老魔恶狠狠的声音传入耳朵，反正巳经撕破脸皮，那还有什么好客气：“以前我的修为是不如你，然而你的主元婴已经毁去，区区一个第二元婴夺舍来的身体，有什么好嚣张地，本尊上次能将你灭除，这一回，你同样无法从我手心中逃脱。”
The old demon's harsh voice echoed in his ears. Since they had already broken their truce, what was there left to be polite about? "Previously, my cultivation was inferior to yours. However, your main元婴 has been destroyed. This body you possess is merely a second元婴 that took over another’s life; how can it possibly be arrogant? The last time I managed to eliminate you, this time, you will not escape from my hands."
“ shì me ？”， gān shòu lǎo zhě xiào le ：“ gōng bié lǎo mó ， nǐ yǐ wéi lǎo fū zhǎo nǐ xún chóu ， huì sī háo zhǔn bèi méi yǒu ， zhè lǐ jiāng shì nǐ de mái gǔ zhī suǒ ， bù zhǐ shì nǐ ， zhè ér suǒ yǒu de xiū xiān zhě ， méi yǒu yí gè táo tuō ， shuí ràng tā men shì féng qí huì ne ， yào guài ， jiù guài zì jǐ yùn qì tài bù hǎo le 。”，“ shén me 。”， zhè huà yī chū kǒu ， suǒ yǒu rén jiē hài rán shī sè ， duì fāng zhè fān yán yǔ ， kǒu qì wèi miǎn yě tài dà le xiē ， jìng xiǎng yǐ yī rén zhī lì ， yǔ zài chǎng suǒ yǒu de xiū xiān zhě wèi dí ， ér qiě hái xiǎng yào xuè xǐ le zhè lǐ 。
“是么？”，干瘦老者笑了：“公别老魔，你以为老夫找你寻仇，会丝毫准备没有，这里将是你的埋骨之所，不止是你，这儿所有的修仙者，没有一个逃脱，谁让他们适逢其会呢，要怪，就怪自己运气太不好了。”，“什么。”，这话一出口，所有人皆骇然失色，对方这番言语，口气未免也太大了些，竟想以一人之力，与在场所有的修仙者为敌，而且还想要血洗了这里。
"Is that so?" The thin old man chuckled. "Old Demon Public, do you really think I came here unprepared for revenge? This place will be your grave. Not only you, but every cultivator present will not survive. Who let fate bring us together? Blame yourself for having such bad luck."
xiāo zhāng de rén wù dà jiā dōu céng qīn yǎn mù dǔ ， dàn què bù céng jiàn guò shuí xiāo zhāng dào zhè bān dì bù 。
嚣张的人物大家都曾亲眼目睹，但却不曾见过谁嚣张到这般地步。
"What?" Everyone was startled by his words. His tone seemed too presumptuous, as if he intended to challenge all the cultivators here and even massacre them. Such arrogance had never been seen before.
tā dāng zài zuò de xiū shì jiē shì zhǐ hú ？
他当在座的修士皆是纸糊？
Everyone had witnessed arrogant people, but none so bold as this.
suí suí biàn biàn jiù rèn qí ná niē le ？
随随便便就任其拿捏了？
Was everyone present just paper puppets?
