Liu Yan's Shock

"Not afraid of poison? A special constitution? Or something else?"

"Interesting!"

"..."

Watching Zhou Feng win with ease, some of the people observing below suddenly became interested.

Zhou Feng had actually completely ignored the poison from Myriad Poisons Peak. Could this be some kind of special constitution?

Even though Bitter Bamboo Peak's Demon Devouring Art was incredibly mysterious, it was absolutely impossible for it to completely ignore such potent poison.

Then there was only one explanation: a special constitution!

Special constitutions were possessed by only a very small number of people.

Among all living beings, there were always mutated individuals, and these mutated individuals were collectively known as special constitutions.

These special constitutions did not necessarily accelerate cultivation.

In fact, most of the time, they might not have any use at all. They could even become a burden instead.

Furthermore, special constitutions appeared entirely at random and were extremely rare.

But among these special constitutions was one called the Myriad Poison Body.

Those who possessed the Myriad Poison Body were naturally immune to poison and could cultivate poison arts without worrying about aftereffects or side effects.

This was also the constitution Myriad Poisons Peak had been searching for all along, because only someone with this constitution could possibly become a True Disciple of Myriad Poisons Peak.

They might even become the next peak master of Myriad Poisons Peak.

"I have to confirm it! Such a promising seedling can't be wasted!"

As the steward of Myriad Poisons Peak, Wei Guang quietly slipped over to Zhou Feng's side.

Zhou Feng, who had just won the match, suddenly felt every hair on his body stand on end.

"Who is it?"

The sense of danger came swiftly, and he immediately shifted to the side.

I've been poisoned?

Then he discovered that he had indeed been poisoned!

Immunity to Poisons had already begun expelling the poison from his body without him noticing.

Then, that sense of danger drifted away like a breeze.

"What a pity! Not a Myriad Poison Body!"

Wei Guang looked somewhat regretful.

Zhou Feng was not a Myriad Poison Body. When a true Myriad Poison Body was poisoned, it could not only ignore the poison outright,

but even devour the poison to strengthen itself, rather than expelling it from the body.

Clearly, this disciple from Bitter Bamboo Peak had some little secrets.

But if he was not a Myriad Poison Body, Wei Guang had no interest in him at all.

After all, poaching someone from Bitter Bamboo Peak came at far too great a cost.

To snatch someone from the hands of that old monster, the Grand Elder, one had to pay at least ten times the price.

Although Zhou Feng was a promising seedling, he already had a Demon Devouring Gu in his body.

Under such circumstances, bringing him into Myriad Poisons Peak would still cost too much.

So, after probing him a little, Wei Guang quietly slipped away.

But Zhou Feng frowned tightly.

"Someone just attacked me? And poisoned me?"

He felt that the attacker should have been at the Spirit Platform Realm.

Only someone at the Spirit Platform Realm could poison him without him sensing anything at all.

Too dangerous! This Three Gu Sect was simply far too dangerous!

Someone had actually poisoned him here at the Martial Arts Tournament.

"Not fast enough! My cultivation speed still isn't fast enough!"

Once again, Zhou Feng felt that his cultivation was not high enough, and that his cultivation speed was not fast enough.

Was the Ninth Level of Qi Condensation impressive?

He was still only an ordinary Inner Sect disciple.

He needed a faster cultivation speed!

The Demon Devouring Gu should be able to devour other Gu insects, right?

And with the level-two Gluttony Passive Skill, Zhou Feng could gain some additional spiritual energy and vital energy every time.

As long as Zhou Feng cast aside his misgivings and wildly devoured all kinds of spiritual items and Gu insects, his cultivation would surely soar at an incredible rate.

Before, he had said that he would throw caution to the wind and fully embrace the demonic path, but in truth, he had still been quite restrained.

In his daily cultivation, he still relied on the tedious method of absorbing spiritual energy.

After all, recklessly exploiting the Demon Devouring Art's nature and devouring things indiscriminately came with many side effects.

The mixed spiritual energy mentioned earlier was the most serious side effect.

Devouring all sorts of random things could easily cause conflicts in spiritual energy, leaving vital energy chaotic and scattered, unable to gather together.

It was practically a ticking time bomb.

It could explode at any time.

It was precisely for all these reasons that he had always harbored a trace of misgiving.

"I don't have enough spirit stones either! I need more spirit stones, then I can get more Passive Skills!"

What had just happened directly stirred Zhou Feng's desire to survive.

He had been too conservative!

Everything he had done before had been far too conservative.

With the Demon Devouring Gu, the Demon Devouring Art, and so many passives, he could afford to be far more aggressive.

"Number ninety-nine!"

Just as Zhou Feng's breathing grew increasingly rapid, it was once again his turn to take the stage.

This time, his opponent was a disciple from Five Poisons Peak.

This person was also wrapped up tightly, with barely any skin exposed.

What was rather frightening was his face, which was covered in uneven little pits.

Countless bumps covered his entire face, making it look as though his face had been washed with sulfuric acid.

It directly caused a degree of physical discomfort.

And this man seemed to have quite a reputation in the Inner Sect?

The moment he stepped into the center, many people immediately fell silent.

"Quick! Keep your voice down! That's Zheng Zhu! Don't let him notice you!"

"I heard he's extremely petty. Apparently, someone looked at him one time too many, and he was tortured alive for seven days!"

"Hiss~~ That terrifying?"

"Yeah! So keep your voice down..."

"..."

As they spoke, the surroundings grew quieter and quieter.

However, those who shut their mouths were merely ordinary Inner Sect disciples.

"Ugly as hell! He actually dares to come out during the day looking like that!"

"His looks aren't even one-tenth as good as that young man across from him!"

A voice suddenly fanned the flames under these circumstances, sounding especially piercing in the increasingly quiet surroundings.

Zhou Feng turned his head and discovered that it was Liu Yan, whom he had met before.

Liu Yan was still as gorgeous and captivating as ever. Her fair skin even reflected white light beneath the sun.

When she saw him turn around, Liu Yan even tossed him a flirtatious glance.

That slightly seductive gesture looked utterly natural on Liu Yan.

It made the hearts of quite a few nearby people beat faster.

Ninth Level of Qi Condensation? What a fast rate! Even with Bitter Bamboo Peak's Demon Devouring Gu, this speed shouldn't be normal, should it?

What Zhou Feng did not know was that Liu Yan was deeply shocked at this moment.

Not long ago, Liu Yan had encountered him.

Back then, Zhou Feng had still been guarding the entrance. It seemed that he had not even reached Qi Gathering yet?

How had he reached the Ninth Level of Qi Condensation in the blink of an eye?

For that brief moment, Liu Yan had even thought she had mistaken him for someone else.

Only after confirming it several times did Liu Yan become certain that Zhou Feng had truly reached the Ninth Level of Qi Condensation in such a short time.

Liu Yan knew a little about Bitter Bamboo Peak's Demon Devouring Gu.

Because Demon Devouring Gu could devour one another, raising one's cultivation was much easier than at the other peaks.

But to jump directly to the Ninth Level of Qi Condensation, one would need to kill at least someone at the Ninth Level of Qi Condensation.

How had Zhou Feng done it? Back then, Liu Yan had felt that she could crush Zhou Feng to death with one hand.

Yet now, she could sense a faint trace of danger from Zhou Feng.

Compared to those others who did not know the details, Liu Yan understood what Zhou Feng's rate of advancement meant.
