"Hey, you little punk, you dare use me as a thug?"
Seeing that Xiao Jin actually pushed him forward, Long Lin couldn't help but laugh and scold him. The former, seeing this, pouted and said with a slightly arrogant air:
"Before you left, the clan chief specifically asked you to protect me. If you're unwilling to fight him, then I'll have to do it myself."
Upon hearing this, Long Lin gave a helpless bitter smile. He then casually Gui Duo he was carrying, took a step forward, and as his expression turned serious, a terrifying aura far surpassing that of everyone present suddenly swept out from his body. At this moment, Heavenly Cloud Manor changed color, with gusts of wind and thunder surging, and even the air became much more humid. At this moment, the Yuan Zun experts in the sky all stared at the former with extremely solemn expressions. Such a powerful aura and pressure was probably something that even the Yuan Zun present, plus the Seven Heroes of the Luo Clan, would not be able to withstand. This showed just how powerful Long Lin was!
"Since you want people, then do as this little guy says. As long as you can defeat me, or crush me once, you can choose anyone here."
In the void, Long Lin's figure slowly moved to be level with Wu Du. His seemingly calm words revealed a sense of arrogance, which fully displayed the proud nature of the Dragon Clan.
However, upon hearing this, Wu Du's eye muscles twitched involuntarily. Such sarcastic words were undeniably disrespectful. But then again, he had just witnessed Long Lin casually toss the Gui Duo aside. In terms of strength, the Gui Duo was no less than him, and perhaps even slightly stronger. In a real fight, he might not be a match for the latter. Fortunately, against Long Lin, defeating him in one round would be enough.
"As a member of the Dragon Clan, your words must carry weight."
After a moment of contemplation, Wu Du suddenly had an idea. With the powerful pressure emanating from the Long Lin scale above his head, he said coldly.
"Heh, don't provoke me. People of the Dragon Clan always speak with great gusto. Forget about defeating me; if you can even take me one round, my words will stand."
Long Lin sneered, his right hand clenching in mid-air, condensing a Origin Qi from the heavens and earth into his palm. This technique astonished the other Origin Yuan Zun experts present. While they too could control unrefined power in the world without expending their own strength, they could not do it as easily as Long Lin, nor could they condense such a powerful energy. From this point of view alone, Long Lin's strength far surpassed theirs.
"This guy is probably no ordinary Yuan Zun!"
Seeing this, Wu Du's heart sank. He dared not be careless. As his Origin Qi surged wildly, streams of purplish-black Power of the Great Dao also condensed in the void around him.
" The Great Dao of Ten Thousand Poisons!"
The purplish-black poisonous mist rapidly condensed into strange tents around Wu Du. He hesitated for a moment as he looked at the several tents in front of him, then gritted his teeth, moved, and passed straight through one of them.
"Buzz!"
As his figure passed through the Great Dao Tent, his body seemed to be instantly coated with a layer of purplish-black poison. A terrifying aura immediately emanated from Wu Du's body, and at the same time, streams of poisonous gas, even more terrifying than ordinary poisonous mist, rapidly spread out. When the poisonous gas touched the Star Disk Grand Formation, the terrifying energy between the two was immediately and violently consumed. Under the corrosive influence of the poisonous gas, even the light on the Star Disk Grand Formation dimmed slightly. Looking at the city wall below, although it was protected by runes, under this deadly poison, a corner of it was still melted at a visible speed.
"Hiss... What a terrifying poison!"
Upon seeing this, the people in the city below couldn't help but change their expressions. This kind of poison gas was far too terrifying, actually able to melt even the city walls protected by runes. At this moment, Long Lin also frowned as he watched what was happening before him. With his powerful cultivation, although the poison gas could not easily get within ten feet of him, the terrifying nature of the poison still made him wary.
" The Great Dao of Ten Thousand Poisons? Legend has it that the founder of the Tribulation Crossing Sect mastered this Great Dao of Ten Thousand Poisons, possessing countless poisons all over his body, making him terrifyingly powerful, even Yuan Sheng expert couldn't do anything about it. However, there is a prerequisite for this Power of the Great Dao: the person who comprehends it must have Woeful Poison Body, otherwise they cannot withstand the suffering of these countless poisons. You are not Woeful Poison Body, so how could you possibly control the Great Dao of Ten Thousand Poisons?"
With Long Lin's keen eyesight, he could naturally see that Wu Du was not Woeful Poison Body. But if that was the case, how was he able to unleash the Great Dao of Ten Thousand Poisons?
"Hahaha, the Dragon Clan is indeed knowledgeable and worldly-wise, even understanding the Great Dao of Ten Thousand Poisons so well. You are right, I am not Woeful Poison Body, but Pseudo-Woeful Poison Body. One day, when I become a true Woeful Poison Body, I, Wu Du, will become the second Yi Shengdu!"
As the maniacal laughter subsided, four tents passed through Wu Du's body. By this moment, his body had turned a deep purplish-black, and even the hair on his body had withered and fallen off. His flesh was shrunken and sunken, making him look like a dried corpse. His eyes had also turned purplish-black, and his five fingers were thin and black, with sharp, flat nails covered in purplish-black poison gas, emitting a chilling aura.
In the blink of an eye, Wu Du seemed to have transformed into a monster. Staring at the Long Lin in front of him, all his emotions were thrown to the back of his mind. At this moment, Wu Du had only one thought in his mind: kill the Long Lin!
Looking at Wu Du, who had become neither human nor ghost, Long Lin couldn't help but feel a look of disdain. The power of the Great Dao of Ten Thousand Poisons lies in its ability to continuously add terrifying toxins to one's body. All the toxins flow into the body, condense, and then completely merge with the Origin Qi, unleashing a power several times stronger than usual.
However, because Wu Du's true form is not the Woeful Poison Body, this guy actually used his methods to condense the power of the Great Dao of Ten Thousand Poisons outside his body to enhance his Origin Qi. Although doing so can also achieve considerable results, judging from the latter's current appearance, it is clear that such methods will inevitably come at an extremely heavy price.
This Wu Du is practically digging his own grave!
