Chapter 564 Refreshes My Worldview (5000 words + 2200 monthly votes bonus chapter)

Ye Liuyun did not act immediately, but waited for the poisonous dragon to completely relax its guard before taking action. At the same time, he quickly estimated how fast and how long it would take him to fly to the other side of the lake, because this was a one-time opportunity. If he failed and the poisonous dragon noticed in time, he would probably be in big trouble.

"Master, is this guy already asleep?" Ye Liuyun asked in his mind.

About three minutes later, Lin Qingyou finally answered Ye Liuyun.

"That's about enough. The green snake is completely asleep now. You can proceed."

Ye Liuyun had been waiting for this opportunity. She took a deep breath, looked towards the end of the lake, and finally leaped into the air, flying at top speed towards the platform where the Ten Thousand Poisons Palace was located.

Du Jiao is still completely unaware. He had been waiting for someone to attempt the challenge because he had sensed it. Ye Liuyun, on the other hand, was unaware of what obstacles lay ahead and was certain to encounter Du Jiao.

In just a few seconds, Ye Liuyun landed safely on the platform in the area where the Ten Thousand Poisons Palace was located. Upon landing, Ye Liuyun seemed to have triggered some kind of array restriction, and the platform where the Ten Thousand Poisons Palace was located immediately lit up, which alerted the poisonous dragon at the bottom of the lake.

"What?" The Poison Dragon immediately emerged from the lake and looked at the location of the Ten Thousand Poisons Palace after sensing that someone had arrived at the Ten Thousand Poisons Palace platform. Upon looking, it discovered that the protective formation there had been activated.

Poisonous Dragon immediately realized that he had been deceived by Ye Liuyun. Ye Liuyun was not dead at all, but had used some means to pretend to be dead to fool him.

"Damn it, you wretched brat, how dare you play me?" Poison Dragon roared angrily.

Once Ye Liuyun was sure he was safe, he chuckled and deactivated his invisibility, then looked at the poisonous dragon in the lake behind him.

"Hahaha, Green Snake, you were careless. What, you're not convinced? If you're not convinced, come and hit me!" Ye Liuyun laughed mockingly.

Enraged by these words, the venomous dragon immediately flew towards the location of the Ten Thousand Poisons Palace and then spat out an even more potent stream of venom at the array surrounding the platform.

Unfortunately, this platform is specifically designed to protect the disciples of the Ten Thousand Poison Valley after they have cleared the level, and its defensive capabilities are definitely superior to those of the Poison Dragon.

After the venomous dragon finished attacking the formation, a fierce purple light immediately reflected from the formation and struck the venomous dragon. The venomous dragon was immediately struck and spat out a mouthful of demonic blood, letting out a mournful cry before falling into the poisonous lake.

Most of the cultivators from the Valley of Ten Thousand Poisons outside had already moved far away from the entrance to the Palace of Ten Thousand Poisons Trial; only Granny Jin Hua and Xiang Ling remained.

"Little girl, why aren't you leaving yet? What, is this dead guy your friend?" Granny Jin Hua was originally planning to return to her own residence, but seeing Xiang Ling sitting there slumped over, she couldn't help but ask.

Xiangling nodded sadly.

"She is my good older sister, named Shi Youlan. She entered the sect before me. I am so grateful to Sister Youlan for taking care of me all these years. I never expected that she would actually... alas!" Xiangling said sadly.

Seeing this, Granny Jinhua couldn't help but sigh.

"I tried to persuade her before, but seeing how determined she was, I agreed to her request. To be honest, your sister is really amazing. She passed the first eight levels without relying on her own strength, and in less than half a day, she has already broken our Wan Du Valley record."

"As for the ninth level, that's also my problem. This poisonous dragon has actually exceeded the current limit that the disciples of the Ten Thousand Poisons Valley can reach. It has the combat power of the Transformation Realm, and it is also a primordial exotic species. My previous methods were useless against it, which is why I failed."

"I'll go back inside later and move this poisonous dragon away. It's no longer suitable for him to stay here," Granny Jin Hua said.

But no sooner had Granny Jin Hua finished speaking than a beam of purple light shot into the sky from the back of the Valley of Ten Thousand Poisons, startling the cultivators of the Valley of Ten Thousand Poisons once again.

Especially Granny Jin Hua.

"This? How is this possible?" Granny Jin Hua immediately opened the Xuan Guang Mirror again. The scene inside left her dumbfounded. She saw that Ye Liuyun had arrived at the entrance of the Wan Du Palace. The purple light she had just seen was the restrictive energy generated by her touching the Wan Du Palace.

