The Poison Master of the Poison Sect of the Chuyun Empire

"Stupid snake, do you know what an Ice Heart Pill is? *Eight Extremities Collapse!*"

Even with his face covered in dirt, the triumphant smile on Xiao Yan's face couldn't be hidden.

This punch concentrated all his strength. In an instant, Xiao Yan closed the distance. No matter how tough the Black Steel Giant Serpent's scales were, they couldn't protect its scale-less abdomen, nor could it evade Xiao Yan's carefully planned strike in an instant.

With a long roar, Xiao Yan's arm unleashed a fatal punch, the Eight Extremities Collapse fist force meeting it with dauntless momentum.

With a loud bang, the punch landed squarely, and finally, the massive Black Steel Giant Serpent was sent flying into the sky by Xiao Yan's punch. The eight layers of hidden force struck a total of eight times! Only then did it fall from the sky.

With a thud, the Black Steel Giant Serpent crashed heavily to the ground, blood gushing from its eyes and mouth. All the bones in its body had been shattered by Xiao Yan's Eight Extremities Collapse, and its internal organs had been turned into mincemeat by the hidden force.

After twitching a few times, it died unwillingly.

Xiao Yan plopped down on the Black Steel Giant Serpent's body, took out a rag from his Storage Ring to wipe the dirt off himself, and changed into a fresh set of clothes.

"Tier 2 Magical Beasts are indeed difficult to deal with. I even had to use an Ice Heart Pill."

It's not like it was forbidden to use pills, right!

The Ice Heart Pill is a Tier 2 Pill, and its effect is quite peculiar. Upon entering the body, the Ice Heart Pill immediately generates a cold current, making one feel ice-cold to the bone. It not only allows the mind to experience this cold sensation, thereby calming oneself down, but more importantly, the cold current generated by the Ice Heart Pill can rapidly cool down the body's flesh, blood, and meridians.

This was Xiao Yan's backup pill for absorbing a Strange Flame.

To absorb a Strange Flame, one can't just open their mouth and swallow it, or else they'd be burned to death before even absorbing the flame.

Xiao Yan discovered from the notes of the Storage Ring's previous owner on absorbing the Bone Spirit Cold Flame that three items needed to be prepared in advance to increase the success rate of absorption.

The first is the Tier 5 Blood Lotus Pill, which can generate a continuous stream of blood scabs to protect the body, allowing Xiao Yan to approach the Strange Flame. The second is Na Ling, which Xiao Yan was fortunate enough to find a piece of in that mysterious Storage Ring. The third is the Ice Spirit Cold Spring.

If the Blood Lotus Pill protects the external body, then the Ice Spirit Cold Spring protects the internal body. It can protect you from being burned into nothingness by the latter's destructive temperature when refining a Strange Flame.

But Xiao Yan was unlucky. At least there was a pill formula for the Blood Lotus Pill, and he could ask someone to refine it if necessary. He had never even heard of the Ice Spirit Cold Spring, so he refined a lower-level substitute, the Ice Heart Pill, himself.

If he really couldn't find the Ice Spirit Cold Spring and encountered a Strange Flame, he would use a large number of Ice Heart Pills as a substitute.

He didn't expect the Ice Heart Pill to have such a miraculous effect today, lowering his body temperature and preventing the Black Steel Giant Serpent's heat perception from detecting Xiao Yan hiding underground, allowing him to successfully launch a sneak attack.

Xiao Yan didn't immediately move on to the next challenge. Instead, he sat down and began to skin and debone the Black Steel Giant Serpent.

"Yes! There really is a Magic Core, a Tier 2 Magical Beast's Magic Core. This time, I've made a profit."

Xiao Yan wiped the Magic Core and tossed it into his Storage Ring. The materials for his practice pills were obtained in this way. This wasn't Wutan City, and he couldn't afford to waste a single penny.

After swallowing a Tier 2 Qi Recovery Pill and applying some wound medicine, he slowly circulated the Burning Technique. Xiao Yan had used the Eight Extremities Collapse twice, and even though it didn't consume much Dou Qi, his body was extremely fatigued.

