Wuxia Across the Heavens: I Collect Side Effects

Yang Xiao fell into deep thought, beginning to consider the future of the Ming Cult.

He subconsciously thought of Xie Xun, the Golden Lion King. Xie Xun was highly skilled in martial arts and had a very high reputation in the Ming Cult. If he could find him, he would surely be able to rebuild the Ming Cult.

But he knew in his heart that they had searched for Xie Xun all these years, but Xie Xun seemed to have vanished into thin air, leaving no trace and no one knowing his whereabouts.

Fan Yao is in the same boat; he's now completely out of contact, his fate unknown, and there's no one to rely on him.

Dai Qisi, the Purple-Robed Dragon King, had already broken with the Ming Cult because of the matter of the cult leader Yang Dingtian and had left the Ming Cult. She probably only harbored hatred towards the Ming Cult and would never return to help them.

"White-browed Eagle King Yin Tianzheng!" A glint suddenly flashed in Yang Xiao's eyes, and he slapped his thigh hard.

How could he forget Yin Tianzheng? As one of the four great protectors of the Ming Cult, Yin Tianzheng possessed superb martial arts skills and high prestige. He always put the overall situation first. Although he had left the Ming Cult and started his own sect due to ideological differences, he was still a former member of the Ming Cult and still had some affection for it.

He knew even better about Yin Tianzheng's feelings for the Ming Cult.

Now, only by inviting Yin Tianzheng back can the Five Wanderers be subdued, the Ming Cult's order be restored, and the Ming Cult be freed from its current predicament.

Because of this incident, he had to step back from the limelight.

Thinking of this, the confusion in Yang Xiao's eyes gradually faded, replaced by determination.

He took a deep breath, suppressed his injuries, and with a swift movement, transformed into a blur, rushing towards the direction of the Sky Eagle Sect.

The Ming Cult cannot collapse like this; he must make a decisive move to invite Yin Tianzheng back.

The Ming Cult really can't afford to cause any more trouble!

But before that, I need to have a proper talk with Yin Tian.

Inside the Kunlun Secret Realm, Su Xin continued to cultivate diligently, honing his inner strength while awaiting news of Su Ying's cultivation of the poisonous spiders.

Yin Li diligently cultivated the Nine Yang Divine Skill day after day, his internal strength gradually becoming more and more profound, and the day he achieved mastery was getting closer and closer.

The most important thing is that you can only practice other martial arts after you have reached a high level of mastery.

That's what motivates her!

People who have been bullied since childhood tend to have a strong admiration for strength.

Time flies, and two months have passed in the blink of an eye.

On the open ground of the Kunlun Secret Realm, Su Xin slowly took a deep breath, his gaze solemnly falling on the five brocade boxes lined up in front of him. His fingertips gently brushed the lids of the boxes, his eyes full of anticipation.

These five brocade boxes contain, respectively, a five-colored snow spider, a ghost-faced spider, a red-banded spider, a golden-threaded spider, and a snow mountain jade spider.

It was these five poisonous spiders that he had painstakingly collected that formed the core foundation for cultivating the Five Poisons Primordial Chaos.

Su Xin has been busy for the past month.

While waiting for Su Ying to cultivate the poisonous spiders, he accidentally discovered that the Five Poisons Mixed Yuan technique was accompanied by detailed annotations, which should be the core principles of the "Wang Nangu Poison Scripture".

Therefore, he devoted himself to studying the core principles of the "Wang Nangu Poison Classic," pondering it day and night, and gradually gained a deeper understanding of the Five Poisons Mixed Origin.

According to records, the toxins contained in these five types of venomous spiders correspond to five distinct and highly toxic substances:

The five-colored snow spider's cold poison, the red-banded spider's fire poison, the ghost-faced spider's neurotoxin, the golden-threaded spider's bone-rotting poison, and the snow mountain jade spider's hallucinogenic poison.

These five toxins, though seemingly independent, actually conceal a hidden mechanism.

By combining the annotations to the Poison Classic with his own insights into martial arts, Su Xin gradually made new discoveries:

These five poisons actually correspond to the five elements of metal, wood, water, fire, and earth in the universe, and even more so to the five internal organs of the human body.

Fire poison corresponds to fire, which is associated with "rising upwards" and symbolizes heat, rising and restlessness. In the human body, it corresponds to the heart.

