Poison Law

"Yi Yun, you're unlucky to have run into me. This match will be one you'll never forget!"

Before the match began, Viper's telepathic message reached Yi Yun's ears.

Yi Yun frowned slightly. This Viper had been watching him from the very beginning. It was definitely not because he had abused Sun Long, otherwise he wouldn't have taken the initiative to challenge him.

"Why are you targeting me?" Yi Yun asked using his spiritual energy. He didn't believe that Viper was interested in him just because he had won the previous rookie ranking competition. Viper was obviously very arrogant, and it was unlikely that he would be interested in someone like him, whose cultivation level was one realm lower than his.

Yi Yun suspected that someone was deliberately trying to target him.

"Heh heh, you still have the mind to care about this? Looks like you don't understand your situation yet. What's about to begin is my torture of you. If you admit defeat now, it might not be too late. Otherwise, I'll make sure you can't speak, and I'll make you a hundred times worse off than Sun Long!"

As Viper spoke, the Enforcement Envoy had come specifically to referee the main battle was already asking the two if they were ready.

This Enforcement Envoy was from Tai'a Divine City. He was mainly asking Yi Yun about it because he discovered that Yi Yun hadn't drawn his weapon yet.

"Ready."

Yi Yun nodded, casually moved his wrist, and raised the still-dripping brick in his hand.

Um?

The Enforcement Envoy was taken aback. Was Yi Yun really going to just start fighting like this?

Not only the Enforcement Envoy, Viper also Wen Yu and the others behind Yi Yun were stunned. They all felt that Yi Yun would have a very difficult time defeating Viper due to the difference in their cultivation levels, yet he didn't even use his weapon?

"That kid is such a worry!"

Not far away, Cang Yan was both amused and exasperated. This kid Yi Yun had chosen the <Myriad Beast Catalog> as his Totem Secret Method, learned the sword from the Blade Tomb, and then entered the Sword Tomb. Now he was wielding a brick to fight against a genius from the Cloud Dragon Divine Kingdom who was a realm higher than him.

Are these things even humanly done?

Upon hearing Yi Yun's words, Viper burst into laughter, "Are you out of your mind? You think you can deal with me without even using your weapons?"

Yi Yun laughed, "Who told you this isn't my weapon? I said, I only use my knife against those who are worthy of respect or powerful opponents. To deal with scum and idiots, a brick is enough."

Yi Yun's words made Wen Yu and the others hold their breath. This Viper was already a madman, and Yi Yun had actually provoked him. If he really went berserk, who knew what the outcome of the competition would be.

The Viper's face contorted into a ferocious grin; his pupils had swollen into spindle shapes, like a snake's. "So that's it... you want me to send you on your way!"

"Call out--"

The Viper lunged forward with incredible speed, its body moving as if it had no bones, skimming along the ground like a swift python!

Such bizarre Movement Technique was something many people were seeing for the first time.

"Die!"

The Viper lashed out with its claws. Its weapon was also a steel claw. And its claws, moving from top to bottom, were aimed directly at Yi Yun's chin!

Once it pierces through, the steel claw will penetrate Yi Yun's chin and into his mouth, tearing his tongue apart, which will naturally render Yi Yun speechless.

Viper was also trying to make sure that Yi Yun couldn't admit defeat.

Yi Yun's eyes turned cold, and he raised the brick in his hand, smashing it directly down at the Viper's claws!

A brick against a steel claw—the blunt weapon of a brick is naturally more advantageous. Just then, the venomous snake coiled on the Viper's shoulder flew out, heading straight for Yi Yun's chest.

Heart-Piercing Snake!

Yi Yun had a deep impression of this snake. A year ago, a few days before he went out to the Divine Desolation Training, a three-person trial team was wiped out. The reason was simply that they mistook the Heart-Piercing Snake for the Golden Thread Snake.

This Heart-Piercing Snake is an extremely dangerous wild beast, but how can Viper control it? In Yi Yun's memory, it is very difficult for humans to tame wild beasts!

Yi Yun didn't have time to think. Seeing the Heart-Piercing Snake about to bite his heart, he flew backward.

Viper followed closely behind, a sinister smile flashing across his lips. "You're finished!"

The Viper suddenly unleashed a murderous aura, which merged with the Viper energy within its body, transforming into a visible black current. This current filled Yi Yun's surroundings, like iron chains, sealing off all of Yi Yun's escape routes!

"Let's see how you hide now!"

The Viper lunged at Yi Yun with its claws, and at the same time, the Heart-Piercing Snake on his shoulder shot into Yi Yun 'Yi Yun mouth, intending to swallow his tongue!

Just as the Heart-Piercing Snake was about to bite Yi Yun, Yi Yun's body twisted strangely, and a thick afterimage appeared. Yi Yun's body seemed to have turned into a nimble swift, soaring freely through the air.

The Subtle Movement Technique!

"Whoosh whoosh whoosh!"

Yi Yun abruptly changed direction in mid-air, tracing an incredible trajectory through the gaps in the chains of killing intent! He dodged more than a dozen chains of killing intent in succession, but when he could no longer avoid the last few, Yi Yun grabbed a brick and smashed it down.

"Boom boom boom!"

The three chains of murderous intent were smashed by Yi Yun!

"Hiss!"

The hissing of venomous snakes suddenly rang out behind Yi Yun!

This Heart-Piercing Snake, like a maggot clinging to a bone, kept following Yi Yun.

It was incredibly fast, almost becoming a streak of light, but Yi Yun didn't even glance at it. Within his Energy Vision, he perfectly captured the attack trajectory of the Heart-Piercing Snake!

