Chapter 359 Poisonous Spirit Devouring Insect

“Sin?”

Fan Zisang said the word coldly, protecting Su Li and Jin Ying behind him, “Yue Lin, I have never done anything that exceeds the rules of the sect. Why am I guilty?”

Su Li gazed faintly to hear that. It turned out that Yue Lin was the First Senior Sister Apprentice from Danxia Mount, who had targeted at them secretly before.

Su Li dispersed her psychic awareness quietly and secretly sized up the woman.

Not mentioning the woman’s moral character, her cultivation was indeed extraordinary, reserved and concentrated. She had a force fluctuating in her body, with which Su Li felt very familiar.

“Poison practitioner?”

Su Li’s eyes flickered slightly. She had heard from Fan Zisang that this woman was specialized in water attack. Rumors were not all reliable, and seeing was believing, indeed.

“Ho…”

Yue Lin’s pretty face was cold, and a chilling light flashed across her eyes, “You took the just acquired disciples out of the sect without permission. This is a rule violation, isn’t it? I’ve heard that you are the last disciple of the Master, and have learned everything from her. Let me ask for some advice from you… dear Junior Fellow Apprentice.”

After saying this, she struck out before Fan Zisang could react. The spiritual power surged up a severe gale.

“Yue Lin, how dare you to strike at a fellow sect member?”

Fan Zisang changed his countenance slightly and warned loudly. But Yue Lin didn’t stop her movements, as if she did not hear his warning. The intention of killing could be clearly seen in her narrow and long eyes.

Fan Zisang didn’t want to reveal his power and was about to dodge away when he suddenly realized that Su Li and Jin Ying were still behind him. He couldn’t help cursing, “What a shame!”

To protect his junior sister apprentices, he had to raise his hand with spiritual power and encounter Yue Lin!

As soon as the two hands touched, came a thunderous sound, which attracted the other disciples on the mountain to raise their heads.

Boom!

The wind was raging. The trees around them bent over, and the leaves fell like raindrops. Jin Ying could not even open her eyes and was unsteady so that she grasped Su Li’s hand.

Su Li pretended to be unable to stand the wind and took Jin Ying to retreat, but her eyes were narrowly open. She stared closely at Yue Lin’s pale hand.

The two hands separated from the other once they touched. Both Fan Zisang and Yue Lin took three steps back, being evenly matched in power.

Fan Zisang was angry. As he was about to continue fighting, he saw a smile on Yue Lin’s face, and she floated away. Meanwhile, her slightly august voice spread throughout Danxia Mount.

“Haha! My dear Junior Fellow Apprentice, your cultivation is indeed impressive. The Secret Realm of Shattered Spirits is just approaching, so, you and I, as fellow sect members, should support each other. Let’s just stop this competition.”

The other disciples understood suddenly by her words.

“It turns out to be an interchange between First Senior Sister Apprentice and her junior fellow apprentice, no wonder the sound was so loud.”

“When can I have the bearing and cultivation like her? I’m so envious of the senior fellow apprentice excised with her.”

“Right; right…”

The other inherited disciples, who knew Yue Lin’s true features, frowned, when they heard this. They wondered who was bullied by Yue Lin.

This kind of thing had ever happened before, and they all stood out to tell the truth. But in the end, even the Mount Head could not stop her, and they were punished sullenly without any reason.

Over time, when this happened again, everyone kept silent and didn’t dare to come out and say a word.

At this moment, on the summit,

Fan Zisang frowned tightly, looking in the direction where Yue Lin disappeared. He was somehow puzzled.

He could sense that Yue Lin hadn’t used her full strength, for she just left after one strike. It didn’t seem that she was testing his power. What exactly did she want?

“Yue Lin’s action must have a reason, and it didn’t happen randomly. I just haven’t found the reason yet.”

Taking a deep breath, Fan Zisang left his thoughts aside temporarily. He was relaxed to find Su Li and Jin Ying safe and sound and took them to the side hall.

After settling down Su Li and Jin Ying, Fan Zisang returned to his residence and immediately began to communicate with the jade token on his neck.

“Senior, I have a question for you!”

After a while, a familiar and old voice rang in his ears, saying languidly, “What is the matter?”

Fan Zisang immediately told his experience, and the elder pondered for a moment and then suddenly said, “Turn your hand over and let me see.”

Fan Zisang was shocked and opened his right hand. He really found an inconspicuous black dot in his palm. His face looked immediately slightly unpleasant, and he was about to mobilize his psychic awareness to clear it but was stopped by the elder.

“This is a Poisonous Spirit Devouring Insect. If you clear it with your spiritual power, you will speed up its growth, just like you give honey to a bear.”

The elder’s voice sounded serious, “Do not use your spiritual power during this time. Fighting with others will also accelerate its growth. When it grows big enough, your entire cultivation will not be enough for it. In just a few days, you will regress to a mortal. If there is no spiritual power left to suck, it will start draining your blood until you are dried out.”

Fan Zisang’s body was trembling, and his face was ashen. Yue Lin… had poisoned him so cruelly!

“Do you have a cure for this poison, Senior?”

He couldn’t help but getting nervous, for he had checked out that even his master Wang Yu was incomparable to the senior in the jade token in terms of experience. If even the senior didn’t know about it, curing his poison would be on the line.

