Putting a "Golden Hoop" on the Woeful Poison Body
Several months passed in the blink of an eye. At the place where Xiao Yi Xian was in seclusion, a thick poisonous fog suddenly spread and continued to expand in all directions.
However, after spreading to a certain extent, these toxic fumes could no longer diffuse outwards, as if they were shrouded by an invisible barrier.
No matter how much the poisonous fog attacked, it could not spread outward even a fraction of a second.
Soon after, the poisonous mist regrouped and was absorbed into Xiao Yi Xian's body, helping her stabilize her Dou Emperor realm.
"Qin Yu! Hmm..."
Xiao Yi Xian had just broken through to the Dou Huang Realm, got up, wanting to share her joy with Qin Yu, but suddenly felt a strong suppressive force.
The Poison Dou Qi within her body almost ceased to circulate under this suppressive force.
"Don't worry, this is a seal I set up. I'll give the Woeful Poison Body a good beating later."
Qin Yu's figure suddenly appeared, soothing Xiao Yi Xian's doubts.
Over the course of several months, Qin Yu experimented and devised numerous sealing techniques.
To ensure absolute safety when dealing with the Woeful Poison Body, Qin Yu set up an Formation here after careful consideration.
There are quite a few Formation on the Dou Qi Continent, but no one has specifically studied them.
Otherwise, Qin Yu felt that there would definitely be another profession for Formation on the continent.
Rogue cultivators generally don't have access to such formations, and even if powerful forces have Formation passed down through generations, they mostly just keep using them without many people bothering to study them.
Studying Formation is less important than improving one's cultivation level.
With cultivation improved, why bother with Formation? Just unleash your full power and send bricks flying!
Moreover, setting up an array, like alchemy, requires many materials.
Qin Yu set up the weakening Formation here mainly relying on his Qilin Bloodline, but the other materials were still found by Yun Yun and Zi Yan.
"Alright, then, let me consolidate my cultivation a bit more."
Qin Yu nodded, and with a wave of his hand, he reduced the suppressive force of the Formation, leaving only the barrier intact.
To be honest, after several months of research, Qin Yu found that Formation were actually quite interesting.
It's a pity that most of the items in the Jia Nan Academy's collection are sealing Formation.
There are none of them, unlike the Nine Heavens Lightning Prison Formation of the Wind Lightning Pavilion or the Qianlong Xuanming Formation of the Ice River Valley, which are highly offensive.
If I have the chance, it would be good to get some to study.
"I'm ready, come on."
After Xiao Yi Xian stabilized her breathing, Qin Yu activated the Formation again to suppress her, weakening the Poison Dou Qi within Xiao Yi Xian body by nearly 90%.
The process of putting on the shackles is not complicated; in layman's terms, it's just...
Pressing down on the head of the Woeful Poison Body, they placed Golden Hoop on it, forged from a Heavenly Flames and the Qilin Power, with maximum deformation limit.
Even after the Golden Hoop is on, the Woeful Poison Body can still grow by absorbing toxins and remain restless.
But with this Golden Hoop headband on its head, no matter how much it tries to cause trouble, it can never make a big splash.
"Hmm... hmm? That's it?"
Xiao Yi Xian kept her eyes tightly closed, fully prepared to endure all kinds of pain.
But not long after, Qin Yu patted her on the back and told her that she was ready.
"Why don't I feel anything?"
"... What you're saying sounds really strange."
Xiao Yi Xian was stunned for a moment, not quite understanding what Qin Yu meant.
"You... sigh..."
"You're making things even weirder!"
Just as the two were laughing at each other, three figures suddenly swept across the horizon.
"That's... Sister Yun Yun, right?"
Qin Yu and Xiao Yi Xian exchanged a glance, said nothing more, and set off at the same time to chase after the three figures that had gone.
After chasing for only a few miles, Qin Yu could see the situation ahead clearly, and the figure at the front was indeed Yun Yun.
The two figures behind her followed not far behind, one on the left and one on the Yun Yun, but always kept a distance from her.
Judging from their auras, the two people behind Yun Yun were a Six-Star Dou Emperor and a Nine-Star Dou Emperor, just like Yun Yun.
However, both of them were now injured.
The gaunt man had a deep, bone-revealing sword wound on his left shoulder, and blood had soaked half of his robe.
Another red-haired old man also had a long, shallow scratch on his chest, which was still quite a sight.
Despite being the one in pursuit, the target turned the tables and slashed several times...
Wait, where's Zi Yan?
Suddenly, Qin Yu realized that something was wrong.
Why isn't Zi Yan with Yun Yun?
Just then, Yun Yun in front of them suddenly stopped.
She slowly turned around, her long sword pointing diagonally at the ground, a half-smile on her face.
The two people behind him were startled almost simultaneously and instinctively stopped in their tracks.
"What? You're not running away anymore? You're finally planning to fight us head-on?"
The speaker was a Six-Star Dou Emperor.
Although he was shouting fiercely, his hand gripping the knife tightened noticeably, clearly still shaken by Yun Yun's counterattacks along the way.
"Fang Yan, Xie Zhen, it's really kind of you two to have chased me for so long."
The other red-haired old man remained silent, but his eyes scanned the surroundings warily.
Before he could even sense his surroundings, a dark red light suddenly attacked the two of them without warning.
A suffocating heat swept through the gap between the two, scorching the air and leaving a distorted mark.
At the last second, the two of them simultaneously scattered to the sides, the flames almost grazing past their bodies.
"Who?!"
The red-haired old man suddenly turned his head, his gaze locking onto the direction from which the flames were coming.
But in that instant of distraction, Yun Yun's figure approached like a ghost, her long sword, imbued with fierce Wind-Attribute Battle Qi, aimed straight at his throat.
The old man reacted quickly, his fighting Dou Qi suddenly surging as he dodged the attack.
Meanwhile, before the gaunt man could return to help, he was met head-on by a deep purple handprint.
The handprint had an eerie purplish-black sheen on its surface. In his haste, the man could only cross his arms to protect himself and take the blow head-on.
"Puff--"
A mouthful of black blood spurted from his mouth, and he plummeted straight down from the sky, crashing to the ground.
"Fourth brother!"
After regaining his balance, the red-haired old man turned to look in the direction where the man had fallen, his mind reeling.
A burly young man, surrounded by lingering dark red flames, approached Yun Yun, his aura as Nine-Star Dou Emperor spreading out without any concealment.
Behind the young man was a young woman dressed in purple, with a cultivation level of approximately One-Star Dou Emperor.
But the power of that palm strike just now was clearly not something an ordinary One-Star Dou Emperor could unleash.
The old man's expression changed completely.
One Yun Yun was already enough of a headache for him, and now two more Dou Emperor have appeared, one of whom is also Nine-Star?
He licked his chapped lips, his gaze sweeping back and forth between Qin Yu and Yun Yun, a layer of cold sweat breaking out on his forehead.
"Damn it... you bitch, you did this on purpose?!"
