Chapter 217: Found You, Members from the Hall of Souls

From Lin Xiu's calm face, Xiao Xun'er did not see any disdain; instead, she saw a hint of curiosity.

Is this guy crazy? Knowing that I have the Woeful Poison Body, he still dares to approach me.

Xiao Xun'er was somewhat stunned.

"Quick! Quick! What a great opportunity!"

"Knowing it's the Woeful Poison Body, he still dares to make contact. He must have a death wish."

Seeing Lin Xiu's actions clearly, Luo Yan Tian and the Mulan Three Elders were thrilled and mobilized their Dou Qi, rushing over at the fastest speed.

Seeing this, they were afraid that if they were even a bit slower, Lin Xiu would have time to suppress the poison.

"Let go!"

Coming back to her senses, Xiao Xun'er swung her other hand and successfully pulled her wrist free.

She looked at the retreating Lin Xiu and rubbed her slightly painful wrist.

A black mist was visibly spreading across Lin Xiu's face.

Under his skin, the color of his blood vessels turned dark, like ink, forming terrifying patterns.

At the same time, Lin Xiu coughed.

"Haha, kid, you've got yours today!"

Behind Luo Yan Tian, golden feathers rustled and stood upright, then shot toward Lin Xiu like rays of golden light.

The Mulan Three Elders also seized the opportunity and quickly attacked Lin Xiu.

Bang bang!

Lin Xiu raised his hand and struck out two punches. Dou Qi surged out, easily shattering their attacks.

Although he had just advanced to Dou Ancestor, he still had a total of eight Yuan apertures within him, each containing the peak power of eight Dou Emperors.

Moreover, Lin Xiu's physique is at the peak of the Seventh Rank Magic Beast.

Even without the additional strength, he could easily crush their attacks.

But others were unaware of these facts.

Luo Yan Tian and the Mulan Three Elders were stunned to see Lin Xiu easily repel their attacks.

"How is this possible? You clearly came into contact with the poison Sect Master, so why are you unaffected?"

An incredulous expression appeared on Luo Yan Tian's face, his voice somewhat sharp.

Nearby, the Mulan Three Elders had a similar reaction.

No one could answer how terrifying the poison of the Sect Master was.

But according to what they knew, at least getting infected with the poison of the Sect Master should have some effect, and it shouldn't be without any impact.

"Heavenly Flame! It's the Heavenly Flame. He controls the Heavenly Flame, which must offer some protection against the poison invasion."

Frowning, Fa Ma suddenly thought of something and excitedly spoke to Jia Xing Tian and Hai Bo Dong.

Hearing this, Hai Bo Dong immediately understood.

When Nalan Jie had toxins in his body, he was troubled for several years. It was only with Xiao Yan's Heavenly Flame assistance that the toxins were finally removed.

Under their watchful eyes, a flame ignited from within Lin Xiu, and black smoke began to rise from his head.

Then, a scattering of black particles fell to the ground, emitting a hissing sound and corroding a large pit.

"The poison of the Woeful Poison Body is indeed extraordinary. If it weren't for the protection of the Heavenly Flame, I would have needed some time to deal with it."

Lin Xiu's expression showed a hint of reminiscence.

When he came into contact with Xiao Xun'er, he had already detected the poison entering his body.

He originally planned to draw the poison into his Yuan aperture, but the poison was too domineering; just drawing in a trace nearly corroded the Yuan aperture.

So, Lin Xiu had no choice but to expel most of it first.

However, he found that the poison Yuan aperture could only adapt to initial contact; as long as he tried a few more times and gradually replaced the poison inside, he would be able to absorb it on a large scale in the future.

Of course, the premise for this is that a Woeful Poison Body must always be nearby to provide the poison.

After all, it is a lengthy process.

"If this is all you're capable of, then if you can't give me a satisfactory answer today, be prepared to be buried in Misty Cloud Mountain."

Lin Xiu took a step forward, and his aura surged into the sky.

Except for Xiao Xun'er, whose expression was somewhat normal, Luo Yan Tian and the Mulan Three Elders' expressions suddenly changed dramatically.

"Dou Ancestor!!"

"You, how did you advance to Dou Ancestor? It's impossible! It's only been half a year, how could you?!"

"Not good, retreat! Quickly retreat!"

The four were panic-stricken and somewhat incoherent.

It should be noted that when Lin Xiu came before, he was only at the Dou Emperor level. Now that he has advanced to Dou Ancestor, his strength must have increased significantly.

In contrast, their strength had not changed much; they only had the advantage in numbers.

Yet, the poison of the Sect Master had little effect on him.

Hai Bo Dong was caught off guard by the reactions of Luo Yan Tian and the Mulan Three Elders.

Is it really necessary to show such fear just because Lin Xiu advanced to Dou Ancestor? He's only one person.

He had just been thinking that if Lin Xiu was defeated, at least Xiao Yan would come to the rescue.

Given the current situation, by the time Xiao Yan arrives, it might already be too late.

"Have you forgotten that speed has always been my advantage? Running? You might as well dream."

Before Lin Xiu's words fell, lightning flashed beneath his feet, and his figure turned into a blur, shooting toward them.

Suddenly, multiple figures of Lin Xiu appeared in the air, each one vivid and indistinguishable from the real one.

The Mulan Three Elders stood back to back in a triangular formation, their eyes scanning the surroundings with tension, ready for battle.

Boom!

Suddenly, a loud crash echoed from above. The three immediately activated their Dou Qi Defensive, but it couldn't hold for two seconds before they crashed down to the ground.

Lin Xiu did not stop for a moment; he smashed each of the figures to the ground.

Luo Yan Tian flapped his golden wings, just as he launched himself into the air, only to collide head-on with Lin Xiu, who had appeared in front of him. After taking a punch, he fell to the ground.

In just a few breaths, the sky was left with only a blue eagle flapping its wings and the poison Sect Master standing in the air.

The only exposed gray-purple eyes widened, gazing at the scene with disbelief.

At this moment, Xiao Xun'er finally had a clear understanding of how terrifying Lin Xiu was, as they had repeatedly emphasized during their journey.

"Will you go down yourself?"

Lin Xiu looked at her.

With a slight hesitation, Xiao Xun'er seemed to be making some decision. She bit down hard on her finger, causing bright red blood to flow.

She placed the finger on her smooth forehead, slowly lifting her head to gaze at Lin Xiu. "This is the first time I'm unlocking the Woeful Poison Body, and you're the first person who has made me do it. Dying here, at least your life has some meaning."

A strange rune appeared, floating above her forehead.

Her gray-purple eyes suddenly emitted a strange light, and her pupils began to slowly rotate.

At that moment, her eyes suddenly rolled back.

Lin Xiu had somehow appeared behind her, one hand gripping her slender neck.

"To think you even gave me the first time, it's indeed worth noting. However…"

Holding the unconscious woman in one arm, Lin Xiu turned his gaze from her closed eyes to the empty void, "Will you keep hiding? I've already found you, members from the Hall of Souls."

When Xiao Xun'er proposed to unlock the Woeful Poison Body seal, a faint ripple appeared around them.

This ripple was very subtle, easily missed if not carefully sensed.

However, Lin Xiu's Soul Power had already reached the mid-stage of the Spirit Realm, making him extremely sensitive to everything around him.

The moment the ripple appeared, he detected it.

Among the sensations, there was a familiar aura he had encountered before in the Black-Corner Region. Since Protector Wu was dead, the one who arrived must be Protector Xuan.

The void twisted, and a large amount of black mist spilled out, quickly forming three clusters.
