Chapter 120: Chapter 117: Giving a Grand Burial to an Ally

The young cultivator shouted loudly, no longer performing sword techniques, and simply aimed at Wang Wu’s heart, stabbing fiercely with ordinary force.

“Crack!”

The sword tip broke, and the young cultivator nearly hit Wang Wu himself. It was a close call; the poison sword almost cut into him.

The strike surprisingly did not penetrate defenses.

Wang Wu himself was amazed.

But he immediately realized that a basic defense of 43 points was actually quite insane. Previously, the sword technique, sword momentum, and sword qi augmented the sword, making it sharper.

Now this Qiushui Sword had been corroded by three kinds of Demon King-level poisons, unable to be enhanced by sword techniques, and its tenacity was greatly reduced.

And that young cultivator had considerable strength, so with a full-force stab, this was the effect.

At this moment, he anxiously looked back, hoping his senior brother could give him some advice, but the middle-aged cultivator was already sitting on the ground, concentrating on breathing and healing with his palms facing upwards, eyes closed.

In his desperation, the young cultivator could only grit his teeth, madly stabbing at Wang Wu with the broken sword.

The defenses would not break, but the three kinds of Demon King-level poisons smeared on the sword indeed took effect, instantly corroding Wang Wu’s body with large pits.

This time, the young cultivator finally wised up, specifically targeting those corroded pits, which proved to be effective. With a full-force stab, even a broken sword could penetrate over thirty centimeters. Flesh and blood splattered, with blackened tainted blood flowing; Wang Wu was truly poisoned.

But maybe due to lack of experience, excessive tension, or his special hatred for Wang Wu, even though the desired effect was achieved, he continued to stab relentlessly, unsatisfied.

As a result, in another deep stab, the broken sword couldn’t withstand the corrosion, hit the bone, and broke again. He staggered, barely able to stand, and coincidentally, a drop of blackened tainted blood splashed onto the back of his hand.

“Ah!”

He screamed, instinctively wanting to sever his own arm, but the broken sword in his hand was useless.

So he immediately discarded the broken sword, swiftly reached to his waist, took out several small gourds, opened the lids, and frantically poured antidote pills into his mouth.

His reaction was quick, and his response was accurate, but he still underestimated the power of the three kinds of Demon King-level poisons when mixed together.

Probably even his senior brother hadn’t conducted similar experiments. This time, they were really pushed to the corner by Wang Wu, and that’s why they dared to take the risk and try.

However, the power of these three kinds of Demon King-level poisons mixed together was truly terrifying.

The young cultivator had just poured the antidote pill into his mouth when his right hand was gone, yes, literally gone.

Wang Wu watched his arm like ice cream beginning to melt rapidly under the blazing sun. Flesh, bones, clothes all turned into black, furry, cotton candy-like blood chunks, dropping to the ground and instantly corroding the surface with a large pit.

“Senior brother, save me!”

The young cultivator finally panicked, realizing he had to sever his own arm.

But his long sword hadn’t been retrieved; however, he had a small knife at hand. He took it out and chopped at his right shoulder, and the result was like striking tofu dregs.

Swish, the shoulder that could maintain a bit of shape directly fell apart and splattered on the ground.

Immediately, he wanted to shout, but could no longer control his body. He knelt on the ground with a thud, head back, just able to see Wang Wu’s slightly narrowed eyes.

He couldn’t understand why the same poison, at least several dozen times the dosage, only corroded plate-sized pits on Wang Wu, but turned him into tofu dregs.

These demons, how terrifying!

That should be his last thought.

And the horrifying poison was spreading over his entire body, his trunk, his head, all turned into a pool of tainted blood in under five seconds.

As for Wang Wu, still immobilized by the Golden Light of Immobilization, yet he truly wasn’t afraid of the so-called three Demon King-level poisons’ erosion.

Even if these three Demon King-level poisons initially caused 1500 points of poison damage.

Even if that young cultivator didn’t make a mistake and directly stabbed his eyes.

So what?

He now had 4 points of Demon King-level poison resistance, which could exempt 400 points of poison damage initially.

The magic vine accompanying him could also exempt 200 points of poison damage initially.

Then, because the pre-existing poisons of these three Demon King-level poisons included Water Demon Poison, Paralyzing Poison, Bone-Dissolving Poison, Mad Bee Poison, Fire Poison, and Snake Demon Poison, all these poison resistances could take effect for Wang Wu.

Plus, the branch bloodline talent Grass and Wood Affinity,

ultimately provided a total of 850 points of poison damage exemption.

With various exemptions and deductions, the poison damage per second inflicted was only 50 points.

Unfortunately, Wang Wu’s Ninth-Grade Magical Artifact was destroyed, otherwise, this so-called three Demon King-level mixed poisons couldn’t break his poison defense at all.

Though it doesn’t really matter now.

He just watched quietly as the mixed poison fermented and developed, suppressing his Level 10 Self-Healing, so what?

Ten seconds later, when the mixed poison entered its second phase transformation, with poison damage still at 1500 points per second, his Level 10 Self-Healing was just activated, an extreme self-healing equivalent to a health recovery of 20+ per second.

