164: Fighting the Black Robe Man

“Do you think you’ve got me cornered?”

Shen Xi suddenly spoke.

His icy gaze was fixed on the Black-Robed Man.

“Otherwise? With just the Two People of you, do you really think you can stir up any trouble? Killing the Two People of you is as easy as pie for me!”

As he spoke, the Black-Robed Man even made a throat-slitting gesture, full of menace.

But what surprised him was that he had already shown absolute confidence and released a powerful aura, yet the Two People in front of him showed no trace of fear.

Both Shen Xi and Situ Ye looked at him with expressions as if he were an idiot.

This made an unknown fire rise in the Black-Robed Man’s heart.

These Two People were really not taking him seriously; what did this mean, were they looking down on him?

Thinking of this, the Black-Robed Man was no longer in a hurry to make a move.

In his opinion, Shen Xi and the Two People were already his prey, and he could take their lives at any time.

But if he didn’t make the Two People feel terrified and uneasy, he would feel like he was losing Face, and this hunt would lose its fun.

“Hmph! Frogs in a well naturally don’t know how vast a high and mighty Dragon is. It’s normal that you don’t understand the true extent of the power gap between me and you. In that case, I’ll show you the gap between us.”

As he spoke, the phantom of a venomous snake appeared behind the Black-Robed Man.

This was a unique manifestation of the Myriad Snake Poison Art he Cultivated.

The moment the venomous snake phantom appeared, the surrounding air became significantly colder.

Not only that, a dark green poisonous mist emerged from within the venomous snake phantom.

“Oh no, it’s poison!”

Situ Ye’s expression changed drastically, and he couldn’t help but exclaim.

He had only smelled the dark green poisonous mist for a moment and already felt dizzy and lightheaded, his limbs becoming weak.

This made him feel uneasy.

In this world, the two most troublesome types of Martial Artist are those who Cultivate illusion techniques and those who Cultivate poison arts.

One makes people immersed between reality and illusion, unable to distinguish truth from falsehood.

The other can defeat the strong with the weak, relying on potent poisons to overcome even more powerful opponents.

And the Black-Robed Man was a poison Cultivator.

This also made Situ Ye, who had always maintained his confidence, feel uneasy for the first time.

Shen Xi was indeed powerful enough, but the Black-Robed Man was not to be underestimated. What if the opponent possessed toxins capable of killing a Xiantian Realm expert? Could Shen Xi truly withstand it?

It wasn’t that Situ Ye didn’t trust Shen Xi, but rather that the methods of poison Cultivators were simply too insidious and ruthless, making them impossible to guard against.

But in the next second, Situ Ye’s unease vanished.

His gaze fell on Shen Xi, only to see that the other person was standing boldly in the poisonous mist as if nothing had happened.

The dark green poisonous mist had no effect on him whatsoever.

Not only that, Shen Xi even had spare energy to channel the Origin Qi within his body towards Situ Ye, forming a defensive barrier to block the invasion of toxins.

“Is Master immune to all poisons?”

Situ Ye was incredibly shocked.

He could clearly feel that the Black-Robed Man’s poison was so strong that even an Initial Stage of Innate Realm expert would be affected to some extent, yet for Shen Xi, it seemed to not exist at all.

In fact, this was the benefit of a powerful physique.

Because Shen Xi Cultivated the Eternal Undying Body, his physical strength naturally far surpassed experts of the same Realm.

Many toxins were rendered ineffective in the Face of his formidable physique.

Not only that, Shen Xi also discovered an unexpected surprise.

That was Spirit!

He had Cultivated the Spirit Guiding Scripture and absorbed a large amount of Spirit into his body.

And Spirit is the purest, most pristine energy in this world.

Having Spirit in his body naturally allowed him to block a large amount of poison in the world, and the more Spirit there was, the more astonishing the effect. With Shen Xi currently having Cultivated the Spirit Guiding Scripture to the Peak of the fourth stage, he might not be immune to all poisons, but at the very least, poisons below the Martial Dao Five Realms would not affect him in the slightest.

This was also one of the reasons why Shen Xi could ignore the Black-Robed Man’s methods.

“What! You Two People are completely unharmed!”

The Black-Robed Man finally realized that Shen Xi and the Two People were not affected by the dark green poison, and his pupils constricted.

How could this be!

The dark green poison was one of the three most powerful potent poisons he had mastered since becoming a poison Cultivator.

Even an Initial Stage of Innate Realm expert would be affected to some extent.

Coupled with the Black-Robed Man’s terrifying combat power, he even had the confidence to fight an Initial Stage of Innate Realm expert whose combat power had severely declined due to the potent poison.

But now, his proud potent poison had become a mere decoration?

“If you only have this much, it’s not enough to be impressive.”

Shen Xi wiggled his finger and disdainfully curled his lips.

Seeing this, the Black-Robed Man roared unwillingly, “How dare you look down on me? I’ll show you what cruelty is!”

As he spoke, the venomous snake phantom behind him instantly split into two.

The mouths of the two venomous snake phantoms opened wide, spewing out dark green poisonous mist and crimson poisonous mist respectively.

The two poisonous mists merged in the air, finally forming a red-and-green, colorful venomous snake shadow.

“This is the most terrifying poison I have mastered in my Cultivation so far. Not even an Initial Stage of Innate Realm expert could withstand it. I’d like to see how you continue to be arrogant!”

The colorful venomous snake shadow attacked Shen Xi, emitting a foul smell that was even more poisonous than the previous dark green poisonous mist.

But this time, both Shen Xi and Situ Ye looked at the Black-Robed Man with sympathetic gazes.

Although Situ Ye was also shocked by the venom of the colorful venomous snake shadow, he now had a certain understanding of Shen Xi. If he wasn’t absolutely confident, Shen Xi wouldn’t appear so calm and composed.

The Black-Robed Man was definitely no match for Shen Xi!

“It looks quite poisonous.”

Shen Xi finally spoke.

As he spoke, he rolled up his sleeves.

This made the Black-Robed Man confused. What was the other party trying to do?

Could it be that he wanted to punch and explode the colorful venomous snake shadow?

But this was just a shadow!

The essence of the colorful venomous snake shadow was the potent poison he controlled.

Even if Shen Xi really exploded the colorful venomous snake shadow, he would have already come into contact with the potent poison and been poisoned the moment he touched it.

The only way to avoid being poisoned was to dodge the colorful venomous snake shadow and not make any contact.

Thinking of this, the Black-Robed Man couldn’t help but burst into laughter: “Idiot, stupid to death. No matter how you struggle, the final outcome will not change in the slightest.”

The Black-Robed Man was somewhat looking forward to Shen Xi exploding the colorful venomous snake shadow; the harder he hit, the deeper he would be poisoned.

But in the next second, Shen Xi’s actions far exceeded his expectations, shocking him so much that he almost couldn’t close his mouth!
