Chapter 523: Poison Dagger
Yuan Ming retracted his gaze and looked at the thunder hammer in his hand with a look of joy.
The effect of this thunder gathering technique was so good. He was just a beginner, but he had increased the attack power of the thunder hammer by about 30% or 40%. If he could master this technique thoroughly, the power of the thunder hammer would be greatly improved.
In fact, although the thunder attribute skills are powerful, the power of thunder and lightning is unstable and easy to dissipate and lose, so that the power cannot be concentrated. The thunder gathering technique can cleverly reduce the power loss during the casting process and concentrate these scattered powers in one place to achieve twice the result with half the effort.
Lei He and Yan Xiang walked out of the formation. Let alone Lei He with an excited face, even Yan Xiang had a flash of relaxation in his eyes.
"Friend Yuan, this time it's all thanks to - Yan Xiang, what are you doing!" Lei He looked at Yuan Ming and was about to praise him, but suddenly found that Yan Xiang beside him raised his right hand slightly, and a black light went straight to Yuan Ming.
Lei He's face was furious, and he shot out a purple lightning, trying to stop the black light, but it was a little late.
Yuan Ming, who had been prepared for this, did not need his help. He raised the thunder hammer in his hand, and another silver lightning appeared, striking the black light.
Surprisingly, with a crisp "pop" sound, the black light hit by the silver lightning shook and fell to the ground, revealing its true appearance, a black dagger.
Yuan Ming frowned. Yan Xiang, as a Yuanying cultivator, should not be so powerless even if it was just a secret attack.
"Why, do you all think that Yan is the kind of villain who will turn against you after receiving a favor?" Yan Xiang showed a sneer at the corner of his mouth.
"Junior dare not, but what is the meaning of Senior Yan Xiang's move?" Yuan Ming asked lightly.
Yan Xiang did not answer Yuan Ming, but turned to look at Lei He: "Lei He, I will give you this face today. On this Sanxian Island, I can not pursue the matter of the ring. But if you still want to stop me after leaving Sanxian Island, don't blame me for turning my face against you."
Lei He smiled bitterly: "Daoyou Yan Xiang, why are you doing this?"
"No need to say more, the Immortal Fruit Conference has been held for so many times, and as a first-class island, it has fallen out of the top 16. My Yehuo Island is the first one. If I don't get this face back, I can't explain to everyone on Yehuo Island!"
Yan Xiang said, and looked at To Yuan Ming: "Boy, your spiritual power is extremely strong, not inferior to that of a Yuanying stage cultivator. Now you have learned the thunder gathering technique of Hongyu Island, plus the thunder hammer and the thunder-winged bird, your combat power is comparable to that of a Yuanying stage cultivator. After leaving Sanxian Island, I will give you one stick of incense. Whether you are begging for help or running for your life, I will not interfere. But after one stick of incense, I will personally take your life."
"Since Senior Yan Xiang is determined to investigate the matter of the arena, Yuan will accompany you." Yuan Ming said slowly without getting annoyed.
"How brave! Lei He taught you the art of gathering thunder, and Yan will not be stingy. Even if the black dagger is a reward for helping me escape, it is a treasure placed here, not made by me. If you are worried, you can let Lei He be a witness. If you still don't want it, just leave it here." Yan Xiang waved his hand, walked straight past Yuan Ming, entered the secret room, and checked the teleportation array.
"Yan Xiang did not lie. This thing is indeed a chance to hide here. According to my speculation, it may be left here by the predecessors as a reward for discovering this place. It was originally placed in the center of the formation. When we took it down, the formation was triggered. Yan Xiang did not leave any tricks on it, so you can keep it." Lei He picked up the dagger on the ground, explored it with his spiritual sense, and then handed it over.
Yuan Ming took the black dagger, used his spiritual sense to explore it, and a strange color flashed across his face.
This black dagger turned out to be a poisonous weapon. The poison contained in it was so toxic that it could easily corrode and dissolve his mana.
Yuan Ming hurriedly increased his mana and integrated the power of the Cold Moon Ring into it, which barely resisted the erosion of the dagger's poison.
What shocked him was that the poison on this black dagger was almost as poisonous as Yirihong.
Not only that, the nature of the poison on the dagger was constantly changing.
Huazhi was good at identifying poisons, and Ziji Taisui could integrate thousands of poisons. Yuan Ming followed him for a long time and his understanding of poisons was changing with each passing day.
The black dagger's poison was sometimes wood-attributed, sometimes earth-attributed, and then turned to fire poison, which really confused him.
It was a pity that Huazhi was breaking through, otherwise he could let him identify the poison on the black dagger.
"Be careful, the poison on this dagger is powerful. If we, the Yuanying period cultivators, are infected, we will be in big trouble. Don't touch it directly." Lei He reminded.
"Senior Lei He is well-informed. Do you know the origin of this poison? I have seen many poisons, but I have never seen such a poison that keeps changing its properties." Yuan Ming asked.
"Oh, you can see the details of this poison. You have a good eye. This black dagger is indeed not an ordinary poison, but a Gu poison." Lei He said with a trace of surprise in his eyes.
"Gu poison?" Yuan Ming was stunned.
