141: Silver Dragon's Love Poison, now that things have come to this, what are you pretending to be, this innocent young man for?

The various Rulers of the Forbidden Zone were in the midst of heated discussion when they suddenly fell silent in unison.

The next instant, several low exclamations of surprise sounded almost simultaneously.

The Lord of Undying Mountain's gaze sharpened slightly. He was the first to detect the similar fluctuations in the Divine Souls of the people beside him and spoke in a deep voice:

"Hmm?"

The Lord of Undying Mountain's gaze sharpened slightly. He was the first to detect the similar fluctuations in the Divine Souls of the people beside him and spoke in a deep voice:

"Changqing, Yin and Yang, Dragon Phoenix, did you sense it too?"

Heavenly Venerable Chang Qing slowly nodded, a rare trace of gravity appearing on his usually indifferent face:

"Indeed, it is the aura of an old acquaintance. A certain Great Emperor from history who had long since fallen... has returned."

Dao Sovereign Yin and Yang, for once, did not argue with Changqing. His tone was low and serious:

"Moreover, the method I planted on him back then has been broken. This person was most likely our common great enemy back then, otherwise I would not have personally intervened."

This Dao Sovereign was usually a slacker. Opponents that could make him break his rule and act were basically situations requiring all the Rulers of the Forbidden Zone to mobilize.

The problem was, the history of the Three Thousand Dao Provinces was too long, and the existence of these old monsters spanned too vast a time. The number of Great Emperors they had jointly besieged was simply too many.

"This old man's method has also been erased!"

"This humble monk's as well!"

"My restraint was also broken!"

Several voices sounded in succession, their tones filled with shock, anger, or a trace of disbelief.

The Lord of the Forbidden Zone who resembled a monk closed his eyes in deep thought, a vein bulging on his forehead, as he muttered a series of resounding Daoist titles that had shaken the ancient and modern eras.

"Who among those we dealt with with our full strength... Wushi? Chaos? Ditian? Or Azure Lotus, Taichu, Huangtian..."

"It could be any of them."

Heavenly Venerable Chang Qing's voice was icy cold:

"Almost none who walked to the end of the emperor road escaped being besieged by us."

It truly belonged to being utterly wicked.

The other party's identity could not be determined.

For a moment, the atmosphere within the hall became strange and oppressive.

Finally, after sensing for a moment, Dragon Phoenix, who had been silent all along, spoke up, bringing a piece of good news.

"Heh, it's fine. That person's method of breaking free has some flaws. My Silver Dragon Love Poison, used back then to hold the line, was not removed. If it cannot find release, He will most likely be crippled!"

Her red dress flared like fire, a trace of gloomy delight flashing through her Phoenix eyes:

"And the number of living beings required for a Quasi-Emperor level powerhouse to dispel the Silver Dragon Love Poison is calculated in the hundreds of millions, enough for us to easily discover the other party's trail."

Upon hearing this, the eyes of all the Rulers of the Forbidden Zone in the hall suddenly lit up.

The Silver Dragon Love Poison was Dragon Phoenix's unique secret technique. Although it couldn't be used for precise tracking, it could cause any Quasi-Emperor level powerhouse's desires to surge like tides, burning the heart and gnawing the bones. Without succumbing to the base instincts of carnal desire and filling the chasm with the ultimate bliss between man and woman, it was impossible to dispel, ultimately leading to a violent death.

Finding the other party was what mattered.

"Heh, Fellow Daoist Dragon Phoenix truly has foresight, to have left such a method behind. Admirable, admirable!"

"When the time comes, we only need to follow the trail of mountains of corpses and seas of blood to easily lock onto the location."

"Hahaha, in that case, all we need to do is wait for good news!"

Listening to these flatteries, a trace of pride and cunning flashed in Dragon Phoenix's eyes. As the Lord of the Forbidden Zone with the shallowest seniority, she most needed the recognition of the other Rulers.

Now that she had finally surpassed the other Rulers of the Forbidden Zone in some aspect, a sense of superiority spontaneously arose in her heart.

