Chapter 51: Breaking the First Clan, Yang Wudi
Davis looked at his left hand and thought excitedly:
> "Today is truly a lucky day for this prince!"
At this moment, he was ecstatic. When absorbing the spirit ring earlier, he had also unexpectedly obtained a spirit bone—a left palm bone.
Just like the right palm bone from the Dark Gold Terror Claw Bear, this was also an external spirit bone, and it too was from a 30,000-year-old soul beast. Even better, the attached soul skill was none other than the Dark Gold Terror Claw!
> "Heh… Now that I've collected both left and right palm bones of the Dark Gold Terror Claw Bear, my combat strength will definitely skyrocket!
If I use these bones to perform White Tiger Earth-Splitting Slash, the power will be even greater!
Plus, these bones are like a pair of natural weapons—whether for the Aurora Divine Wind Claw or Storm Nebula Crack, they're perfect!"
Davis laughed inwardly. He didn't mention the external spirit bone to Dugu Bo—not out of fear of being attacked for it, but simply because he didn't want to show off.
Besides, this external spirit bone was now his trump card.
> "Senior, I've obtained my fifth soul ring. Let's head back."
> "Alright. This is the Star Dou Great Forest, after all—not a place to linger."
With that, Dugu Bo lifted Davis and soared into the skies, heading for Star Luo City.

Boom! Boom! Boom!
After flying for about half an hour, the two suddenly heard intense battle sounds coming from below. They turned toward the source.
> "Seventh soul skill: Weapon Spirit True Body—Soul-Breaking Spear!"
A Level 75 Soul Saint activated his soul skill. A column of blood-red soul power shot into the sky and transformed into a giant illusory figure wielding a massive blood-colored spear!
The spear was pitch-black, gleaming with a cold light. It was eight feet long, with a four-foot-wide spearhead, and its shaft was as thick as a man's arm.
As the true body formed, black flame-like energy—like Amaterasu—surged over the entire spear!
---
Before the Soul Saint stood three massive ants. Each ant was three meters tall, with a body encased in dark golden chitin armor that looked as tough as iron.
Beneath their massive torsos were six stubby legs, though short, they moved with astonishing speed. Their six glowing green eyes burned with ghostly light, resembling eerie green flames in the darkness—frightening enough to make any young girl scream in terror.
Davis's expression changed drastically upon seeing them.
> "Those are… the Three Thousand-Titan Ant Kings!"
Indeed. These were the same Three Thousand-Titan Ant Kings that would one day become spirit rings for Tang San's Clear Sky Hammer.
Right now, their cultivation hadn't yet reached 80,000 years. But they already moved with deadly coordination, hunting together as a pack. In the Star Dou Great Forest, they were second only to the Titan Giant Ape and the Azure Bull Python. Even those two hundred-thousand-year soul beasts wouldn't dare take these three lightly.
> "Could they have been drawn here by the scent of the Fragrant Immortal Product?"
Davis thought to himself. The appearance of the Thousand-Titan Ant Kings was likely due to their attraction to the Youxiang Qiluo Immortal Product.
He turned his gaze to the Soul Saint battling them.
Despite their strength, the three ant kings hadn't gained the upper hand. Who could possibly match them?
> "A Soul-Breaking Spear martial spirit… and Level 75 strength... That must be Yang Wudi, patriarch of the Breaking Clan."
Dugu Bo murmured. Davis heard the name and looked carefully at the skinny old man in the battle.
The man had sinister eyes and a sharp, grim demeanor, making him seem hard to approach—cold and fiercely unyielding.
> "It really is Yang Wudi. I never thought I'd run into him here."
Davis was overjoyed.
There was also a young boy, around ten years old, standing beside Yang Wudi—possibly a few years older than Zhu Zhuqing. It must be his grandson.
It was likely that Yang Wudi had brought his grandson here to help him obtain a soul ring. To do so, he had used the Youxiang Qiluo Immortal Product to lure a spirit beast.
Unexpectedly, he attracted not a single beast—but the Three Thousand-Titan Ant Kings, and battle broke out immediately.
Both sides had fiery temperaments: the Thousand-Titan Ants were violent and bloodthirsty, while Yang Wudi was infamously aggressive. A conflict was inevitable.
> "The Breaking Clan specializes in medicine refining.
If I can bring them to the Star Luo Empire, it would greatly enhance our military strength!"
Davis murmured to himself.
The Breaking Clan's martial spirit—the Soul-Breaking Spear—was a pure offensive-type martial spirit. Although lacking in versatility, its destructive power was terrifying.
Even though Yang Wudi was only Level 75, some Soul Douluo—and even Titled Douluo—would hesitate to clash directly with his attack power.
> "With the immortal herbs from the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well, if I can win the Breaking Clan over, the strength of the Star Luo Empire's soul masters will rise rapidly."
With this in mind, Davis declared:
> "Senior Dugu, I want to meet the patriarch of the Breaking Clan."
> "Indeed. Their power is considerable—we should try to recruit them."
Dugu Bo instantly understood Davis's intent. Though he personally valued only their martial strength.
> "But my soul skills are quite overbearing. If I accidentally injure Yang Wudi or his grandson, it could complicate things…"
> "No problem, Senior. Just release your poison freely. I'll handle the detoxification."
Davis smiled confidently.
With that, he summoned his martial spirit, held up the Youxiang Qiluo Immortal Product, and flew straight toward Yang Wudi.
Seeing this, Dugu Bo acted at once.
> "Hmph, I don't believe the Thousand-Titan Ants are stronger than the Dark Gold Terror Claw Bear.
Martial Soul True Body, activate!"
Dugu Bo released his true body and appeared behind the three ant kings. He unleashed a massive cloud of venomous mist.
> "Sixth Soul Skill: Green Phosphorus Snake Emperor Poison!"
In an instant, the toxic fog spread over an area hundreds of meters wide.
Panicked, the three ant kings turned to charge toward Dugu Bo.
---
Down below, Yang Wudi's expression changed dramatically.
> "Zhen'er! The poison mist is coming—hurry and take a detoxification pill!"
> "Senior, no need to panic!"
Before he could finish, Davis appeared before them, holding the Youxiang Qiluo Immortal Product.
The faint fragrance emitted by the immortal herb dispelled the toxic fog around them.
> "That's… the Youxiang Qiluo Immortal Product!"
Yang Wudi's eyes widened instantly. He stared in disbelief at the herb in Davis's hand.
As a master of medicinal arts and a reader of the Compendium of Immortal Herbs, Yang Wudi naturally recognized it.
His eyes burned with envy and desire.
For years, he had feared poison while refining medicine. When he first heard rumors of the Youxiang Qiluo Immortal Product, he had searched high and low for it—but found nothing.
Now, the legendary herb was right in front of him. How could he not feel tempted?
---
Meanwhile, the Three Thousand-Titan Ant Kings were struggling.
Inside the toxic mist, they had begun absorbing the poison uncontrollably, their bodies growing weaker by the second.
> "Watch this—Medusa's Gaze!"
Dugu Bo activated his soul bone skill. From his snake pupils, two beams of white light shot out and struck one of the ant kings.
The creature stiffened, unable to dodge, and was instantly petrified.
> "My friend, I leave it to you!"
> "No problem! Fifth Soul Skill: White Tiger Earth-Splitting Slash!"
