Chapter 191 Dugu Bo: I'll just poison them all to death.
Upon hearing Huo Yuhao's words, all the elders present unanimously focused their attention on this young holy son.
Their faces were filled with barely concealed excitement, as if Huo Yuhao's words had ignited a flame within them.
This operation is of extraordinary significance to the Spirit Hall. It is not just a simple mission, but the first large-scale operation launched by the Spirit Hall in recent years.
The Spirit Hall has been silent for too long; it's time to let all the forces in the world know its power once again.
If successfully completed, this will not only be a demonstration of the Spirit Hall's strength, but also a shock to the entire continent. It will be a truly monumental achievement, enough to leave a significant mark on the history of the Spirit Hall.
Looking at the elders below, who were eager to make their move, Bibi Dong couldn't help but feel a sense of disorientation.
She recalled the past of the Spirit Hall. When she was in charge of the Spirit Hall, the Papal Palace and the Hall of Worship had been arguing for several years. The entire Spirit Hall had split into two opposing factions, and the conflict between them had almost reached an irreconcilable point.
The power struggle between the Pope and the Elders created tension and unease within the Spirit Hall.
However, as Huo Yuhao gradually grew up, all of this changed dramatically.
Everyone from both factions obeyed Yuhao's orders without question.
This was simply unimaginable before. Huo Yuhao is not only the strongest in the history of the Spirit Hall in terms of talent and strength, but his influence is also the most profound among all the popes in the history of the Spirit Hall!
In this atmosphere, as always, Ghostly Demon and Chrysanthemum Pass stepped forward first, their eyes filled with unwavering loyalty. They declared in unison to Huo Yuhao, "Your Highness, we are willing to go through fire and water for you, even unto death!"
However, upon hearing Chrysanthemum Pass and Ghost's words, Thousand-Pound Douluo and Demon-Slaying Douluo immediately revealed forced smiles.
They said to Ghost and Chrysanthemum Pass with a slightly mocking tone, "Chrysanthemum Camphora, Ghost Camphora, you two should take a couple of days off. After all, didn't you just wipe out that group of evil spirit masters a couple of days ago? Can your bodies handle this constant exertion?"
Ghost and Chrysanthemum Pass were already used to this kind of provocation. After all, although the Elder Hall and the Offering Hall now obeyed Huo Yuhao's orders, some grudges between them and the Offering Hall were not so easy to let go of.
Chrysanthemum Pass wasn't about to let this opportunity slip by. He immediately retorted without holding back, "Oh dear, you two are really worrying too much. I just broke through to level ninety-seven a few days ago, and I feel perfectly fine now."
Upon hearing this news, the smiles on the faces of Qianjun Douluo and Jiangmo Douluo instantly froze.
They knew that going from level 96 to level 97 was a huge hurdle for a Soul Master.
Now that Chrysanthemum Pass has broken through level 97, it means that Bibi Dong's two generals, whom they used to look down on, have now reached the same level as themselves. They looked at each other in disbelief and then asked again, "What? You broke through level 97?" Their voices were filled with shock and disbelief.
At this moment, neither Qianjun Douluo nor Jiangmo Douluo could discern the true nature of Juhua Pass.
After all, after consuming the Qirong Tongtian Chrysanthemum in Chrysanthemum Pass, Juhua Guan not only developed an indestructible body, but also completely concealed his soul power, making it impossible for Qianjun Douluo and Jiangmo Douluo to detect the depth of his soul power.
Now, when they suddenly learn that Chrysanthemum Pass has broken through to level 97, the shock they feel is unimaginable.
Moreover, after Chrysanthemum Pass successfully broke through the bottleneck of level 97, the two of them had to re-evaluate the strength of Chrysanthemum Pass and Ghost.
After all, the bipolar stillness domain they both possessed was simply too powerful.
When the two were at level 95, the two polar stillness domains they released were enough to freeze a level 97 titled fighter.
Now, with the level 97 Chrysanthemum Pass and the level 96 Ghostly Demon joining forces, the power of the Polar Stillness Domain has undoubtedly been elevated to another level.
Their opponents, no matter how powerful a Soul Master, once trapped in the bipolar stillness domain, are like a frozen lake, unable to move.
