"Damn it! Damn it, damn it! Where did this thing come from!?"

The Heavenly Poison Scorpion Dragon Beast is struggling against the eerie silver Lizardman.

This Lizardman was incredibly strong, easily withstanding his attacks. Every punch and kick carried terrifying power capable of tearing the ground apart. The Heavenly Poison Scorpion Dragon Beast's subordinates were completely useless against this guy; they were basically injured just by grazing him, and a solid hit could cost them half their lives.

Therefore, the Heavenly Poison Scorpion Dragon Beast had no choice but to go up there himself; there was no other way, since the strange Lizardman's target was clearly him.

At first, he also thought that this thing might be some kind of alien beast king that came to cause trouble, but after carefully sensing it, he found that this thing was not alive at all!

This thing is just a puppet!

This means something terrifying: someone capable of creating such a puppet has his eye on him.

Boom!!

The Lizard Earth Demon Puppet raised its slender arm and punched empty air. Earth and rocks flew everywhere, cracks appeared, and shockwaves spread violently, making the Heavenly Poison Scorpion Dragon Beast's expression incredibly painful.

Damn it—as a member of the Dragon Clan, my physique is already terrifying enough compared to ordinary Magic Beasts, this is fucking...

What is that? Is this Physical Body for real?

What level of Magic Beast was this lizard when it was alive!?

"Damn it, die!"

The Heavenly Poison Scorpion Dragon Beast grew somewhat ferocious, its long, crimson Scorpion Tail lashing out as it lunged towards the Lizard Earth Demon Puppet's chest.

Pfft

Although the Earth Demon Puppet's Physical Body was incredibly tough, the Heavenly Poison Scorpion Dragon Beast's tail attack was indeed terrifying, piercing a hole in the Lizardman's chest, and then injecting corrosive venom into it as if it didn't care about its own life.

"Your outer shell is so tough, I just don't believe... your insides are just as tough!"

The Heavenly Poison Scorpion Dragon Beast sneered, its eyes blazing with fury as it stared at the Lizardman Earth Demon Puppet.

A puppet is, after all, just a puppet. The interior of the Earth Demon Puppet is indeed not as hard as the exterior, and its movements became stiff after a short while.

"Phew... I knew it! It's just a mere puppet; it's no match for me at all."

The young man, transformed from the Heavenly Poison Scorpion Dragon Beast, finally breathed a sigh of relief, wiping the cold sweat from his forehead, completely forgetting that he had just been chased and beaten like a dog by this puppet.

"Damn it, I better not find out who threw this puppet here, or I'll tear it apart inch by inch!"

A voice came from over.

Two women, who had somehow ended up standing on the ravaged battlefield, were looking at the panting Heavenly Poison Scorpion Dragon Beast with identical expressions.

66

Who are you people!?

The Heavenly Poison Scorpion Dragon Beast immediately hissed, re-assuming a fighting stance and warily watching Xiao Yi Xian and Zi Yan.

Their appearance here at this time... could they be puppets released by these two women!?

Judging from their auras, they were all incredibly strong... especially the purple-haired woman, who gave me a mysterious yet undeniably dangerous feeling...!

"Xiao Yi Xian, why don't you examine this puppet first? I'll take care of this one!"

Zi Yan's smile was slightly ferocious, and her knuckles cracked loudly as she squeezed them.

The Heavenly Poison Scorpion Dragon Beast seemed to want to curse, but the aura emanating from this person made it both surprised and uncertain.

Moreover, his current condition is indeed very bad... That stupid puppet was indeed very strong, consuming a lot of his Dou Qi, and now he can't possibly recover.

Then... escape?

BOOM!!

Zi Yan raised her fists and slammed them into empty space, creating a mysterious sensation in the air.

"This is, uh, this is probably, a kind of Dou Technique! I've sealed off the surrounding space with this Dou Technique, you can't escape now!"

Zi Yan grinned and raised her fist.

The Heavenly Poison Scorpion Dragon Beast tried to sense the power of space, and its expression turned ugly.

The woman is right, the space has been sealed off...!

"So, who exactly are you people?! Even if you're going to kill me, you have to give me a reason!"

Fighting two opponents at once is difficult enough, let alone now that the Heavenly Poison Scorpion Dragon Beast has already been weakened, with at least half of its strength gone, and its subordinate Magic Beasts either dead or fled.

The Heavenly Poison Scorpion Dragon Beast definitely didn't want to die.

