Chapter 83: Godfall Poison! The Plan to Kill Ouyang Xun with Poison!
As for what Xiao Xuan had said about his cultivation arts still remaining at the level of Mastery, that was already quite good. Those were Peak Twelfth-Tier cultivation arts. At his current age and strength, the fact that he could already control Peak Twelfth-Tier cultivation arts of that level
meant the boost to his combat power would be absolutely terrifying!
And on top of that, over the next five thousand years, Xiao Xuan could continue cultivating.
In that regard, he was even stronger than Mu Xiying, because unlike Xiao Xuan, whenever Mu Xiying crossed into the future, she would lose all the memories she currently possessed!
But Xiao Xuan would not.
That was the greatest advantage of all.
“The only question is whether we will still be able to go to the future next time. If we can, then we need to plan things there properly!”
Xiao Xuan said seriously.
“Yes, that is true! The question is how we plan it. That in itself is a troublesome matter.”
Mu Xiying nodded, then frowned.
“Both you and I have awakened the Earth Sovereign trait. That means as long as Earth becomes stronger, both our strengths will rise with it!”
“So our first path of development can begin with increasing Earth’s overall strength!”
Xiao Xuan laid out his thoughts.
“Raising the strength of humanity’s geniuses is not too difficult, but raising the overall strength of the human race is no simple matter at all!”
“As for strengthening Earth as a whole, that is even harder!”
Mu Xiying said gravely.
“That is true. With enough medicinal materials, along with powerful alchemy, we can only raise the strength of humanity’s geniuses.”
“As for the overall strength of humanity, that would require making powerful cultivation arts public. But the strength of a cultivation art still depends on having sufficient talent to cultivate it!”
“If a person’s talent is not high enough, then no matter how powerful the cultivation art is, they will not be able to master it.”
Xiao Xuan nodded in agreement.
“Exactly. And there is another point. No matter how strong Earth becomes, Earth Sovereign can at most rise to Dark Gold.”
“If it is to reach an even higher level, Earth’s capacity may simply be insufficient.”
“So for now, we still need to find other ways to increase our strength. For example, raising your talent!”
“My talent can also improve somewhat, but even the slightest increase is incredibly difficult.”
“But you are different. Every time you return from the future, your talent undergoes a qualitative leap.”
“And from what I can see, your talent seems related to the people you kill. Is it that you can absorb the talents of those you kill?”
At that point, Mu Xiying looked at Xiao Xuan seriously.
Hearing that, Xiao Xuan was not surprised in the slightest.
After all, his future self had been able to use Tian Ji’s talent as well as Ouyang Zhantian’s talent. From that alone, it was easy enough to guess.
“That’s right. Sister Ying really is clever to have guessed it so quickly.”
Xiao Xuan nodded.
When Mu Xiying heard Xiao Xuan admit it, her pupils contracted slightly.
Such a heaven-defying talent really did belong to Xiao Xuan.
“Then does that mean that if I were killed by you, you could absorb my talent as well?”
“If five thousand years pass and we still cannot defeat that Evil God and the black fog, then this would be our final option!”
Mu Xiying suddenly looked at Xiao Xuan and spoke with complete seriousness.
“I will never lay a hand on you!!!!”
Yet Xiao Xuan rejected the idea outright.
“Do not refuse yet. If that time really comes, I want you to do it!”
“At the very least, you, my parents, and the human race will all survive.”
“I hope you will take my talent and protect my parents in my place!”
Mu Xiying said gravely, and there was even a trace of pleading in her voice.
But when Xiao Xuan heard those words, a smile appeared at the corners of his mouth.
“You misunderstood me, Sister Ying! What I meant was this: five thousand years is more than enough for me to completely deal with that black fog!”
“If I had that kind of talent and still could not deal with a mere black fog in five thousand years, then how would I be any different from a useless waste?”
Xiao Xuan spoke calmly, but the confidence and pride in his tone left Mu Xiying momentarily dazed.
For an instant, she seemed to see the scene of Xiao Xuan finally destroying the black fog.
“In that case, I will do everything I can to help you raise your talent!”
Mu Xiying drew a deep breath, then finally spoke to Xiao Xuan with solemn determination.
...
“Then I’ll thank you in advance, Sister Ying. But the most urgent matter right now is still dealing with Ouyang Xun!”
Xiao Xuan smiled. Yet the moment he mentioned Ouyang Xun, endless killing intent rose in his eyes!
Mu Xiying was the same.
“Killing a mere Ouyang Xun is not difficult!”
Mu Xiying said coldly.
“Oh? Sister Ying already has a plan?”
Xiao Xuan’s eyes lit up.
“I do. Just because the me of the past could not do it does not mean the me from the future cannot.”
“I know of a poison that will only appear one thousand seven hundred years from now.”
“This poison is colorless, odorless, formless, and traceless.”
“Once refined, it can kill even Martial Gods.”
“That is why this poison is known as Godfall Poison!”
“There are only two kinds of people who can resist it.”
“The first are those whose strength surpasses the Martial God Realm and has reached the Supreme Realm.”
“The second are those who possess Poison Immunity at Gold grade or above.”
“As for the first type, forget it for now. If we had that kind of strength, a mere Ouyang Xun could be erased with a breath!”
“But as for Gold Poison Immunity, that is simple enough.”
“There was once a powerful poison-path prodigy from Imperial Capital University who possessed exactly such a gold trait!”
“As for the materials, they are not too difficult to obtain. The medicinal repository of Imperial Capital University has them.”
“It is just that they are rather expensive.”
Mu Xiying spoke slowly.
“Only Gold Poison Immunity can resist it completely?”
“Then if you refine it, won’t you be poisoned as well?”
Xiao Xuan frowned at once.
“It doesn’t matter. The genius I know of had a Poison Immunity talent that not only neutralized poison, but also allowed him to devour poison and increase his own strength through it.”
“In the timeline I lived through, that person spent all his time cultivating ever more powerful poisons in order to raise his strength quickly.”
“One thousand seven hundred years later, he cultivated a poison capable of killing even Martial Gods.”
“And that poison is precisely the Godfall Poison I intend to refine!”
“But only a few days after refining that Godfall Poison, Li Xie suddenly released a poison over an enormous area and killed the populations of more than a hundred cities! The number of dead totaled more than a trillion!”
“Fortunately, I immediately guessed that Li Xie had most likely killed him.”
“Otherwise, if he had gone on to unleash poisons on that scale several more times, the entire Earth might well have been wiped out by the poisons he refined!”
Mu Xiying’s gaze turned grave.
That had been a disaster on the level of a world-ending calamity.
“Damn, what kind of poison did he create that it was that terrifying?”
“Even Godfall Poison would probably pale in comparison, wouldn’t it?”