Moreover, Dragon Phoenix hadn't revealed all the information. She actually had some guesses about the identity of that revived Great Emperor.

After all, the beings that could make her use the Silver Dragon Love Poison were only those few peerless female emperors who were more stunning and more aloof than her, making countless beings feel ashamed of themselves.

"You all usually pretend to be pure and transcendent..."

Dragon Phoenix's red lips curved slightly, her voice pressed extremely low, audible only to herself:

"This seat wants to see just how depraved and debauched you will become in order to survive!"

...At the same moment.

Deep within the starry sky, in a desolate, dead-silent Star Domain.

Xu Jinhuan stood with his back to the crystal coffin, ostensibly gazing into the distance at the Three Thousand Dao Provinces, but in reality, he was continuously reciting the Heart-Cleansing Mantra.

For some reason, the mysterious woman's body emitted an aura that stirred the desires in one's heart. Even though Xu Jinhuan's 'ammunition' had been recently cleared by his Revered Master, he was still struggling to hold on.

"Damn it! Eternal Chaos Body, can't you be more capable? Can't you just help me become immune to this thing?!"

The Eternal Chaos Body was impervious to all poisons, indestructible through the ages, possessing a trace of true eternal essence, theoretically transcending all rules.

But the problem was, this aura was not poison at all.

The Eternal Chaos Body could ensure Xu Jinhuan wouldn't be directly drained to death, but it couldn't stop the increasingly turbulent, scorching heat rampaging through his Meridians.

Coupled with the fact that the mysterious woman's current aura had already surpassed the seventh level of Quasi-Emperor, making her an existence he couldn't possibly defeat.

Xu Jinhuan was afraid that if his gaze was improper, the awakened mysterious woman would mistake him for a pervert and execute him on the spot.

He had no choice but to keep his back to the crystal coffin to prove his innocence.

"If I had known this girl would cause my 'good brother' such discomfort, I would have helped her 'pour out her heart and lungs' and given her a quick release!"

Xu Jinhuan gritted his teeth, inwardly cursing furiously:

"Ancestor, please wake up quickly! Otherwise, I really can't hold on anymore. Revered Master isn't here, and in this state, I'll really die!"

His strongest Revered Master wasn't here. Even if he 'moistened' all his followers, 'moistened' them until they couldn't take care of themselves, it still wouldn't be enough to vent the terrifying scorching heat within his body.

The Eternal Chaos Body was just too overpowered!

Just as he was about to collapse, an extremely soft, yet supremely authoritative, cold snort suddenly came from within the crystal coffin.

The coffin lid slid open silently.

*Rustle!* —

The sound of fabric rubbing, mixed with the sound of skin friction.

It was likely the mysterious woman checking her own condition.

Under the influence of that inexplicable scorching heat, Xu Jinhuan's mind directly conjured up a thousand possible poses of the mysterious woman, each one filled with boundless spring scenery and infinite temptation.

After all, when her true body had appeared earlier, those completely tattered clothes didn't offer much coverage. The details of her body had been clearly visible to Xu Jinhuan.

*Gulp.*

Xu Jinhuan's throat moved, his whole body stiffening. He instinctively wanted to turn around but forcefully held back.

But then he thought, why should he endure?

He was originally free of impure thoughts. If not for that strange fragrance emanating from the other party, all these strange thoughts wouldn't have appeared!

"Dammit! I'll just be open and aboveboard. I'm not some timid little kid!"

Biting his heart, Xu Jinhuan turned around, his gaze unwavering, and spoke with a serious expression.

"You're finally awake?"

?

Seeing Xu Jinhuan like this, the mysterious woman was also taken aback for a moment before nodding faintly:

"Yes, thank you for saving me, Fellow Daoist."

Looking into Xu Jinhuan's eyes, she felt curiosity towards this young man, completely not expecting his gaze to be so clear.

What kind of perfect eyes were these?

