Magic Core in Hand!

As the green creature emerged, Lu Chuan finally saw what it truly looked like.

It was a massive serpent-like magical beast, its enormous body covered in a layer of azure-green scales. As it writhed, the azure-green swamp churned violently.

This colossal creature was precisely Lu Chuan's target for this journey.

The Azure Poison Python!

The Magical Beast King of the Azure Poison Swamp!

At that moment, the Azure Poison Python fixed its huge, icy eyes on the Golden Feathered Eagle descending into the valley.

The last time, in order to probe its strength, the Golden Feathered Eagle had deliberately entered the valley to provoke it. It had enraged the Azure Poison Python and was about to battle it, only to flee directly by relying on its incredible flying speed.

Therefore, seeing the Golden Feathered Eagle daring to return again, the Azure Poison Python was naturally furious, its killing intent surging as it vowed to keep it here for good.

"Xiao Yi Xian should like this place."

Lu Chuan surveyed Azure Poison Valley. The air was filled with dense poisonous miasma, while all sorts of poisonous grasses and flowers grew throughout it.

Within the azure-green swamp, many rare venomous insects and snakes could be seen running rampant.

In short, every corner of this valley was filled with highly toxic things.

For Xiao Yi Xian, whose Calamity Poison Body had already awakened and who craved poison as if it were life itself, Azure Poison Valley was simply paradise!

"Roar!"

Just as he was examining the valley, the Azure Poison Python below finally could not hold back any longer and launched its attack.

It opened its bloodstained maw and sprayed a stream of green venom directly at the Golden Feathered Eagle. Wherever the venom passed, even the air sizzled and smoked, enough to make one's scalp tingle.

"This thing is practically treasure from head to toe..."

Lu Chuan looked at the massive azure-green python, a faint smile appearing on his lips. A peak Sixth-tier poison-attributed magical beast—any piece cut from its body would be an exceptionally high-grade poison.

If he brought this creature's corpse back, it would be enough for Xiao Yi Xian to use for quite some time.

Just as the venom was about to touch the Golden Feathered Eagle, a purple barrier instantly appeared, protecting Lu Chuan and the Golden Feathered Eagle within it.

Sizzle, sizzle, sizzle!

The venom landed on the purple barrier, hissing as great clouds of black smoke rose up, yet it was unable to break through its defenses.

Though the Azure Poison Python's venom was potent, before Lu Chuan's Dou Zong strength, the gap in power naturally suppressed its poison.

"Roar?" (What?)

The instant Lu Chuan acted, the Azure Poison Python finally noticed that there was another powerful expert on the Golden Feathered Eagle's back, and its heart jolted in alarm.

Judging from the aura Lu Chuan had just released, it understood that this was not an opponent it could resist.

With that thought, it immediately tried to burrow back into the swamp.

But at that moment, a streak of purple light suddenly shot from the Golden Feathered Eagle's back and landed before the Azure Poison Python, revealing Lu Chuan's figure.

In his human form, Lu Chuan appeared exceedingly small before the enormous Azure Poison Python.

Yet the terrifying pressure emanating from him made the latter's heart tremble with fear. It sprayed a stream of poisonous water at Lu Chuan and prepared to flee into the swamp.

"You have chosen death!"

Lu Chuan sneered. Two purple beams suddenly shot from his eyes and struck the creature squarely on its enormous head.

"Roar!"

As the purple beams landed, the Azure Poison Python immediately felt its soul being torn apart and could not help letting out a pained roar!

Before the Azure Poison Python could recover from the agony in its soul, a thick Purple Light Pillar descended onto its body.

Lu Chuan showed no mercy from the very first move. He was already far stronger than the Azure Poison Python, and having taken an antidote pill, he had no fear of the poison on its body.

In merely a few exchanges, the Azure Poison Python, which had been brimming with vitality moments ago, went limp. Every time it tried to burrow into the swamp, Lu Chuan blocked it with a powerful offensive.

"Master is mighty!"

A moment later, the Golden Feathered Eagle descended. Looking at the Azure Poison Python's corpse sprawled motionlessly on the ground, its eyes held a trace of fervor as it looked at Lu Chuan.

Of course, there was also a trace of relief.

Master was simply too ruthless. He had ignored even the Azure Poison Python's pleas for mercy and killed it outright.

Fortunately, Master had shown it mercy back then. Otherwise, it would likely have long since become a corpse as well.

Lu Chuan said nothing. With his current strength, killing a Sixth-tier Magical Beast truly took little effort.

With a casual wave, he sent out a purple blade of light that split open the Azure Poison Python's head, revealing a black Magic Core.

Lu Chuan beckoned with his hand and stored the Magic Core in his Storage Ring, a smile appearing on his lips.

The peak Sixth-tier poison-attributed Magic Core was now in hand. Next, he could refine the Myriad Poison Pill.

Afterward, Lu Chuan collected the Azure Poison Python's corpse and also gathered a large quantity of poisonous herbs and poisons from the valley before mounting the Golden Feathered Eagle's back and returning toward his Cave Mansion.

Because of the Seven-Colored Lotus, the mountain where Lu Chuan currently resided possessed several times more heaven and earth energy than other places.

And because the Seven-Colored Lotus had been planted there, Lu Chuan's Cave Mansion was likewise filled with exceptionally dense heaven and earth energy.

At this moment, outside the Cave Mansion.

Xiao Yan stood guard at the entrance, greedily absorbing the natural energy gathering from all around.

"Brother Blue, move over a little. You're crowding me."

Looking at the Blue Eagle occupying such a large area, Xiao Yan could not help complaining.

Hearing this, the Blue Eagle, which had been snoring away, raised its eyes to glance at him but ignored him.

Here, it feared everyone—but not this human who was only a Dou Zhe.

"You..."

Xiao Yan looked at the unmoving Blue Eagle, the corner of his mouth twitching slightly. But he knew that it was Xiao Yi Xian's beloved pet.

Its owner was currently Master's favorite, so Xiao Yan naturally did not dare offend it. He could only move a little farther outside the Cave Mansion.

Ever since receiving Lu Chuan's permission, Xiao Yan would come to cultivate outside this Cave Mansion whenever he had time.

Although he had already submitted to Lu Chuan, Xiao Yan had not forgotten his Three-Year Agreement with Nalan Yanran.

He had to seize every moment to cultivate and defeat Nalan Yanran at the Three-Year Agreement!

However, whenever he thought of this, Xiao Yan felt somewhat worried.

Nalan Yanran's teacher had become Mistress. If he defeated Nalan Yanran when the time came, would Mistress be angry?

But then he remembered that Master had promised to help him win the Three-Year Agreement, which finally put his mind at ease.

Since Master had already given his word, with his strength, he would naturally be able to help me defeat Nalan Yanran.

Besides, Nalan Yanran probably still did not know that her teacher had become Master's woman.

Without Mistress's support as her teacher, could you still remain as lofty as before in the Misty Cloud Sect, Nalan Yanran?

Thinking of this, the corners of Xiao Yan's mouth could not help lifting slightly.
