70: Chapter 70 Ten Thousand Poison Beads
Bang!
Two figures crossed paths.
Ji Yebai looked at the other with a hint of surprise.
While Shao Caixuan retreated rapidly, drenched in cold sweat.
She knew Ji Yebai was fast, but she hadn't expected him to be this fast.
Even under the shroud of her Internal Energy, his speed wasn't affected at all, appearing at her side in an instant.
Had she not reacted in time, that single punch would likely have left her severely injured.
"I didn't expect you to be so fast. Don't blame me then!"
Shao Caixuan steadied herself, her gaze turning cruel.
She had originally intended to subdue Ji Yebai without harming him to use him as a cultivation vessel!
But she hadn't expected Ji Yebai to exceed her expectations.
In that case, just die!
The surging Internal Energy within her body erupted.
Her long black hair danced wildly.
But that wasn't all.
Specks of golden light emerged, densely covering the entire space.
A numbing aura enveloped the area.
Golden Light Gu!
The Golden Light Gu could not only assist in cultivation but could also be used as a Sharp Weapon for attack.
These Golden Light Gu could absorb a Martial Artist's Internal Energy and their vital blood.
They were the most esteemed Gu insects of the Five Poisons Sect.
She had specifically raised them after the recovery of Spiritual Qi.
Ji Yebai watched Shao Caixuan quietly.
Watching the hundreds of golden specks flying around her.
He had originally intended to knock Shao Caixuan unconscious.
For no other reason...
...than the people in the surrounding houses who were like the walking dead.
He could sense a strange aura within their bodies.
That aura was identical to the golden Gu insects before him.
Therefore, he worried that killing the woman directly would cause all those people to die as well.
But he hadn't expected this woman's strength to be quite decent.
She had actually managed to dodge his sneak attack.
"So the weakness is here!"
Ji Yebai clicked his tongue in wonder.
When the woman released the golden Gu insects, he had also sensed her weakness.
"Weakness!?"
Shao Caixuan was stunned for a moment, then she laughed. "Such big talk!"
The next moment, Shao Caixuan circulated her Internal Energy, and her whole body rose into the air.
Vast Internal Energy suspended her in mid-air.
A large number of golden specks converged around her, their wings constantly fluttering.
"I want to see how you break this Move!!"
Shao Caixuan sneered, and her Internal Energy erupted once more.
Surges of white Internal Energy gushed out, permeating her surroundings.
Buzz!
In an instant.
The hundreds of golden specks around her went wild.
They rushed rapidly toward the white Internal Energy.
In just a single breath, all the Internal Energy was devoured.
But at the same time...
...the golden specks suddenly flared with brilliant golden light.
"Go!!!"
In an instant.
Hundreds of golden light clusters lunged fiercely toward Ji Yebai.
Every golden cluster was filled with a strange, sharp edge.
Like sharp swords, they converged on Ji Yebai like meteors.
Shao Caixuan watched this scene with total confidence.
Ji Yebai was fast, but she was confident that no matter how fast he was, it would be useless against such a wide-area Move.
For a moment, Shao Caixuan looked down at Ji Yebai, scrutinizing him.
What a pity. If I could have kept him unharmed, I could have enjoyed him for a while...
Shao Caixuan was secretly lamenting.
However...
...the scene that followed made her face change drastically, as if she had seen a ghost.
A surge of five-colored Internal Energy gushed out, forming a three-foot Qi wall.
Countless meteor-like golden clusters slammed into the Qi wall; like eggs hitting a rock, they were extinguished one after another without even causing a ripple.
"This is impossible!!"
Shao Caixuan looked at Ji Yebai in horror.
Her expression was filled with terror.
The moment that five-colored Internal Energy erupted...
...she felt a bone-chilling cold.
What an immense Internal Energy!
What a heavy Internal Energy!
A second before that Internal Energy erupted, Ji Yebai seemed like an ordinary Martial Artist, but a second later, he was like a surging tidal wave from the deep sea.
Heavy, scorching, vast...
In an instant, Shao Caixuan sensed three different Concepts.
"How is this possible!?"
At this thought, Shao Caixuan screamed aloud.
To give birth to a Concept, she had to refine the Golden Light Mother Gu.
How could someone comprehend three Concepts!?
How could her pride endure this?
The five-colored Internal Energy erupted, causing the vibrating air to ripple.
Clusters of golden light fell like rain, losing their lives in the vibration and dropping one after another.
Gold and colors intertwined.
The surging air spread out in circles.
Just then.
Ji Yebai took a step and appeared right in front of Shao Caixuan.
Without saying a word, he extended his index finger and pointed forward.
Five Elements Internal Energy condensed, and his index finger emitted a unique halo.
"No!!!"
Shao Caixuan screamed, her pupils dilating.
She saw Ji Yebai's intention.
At this moment.
She suddenly remembered Ji Yebai's initial words.
He really did see my weakness!
A strong sense of regret welled up within Shao Caixuan.
A finger pointed out.
Shao Caixuan retreated with all her might.
But no matter how fast she was, even as she twisted and turned, that finger moved steadily toward her chest.
