227: All-powerful Poisonous Miasma

Everything in the academy requires Contribution Points, and using the Douling Platform is no exception.

Feng Yichen paid the full fee readily—since you did not have any Contribution Points, he paid your share as well.

After the two of you stepped onto the Douling Platform, the duty Elder immediately activated the Protective Grand Array.

With a “buzz,” an invisible Spatial Barrier enveloped the entire Douling Platform.

As soon as the Grand Array formed, Feng Yichen shouted sternly, “Die!”

Before his voice faded, a golden light suddenly flew out from his sleeve—it was precisely his Lifebound Treasure, the Void Splitting Shuttle.

The Void Splitting Shuttle carried a piercing shriek that tore through space, instantly piercing the spot where you had just stood and shattering the afterimage.

You had already used the Soaring Dragon Steps to maneuver to his side.

In an instant, the dynamic of offense and defense was reversed!

Feng Yichen snorted coldly, his hand seals rapidly changing. The Void Splitting Shuttle transformed into nine illusory figures in mid-air. He roared, “Nine Palaces Immortal Lock!”

The nine illusory figures formed a grand array, instantly sealing off all your paths of retreat.

You frowned inwardly, realizing this guy was aiming for a killing blow right from the start. Ordinary Nascent Soul Cultivators would likely find it difficult to evade this move.

But the current you was no longer the same as before.

You immediately mobilized the power imbued with Dao Patterns and poured it into your light evasion boots. In a flash, your figure moved like a willow catkin passing through a needle, leaving behind more than ten shattered afterimages in the gaps of the Golden Light Chains.

Seeing your nimble movement technique and ease, he frowned tightly and snorted coldly, “Hmph! Can you only hide?”

As he spoke, he flipped his palm and pressed down, saying faintly, “Profound Nether Cold Qi!”

Immediately, bone-chilling cold Qi surged from his palm. Wherever it passed, frost instantly covered half the arena.

Seeing the spreading frost, you sneered inwardly—this was practically throwing himself into the trap!

You pressed your fingers together like a sword and pointed, “Spirit Corroding Poison Fire!”

In an instant, purple-red poisonous flames burst from your fingertip, colliding with the deep blue cold tide in the air, creating billowing toxic mist.

To everyone’s shock, your poison was actually able to corrode the opponent’s Spell—Feng Yichen’s deep blue frost was rapidly eaten away, instead becoming nourishment for your poison.

Feng Yichen was greatly alarmed and immediately used a movement technique to distance himself from you.

As an academy student, he knew the prowess of the Poison Dao Academy well. If one was contaminated by this poison, they would be severely injured, if not killed.

Upon seeing this, the students watching the battle began discussing among themselves.

“I didn’t expect Qin Chen’s Poison Dao to be able to corrode the opponent’s Spells already!”

“Could it be that he has been cultivating the Poison Dao in seclusion all these years?”

“Those guys from the Poison Dao Academy are truly troublesome.”

In the subsequent exchanges, Feng Yichen’s offensive clearly slowed down.

In just a few breaths, you had already exchanged over a hundred moves.

You judged your own strength and decided to end the fight, so you deliberately exposed a flaw.

He seized the opportunity and laughed loudly, “Qin Chen, die!”

Before his voice fell, he immediately raised his hand and summoned the Magic Treasure, Dragon Binding Golden Rope. The golden rope coiled towards your feet like a spiritual snake.

You were already prepared. Your figure flickered and turned into a wisp of smoke, leaving behind only a shredded afterimage where you stood.

As the golden rope coiled back, your true body had already appeared above his head. You sneered and pointed a finger.

In an instant, purple starlight shot out like an aurora.

This move was precisely the Divine Ability Void Breaking Finger, imbued with poison.

Feng Yichen hastily recalled the Void Splitting Shuttle to protect his body and shouted, “Golden Light Wall!”

Immediately, the Golden Light Wall and the poisonous finger collided, creating dense sounds like rain hitting banana leaves.