yī shí zhī jiān ， qún xiū gǔ zào le qǐ lái ， gèng yǒu yī shēng qīng xiào chuán rù ěr duǒ ：“ yuán lái zhè wèi jū rán shì dà míng dǐng dǐng de mò dào yǒu ， qiè shēn tīng shuō mò dào yǒu shù bǎi nián qián jiù yǐ rán mò luò ， hái céng wèi zhī bēi qiè guò ， méi xiǎng dào dào yǒu jū rán hǎo hǎo de huó zhe ， zhēn shì kě xǐ kě hè ， rán ér nǐ yǔ gōng sūn dào yǒu jiān yǒu shén me yuān chóu ， zì kě yǐ zhǎo yī wú rén zhī suǒ ， qù màn màn jiě jué de ， běn diàn bù guò xiǎo běn jīng yíng ér yǐ ， gàn má yào jiāng wǒ yǔ bì diàn de kè rén quán dōu qiān lián jìn qù 。”， nà shēng yīn jiāo róu dòng tīng yǐ jí ， suí hòu yī gōng zhuāng měi fù jìn rù le shì xiàn lǐ ， kàn shàng qù yuē sān shí ** suì nián jì ， fāng huá yǐ zhú jiàn shì qù ， méi shāo yǎn jiǎo dōu kě yǐ kàn jiàn xiē xǔ yú wěi wén ， rán ér yī jiù zhū yuán yù rùn ， hěn míng xiǎn nián qīng de shí hòu shì yī wèi měi rén 。
一时之间，群修鼓噪了起来，更有一声轻笑传入耳朵：“原来这位居然是大名鼎鼎的墨道友，妾身听说墨道友数百年前就已然陌落，还曾为之悲切过，没想到道友居然好好的活着，真是可喜可贺，然而你与公孙道友间有什么冤仇，自可以找一无人之所，去慢慢解决的，本店不过小本经营而已，干嘛要将我与敝店的客人全都牵连进去。”，那声音娇柔动听以极，随后一宫装美妇进入了视线里，看上去约三十**岁年纪，芳华已逐渐逝去，眉梢眼角都可以看见些许鱼尾玟，然而依旧珠圆玉润，很明显年轻的时候是一位美人。
Before long, a murmur spread among the crowd, followed by a light laugh: "Oh, this must be the famous Master Ink! I heard that he passed away hundreds of years ago and even mourned him. It’s surprising to see him alive and well. Congratulations on your good fortune. However, what grudge do you have with Master Public? You can settle it in an empty place if necessary. This shop is just a small business; why drag me into this?" The voice was soft yet pleasing to the ear. Soon, a beautiful woman dressed in a palace-style robe entered his view. She looked around thirty years old, her beauty fading but still radiant.
“ fēn fāng fū rén ！”， bù shǎo xiū shì shī shēng jīng hū ” cǐ nǚ jiù shì pāi mài huì bèi hòu de diàn zhǔ ， suī shì sàn xiū ， dàn jù shuō yǔ shèng chéng ， yǒu zhe qiān sī wàn lǚ de guān lián ， shǒu yǎn tōng tiān ， ér qiě tā zì jǐ ， jiù shì yī wèi dòng xuán chū qī de xiū shì 。
“芬芳夫人！”，不少修士失声惊呼”此女就是拍卖会背后的店主，虽是散修，但据说与圣城，有着千思万缕的关联，手眼通天，而且她自己，就是一位洞玄初期的修士。
"Madam Fragrance!" Many cultivators begged for mercy. "Master Ink, I have no ill will towards your shop. Everything is this man’s fault..." This fellow's audacity was truly unparalleled; he could lie without a blush.
cǐ shí cǐ kè ” gāi nǚ liǎn shàng ， míng xiǎn dài zhe bù yù zhī sè ， bèi rén tī chǎng zi ， shuí xīn qíng dōu bú huì hǎo de 。
此时此刻”该女脸上，明显带着不豫之色，被人踢场子，谁心情都不会好的。
Flipping the truth upside down mattered not in the cultivation world where success defined one as a hero.
tā rú cǐ shuō ， yǐ suàn shì kè qì ， bì jìng xiū wèi dào le tā men nà ge děng jí ， bú dào wàn bù dé yǐ ， shì bú huì yǔ tóng jiē xiū shì chōng tū dì 。
她如此说，已算是客气，毕竟修为到了他们那个等级，不到万不得已，是不会与同阶修士冲突地。
Madam Fragrance frowned slightly but showed no interest in their feud. She turned to Master Ink: "Master Ink, you know what I mean. If you leave now, I will forgive you. Otherwise..."
gōng bié lǎo mó zé àn àn xīn xǐ ” bié kàn tā mǎn bù zài hū ， dàn nà zhǐ shì biǎo miàn ér yǐ ， zài nèi xīn shēn chù ， tā duì mò lǎo hái shì pǒ yǒu jǐ fēn jì dàn de 。
公别老魔则暗暗欣喜”别看他满不在乎，但那只是表面而已，在内心深处，他对墨老还是颇有几分忌惮的。
Her words left much unsaid, but her intentions were clear. The current situation was unfavorable for the thin old man.