Xiao Yan wasn't in a hurry. Haste makes waste. He chose to recover his condition first. Fortunately, as a Tier 2 Alchemist himself, he had a lot of pills in his Storage Ring.

"Hah, as expected, fighting is the fastest way to improve cultivation. My Dou Qi has increased a bit."

People naturally devour food when they are most hungry, and cultivation is the same.

Xiao Yan stood up, stretched, and used the Black Steel Giant Serpent's meat to make soup on the spot. Only after eating and drinking his fill did he head towards the passage entrance.

Although this passage was always open here, Xiao Yan knew with his powerful Soul that it was constantly changing its destination.

"I wonder what my next opponent will be."

Xiao Yan himself didn't realize that he had a hint of anticipation on his lips! From being very cautious when he first entered, he had become a little expectant. He was looking forward to fighting opponents of comparable strength! As Xiao Yan entered the passage entrance, a sense of danger suddenly arose. With a whoosh, just as Xiao Yan had entered, a cloud of poison powder suddenly shot out.

Xiao Yan often entered and exited the Magical Beast Mountain Range in Wutan City and had even experienced life and death situations. He was already accustomed to such sudden situations and was fearless.

He circulated the Dou Qi throughout his body and rolled to the side to dodge this sneak attack.

"Oh? You actually dodged my poison arrow?" A puzzled voice came. Xiao Yan looked up and saw a pale-faced man looking at him with a hint of surprise.

Clearly, he hadn't expected Xiao Yan to dodge his sneak attack.

"You're a Poison Master!? From the Chuyun Empire?"

Generally speaking, although Apothecaries can also refine poison, like Hun Xuzi back then, it was because Hun Xuzi's grade was extremely high. Normal low-level Apothecaries would not refine poison pills, and they didn't even have poison formulas.

The only ones who frequently use poison are Poison Masters.

The reputation of Poison Masters on the Dou Qi Continent isn't very good. Many people are somewhat afraid of dealing with Poison Masters because their undetectable poisoning methods can make any opponent, or even a friend, feel uneasy.

And the Chuyun Empire, adjacent to the Gama Empire, is a country dominated by Poison Masters. It could even be said that the Chuyun Empire is a gathering place for Poison Masters.

Each time the two countries went to war, many soldiers of the Gama Empire died from the poison of the Poison Masters.

"You have quite the eye. My name is Zhang Chuanwu, from the Poison Sect. Knowing my name, you can die peacefully." Zhang Chuanwu was full of confidence, and smiled coldly.

Hearing Zhang Chuanwu's self-introduction, Xiao Yan remained calm. He looked at Zhang Chuanwu and said slowly, "Xiao Yan, from Wutan City in the Gama Empire, is a Tier 2 Alchemist."

!!!! Hearing the words 'Alchemist', Zhang Chuanwu's eyes looked like they wanted to eat someone, filled with resentment.

Xiao Yan naturally said this on purpose. Ninety percent of Poison Masters become Poison Masters because they cannot become Alchemists.

Alchemist is a profession that everyone on the Dou Qi Continent wants to be, but its special threshold makes most people flinch. Those who cannot become Alchemists but have the talent for refining medicine generally choose to become Apothecaries, healing the wounded and rescuing the dying.

And some people who become jealous and hateful choose to become Poison Masters, concocting the opposite of medicine, poison.

Xiao Yan is an Alchemist, and for Zhang Chuanwu, who once wanted to become an Alchemist but failed, it was like someone had stolen his beloved woman and was kissing and hugging in front of him.

"Hehehe. Good, very good, I will let you taste what it's like to have your limbs lose consciousness, while your head is still clear, and have someone cut off your flesh piece by piece!"

Xiao Yan spread his hands with a helpless expression, and said indifferently, "Isn't that just anesthesia? But it seems you don't have an anesthesiologist's license."

Thanks to [Ling Mo Lin Mo] [Fen Luo Xi Chen] [Chi Bu Bao De Mu Mu Sang] [Huai Nian A Ren Sheng] 2 [Tan Peng Gu] 2 [Peng Cheng Wan Li K] *2 [Mu Jiu Ke] [Zhuo Ye Liu Hua] for the monthly tickets, thank you all for your support on the first day of the month!