"Your strength is quite good, you should be at the level of a Seven-Star Dou Zong to Eight-Star Dou Zong. Even the Demon Puppet created by Bu Xiao is no match for you. Among Seventh-Rank Magical Beasts, you are considered top-tier."

"However, we didn't come here to kill you."

Xiao Yi Xian pulled the toxins out of the Earth Demon Puppet's body and poured them into a bottle. Then she walked to Zi Yan's side and looked at the Heavenly Poison Scorpion Dragon Beast side by side, giving the Seventh-Rank Magical Beast a chilling feeling.

What do you want?

Hearing that they weren't there to kill him, the Heavenly Poison Scorpion Dragon Beast subconsciously breathed a sigh of relief, but outwardly remained vigilant.

"If you're willing to stay here obediently, that would be best, so we don't have to beat you up and tie you up."

"You Heavenly Poison Scorpion Dragon Beast stared at Xiao Yi Xian with a ferocious expression."

"Do you really think I'm just going to sit here and wait to be slaughtered? We Scorpion Dragon Tribe are..."

He seemed to want to put up a fight.

At least don't let yourself be controlled by others without any dignity.

Xiao Yi Xian and Zi Yan exchanged a glance.

"It seems he doesn't care about appearances."

"Then let's not give him any face."

The two people were talking very quickly.

Heavenly Poison Scorpion Dragon Beast:???

Before he could react, Xiao Yi Xian and Zi Yan rushed over together.

He seemed to want to say something more.

But Zi Yan's fist had already landed.

Boom!!

Sun Buxiao did not use Dou Qi or Soul Power; he simply manipulated the flames.

"What the hell is that flame?! It looks poisonous!"

Bing Xuan warily distanced himself from Sun Buxiao, extinguishing the flames burning on his sleeve with his Dou Qi, but felt something was wrong within his body.

When I pulled up the sleeve, I saw that the skin was swollen and the flesh underneath had begun to rot.

He could clearly feel that this was not a burn at all!

The horrifying sight sent chills down his spine and made his soul tremble. He quickly conjured an ice blade in his other hand and used it to slice away the surrounding rotting flesh. At the same time, he raised his head and let out a loud shout.

"Don't touch this flame! It's highly Deadly Poison, and our Poison-Avoiding Pills are useless— Elders Bing Yuan!!"

Before Bing Xuan could even raise his head, he witnessed a scene that horrified him.

Elders Bing Yuan, whose Dou Qi cultivation reached the level of a Six-Star Dou Zong, was already covered in these strange gray- Pink flames. He couldn't even let out a scream, and didn't even have a chance to take out the Pills from his Storage Ring before he...

It collapsed.

It collapsed literally.

Pieces of flesh and blood fell from the body, leaving only a stark white skeleton standing in place. Soon, the skeleton...

Part of it was also burned away by the flames, which seemed to be a persistent, malignant infection, and then the bones were trampled on as well.

In less than twenty seconds, a Six-Star Dou Zong was burned alive by the flames.

"Hmm, as expected of the flame that has been feeding me with toxins all along, it's much more poisonous than Xiao Yi Xian's. It can kill without relying on firepower or Heart Flame. Not bad, not bad."

Sun Buxiao lowered his head and picked up the Storage Ring from the ground, revealing a very satisfied expression.

For Elders Bing Yuan, whose name Bing Xuan wouldn't have known at all if Bingxuan hadn't called out to him, Sun Buxiao only used the [poison] aspect of the Netherworld Heart-Burning Flame, without utilizing the [heat] characteristic of the Heavenly Flames or the [Heart Flame] characteristic of the Fallen Heart Flame.

Even so, it's enough to kill a Six-Star Dou Zong.

"So it seems that if you can make it onto the Heavenly Flame Ranking, you might actually be able to rank in the top ten?"

Sun Buxiao at the grayish -Pink Butterflies perched on the back of his hand, his voice carrying a relaxed tone, yet a calmness that sent chills down Bing Xuan's spine.

What's wrong with this guy!?

Is the full version of the Woeful Poison Body really that terrifying?

Moreover, this flame... its color and characteristics don't match any of the Heavenly Flames on the Heavenly Flame Ranking!

No, we have to escape—we have to escape!

I'm no match for this guy, I'm absolutely no match for him!

Bing Yuan is dead, Bing Fu is quite far from the entrance and exit of Fallen God Ravine, which can help buy me time. I have to escape—I have to escape!

