"Tian Huang City, Liu Qing."
Hearing this, Xiao Yixian froze momentarily, her beautiful eyes flickering with a hint of confusion.
"Heh, Liu Qing is a friend of mine from Jia Nan Academy. He has news that's very important to me. This news might allow us to gain the power of a Dou Zun. With that, we'll have greater confidence in dealing with the Valley Master of Ice River Valley," Mo Yu explained.
"Oh? A Dou Zun powerhouse?" Xiao Yixian's face revealed a trace of astonishment upon hearing Mo Yu's words.
Having been in Central Plains for over a year, she now fully understood the strength and status that a Dou Zun powerhouse held on the Dou Qi Continent. The idea of gaining such power left her quite surprised.
"Focus on recovering first. Once you're healed, we'll set off. If everything goes smoothly, the problem of the Woeful Poison Body will be completely resolved."
Mo Yu waved his hand decisively, without offering further explanation.
Hearing this, Xiao Yixian lightly nodded. She had immense trust in Mo Yu, and the Woeful Poison Body had always been a heavy burden on her heart. If it could truly be resolved, nothing could be better.
"In the meantime, I'll make proper preparations to ensure everything proceeds without any mishaps."
Mo Yu smiled faintly and returned to his meditative posture on the green stone slab, silver eyes shimmering with a flickering light.
He understood that once Xiao Yixian fully controlled the Woeful Poison Body, she would leap directly into the Dou Zun realm.
With her and Qing Zhi, he would have two Dou Zun powerhouses by his side. Such strength would be sufficient to flatten the Ten Thousand Sword Pavilion!
Thinking of this, flames of determination surged in Mo Yu's heart.
The Ten Thousand Sword Pavilion and Master Zhu Jian were already on his must-destroy blacklist. One day, he would return to the Western Region to settle the score for their pursuit of him.
Far away, near a mountain stream, thick blood stained the surrounding rocks. A pungent, bloody stench lingered in the air, and lifeless bodies were sprawled haphazardly across the rocky terrain.
The eerie silence in this place was broken only by the persistent, acrid smell of blood, a testament to the brutal battle that had taken place here.
This silence endured for a long time until the distant sound of rushing wind shattered it. Moments later, numerous white figures flew over from afar.
Upon seeing the corpses scattered across the ground, their faces turned ashen.
An elderly figure landed slowly on a massive rock, his face marked with shock as he surveyed the corpses. After a long moment, he took a deep, chilling breath.
"Elder Bing Xian."
A pale-faced disciple of Ice River Valley approached the old man, swallowing nervously as he spoke in a low voice, "All the elite forces sent to search for the Woeful Poison Maiden in Fallen God Ravine have been slaughtered here, including the Fourth Elder Bing Fu."
The elder known as Bing Xian closed his eyes slightly at the news. When he opened them again, they were filled with a menacing glint.
"Gather all the corpses and bring them back! I must return to Ice River Valley immediately!"
With these words, Bing Xian turned and left, his expression sinister.
The Ice River Valley disciple nodded silently, his gaze lingering briefly on the four aged bodies nearby. A chill ran through his heart—four Dou Zong powerhouses had been annihilated. Who could possess such terrifying strength?
Though he didn't know the exact identity of the culprits, he understood one thing: the Central Plains would not remain peaceful after this. With Ice River Valley's might, they would never let the deaths of three elders go unanswered!
Within a softly lit cave, a man and a woman sat cross-legged—Mo Yu and Xiao Yixian.
Unaware of the earlier massacre that had incited Ice River Valley's fury, they remained unfazed.
After all, their primary target had always been the Valley Master of Ice River Valley, a feud that predestined their enmity.
Inside the cave, a campfire burned warmly. By the fire, Xiao Yixian, now fully recovered, rested her delicate chin on her hand. Occasionally, her gaze would drift toward Mo Yu, who was deep in cultivation.
Every time her eyes lingered on his handsome face, a trace of nostalgia appeared in her expression, as if recalling the scenes from their past in the Magic Beast Mountain Range.
Boom!
As Xiao Yixian's thoughts wandered, a muffled sound suddenly echoed in the cave.
She quickly looked up, noticing the energy within the cave growing chaotic, as if being drawn toward one corner.
Her gaze followed the direction of the energy flow and landed on Mo Yu. Her beautiful eyes flickered with surprise.
"A breakthrough?"