suī shuō tā de ròu shēn yǔ zhǔ yuán yīng ， dōu huǐ zài le zì jǐ de shǒu lǐ ， dàn bú shì měng lóng bù guò jiāng ， duì fāng chǔ xīn jī lǜ ， gǎn zhǎo shàng mén lái ” nà kěn dìng shì yǒu suǒ yǐ zhàng dì 。
虽说他的肉身与主元婴，都毁在了自己的手里，但不是猛龙不过江，对方处心积虑，敢找上门来”那肯定是有所倚仗地。
Two hands could not fight four, facing two same-level cultivators and multiple元婴s, he had no chance at all.
zhè dào lǐ ， tā xīn zhōng yǒu shù ， zhǐ shì biǎo miàn shàng ， wú lùn rú hé ， yě bù kěn shì ruò 。
这道理，他心中有数，只是表面上，无论如何，也不肯示弱。
Of course, Madam Fragrance would not intervene unless necessary; she would not be foolishly used by Public Old Demon.
rán ér zhè mò lǎo yě bù zhī dào nǎo dài yǒu wèn tí ， zhǎo zì jǐ má fán yě jiù bà le ， jū rán shuō chū rú cǐ xiāo zhāng de yán yǔ ” yǔ zài chǎng suǒ yǒu de xiū xiān zhě wèi dí 。
然而这墨老也不知道脑袋有问题，找自己麻烦也就罢了，居然说出如此嚣张的言语”与在场所有的修仙者为敌。
Now it came down to what the thin old man chose. Would he throw a stone against a boulder?
qí tā rén yě jiù bà le ， nà fēn fāng fū rén kě yě shì dòng xuán qī xiū xiān zhě ， ruò yǔ zì jǐ lián shǒu de huà ， miè shā cǐ rén shì fēn háo wèn tí méi yǒu de 。
其他人也就罢了，那芬芳夫人可也是洞玄期修仙者，若与自己联手的话，灭杀此人是分毫问题没有的。
The crowd watched with anticipation, but Lin Xuan's thoughts were different.
nǎo hǎi zhōng niàn tou zhuǎn guò ， gōng sūn lǎo mó yǐ xiǎo de zì jǐ gāi zěn me zuò ” hé zòng lián héng de bǎ xì tā qǐ huì méi yǒu wán guò ne ？
脑海中念头转过，公孙老魔已晓得自己该怎么做”合纵连横的把戏他岂会没有玩过呢？
He had remained silent throughout, observing coldly. The thin old man seemed well-prepared and his reaction suggested clear thinking. What could be his secret support?
yī shēng qīng ké ：“ zài xià jiàn guò fū rén le ， gěi guì diàn dài lái de má fán ， gōng sūn shí zài bào qiàn ” wǒ duì guì diàn ， kě shì sī háo dí yì yě wú ” yī qiè dōu shì zhè xìng mò de zào chéng de ……”
一声轻咳：“在下见过夫人了，给贵店带来的麻烦，公孙实在抱歉”我对贵店，可是丝毫敌意也无”一切都是这姓墨的造成的……”
What was it?
zhè wèi liǎn pí zhī hòu ， yě shì kān chēng yì liú ， shuō qǐ huǎng huà lái ， nà shì yì diǎn dōu bù liǎn hóng 。
这位脸皮之厚，也是堪称一流，说起谎话来，那是一点都不脸红。
Though he did not wish to linger in such a place, Lin Xuan coveted the Five Elements Enveloping Spirit Array deeply. He would not give up easily.
diān dǎo hēi bái suàn shén me ， fǎn zhèng xiū xiān jiè shì yǐ chéng bài lùn yīng xióng 。
颠倒黑白算什么，反正修仙界是以成败论英雄。
He had faced many storms before; this strange scene did not scare him.
fēn fāng fū rén dài méi wēi zhòu ， bù guò zhè liǎng rén jiān de ēn yuàn jiū gé tā shì sī háo xìng qù yě wú ， zhuǎn guò tóu lú ：“ mò dào yǒu ， wǒ de yì si ， xiǎng bì nǐ yě xīn lǐ yǒu shù ， rú guǒ dào yǒu xiàn zài yuàn yì lí kāi cǐ chù ， běn fū rén kě yǐ jì wǎng bù jiù ， fǒu zé ……”， tā de huà méi yǒu shuō wán ， dàn yì si yǐ jīng hěn qīng chǔ ， rú jīn de jú miàn ， bù lùn cóng nǎ ge fāng xiàng kàn ， dōu shì duì gān shòu lǎo zhě bù lì de 。
芬芳夫人黛眉微皱，不过这两人间的恩怨纠葛她是丝毫兴趣也无，转过头颅：“墨道友，我的意思，想必你也心里有数，如果道友现在愿意离开此处，本夫人可以既往不咎，否则……”，她的话没有说完，但意思已经很清楚，如今的局面，不论从哪个方向看，都是对干瘦老者不利的。
Let's see what happens first. Maybe there was still a chance for him to profit from the chaos.
