The Demon Slayer Martial Saint Begins with Insect Refining

Chapter 292 A Sea of ​​Poison
Duan Chen's expression turned solemn. The four of them also turned grim, and at the same time, they protected a python grass on the reef behind them.

"Aren't you two being a bit too domineering?"

Duan Chen was the patriarch of the Hanyang Sect on Qianli Peak. The other three were either family patriarchs or patriarchs of minor sects. All four were friends and independent cultivators.

The reason he recognized Long Qiushui was that he had just seen Su Yan and Long Qiushui at the entrance of Poison Dragon Lake.

"so what?"

Long Qiushui merely sneered, and the Frost Moon Ring and Shadow Sun Ring shot directly towards Duan Chen.

The two streaks of light moved swiftly, but Duan Chen was already prepared the moment he saw Long Qiushui. His flying sword struck out with a clang, barely managing to block the attack.

However, the corrosive force caused him to stagger backward.

So strong!

He was also a martial artist at the third level, but he never expected that the gap between him and Long Qiushui would be so great.

"But is there some misunderstanding?"

At this moment, Duan Chen and his three companions were intimidated by Long Qiushui's power and still wanted to deceive her.

Unexpectedly, Su Yan walked up to him unhurriedly, his eyes narrowing slightly: "Didn't you want to ask me about my situation on Poison Dragon Peak, and whether I needed any help? What, you're not going to ask now?"

Duan Chen's expression changed drastically, and his eyes suddenly turned into a fierce, wolf-like look.

"Let's do it together!"

He attacked Su Yan directly, wielding his spirit sword and aiming straight for Su Yan's heart.

'I should have attacked directly on Poison Dragon Peak.'

On Poison Dragon Peak, the four traveled together, but three of them were hiding. Only Duan Chen stepped forward to inquire about Su Yan's condition.

This thief wasn't asking about the situation at all; he was clearly taking the opportunity to commit murder and steal the treasure.

However, Long Qiushui was ruthless and taciturn, and directly suppressed Duan Chen with the Frost Moon Ring, forcing Duan Chen to retreat into the Poison Dragon Lake. He never expected to meet Duan Chen here.

Duan Chen knew things were not going to end well, so he immediately launched an attack, his sword flashing as he surrounded and attacked Long Qiushui.

The remaining three were in the same boat as him, so they didn't hesitate to take action now.

The true meaning manifested as the Golden-Winged Serpent, the Spirit Shadow Rat, and the Flying Fire Ox, which immediately launched a massive attack on Su Yan.

Su Yan swung his large hand, and the Star-Picking Hand descended from the sky, directly grasping Duan Chen's sword blade.

The sword's edge shattered inch by inch, leaving only the sword's core to support it.

Duan Chen was shocked and blurted out, "How can your true essence be so abundant?"

Su Yan did not answer. His figure was like a phantom. He took a step and was already close to him. Golden scales covered his entire arm, and the true meaning of the poisonous dragon was attached to his fist. He threw a punch down.

bang
Duan Chen managed to hold the spirit sword in front of him, but it didn't do much good.

Su Yan's fierce attack sent him crashing into the ground of the island, creating a deep crater. He was embedded in the crater, and dust billowed up.

The Poison Dragon's true intent engulfed it; if it weren't for the protective armor on its body, it would probably have been pulverized to pieces by now.

Even so, his body was covered in bluish-purple markings, and the toxins were constantly eroding his body.

Su Yan's decisive blow against Duan Chen undoubtedly frightened Ji Wendao, Wang Gao, and Sun Lichi.

With a fierce determination, they immediately unleashed their natal spiritual weapons at Su Yan, along with their true essence beast spirits, transforming into a surging attack.

In the blink of an eye, their attack had already closed in on Su Yan.

Su Yan's body was covered in insect armor, his eyes were sharp as knives, and he shouted, "Break!"

With a single punch, he unleashed the power of the Ming King Subduing the Tiger and the Dragon Raising with One Arm. His punch seemed to stir up a towering tidal wave, directly engulfing the attacks of the three men.