Xiao Yixian was no stranger to such phenomena. As a Six-Star Dou Zong, she had experienced similar breakthroughs multiple times.
Seeing this, she smiled softly without worry. When she had first encountered Mo Yu, she had sensed that he was at the peak of Two-Star Dou Zong, nearing a breakthrough.
Still, Mo Yu's cultivation speed had exceeded her expectations. His age and strength were astonishing, especially by the standards of the Northwest Region.
Just as Xiao Yixian had predicted, Mo Yu showed no panic during the phenomenon. Instead, he intensified his absorption.
A circle of white and green lightning surged from his body, refining the incoming energy with profound precision before drawing it into his body.
In Fallen God Ravine, the pervasive toxins even contaminated the natural energy, deterring ordinary cultivators from training there.
To overcome this, Mo Yu relied on his True Origin Devouring Thunder to absorb energy and his Profound Yin Poison Demon Thunder to refine the poisonous elements.
The breakthrough required an immense amount of energy, which surged into the cave like a vortex, flowing endlessly into Mo Yu's body.
Xiao Yixian frowned slightly at the commotion.
The toxic creatures in Fallen God Ravine were highly sensitive to energy fluctuations. Mo Yu's large-scale absorption would inevitably attract their attention.
Fortunately, the cave entrance was guarded by Qing Zhi and the Black Bat King. With Qing Zhi's peak Dou Zong strength, even Xiao Yixian held him in high regard.
The phenomenon within the cave lasted for about half an hour before the rampant energy finally began to subside. The energy vortex surrounding Mo Yu gradually faded away.
As the last strand of energy entered his body, Mo Yu's tightly shut eyes trembled slightly before slowly opening.
In an instant, two beams of energy shot from his eyes like tangible pillars, piercing a massive rock in front of him with a loud pop.
The excess energy from his breakthrough had caused this extraordinary sight.
As the energy beams dissipated, the brilliance in Mo Yu's eyes faded, returning to a calm, unfathomable depth.
At a glance, he seemed unchanged, but his aura was far more imposing than before.
Mo Yu stretched out his hand, gripping the air lightly. The void above his palm twisted faintly.
Manipulating spatial energy—the hallmark of a Dou Zong. Yet, at this stage, it was only rudimentary. True mastery required reaching the Dou Zun or even Dou Sheng realm.
Thanks to his Flash Void Breaking Thunder, Mo Yu's control over spatial energy was exceptional.
Back then, he had relied on its spatial-sealing ability to kill Qing Jian, a peak Dou Zong.
"Finished?"
As Mo Yu marveled at his breakthrough, a gentle, melodious voice sounded before him. Looking up, he saw Xiao Yixian in her pure white dress, exuding an elegant charm.
"Everything is going smoothly, a three-star Dou Zong!"
Mo Yu nodded as a powerful aura burst forth from within him, his Dou Qi roaring like a dragon.
Seeing this, Xiao Yixian's beautiful eyes flickered. Although Mo Yu was only a three-star Dou Zong, the pressure he exuded was no less intense than that of the six-star Dou Zong expert from the Ice River Valley she had faced earlier.
Roar! Just as the two were speaking, the mountain suddenly began to tremble violently.
A resounding dragon's roar echoed from outside the mountain, sweeping through like a storm and blasting away all the loose rocks on the ground!
"Ha ha! Little beauty, I didn't expect to find you here. Since that's the case, obediently stay and become my woman! This king will use your Woeful Poison Body to produce the purest and most perfect offspring!"
The dragon's roar was followed by loud laughter, like thunder, rolling out from a stone fortress and spreading ripples through the air.
Hearing this, Mo Yu was momentarily stunned. When the meaning of the words sank in, his expression darkened instantly.
"It's the Sky Poison Dragon Scorpion Beast!" Xiao Yixian said in a grave tone.
"In the Falling God Ravine, venomous creatures run rampant, and there are many terrifying poisonous magical beasts. The Sky Poison Dragon Scorpion Beast is one of the rulers of this region."
"When I first entered the ravine, I encountered that beast. The moment it saw me, it acted like a lunatic, constantly shouting about taking me back to be its woman. At the time, I was gravely injured and didn't want to get entangled with it, so I had to find a way to escape."
Mo Yu was stunned, staring at Xiao Yixian's peculiar expression. After a moment, he shook his head and chuckled, "It seems you really are quite charming. Even magical beasts are going crazy for you and want to make you their queen."