Xiangling was also startled by the sudden energy, but when she looked at the Xuan Guang Mirror again, she jumped up.

"Oh my god, Sister Youlan is still alive! She didn't die!" Xiangling exclaimed in surprise.

Those cultivators who had left were all astonished when they noticed the commotion behind them, and they immediately ran back towards the Ten Thousand Poisons Palace.

"What? What happened? How did this little girl come back to life and even arrive at the Palace of Ten Thousand Poisons? What happened to Master just now?" Liu Qianmei rushed back to the entrance of the cave and asked Granny Jin Hua.

Granny Jin Hua was completely numb, and her mouth twitched uncontrollably.

"This...this works too? I just used the power of the formation to check the image and found that she pretended to be dead to deceive the poisonous dragon, and then took advantage of the unicorn's inattention to fly across the lake and arrive at the Ten Thousand Poisons Palace." Granny Jin Hua naturally saw how Ye Liuyun broke through the barrier.

That's just speechless.

"What? Master, are you saying that this little girl was pretending to be dead just now, and actually hid? Where did she hide?" Liu Qianmei and the others were confused by Granny Jinhua's words.

Granny Jin Hua felt like vomiting blood. This wasn't a challenge; it was child's play. The worst part was that others had actually succeeded, making them look incredibly foolish.

"I don't know, but it's probably some kind of invisibility technique, and one that can even fool the poisonous dragon. This little girl is so cunning. She knows she can't pass the level on her own, so she used these random tricks." Granny Jin Hua's face was ashen.

Although the cultivators of the Gu God Domain do not discriminate against cultivators who use skills, Ye Liuyun relied entirely on some inexplicable techniques to reach the finish line in this serious test, which has broken all the records of the Ten Thousand Poison Valley and also refreshed their understanding.

Ye Liuyun opened the gate of the Ten Thousand Poisons Palace. The Ten Thousand Poisons Palace looked like an ordinary palace, nothing special. The light inside was bright, and there were no other dangers. There were sculptures on both sides, all of them female statues. These should be the valley masters of the Ten Thousand Poisons Valley in the past.

The sculpture of Liu Qianmei is also here. As for the sculpture of the beautiful woman before Liu Qianmei, it should be the current Granny Jinhua. This should be what she looked like when she was young. You have to admit, you can tell just by looking at the sculpture that Granny Jinhua was definitely a great beauty when she was young. It's just a pity that time waits for no one, and now she has become such a thin and short old woman.

Ye Liuyun continued forward until he reached the end, where there was a platform with a seven-colored glass pearl and a restricted cultivation manual on it.

These should be the Hundred Poisons Divine Pearl and the Myriad Poisons Manual.

The Hundred Poisons Divine Pearl is a reward given by the Valley of Ten Thousand Poisons to disciples who successfully complete the challenge. It is a top-grade Earth-rank magic weapon specially designed to complement the Valley of Ten Thousand Poisons' cultivation techniques.

The Ten Thousand Poisons Manual is the most advanced cultivation technique of the Ten Thousand Poisons Valley. It is a Nirvana Secret Technique, and as long as the disciple has sufficient comprehension, it is enough to cultivate to the Nirvana Secret Realm.

This is the highest reward that Wan Du Gu can offer, bar none.

Ye Liuyun stepped forward and took the item down.

"Tsk tsk, this should be a top-grade Earth-rank magic weapon, not bad. As for this cultivation technique, let me see if I can refine it." Ye Liuyun opened the Myriad Poisons Manual and glanced at it a few times.

Upon closer inspection, Ye Liuyun discovered something new.

"Oh my, this is interesting, Master. This technique is quite good. It can completely detach itself from spiritual energy and create a vortex of poisonous gas within the body. Then, it can absorb all kinds of toxins and store them in the vortex, using them when needed." Ye Liuyun smiled after seeing this technique.

“It is indeed interesting, but it’s not very useful to you. It can only be used when you’re disguising your identity, so it’s not entirely useless,” Lin Qingyou said.

But just then, Lin Qingyou suddenly glanced at a certain spot and quickly reminded Ye Liuyun.

“The old woman outside has arrived.”

As soon as she said this, Granny Jin Hua flew into the main hall and landed behind Ye Liuyun.

When Ye Liuyun noticed that Granny Jinhua had arrived, he turned around with some concern and looked at her with a smile.

"Greetings, senior. I was fortunate enough to make it to the end and have obtained the Hundred Poisons Divine Pearl and the Myriad Poisons Manual," Ye Liuyun said, bowing to Granny Jin Hua.

Granny Jin Hua stared sharply at Ye Liuyun, as if she were investigating him, but no matter how she looked at him, she couldn't see anything wrong with the girl in front of her.

