Chapter 393: Three Hundred Ninety-Three Immortal Poison Body
"Alright, let’s go with Ling Wan!"
Having made up his mind, Yu Shu did not waver. As the Sect Master of a sect, he certainly had this authority, especially since the entire Poison Vein branch had been utterly defeated in this Spiritual Chick Battle List, and was already in disarray.
Having received the Sect Master’s instructions, Su He also wanted to build a good relationship with Yun Xiao, and thus turned around to announce loudly. After the final slot was announced, everyone had their own thoughts.
The disciples from the Poison Vein branch were naturally somewhat discontent, especially Elder Mo Li. Between the fifth and eighth places, one of his disciples was listed. He had harbored a sliver of hope, but now it seemed that it had been nothing but wishful thinking.
However, when Mo Li turned his head and saw Lu Zhan and Li Shan smiling, he chose to remain silent. Ever since Elder Yan Chun defected, the Poison Vein branch has weakened, and now with Fu Du leaving in anger, he felt even more unsupported.
As for the younger disciples from the Poison Vein branch, after their gaze swept over Yun Xiao who was on the stage, of course, they dared not say a word, for they all knew of Ling Wan’s close relationship with Yun Xiao.
What a joke, the Poison Vein’s Yue Qi, Bi Luo, and Yin Huan all lost to Yun Xiao. One dead, one lost all their Meridian Qi, and another had an arm severed.
After this battle, Yun Xiao’s harmless persona had completely collapsed. Everyone knew that this young man, who joined the sect just over a year ago, could be ruthlessly overpowering, and probably no one among the younger generation of the Jade Pot Sect could match him.
It was just a slot for the Countries Hidden Dragon Conference, and there was no need to provoke Yun Xiao at this point. If he took notice, the fate of Fu Du’s three disciples would be a clear warning to all.
So, after Su He looked around, he originally thought there would be voices of dissent from the Poison Vein disciples, but in the end, he was surprised as no one questioned it, which he found puzzling.
As for those who were on good terms with Ling Wan, like Tan Yun, Mo Qing, and Chang Qing, they were visibly elated. Regardless, they did not have much fondness for the guys from the Poison Vein branch and naturally hoped that their own Medical Pulse branch would shine.
Thus, an unconventional Spiritual Chick Battle List came to an end, but the discussions about top talents like Yun Xiao, Yue Qi, and Mo Qing were unlikely to dissipate any time soon.
Especially that youngster named Yun Xiao. After this battle, he had topped the Spiritual Chick List and became the undisputed number one among the youth of the Jade Pot Sect. It must be said that this was a record since the founding of the Jade Pot Sect.
......
The hidden commotion of the Jade Pot Sect continued, but at this moment, Yun Xiao was already in a secluded room. Before him sat a girl with a beautiful face, who else could it be but Liu Hanyi from the Luoyi Sect?
"Leader Jia, aren’t you being a bit too anxious?"
Yun Xiao was somewhat helpless, turning around to look at the Luoyi Sect Leader who stood by his side. It turned out that right after the Spiritual Chick Battle List ended today, this master-disciple pair had brought him to his residence, insisting that he must control Liu Hanyi’s body immediately.
In fact, although Yun Xiao had caught Yue Qi off guard with the Dragon Taming Sword and won, the battles before were exhausting. He just wanted to rest well and recover his Meridian Qi first.
"Yun Xiao, it’s not that we’re anxious, but... today is the fifteenth, and if we don’t control it now, Hanyi will..."
Jia Yi’s pretty face showed a trace of apology, and when she turned her head towards Liu Hanyi, there was a look of affection. Perhaps she really treated this disciple as if she were her own daughter?
"The fifteenth?"
Hearing this, Yun Xiao’s mind stirred, suddenly recalling the first time he saw Liu Hanyi at the Xuanyue Palace. He declared back then that even though Jia Yi had managed to control Liu Hanyi’s constitution with some overpowering Heavenly Materials and Earthly Treasures, the pain that struck every first and fifteenth of the month couldn’t be eliminated.
Yun Xiao turned his head to look at the rising full moon outside, calculating the time. It really was the fifteenth, which meant that Liu Hanyi’s pain would likely arrive soon.
While deep in thought, a slight movement came from behind him. Yun Xiao quickly turned around, and then he saw Liu Hanyi, who was sitting cross-legged on the bed, frown tightly.
"Is it happening?"
Jia Yi’s face showed even more affection, and after murmuring to herself, the respected Sect Leader deeply bowed to Yun Xiao, earnestly saying, "Yun Xiao, if you can control Hanyi’s pain, Jia Yi will be immensely grateful!"
"Don’t worry, Sect Leader. Since I’ve promised, I, Yun Xiao, will not go back on my word. However... please step aside for a moment!"
Yun Xiao nodded, but some of his techniques were not for the eyes of others, so he needed Jia Yi to leave first. Upon hearing this, she was slightly startled, but after taking a deep look at Liu Hanyi, she complied and left.
With Jia Yi gone, Yun Xiao walked directly to the windows on both sides and, with a swipe of his hand, took out two black curtains from his Waist Storage, covering both windows.
"With the Moon Eclipsed Body, initial control must avoid moonlight exposure, especially on the first and fifteenth!"