"Oh dear, Qianjun Gongfen and Jiangmo Gongfen, why have you two suddenly become so silent? Since neither of you will speak, then I'll say a few words of fairness. You two just went to the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School with the Holy Son two weeks ago. Shouldn't we the rest of you be given a chance to deal with the four affiliated sects? Do you two want to take all the credit for yourselves? We other elders also want to stretch our muscles. Don't you all think this is reasonable?"
Chrysanthemum Pass's words carried a hint of mockery, and he immediately replied in his own uniquely sarcastic tone.
"Juhua Guan, you're trying to sow discord! What are you up to?" Qianjun couldn't help but question Juhua Guan, his voice filled with anger and dissatisfaction.
As a straight man, Qianjun Douluo has always disliked effeminate men like Juhua Guan.
"Qianjun, what are my intentions, and what are your intentions...?" Juhua Guan retorted sarcastically, her tone laced with provocation.
The atmosphere between the two became tense, as if a fierce battle could break out at any moment.
"Alright, alright, stop arguing. How about I go with Yuhao this time?"
Just as the four were arguing, Light Feather Douluo stepped forward. His eyes showed no desire for fame or achievement, only an obsession with playing.
Seeing the look in Guangling Douluo's eyes, Qingluan Douluo knew without a second thought what the other was thinking, and slowly said, "Guangling, don't be silly, sit down."
Hearing Qingluan Douluo's words, Guangling had no choice but to obediently sit down and look at him with a pitiful expression.
"Alright, everyone, stop arguing. How about I make the trip instead?" Dugu Bo slowly stood up, smiling as he looked at the four arguing people. His voice revealed a sense of composure and confidence.
Dugu Bo's confidence was not unfounded. His poison skills were unparalleled, and he was absolutely certain that he could deal with opponents below the Title Douluo level.
His words carried a hint of mockery, as if he were describing a relaxed hunt.
"You? What makes you think you can go?"
Upon hearing Dugu Bo's words, the four of them almost unanimously questioned Dugu Bo, who was standing in front of them.
In their view, Dugu Bo was not qualified to carry out this mission on their behalf at all.
Faced with such skepticism, Dugu Bo merely smiled slightly, a smile tinged with confidence and disdain. He surveyed everyone present, then slowly said, "Hehehe, it seems the four of you have forgotten who is the strongest against opponents below the Title Douluo level?"
Dugu Bo continued, "Have you ever witnessed my poison techniques? They're so potent that even the wind can't escape them. I can make the poison seep silently into the enemy's body, causing them to collapse without even realizing it. Think about it, who else can do that?"
He paused, his gaze sharp, and continued, "I, Dugu Bo, have roamed the martial world for many years and have never failed. My poison is silent and insidious, impossible to defend against. Just think, if I were to make a move, could those affiliated sects' Soul Masters withstand it?"
Dugu Bo's words revealed a powerful confidence and absolute trust in his poison skills. He continued, "You know, poison isn't just for killing; it can also be used to control and intimidate. I can make them struggle in pain, and subdue them in fear. Tell me, isn't that ability enough to convince you?"
His words carried a hint of provocation: "If you think someone is more suitable for this task than me, then please speak up. But I must remind you, time is of the essence, and we cannot waste time on pointless arguments. If you don't have a better candidate, then please trust me. I, Dugu Bo, am absolutely capable of completing this task. As long as I take action, I guarantee that I will poison all four affiliated sects, leaving not even a fly behind. The eggs will be poisoned into rotten eggs, and the earthworms will be poisoned into seaweed. If even one of the four affiliated sects survives, I will admit defeat."
Upon hearing Dugu Bo's words, the four people who had been arguing were clearly stunned.
After a long while, Juhua Guan finally said weakly, "There's no need to be so ruthless..." His voice trembled slightly, clearly frightened by Dugu Bo's harsh words.
Juhua Guan thought he was ruthless enough, but compared to Dugu Bo, he was just a greenhorn.
Even Huo Yuhao couldn't help but stand up and say, "Ahem, Elder Dugu, this operation really didn't need to be so ruthless. We should still try to persuade the obedient sects to surrender. If we really kill them all, it will only cause panic among other sects and forces, and they might even unite against us. We want to strengthen our own power and establish the prestige of the Spirit Hall, not let all sects and forces fall into panic."
