She wanted to take advantage of the explosion of the Xuanyin Refining Puppet Array to catch Taoist Zi Yang off guard, and while Taoist Zi Yang was busy resisting the Yinxi poison, she took Su Yiyao and fled to the depths.
Finally, find a way to leave Fengyin Mountain in the deep courtyard.
Luo Xue's previous questions had confirmed that Taoist Zi Yang had never been deep into Fengyin Mountain, and had no idea about the secrets inside.
In other words, Taoist Zi Yang was actually relying on his cultivation to resist the poison of Yin Xi, and his cultivation was not able to support him to withstand the poison deep in Feng Yin Mountain.
At this point, things become very simple.
But before Luo Xue pushed the coffin deeper, she noticed something was wrong.
"Why is the concentration of Yin Qi poison in the surrounding area still increasing?"
Taking the concentration of Yin Xi poison in the Xuanyin Refining Puppet Array as a benchmark, the initial concentration outside was 0.1, and it increased to about 0.3 after Luo Xue detonated the array.
I thought it would gradually stabilize around 0.5. After all, even in the depths of Fengyin Mountain, the concentration is only between 1 and 1.2.
But now, the concentration of Yinxi poison has reached above 0.5, and there is no sign of stopping.
"Ugly bitch! What you've done has completely disrupted the vicious cycle of Fengyin Mountain. How dare you! "
Taoist Zi Yang screamed hysterically, and it could be seen that his protective spiritual energy could no longer withstand the 0.5 concentration of Yin Xi poison.
Spots of sores appeared on his body, and his face was full of scars, which was very horrifying.
"Madman... You are the madman. You are planning to kill everyone here by doing this!"
At this moment, Taoist Zi Yang showed a look of fear.
He no longer chased Luo Xue, but stumbled and ran out like mad.
Everything Taoist Zi Yang did and all his plans were for the sake of survival.
When his life was threatened, he gave up everything without hesitation and tried to escape the disaster.
But at this moment, the surging Yin Qi poison also disrupted the unstable outer formation of refining the Xuan Yin Gu, and an earth-shaking explosion sounded.
Luo Xue looked up and saw countless pieces of courtyard debris being thrown high into the air, even the ground was shaking for a while.
The explosion also affected the depths of Fengyin Mountain, and strong poisonous Yin Qi continued to gush out, leaving no grass or trees wherever it went.
“I’ll go!”
Luo Xue was shocked. She didn't expect this result.
It seems that I have... stirred up a big mess.
If we stay any longer, the concentration around us will probably reach 1 or even higher.
Luo Xue knew very well that her limit was about 1.5. If it was any higher, she would instantly turn into a dried corpse.
Adding points to poison resistance is not a panacea. Reaching a Yin Poison concentration of 1.5 is no different from taking a bath directly with Yin Poison, which means you are taking a bath in all directions all the time without any blind spots.
We have to change our plans.
At this time... How is it possible to continue going deeper into Fengyin Mountain
"Escape from Fengyin Mountain immediately!"
Luo Xue made a prompt decision and pushed the coffin as fast as she could, running towards the point where it entered the sea in her memory.
At this time, the illusion that enveloped the entire Fengyin Mountain had gradually been eroded by the Yinxi poison, revealing a terrifying corner outside Fengyin Mountain.
The residual fluctuations after the explosion of the Xuanyin Gu refining formation had not ended. From time to time, some unstable formation fragments appeared around and exploded under the catalysis of the Yinxi poison.
Not more, not less, but it made Luo Xue extremely embarrassed.
At the same time, Luo Xue also saw the broken limbs of Huang Xinya and Yu Yiling.
The two young girls, who were just over the age of twenty, died with their eyes open. Their heads thrown high were filled with confusion and fear. Their expressions before death were exactly the same as Li Zining's.
They had already died before the formation erupted, but the explosion prevented them from leaving their bodies intact.
Fengyin Mountain at this time was like the end of the world.
“I haven’t even reached the innate level yet.”
Luo Xue was in great pain.
Although she kept coughing up blood, she did not stop.
Su Yiyao, who was in the coffin, was a little worried. She wanted to open the coffin lid to see what was going on, but she was still held down by Luo Xue.
"Xiaoyao, wait a moment. With the current concentration of the poison, you might be in danger..."
Luo Xue's voice revealed a hint of weakness, and she was indeed not afraid of viciousness.
But the explosion of the formation fragments and the extreme fatigue had made Luo Xue unable to hold on any longer.
Fortunately, Luo Xue's perseverance was strong enough. After an unknown amount of time, she finally reached the shore.
At this time, the illusion of Fengyin Mountain has been destroyed. One step further is a filthy swamp filled with all kinds of poisonous creatures and terrifying beasts.
The slightly spreading swamp submerged the small raft that Luo Xue had spent a lot of effort to build.
The entire raft was eroded by the swamp sewage and was full of potholes. One can imagine what a miserable situation would have been if Luo Xue had ventured to leave on the raft at that time.
However, Luo Xue no longer needs the raft now.
She has a coffin.
This is a coffin that has been soaked in Yinxi Poison with a concentration of 1 for who knows how many years without being destroyed. It is absolutely top-quality and excellent material. The mere poisonous swamp is not worth mentioning at all.
"Xiaoyao... come out."
