419: Lin Xiu's request

Flames filled the sky, spreading towards the hazy side, starting as a spark and then becoming a prairie fire.

After the fire completely spread, the temperature in the air noticeably increased.

The onlookers felt a little dizzy, and sweat dripped from their foreheads and temples.

Little Fairy Doctor did not give up easily; since she was testing her limits, she had to go all out.

Her hand seals changed.

One after another, poisonous palms appeared and merged into the previous giant palm.

The Netherworld Poison Palm could be enhanced by stacking, deepening the power within the palm technique. According to the description in the Fighting Skill, it could be stacked up to nine times.

"How come it doesn't seem to be working?"

After continuously throwing five or six palms, Little Fairy Doctor was stunned. The Netherworld Poison Palm was still at a disadvantage, not even showing any signs of strengthening, and was even about to be destroyed by Yao Tianhuo's attack.

"Idiot, you need to use Dou Qi of different attributes."

Suddenly, a voice rang out.

Little Fairy Doctor looked in the direction of the voice, a charming smile blossoming on her face, "Lin Xiu, you're back."

Lin Xiu nodded slightly, raised his eyes to look at Yao Tianhuo's attack, and gently waved his hand.

The next moment, Yao Tianhuo's attack was directly erased as if it had never appeared.

This world also returned to its normal state.

But even after all this, Lin Xiu did not stop. An attraction appeared around his body, forming a human-shaped vortex. Large patches of black mist surged from all directions, rushing into his body.

"Is this Woeful Poison Qi?"

Little Fairy Doctor was stunned for a moment, then reacted, looking at Lin Xiu with uncertainty.

"That's right. You thought the poison Qi was destroyed, but in fact, it was dispersed into the air and then drifted into the bodies of other people."

Lin Xiu's gaze indicated.

Little Fairy Doctor looked down at the ground, her pretty face turning slightly pale. She saw many people lying unconscious, having lost consciousness.

Those people never dreamed that the oppression and faintness they felt earlier were not from an Aura, but from the Woeful Poison Body being destroyed and scattering, which they then inhaled.

Because it was relatively faint, those with stronger strength did not notice any obvious abnormality.

Furthermore, most people present had never seen the power of Woeful Poison Qi and could not distinguish it.

At this moment, with Lin Xiu's appearance and the burst of attraction, everyone felt something disappearing from their bodies, and their consciousness and bodies became lighter.

"I almost caused a big disaster. It's a good thing you came back."

Little Fairy Doctor showed an embarrassed expression, not expecting that her impromptu sparring session almost brought a devastating blow to the Cultivation Alliance.

However, she also realized the terrifying nature of her Woeful Poison Qi.

No wonder the Woeful Poison Body was universally reviled on the continent; after all, when it truly erupted, it did not distinguish between friend and foe.

"Alright, let's go down first."

Gathering all the Woeful Poison Qi back, Lin Xiu gave Little Fairy Doctor a helpless look.

Yao Tianhuo rushed over from a distance and asked in surprise, "Those people who fainted, are they poisoned?"

Lin Xiu nodded, feeling strange, "What did you think happened?"

"Oh, I thought they were intimidated by my powerful Aura."

Yao Tianhuo chuckled awkwardly.

"You're overthinking it."

Lin Xiu waved his hand, "Let others help look after them. I've drawn out all the poison Qi, so there shouldn't be any major problems."

"Got it. By the way, what Realm are you in now?"

Yao Tianhuo couldn't suppress his inner doubt. He felt that his previous attack had used nearly eighty percent of his strength, yet Lin Xiu had resolved it so effortlessly.

"Five-Star Dou Sheng."

Lin Xiu replied, then seeing Yao Tianhuo's stunned expression, he ignored him and led Little Fairy Doctor back to their dwelling.

Yao Tianhuo was stunned for a long time before he came back to his senses in surprise.

Back in the courtyard.