I don't want to die here!

Thinking of this, Elder Bing Xuan, a highly respected Elders in the Ice River Valley, endured the pain in his arm and suddenly burst into a burst of speed, rushing towards the entrance and exit of the Fallen God Ravine.

Elders Bing Xuan!!

The last remaining Elders of the Ice River Valley was shocked and stared in disbelief at the fleeing Bing Xuan.

But Bing Xuan ignored all of this and only focused on running away.

Sun Buxiao turned his head and glanced at the fleeing Bing Xuan with a mocking look, but did not stop him. He simply raised one hand and manipulated a strange emotional power to enter the soul of the Bing Fu.

"Ugh, fear."

I was so terrified that I wanted to hug myself until I died.

Anger.

So angry that he wanted to tear his own flesh and blood apart.

Suppressed.

The tension was so intense that someone blurted out, "Uh, it's somewhat affecting the city's appearance."

Seeing Bing Fu's actions, Sun Dog's expression turned disgusted.

Damn it, thank goodness Xiao Yi Xian and Zi Yan are somewhere else now, otherwise wouldn't they have been offended?

It seems I can't suppress my emotions anymore when I try to express them in the future.

"You might as well just die already."

After making a vomiting motion, Sun Buxiao controlled his Heart Flame to ignite completely. The Bing Fu let out a wail and was quickly burned to ashes, leaving not even bone fragments.

The two Storage Rings contained a considerable amount of resources, plus two bottles of Death Solution...

Sun Buxiao used his own soul to compress and dilute the solution, creating four portions of the Death Solution.

"Anyway, the strength is sufficient. It shouldn't be a problem to hand it in as a fake account. Those idiots from the Hall of Souls won't recognize it."

Shrugging, Sun Buxiao put away all the valuables and glanced in the direction Bing Xuan had fled. The other party had already left Fallen God Ravine and had disappeared somewhere.

"Well then, I'll have to ask you to deliver this message for me... I'm just waiting for those idiots from Ice River Valley to come knocking on my door."

"After all, I'd like to experience firsthand what a true Acquired Calamity Poison Body looks like. Besides, I've never killed a true Dou Zun expert before, so using Ice Venerable as a guinea pig would be a good starting point."

Although Sun Buxiao's Woeful Poison Body is also Acquired Calamity Poison Body, everyone who sees him has to say "Holy crap!"

Having been afflicted with the Netherworld Poison Flame for years, which has now transformed into the Netherworld Heart-Burning Flame, exchanging toxins with each other, and having developed techniques such as Poison-Pressure Body Tempering, Medicinal-Toxin Conversion, Sun Buxiao's Woeful Poison Body has reached an extremely high level of mastery, awaiting further development.

Xiao Yi Xian's true Innate Calamity Poison Body is only on par with Sun Buxiao.

"Hmm, I wonder how things are going on their end."

Sun Buxiao spread his wings and quickly rushed towards the two of them.

Then he saw the exhausted Heavenly Poison Scorpion Dragon Beast.

Somehow, this guy had reverted to his Magic Beast form, lying on his back with a pool of blood at the corner of his mouth, and he seemed unconscious.

"So, what faction do you belong to?"

Xiao Yi Xian took the initiative to come over, looked Sun Buxiao up and down with concern, and nodded with satisfaction after confirming that Sun Buxiao was not injured.

Come to think of it, a few Dou Zong cultivators, how could they possibly injure Bu Xiao?

"The people from Ice River Valley, one of the Three Valleys, claimed this place as theirs. I killed two of them and let the last one escape so he could go back and report."

Sun Buxiao at his Earth Demon Puppet.

Is there a malfunction?

He took the initiative to go over and inspect it.

"Report a message? You don't mean to..."

Xiao Yi Xian frowned.

"Don't worry, I roughly understand the Ice River Valley's situation. They don't have any Half-Saints, let alone Dou Sheng. Their strongest is just a Five-Star Dou Zun Battle Venerable, Ice Venerable. I don't know where they get the nerve to say they're sworn enemies with Burning Flame Valley, which has Dou Sheng."

"Their valley master, the Ice Venerable, has an acquired Woeful Poison Body. I don't know how he developed it. I plan to capture him and study him, and also see what happens after Dou Zun dies."

He pointed to his bowl.

"Is that so? If you're confident, then there's no problem."