Bang!
Shao Caixuan's Internal Energy surged, and her clothes instantly burst.
Her snowy-white skin was revealed without reservation.
Her eyes were fixed on Ji Yebai.
Damn man, hesitate, be dazed!
With a distorted expression, Shao Caixuan retreated rapidly while staring at Ji Yebai, trying to find a fleeting opening in his aura.
However...
The next moment...
...that unwavering finger, which didn't tremble even a fraction, made her feel as if she were falling into an abyss.
"Damn it!"
"Why!?"
Shao Caixuan was in despair.
Puchi!
The finger landed on her chest.
Her large breasts provided no defense whatsoever.
In an instant.
A finger force entwined with five colors pierced through her heart.
A mist of blood sprayed from her back, mixed with dissipating golden light.
"Are you even a ma... pfft!"
Before Shao Caixuan could finish, she spat out a mouthful of blood.
She had wanted to distract Ji Yebai, but she hadn't expected him to be completely unaffected.
This left Shao Caixuan fuming with rage.
At the same time, Shao Caixuan's aura plummeted.
Under Ji Yebai's calm gaze, her strength rapidly fell from the First-class level like a leaking balloon.
The Golden Light Mother Gu possessed its own will; Shao Caixuan had refined its will and merged it with her own consciousness, and the combination had given birth to her Divine Will.
The Golden Light Mother Gu's will had perished, leaving only its body, which Shao Caixuan kept at her heart.
This unconscious Golden Light Mother Gu was Shao Caixuan's weakness.
It was only when she released those hundreds of Golden Light Sub-Gu that Ji Yebai detected this through a hidden aura.
Ji Yebai glanced at Shao Caixuan, then turned his gaze toward the houses in the surrounding village.
The hunched figures were still standing there.
Ji Yebai lowered his eyes. "Do you know about the yi wood myriad poison pearl?"
There were no obstacles now!
Furthermore, the Five Poisons Sect was named after poison.
And the yi wood myriad poison pearl also contained the word 'poison'.
Hence, Ji Yebai had this question.
"Cough, cough, cough..."
Shao Caixuan kept coughing up blood.
Her heart had been pierced, a severe injury.
Hearing Ji Yebai's question, she gave a miserable smile, blood coating her teeth. "yi wood myriad poison pearl? What is that? I've heard of the ten thousand poisons bead, though!"
"If you save me, I can take you to it!"
Shao Caixuan's arrogance had vanished, and her aura began to grow weak.
Having lost the Golden Light Mother Gu's will, her temperament returned to its original state.
"Fine!"
Ji Yebai pointed a finger, and Five Elements Internal Energy flowed out, instantly enveloping her shattered heart.
Although it didn't restore the heart, the Internal Energy prevented it from rupturing further.
Shao Caixuan smiled miserably.
She pointed. "That way!"
Whoosh!
With a whistle of wind, Ji Yebai instantly grabbed her arm and moved forward.
Shao Caixuan was completely naked, her snowy skin exposed, but it didn't distract Ji Yebai in the slightest.
The next instant.
The two landed.
Ji Yebai let go, and Shao Caixuan's snowy body tumbled onto the muddy ground.
Shao Caixuan couldn't help but let out a soft groan.
"The ten thousand poisons bead is inside!?"
Ji Yebai's eyes were fixed on the pitch-black cave before him.
The cave, nearly two meters wide, emitted waves of foul stench.
"Yes!"
Shao Caixuan forced a smile. "Do you want to go in and take a look?"
Ji Yebai gave her an indifferent look.
He reached out, pried off a piece of rubble, and tossed it in his hand.
Swish!
The next moment, the rubble turned into a black shadow as Ji Yebai threw it into the cave.
The pebble, carrying Five Elements Internal Energy, vanished into the darkness.
Shao Caixuan's face stiffened.
The next moment.
A roar suddenly erupted from the pitch-black cave.
A violent, bloody stench also wafted out.
Ji Yebai frowned slightly.
He had no recollection of what kind of animal would make such a roar.
While Ji Yebai was lost in thought...
...a series of intense noises came from the huge cave.
Rumble!
The ground began to shake, as if a tank were passing through.
The next moment.
A massive figure came crashing out.
Ji Yebai flew backward.
Only then did he see what was before him.
A giant spider.
Two meters in size, with terrifying fangs and covered in stiff, upright bristles!
It was soul-chilling.
"This is the Heavenly Wolf Poison Spider. The ten thousand poisons bead you want is its inner core!"
Shao Caixuan smoothed her hair and laughed.
This was the sacred object of their Five Poisons Sect.
It had been fed with various poisons for decades.
Even before the recovery of Heaven and Earth Spiritual Qi, they had raised this poison spider through generations until it reached half a meter in size, and an inner core had even formed within it.
This inner core was formed from the accumulation of toxins from decades of feeding, and it was extremely poisonous.
It could melt even rock and steel.
Just as now, white smoke rose from the ground where it crawled.
"Such a poisonous creature cannot be allowed to live!"
