The outskirts of the Sunset Forest.

Inside a crater, a blob of black liquid crawled out while cursing up a storm.

"Damn it... I was on a rooftop talking a girl down from jumping a second ago, and the next, I get sent flying off the roof by a Dayun truck? What kind of international joke is this?"

"Do I have to get elbowed by a Dayun Superman just to transmigrate? And on a rooftop, no less?! Could this be any more absurd?!"

After a bout of venting, Jiang Ce resigned himself to his fate.

"Fine, at least I turned into Venom, even if the process hurt like hell."

He wobbled his viscous body, adapting to this new symbiote form.

Sensing a humanoid heat source a hundred meters away, he slithered over silently.

The person was lying face down, black hair scattered among the dead leaves, clothes charred and tattered, revealing a patch of snow-white back.

"...To have this kind of scale even while lying flat, could it be an E-cup?"

He didn't hesitate to crawl into the exposed white crevice and measure it carefully.

"Chest circumference 105, 38E."

"The interior space is spacious and comfortable, with excellent shock absorption. You're the one."

Although the stronger the host's base strength, the greater the boost he could receive, who wouldn't want a beautiful woman as a mount?

Venom began to infiltrate her body, only to discover—

The host had six broken ribs, a fractured left arm, and extensive internal hemorrhaging.

"Damn, did I shock her into this state when I slammed into the crater?"

"Running into this lord, consider yourself lucky that your life isn't meant to end here."

He immediately activated Venom's super-healing ability, stabilizing her vital signs, repairing her internal organs, and resetting her broken bones, all while beginning to read the host's memories.

Jiang Ce froze.

"Yan Lingji?"

"And she hasn't been long under the command of the Baiyue Crown Prince, nor has she been locked in the water dungeon? Could this world be The Legend of Qin??"

"Still, there are plenty of beauties here... Zi Nu, Nong Yu, Hong Lian, Tide Enchantress... Heh heh, so many beautiful mounts!"

No sooner had he finished speaking, Yan Lingji's eyelashes trembled violently, and she rolled on the ground, scanning her surroundings with vigilance.

"Good reflexes."

Hearing the strange voice, Yan Lingji pushed off with her feet, instantly leaping dozens of meters away to land on a tree branch, a ball of flame coalescing in her hand as she scanned the area with caution.

"As expected of a core member of the Baiyue assassin group."

As the words fell, a large mass of pitch-black liquid suddenly surged from her body, wrapping around her entirely.

Her clothes were devoured, replaced by a black bodysuit that perfectly outlined her tall, voluptuous, and curvaceous figure.

Furthermore, her usual black and red dress manifested over the exterior.

Venom Symbiosis state.

Base attribute multiplier increased, multiple additional abilities unlocked.

Yan Lingji felt awkward all over—it was as if she were being touched by countless hands at once, causing her extreme discomfort.

She reached out to tear at the Venom suit, but it felt like grabbing a mass of sticky goo; it wouldn't come off at all.

"What are you? Get off!"

"Stop struggling, it's useless."

She discovered with horror that she couldn't move her body.

"Is this the attitude you show your savior? How heartless."

"Savior?"

She recalled her state before losing consciousness—she had been on a mission when a meteor suddenly streaked across the sky, and she had looked up.

Then the surrounding environment changed, turning into an unfamiliar forest.

The terrifying shockwave of the meteor's impact had left her severely wounded and unconscious.

"You can call me Venom, or Jiang Ce. Now, I need a mount. As payment, I will provide you with power."

"A mount?" Yan Lingji's lips curled into a dangerous and alluring smile. "You want to be my new master?"

"With something this good, who wouldn't want to keep it as a collection?"

The black liquid transformed into tentacles, binding her tightly.

The alluring smile on her face froze instantly.

"You don't have the right to refuse."

Yan Lingji let out a soft huff.

The moment she was possessed by this thing, she knew her days ahead would likely be far from easy.

"Alright, take a good moment to feel the power I've given you."

Jiang Ce released full control of the Venom symbiote and shared its associated abilities with her.

Yan Lingji felt it clearly—

Her original internal energy, which had been at the early stage of the Innate Realm, suddenly swelled threefold.