"What's so funny about that? That beast was clearly after my Woeful Poison Body!" Xiao Yixian retorted, her cheeks tinged with a blush of embarrassment.
Knowing she was shy, Mo Yu quickly stopped laughing, a cold smirk forming on his lips. "How strong is that big guy?"
"I didn't fight it directly, but it's definitely stronger than Bing Fu and the others. I estimate it to be around eight-star Dou Zong." Xiao Yixian pondered aloud.
"An eight-star Dou Zong, huh?" Mo Yu's lips curled into a disdainful smile as he pulled Xiao Yixian toward the cave entrance.
Outside the cave, a blood-red figure hovered in the sky. A massive pair of dragon wings, each ten meters long, extended from its back, while a crimson scorpion tail, over a dozen meters in length, swayed menacingly behind it, its tip gleaming with a chilling light.
The figure floated in the air, the full moon behind it. Its wings flapped gently, stirring fierce winds, while its poisonous tail hissed like a snake. Poisonous energy filled the sky!
The Black Bat King stood opposite the blood-red figure, locked in a standoff. Meanwhile, Qing Zhi guarded the cave entrance to prevent any intruders.
As Mo Yu and Xiao Yixian reached the cave's entrance, they paused, their eyes locking onto the figure in the distant sky. Feeling the overwhelming pressure, Mo Yu's brows furrowed slightly. So, this is the Sky Poison Dragon Scorpion Beast?
Xiao Yixian's beautiful eyes flickered with a trace of solemnity as she gazed at the figure exuding poisonous energy. The Sky Poison Dragon Scorpion Beast was incredibly powerful, far beyond her ability to contend with alone.
However, glancing at the young man beside her, Xiao Yixian's lips curled into a faint smile.
The blood-red figure floated in the sky, its enormous dragon wings flapping slowly and stirring strong winds. Apart from its wings and scorpion tail, the Sky Poison Dragon Scorpion Beast bore no resemblance to a magical beast.
Its human-like appearance was strikingly handsome, with an air of wicked charm and sinister elegance. The Sky Poison Dragon Scorpion Beast slowly descended from the sky, stopping mid-air. Its gaze swept over the Black Bat King and Xiao Yixian before lingering on Mo Yu.
With a slight frown, it said, "No wonder you rejected this king's advances. So, you like pretty boys instead. But with that boy's mere three-star Dou Zong strength, he's no match for even a single hair of mine!"
"Don't talk nonsense! He and I are just..." Xiao Yixian's cheeks flushed as she sneaked a glance at Mo Yu and murmured softly.
"Outrageous! So there really is something going on between you two!"
Seeing Xiao Yixian's shy expression as she looked at Mo Yu, the Sky Poison Dragon Scorpion Beast's face darkened.
In his humanoid form, how could he fail to understand the meaning behind her expression?
Realizing this, the beast's gaze turned lustful as it fixated on Xiao Yixian's alluring figure.
Over the years, he had never encountered a woman who stirred his heart like this. Though he knew much of this attraction stemmed from her Woeful Poison Body, he didn't care.
To him, the Woeful Poison Body was like the most intoxicating poison. Just being near it made his soul tremble with ecstasy.
From the moment he first saw Xiao Yixian, he had decided—this woman would be his!
Even if her heart belonged to someone else, he would never abandon this desire.
"In that case, I'll kill your companion first," the Sky Poison Dragon Scorpion Beast said coldly, his gaze shifting to Mo Yu, a glint of malice in his eyes.
Before he could act, Mo Yu's eyes narrowed, and in an instant, lightning armor and wings materialized around him. His aura surged rapidly.
Heavenly Thunder Body, Second Stage! Six-star Dou Zong!
"Boom!"
Before the beast could react, Mo Yu disappeared. A thunderous sound rang out as a lightning-infused figure shot forth like a flash of light, piercing through the void to appear before the Sky Poison Dragon Scorpion Beast.
The next moment, a massive fist crackling with green lightning, imbued with poison, slammed into the beast's body.
"Bang!"
The Sky Poison Dragon Scorpion Beast was sent flying, crashing down like a meteor and creating a massive crater several meters wide in the forest below.
Struggling to rise from the pit, the beast glanced at the silver-eyed youth hovering in the sky. A flicker of fear appeared in its gaze…
