The black tiger, with its overwhelming momentum, charged directly at Qin Chuan's golden dragon arrow.
Boom!
The mysterious heavy bow possessed immense power, imbued with the strength of a divine dragon and divine power. However, the old man was no ordinary opponent; his Tiger Seal was no ordinary technique, actually blocking Qin Chuan's dragon arrow.
Although blocked, the black tiger seal vanished.
At this moment, the attacks of several magical beasts arrived.
Qin Chuan smiled at him, while Elder Wulong completely disregarded them, waving his hand away at the beasts. In his eyes, they were just a few beasts, not worth a second thought.
Qin Chuan didn't know if the old man had recognized them as magical beasts; given his arrogance, he probably wouldn't believe they were magical beasts anyway, hence his dismissive attitude.
This wave of his hand, however, caused trouble.
Hiss!
His palm was slashed by the magical beast's sharp claws. These claws were coated with potent poison. Qin Chuan, seeing this from a distance, was slightly stunned; the attack was incredibly fast.
This truly shows how carelessness can be deadly. So many people have fallen victim to it, dying with their eyes wide open in disbelief. Qin Chuan knew the battle was about to end; no one knew better than him how potent his poison was.
Elder Wulong looked at the bloodstains on his hand, smiled disdainfully, and then a flash of light appeared, automatically healing him completely.
"What? You think such a small injury can kill me? I knew you'd say it's poison. With your kind of poison, even ten times stronger than on a wall wouldn't work on me. I forgot to tell you, I'm immune to all poisons," Wulong said smugly. Qin Chuan was taken aback. He
hadn't realized the other party was immune to all poisons. "Immune to all poisons" was an exaggeration; it didn't mean he was immune to all poisons, but rather that he had a strong resistance to them.
In principle, no one is immune to poison. The reason someone isn't killed is because the poison isn't potent enough.
If the poison is strong enough, it can kill anything.
However, Qin Chuan wasn't absolutely certain. After all, the other party had a special constitution, and anything was possible. So, Qin Chuan didn't know if he could poison the other party; if he couldn't, that would be awkward.
However, thinking about his own potent poison, Qin Chuan became more confident. He believed his poison was effective; he used his Golden Divine Eye to examine the old man's physique and gleaned some insights.
The old man's physique was indeed resistant to poison, but in Qin Chuan's opinion, it wasn't enough for the Heavenly Dao to resist such a potent poison, nor could it completely resist his own.
So Qin Chuan breathed a sigh of relief, watching the old man smugly.
"What? You really intend to kill me with this poison? How utterly ridiculous!" Elder Wulong couldn't help but mock Qin Chuan's confident demeanor.
Qin Chuan nodded: "Do you think it's impossible?"
"Hahaha, you frog in a well, truly ignorant and fearless! Do I look like someone who's been poisoned?" The old man laughed loudly.
But as soon as he finished laughing and speaking, his expression changed. He stared at Qin Chuan in disbelief, as if he had seen a vengeful ghost, his mouth agape, pointing at Qin Chuan, unable to utter a single word.
However, his physique was indeed quite remarkable, allowing him to endure for so long. Even now, although he couldn't speak, he was at least not dead and could live for a while longer.
Those around were stunned, and even the array masters paled. They knew that if the old man truly died, they too would likely perish; the fear of death was innate in humans.
The old man clutched his chest, watching Qin Chuan's figure slowly fall.
With their leader dead, the rest panicked, some even fleeing. Qin Chuan remained still, simply sending a few treasure beasts to pursue them. Whether they escaped was up to fate.
...
Repelling the Five Qi Yang Sect's attack once again brought a sigh of relief to Qin Chuan, as did the two women. After all, it was the Five Qi Yang Sect, a major sect far more powerful than the Heavenly Kingdom. They
had initially thought they would be utterly helpless against such an opponent, but Qin Chuan had repelled their attacks twice.
However, it was uncertain whether things would calm down for a while after this, allowing Qin Chuan to prepare. With so many losses in two attacks, two possibilities lay ahead.
One option is to halt the attack and gather intelligence. As the saying goes, "Know yourself and know your enemy, and you will never be defeated." Blindly attacking again would only lead to greater losses. This time, the losses were devastating, especially the deaths of several of the best formation masters.
This is a huge loss, as cultivating a loyal formation master is extremely difficult. Trying to win over a powerful formation master is risky, as they are proud and could be spies sent by the enemy.
Therefore, formation masters must be trustworthy.
It seems the Five Qi Yang Sect suffered a great loss this time, and indeed they are. The sect leader is currently furious; if Elder Wulong hadn't died, the patriarch would likely have executed him upon their return. The Five Qi Yang Sect
didn't immediately resume their attack but instead sent people into the Heavenly Kingdom. They wanted to see what tricks this young man had up his sleeve to cause so many deaths within the sect.
Several days of calm gradually calmed Qin Chuan's heart.
He knew that the Five Qi Yang Gate wouldn't be coming back anytime soon, but if they did, it would mean they were absolutely confident of defeating him.
Therefore, he couldn't be complacent now; if they appeared one day, his side would be in danger.
He couldn't relax; he needed to study formations. Formations were a huge area of growth for Qin Chuan, after all, there was a large, ancient, and high-level formation in the imperial city, and Qin Chuan had learned a lot from it, allowing his formation skills to advance rapidly.
His cultivation level was difficult to improve in a short time, but Qin Chuan possessed the Divine Path Step and the Yin-Yang Great Dao abilities, only his realm and strength were relatively low. He needed to find a breakthrough point, and recently he found two paths.
One was to study formations and break through their limitations.
He had used this before and it was highly effective, since breakthroughs in formations were linked to talismans and formation divine positions; a breakthrough in one would allow the other two to break through in the short term.
The other was the Ice Seal Explosion.
This ability is also at a breakthrough point. With effort, he can definitely break through it in a short time. Qin Chuan really likes this ability, since it has a chance to directly seal and explode the opponent, causing terrifying damage, even killing them outright.
It's like turning stone into gold; this ability has a chance to directly transform the target into gold or stone. The success rate is related to the opponent's strength and cultivation level, as well as their physique, cultivation techniques, and supernatural abilities.
However, as long as Qin Chuan cultivates them to a high enough level, he will definitely succeed. Even if he fails, it will greatly weaken the target's speed.