Upon hearing Huo Yuhao speak, Dugu Bo shook his head and slowly sat down, muttering, "Then I'd better not go. Scheming isn't my forte."
Taking this opportunity, Huo Yuhao took a deep breath and continued, "Esteemed elders, I have already conceived some preliminary plans for our upcoming operation. First, I believe that we must have an elder with extremely high authority involved in this operation. This elder's strength must be so great that our four affiliated sects would not dare to have the slightest thought of resistance."
As soon as Huo Yuhao finished speaking, some elders and retainers tacitly guessed who the elder Huo Yuhao was referring to was. They all turned their gazes to the Golden Crocodile Douluo sitting in the corner, their eyes filled with respect and anticipation.
Golden Crocodile Douluo was already a super strong expert at level ninety-eight. His strength was well-known within the Spirit Hall.
Moreover, he possesses a precious Ten Directions Year Soul Ring, which makes him virtually invincible among those of the same level.
After absorbing the legendary Earth Dragon Golden Melon, his Golden Crocodile King Martial Soul underwent a qualitative leap, directly evolving into the even more powerful Golden Crocodile Dragon.
This change greatly enhanced his strength. Although he has not yet broken through the limit of level 99, he has reached the peak of level 98.
Golden Crocodile Douluo's personal power is already astonishing enough, and his Golden Crocodile Dragon Martial Soul is even more powerful.
Once he summons his Martial Soul True Body, which is hundreds of meters long, the shocking scene is enough to make even an ordinary Title Douluo feel breathless and instantly suppressed to the point of being unable to move.
Under everyone's watchful eyes, Golden Crocodile Douluo slowly stood up from his seat. Although his movements were slow, they were filled with undeniable majesty.
He looked around, his gaze finally settling on Huo Yuhao, and stated firmly and calmly, "Since this is the Holy Son's will, then I will respectfully obey and am willing to go with him to serve the sect."
Golden Crocodile Douluo's words echoed in the conference room, and his promise undoubtedly reassured everyone present.
Seeing that Golden Crocodile Douluo had already spoken, Chrysanthemum Pass Ghostly Thousand Jun and Demon Subduing naturally dared not act rashly and obediently sat back down in their chairs.
A faint smile appeared on Huo Yuhao's face as he politely addressed the Golden Crocodile Offering, "Then I'll have to trouble the Golden Crocodile Offering this time. By the way, besides the Golden Crocodile Offering, I also hope that the Azure Phoenix Offering can accompany us."
Upon hearing Huo Yuhao's request, Qingluan Douluo nodded slightly in agreement.
Huo Yuhao arranged for Qingluan Douluo to go with him, but there were actually deeper considerations and plans behind it.
Among the four major affiliated sects of Douluo Continent, each sect has its unique characteristics and troublesome aspects. Among them, the Titan Sect of Mighty King is known for its strength, while Yang Wudi can withstand a Title Douluo with the strength of a Soul Douluo. However, these are not what Huo Yuhao is most worried about. After all, in Huo Yuhao's eyes, these two are still too weak.
What truly troubled him was the Min clan, known as the fastest flying Soul Master on the continent, and its patriarch, Bai He.
Huo Yuhao has a deep understanding of the Min clan.
It is said that the Soul Masters of the Min Clan possess a family curse that grants them exceptional talent and extremely fast cultivation speed in the early stages of their Soul Master training.
However, as their cultivation level increases, their cultivation speed gradually slows down in the later stages, which results in the Min clan's soul masters having an exceptionally solid foundation.
Despite this, the White Crane Clan Chief was still able to overcome the curse and cultivate to the level 80 Soul Douluo realm, which is enough to prove how terrifying his strength is.
Huo Yuhao knew that if Bai He really decided to escape, he would have a hard time catching up with him given his speed.
In the Douluo Continent, there are very few who can rival Bai He in speed.
As far as Huo Yuhao knew, there were only two people who could outrun the white crane. One was Qian Daoliu, and the other was none other than the Azure Phoenix Douluo!
However, Qian Daoliu had to guard the Spirit Hall, so naturally he couldn't leave.
Huo Yuhao recognized this point, which is why he decided to send Qingluan Douluo along to ensure that they would have sufficient confidence and strategies to deal with the Min clan.
Now that he had decided to deal with the four affiliated sects, Huo Yuhao was determined not to leave a single one behind.