After finishing all that, Yun Xiao confidently walked back to the bedside, murmuring as he went. It seemed he had already made a judgment about Liu Hanyi’s physique, and his actions were those of someone well-versed in the task.
The so-called Moon Eclipsed Body is an exceptionally rare physique even in the Nine-layered Dragon Cloud, peculiar in its origins. Legend has it that the body is conceived under the essence of moonlight but becomes extremely susceptible to sunlight after birth.
Somehow, Sect Leader Jia Yi of the Luoyi Sect managed to make Liu Hanyi no longer fear sunlight and also endowed her with an extraordinary talent for cultivation.
Yun Xiao had once encountered an individual with the Moon Eclipsed Body in the Nine-layered Dragon Cloud and had debated with this person for several days, learning some of the secrets of the Moon Eclipsed Body.
Thus, back in the Xuanyue Palace, Yun Xiao recognized at a glance that Liu Hanyi was naturally born with the Moon Eclipsed Body. Although her body had been tempered to no longer fear sunlight, she would still suffer immense pain during the new moon and full moon.
To avoid this pain, there was actually a simple method: to cover up all the moonlight outside with black cloth, preventing the moonlight from shining in, thus naturally avoiding any affliction.
This was the conclusion Yun Xiao had reached upon his discussion with the individual with the Moon Eclipsed Body back in the Nine-layered Dragon Cloud. Of course, this method of blocking the moonlight was only a temporary solution and not a permanent cure.
What Yun Xiao was doing now was just the first step. He wanted to alleviate Liu Hanyi’s pain before using methods from his previous life to look for a permanent cure.
"Hmm?"
However, just as Yun Xiao hung the black curtain over the two windows and was walking back to the bedside, his gaze suddenly sharpened. He noticed that the expression of pain on Liu Hanyi’s face had not lessened but instead intensified.
"What’s going on?"
Yun Xiao’s expression changed slightly, voicing his confusion. He was certain that this was the Moon Eclipsed Body. According to the individual he met before, shouldn’t blocking the moonlight ease the pain?
"Ah, should I say you are overly confident, or merely uninformed?"
Right when Yun Xiao was at a loss, a somewhat mocking voice suddenly emitted from within him. Without looking, he knew it was the Golden Snake Worm speaking.
At this point, Yun Xiao couldn’t afford to argue with the Golden Snake Worm. He now understood that this creature might come from a higher plane than himself and might possess far greater knowledge.
"Is this not the Moon Eclipsed Body?"
Yun Xiao was not stubborn. If the method of blocking the moonlight didn’t work, he knew he probably made a mistake. If he boasted in front of Sect Leader Jia Yi and ended up misdiagnosing the condition, that would be a huge embarrassment.
"Ridiculous! To think you mistaken the eminent ’Immortal Poison Body’ for a mere Moon Eclipsed Body, what a farce!"
The Golden Snake Worm didn’t keep Yun Xiao in suspense. Although its tone remained teasing, it immediately revealed an unfamiliar term, leaving Yun Xiao somewhat baffled.
You should know Yun Xiao was once the Long Xiao Battle God of the Nine-layered Dragon Cloud. He traversed the Dragon Cloud for thousands of years, unmatched in experience, and yet, even with all his knowledge, he had never heard of this so-called "Immortal Poison Body."
Sensing that Yun Xiao might not have information on this physique, the Golden Snake Worm’s eyes flashed with disdain before speaking again: "The formation process of the Immortal Poison Body is somewhat similar to the Moon Eclipsed Body, yet there is not the slightest comparison between the two - like comparing the light of a firefly to the bright moon or an ant to a giant elephant!"
Seeing that Yun Xiao still looked puzzled, the Golden Snake Worm further explained: "The Immortal Poison Body, too, is influenced by moonlight essence within the maternal womb. However, the key character in this physique is ’poison.’ The Immortal Embryo Poison is unique in the world, and the most formidable poison there is. If one can control it for themselves, they will be unparalleled across the Continent, with none able to cure it!"
Yun Xiao listened in shock. This creature’s description made the so-called Immortal Poison Body seem far more powerful than the Demon Seal Poison Body that Yue Qi had during the day.
"Demon Seal Poison Body? It’s not even fit to carry the shoes of the Immortal Poison Body!"
As if knowing what Yun Xiao was thinking, the Golden Snake Worm scoffed and continued: "Who would have thought that the small Hidden Dragon Continent would not only produce a Pure Yang Immortal Body but also give rise to an Immortal Poison Body - truly curious and strange!"
As the Golden Snake Worm was speaking, it itself seemed to become puzzled. However, Yun Xiao turned his head to see Liu Hanyi in so much pain that her face was contorted, prompting him to become increasingly anxious.
"You’ve said so much, but is there actually a way to control this so-called Immortal Poison Body?"
Yun Xiao was somewhat hopeful. He already realized his mistake as soon as the black curtain proved ineffective, and since the Golden Snake Worm knew the details of this physique, it might also know a way to control it, right?
"Uh... this..."
But when Yun Xiao asked, a hint of embarrassment flashed in the Golden Snake Worm’s serpentine eyes. Yun Xiao, observing this reaction through his Inner Vision Eye, felt his heart sink, bracing for an ominous premonition.