It wasn't just the quantity of her internal energy; its capacity, quality, physical strength, reaction speed, and mental fortitude had all surged by three times.

Swish—

Venom-Yan Lingji transformed into a series of afterimages, instantly darting out several hundred meters.

With a casual punch, she blasted a boulder two zhang square into smithereens.

With a flick of her left hand, dozens of black threads pierced through a dozen trees in front of her; another flick, and the threads fluttered continuously.

The dozen trees ahead were instantly reduced to fragmented chunks.

Her right hand condensed a fireball of her Fire Charm Technique.

It was three times larger than her usual fireballs.

Not only that, but its temperature and density had also increased threefold.

She scorched another boulder four or five zhang high, and in an instant, it was reduced to molten lava.

Every ability was three times more powerful, and with most of them stacking, her overall combat prowess had increased by far more than just three times!

"This power... is wonderful."

"Let's go. We're going to deal with your former master right now."

"Master is truly overbearing." Yan Lingji's lips curled upward. "But he saved my life. If Master dares to make me kill my old master today, aren't you afraid I'll betray you in the future too?!"

"He saved you because he valued your abilities. That wasn't your fault; you were innocent to begin with. You've worked for him for so many years—whatever debt you owed has been paid in full. Now, I have saved your life—your life belongs to me."

"You have no other choice."

Although it was highly likely that Yan Lingji had been injured because of him, he hadn't been the one to do it.

Yan Lingji's lips quirked up. "Yes, Master."

This new master was truly overbearing.

"By the way," Jiang Ce suddenly noticed something amiss in Yan Lingji's memories. "When you saw the meteor, you were in a city in Baiyue, so how did you end up in this forest?"

"That is also a point of confusion for this concubine."

Just then, screams and the roars of beasts echoed from the distance.

The two exchanged a glance and rushed toward the sound.

Before them were two lizard-like creatures with thick limbs, menacing scales, and horned heads, chasing four armored men who were fleeing in a panic.

One lunged forward, swiping its claws to send two men flying, killing them on the spot.

The other opened its mouth to spew a fireball, burning the remaining two into balls of flame.

Not far away lay several mangled corpses, their blood still fresh.

"Are these... exotic beasts?" Yan Lingji frowned slightly.

"Unclear. But they aren't as strong as you. Kill them."

"Yes, Master."

Yan Lingji offered a bewitching smile and darted out.

The black liquid in her hand instantly transformed into a long sword.

Swish— A black light flashed.

The large lizard that had just been spewing fire suddenly froze, a line of blood appearing on its neck.

Immediately after, its head slid off, and blood gushed out.

"Indeed, not strong."

Yan Lingji flicked the blood off her blade. "Though the sharpness of this sword is comparable to the Ten Great Famous Swords."

"I can still evolve and grant you even greater power. Can those broken swords compare to me?" Jiang Ce dismissed the notion.

He was a newborn Venom; at his initial stage, he started with a threefold amplification, and he would only grow stronger.

However, Venom also had weaknesses—he feared fire, sonic waves, and high-voltage electricity.

But after copying Yan Lingji's abilities, he discovered—

He actually possessed 30% fire resistance and could even manipulate flames.

It seemed this was a gift from her fire-attribute constitution.

It seems other weaknesses can be resolved using similar methods.

Seeing its companion killed, the other lizard turned and spat a fireball toward Yan Lingji.

Yan Lingji manifested a black sword in her right hand, the blade instantly igniting with raging flames; with a single downward slash, the fireball was cleaved in two.

The momentum of the sword did not falter, and she took the opportunity to slice the monster in half as well.

"These exotic beasts are indeed not strong."

"Mm. However, I sense even stronger auras in the distance."

"Does Baiyue have things like this?"

Yan Lingji looked around, feeling that the vegetation and environment here were unlike anything she had ever seen before.

"No."

"Then we must investigate."

Jiang Ce extended several tentacles from Yan Lingji's chest, lengthening them until they touched the corpses on the ground, and began to extract their memories.

These people had only just died, so information could still be retrieved.

However, the moment the information flooded in, Jiang Ce's tentacles stiffened.

"This place is... the Douluo Continent?!"