Yi Yun retaliated with a brick!

"Boom!"

Yi Yun's brick landed squarely on the triangular head of the Heart-Piercing Snake!

With a mournful cry, the Heart-Piercing Snake was smashed away by Yi Yun!

"What?"

Seeing the Heart-Piercing Snake fly out, and with most of its killing intent dispersed by Yi Yun, the Viper was greatly alarmed.

With such a blunt weapon, Yi Yun's attack speed should have been extremely limited, but the Heart-Piercing Snake was as fast as lightning, and Yi Yun actually hit it squarely with a brick!

The Viper's spindle-shaped pupils stared at Yi Yun, a hint of shock flashing in its eyes.

The exchange between the two took only a moment; many people didn't even have time to react, and even Wen Yu and the others didn't quite see the process of their fight.

The battle was so intense and fast-paced that it was impossible to breathe.

"Senior Brother Yi is amazing! He's holding his own!" In Wen Yu's and the others' eyes, it was already quite remarkable to fight against the Origin Foundation Realm expert without being at a disadvantage.

"Senior Brother Yi hasn't drawn his sword yet!"

The newcomers in Yi Yun's group all had shining eyes.

Although Yi Yun didn't draw his sword against the Viper, anyone who thinks Yi Yun, who only uses bricks, is weak is sorely mistaken.

As Yi Yun said, bricks were also his weapons.

Viper's face was gloomy. In their first encounter, he thought he could secure the victory directly, but unexpectedly, Yi Yun launched a counterattack and injured his Heart-Piercing Snake instead.

With his Origin Foundation Realm cultivation, he fought against a Purple Blood Peak opponent who was a year younger than him, yet he couldn't kill him in one move. This made Viper feel ashamed.

"Hiss hiss hiss--"

The Heart-Piercing Snake, which Yi Yun had knocked to the ground, flicked its tongue and crawled back onto the Viper's shoulder.

Seeing this, Yi Yun was slightly startled. The Heart-Piercing Snake taken a solid hit from him, but it had survived and was not dead.

This snake is stronger than a typical Heart-Piercing Snake!

"Call--"

Just then, green energy burst forth from the Heart-Piercing Snake, like miasma rising from a swamp. The Heart-Piercing Snake crackled and popped all over its body, and a new layer of scales grew on its body. These scales were sharp and pointed, like blades.

"This is..." Yi Yun was stunned. How could the Heart-Piercing Snake transform?

Moreover, this feeling is just like... Dharma Aspect Totem!

"Kid, the Heart-Piercing Snake on Viper's shoulder is actually a puppet made from the corpse of Heart-Piercing Snake. And Viper's Dharma Aspect Totem is also in the shape of a snake. He has fused the Dharma Aspect Totem and the puppet snake into one. He's about to use his real skills, so be careful!"

Just then, Yi Yun heard Cang Yan's voice transmission through his spiritual energy.

Heart-Piercing Snake puppet? Fusion with Dharma Aspect Totem? Such a technique exists?

Yi Yun was amazed. The path of martial arts truly had many paths, with all sorts of strange and wonderful combat methods emerging one after another.

Viper roared, his body billowing with green smoke. The Purple Tungsten Steel arena beneath his feet, upon being touched by this green smoke, began to hiss and crackle, riddled with holes.

Such a potent poison?

Many people held their breath. It can even corrode Purple Tungsten Steel; if it got on a person, wouldn't it burn away their bones?

"Yi Yun, you are indeed very strong. You were able to force me to use my Dharma Aspect Totem and the Deadly Poison Law. That's quite remarkable." The Viper approached Yi Yun step by step, intending to use its deadly poison to corrode Yi Yun's entire body.

Yi Yun remained silent, flexing his wrists and twirling the metal brick in his hand.

"Aren't you going to draw your sword? You're courting death!!" Viper roared in fury. He, Origin Foundation Realm, was already tarnishing his reputation as a genius by fighting against Yi Yun, Purple Blood Peak. But he didn't expect that even after he had unleashed his Dharma Aspect Totem, Yi Yun still wouldn't draw his sword. Even if he won, it wouldn't be a glorious victory.

"I've said it before, my knife is only for respectable opponents. As scum, you're more suited to a brick."

Yi Yun's voice was indifferent. Wen Yu and the others around the arena listened with their mouths slightly open, speechless. At this point, Viper had revealed all his moves, and Yi Yun not only didn't draw his sword, but also kept cursing Viper as scum.

"Don't provoke him any further..." Wen Yu thought to herself. She had read Viper's complete file and knew Viper character well; he was a pervert and cruel man. She was afraid that in this battle, Viper might use some underhanded tricks to inflict irreparable injuries on Yi Yun.

"I will corrode your flesh and blood, bit by bit, until it's completely gone!"

Viper roared, and his two steel claws turned a hazy, ghastly green, casting a green haze over the entire arena number eight.

This green smoke is dozens of times denser than the miasma of the Blackwater Swamp!

The swamp's miasma might allow a martial artist to hold out for a short while, but within this green smoke, even weapons crafted by a master craftsman would be corroded.

To cultivate the Poison Law, one must devour various highly poisonous substances and transform one's own vital energy into highly poisonous energy.

Legend has it that when the Poison Law is cultivated to its highest level, it can pollute all the Heaven and Earth Yuan Qi of a world into highly toxic gas, corroding the entire world and turning it into vast swamps of poisonous wasteland!

All the highly poisonous gas converged on Yi Yun; this was an attack that no metal brick could withstand!