shuāng quán nán dí sì shǒu ， miàn duì liǎng míng tóng jiē de dòng xuán qī xiū xiān zhě ， hái yǒu rú cǐ duō yuán yīng lí hé ， tā sī háo jī huì yě méi yǒu 。
双拳难敌四手，面对两名同阶的洞玄期修仙者，还有如此多元婴离合，他丝毫机会也没有。
Lin Xuan carefully released his spirit sense, observing everything around him. Suddenly, "Pang," a sound echoed in his ears.
dāng rán ， néng bù chū shǒu ， fēn fāng fū rén jǐn liàng bú huì chū shǒu ， tā cái bú huì shǎ shǎ de bèi gōng bié ” lǎo mó suǒ lì yòng 。
当然，能不出手，芬芳夫人尽量不会出手，她才不会傻傻的被公别”老魔所利用。
It seemed out of place. He turned to find an中期元婴 cultivator on the ground, writhing in pain as if poisoned by a剧毒.
liǎng wèi dòng xuán qī lǎo guài dōu yǐ jīng biǎo tài ， rú jīn jiù kàn nà gān shòu lǎo zhě zěn me jué zé ， huì bú huì ná jī dàn qù zhuàng shí tou ne ？
两位洞玄期老怪都已经表态，如今就看那干瘦老者怎么抉择，会不会拿鸡蛋去撞石头呢？
Poisoned!
zhòng xiū shì dōu shì mù yǐ dài ， rán ér lín xuān xīn zhōng de xiǎng fǎ ， què shì lüè yǒu bù tóng 。
众修士都拭目以待，然而林轩心中的想法，却是略有不同。
The thought flashed through his mind, and Lin Xuan's expression grew serious. But before he could use his spirit sense to investigate, more "Pong" sounds followed, one after another, as cultivators fell to their sides.
zhěng gè chōng tū ， tā yì zhí méi yǒu kāi kǒu ， ér shì lěng yǎn páng guān 。
整个冲突，他一直没有开口，而是冷眼旁观。
Those who first fell were中期元婴 cultivators, then the离合期 ones began to wobble.
zhè gān shòu lǎo zhě míng xiǎn shì yǒu yù móu ， ér qiě kàn tā de fǎn yìng ， yě bù xiàng tóu nǎo bù qīng chǔ ， kuā xià hǎi kǒu ， mò fēi shì lìng yǒu shén me yǐ zhàng bù chéng me ？
这干瘦老者明显是有预谋，而且看他的反应，也不像头脑不清楚，夸下海口，莫非是另有什么倚仗不成么？
"How... what have you done?" Public Old Demon was both shocked and angry. Madam Fragrance's face turned pale.
jiū jìng shì shén me ？
究竟是什么？
"I said everyone here would not leave today. How does this taste of仙人醉?" The thin old man sneered with satisfaction on his face.
yuán běn shì fēi zhī dì bù jiǔ liú ， kě nà tào wǔ xíng yùn líng zhèn lín xuān shí zài xīn zhōng kǎi yú ， dāng rán bù yuàn yì jiù zhè yàng fàng qì ， dà fēng dà làng tā jīng lì dé duō le ， yǎn qián de chǎng miàn suī rán yǒu xiē guǐ yì ， yě méi yǒu shén me hǎo pà dì 。
原本是非之地不久留，可那套五行蕴灵阵林轩实在心中凯觎，当然不愿意就这样放弃，大风大浪他经历得多了，眼前的场面虽然有些诡异，也没有什么好怕地。
"仙人醉, you actually found such an ancient毒?"
xiān kàn kàn zài shuō ， yě xǔ zì jǐ hái yǒu jī huì huǒ zhōng qǔ lì 。
先看看再说，也许自己还有机会火中取栗。
Public Old Demon's expression changed to fear. Lin Xuan frowned; he had been in the East Sea cultivation world for so long that he was no stranger to its conditions.