The booming sound was like thunder. Su Yan's figure was shaken by the powerful force of the clash. The combined strength of the three, a third-level martial artist and two second-level martial artists at the peak of their second level, was not an ordinary move.

The three opposite were in an even worse state. Their true essence was shaken and nearly disintegrated. Their natal spiritual weapons were blasted away, and their true essence was in turmoil.

All three had faint traces of blood around their mouths and noses, indicating minor injuries from the shock.

"We are willing to hand over the venomous python's corpse, demon core, and python grass to you, fellow Daoist. Please show mercy."

Wang Gao shouted loudly, without mentioning Duan Chen, who had fallen into a coma in the deep pit.

When disaster strikes, everyone scatters. Don't talk about being brothers who risked their lives for each other before. Now, only by surviving can you talk about anything else.

"late"

Behind Wang Gao, the poisonous lake churned with toxic water, and the Blood Bone Centipede King burst out of the water with a splash. Its blood-red carapace looked extremely dangerous against the backdrop of the purplish-black poisonous water.

The Blood Bone Centipede King bit off most of Wang Gao's body, its body enveloped in poisonous mist, like a crimson ghost hand controlled by someone, instantly enveloping the remaining two.

The sizzling sound continued, and under the corrosion of flesh and blood, Ji Wendao and Sun Lichi screamed in pain in just one exchange, their skin and flesh being eroded down to just a layer of bone and blood.

The two desperately used their true intentions to protect their core bodies, but the centipede whipped its tail, slicing their bodies open like a blade.

The four perished as the Blood Bone Centipede King devoured their bodies. After collecting the Poisonous Python and the Python Grass, Su Yan continued swimming deeper into the water with Long Qiushui.

At the bottom of Poison Dragon Lake, there are continuous array patterns that intertwine, seemingly turning the entire lake into a giant Gu basin, with the array controlling everything.

The closer you swim to the center of Poison Dragon Lake, the more you can feel the surging accumulation and intensification of toxic substances.

Meanwhile, the churning poisonous lake was already seven or eight zhang high, making it difficult even for Danqiao Realm martial artists who couldn't fly to move.

Su Yan had seen more than one Danqiao Realm martial artist directly stay in the middle of the lake to fight those Danqiao Realm poisonous beasts and obtain the rare and precious materials on the islands or in the lake.

There are already few body-refining martial artists, and even fewer who can barely reach the deeper levels.

Their choice to search for rare and precious materials here and to comprehend the true meaning of the poisonous dragon hidden in the surrounding area is not without merit.

Su Yan and Long Qiushui were completely different from the others. With the blessing of the Poison Dragon Profound Technique, although they were not exactly like fish in water, they could continuously absorb the surrounding poisonous substances and refine their bodies like a whirlpool in the poisonous water.

With each step forward, their physical bodies strengthened, their blood and qi became more refined, their golden cores became more solid, and their aura continued to grow stronger.

The unusual behavior of the two naturally attracted the attention of many martial artists with the Danqiao skill.

However, very few people dared to take action.

The two were so powerful that they had already overwhelmed many martial artists at the third level of the Heavenly Realm. Even if they knew that the other party had a special opportunity, who would dare to step forward easily?
It's not that there aren't skilled and daring people.

Some rogue cultivators who practiced poison techniques, such as the Scorpion Ancestor of Yanxia Mountain, believed that their poison techniques gave them an advantage in Poison Dragon Lake. They manipulated the poisonous beasts, water scorpions, in the lake to launch sneak attacks from the bottom.

Once inside the Poison Dragon Lake, he used this method to kill countless unsuspecting Danqiao Realm martial artists.

However, this time, as soon as he got close, the Blood Bone Centipede King in the water unleashed its power, churning up the lake and tearing him in two.

As a result, even fewer people dared to cause trouble for the two of them.

Instead, Su Yan and his companion headed straight for Poison Dragon Island in the center of the lake. Those who blocked their path were brutally beaten and their resources were plundered. Su Yan personally fought almost all the battles, concealing his true essence within his body and using his superior physical strength to bombard the attacking poisonous beasts and Dan Qi martial artists, killing them on the spot.