Your offensive didn't stop. Without waiting for him to change his move, your figure flickered, executing the Body Manifests Myriad Forms. Tens of thousands of indistinguishable true and false figures instantly appeared on the entire Douling Platform.

“A trivial trick!” Feng Yichen snorted coldly. The Void Splitting Shuttle transformed into Golden Needles that rained down like a torrential storm.

Amidst this dense rain of Golden Needles, your true body suddenly appeared, deep purple light condensing in your palm—Town Origin Palm!

Majestic Nascent Soul Power mixed with Origin Deadly Poison transformed into a massive purple palm that covered half the arena and slammed down!

His expression changed drastically. He hastily recalled the Void Splitting Shuttle to protect the top of his head.

“Golden Light Body Protection!”

“Boom—!!”

The purple palm violently collided with the Void Splitting Shuttle. A blinding purple-gold light mass instantly exploded, and scorching poisonous fire ignited half the arena.

You looked calmly at him, who was engulfed in the light mass, knowing he was certain to die this time—you had great confidence in your poison.

Amidst this chaos, a golden light condensed to the extreme suddenly shot out from the flames—it was Feng Yichen’s Nascent Soul escaping from his body!

The inch-tall Nascent Soul had a ferocious expression, its entire body covered in cracks. It let out a mournful roar, “Let’s die together!”

The Nascent Soul exploded with a boom. The destructive energy turned into a mushroom cloud that soared into the sky, causing the entire Protective Grand Array to tremble violently.

When there was no way to avoid it, purple mist surged around you—Ten Thousand Spirits Poisonous Miasma!

In an instant, your entire being transformed into a vast expanse of toxic mist that permeated the entire area, completely enveloping, corroding, and dissolving the destructive energy.

Once the smoke and dust slowly dispersed, the purple mist filling the air re-condensed, revealing your completely unharmed figure.

You looked down at the scorch mark burned into your sleeve and casually brushed it off.

This was the first time you had experienced the Ten Thousand Spirits Poisonous Miasma in actual combat, and the effect surprised even you—the moment you transformed into toxic mist, amidst that terrifying energy, you felt as comfortable as if bathing in the spring breeze, like a fish in water.

This Divine Ability seemed to have already touched the edge of the Law Power.

This powerful Divine Ability made you extremely excited.

Perhaps only the true Law Power could counter a Divine Ability like yours.

Therefore, the mere power of a Nascent Soul Self-detonation could not threaten you in that state.

Through this battle, you gained new insights into your various Divine Abilities and Spells.

This result plunged the entire audience into silence.

“A Peak Nascent Soul Self-detonation... only managed to burn a corner of his clothes?”

“Ah—!” A Female Student cried out excitedly, “Senior Brother Qin is too handsome! I want to bear his children!”

The Male Student next to her sneered, “He’s going to participate in the Holy Land Grand Competition this time. We don’t even know if he’ll come back alive, so stop dreaming.”

The Female Student glared at the Male Student, “Mind your own business!”

The Male Student snorted lightly, and the look in his eyes when he gazed at you also turned sharp.

There were also many Disciples from other academies watching the fight, and they gained quite a lot from this observation.

“He defeated a Peak Cultivator while only in the Late Nascent Soul Stage. If he reaches the Peak in the future, won’t he be unrivaled within the Nascent Soul realm?”

“He only won by relying on the Poison Dao. You must know that among our Three Thousand Academies, there are many methods that can counter the Poison Dao.”

“That’s right! For example, the Pill Dao Academy, Medical Dao Academy, Karma Academy, Array Dao Academy, Void Realm Academy, Puppet Dao Academy, and Talisman Dao Academy all have methods specifically designed to counter the Poison Dao.”

“It’s a pity. Feng Yichen suffered a loss precisely because he had absolutely no means to deal with Qin Chen’s Poison Dao.”

“Feng Yichen probably never expected that Qin Chen, being a Disciple of Venerable Yuqing, would actually specialize in the Poison Dao.”

“Don’t you all find it strange? Senior Brother Feng is usually low-key and humble. Why was he so uncharacteristic this time?” a student from the Dual Cultivation Academy said, puzzled.
