28: Chapter 28 Five Poisons Spiritual Essence Technique, Forced Marriage Turmoil

Qi Yang's cloudy, aged eyes suddenly brightened, and he immediately began to read carefully.

The more he read, the faster and heavier his breathing became!

This turned out to be a poison Dao Cultivation Technique passed down from ancient times!

However, the conditions for cultivating this Cultivation Technique were simply hair-raisingly harsh!

First, the Cultivator must have Five-Element Mixed Spiritual Roots containing all Five Elements!

Because this Cultivation Technique required drawing virulent poisons into the body, if a Genius with Dual Spiritual Roots or Three Spiritual Roots tried to practice it, without the cycle of mutual generation and restriction of the Five Elements in their body to filter out the toxicity, their internal organs would be burned to ashes on the spot, turning them into a pool of blood!

Second, cultivating this Cultivation Technique required swallowing massive amounts of supreme-grade, virulent Spiritual Plants every day!

He would use poison for Body Tempering, transforming his spiritual power into an overbearing and matchless Poison Wood Spiritual Power!

"No wonder it was thrown in the corner collecting dust!"

Wild joy surged in Qi Yang's heart.

To others, this Cultivation Technique was simply a death warrant.

Trash with Mixed Spiritual Roots were so poor they couldn't even afford food; where would they get Spirit Stones to buy massive amounts of supreme-grade, virulent Spiritual Plants?

And for geniuses who could afford toxic plants, practicing it was courting death!

But for Qi Yang, this was simply tailored just for him!

"Five-Element Mixed Spiritual Roots? I am! Massive amounts of supreme-grade, virulent Spiritual Plants? I have the black gourd, I can have as many as I want!"

Qi Yang clutched this Incomplete Manual tightly, feeling a bit excited in his heart.

Holding the Five Poisons Nourishing Spirit Art, he walked over to the registration desk. Sun Cheng glanced at the cover and looked at Qi Yang as if looking at a dead man.

"Old thing, tired of living? Cultivating this poison technique means certain death, what are you taking it for?"

"This old man doesn't have much Lifespan left, I just want to find some stimulating alternative remedies and try them out, just in case it can prolong my life?"

Qi Yang coughed twice, feigning ignorance and playing the fool.

"If you want to die, go die somewhere else; don't die in the Scripture Pavilion!"

Sun Cheng registered it with a disgusted expression and shooed Qi Yang out like a fly.

Qi Yang tucked the Incomplete Manual into his bosom and left the Scripture Pavilion without looking back.

Returning to the Special Grade Herb Garden, Qi Yang immediately double-locked the wooden door and plunged headfirst into the secret chamber ten zhang deep underground.

On the bronze stone platform, Qi Yang spread out the Incomplete Manual of the Five Poisons Nourishing Spirit Art and firmly engraved the cultivation route into his mind word by word.

After confirming there were no omissions, he patted his Storage Pouch and took out more than a dozen specially made jade boxes.

Opening the jade boxes, they were filled entirely with hundred-year-old, supreme-grade, virulent Spiritual Plants ripened by the black gourd!

heartbreak grass, blood-dissolving vine, fatal spider silk, black jade scorpion tail flower... Any single one of them, if taken outside, could poison a large swath of Qi Condensation Middle Stage Cultivators to death.

"If you don't enter the tiger's den, how can you catch its cubs? I'll fight it out!"

Qi Yang's gaze turned fierce as he directly grabbed a stalk of hundred-year-old heartbreak grass and a hundred-year-old blood-dissolving vine, shoving them into his mouth without the slightest hesitation, chewing heavily, and swallowing them.

Boom!

The violent toxicity directly exploded in Qi Yang's stomach!

That sensation was just like someone pouring a pot of boiling molten iron directly into his belly!

"Ugh ah!!!"

Veins bulged all over Qi Yang's body, and cold sweat soaked his back in an instant.

He gritted his teeth tightly, not allowing himself to let out too loud of a scream.

The toxicity began wildly destroying his Meridians and internal organs!

"Rotate for this old man!"

Qi Yang roared in his heart, frantically circulating the cultivation route of the Five Poisons Nourishing Spirit Art.

The advantage of the Five-Element Mixed Spiritual Roots was completely displayed at this moment!

The Five Elements spiritual power of Metal, Wood, Water, Fire, and Earth formed a perfect filtering Five Elements Grindstone inside his Dantian.

After the fatal toxicity was frantically crushed by the Five Elements Grindstone, wisps of overbearing, dark green Poison Wood Spiritual Power were forcefully stripped away!

As soon as this Poison Wood Spiritual Power appeared, it immediately began to repair the damaged Meridians, making them even tougher and wider!

"It's effective!"

A trace of fanaticism flashed in Qi Yang's eyes as he grabbed two more virulent Spiritual Plants and stuffed them into his mouth.

One day... Two days... Three days...

