"How...how is this possible? How can you move?" Demon Beast Xi Kun was so shocked that he didn't even notice his own internal injuries, instead speaking disbelief.

It must be known that he had relied on this poison to live unharmed until now, never expecting it to fail, his very foundation was now ineffective.

He never thought his blood poison would fail; every enemy he encountered affected by his blood poison, whether cultivators or ordinary civilians, never had anyone been unaffected, even speaking with difficulty.

Wait? Speaking with difficulty, earlier the person before him indeed seemed weak at first, gradually not seeming so weak anymore.

Has he been stalling for time? Removing the blood poison?

No, no matter what, he cannot let the antidote to his blood poison be discovered.

A fierce glint flashed in Xi Kun's eyes; he decided to immediately eliminate Ye Tianfan, lest delaying the inevitable lead to greater troubles. He could deal with the next cultivator when it happens, but this one was too dangerous.

Demon Beast Xi Kun took a sudden swipe at his wrist, immediately causing blood to flow from his wrist.

Oh no!

Xi Kun acted so quickly that Ye Tianfan didn't have time to stop his self-mutilation, unexpectedly still allowing the blood to be shed.

Ye Tianfan quickly held his breath, with his lung capacity and the nourishment of Spiritual Qi, he could hold his breath for a whole day without breathing, relying mainly on Spiritual Qi to replace oxygen.

Never mind, since the blood has been drawn, let's make a quick decision.

Ye Tianfan pointed a sword finger at Demon Beast Xi Kun, the Fire Lotus Sword swiftly thrusting toward Demon Beast Xi Kun.

Xi Kun ducked and dodged, rolling aside lazily.

Just as Ye Tianfan was about to press the advantage, he suddenly felt his vision double.

What's going on? Clearly, he hasn't breathed. Ye Tianfan fell to one knee, supporting his body, while the Fire Lotus Sword swiftly fell to the ground without the support of Spiritual Qi.

"Oh ho ho ho ho~" Demon Beast Xi Kun stepped out triumphantly when he saw Ye Tianfan fall again under his poison.

"Didn't expect this, did you? You thought holding your breath would stop my blood poison? It's useless. My blood poison not only infects through breathing, but it can also invade your body through the skin. However, I'm not going to waste more words with you; I'm going to roast you and eat you." After saying this, Demon Beast Xi Kun directly revealed his sharp claws and walked toward Ye Tianfan.

He learned from earlier and won't waste words with Ye Tianfan, nor allow him to regain his strength. He feared letting Ye Tianfan recover again, fearing he might have a way to counter his blood poison. Cultivators aren't stupid; they're all cunning as monkeys.

It's true, as a cultivator grows in power not only does their Spiritual Power increase, but also their lifespan, so even the dullest person, if they live long enough, will become savvy.

Ye Tianfan was panting heavily as he silently watched Demon Beast Xi Kun approach step by step; he knew this time no delay would be allowed, it would never give him another chance, and now he could only fight with all he had.

Ye Tianfan desperately mobilized the tiny amount of Spiritual Qi he could still manipulate inside his body.

This tiny bit of Spiritual Qi was only enough for one Sword Control; he only had this one chance, and it had to be a one-hit kill, otherwise, he would be a puppet.

Ye Tianfan watched Demon Beast Xi Kun approach step by step, calculating how to strike within a sure distance without being detected.

Now Ye Tianfan didn't dare to shift his gaze, fearing it would make Demon Beast Xi Kun suspicious, and he didn't want any unexpected events to occur as that would mean he truly had no chance.

Hmm?

What is happening? Why does it feel like Spiritual Qi can be mobilized much faster than before?

While Ye Tianfan was focused on finding Demon Beast Xi Kun's flaw, he suddenly felt his Spiritual Qi could be mobilized more, now allowing for two Sword Controls.

Could it be I've developed an immunity to its poison? Ye Tianfan didn't know why this was happening, only guessing he had developed an immunity to its poison.

Actually, Ye Tianfan wasn't guessing wrongly; he indeed developed immunity to Demon Beast Xi Kun's blood poison because years ago, Elder Yao knew he couldn't neutralize all the poisons in the world. So when Ye Tianfan gained the immunity to all poisons, it had a slight change. The immune effect was weakened a bit, but as long as it didn't kill outright, it could develop immunity to that poison until completely immune.

This fact wasn't even known to Ye Tianfan, even Elder Yao didn't know if he succeeded.

Then let's take advantage of this moment; Ye Tianfan raised a sword finger with his right hand, flicking it toward Demon Beast Xi Kun, the Fire Lotus Sword shooting toward it.

Demon Beast Xi Kun was constantly guarding against Ye Tianfan's moves. The reason he walked so slowly was that he feared Ye Tianfan had some other means. After all, being able to neutralize his poison once meant he could definitely do it a second time.

So this strike was naturally dodged by Demon Beast Xi Kun.

Ye Tianfan saw it dodge and did not pursue aggressively, instead pretending to be extremely weak, collapsing to the ground, breathing heavily, as if he would fall asleep at any moment.

Demon Beast Xi Kun glanced at Ye Tianfan after dodging the strike and, seeing his extremely weak state, still dared not believe it, standing still, unable to decide between attacking or waiting.

Attacking, he feared Ye Tianfan had more plans; not attacking, he feared Ye Tianfan might recover slowly.

Demon Beast Xi Kun's face was extremely ugly, willing to risk it, to gamble, might as well go all out.

Demon Beast Xi Kun stopped advancing slowly and directly charged at Ye Tianfan, intending to quickly kill him, not wanting him to come up with any more tricks.

Ye Tianfan saw Demon Beast Xi Kun's reckless charge, a mocking smile forming at the corner of his mouth. After all, a Demon Beast was always a Demon Beast, lacking human forethought.

Actually, Ye Tianfan's first attack was just to get the Fire Lotus Sword closer to Xi Kun, making it harder to dodge.

Ye Tianfan, with his hand in a place Demon Beast Xi Kun couldn't see, gently moved it, causing the Fire Lotus Sword to pierce directly at the charging Demon Beast Xi Kun.

This time, Demon Beast Xi Kun wasn't as lucky as last time, not even reacting, getting pierced through by the Fire Lotus Sword, and was pinned to the cave wall by the sword's reverse barbs.

Demon Beast Xi Kun struggled against the wall a few times, but the Fire Lotus Sword didn't move in the slightest. After struggling for a while, he weakly glanced at Ye Tianfan, twitched a bit, and then went still.