lín xuān xiǎo xīn fàng chū shén shí ， guān chá zhe zhōu zāo de yī qiè ， rán ér jiù zài zhè shí ，“ pēng ”， de yī shēng chuán rù le ěr lǐ 。
林轩小心放出神识，观察着周遭的一切，然而就在这时，“嘭”，的一声传入了耳里。
仙人醉was one of the most potent poisons from ancient times, capable of eroding one’s经脉, leaving them weak and unable to use their法力, even for a洞玄期 cultivator. The most terrifying part was that this poison was odorless and tasteless, able to mix with air and enter a cultivator's body through breathing.
nà shēng yīn xiǎn de yǒu xiē tū wù ， lín xuān máng zhuǎn guò tóu lú ， zhǐ shì zuǒ cè de yī míng yuán yīng zhōng qī xiū xiān zhě ， jìng mò míng qí miào de zāi dǎo zài dì 。
那声音显得有些突兀，林轩忙转过头颅，只是左侧的一名元婴中期修仙者，竟莫名其妙的栽倒在地。
In ancient times, it was feared by all cultivators. It required dozens of rare ingredients to be synthesized successfully.
liǎn shàng mǎn shì tòng kǔ ， jiù fǎng fú zhōng le jù dú 。
脸上满是痛苦，就仿佛中了剧毒。
It was so feared that the formula had been lost over time. Occasionally, remnants could be found in ancient cultivators' ruins, but such discoveries were rare, and this poison had not been seen for tens of thousands of years.
zhòng dú ！
中毒！
Where did this old monster find it?
zhè ge niàn tou zài xīn dǐ huá guò ， lín xuān de biǎo qíng dùn shí níng zhòng qǐ lái le ， rán ér tā hái lái bù jí yòng shén shí chá tàn shén me ， jiē lián yòu yǒu pū tōng pū tōng de shēng yīn chuán rù ěr duǒ ， què shì yí gè xiū shì jiē zhe yí gè xiū shì de shuāi dǎo zài cè 。
这个念头在心底划过，林轩的表情顿时凝重起来了，然而他还来不及用神识查探什么，接连又有噗通噗通的声音传入耳朵，却是一个修士接着一个修士的摔倒在侧。
Lin Xuan was shocked, as were other cultivators who wondered where he got it from.
xiān fā zuò de dōu shì yuán yīng qī xiū xiān zhě ， jǐn jiē zhe lí hé qī xiū shì ， yě kāi shǐ yáo yáo yù zhuì qǐ lái le 。
先发作的都是元婴期修仙者，紧接着离合期修士，也开始摇摇欲坠起来了。
仙人醉was not lethal but left one powerless.
“ chēng …… nǐ jiū jìng zuò le shén me ？”， gōng sūn lǎo mó yòu jīng yòu nù ， fēn fāng fū rén yě shì liǎn sè dà biàn le 。
“称……你究竟做了什么？”，公孙老魔又惊又怒，芬芳夫人也是脸色大变了。
In short, those poisoned would be at the mercy of others.
“ lǎo fū shuō guò ， jīn tiān suǒ yǒu rén ， dōu bié xiǎng jiàn zhe lí kāi cǐ chù ， zěn me yàng ， zhè xiān rén zuì de zī wèi ér rú hé ？” gān shòu lǎo zhě lěng lěng de shuō ， liǎn shàng chōng mǎn liǎo de yì zhī sè 。
“老夫说过，今天所有人，都别想荐着离开此处，怎么样，这仙人醉的滋味儿如何？”干瘦老者冷冷的说，脸上充满了得意之色。
After understanding his situation, many cultivators begged for mercy, using both emotion and reason.