Black and white distinct, a hint of golden light hidden deep within his brown pupils, like blazing suns, yet also like cold springs and the chill moon, yet devoid of warmth.

And not a trace of worldly desire could be felt.

To be able to achieve this under the influence of the Silver Dragon Love Poison she emitted...

To put it impolitely, even a eunuch wasn't as pure as this man.

How could there be such an unworldly bearing and such a firm Dao Heart in this world?

Moreover, his Realm was actually only at the God King Realm?!

With this thought, her attitude toward Xu Jinhuan became serious. She truly began to take this young man seriously, and her interest grew increasingly intense.

Coming back to her senses and assessing her own condition, the mysterious woman furrowed her brow. Her snow-white cheeks were tinged with an abnormal flush, her breathing was slightly rapid, and her fingertips trembled faintly.

Of course, she knew she was afflicted with the Silver Dragon Love Poison. She had known since over a hundred thousand years ago.

But back then, she possessed the complete Azure Lotus Great Dao, and her Dao Fruit was still intact, sufficient to suppress this strange poison. Now, without her Emperor Realm fruit, the poison she once regarded as trivial had become her death knell.

She raised a hand to press against her chest, forcefully circulating her Great Dao to suppress it. Yet, it only caused that wave of desire to retreat briefly before surging back even more fiercely in a backlash.

"Damn it! Dragon Phoenix, This seat will definitely kill you!"

The mysterious woman cursed under her breath, her voice carrying unprecedented fury and humiliation.

The surging, tide-like killing intent directly caused Xu Jinhuan's body to jolt, goosebumps rising all over from fright.

To be honest, he somewhat regretted rescuing this individual. If he had to save her, it should have been later. It was still too early now.

He was completely no match for her!

He even suspected that this severely injured woman had one foot already stepped into the Great Emperor Realm!

For a moment, he didn't dare even breathe heavily, only standing dumbly in place. His gaze grew increasingly clear, as if he had returned to his university lecture days, possessing an innocent beauty that had never been tainted by knowledge.

The Azure Lotus Empress took a deep breath, using her remaining Emperor power to finally temporarily regain control of her Physical Body.

She raised her eyes, her gaze falling upon Xu Jinhuan. Seeing his increasingly clear eyes, she couldn't help but feel approval in her heart.

In truth, although she had been dormant, she knew quite a bit about Xu Jinhuan's journey thus far, aware of this young man's terrifying combat prowess and monstrous talent.

The strongest Prodigy in the history of the Three Thousand Dao Provinces—Xu Jinhuan was truly worthy of the title!

This man was qualified to be her tool for detoxification.

As for the numerous women around Xu Jinhuan, she didn't really mind. Both sides were merely taking what they needed. Afterwards, they would go their separate ways, a clean break. How many women this guy had around him was none of her concern.

"You saved my life. This Emperor remembers it."

Xu Jinhuan hurriedly waved his hands. "Senior, you're too kind! It was just a small effort, really!"

"But this Emperor's current... situation is special."

She paused, as if having made an immense resolution, her voice low yet brooking no doubt:

"Don't move."

"?"

Before Xu Jinhuan could react, his entire body was pulled down by a force both pliant and irresistible.

Thud!

He fell onto his back on the cold coffin lid, his eyes wide as he stared at the peerless beauty who had suddenly closed in upon him.

The Azure Lotus Empress pressed one hand against his chest, the other braced beside his ear. Her long hair cascaded down, blocking the light between them.

She looked down at him from above, her flushed cheeks paired with those icy Emperor's eyes, creating an extreme contrast that was impactful.

The woman's warm breath brushed against his cheek, carrying a faint orchid fragrance mixed with the ambiguous aura stirred by the passion poison. It sent a numbing, electric sensation throughout his body, and his body's primal desire could no longer be suppressed.

Xu Jinhuan instantly understood what the other party intended to do:

"S-Senior?! T-This isn't very appropriate..."

"Shut up. Don't think this Emperor is unaware of your affairs with so many women. At this point, what innocent youth are you pretending to be for this Emperor?"