Luo Xue slumped beside the coffin. Xiao Yao quickly reached out and supported Luo Xue.
"Ah Chou, you..."
Su Yiyao was a little at a loss, but Luo Xue waved her hand and said,
"It's okay, I'm just tired."
There were also internal injuries caused by the aftermath of the explosion.
Luo Xue sensed it a little bit and found that the concentration of the poison around her was about 0.2, which was still bearable with Su Yiyao's physique.
However, the concentration is still rising.
And... the Taoist Zi Yang who ran away earlier is still nowhere to be seen.
"Let's go quickly and get on the coffin."
Luo Xue calmed herself down and looked at the remaining survival points.
"There are 20 points left..."
Luo Xue did not hesitate to improve her living conditions.
But this time the consumption is not 10 points, but 15 points.
Because Luo Xue's cultivation level has increased, the cost of improvement has also increased accordingly.
"... Is this considered a profiteer?"
Luo Xue complained weakly.
A dishonest businessman may be a dishonest businessman, but he still has to spend the money he needs to survive.
There was no time to waste, so Luo Xue and Su Yiyao immediately pushed the coffin into the swamp and planned to use the coffin boards as wooden paddles.
But before they could sit on the coffin, they felt a horrifying aura coming from behind.
"Zi Yang Taoist..."
Luo Xue's heart tightened and she looked back.
In the sinister Fengyin Mountain, a skinny figure stumbled towards them.
Soon, Taoist Zi Yang showed up.
It's just... he has turned into a skeleton.
The dry skin was tightly attached to the skeleton, the beating heart broke the ribs, and the eye sockets were pitch black.
There was no trace of spiritual energy in his body, and his foundation-building skills had been completely corroded by the Yin Qi poison, leaving only a dying, withered body.
The skeleton locked its aura on Luo Xue and stumbled towards her with an obsession.
"It's you... It's all you..."
From the hoarse throat came a voice that was hard to discern, full of deep hatred.
"Why... do you want to ruin my plan..."
"Why!!!"
Luo Xue knew that if they didn't get rid of Taoist Zi Yang, they would never be able to escape.
Worse still, if Taoist Zi Yang deliberately destroyed the coffin, it would be a real death situation.
"... there will be a battle."
Luo Xue sighed, took out the dagger she carried with her, and walked down from the coffin.
Chapter 30: Foundation Building vs Acquired Nature & Soul Condensation
Taoist Zi Yang wants to live.
All I have done so far is to live.
Even if the price of his survival requires the sacrifice of countless lives that have yet to bloom.
Luo Xue's action of destroying the Xuanyin Refining Puppet Array disturbed the source of the Yinxi poison deep in Fengyin Mountain.
A large amount of Yinxi poison was released, and Taoist Zi Yang was completely unable to resist.
His limit is between 0.3 and 0.4, and he has to maintain his body's spiritual power at all times.
So, when he realized this, Taoist Zi Yang gave up on hunting down Luo Xue, gave up on the plan he had been pursuing for decades, and tried to escape with a chance of survival.
Unfortunately...
Taoist Zi Yang might have been unlucky as he encountered a huge explosion from the outside world.
This great formation, which contained countless of his efforts and was capable of integrating the Xuanyin Gu species and implementing the evil heaven-stealing magic, had in turn cut off his way of survival.
The head-on explosion left Taoist Zi Yang seriously injured. After he recovered, it became impossible for him to escape.
The concentration of Yin poison reached 0.8. His flesh, blood and internal organs were completely corroded by the Yin poison. Only a trace of his soul and skeleton escaped stumblingly.
With all his life force completely cut off, Taoist Zi Yang was only a hair's breadth away from death. Only his obsession still controlled his will.
Taoist Zi Yang fell into despair never before experienced in his life.
The culprit behind all this...
"Hiss... Huh... Hiss..."
Taoist Zi Yang stared at Luo Xue intently, his pair of strange snake eyes showing a sinister look at this moment.
His throat could no longer make any sound, but his aura still made Luo Xue feel an extremely strong sense of oppression.
No matter what... Even though his life is coming to an end, Taoist Zi Yang is still a foundation-building cultivator.
In the blink of an eye, the skeleton figure disappeared.
The next moment, he appeared in front of Luo Xue, grabbing her with a pair of sharp bony fingers.
Although Luo Xue had been on high alert, the astonishing speed still caught her off guard and she hastily raised her dagger to parry.
“clang!”
Although it was just dry bones, it was sharper than gold and iron. Luo Xue's dagger broke with a sound.
And she was forced to retreat a few feet away, and moved a little closer to Fengyin Mountain, deliberately staying away from the coffin.
Taoist Zi Yang had lost his mind, and his only obsession was to let Luo Xue be buried here with him. So he did not destroy the only hope of leaving Fengyin Mountain, but directly pressed on and approached Luo Xue.
"This is the foundation building... He has already lost all his spiritual energy and is dying, but his physical strength is still so strong."
Luo Xue raised her almost broken arm in pain, but it was of no use. She could only use her other arm to hold the sword.
But Taoist Zi Yang would not give her time to rest and appeared in front of her again in an instant.
The bone claws attacked again, and Luo Xue, who was unable to dodge, was hit directly. The flesh on her left arm was cut like tofu, and purple-red blood flowed out.