The more the battle raged, the more the venomous dragon at the top of the cave seemed to pay attention to him.

The scattered true meaning gathered together like chains, merging into his body. Resonance began, and the inheritance gradually entered his body in the form of enlightenment.

Although Long Qiushui did not go all out, she also comprehended the true meaning just like Su Yan. In an instant, the spiritual energy of the entire lake and cave faintly gathered around the two of them.

On the island in the middle of the lake, the Poison Dragon lowered its eyes, and at this moment, a great deal of true insight was scattered like strands of light that could be seen with the naked eye.

Nangong Yu had already landed on Poison Dragon Island. He tightly gripped the Dragon Pearl fragment, constantly trying to comprehend the true meaning of the Poison Dragon. His eyes shone brightly as he said, "So this is the true meaning of the Poison Dragon. No wonder he is the number one genius in Lingnan Prefecture for hundreds of years."

Nangong Yu was the first to land on the island, and Yu Lingbo, a swordsman, quickly followed him.

His gaze swept across the area, and his heart tightened. He stared intently at Nangong Yu, who was also refining the scattered Poison Dragon True Meaning at this moment, using the intent of transforming into a dragon to constantly hone his own True Meaning.

However, compared to Nangong Yu, the gains were somewhat less.

Gu Yunshang and Bian Tai'an arrived one after the other. The four of them stood still, and Bian Tai'an said, "The Dragon Pearl is inside the head of the Poison Dragon. How about we all make a move together?"

Bian Tai'an's condition is not very good. Although he has been treated, the time has been too short and he has not had enough time to recover. In addition, the poisonous water of Poison Dragon Lake is corrosive. Even if he can resist it with secret techniques, the price he will have to pay will probably be high.

"That's a good idea of ​​yours."

Nangong Yu sneered, but Bian Tai'an didn't care at all. He just said coldly, "The Dragon Pearl can be divided, but the inheritance cannot. If the people from the Beast King Sect come in, I'm afraid you won't have a chance either."

Upon hearing this, even Yu Lingbo's expression changed slightly.

The demonic path can still act with impunity, but if the inheritance really falls into the hands of Long Qiushui and Su Yan, even if he wants to seize it, it will probably not be so easy to justify his actions in terms of morality and reason.

"Roar"

As he pondered, golden light ignited in the eyes of the Poison Dragon True Meaning, and then the poisonous water in the lake surged into waves, instantly giving rise to three azure-scaled poisonous dragons, each a hundred feet in size.

As soon as they appeared, they stirred up huge waves in the lake, their gaping maws spewing out a rain of poisonous spikes.

"The restrictions have been activated, everyone, please make your move."

The Poisonous Flood Dragon possessed peak third-tier strength, almost on par with them. However, its golden eyes were dull and lifeless, as if bound by chains, clearly indicating that it was a puppet controlled by the Poisonous Dragon's true intent.

Yu Lingbo, with her sharp eyes, immediately noticed that one of the poisonous dragons had grown horns, but unfortunately, its poisonous scales had only undergone half of transformation before its entire body was corroded by toxins.

He slashed with his sword, and the venomous dragon opened its blood-red maw and bit down, the sword light being shattered with a cracking sound.

"The beasts of Poison Dragon Lake all dream of transforming into dragons, but they are not even as good as a single strand of true essence."

Gu Yunshang sighed, and the Ghost-Faced Butterfly flew out, its golden ring directly attacking the other poisonous dragon.

The four of them started to act simultaneously. Just as Bian Tai'an had said, the Dragon Balls could be divided, but the inheritance could not. If they waited any longer, the Beast King Sect would probably arrive.

The four men engaged in a fierce fight, turning the entire Poison Dragon Island upside down.

Although the three venomous dragons were powerful, their minds were controlled, leaving them only with their ferocious instincts to attack them.

Although flying was prohibited in Poison Dragon Lake, preventing Danqiao Realm martial artists from using many of their skills, the four were all combat experts. With their figures shifting and their natal spiritual weapons moving around, they managed to suppress the three-headed poisonous dragon.