The Azure Lotus Empress's voice was hoarse. Having spoken, she actively pressed her red lips fiercely against his—warm, soft, like cotton candy, like velvet.

"Mmm..."

Feeling the softness at his lips, Xu Jinhuan felt somewhat speechless.

Why did he always encounter this kind of thing?

One after another, they all liked to assault him, insulting his purity. Was he some kind of check-in point that anyone could take a bite of or have a sit on?

A moment later, just before the true clash of forces, the woman with the aura of an Azure Lotus showed astonishment on her face, her eyes widening.

"Huh? Why is your body's structure different?"

Suddenly, she felt some regret and wanted to flee the battlefield.

It wouldn't fit, it really wouldn't fit!

This guy surnamed Xu, how was his talent in *this* aspect also so terrifying!

Sensing the other's retreat, Xu Jinhuan's lips twitched, and his expression turned somewhat unpleasant.

The fire's already been lit, and you still want to run? Dream on!

"Mmph!"

At this moment, the mysterious woman was nearly frantic with anxiety, wanting to struggle but finding her wrist firmly grasped, unable to move.

She never expected Xu Jinhuan to be so bold. Not long ago, he was still respectfully calling her 'Senior,' yet now he directly turned the tables, flipping over to become the Revered Master.

Most crucially, due to the passion poison within her, she couldn't even resist... "What do you think you're doing?!"

"Heh, talk about things you don't want. Today's matter can only be discussed later! Even if the Azure Lotus Great Emperor behind you comes, it's useless!"

"Wuuu—"

The entire desolate Star Domain seemed to tremble faintly, the stars dimming.

That Azure Lotus, which had stunned countless ages, welcomed the most splendid bloom of her life... It lasted a full seven days before the strange poison on the mysterious woman was finally half-removed, her Realm recovering to the Seventh Heaven of Quasi-Emperor.

Now, she was no longer her former aloof, detached self, indifferent to everything. She looked at the naked figure beside her with a gaze full of resentment.

"What a beast!"

She inwardly scolded, yet couldn't help stealing another glance at that perfect Chaos Body Physique. An unusual emotion flickered in her eyes as she stared intently at Xu Jinhuan.

"Speaking of which, what kind of Physique is this guy exactly? My Azure Lotus Dao Body was almost pierced through by him!"

"Moreover, with his talent so terrifying, after obtaining my Azure Lotus Primordial Yin, who knows how many steps forward he'll take!"

At this very moment.

Xu Jinhuan's eyes were tightly shut as he focused all his efforts on refining the vast, immense Primordial Yin energy within his body.

During those seven days of intense battle, his Physique had passively refined a small portion of it, helping him rise three levels consecutively, advancing his Realm to the Seventh Heaven of the God King Realm.

Now, he had even reached the Peak of the Eighth Heaven of the God King Realm, just a step away from the Ninth Heaven.

"God King Ninth Heaven, break for me!"

With a furious roar in his heart, the Bottleneck shattered without the slightest hesitation.

"Forget it, let's stop here for now. I've been leveling up too quickly recently. My combat power has only increased to the Peak of Quasi-Emperor, and my Realm feels somewhat unstable. I need to temper it properly."

Halting his Breakthrough progress, Xu Jinhuan gazed at the remaining large portion of Azure Lotus energy within him, lost in thought.

This was the mysterious woman's Primordial Yin power. The remaining energy was sufficient for him to break through to the Late Stage or even the Peak of the Saint Realm.

One must know, while cultivating, he also had to awaken his Eternal Chaos Body. His resource consumption was akin to a bottomless pit. For mere Primordial Yin power to offer him such great assistance...

The mysterious woman's status was higher than he had imagined!

"Such terrifying Primordial Yin power. She must at least be a Great Emperor!"

Instantly, a terrifying conjecture surfaced in Xu Jinhuan's mind.

"Could it be... I actually slept with the Azure Lotus Great Emperor?"