“ xiān rén zuì ， nǐ jìng rán zhǎo dào le zhè zhǒng gǔ dú ？”
“仙人醉，你竟然找到了这种古毒？”
"Senior Ink, I have no grudge with you; please spare me. I will erect a memorial tablet for you when I return."
gōng bié lǎo mó liǎn shàng de biǎo qíng ， yǐ jīng biàn chéng le jīng kǒng ， lín xuān yě shì méi tou yí zhòu ， tā lái dào dōng hǎi xiū xiān jiè zhè me jiǔ ， duì yú cǐ jiè de qíng kuàng ， dāng rán bù zài shì yī wú suǒ zhī le 。
公别老魔脸上的表情，已经变成了惊恐，林轩也是眉头一皱，他来到东海修仙界这么久，对于此界的情况，当然不再是一无所知了。
"Yes, senior, we have always admired your reputation. You should not kill the innocent,"
xiān rén zuì ， nǎi shì shàng gǔ shí qī de jù dú zhī yī ， néng gòu qīn shí rén de jīng mài ， ràng rén hún shēn suān ruǎn ， bù néng qū shǐ fǎ lì ， jí biàn shì dòng xuán qī xiū xiān zhě ， yě bù néng dǐ yù ， bù guò zuì lì hài de ， hái shì cǐ dú nǎi shì wú sè wú wèi zhī wù ， néng gòu róng rù kōng qì ， bàn suí zhe tǔ nà hū xī ， jiù néng róng rù xiū shì de shēn tǐ ， shā rén yú wú xíng 。
仙人醉，乃是上古时期的剧毒之一，能够侵蚀人的经脉，让人浑身酸软，不能驱使法力，即便是洞玄期修仙者，也不能抵御，不过最厉害的，还是此毒乃是无色无味之物，能够融入空气，伴随着吐纳呼吸，就能融入修士的身体，杀人于无形。
"I am a disciple of Ghost Cloud Sect. If you kill me, my sect will never let it go. Why provoke an enemy?"
zài shàng gǔ zhī shí ， nǎi shì lìng zhòng xiū shì tán zhī sè biàn de bǎo wù ， jù shuō ， cǐ dú yào yòng shù shí zhǒng zhēn xī yuán liào ， hǎo bù róng yì cái néng liàn zhì chéng gōng 。
在上古之时，乃是令众修士谈之色变的宝物，据说，此毒要用数十种珍稀原料，好不容易才能炼制成功。
"Senior, if you spare me, I can offer you treasures as compensation."
lìng zhòng xiū xiān zhě tán zhī biàn sè ， kě xī shì yì shí yí ， hòu lái bù zhī zěn de ， cǐ dú de pèi fāng yǐ jīng shī chuán le 。
令众修仙者谈之变色，可惜事易时移，后来不知怎的，此毒的配方已经失传了。
Various voices echoed, all begging for mercy.
ǒu ěr cóng gǔ xiū shì de yí jì ， néng gòu fā xiàn yì diǎn chéng pǐn de xiān rén zuì gǔ dú ， rán ér jù lí shàng cì fā xiàn cǐ dú ， yǐ jīng guò qù le shù shí wàn zài ， hòu lái jiù yì zhí xiāo shēng nì jì diào le 。
偶尔从古修士的遗迹，能够发现一点成品的仙人醉古毒，然而距离上次发现此毒，已经过去了数十万载，后来就一直销声匿迹掉了。
Lin Xuan remained calm; he was the only one who did not panic.
zhè lǎo guài wù ， jiū jìng shì cóng nǎ lǐ zhǎo dào de ？
这老怪物，究竟是从哪里找到的？
The仙人醉was indeed terrifying, but the Illusory Spirit Heavenly Fire was too powerful. It had evolved to include toxic, freezing, and devouring properties, each capable of affecting cultivators differently. Toxicity was its foundation as it originated from碧幻幽火.
bù zhǐ lín xuān dà gǎn jīng è ， zhè zhǒng yí wèn yě zài qí tā xiū shì xīn lǐ fú xiàn ér chū 。
不止林轩大感惊愕，这种疑问也在其他修士心里浮现而出。
Due to his cultivation in this secret art, most toxins did not affect Lin Xuan.
xiān rén zuì gǔ dú bú huì zhì mìng ， dàn què néng lìng rén fǎ lì quán wú 。
仙人醉古毒不会致命，但却能令人法力全无。
He was unsure if the Illusory Spirit Heavenly Fire could resist 仙人醉, but the result was surprising and pleasing. The fire seemed immune and even benefited him; once inside his经脉, it was absorbed.
jiǎn dān de shuō ， jiù shì zhōng le cǐ dú ， jiù huì rèn rén zǎi gē 。
简单的说，就是中了此毒，就会任人宰割。
Lin Xuan's heart calmed down. As long as he did not get poisoned, there was no need to fear!~!
