Five Poisons Sect Master Lan Zhaoyun, along with his Left and Right Protectors, walked the mysterious path through the dense forest, heading towards the deeper part of the valley.

Thick shadows from trees loomed on both sides, and from the dense foliage, one could occasionally hear a rustling sound.

As they walked, these three high-ranking members of the Five Poisons Sect felt countless cold gazes from the shadows of the forest, watching them intently.

These gazes were restless and fierce, as if filled with boundless brutality, wanting to pounce on them and tear them apart at any moment.

However, every time the agitation became unbearable, a faint fragrance would drift from the three people, infiltrating the dense forest.

As the fragrance appeared, those restless gazes in the forest began to retreat, seemingly disgusted and afraid of the smell.

But once they retreated a certain distance and escaped the range of the fragrance, the gazes would break free of the disgusted and fearful emotions, surging forward again, only to be driven back by the fragrance.

This cycle continued endlessly, as if it would never tire.

These gazes were so persistent, seemingly wanting to rip apart anyone who dared to enter this forest.

“The Sacred Insects in the Sacred Insect Forest have become more ferocious and difficult to control,” the Left Protector, who was in charge of the sect’s external affairs, remarked.

Due to his work in the Jianghu, he rarely returned to the sect, and when he did, it was usually to report to the sect master before rushing off again.

As a result, it had been over a decade since he had last set foot in this place called the Sacred Insect Forest within the sect.

Now, upon returning and witnessing the forest’s Sacred Insects more fierce than before, he couldn’t help but lament, “Even the aura of our own Sacred Insect Technique can’t suppress these Sacred Insects.”

The legends of the bottomless pit in this valley originated from these Sacred Insects in the forest, or more precisely, the ten thousand poisonous insects.

Anyone who entered the forest would be attacked by these poisonous insects.

Even the top martial artists in Jianghu could not escape death if they fell into this swarm.

This place, naturally, was considered forbidden ground.

Upon hearing this, the Right Protector nodded in agreement, “That’s true. Left Protector, you rarely return to the sect and visit the Sacred Insect Forest, so you don’t know much about the changes in the Sacred Insects.

I’ll tell you, the last time I entered this forest alone, the Sacred Insects came within almost ten yards of me.

Even the aura of my Sacred Insect Technique alone was barely enough to suppress them, and they almost reached me.

I feel that in a few more years, the forest’s Sacred Insects will become even more powerful. Even our top-level Sacred Insect Technique practitioners may be attacked.”

The Sacred Insect Technique mentioned by the two Protectors was the supreme Mental Technique passed down through the Five Poisons Sect for thousands of years.

Within the sect, only the Sect Master, the Holy Maiden, the Holy Son, and the Left and Right Protectors could cultivate it.

The core concept of this technique was refining the Ten Thousand Sacred Insects, also known as the Ten Thousand Poisonous Insects, into one’s body, ultimately creating a Ten Thousand Saint Body immune to all poisons.

After gathering the Ten Thousand Poisons, the Sacred Insect Technique would achieve major success, and the cultivators would become a Ten Thousand

Poison Body, with poison accompanying their every breath and movement.

It was said that at this level, even a single hair from the Ten Thousand Poison Body could poison a strong bull, and a drop of blood could poison an entire village.

At this point, a person would become the most toxic substance in the world.

Once someone became such a poisonous creature, they would naturally begin to take on inhuman characteristics.

As a result, rumors began to spread in the Jianghu that the Five Poisons Sect’s Sacred Insect Technique could only be cultivated to the Innate Realm.

The basis for these rumors was the Ten Thousand Poison Body.

“Enough. The forest’s Sacred Insects have become more powerful because of the resources our sect has spent over hundreds of years cultivating them.”

Now that the Holy Maiden has broken through to the Innate Realm and begun cultivating the Ten Thousand Saint Body,

once it is fully cultivated, all the Sacred Insect Forest’s poisons will be absorbed into her body.

At that time, these Sacred Insects will naturally be gone. There’s no need to worry about them overpowering your techniques.”

Hearing his subordinates’ conversation, Sect Master Lan Zhaoyun leading the way could not help but turn around and reprimand them.

Both Left and Right Protectors immediately nodded their heads, no longer speaking and continued their journey in silence.

In silence, the three of them quickly passed through the dense forest.

As they left the forest, a wide-bottomless pool appeared before their eyes, with steam and mist rising from its surface.

Below the pool’s surface, countless deadly poisonous insects that would change an outsider’s complexion were immersed: centipedes, spiders, venomous snakes, toads, lizards, poisonous ants, wasps, mantises, and more, both named and nameless, all soaked in the deep pool.

Besides the insects soaked in the pool, numerous poisonous insects continuously emerged from the dense forest nearby and then entered the pool without any hesitation.

Witnessing this grand sight of countless insects entering the pool, even Lan Zhaoyun and the two Protectors, who were adept at manipulating poisonous insects, could not help but feel their eyelids twitching.

Although this was not their first time seeing it, Lan Zhaoyun could not help but feel his heart palpitate every time he saw it.

He took a deep breath, restraining the tremor in his heart, and then looked towards the young girl floating on the pool’s surface, calling out, “Cai’er.”

The young girl sat cross-legged on the surface of the pool, her feet submerged in the water. An invisible force emanated from her soles, attracting the myriad poisons of the insects in the pool.

The poison flowed into the girl’s body through her soles, turning her feet into a dazzling array of colors, which then spread throughout her body along her meridians, rendering her entire body in various colorful hues.

Upon hearing the call, the girl, who had her brows knitted in concentration, slowly opened her eyes and looked towards the distant caller. Seeing who had arrived, her face, now dyed with various poisonous colors, broke into a smile:

“Father.”

Her crisp voice, like the song of an oriole, was extremely enchanting.

However, Lan Zhaoyun’s Left and Right Protectors, upon seeing the Holy Maiden’s current appearance, couldn’t help but shudder in fear.

Even though they knew her current appearance was only a temporary transformation during cultivation and that she would regain her beautiful looks once her Ten Thousand Saint Body was fully formed, they couldn’t deny that her current appearance was truly terrifying to behold..
