedly kill it immediately. Even if it meant wasting the 100,000-year soul ring, they would never give up on obtaining the 100,000-year soul bone. And if they had a younger generation in their family capable of absorbing a 100,000-year soul ring, they would surely capture the beast alive, prepare it, and then attempt to absorb the soul ring."

Chen Ming took a step forward, and the phantom of the Jade Phosphorus Snake Emperor coiled around his arm expanded, spiraling around him. In a cold, raspy voice, he softly asked Tang Hao:

"A 100,000-year soul beast in human form surviving in the presence of a Titled Douluo—aside from possessing the strength to resist a Titled Douluo—there are probably only two reasons for this."

"One, the Titled Douluo has some sort of relationship with the soul beast. Not only do they not want to kill it, but they also want to protect it, eliminating anyone who might discover its true form. The second..."

"I guess the only other possibility is that the Titled Douluo is scheming to have the 100,000-year soul beast offer itself as a sacrifice for someone, right?"

A green light spewed from the mouth of the Jade Phosphorus Snake Emperor. It wasn't a soul skill but pure poison-attributed soul power, capable of instantly breaking through the defenses of a Soul Douluo and killing them on the spot.

Sensing this dangerous aura, Tang Hao, instead of evading, was provoked. His eyes turned blood-red as he took a step forward. With a grasp of his right hand in mid-air, a massive Clear Sky Hammer appeared in his grip. Nine soul rings—yellow, yellow, purple, purple, black, black, black, black, red—emerged around him, fully exposing the aura of a Titled Douluo.

Without using any soul skill, Tang Hao swung his hammer, smashing it heavily into the green light. After a brief moment of resistance, the green light, capable of killing a Soul Douluo, was shattered. From a distance, the fragmented green light seemed to form the image of a hat atop Tang Hao's head.

Though it lasted only for a moment, during that brief instant, the green hat appeared exceptionally vivid.

Under his black robes, a pair of bloodshot eyes, red with rage, stared intently at Dugu Bo. The imposing aura from Tang Hao's body pressed toward his opponent, and the Clear Sky Hammer seemed ready to strike again at any moment.

Facing this scene, Chen Ming, disguised as Dugu Bo, naturally feigned surprise. The phantom of the Jade Phosphorus Snake Emperor, which had been flicking its tongue, coiled into a defensive posture.

"The Clear Sky Hammer, a Titled Douluo, a 100,000-year soul ring... What a surprise. I didn't expect that the Clear Sky Douluo, who has been missing for over a decade, would appear in such a remote place."

"Back when the Spirit Hall besieged the Clear Sky Sect and forced it into seclusion, you didn't show up. Many on the continent rumored that you were either dead or crippled. Over the years, some speculated that you might have returned to the Clear Sky Sect."

"But who would've thought that the Clear Sky Douluo, who became enemies with the Spirit Hall over a 100,000-year soul beast, would set his sights on another 100,000-year soul beast in human form? Well, it makes sense—after all, a 100,000-year soul beast taking human form only happens once in a millennium. Who would expect someone to encounter such a thing twice in a lifetime?"

"Dugu Bo, you know too much!"

Now that he had summoned his martial soul, Tang Hao no longer bothered hiding his identity. Swinging the Clear Sky Hammer, he struck directly at Dugu Bo. The force contained in the strike was as heavy as a mountain, capable of easily destroying the martial soul true body of a Soul Sage.

Although it didn't seem like Tang Hao used a soul skill, this attack was comparable to one. The strike wasn't just a simple hammer swing—it incorporated the "Collapse" and "Break" techniques from the Clear Sky Sect's Nine Absolutes.

Regardless of his character, Tang Hao's talent in this era was undeniable. While he preferred brute force to overwhelm opponents, his mastery of the Clear Sky Nine Absolutes was exceptional. Among them, the explosive "Collapse" and "Break" techniques were his specialties.

"Jade Phosphorus Violet Poison!"

Following the habits of Douluo Continent soul masters, Chen Ming, disguised as Dugu Bo, shouted the name of his technique before releasing purple poison gas.