Simultaneously, the Golden Light of Immobilization controlling Wang Wu finally dimmed, and he regained his freedom. Calculating the time, he was immobilized for a full sixty seconds, far less than that Gui Buli.

Back then, Gui Buli was only immobilized for a dozen seconds.

Clearly, that’s the strength gap. Gui Buli could even perfectly transform into human form.

Moreover, Gui Buli could withstand that lifebound sword with his turtle shell.

However, this was already enough for Wang Wu.

After regaining his mobility, he didn’t hesitate even for a moment. He rushed forward in a few steps and spit out a mouthful of poisonous blood at the middle-aged cultivator who was meditating.

He really was like a poisonous bear at this moment.

But, what Wang Wu never expected was that when the poisonous blood fell, a jade pendant on the middle-aged cultivator’s chest suddenly emitted a strong light, transforming into a mysterious light shield that completely protected him.

All the poisonous blood was bounced back, splattering all over Wang Wu.

What a precious treasure!

Yet, Wang Wu wasn’t shocked but rather pleased. This was a protective magical artifact; let’s see what other tricks you have.

He immediately tore off a large piece of festering flesh from his own body, corroded by the mixed poison, and threw it over. Instantly, the mysterious light shield sizzled and purified the rotten flesh in a flash.

Truly a good thing!

Wang Wu simply lay down in front of it, using the mysterious light shield as a healing water ball.

Oh, I can’t deny, the effect is really great.

To the extent that the poisonous mixture almost didn’t evolve to the third stage.

But after being messed with by Wang Wu for a while, the mysterious light shield finally weakened like a bubble, and its glow dimmed. He then smashed it with a full-strength claw, and with a crack, the mysterious light shield shattered.

At the same time, the jade pendant on the middle-aged cultivator’s chest turned to dust.

It was at this moment that he struggled to open his eyes, with shock, hatred, regret, confusion, pity, fear, helplessness, and many more emotions flashing across them.

Then, Wang Wu smashed his head with a claw.

There was no mercy, and Wang Wu didn’t give him a chance to say a word throughout the process.

Because this was truly a fight to the death.

No related kill information appeared in the attribute bar, as if a nameless ant had died.

Then Wang Wu lay quietly to the side, peacefully enjoying the third stage of the mixed poison.

Yes, it was a kind of enjoyment. Under full control, allowing his body to carefully feel the changes of the poison at different stages was a very precious experience, equivalent to strengthening immunity and accumulating knowledge.

And, stimulating his bloodline talent.

This was really too rare.

Especially with the most deadly enemy already eliminated.

The entire underground space was very quiet, with only the sound of Wang Wu’s heartbeat, pounding strongly, full of vitality.

About thirty more minutes passed.

The changes of the third stage of the mixed poison finally ended, without triggering a fourth stage poison injury change, because in the third stage, the poison injury was already very mild.

And Wang Wu’s Level 10 Self-Healing finally exhausted its last usage, with a heavy sense of weakness surging up, his comprehensive attributes were even less than a third of usual.

A line of information kept flooding the screen.

“You have endured the entire poison injury of three Demon King-level mixed poisons, experiencing all the stages of poison injury changes, benefiting greatly from this experience.”

“Your Bloodline Evolution Level has been strongly stimulated, increasing by 0.6%, current at 36.1%.”

“Your Special Growth Level has significantly increased, current at 100%, earning you 1% Bloodline Evolution Level, now at 37.1%.”

“With the Bloodline Evolution Level enhancement, you can extract a perfect level of negative resistance and convert it into your branch bloodline talent.”

“Your Demon King Level Poison Resistance has increased by 3 points, currently 7/100.”

“Your Water Demon Poison Resistance has reached perfection, currently 25/25, and can be extracted as a branch bloodline talent.”

“Your Paralysis Poison Resistance has reached perfection, currently 25/25, and can be extracted as a branch bloodline talent.”

“You have gained 5 points of Fire Poison Resistance, currently 12/25, eligible for preliminary perfect resistance.”

“You have gained 5 points of Snake Demon Poison Resistance, currently 17/25, eligible for…”

“You have gained 5 points of Bone-Dissolving Poison Resistance, currently 17/25, eligible for…”

“You have gained 5 points of Mad Bee Poison Resistance, currently 10/25, eligible for…”

“Note: Due to your significantly enhanced Mad Bee Venom Resistance, your chance of being perceived by the Ascetic Mad Bee has greatly decreased.”

——

“Not bad, not bad!”

Wang Wu smiled with satisfaction, even looking happily at the headless corpse beside him.

This person truly was his dear friend, Treasure-Bringing Boy, a selfless ally full of great love.

First gifting him a magical artifact, then providing him two great benefits, what more could be said? A grand burial would be apt.

Wang Wu struggled to get up; the other Little Demons or Little Tree Spirits could come at any time, so he might as well loot for a while. For example, that seemingly pitch-black gourd, which would shine with a Zijin glow in sunlight.

If he remembered correctly, it was filled with golden particles.