The battle was raging fiercely when Su Yan and Long Qiushui arrived riding the waves. From afar, they could see the battle, which resembled a churning sea, with surging true essence and surging spiritual energy.

“Four Heavenly Stars, Three Poisonous Dragons,” Su Yan looked at Long Qiushui: “This Poisonous Dragon is not easy to kill.”

Isn't this the opportunity right now?

Long Qiushui's gaze was firm. It was better to arrive at the right time than to arrive early. At this moment, she saw that the Poison Dragon's true meaning had already materialized and was controlling the Poison Dragon to attack the four of them.

With the four locked in a fierce battle, they had no time to pay attention to the true meaning of the Poison Dragon, which was truly a good opportunity.

"let's go!"

As soon as the Xuan Shuang Tian Centipede appeared, it carried Long Qiushui straight towards the Poison Dragon's True Meaning.

Su Yan followed closely behind, and the Blood Bone Centipede King sped towards the central island like a speedboat cutting through the waves.

"whoosh"

The two moved with incredible speed. Almost the instant they landed on the island, Long Qiushui's Shadow Sun Ring and Frost Moon Ring shot out, as if possessed by a white dragon, heading straight for the Poison Dragon's True Meaning.

"Long Qiushui, how dare you!"

Nangong Yu was furious. Several people were dealing with the poisonous dragon, and Long Qiushui actually dared to steal the fruits of their labor. Was she really courting death?

With one hand suppressing the poisonous dragon, he freed up his other hand and threw a punch straight at Long Qiushui.

The fist strikes were pitch black, as if a great darkness had covered the sky.

Su Yan moved, reached out and pressed down, the Star-Picking Hand condensed in mid-air, starlight flowed, directly enveloping the fist's momentum and dispersing its true essence.

"How dare you get distracted?"

Su Yan threw a punch directly, the Poison Dragon True Meaning attached to the fist intent, like a black dragon emerging from the abyss, fiercely striking Nangong Yu.

Nangong Yu dodged and weaved, displaying incredibly seasoned combat experience. He actually pushed his opponent, the Poisonous Flood Dragon, in front of Su Yan.

bang
The fist strike blasted into the venomous dragon, shattering most of its scales and revealing its bloodied flesh.

Roar

The venomous dragon, in pain, immediately turned and attacked Su Yan. A foul stench filled the air, and poisonous gas swirled around it. Its sharp teeth were covered in emerald-green venom.

Nangong Yu moved swiftly, rushing straight at Su Yan, his fists, as big as sandbags, about to smash Su Yan's head open.

Su Yan sneered and dodged, first avoiding the attack of the poisonous dragon. He then flicked his hand and sent a black shadow flying into the mouth of the poisonous dragon, directly entering its belly.

Nangong Yu arrived in front of Su Yan and, taking advantage of the fact that he had just dodged but couldn't dodge now, punched him in the head.

Su Yan raised his hand and grabbed, and blue scales appeared on his arm, with golden light flowing around them, just like the hand of a Ming King.

He caught Nangong Yu's attack with one hand and retreated rapidly, but he was not injured.

Nangong Yu's eyes widened, feeling as if he had struck Xuan Steel. He was only at the peak of the second level of the Heavenly Realm, so why did he have such a terrifying physical body?
Before he could react, Su Yan threw a punch. With one hand grabbed, Nangong Yu's dodge was much slower, so he could only throw a punch.

The two exchanged a punch, which resounded like thunder, and their bodies were pushed back, their true energy surging within them.

Gu Yunshang shunned her opponent and pounced directly towards the Poison Dragon's True Meaning.

Just then, Su Yan raised her hand and pointed, and the Devouring Soldier Netherworld Moth and the Blood Bone Centipede King blocked her way.

puff
A sound of flesh being torn apart rang out, and the venomous dragon rolled on the ground, unable to launch an attack. The sound of gnawing came from its abdomen. In an instant, sharp shin-shaped sickles cut through the venomous dragon's body, and a large amount of flesh was continuously drained and flowed into its body.

Everyone was quite frightened by the strange phenomenon when suddenly a dragon's roar came from the body of the poisonous dragon.
