Chen Guan was somewhat interested in the secret rules of the Golden Serpent, and at first glance, he thought that the secret rules of the Golden Serpent had been reduced in size.

A typical sand snake can kill anything within seven steps, but the "five-step kill" seems to only be five steps away.

A closer look reveals that they are completely different things. "Seven steps without killing" means that the opponent can be poisoned within seven steps, while "five steps to kill" does not refer to a range, but rather to the fact that within the range of the Golden Serpent's secret law, you absolutely cannot step out of five steps, otherwise you will die from the poison on the spot.

Of course, five steps is just a concept; you don't actually have to take five steps. Whether you take them or not, if you move a distance that is more than five times your stride or body length, you will be poisoned.

However, if you stand still, you will not die from the poison.

However, this five-step kill has no warning signs and its range is much larger than the seven-step kill.

The "Seven Steps Without Killing" technique can only poison someone within seven steps, while the "Five Steps to Kill" technique can directly poison someone as long as the secret law can reach them.

The current range of the Five-Step Killing Secret Law is about one kilometer. Once the Golden Serpent activates the Five-Step Killing Secret Law, anyone within that range who moves more than five times their own distance will die instantly from the poison.

Moreover, attacks from five steps away are also ineffective against the golden snake.

This thing is much more powerful than a regular sand snake. A regular sand snake requires close-range attacks, while this thing can attack from a distance over a wide area. They are not even in the same league.

However, it also consumes a lot of vital energy. Even when the Golden Serpent's vital energy is fully charged, it still needs to activate its natal star, and can only maintain the Five-Step Killing Secret Law for less than twenty seconds.

"This is a great item. With this golden snake, I can kill spirits from a distance without having to go through all that trouble," Chen Guan thought to himself.

However, this also served as a reminder to him that the Great Cave Heaven was indeed fraught with danger, and the chances of an ordinary cultivator surviving here were extremely low.

Like this five-step kill, most people wouldn't even realize what's going on before being poisoned to death by the golden snake.

Only by having a pet like an insect can one be at ease when facing a golden snake.

However, the insect is not omnipotent. She is indeed invincible against poison-type mystic spirits, but she may be killed if she encounters other types of mystic spirits.

Chen Guan became even more cautious afterward. Fortunately, the golden snake led the way, and wherever it passed, the secret spirits that could be poisoned were basically doomed.

"Invulnerability to all laws is still the way to go in the Great Cave Heaven!" Chen Guan sighed inwardly as he looked at the sand snakes, sand scorpions, and giant venomous centipedes that had been poisoned by the golden snake along the way.

However, Chongchong was very dissatisfied with the Golden Serpent's actions. All the poisonous spirits were killed by the Golden Serpent. Where was she supposed to level up?
Chen Guan had no choice but to put the golden snake away and let the insects continue to kill poison-type spirits to level up.

This sand dune is enormous, and its main inhabitants are sand snakes, sand scorpions, giant centipedes, poisonous lizards, and poisonous frogs, among others.

The poison lizard was somewhat different from the magic lizard Chen Guan had seen. The magic lizard was much larger, while the poison lizard was at most about the size of a crocodile.

Apart from the family of lizards he had seen before, Chen Guan had not seen any of the same species here.

These poison-type spirits are all at the seventh awakening level, ranging from level 61 to 70, and most of them are rare and uncommon.

The sand snake's main secret is the Seven Steps Without Killing, the sand scorpion's is the Deadly Poison Sting, the giant centipede's is the Deadly Poison Mark, and the poison lizard's is the Domain of Extreme Poison. The poison frog's secret is rather strange, because it has nothing to do with poison; it's a silent secret.

When the Poison Frog activates its secret law, all sounds within the law's range are silenced, and no one can make a sound.

Among the mystical spirits in the sand dunes, the poisonous frog is the weakest in combat, and even the other mystical spirits regard it as a tonic.

The strongest is not the Sand Snake, but the Sand Scorpion.

The Sand Scorpion's Deadly Sting Secret is extremely powerful; it's a secret that guarantees a hit.

When the Sand Scorpion uses the Deadly Sting Secret Law, it will always hit its target.

If you can't withstand its toxicity, you'll be poisoned to death on the spot.

However, the range of the Deathly Poison Sting Secret Law is relatively small, less than ten meters. As long as you don't get close to it, the Deathly Poison Sting is useless.

Of course, if you are physically strong enough or have immunity to the poison, you can simply tough it out.

The insect absorbed various toxins, and its level kept increasing. It ate a lot of corpses and sucked a lot of blood from rouge and ghost eyes, but it still couldn't reach the seventh awakening.

Theoretically, the corpses of the Seventh Awakening Spirits should be a great tonic for them. The reason they haven't been able to advance is not because they lack energy, but because they haven't yet had the burst of inspiration and need a trigger to reach the Seventh Awakening.

When they encountered the poisonous frog again, Chen Guan told Chongchong to rest first and sent Rouge into battle.

Chen Guan estimated that Rouge would only be able to advance to the seventh level of awakening when she fights on her own.

Rouge's combat ability is still quite good. Although she is only level 60 and does not have any secrets, she can easily defeat a useless Poison Frog in just a few hits.

Seeing that the poisonous frog posed no challenge, Chen Guan chose a giant centipede, which was easier to deal with, to fight.

The giant centipede's secret law is the Deadly Poison Scar; wherever it crawls, you will be poisoned.

Therefore, when killing a giant centipede, it's best to kill it with one strike. Otherwise, it will crawl around everywhere, and you might just walk right past it and get killed on the spot.

This thing is a nightmare for ordinary cultivators, because you can't see where it crawls, and you'll get poisoned if you walk by.

The giant centipede loves to kill its enemies in this way. When it sees someone coming, it quietly activates its secret law to escape. If the person behind it is unaware of its ability, they will be poisoned if they chase after it.

With the insects around, the giant centipede has little room to maneuver; the insects' clothes change color when exposed to poison.

Moreover, it changes color depending on the type of poison it encounters.

The venom of sand scorpions can turn insects' clothes purple, while the venom of giant centipedes can turn insects' clothes gray, and so on.

The stronger the toxicity, the more vibrant the colors of the insect's clothing will become, essentially making it a large-scale disguised poison testing device.

Rouge didn't have that ability, but fortunately, the giant centipede's venom was much milder than that of the sand scorpion and sand snake, so it wouldn't kill her immediately.

Especially for someone with a mysterious constitution like Rouge, it's not so easy to be poisoned to death.

Moreover, there are insects nearby, so any poisoning can be treated at any time.

Rouge chased after the giant centipede, but the centipede turned and ran away. Rouge, who had no experience, immediately gave chase and was soon poisoned.

To the naked eye, its white fur, tinged with pink, faintly exudes a grayish hue.

Even so, Rouge stubbornly chased after it, leaped up, and used the butcher's knife to cut the giant centipede in half.

Just as Chen Guan was about to call Rouge back so that Chongchong could detoxify her, he saw many giant centipedes crawling out and surrounding Rouge.