Ji Yebai's face was also full of gravity as he looked at it.
Poison is a very terrifying thing.
Even at Ji Yebai's current level, he didn't dare claim to be immune to all toxins.
Not to mention how terrifyingly powerful this giant poison spider was!
Ji Yebai immediately became serious.
He took a step, drawing power from the ground; the massive reaction force made his figure blur instantly.
In an instant, he crossed ten meters and appeared above the giant poison spider.
He smashed his fist fiercely onto the spider's head.
The giant poison spider was instantly smashed down!
However...
The next moment...
...it was Ji Yebai whose expression changed drastically.
Deep Internal Energy gushed out, making the poison spider stagger, and he took the opportunity to retreat.
With a flip, he retreated more than ten meters away.
"It can even corrode Internal Energy!?"
Ji Yebai was secretly amazed.
This was the first time he had seen such a thing.
Despite receiving such a heavy punch from Ji Yebai, the giant poison spider only had some cracks in its limbs, with wisps of green fluid seeping out.
The poison spider stood up unsteadily.
Its dense row of eyes all looked toward Ji Yebai.
It was hair-raising.
"Hahaha, this is the Heavenly Wolf Poison Spider. Since the recovery of Spiritual Qi, its poison can even corrode the Internal Energy of a First-Class Martial Artist!"
A look of pride appeared on Shao Caixuan's face.
Ji Yebai gave her an indifferent glance.
His Internal Energy slowly rose, and an aura of killing intent emerged.
Heavy Internal Energy enveloped the poison spider, making its body tremble as if a giant boulder were pressing on its back.
Ji Yebai's Internal Energy slowly converged, and a five-colored halo once again enveloped his right fist.
The Longevity Fist has thirty-six Moves; the thirty-sixth Move is actually a finishing blow, and its destructive power upon eruption is immense.
However...
Just then...
...the poison spider's abdomen suddenly contracted.
The next moment, a black shadow was suddenly spat out, shooting toward Ji Yebai like a sharp arrow.
Ji Yebai immediately sidestepped and threw out his right hand, which was filled with Five Elements Internal Energy.
Bang!
The black shadow was sent flying back.
"Hmm!? This smell..."
Ji Yebai's brow furrowed.
Circulating his Internal Energy, he looked solemnly at the poison spider!
In just the blink of an eye, he actually felt a hint of dizziness.
His gaze swept toward the poison spider's mouth.
There...
...a pitch-black pellet was spinning rapidly.
"This is the ten thousand poisons bead!?"
Ji Yebai frowned.
It really is poisonous enough.
Swish!
The poison spider spat again, and the pitch-black pellet attacked once more.
"Do you really think I can't handle you!?"
Ji Yebai narrowed his eyes and suddenly sidestepped.
Dense Internal Energy gathered in his right foot, and the vast power of heaven and earth was also drawn in.
Ji Yebai spun around and, with his right foot wrapped in Heaven and Earth Spiritual Qi, kicked the pellet fiercely.
Boom!!!
The entire air shook violently, and a patch of white mist appeared out of nowhere.
Sonic boom!
A massive sonic boom cloud appeared.
The pitch-black pellet flew directly into the distance.
Its speed was like a bullet, vanishing from sight in an instant.
Shao Caixuan: "..."
Heavenly Wolf Poison Spider: "..."
They had never imagined such a scene would occur.
The inner core was formed from a stone within the poison spider's body wrapped in layers of venom, which it had continuously refined.
It had long since been able to control it freely.
Under the control of the spiritual power within its body, the poison spider could manipulate the inner core to attack others.
But there was a prerequisite.
It had to be within the range of its Spiritual Qi control.
But now, Ji Yebai's kick had sent the inner core flying to who knows how far away.
Carrying spiritual power and part of the poison spider's Mental Energy, the inner core broke the speed of sound and vanished in an instant.
The tearing of its spiritual power and mind caused the poison spider to go berserk instantly.
Squeaking sounds, like the rubbing of leather, echoed throughout the space along with the poison spider's frenzy.
Ji Yebai leaped into the air again and threw a punch.
The vast power of heaven and earth was instantly mobilized, and a massive fist print appeared in the air.
The fist print shot forward rapidly, growing larger as it flew.
Finally, it was half a meter in size and landed heavily on the poison spider's head.
In an instant.
The terrifying force directly pierced through the poison spider's entire skull.
It exploded!
...
In the end.
Ji Yebai did not kill Shao Caixuan but instead destroyed her Dantian.
The dark figures in the surrounding residences were also called out.
They were all sallow and emaciated, like squeezed-out squids.
Shao Caixuan's body was exposed to everyone, but these men all had expressions of utter indifference, unable to muster the slightest interest.
Finally, Ji Yebai called the police!
Both Shao Caixuan and these squid-like men needed care.
Ji Yebai had no desire to look after them, so he simply handed them over to the police.
Having finished the deed, he brushed off his clothes and departed, hiding his merit and fame!
With all worldly matters settled, Ji Yebai turned back toward the forest.
That ten thousand poisons bead was a hidden danger!