"Good luck? Little girl, are you mocking this old woman?" Granny Jin Hua asked speechlessly.

Upon hearing this, Ye Liuyun knew what Granny Jin Hua meant, but she had already come up with a strategy. After all, she possessed Shi Youlan's complete memories, so it wouldn't be difficult for her to fabricate a lie.

"Senior, you must be wondering why I cleared it so easily. That's because I read about how others cleared it back then, and I also know that the valley won't modify the levels if no one has cleared them. In addition, during my time fighting against cultivators from the Nine Heavens Domain in the Tianlan Mountains, I unexpectedly obtained quite a few strange magical treasures from them."

"After returning this time, I summarized my experiences and looked at the strange things I had acquired. I finally realized that these things might help me pass the Ten Thousand Poisons Palace Trial, so I mustered up the courage to come and try it," Ye Liuyun explained.

However, Granny Jin Hua was a shrewd person. Ye Liuyun's explanation seemed flawless, and she couldn't find any fault with it. But the problem was that she felt the explanation was too perfect, as if it had been prepared in advance.

"Hehe, little girl, your explanation is quite perfect," Granny Jin Hua chuckled strangely.

Ye Liuyun's heart skipped a beat.

Fortunately, Granny Jinhua didn't intend to ask any further questions.

"Alright, I won't waste my breath on you. Everyone has their own secrets. We cultivators of the Gu God Domain don't like to ask about the process, we only like to see the result. The result is that you've passed the test. Since you've passed the test, from this moment on, you'll be our Wan Du Valley's direct disciple. Let's go, come with me." Granny Jin Hua used a force to envelop Ye Liuyun and carried her out of the Wan Du Palace.

Just as he passed by the poisonous lake, the venomous dragon was glaring angrily at Ye Liuyun.

Ye Liuyun chuckled, then suddenly had an idea.

"Senior, could you please grant me this venomous dragon as a pet?" Ye Liuyun asked with a smile.

When Granny Jin Hua heard this, she almost fainted and fell from the sky.

She stopped abruptly, first looking at the poisonous dragon below, and then at Ye Liuyun.

"Little girl, did I hear that right? You want this venomous dragon as a pet? I'm very curious, what makes you think I would give you this venomous dragon? Do you know that this venomous dragon is a rare species from the primordial era?" Granny Jin Hua asked.

Ye Liuyun immediately coughed a few times.

"Ahem, I... I was just saying. If you don't want to, then... then forget it," Ye Liuyun said awkwardly.

When Granny Jin Hua saw Ye Liuyun's appearance, she was furious.

"You brat, I've never seen such an arrogant Dao Palace disciple. First you took my Netherworld Vine, then you killed so many of my Four Extremes Secret Realm Poison People, and then you killed several of my Poisonous Beasts. And you still dare to ask me for the Poisonous Dragon? I'm being lenient by not asking you to return my Netherworld Vine to me." Granny Jin Hua complained repeatedly.

In previous years, disciples rarely chose to confront these things head-on, as the losses were minimal. However, Ye Liuyun's actions this time rendered her unable to complete the later stages of the challenge.

"This? But you didn't say we can't kill these guys. Besides, my strength is so weak. If I don't use some tricks to kill them, how am I supposed to get over here?" Ye Liuyun said weakly.

Granny Jin Hua was once again rendered speechless by the rebuttal.

"You? Sigh! Never mind, never mind. Anyway, you've cleared the level. I'll definitely have to readjust these levels, and this poisonous dragon will have to be moved too. Consider it your reward for clearing the level." After saying that, Granny Jin Hua didn't care whether the poisonous dragon was willing or not, and reached out to grab it.

"Hey? Old woman, what do you want to do? Let me go!" The venomous dragon immediately struggled.

Unfortunately, in front of Granny Jin Hua, this poisonous dragon was like a harmless little snake, unable to harm a single hair on her head.

Under the suppression of Granny Golden Flower's power, the venomous dragon's body rapidly shrank, eventually turning into a small green snake that fell into her hands.

"Take it." Granny Jin Hua tossed the poisonous dragon to Ye Liuyun.

Ye Liuyun quickly caught it, and the power of the poisonous dragon was temporarily sealed. It was struggling in Ye Liuyun's hand, but no matter how hard it struggled, it was useless.

"Haha, thank you for the gift, senior." Ye Liuyun chuckled as he tossed the venomous dragon into his pet pouch.

Black Bull and Tassel, who were chatting inside the pet pouch, suddenly noticed something coming in from above and landing right on Black Bull's head.