Xiao Yi Xian has always unconditionally supported Sun Buxiao's actions.

"Um."

Sun Buxiao took out some metal and other materials from his Storage Ring, made a hole in the Earth Demon Puppet's chest, stuffed them in, and then lit a fire to fuse the materials with the Earth Demon Puppet, thus completing the repair.

So what about the rest...?

"Hmm, it feels a bit stronger than the one we faced before."

The Heavenly Poison Scorpion Dragon Beast that he, Xiao Yi Xian, and Hai Bodong killed before was also a seventh-tier individual, but that one was only about two or three Dou Zong in strength. This one... must be at least seven or eight stars.

"You two, move aside a bit. I'm going to start interrogating this guy."

Sun Buxiao channeled the dragon blood within his body, drawing out the dragon's might, and then gestured for Zi Yan and Xiao Yi Xian to retreat.

Snap! Snap!

"Ah! Ah!"

The Heavenly Poison Scorpion Dragon Beast, jolted awake by two slaps, jumped up in a rage.

"Who!? Who the hell is it!?"

But then he felt an aura of authority that gave him goosebumps.

Looking up, I saw a young man whose appearance was as pleasant as a spring breeze.

But the feeling he exudes...

The Heavenly Poison Scorpion Dragon Beast glanced at Xiao Yi Xian and Zi Yan, who were standing far behind, and then looked at the man in front of it.

"You, you are..."

Its body had unconsciously prostrated itself on the ground, as if to submit.

Although this aura was somewhat mixed,...

Without a doubt, without a doubt.

The blood of the Ancient Void Dragon within the Heavenly Poison Scorpion Dragon Beast reminded him to kneel, to bow, to submit to this bloodline, to submit to this oppressive aura.

Therefore, its voice became very cautious.

"This is not my intimidation; I merely brought a message."

Sun Buxiao looked down at the Scorpion Tail dragon crawling in front of him. Because of the backlight, his face was shrouded in shadow, making it impossible for the Heavenly Poison Scorpion Dragon Beast to see his expression.

"Message, news?"

The Heavenly Poison Scorpion Dragon Beast looked somewhat bewildered.

"You must be a descendant of the Scorpion Dragon Tribe, then do you know—where the Scorpion Dragon Tribe currently inhabits?"

Sun Buxiao asked directly.

"... Who exactly are you? I naturally know the habitat of the Scorpion Dragon Tribe, but you...?"

The Heavenly Poison Scorpion Dragon Beast instinctively became alert.

"This matter is of great importance, and it is related to the true owner of this aura. You should know who the owner of this aura is."

It is - Ancient Void Dragon.

Without a doubt, Ancient Void Dragon.

The master of the Scorpion Dragon Tribe, the ancestor of the Scorpion Dragon Tribe.

The Scorpion Dragon Tribe is the offspring of the Ancient Void Dragon and a scorpion-like Magic Beast. The scorpion was just an ordinary Magic Beast, but the Scorpion Dragons, as their offspring, could easily start at the Tier Six and reach the Eighth Rank. Once they reached adulthood, they were equivalent to a powerful Dou Emperor, and with a little more growth, they became Dou Zong. As they aged, they became Dou Zun.

One can imagine how powerful the bloodline of the Ancient Void Dragon is.

The soul pressure mixed with the dragon's might made the Heavenly Poison Scorpion Dragon Beast unable to raise its head, or even have the thought of resisting.

"May I have your name?"

Looking at the silent Heavenly Poison Scorpion Dragon Beast, Sun Buxiao asked a question.

"Answer or die."

"You're not the only Heavenly Poison Scorpion Dragon Beast in Central Plains. You know how to answer that."

First courtesy, then force Sun Buxiao has already been polite; now it's time for threats.

"I... I'm called Ya Ren! I'm called Ya Ren..."

"I... I know where the Scorpion Dragon Tribe lives! Don't kill me! Don't kill me!"

The Heavenly Poison Scorpion Dragon Beast let out a terrified howl.

Sun Buxiao turned around and glanced at Xiao Yi Xian and Zi Yan, then smiled.

Plan Complete. jpg

"Sigh... We haven't found any trace of him this year either."

Above the Heavenly Star Mountain Range, a young-looking figure sighed sadly.

Looking at the Sect in the distance, he felt a deep sense of sorrow.

Yao Chen... where did you go?

If you died, why didn't you leave any trace?

If you are alive... then why have you disappeared without a trace?
