Five Poisons True Scripture

Five Poisons True Scripture

"Master, what exactly does this heavy snow signify?" Lin Yu sat cross-legged on the ground and asked in confusion. Poison Slayer shook his head, not intending to tell him yet, as heaven and earth blended into a single color.

A stream of purple gas appeared in Poison Slayer's hand. Lin Yu could see nothing now, but his subconscious senses told him that his master was about to seal something into his bloodline. Yet he truly could not say what that power was.

Just as he was wildly guessing what it might be, a row of words appeared in his mind. It was a spiritual space, containing immensely powerful spiritual force: the Five Poisons True Scripture. Only a Poison Body could learn it; only heavy snow could withstand it; only powerful spiritual force could cultivate it.

The physical body, bloodline, and spiritual force required for the Five Poisons True Scripture to choose a master were all exceptionally demanding. Lin Yu basically met all those conditions, but Poison Slayer still did not know how strong his spiritual force was. Since this blizzard had already arrived, he had no reason to wait any longer.

In an instant, pain appeared on Lin Yu's face. Poison Slayer clasped his hands tightly behind his back, his heart filled with unease. He only hoped this disciple could endure it; otherwise, he truly would bear a grave sin.

Within the freezing currents, the beads of sweat Lin Yu shed turned into icicles one drop at a time. His face seemed to be sliced apart by knives, cut open inch by inch. Even so, he persisted. The words of the Poison Scripture evolved and engraved themselves within his mind.

The chill kept changing, and his sensations grew stronger. Three days passed. A full three days. At this moment, he sat there like an ice sculpture. Poison Slayer still had not moved. Though even his feet had been frozen by the cold, he remained motionless.

"Three days of heavy snow, and it still hasn't stopped. How many more days will it keep falling?" Poison Slayer had never imagined that the blizzard before him would last this long.

At that moment, a trace of blood color appeared on Lin Yu's ice-bound body. No one knew what would happen next, so Poison Slayer did not make any major move. He only felt that this disciple possessed far too many secrets. Perhaps he had picked up a bargain disciple after all. No matter what, this gamble had paid off.

Within Lin Yu's mind, his blood energy was also extraordinarily dense. At this time, it seemed that the blood energy had suppressed some of the poisonous energy within the Poison Scripture. Poison Slayer, standing nearby, was somewhat relieved. As for how many more days the snow would rage, that was not for him to decide. Lin Yu still needed this snow.

That streak of blood-red appearing between heaven and earth completely exceeded Poison Slayer's expectations. He had originally thought the blood energy was merely protecting Lin Yu, but he had not expected it to be fighting the heavens, battling this blizzard.

He had been deep in thought when he suddenly came to his senses. The snow had begun to lessen gradually. This was already the fifth day. There was still no change in him; he was simply as he had always been. After seeing this, Poison Slayer stood quietly beside Lin Yu and waited.

In an instant, the sound of shattering ice rang out. A shard of ice sliced directly across Poison Slayer's face, and before he could guard against it, a thread of blood flowed down his cheek. The instant Lin Yu opened his eyes, the blood energy filling them vanished as well.

Lin Yu looked at the trace of blood on Poison Slayer's face and asked doubtfully, "Master, what happened to the blood on your face?" Poison Slayer had yet to recover from what had just happened when Lin Yu's call jolted him awake. He waved his hand and brushed the matter aside.

"What insights did you gain this time? Tell me." Lin Yu smiled and gathered a stream of spiritual energy. At a glance, it was clear that Lin Yu's strength had begun to rise. Yet Poison Slayer could not sense even a trace of poisonous energy from him. What was going on? He still did not know.

"I gained quite a few insights this time. Even the meridians in my body have expanded by more than double." Poison Slayer nodded. That was how it should have been.

He quickly sighed again and said, "You should not break through too quickly yet. The Body Refining Stage is a crucial period for a cultivator, so suppress your realm whenever you can!" Lin Yu knew his master would not harm him, so he nodded. Suppressing one's realm while refining the body sounded simple, but in truth, it was no easy task.

"Oh, right. How much of the Five Poisons True Scripture did you memorize?" Scriptures were the most crucial thing for a cultivator, and the Five Poisons True Scripture was even more miraculous. If one's divine sense was not strong enough, there would be very little one could comprehend.

However, Poison Slayer had a feeling that the blood energy had also helped Lin Yu comprehend quite a lot.

"Mm, about half of it! If I tried to cram the entire scripture into my head, it would explode." Poison Slayer nodded. He should have expected it. Having half the scripture imprinted in one's mind was already impressive. As for whether it could be completed later, that would depend on fate.

Back then, when he obtained this scripture, he had directly carved it into his spiritual force. Yet what he comprehended had not been nearly as much as Lin Yu. He finally understood just how heaven-defying this disciple of his was.

"Alright. Your talent truly is excellent. Back then, I did not even learn half as much as you did. Even after a hundred years, I only learned half of it. As for this scripture, there is nothing I can teach you. You must rely entirely on your own comprehension." Poison Slayer had said all there was to say.

Honestly, the disciple he had taken in truly possessed outstanding talent. Even he felt a trace of jealousy. Still, no matter what, Lin Yu had already become his disciple.

"Right, Master. Although the Five Poisons True Scripture has left clear marks in my mind, comprehending all of it is truly difficult. Outsiders should not be able to discover it, right?"

"Ah, that is indeed a problem. But you can rest assured about that. With the methods of your Four Seas and Eight Wastelands, no one can use Soul Search to probe the secrets in your mind."

Hearing Poison Slayer's reply, Lin Yu nodded. The thing he had feared most had already been resolved, so he was not worried about much else.

"Alright, alright. Now that you have the Poison Scripture, the most important thing is to quickly finish cultivating your Poison Body. Having obtained the Poison Scripture, you should understand the importance of the Poison Body now."

Previously, Lin Yu truly had not understood why his master had made him cultivate a Poison Body. Now, he understood completely. Without a powerful Poison Body, there was no way to cultivate the Five Poisons True Scripture, let alone increase one's cultivation.

"Yes, yes, my master is tall and mighty. I'll go cultivate my Poison Body right away." Hearing his disciple's empty flattery, Poison Slayer could not resist kicking him before saying, "Get lost and cultivate. Stop spouting such slick-tongued nonsense." Hearing Poison Slayer's words, Lin Yu vanished in a puff of smoke...