The purple poison gas condensed into the form of a poisonous mist serpent, coiling toward the Clear Sky Hammer. Upon contact, most of the serpent's body was destroyed by the internal force of the hammer and the gusts it generated. However, the remaining part of the serpent reformed into a poisonous mist, which condensed briefly before taking the shape of small purple snakes that slithered up the hammer toward Tang Hao.

Unwilling to test the potency of Dugu Bo's poison on his already injured body, Tang Hao let out a low growl, circulated his soul power, and used the "Flick" technique to shake off the poisonous snakes. He then retreated a few steps, eyeing Dugu Bo warily.

"Poison Douluo truly lives up to his name." Tang Hao's words sounded like praise, but in his heart, he was calculating whether he could suddenly launch an attack and kill Dugu Bo with his Clear Sky Hammer. However, after glancing at the phantom of the Jade Phosphorus Snake Emperor beside Dugu Bo, Tang Hao gritted his teeth and abandoned the idea.

Tang Hao wasn't curious about why Dugu Bo didn't reveal his soul rings—it wasn't unheard of, though it was rare.

Some powerful soul masters with unique cultivation paths could condense their soul rings into their martial souls, merging them to alter the martial soul and gain extraordinary abilities. In Tang Hao's view, Dugu Bo was using this method.

Although Dugu Bo hadn't summoned his soul rings or martial soul visibly, in reality, he had already summoned them in a concealed manner. The phantom of the Jade Phosphorus Snake Emperor was the manifestation of his martial soul and soul rings. Unlike Tang Hao, Dugu Bo had been fully prepared from the start, which explained his ability to suppress the world's strongest tool martial soul.

The two stood in a tense standoff. The phantom of the Jade Phosphorus Snake Emperor flicked its tongue at Tang Hao, while Tang Hao held his Clear Sky Hammer, ready to strike. After a long silence, Tang Hao sighed and stepped back.

"Poison Douluo, a 100,000-year soul beast is a rare treasure of heaven and earth. As Titled Douluo, you and I both understand the value of a 100,000-year soul beast. Whether it's the soul ring or the soul bone, it can transform a soul master's destiny. We both know it's impossible to simply let it go."

"I understand. Isn't your ninth soul ring from your wife? A 100,000-year soul beast in human form sacrificed itself for you, causing the greatest turmoil the continent had seen in nearly a century. Thinking back, you must've used deceit to lure that 100,000-year soul beast into sacrificing itself for you, right?"

"That boy earlier, the one so close to the 100,000-year soul beast, his name is Tang San, and his martial soul is Blue Silver Grass. Now that I think about it, he must be your child, right?"

"Seeing their closeness, it seems you've already been secretly planning how to have that little rabbit sacrifice herself for your son. Just like the rumors say—back when your soul power was stuck at the Soul Douluo level and Qian Xunji was hunting you, you were pushed to the brink, forcing the 100,000-year soul beast to sacrifice itself for you."

"To encounter someone like you... truly, it's the misfortune of 100,000-year soul beasts."

Hearing Dugu Bo's words, Tang Hao's eyes flashed with murderous intent. He nearly couldn't resist swinging his hammer again. But seeing that, despite his slightly relaxed aura, Dugu Bo's defense remained unbroken, Tang Hao ultimately held back, letting out a displeased grunt. He silently added Dugu Bo to his mental list of enemies.

Some things should never be known—whether guessed or deduced, they must never be spoken aloud. Especially if it's the truth, it must be kept hidden at all costs.

During the earlier standoff, Tang Hao had only harbored malice toward Dugu Bo, intending to kill him to prevent any leaks about Xiao Wu and to stop him from coveting her. But now, in Tang Hao's heart, Dugu Bo had truly earned the right to die.

Though Tang Hao knew he couldn't deal with him today, in the future, if there was an opportunity, not only would Tang Hao not spare Dugu Bo, but he wouldn't even let his bloodline and family escape his wrath.
