Under One Person: Please Call Me Golden Flash

Chapter 412 The Second Solution to Dan Shi?

As Xu Xin finished speaking, his originally hunched body gradually straightened up a bit under the dim light of the oil lamp.

Those cloudy eyes suddenly flashed with a sharp light, as if a sleeping venomous snake had raised its head and locked onto its prey.

The already cold and heavy air inside the Tang Tomb Stone Chamber became even more stagnant, like lead. An invisible killing intent spread silently like a tangible spider web, so thick it was suffocating.

Yang Lie frowned and slowly took a few steps back, giving the space to the two people in the arena.

His eyes held a complex expression, containing both disapproval of Xu Xin's rash challenge and a hidden expectation, unnoticed even by himself, that the Tang Clan's "Invincible Pill Devouring Technique" could be proven once again in front of Zhao Zhen.

Lu Huizhong leaned against the cold stone wall, her arms crossed, her eyes sharp as knives, watching Zhao Zhen's every subtle movement.

"Brother Zhao, be careful."

Xu Xin’s hoarse voice rang out, no longer showing any trace of his previous dejection.

His hands hung naturally at his sides, his fingertips trembling almost imperceptibly. It wasn't fear, but rather a sign that his innate vital energy was surging, compressing, and condensing into a single point within his body.

The next moment, an indescribable "Qi sensation" emanated from his body.

It wasn't immense pressure, but rather an extreme sense of "emptiness" and "nothingness," as if an absolute domain had formed in front of him, devouring everything.

This is the essence of Tangmen Dan Shi: perfectly fusing one's own evil thoughts, killing intent, deadly poison, and pure Qi, condensing them into an invisible and intangible, yet all-pervasive, and incurable poison!

Zhao Zhen remained standing in the same spot, his faded coarse cloth clothes motionless in the gentle breeze of the mountainside.

Faced with that chilling sense of "emptiness," his face remained completely expressionless.

His eyes were calm and gentle, like a deep well reflecting the flickering lights, clearly showing Xu Xin's poised and ready posture.

Xu Xin had naturally heard Yang Lie mention how Zhao Zhen had broken Yang Lie's Dan Shi technique back then.

First, he covered himself with protective true qi. Then, the moment Yang Lie's Dan Shi came into contact with the protective true qi, he used his unique skill, Golden Escape Flowing Light, to transfer the protective true qi along with Dan Shi away.

This method sounds simple, but in practice it is extremely difficult.

Not to mention that Dan Shi is colorless, odorless, and formless, it would take a great deal of mental and physical effort to transfer it away with the Golden Escape Flowing Light the moment the protective true qi comes into contact with Dan Shi.

In Xu Xin's view, Yang Lie's Dan Shi skills back then were just beginning, and in terms of both quantity and scope, they were far inferior to his own now.

After all, even though they are all cultivating Dan Shi (丹噬), the form and effect of Dan Shi after success vary from person to person, such as the number of Dan Shi, the distance, and so on.

For example, Tang Bingwen, the head of the Tang Sect, has a "sniper rifle" type of Dan Shi. Although the number of them is small, they can be precisely controlled from a distance.

Tang Jiaren, known as "Laughing Yama," is a "shotgun type," capable of firing large quantities of bullets, but limited to a range of only twenty paces.

Unlike Xu Xin, his Dan Shi is an "all-rounder," meaning it combines all the characteristics of Dan Shi!
Both in terms of quantity and distance, they far surpassed Yang Lie's achievements back then!
This is why he was so confident that his Dan Shi level was definitely far superior to Yang Lie's.

Therefore, Xu Xin was not worried that Zhao Zhen would use the same method he used to deal with Yang Lie to deal with his Dan Shi.

The difficulty of transferring one pill is incomparable to transferring dozens or hundreds of pills!

As long as he manipulates Dan Shi fast enough and his technique is precise enough, he can successfully break through Zhao Zhen's defenses while Zhao Zhen is using Golden Escape Flowing Light and rearranging his protective True Qi!

This is why Xu Xin dared to challenge Zhao Zhen even though he knew Zhao Zhen had a way to break the Dan Shi! Xu Xin had already rehearsed this battle countless times in his mind, but when he saw that Zhao Zhen had not released his protective true qi for a long time, a hint of doubt flashed in his eyes.

"Brother Zhao, aren't you going to release your protective true qi?"

Xu Xin couldn't help but ask.

Without protective true qi, how could he sense and transfer his own Dan Shi (a type of internal energy)?
"Need not."

Zhao Zhen shook his head calmly.

Upon hearing this, not only Xu Xin on the other side, but also Yang Lie beside him had their pupils shrink sharply.

Not even using protective Qi?

Isn't Zhao Zhen being far too arrogant?
Was he simply incredibly confident in his own strength, or did he never even look down on the Dan Shi of the Tang Clan?
Regardless of the reason, Xu Xin felt that he was truly being looked down upon!
Thinking of this, Xu Xin immediately let out a short, low growl.

"In that case, Brother Zhao, I'll go!"

I want to see how you can deal with my Pill Devouring without using Protective True Qi and Golden Escape Flowing Light!

The next moment, Xu Xin moved!

There were no dazzling movements, not even any obvious gestures.

But then his cloudy yet sharp as a hawk's eyes snapped open!
At the same time, on a level that no one could "see," dozens of "Qi Poisons" composed entirely of "nothingness" and condensed to the extreme ignored the distance of space and, as if teleporting, shot silently yet deadly towards various parts of Zhao Zhen's body!
They did not rush forward in a straight line, but under Xu Xin's control, they twisted, entangled, and blocked in a mysterious trajectory, as if an invisible spider web woven by death was covering them.

This is the terror of Dan Shi!
Formless and without shape, without trace, it can only be "perceived" with life, and the moment of perception is often the moment death arrives!
Xu Xin has been immersed in alchemy for decades, and his refinement, speed, concealment, and toxicity are indeed far superior to Yang Lie's back then!
It is not only faster and more stealthy, but its coverage and exquisite control are also unbelievable, almost sealing off all of Zhao Zhen's evasive angles.

However, just as Dan Shi was about to touch the hem of Zhao Zhen's clothes, Zhao Zhen's body finally moved.

His movements didn't seem fast; in fact, they carried a leisurely, unhurried air.

There was no earth-shattering momentum, nor the dazzling golden light of the Golden Escape technique.

He simply and naturally, as if brushing dust off his shoulders, shifted his body slightly, to the side, and leaned back with an almost imperceptible movement.

Every movement was so precise that it grazed the edges of each "danshi" with exquisite skill.

The poisonous energy that could kill anyone who touched it instantly didn't even touch a single hem of his clothes!

"impossible!"

Yang Lie's pupils constricted sharply, and his heart almost stopped beating.

Although he couldn't see the form of Dan Shi, as one of its controllers, he clearly sensed that Xu Xin's exquisite Qi poison trajectory had been completely avoided by Zhao Zhen in an inconceivable way!
This was even more shocking and unbelievable to Yang Lie than when Zhao Zhen used the Golden Escape Flowing Light to transfer his Dan Shi back then.

Using protective true qi in combination with the golden escape technique for teleportation is understandable, indicating that although Zhao Zhen was strong back then, he still could not sense or observe the existence of Dan Shi.

The fact that Zhao Zhen could dodge so easily meant that his understanding and perception of Dan Shi had reached a terrifying level that he could not even imagine!
This person was actually able to detect the existence of Dan Shi simply by sensing it?!

How can this be? ! !