"Huh? What's this?" Black Bull shook his donkey head and threw the thing off. After it fell off, they realized it was a green snake.

The humanoid tassel casually grabbed the green snake.

"A demonic beast? Is it a new pet that Master has acquired? What level of demonic beast is it? It seems stronger than us." Liu Su grabbed the tail of the poisonous dragon and examined it carefully.

The venomous dragon was also startled by the black ox and tassels inside. She didn't expect that Ye Liuyun would have two peak-level demonic beasts on him.

"You two brats, release me now, or you'll regret it when I break the power seal!" the Poisonous Dragon roared.

Liu Su and Hei Niu exchanged a glance. Anyone stronger than them must be at the Fourth Extreme Secret Realm, but Ye Liuyun already had two demonic beast pets at the peak of the Mysterious Transformation Realm, so they were already used to it.

"Tch! It's just a monster from the Four Extremes Secret Realm, Sister Liusu. Why don't we eat it? Maybe we can break through to the Four Extremes Secret Realm right away after we eat it." Seeing how arrogant the green snake was, Black Bull decided to teach it a lesson and show it the importance of first come, first served.

"Don't you not eat meat?" Liu Su asked with a surprised look.

"Not eating meat doesn't mean you can't eat meat," Black Bull said calmly.

After hearing this, Liusu tossed the poisonous dragon towards the black ox, who immediately opened its donkey mouth and swallowed the dragon whole.

"Ah... Help! Don't eat me! Don't eat me!" The venomous dragon screamed as soon as it was swallowed by the black bull. As it screamed, its voice suddenly turned into a woman's voice.

Hei Niu was stunned for a moment when she heard the sounds from the woman in her belly. Then, she suddenly felt a bitter taste in her mouth and her tongue went numb, as if she had eaten something particularly disgusting. Finally, she dry heaved and vomited it up.

"Ugh... It tastes awful, it's so disgusting, it makes my mouth and tongue numb," Black Bull said with a look of nausea.

The venomous dragon that was spat out was covered in the black ox's saliva.

As for the Poisonous Dragon, it was extremely shocked to see that the Black Bull had only suffered numbness in its mouth and had not been killed by the venom on its body.

"What kind of monster are you? The venom on my body can even kill a demon beast at the Transformation Realm, yet you, a mere peak Dao Palace cultivator, are unharmed?" the Poisonous Flood Dragon asked incredulously.

Judging from the appearance, this venomous dragon is a female.

"How disgusting! I won't eat you since you're female, you're too awful." The black bull kept spitting.

Actually, he didn't intend to eat this guy. After all, Ye Liuyun had thrown him in, so how could he just kill him? It was purely to give this newcomer a hard time.

Looking at Ye Liuyun again, she had already come out of the Trial Road of the Ten Thousand Poisons Palace with Granny Jinhua. As soon as she came out, Xiangling ran towards Ye Liuyun with an extremely joyful expression and hugged her tightly.

"Sister Youlan, thank you! You're alright! You scared me to death just now."

"Eh?" Ye Liuyun was a little embarrassed again.

As for Liu Qianmei and the others, they all looked at Ye Liuyun as if he were a freak.

In their eyes, Shi Youlan was just an ordinary disciple with mediocre cultivation, but this ordinary disciple easily and safely passed the most difficult trial of their Ten Thousand Poisons Valley by using some methods, which made them somewhat dazed.

"Little girl, I'm very curious, what methods did you use to pass the level? Would you be willing to tell me, the Valley Master?" Liu Qianmei asked.

Ye Liuyun repeated exactly what he had just said to Granny Jinhua, using the same words and phrases, which gave Granny Jinhua a headache.

She was 100% certain that Ye Liuyun was lying.

Chapter 565 Conflict (5000 words + 2300 monthly votes bonus chapter)

However, Granny Jin Hua didn't dwell on the matter. To put it bluntly, this is a common problem among cultivators in the Gu God Domain. They are inherently distrustful. It's not just Ye Liuyun; other disciples in the valley wouldn't tell the truth to others either.

Over time, most sects in the Gu God Domain stopped worrying about whether others had secrets or were doing anything unspeakable. They wouldn't ask too many questions about these things because others wouldn't tell them.

This is very different from the customs of the Nine Heavens Domain. If the elders in the Nine Heavens Domain feel that you have a secret, or if you are not strong enough or important to the sect, they will allow you to interrogate them for their own benefit.

The sects in the Gu God Domain are very lax in their management. As long as you complete the tasks assigned by the sect and obey the necessary orders, no one will care about anything else. Even if you don't stay in the sect, it doesn't matter.
