Chapter 48 - Chapter 51: Soul Pressure

  . Liu Yu watched all this with indifference, an invisible force surging within his crimson eyes.

  Just as the three Mulan elders were about to strike, a vast, overbearing, and unrivaled soul force, centered around Liu Yu, swept out in all directions like a storm.

  In a matter of moments, the entire vast plain was enveloped, the space began to tremble, and invisible ripples emanated from the void.

  As the soul force surged ever more fiercely, all the people from the three empires froze in place, as if under a spell of immobilization.

  Jia Xingtian and his men were horrified. They hadn't lost control of their bodies, but they could clearly sense the terrifying power of that soul force, like ants facing a giant dragon!

  At that moment, the three Mulan elders and Luo Yantian suddenly erupted with a terrifying fighting spirit, forcing themselves to break free from the soul force's restraints. But in that instant, they were met with four invisible soul-destroying needles!

  Jia Xingtian and the others sensed four fleeting, terrifying waves. Then, Luo Yantian, Mulan, and the other three elders lost their life force and vanished into the void.

  Liu Yu sensed the four bodies within the system's space, his gaze fixed slightly on a certain spot on the plain. Suddenly, with a spatial distortion, waves of black mist emerged from that space.

  The mist curled and dispersed, revealing dozens of figures shrouded in the mist.

  Seeing these figures cloaked in the mist, those present were unavoidably terrified. When had these sinister beings been hiding there?

  Within the mist, two Dou Zong masters, and the rest were Dou Huangs and Dou Wangs, represented a formidable force.

  Liu Yu, secretly observing the Little Medical Immortal, noticed that her gray-purple eyes showed no sign of surprise at the Soul Palace's presence. It seemed they were indeed "cooperating" with the Soul Palace...

  Liu Yu gave up thinking further. With a thought, the billowing black fog in the void, along with the dozens of figures within it, was instantly compressed by an invisible force into a small, dense black mist, imbued with astonishing soul fluctuations.

  The materials for refining the Heavenly Demon Puppet had finally been gathered! Hehehe...

  Liu Yu absorbed the black mist and temporarily suppressed it within his spiritual world, then withdrew his soul power.

  Jia Xingtian and the others stared at Liu Yu in amazement. Two Dou Zongs and dozens of Dou Huangs and Dou Wangs were so easily annihilated? This was even more shocking than Liu Yu's killing of Luo Yantian and the three elders of Mulan.

  Those four were killed silently, while those within the black fog witnessed those dozens of figures, unable even to struggle, being compressed into a small cloud of black mist by a vast, invisible force!

  The impassive Little Medical Immortal, however, revealed a flicker of surprise in her violet eyes upon noticing the Soul Palace members being easily annihilated by Liu Yu.

  She was well aware of the treacherous nature of these Soul Palace members, but recalling the events of the past, her tranquil heart began to waver.

  ...

  After that chance encounter with that person and the acquisition of the "Alchemy Manual," she gained access to previously unknown medicinal herbs, which led to her frequent visits to the Demonic Beast Mountains. Then, while accidentally brewing a new poison, she developed the venomous body.

  Unexpectedly, a cyan flame suddenly erupted from her body, suppressing it. From then on, driven by a craving for poison and the flame's ability to suppress it, she began consuming large quantities of poisons and toxic herbs. Her strength increased at an almost visibly terrifying rate, a feeling she became obsessed with.

  Six months after obtaining the Alchemy Manual, she was no longer satisfied with these low-level poisons and left the Gama Empire for the Izumo Empire, where poison masters were prevalent. In a small mountain village there, she met two kind, childless elderly people. Longing for family affection, she spent six months with them as if they were her own family. She treated them like her parents, and they, in turn, treated her like their own child.

  She cherished the happiness of having family around her and secretly vowed to protect it!

  However, the long-suppressed toxicity of her body finally erupted! She knew it was all her fault. She shouldn't have sneaked out at night to consume highly toxic herbs, and she shouldn't have trusted the cyan flame to keep her safe!   

  That night, when she awoke from the outbreak of her afflicted poisonous body, the entire mountain village was shrouded in a venomous fog. Her "parents," her kindly villagers, everything she had was gone!

  The once kind and gentle faces of her deceased "parents" were now etched with agony. Why! The two people she loved most had been killed by her in the most excruciating way! Why!

  The heart-wrenching pain, the ache that pierced her bones, numbed her soul. Overwhelmed, she fainted. When she awoke again, her hair had turned snow-white.

  From then on, her heart was sealed, and everything in the past was gone!

  ...

  When Liu Yu released the "soul pressure," an oppressive atmosphere permeated the entire plain. The vast armies of the three empires stood in silence, and even those warriors with Dou Qi wings dared not breathe.

  "What's your choice?" Liu Yu asked, looking at the Little Medical Immortal, whose gray-purple eyes were filled with complexity.

  "Kill me." Calming the long-buried "pain" in her heart, Little Medical Immortal looked at Liu Yu with a sorrowful tone.

  The moment he unleashed that terrifying soul power, she had given up the struggle. The solution to the Evil Poison Body, everything... Perhaps, death was her final destination, only death could wash away her sins!

  Liu Yu frowned slightly. Was he ready to die? But with such terrifying potential, it would be a shame to see someone like him die like this!

  In just three years or so, he had risen from a mere ant, barely a Dou Zhe, to the Dou Zong realm like a rocket. Even Liu Yu, who possessed the system, exclaimed, "Amazing!"

  "Die? You owe me so much, how dare you die? Once you've repaid me, you can die however you want. I won't stop you." Liu Yu said snobbishly. He had invested in Little Medical Immortal, and now that the time had come to reap the rewards, he must exploit her fully.

  A delicate hand unconsciously clenched within her sleeve, and a flicker of astonishment crossed Xiao Yixian's lifeless eyes. "Repay him and then die?" I...

  Xiao Yixian took a deep breath. She suddenly didn't want to die so soon. She had to drag this shameless "bitch" down with her!

  "I hope you won't regret it!" Xiao Yixian gave Liu Yu a rather hostile look.

  Liu Yu simply smiled in response. How could he not know Xiao Yixian's evil intentions? The so-called outbreak of the Evil Poison Body meant nothing to him. He had a method to control it, and coincidentally, he had all the necessary ingredients.

  This method, also known as the method for creating a poison pill, was a special recipe for an unknown grade contained in the alchemy techniques granted to him by the system. It allowed the possessor of the Evil Poison Body to condense all the accumulated toxins in their body into a poison pill, thus completely mastering the Evil Poison Body.

  He also happened to possess all three ingredients needed to refine the poison pill: three types of strange fire, but he had four.

  The second is the magic core of the seventh-level Sky Poison Scorpion Dragon Beast. After the unification of the Black Horn Domain, Yu Ge accidentally collected it. It was obtained by a mysterious person who escaped from the Southern Domain at the first Tianyu Auction.

  At that time, it was first bought by a Douhuang strongman from an unknown continent. Then Yuan Yi directly led a group of elders and many deacons to kill the Douhuang in a mountain range and retrieved the magic core. Then it came into his hands.

  The third is Bodhi Body Saliva, which was obtained from the treasure house of the Black Emperor Sect.

  It was also Xiao Yixian's good luck that he had these three things to refine poison pills. That's why Liu Yu had the idea of ​​taking Xiao Yixian as his subordinate. For no other reason, he could use it to obtain a controllable evil poison body!