Lin Yinan saw Lin Xiu return, leaped down from the rooftop, and was steadily caught by Lin Xiu.

After a moment of affection between father and son, Lin Yinan was carried away by his mother, Little Fairy Doctor.

"You've gained a lot from this trip."

Xiao Xuan looked at Lin Xiu, smiling, a hint of shock flashing in his eyes.

He had originally thought that after seeing the Bodhi Ancient Tree, he had a sufficient understanding of Lin Xiu. Now, it seemed that what he thought he knew was merely what he thought he knew.

"Senior Xiao, I encountered people from the Hall of Souls on my way back."

Ignoring the other party's teasing, Lin Xiu went straight to the point.

Xiao Xuan's expression immediately became serious.

Lin Xiu continued, "Do you know about the Gate of Dead Silence?"

"You encountered it?"

Xiao Xuan asked in return, then saw Lin Xiu nod.

Seeing the puzzled expression on Xiao Xuan's face, Lin Xiu seemed to guess his thoughts, "At that time, Xiao Yan led people to attack the Hall of Souls, and then encountered a person from the Soul Clan who called himself Hun Feng, claiming to be the Young Clan Leader of the Soul Clan. When he was no match for me and was about to be captured, he summoned a black gate and even called the person inside an Old Ancestor."

Xiao Xuan had not heard of Hun Feng's name and did not know much about him. He pondered for a moment, then said seriously, "The Gate of Dead Silence is a Formation structure that was once famous in the Central Plains. Under normal circumstances, it requires four Gates of Dead Silence as its cornerstones. Once the four gates are opened, they will construct a death barrier. If one falls into the barrier, even a Seven or Eight-Star Dou Sheng could be endlessly trapped within it, enveloped by endless death Qi."

To construct this Formation, the Gate of Dead Silence was key, and it required a long time to prepare.

Xiao Xuan didn't expect to hear this name from Lin Xiu and couldn't help but clench his fists.

It seemed that over the past thousand years, the Soul Clan had indeed made many preparations, even arranging for such a Move.

"Perhaps this time, with the Purification Lotus Demon Flame, we might see the Gate of Dead Silence officially deployed."

Lin Xiu looked at Xiao Xuan.

"That might be a bit troublesome. The Great Formation of the Death Realm is very threatening. Given the Soul Clan's habits, the strength of the four individuals responsible for this great Formation must not be low."

Xiao Xuan frowned, "During this period, the Soul Clan has actually been quite active. Earlier, there were traces of the Heavenly Demon Phoenix Clan appearing nearby, accompanying the Soul Clan, but I scared them away."

"They've gotten involved together?"

Lin Xiu was not surprised by the news.

Xiao Xuan asked, "What did you do before?"

"I killed one of their Young Clan Leaders. Not long ago, I also slaughtered the so-called Three Heavenly Phoenixes."

Lin Xiu truthfully said.

How ruthless.

Xiao Xuan lightly took a breath.

"Senior Xiao, there's something I hope you can help me with."

Lin Xiu became serious.

Xiao Xuan nodded, looking at Lin Xiu.

"For the foreseeable future, I hope Senior Xiao can spar with me for a while."

Lin Xiu slowly said.

Not far away, Yao Tianhuo had one foot stepped into the courtyard, and just happened to hear Lin Xiu's words. He immediately retracted his foot as if he had been electrocuted, turning around without hesitation.

"Phew, that was close. I almost got dragged into doing hard labor by Lin Xiu again."

Yao Tianhuo patted his chest, bitterness appearing in his eyes, seemingly recalling the days of fighting with Lin Xiu day and night a few years ago.

If it were a real sparring session, it would be fine, but how could a Dou Zun fight a Dou Sheng using a Yellow Rank low-level Fighting Skill?

What kind of sparring was that?

In the courtyard, Xiao Xuan was stunned for a moment, not realizing the true meaning of Lin Xiu's words, and laughed easily, "Alright, I also want to know your strength."