"It's not surprising that you don't know that Gu poison is a secret product of the Five Immortals Sect in Southern Xinjiang. It is extracted from several kinds of poisonous Gu insects and then cultivated using the secret method of the Five Immortals Sect. Gu poison is a fusion of several kinds of poisons, so it has several properties. It is extremely difficult to resist and it is difficult to resolve if you are poisoned by it." Lei He was trying to make friends with Yuan Ming, so he explained carefully.
Yuan Ming's heart moved when he heard it. This Gu poison is quite similar to his Ziji Tai Sui.
"Senior has a deep understanding of poisons, and I admire him. I heard people say that the snake people are also good at using poisons. The most powerful poison is called Yihong. I don't know which one is stronger between the snake people and the Five Immortals Sect in terms of poison use. Weak?" He took the opportunity to ask.
"It's hard to compare. When it comes to the study of poison, the Snake Tribe and the Five Immortals Sect have gone to two extremes. The Snake Tribe's One-Day Red is highly toxic with water attributes. One-Day Red can be said to have brought the change of water-attribute poison to its fullest extent. In the extreme, the poison of the Five Immortals Sect is a blend of multiple poisons. The more types of poisons are incorporated, the more powerful the poison will be," Lei He said.
Yuan Ming understood. The Snake Tribe specializes in one type of poison, while the Five Immortals Sect follows a broad path.
"Thank you for your advice, senior." He thanked him, and after thinking for a moment, he threw the black dagger into Ziji Taisui's spirit beast bag.
Ziji Taisui noticed the poison on the black dagger, crawled over with a squirming body, opened a hole in his body, like a mouth, and swallowed the black dagger whole.
A black poisonous spot appeared on Zi Ji Tai Sui's body and spread quickly.
A burst of purple light emerged from Ziji Tai Sui's body, covering the black poisonous spots. The spread of the poisonous spots immediately slowed down a lot, but it was still spreading slowly.
Yuan Ming raised his brows slightly. This poison was indeed as poisonous as a day's beauty. Even Ziji Taisui couldn't resolve it after a while.
However, Ziji Taisui claims to be able to fuse all kinds of poisons, so if you spend more time, it shouldn't be a problem to resolve this poison.
"Young Yuan, Taoist Fellow Yan Xiang has this temper, so you don't have to worry too much. When we get out of Sanxian Island, I will call Fellow Taoist Jin Hua and together we will persuade Yan Xiang so that he will not really take action against you." Seeing Yuan Ming's silence, Lei He persuaded him.
Yuan Ming nodded, but actually did not take Yan Xiang's threat to heart.
While the two were talking, Yan Xiang had already discovered the problem with the teleportation array and started to repair it.
"Speaking of which, there is a level four dryad guarding the outside. Yanxiang and I came here by hiding and did not disturb it. How did you avoid that dryad?" Lei He seemed to find the atmosphere a bit awkward and had nothing to say. The one who was looking for something to talk started chatting with Yuan Ming.
Yuan Ming raised his head and blinked, his eyes filled with confusion: "Didn't the two seniors kill that tree demon?"
"What? The tree demon has died?" Lei He's eyes widened slightly.
"Yes, I passed by the woods above and found the body of a tree demon. Then I stopped to investigate and triggered the restriction and was teleported here." Yuan Ming said.
"Oh, really..." Lei He frowned.
The problem with the teleportation circle was not serious, and Yanxiang quickly repaired it.
The three of them stood in the formation, and after a flash of white light, they left the underground hall and returned to the woods.
Thunder Crane flew up and came to the place where the flower branches swallowed the banyan demon.
Most of the body of the banyan demon was swallowed up by the flower branches, leaving only a few remains.
Lei He glanced at it and then looked to the side. There were traces of the shocking blow of the Purple Star Nine Dragon Spear.
A pit that was several feet in size and bottomless lay brightly on the ground, as if someone had cut out a piece of the forest floor.
The big trees whose branches were flattened by the air waves stood desolately, with no leaves falling from them. This scene stretched far and wide, and it was even more shocking when viewed from a high altitude.
"Which fellow Taoist used this method?" Yan Xiang flew over and was surprised when he saw this scene.
Lei He did not speak, but turned to look at Yuan Ming who was slowly flying high into the sky.
"I don't know either. This is what I saw when I came here before. I thought it was the work of two seniors." Yuan Ming still looked confused.
Yan Xiang's eyes flashed for a moment, and he seemed to believe Yuan Ming's words, and turned around: "Maybe some Taoist friend from the Nascent Soul Stage passed by to do it. It seems that our progress has been slowed down a lot, and someone has already arrived. We are ahead, it’s better not to stay here any longer and go to the three peaks as soon as possible.”
Lei He nodded, glanced at the messy woods, took out a palm-sized flying boat, and threw it forward. The flying boat caught the wind and soon returned to its original size.
Seeing this situation, Yan Xiang boarded the flying boat directly, while Lei He turned his head and said hello:
"Yuan Xiaoyou, come up too."
Yuan Ming thought for a moment and flew up.
Now that many people from Fuso Island have come to Sanxian Island, he can no longer continue to move forward slowly.
Besides, with Lei He and the two here, if he encounters a level four monster again, he won't have to take the risk of fighting alone.
Lei He stood on the bow of the boat, pinched the magic formula, and the flying boat instantly accelerated and rushed towards the mountain. The speed was extremely fast, not under the full speed of the thunderstorm.
