"The explosive power of this move is unbelievable!"
Dugu Bo was shocked when he sensed the intense sunlight breaking through the toxin protective barrier and truly attacking the Azure Serpent King's true form!
Although his Azure Serpent King's defense is not as strong as those of true defensive martial souls, it is not weak because of the extremely solid poison energy protecting it.
Most attacks will be consumed by the toxin first, and will not even actually touch his body.
This is one of the reasons why he poses such a great threat when facing low-level Soul Masters.
If a low-level Soul Master attacks him, not only will they be unable to harm him, but if they get close, they may even be poisoned to death by the toxin protective membrane on his body.
There are only two ways to break through this toxin protective barrier: either consume all the toxins on its body, or use a powerful attack to instantly consume all the toxins in the defense, preventing other areas from replenishing their toxins in time.
Clearly, Venusaur's close-range Solar Beam attack just now met the standard of his powerful attack.
The only thing that made Dugu Bo somewhat relieved was that Qingmu's blazing sunlight had almost exhausted its power after breaking through the protective layer of toxins, only causing his scales to darken slightly.
Otherwise, it would be too embarrassing for a Title Douluo to be injured by a Soul Master.
However, Dugu Bo's relief lasted only a moment, because he saw the petals of the distant Ivysaur once again emitting a white light and turning its center toward him.
"No way? Again!"
Seeing this, Dugu Boren was somewhat stunned. Shouldn't such an attack be a trump card? Why could Qing Mu release it so easily, as if it hadn't been used up at all?
boom--
A massive white beam of light shot out from the heart of Venusaur's flower once more, covering hundreds of meters in the blink of an eye, and arrived in front of Serperior.
Dugu Bo controlled the Azure Serpent King to quickly dodge, and when he looked back, his eyes widened in surprise.
The forest hundreds of meters behind him vanished into thin air, leaving only the black crystalline objects in its path as proof that something had just passed by.
"No wonder he was willing to start sparring only when he was so far from the mountain peak. If such a move were to hit the mountain, I'm afraid both the Ice and Fire Yin-Yang techniques would be affected."
It was only then that Dugu Bo realized that Qing Mu's attack range seemed to be too far, to a terrifying degree.
Meanwhile, Venusaur's next Solar Beam attack is nearing its end.
Seeing this, Dugu Bo immediately controlled the Azure Scale Serpent King to attack Qing Mu. Qing Mu could attack him from hundreds of meters away, but he couldn't do that; he had to get close first.
Just as Dugu Bo reached the halfway point, Venusaur finished charging up. Qing Mu calmly said, "Release!"
In an instant, a huge white beam of light swept past the top of the Azure Head once again, and the massive and scorching beam of light instantly engulfed the Azure Scale Serpent King's body.
However, this time was different from before. Dugu Bo did not choose to give up. Instead, he braved the blazing sunlight and forcefully advanced to Venusaur's position, then unleashed a powerful attack on Venusaur.
Venusaur chose to use the Petal Barrier for defense, with a large number of pink petals forming a semicircle to surround them.
However, while the Falling Petals Barrier was effective against opponents of the same level, it was clearly insufficient against a Title Douluo like Dugu Bo, and was easily breached. The giant snake tail whipped Venusaur away, and the immense force caused considerable damage to Venusaur.
However, Dugu Bo's attacks clearly did not stop, and several more attacks struck Venusaur. Despite the defense of vines and various moves, Venusaur still became covered in wounds.
A moment later, Qingmu seized the opportunity and had Venusaur use Solar Beam to hit Serperior, knocking it back over a hundred meters.
"Whoosh whoosh~"
After forcing Dugu to retreat, Venusaur began to pant heavily, the injuries it had sustained making it difficult to stand.
Seeing this, Qingmu frowned slightly. Compared to the dual attack boosted by growth, Venusaur's defense was significantly weaker.
He was injured so badly after just a few attacks from the Azure Serpent King, which weren't even considered soul skills. If he hadn't had the protection of his shield, he would have had a hard time withstanding attacks from a Soul Douluo-level opponent.
Seeing this, Dugu Bo did not continue his attack. Instead, he looked at Qing Mu with admiration and said, "What is that huge white beam of light that can be released continuously called? With just this move, you can make some attack-type Soul Douluos blush with shame in front of you."
However, you're too slow and not very durable. No wonder your fifth spirit ring needs to be a speed-type spirit skill.
In Dugu Bo's view, Qing Mu has now reached the level of a powerful offensive Soul Douluo, and can even break through his poison protection layer.
However, in terms of speed and physical defense, he is only at the level of an ordinary Soul Saint, or even a Soul Saint who does not activate his Martial Soul True Body.
Fortunately, Qing Mu seemed to realize this, and chose a soul skill with strong defensive capabilities for his fourth soul skill. If it weren't for that green shield soul skill, he would have been defeated in the first attack.
But Dugu Bo also knew that he was being somewhat nitpicky. Qing Mu was only a level 49 Soul Master, but by the standards of a Soul Master, Qing Mu's strength was all-encompassing.
We cannot assume that he did a bad job just because he is not as good as others in some aspects.
Qing Mu replied, "This move is called Solar Flare, but Senior Dugu, our battle is not over yet."
Yes, in Qingmu's opinion, mere injury is not enough to render Venusaur unable to battle, because Venusaur has a special move designed specifically for such situations.
The next instant, Venusaur's entire body emitted a faint white light, and specks of white light gathered from all around towards Venusaur, eventually merging into its body.
At the same time, Venusaur's body began to recover at a speed visible to the naked eye, and in just a few seconds, Venusaur's injuries were completely healed.
When Dugu Bo saw Venusaur instantly heal its injuries and ready to unleash its power again, he couldn't help but burst into laughter.
"Haha, this is so funny!"
From this moment on, Dugu Bo no longer regarded Qing Mu as a junior who needed guidance, but as a true rival.
...
"Thank you for your guidance, Senior Dugu."
Several hours later, Qing Mu thanked Dugu Bo.
It should be noted that Dugu Bo's eighth soul skill is similar to time stop; if the opponent were to use this move, Qing Mu would be defeated instantly.
Breaking this move requires a large amount of soul power, which Qing Mu, with his current mere Soul Master level soul power, simply cannot break.
