Chapter 1228: An Insect With A Hundred Legs Could Die But Would Not Perish, Yokai Concubine Daji’s Inheritance
“D*mn it!”
The gold scorpion’s face turned pale as the poisonous qi was shoved into his mouth.
This poisonous qi was the culmination of all Five Poisons’ toxins. They, themselves, might be able to control it, but it was difficult for them to resist it because other than their respective toxin, it contained four more types of toxins.
Not to mention, the poisonous qi that Chu Kuangren shoved into his mouth also contained the snake yokai’s Fated Poison Blood.
Moments later, the gold scorpion screamed excruciatingly on the spot. The poison was already starting to break his body and the Daoist patterns on his Immortal Body.
“This is ridiculous!” Wu Tian reacted with a grim expression, but he was also shaken by what was happening.
If Chu Kuangren had complete immunity against poison, he would be the bane of the Five Poison.
To Wu Tian, it was a terrifying fact.
“We’ll attack together! I refuse to believe we can’t kill him!” Wu Tian bellowed coldly.
The toad, spider woman, and snake transformed into their true form and attacked Chu Kuangren.
To their surprise, the one who ushered the attack, Wu Tian, fled the moment they attacked. He left the Five Poisons Formation and flew into the distance.
The Yokai Tribe’s sky-prides were stunned by Wu Tian’s cowardice.
“Geez, did Wu Tian just abandon his teammates?”
“He said to attack together, yet he ran away. Where’s his pride as a sky-pride?”
“I guess the pride of a sky-pride means nothing in front of a monster like Chu Kuangren. Saving his own skin becomes the priority.”
“I guess you’re right.”
The other yokai gloated at the situation.
On the other hand, the other three of the Five Poisons were horrified and furious when they realized Wu Tian abandoned them.
“Wu Tian, you b*stard!”
“You will die a horrible death!”
“Don’t worry. He won’t escape, just like the rest of you.”
Chu Kuangren chuckled and then pointed his sword hand sign forward. With the help of the Green Leaf Sword Vision, his sword qi gushed out rampantly and instantly obliterated the toad, spider woman, and snake yokai.
After that, he grinned at the fleeing Wu Tian.
His Descendant Self Sword unsheathed itself, and a stem of sword grass appeared behind him. As the leaf swayed, a surge of sharp sword qi dashed across the sky as if it could cut the starry sky in half.
The sword qi flew across the sky, wrapping time and space, and caught up to Wu Tian in less than a fraction of a second.
Wu Tian fought back with all he got, but his efforts were futile.
Along with the sound of a tear, poisonous blood gushed out from his body.
The slash had cut him into two and reverted him into his true form. The massive thousand-legged centipede fell on the ground and caused a dust storm to rise.
The other yokai cultivators stared at Chu Kuangren in fear.
Every single one of the Five Poisons was a sky-pride of the Great Ten Thousand Mountains, with Wu Tian being the strongest of them all.
However, even with the five of them teaming up, they could not withstand a single attack from Chu Kuangren.
“I don’t think even the Golden Crow Crown Prince or the Battle Saint Ape could beat this person.”
“Compared to that, I’m more curious how he, a human, came into the Ancient Heavenly Yokai Cave. It’s really strange.”
The yokai were left with many unanswered questions because Chu Kuangren left as soon as he killed all the Five Poisons.
His figure flashed and disappeared from the spot.
After he left the scene, an immense amount of poisonous blood gushed from the dead centipede’s body.
The blood reaped life wherever it flowed.
Amid the gushing poisonous blood, a thumb-sized black centipede crawled out.
“D*mn it! D*mn it! The slash destroyed my body! If I didn’t keep one of the Fated Poison Progeny in my previous body, I would have died by now!”
Fated Poison Progeny was a secret technique passed down by the Sky Centipede Tribe.
An insect with a hundred legs could die but not perish, more so a centipede with a thousand legs.
However, using the Fated Poison Progeny would cost him more than ninety percent of his cultivation base, and the consequences that followed would be unimaginable.
Still, no amount of sacrifice could compare to losing his life.
“Chu Kuangren, just you wait. When I recover, I will have my revenge!”
…
“Miss Fei Yu, I have some antidotes here. Please use some.”
Once Chu Kuangren was somewhere without people, he released Tushan Fei Yu and the others from his Enchanted Sleeve. He even provided them with some antidote pills.
The toxin that the Five Poisons cultivated was unusually strong, so common antidote pills might not work.
Fortunately, Chu Kuangren had mastered a set of amazing medicinal skills other than creating antidote pills. As such, he was able to cure everyone after a short while.
“Thank you, Brother Chu.”
Tushan Fei Yu and the others bowed solemnly at their savior.
In addition to the previous one, Chu Kuangren had saved her twice, and she had no idea how to repay his kindness anymore.
She was even considering marrying Chu Kuangren if he agreed.
However, she passed on the idea as it came across too cheap.
She believed Chu Kuangren was not a boorish person.
Having such an idea was already an insult to Chu Kuangren, and it was unforgivable.
“Don’t mention it.”
Chu Kuangren had no idea what Tushan Fei Yu was thinking. To him, saving her was only out of convenience, and because of Lil Fox, he had quite a friendly relationship with Tushan and Emerald Hill.
Perhaps in the future, he might be able to use Tushan and Emerald Hill to achieve some kind of objective.
If others could read his thoughts, they would probably look down on him.
After all, Emerald Hill and Tushan were no common forces.
Either one of them could rival an ancient immortal orthodoxy, and both Fox Kings were two of the strongest Arch-Gilded Immortals out there.
It was nearly impossible for them to be a tool or be used by someone else.
However, Chu Kuangren had confidence.
With his talents and power, it was only a matter of time before he broke through to become an Arch-Gilded Immortal.
His final goal was to become the supreme ruler of the entire universe. Not even being Immortal World Ruler could satisfy him anymore.
He had never talked about his goal to anyone before, but it was slowly materializing.
“There are a lot of Opportunities of Fortune in the Ancient Heavenly Yokai Cave, and a Fox Tribe’s great one had left behind inheritances in this land. We’re going to search for it, so why don’t you join us in the expedition, Brother Chu?” Tushan Fei Yu said.
Chu Kuangren thought about her invitation for a moment before he nodded. “Alright.”
He was not entirely familiar with the Ancient Heavenly Yokai Cave, and being one of the oldest forces of the Great Ten Thousand Mountains, Emerald Hill’s and Tushan’s people knew the cave better than him.
Tagging along with the group might bring surprising results.
With that, Chu Kuangren followed Tushan Fei Yu and the others to search for the Fox Tribe’s great one whom she mentioned.
The Fox Tribe’s great one had an astounding background and a reputation among the humans.
That great one was a lot more well-known than many yokai that ever existed.
She was none other than the legendary Yokai Concubine, Daji.
During ancient immortal times, the humans elected a king to govern and rule over the kingdom.
In an ancient rumor, King Zhou was infatuated with the Yokai Concubine, Daji, and became a ruthless tyrant. He killed the innocents and the loyals, and his ruthlessness was resented by many. He indirectly caused the decline of his dynasty, the Yin Shang Dynasty.
After the Yin Shang Dynasty became history, Daji disappeared and was never to be found again.
Now, it seemed like she had left behind her inheritance in the Ancient Heavenly Yokai Cave.
“Interesting.”
“Rumor has it that Daji possessed beauty that could infatuate an entire kingdom, so I’m quite intrigued.” Chu Kuangren smiled with a hint of anticipation.
He was not looking forward to Daji’s beauty but what kind of inheritance she left behind.