Cold toxin corresponds to water, and is associated with coldness, moisture, and storage; it also corresponds to the kidneys.

The poison of rotting bones corresponds to metal, which represents "transformation" and symbolizes killing, hardness, and restraint, corresponding to the bones and lungs of the human body;

Neurotoxins correspond to wood, which governs growth, development, and smooth flow, and correspond to the liver and tendons (nervous system).

The Illusionary Poison corresponds to Earth, which governs life, transformation, bearing, and receiving. It is located in the center and corresponds to the spleen and stomach, as well as thoughts and intentions.

"So that's how it is. The five poisons correspond to the five elements, and the five elements correspond to the five internal organs." Su Xin muttered to himself, a hint of sudden realization flashing in his eyes. "In this way, I can freely adjust the proportions of the five poisons and fuse them to create different deadly poisons. This is the true meaning of the word 'Hun Yuan' in the Five Poisons Hun Yuan."

He then remembered that the five fingers correspond to the five internal organs: heart, liver, spleen, lungs, and kidneys. A thought suddenly occurred to him:

If you place your fingers into the brocade box in the order corresponding to the five internal organs, you might be able to activate the venom of the five poisonous spiders and gain extra benefits.

Having made up his mind, Su Xin no longer hesitated and, following the order of heart, liver, spleen, lungs, and kidneys, inserted his five fingers into the five brocade boxes one by one.

The moment his fingertips touched the venomous spiders, the five types of spiders clung to him, slowly sucking the essence and blood from his fingertips while gradually injecting their own toxins into his body.

Su Xin endured the slight stinging pain in his fingertips and immediately activated the Five Poisons Mixed Yuan Technique.

An extremely potent toxin instantly surged into the body from the fingertips, with five distinct toxins circulating through the meridians.

He should have been in pain, but the system seemed rather pleased with him.

But with an unchanged expression, he guided the five poisons to slowly merge in the order of mutual generation and mutual restraint of the five elements.

Miracles gradually occurred. The five toxins, which were originally clashing fiercely and incompatible, gradually calmed down under the guidance of the technique, like a docile kitten, no longer acting recklessly.

However, the fused toxins became "ordinary".

The originally colorful and pungent poison, after being fused, compressed, and purified, completely lost all its appearance, losing its color, odor, and hideous form.

The thousands of conflicting and raging toxins in the body are forcibly compressed and purified, eventually becoming more subtle and mellow.

"Great poison is invisible, great sound is silent." A flash of understanding appeared in Su Xin's eyes as he murmured to himself.

The fused Five Poisons appear ordinary, but in reality, they harbor deadly intent. They have lost all outward appearances and remain hidden. Even if others fight with them, they will only think that they are using ordinary internal energy and will not be able to detect the presence of the deadly poison.

He carefully sensed the changes within his body and discovered that this mixture of five poisons did not increase the total amount of his internal energy, but it could greatly improve the quality of his internal energy, making the originally mixed internal energy more refined and domineering.

This precisely addresses the biggest weakness of the Thousand Spider Poison Hand technique.

In the past, when practicing the Thousand Spider Poison Hand, the toxins were numerous but not refined, making it easy for them to backfire. However, the Five Poisons Mixed Yuan technique solves this problem at its root, allowing the deadly poisons to be truly used for one's own benefit.

"As expected of Wang Nangu, she has such insight, able to perfect the Thousand Spider Poison Hand from its root." Su Xin sincerely praised her, slowly ending his practice and withdrawing his fingers.

At this moment, his aura seemed calm, but it concealed a deadly killing intent. With his Thousand Spider Poison Hand, he finally took a crucial step and successfully entered the fourth level.

Not far away, Su Ying slowly walked over. Looking at Su Xin, a hint of approval flashed in her eyes: "It seems that you have grasped the true meaning of the Five Poisons Mixed Origin. You have not failed my training over the past month."

Su Xin turned around, nodded slightly, and smiled: "Thanks to my aunt for cultivating the poisonous spiders, and thanks to Wang Nangu's annotations, otherwise, I would not have been able to grasp the mystery so quickly."

Meanwhile, in the martial arts world, Yang Xiao had already traveled day and night to find Yin Tianzheng, the White-browed Eagle King.