“Alas…”

As the elder sighed, Fan Zisang’s heart was chilled with disappointment.

“If my physical body and my cultivation were still there, your poison could be cured easily. But right now, … I am helpless. If you can find a practitioner who is proficient in poisoning, there might be a chance…”

Fan Zisang sat on the futon in silence. His complexion was vaguely tinged with despair.

Poison practitioner… They could be counted with one’s fingers in Jiuzhou Region. They were all from evil factions, and they were more powerful than his master, so, he didn’t have any leverage to ask for their help.

“If that’s impossible, we’ll have to find ways from the person who poisoned you.”

The elder hesitated for a moment after he said so, but he didn’t tell Fan Zisang his speculations about Su Li for two reasons in the end. Firstly, there was a long time before Fan Zisang’s poison broke out; secondly… he didn’t dare!

He didn’t dare to confirm!

Back then, those who entered the illusion had only two ways to get out from Reincarnation Mirror.

One way was being teleported out because his Life Ring was broken and he was killed to get free from the fate in the illusion. In this case, he would lose all the memories in the illusion.

The second one was that one forcibly escaped on the day when Reincarnation Mirror shattered. He would not be restricted by the rules of Reincarnation Mirror, and his memory could naturally be preserved.

The elder barely belonged to the second type. Due to his insufficient cultivation, he had escaped from the Mirror, but he was half-dead. If he hadn’t met the jade token, he would’ve vanished long ago.

This was why his memories about Su Li were so profound, because his memories of the two lifetimes in the illusion overlapped… If Su Li in Danxia Mount was exactly that person, what a terrifying evil would she be?

If she had found out her role in that setup back then, what a grudge against the entire cultivation circle of Qingshui Circle would she have? When the time came, the people in Qingshui Circle would be plunged into misery and suffering, and not even a blade of grass would grow.

“Hopefully… it’s just a coincidence like the kid said.”

The elder muttered, his voice dwindling down.

When a half-day passed by, a red light flashed into the peak. Fan Zisang immediately got up and hastened to the main hall.

Su Li’s psychic awareness was focusing on Fan Zisang. After sensing the familiar fluctuations bursting out of Fan Zisang’s body once again and his face suddenly became unsightly, she had a guess in her mind.

“There is a soul-body hidden in Fan Zisang’s body, and maybe it is an acquaintance from the other life…”

Su Li was thinking. She had recognized that Yue Lin poisoned Fan Zisang during their fight. Although she couldn’t know what poison it was, as long as it wasn’t above Jindan Realm, she could detoxify without any difficulties.

She had studied medicine and poison in her two lives in the illusion, plus her 900-years-long cultivation experience in her previous life. It would not be as simple as just putting these together.

Although having not tested yet, Su Li knew that she had already surpassed all the realms in her previous life, and reached an unknown realm.

She had no good testing object for the time being, and Huajian Sect was just too small to meet a powerful opponent. Except for her friend Hua Yan, the others were all unable to withstand a single hit.

“I’m afraid I have to wait until I enter Secret Realm of Shattered Spirits and take those shattered spirits to test.”

Thinking of Hua Yan, Su Li frowned. She gave up the thought of meeting with Hua Yan in the end.

Right now, the time was not proper.

Thinking of this, she got up and went out. Jin Ying asked hurriedly, “Where are you going, Junior Sister Apprentice? It’s dangerous out there, and you’d better to wait for the senior fellow apprentice…”

As Jin Ying asked, she suddenly froze, and then embarrassedly scratched her hair, for she had forgotten that Su Li needed no protection from her senior fellow apprentice.

Su Li left the palace without further trouble and glanced at the silent main hall. She used her All Spirits Tactics to cover her pneuma and fluttered down the mountain like a ghost.

A few moments later, Su Li had reached the edge of the illusionary tactics at the foot of the mountain. She took out a carrier rune and infused a spiritual power. A green shadow flashed in the dense forest. It was Lv You who followed Su Li all the way. He stood in front of Su Li reverently.

“Master.”

When Su Li found that Lv You’s pneuma was covered more secretly than before, she couldn’t help but lightly nodding. This was a sign to practice the whole All Spirits Tactics.

“How is the errand I told you to do?”

Lv You replied immediately, “Master, what a coincidence! A little Secret Realm named ‘Broken Spirit’, which is controlled by Wanjian Sect, will be opened in less than a month! I have secured a place for you, Master. Look, please.”

After saying that, Lv You took out an emerald-colored ring tied with a piece of red rope. It was very beautiful.

Su Li reached out and accepted it, with an extra faint smile on her face, “You are considerate.”

She didn’t ask how Lv You got this thing. Although Secret Realm of Shattered Spirits was controlled by Wanjian Sect, a lot of talented casual practitioners would be invited every time. It would be incompetent for a practitioner of Jindan Realm to get no place.

Seeing Su Li’s smile, Lv You was relaxed quite a bit. Then he laughed bitterly, “As for Zhenlou Group you mentioned, Master, I couldn’t find out anything besides that it was related to Su Family, the practicing family.”

Su Li was slightly stunned and blurted out, “Which Su Family?”

Lv You sighed that Su Li was too young and knew little common knowledge. But he still replied, “There is no other Su Family in Jiuzhou Region; I mean the one where the holy girl Su Zipei comes from!”