For a full half-month, Qi Yang acted like a madman, swallowing virulent Spiritual Plants in the secret chamber without sleep or rest.

The green liquid condensed by the black gourd was frantically consumed by him, ripening batch after batch of toxic plants.

The pain akin to scraping bone to cure poison had already numbed him.

Late at night on the fifteenth day.

Rumble!

A muffled explosion came from within Qi Yang's body, and a formidable and matchless dark green spiritual power completely formed within his Qi Sea!

The Qi Condensation Seventh Layer Realm hadn't changed, but the quality of his spiritual power was more than ten times stronger than before!

"Such overbearing Poison Wood Spiritual Power!"

Qi Yang opened his eyes and flicked his finger, shooting out a wisp of dark green spiritual power that struck the bluestone wall of the secret chamber.

Sizzle sizzle sizzle!

The hard bluestone wall was actually corroded into a deep, small hole, with pungent black smoke rising from the edges!

If this hit a Cultivator's Physical Body, it could rapidly melt through the protective spiritual light of a Qi Condensation 8th Layer Cultivator!

"My combat capability has definitely undergone a qualitative change! Even without a Formation now, I can scheme against and kill a Qi Condensation 8th Layer Cultivator!"

Qi Yang smiled with satisfaction.

But he didn't get carried away; if he displayed this overbearing Poison Wood Spiritual Power outside, it would definitely arouse the suspicion of the Sect's higher-ups.

How could Trash at the Qi Condensation Third Layer possess such terrifying spiritual power?

"Abandoning my cultivation is impossible, it's impossible in this lifetime."

Qi Yang touched his chin, his gaze flickering.

He did not abandon the Trash Guidance Spiritual Technique he had originally cultivated, but instead utilized the powerful inclusiveness of the Five-Element Mixed Spiritual Roots to pull off a switcheroo!

Qi Yang closed his eyes, controlling the massive Poison Wood Spiritual Power in his Qi Sea, compressing it, and making it lie dormant tightly within the deepest part of his Dantian.

Afterward, he mobilized the tiny bit of upright and peaceful Guidance Spiritual Technique spiritual power remaining in his body, transforming it into a thick outer shell to completely wrap around the Poison Wood Spiritual Power.

Finally, he swallowed a wuxiang pill.

Perfect disguise!

Qi Yang looked inside his own body; right now, on the surface, he looked like an old piece of Trash at the Qi Condensation Third Layer whose vital blood had withered and whose spiritual power was utterly impure and chaotic.

"Now it's secure."

Qi Yang sneered.

"Even if a Foundation Establishment Stage Elder scans with divine sense, they will only see an outer shell of a Trash at the Qi Condensation Third Layer. If anyone really treats me like Trash, I'll let them taste the feeling of their internal organs being burned to ashes!"

The dual spiritual power disguise made Qi Yang's sense of security burst forth once again.

He stood up, patted the dust off his body, and prepared to return to the surface to get some fresh air.

Calculating the time, that girl Su Qinghan should be going to the market today to buy Medicinal Pills for her injuries.

Over the past half a year or so, the two had not interfered with each other and lived in peace, which could be considered a qualified shield.

However, just as Qi Yang pushed open the withered wooden door and walked into the courtyard, he heard a rush of hurried and staggering footsteps coming from afar.

Bang!

The Formation light barrier of the Special Grade Herb Garden fluctuated violently, and Su Qinghan tumbled into the courtyard covered in blood.

Her exceptionally beautiful face was devoid of all color, her white clothes stained red with blood, and on her right shoulder was a sword wound deep enough to reveal the bone; even the hand holding her sword was trembling.

"What is going on?"

Qi Yang frowned, immediately hunching his waist as he went up to meet her, putting on an appearance of panic and confusion.

Su Qinghan bit her lips tightly, spitting out a mouthful of bloody saliva, her eyes filled with humiliation and despair.

"Inner Sect... Jianzhi Peak, Zhou Yunfei!"

"Zhou Yunfei?"

Qi Yang's cloudy, aged eyes narrowed slightly.

Although he was hiding in the Outer Sect, he had still heard of the names of those prominent figures in the Inner Sect.

Zhou Yunfei, the supreme Genius of Jianzhi Peak in the Inner Sect!

A rare possessor of Dual Spiritual Roots!

At only twenty-five years old, he had already reached the Qi Refining Tenth Layer Realm. He was one of the Prodigies in the Inner Sect with the highest hopes of breaking through to Foundation Establishment before the age of thirty!

The Xuantian Sect was merely a second-rate Sect in the Northern Spirit Domain. Across the entire Sect, geniuses with Dual Spiritual Roots numbered less than five, and every single one of them was a darling cradled in the palms of the Sect's higher-ups.

Someone with a Three-element Profound Spiritual Root like Su Qinghan was considered a Genius in the Luoxia Sect, but in front of an Earthly Spiritual Root Prodigy like Zhou Yunfei, she simply didn't measure up!
