Chapter 148: Continuing the Battle Against Ghost Douluo

"I don't know why, but this Old Poison's strength has suddenly increased by so much. The toxicity of his Jade Phosphor Serpent Emperor poison has exceeded the limit of my Strange Velvet Sky Chrysanthemum's resistance, and the power of his Medusa Gaze has far surpassed my Ninth Soul Skill. It is truly too strange." Ju Douluo was also very puzzled in his heart; how had this Old Poison's strength suddenly increased so much?

Did he take drugs, or did he hack?

"Heh heh, Ju Hua Guan, you fear his poison, but I do not. Let me be the one to deal with him. After killing him, we can go back to drink and eat meat." After Ghost finished speaking, his figure flashed and he charged toward Dugu Bo.

His speed was far greater than Yue Guan's. Unlike the Qiangong Xi Yue Guan, he was of the Agility Attack System. For a time, Dugu Bo was actually forced into a position where he could hardly parry.

His attacks were simply too bizarre; Dugu Bo didn't even know where to unleash his poison.

"Damn it, this Ghost is indeed formidable. If we keep fighting like this, I fear I am no match for him."

"Old Poison, your poison is fine for dealing with me, but wanting to deal with Ghost is too naive." Seeing his close friend gaining the upper hand, Yue Guan sat down to recover his soul power and drive out the poison while mocking him.

Although Dugu Bo was angry, he knew that what Yue Guan said was correct. The speed of the Title Douluo Ghost was simply too fast; he could not release his potent poison at a fixed point at all. If he wanted to hit his opponent, it could only be a wide-area poison.

But wide-area poison is not concentrated enough in toxicity, and I fear it would be difficult to cause any real damage to a Title Douluo.

Dugu Bo knew that Nan Feihuang was right; if Ghost came, he would still be in some danger.

Fortunately, he had already severely injured Ju Douluo just now, and at this moment, he could no longer join the battle circle. Otherwise, if the two of them besieged him, his chances of even escaping would be very slim.

In fact, he had a secret that he hadn't even told Nan Feihuang: after consuming the Wangchuan Qiushui Dew, he had developed a variation of his Medusa Gaze based on the characteristics of this Immortal Grade Herb.

If he could defeat Ghost in battle today, he would become famous throughout the world.

He wanted people to know that he, Dugu Bo, was no longer the weakest Title Douluo; he wanted to tear off this shameful label.

And there were two types; with those two moves, Dugu Bo still had a little confidence in himself.

These people were partly invited by Dugu Bo, and partly strong individuals who had come for his reputation; there was even no lack of Spirit Douluo, such as the Three Education Committee Members of the Heaven Dou Royal Academy.

Now, even if he couldn't win, he could at least get away.

However, he wanted to try today. Although his soul power consumption from the battle with Ju Douluo just now was not small, it was still far from the point of exhaustion.

It was just that they did not dare to enter the battlefield of Title Douluo without authorization, so they chose to stay a little further away, feeling the movements of the battlefield over there.

Although they couldn't see it directly, just by feeling the fluctuations of soul power in that battlefield, they knew how intense the battle between the two sides was.

Moreover, he also possessed the Taoist Heart Method, and his soul power recovery speed was extremely fast. At the very least, it was no problem for him to exert the full power of his soul skills for another half an hour at this time.

At this moment, just a few miles away from the battlefield, many well-known Spirit Masters had already gathered.

Because Dugu Bo was full of confidence in himself, he did not hide the information about his challenge to Ju Douluo at all; instead, he deliberately publicized it widely.

If Spirit Saints or Spirit Douluo went over, they would likely be caught in the aftermath and inevitably get injured.

Inside the forest, Dugu Bo once again entered his most serious combat-ready state, light flowing in his eyes. If it were before, he would indeed not have been able to keep up with Ghost's movements.

But now, as long as he could anticipate the enemy's moves, he could strike first by striking later, because at this moment, he could at least see Ghost's attacks clearly.

"First Soul Skill, Giant Change Ghost Hand!"

Ghost activated his soul skill, enlarging one of his arms from the shoulder to the palm. This soul skill greatly enhanced the strength of that arm; if the opponent was hit directly by this arm, they would experience a brief moment of dizziness.

The arm could also condense his own soul power to launch long-range attacks against enemies, with the sharp claws striking out four purple claw-blade lights, which were extremely powerful.

For a hundred-year soul skill to be so outstanding, this was all thanks to the excellence of Ghost's martial soul. It was indeed a Top-level Spirit obtained only after dying once; its quality was truly extremely high.

Just then, the enlarged palm suddenly reached out from the shadows, appearing invisibly and formlessly behind Dugu Bo, grabbing rapidly.

At the very moment it was about to strike, a huge snake tail suddenly bound the wrist.

"What?" Ghost was startled and immediately switched to the second usage of this soul skill, striking out four purple claw-blades.

Dugu Bo also turned around at this time, his body swaying slightly a few times, and he avoided all of Ghost's attacks.

"How can this be? This Old Poison can actually see Old Ghost's attacks. Since when did his eyesight and spiritual perception become so strong?" Ju Douluo observed the battlefield with a look of disbelief.

No matter how bizarre Ghost's attacks were, this guy could always predict the direction of the attacks just right and block them in advance.

The attack speed that Agility Attack System Spirit Masters were most proud of was actually being countered by Dugu Bo.

This was the wonderful use of the Wangchuan Qiushui Dew. Its improvement to soul power was so small it could be ignored, but as for the increase in eyesight and spiritual power, there was likely no equal within the entire Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well.

The current Dugu Bo, with the help of the Medusa Skull and the Wangchuan Qiushui Dew, could see Ghost's figure hidden in the dark with his eyes, and his spirit could perceive the direction of his attacks.

It could be said that the greatest advantage of Ghost's martial soul—the bizarreness of his attacks—was completely gone.

"Old Poison, I don't believe you can really see through all my attacks. Seventh Soul Skill, Ghost True Body." Ghost activated his True Body.

Once his True Body was opened, huge black clouds covered the entire sky, and the world turned pitch black. Ghost himself disappeared completely, entering a void state; at this moment, he could be immune to most physical attacks.

"Jade Phosphor Serpent Emperor True Body!" Dugu Bo also opened his True Body again, treating the Spirit Avatar as a regular skill. This was something only a Title Douluo could do; if it were an ordinary Spirit Saint, they would fall into a period of weakness after opening their True Body once.

The emerald snake pupils observed the surroundings nervously, and the snake tongue hissed in and out. This was a sign that the snake was nervous to the limit, showing how serious Dugu Bo was at this time.

"Sixth Soul Skill, Demons and Monsters!" Ghost's voice rang out from the void.

This soul skill could release multiple ghost shadow clones; the clones had physical bodies and were not illusions. The main body could detonate the clones, producing explosions to attack the opponent.

The power was about five times greater than the previous Giant Change Ghost Hand.

Facing such an attack, Dugu Bo could no longer resist with his physical body alone. His Fifth Soul Ring rose quietly, "Fifth Soul Skill, Snake Python Heavenly Steel Shield!"