The old demon's harsh voice echoed in his ears. Since they had already broken their truce, what was there left to be polite about? "Previously, my cultivation was inferior to yours. However, your main元婴 has been destroyed. This body you possess is merely a second元婴 that took over another’s life; how can it possibly be arrogant? The last time I managed to eliminate you, this time, you will not escape from my hands."
"Is that so?" The thin old man chuckled. "Old Demon Public, do you really think I came here unprepared for revenge? This place will be your grave. Not only you, but every cultivator present will not survive. Who let fate bring us together? Blame yourself for having such bad luck."
"What?" Everyone was startled by his words. His tone seemed too presumptuous, as if he intended to challenge all the cultivators here and even massacre them. Such arrogance had never been seen before.
Everyone had witnessed arrogant people, but none so bold as this.
Was everyone present just paper puppets?
Before long, a murmur spread among the crowd, followed by a light laugh: "Oh, this must be the famous Master Ink! I heard that he passed away hundreds of years ago and even mourned him. It’s surprising to see him alive and well. Congratulations on your good fortune. However, what grudge do you have with Master Public? You can settle it in an empty place if necessary.

Her words left much unsaid, but her intentions were clear. The current situation was unfavorable for the thin old man.
Two hands could not fight four, facing two same-level cultivators and multiple元婴s, he had no chance at all.
Of course, Madam Fragrance would not intervene unless necessary; she would not be foolishly used by Public Old Demon.
Now it came down to what the thin old man chose. Would he throw a stone against a boulder?
The crowd watched with anticipation, but Lin Xuan's thoughts were different.
He had remained silent throughout, observing coldly. The thin old man seemed well-prepared and his reaction suggested clear thinking. What could be his secret support?

Poisoned!
The thought flashed through his mind, and Lin Xuan's expression grew serious. But before he could use his spirit sense to investigate, more "Pong" sounds followed, one after another, as cultivators fell to their sides.
Those who first fell were中期元婴 cultivators, then the离合期 ones began to wobble.
"How... what have you done?" Public Old Demon was both shocked and angry. Madam Fragrance's face turned pale.
"I said everyone here would not leave today. How does this taste of仙人醉?" The thin old man sneered with satisfaction on his face.
"仙人醉, you actually found such an ancient毒?"
Public Old Demon's expression changed to fear. Lin Xuan frowned; he had been in the East Sea cultivation world for so long that he was no stranger to its conditions.
仙人醉was one of the most potent poisons from ancient times, capable of eroding one’s经脉, leaving them weak and unable to use their法力, even for a洞玄期 cultivator. The most terrifying part was that this poison was odorless and tasteless, able to mix with air and enter a cultivator's body through breathing.
In ancient times, it was feared by all cultivators. It required dozens of rare ingredients to be synthesized successfully.
It was so feared that the formula had been lost over time. Occasionally, remnants could be found in ancient cultivators' ruins, but such discoveries were rare, and this poison had not been seen for tens of thousands of years.
Where did this old monster find it?
Lin Xuan was shocked, as were other cultivators who wondered where he got it from.
仙人醉was not lethal but left one powerless.
In short, those poisoned would be at the mercy of others.
After understanding his situation, many cultivators begged for mercy, using both emotion and reason.
"Senior Ink, I have no grudge with you; please spare me. I will erect a memorial tablet for you when I return."
"Yes, senior, we have always admired your reputation. You should not kill the innocent,"
"I am a disciple of Ghost Cloud Sect. If you kill me, my sect will never let it go. Why provoke an enemy?"
"Senior, if you spare me, I can offer you treasures as compensation."
Various voices echoed, all begging for mercy.
Lin Xuan remained calm; he was the only one who did not panic.
The仙人醉was indeed terrifying, but the Illusory Spirit Heavenly Fire was too powerful. It had evolved to include toxic, freezing, and devouring properties, each capable of affecting cultivators differently. Toxicity was its foundation as it originated from碧幻幽火.
Due to his cultivation in this secret art, most toxins did not affect Lin Xuan.
He was unsure if the Illusory Spirit Heavenly Fire could resist 仙人醉, but the result was surprising and pleasing. The fire seemed immune and even benefited him; once inside his经脉, it was absorbed.
Lin Xuan's heart calmed down. As long as he did not get poisoned, there was no need to fear!~!
