Nine Dragons Saint Ancestor

”This guy must be connected to the Nine-layered Dragon Cloud’s Lu Family!”

The moment Yun Xiao recognized the Heavenly Wave Soul Capture, he realized something: this guy called Xie Tianwan, and possibly even his teacher Lu Tianwen, likely have ties with the Nine-layered Dragon Cloud’s Lu Family.

Initially, Yun Xiao thought that his rebirth might only allow him to encounter people and matters from his past life after returning to the Nine-layered Dragon Cloud, yet he hadn’t anticipated that on this Tenglong Continent, numerous old affairs would come rushing forth.

However, since he’s encountered them, Yun Xiao will certainly seek clarity, and with these people targeting him so intensely, could it be that Lu Qinwan of the Nine-layered Dragon Cloud, or even Emperor Canglong, has discovered something?

If he were an ordinary cultivator, even a Heavenly Rank Low Level Meridian Refining Master, when faced with this Heavenly Wave Soul Capture, he’d likely be flustered, and the ultimate result might very well be getting controlled by this technique.

But who is Yun Xiao? Although this is a secret poison of the Nine-layered Dragon Cloud’s Lu Family, his past life’s experiences saw him encounter this poison many times, given Lu Qinwan was his wife for quite a while.

Therefore, in the next moment, everyone, including Xie Tianwan, clearly saw Yun Xiao hit by that green light, seemingly enveloped entirely by a layer of green hue.

They all knew it was the explosion of the green light’s poison; what followed was to see whether the coarse-clothed young man with such a great reputation could withstand it.

In contrast, Xie Tianwan, struck by the green light unleashed by Yun Xiao, was unaffected, as if nothing had occurred, leaving this Spirit Fighting Commerce genius somewhat perplexed.

Xie Tianwan had no idea that what Yun Xiao exhibited wasn’t something these Meridian Refining Masters of Tenglong Continent understood, also passing down from the Nine-layered Dragon Cloud.

Although Yun Xiao’s poison methods didn’t seem remarkable, likewise, even if the Earth Rank Advanced Meridian Refining geniuses of Tenglong Continent bore it, they’d be left dealing with severe consequences, let alone this Earth Rank Advanced genius Xie Tianwan.

Since his body showed no abnormalities, Xie Tianwan no longer bothered and steadfastly stared at the coarse-clothed young man, knowing perhaps soon his poison would manifest its excellent effects.

When the Heavenly Wave Soul Capture initially touched Yun Xiao, it transformed into a green light screen, and a certain power within attempted to invade his mind to control his soul — the so-called ”Soul Capture.”

However, Yun Xiao, extremely familiar with this poison, need not even tap into Little Dragon’s One Thought to Solve Myriad Poisons; he could easily neutralize it using simple methods.

Outwardly, Yun Xiao remained still, while inwardly, his power of soul shook violently, disintegrating the poison energy attempting to seize his soul without inflicting even the slightest harm.

As the power of the Soul Capture dissipated, the green light shield surrounding Yun Xiao also dimmed instantly before vanishing.

Yet the coarse-clothed young man everyone watched remained as calm as ever, slowly lifting his gaze toward Xie Tianwan, leading everyone to believe he had neutralized that so-called Heavenly Rank poison.

”I knew it; there’s no way Yun Xiao could lose!”

Standing nearby, watching the battle, Sky Poison Institute genius Si Mo’s words seemed predetermined, but anyone could sense the relief in his tone.

Honestly, seeing the formidable poison Xie Tianwan unleashed, Si Mo had his doubts inwardly, despite not voicing them.

He knew Yun Xiao’s combative prowess was overwhelming — ten times Xie Tianwan couldn’t be his match — but this time Xie Tianwan acted despicably, utilizing someone else’s crafted Heavenly Rank poison.

Ultimately, though Yun Xiao just broke through to the Heavenly Rank Third Realm, whether his Meridian Refining Technique has reached Heavenly Rank Low Level is still uncertain.

Under the rampant spread of Heavenly Rank poison, neither Si Mo nor Ye Ku were too confident, fearing Yun Xiao would suffer miserably under that poison.

Now, with the green light screen surrounding Yun Xiao dissipating, his complexion remained rosy, displaying the same calm demeanor as before, undoubtedly putting all Refining Cloud Mountain disciples at ease.

Suddenly, they found all their worries about the coarse-clothed young man unwarranted; that guy was akin to a Banished Immortal who’d never let anyone down, effortlessly resolving any situation.

”Next, that Xie Tianwan might be in trouble!”

Chuckling lightly with a hint of schadenfreude, a Sky Poison Institute genius beside Si Mo spoke up, a smirk of anticipation appearing on his face as their gaze shifted to the Spirit Fighting Commerce Meridian Refining genius.

Truth be told, Xie Tianwan was insufferably arrogant, defeating many strong Meridian Refining geniuses from Refining Cloud Mountain, eventually toppling even Ye Ku, essentially trampling Refining Cloud Mountain’s reputation on the ground.

But now, as Yun Xiao emerged and forcefully turned the tables, how wouldn’t these Refining Cloud Mountain disciples be elated? That arrogant guy was soon to face humiliation.

”Now, can you tell me about the origin of Qin’s Enchanting Fragrance Dew and Heavenly Wave Soul Capture?”

Yun Xiao was not as concerned as the onlookers. As he looked calmly at Xie Tianwan, his words made the latter’s face reveal a cold smile.

”Yun Xiao, I admit you’re impressive, but didn’t your poison fail to harm me? We just had a draw, so why should I answer you?”

Xie Tianwan was curious about the names of those two poisons but did not think too much about it. At this moment, he responded with a cold laugh, though he seemed to forget some facts.

To be honest, the green light that Yun Xiao had unleashed earlier did hit Xie Tianwan, but the latter never felt any strangeness.

The green light seemed to vanish into thin air as soon as it entered Xie Tianwan’s body, or it was like a drop of water in the ocean, leaving him unable to sense it at all.

During this period, Xie Tianwan did not entirely ignore the poison Yun Xiao cast. After all, Yun Xiao’s reputation was known, and letting one’s guard down might lead to a tragic outcome.

No matter how Xie Tianwan sensed, the green light seemed to disappear like a stone sinking into the sea, until Yun Xiao suddenly asked, and a surge of confidence appeared out of nowhere.

Usually, when a poison invades the body, there are signs, such as corroding the flesh or affecting the meridians, but Xie Tianwan did not sense any of these.

For a moment, he believed it was his essence as an Earth Rank Advanced Meridian Refining Master that neutralized the poison entering his body in an instant, a discovery that both surprised and delighted him.

Or perhaps that poorly dressed boy was just putting on airs, his appearance believable but lacking any real skill, and the green light he released was merely a pretentious display.

In any case, Xie Tianwan remained quite confident in his Meridian Refining Technique. He believed that even if the opponent was truly a Heavenly Rank Meridian Refining Master, it was impossible for the poison they cast to be entirely undetectable, right?

”A draw?”

Suddenly hearing Xie Tianwan’s confident words, Yun Xiao was initially stunned, then shook his head with a faint smile, then gently hooked his right index finger.

”Ah!”

With a slight movement of Yun Xiao’s right index finger, the response from Spirit Fighting Commerce’s genius Xie Tianwan was enormous. A painful scream erupted as his legs couldn’t help but kneel to the ground.

At this moment, Xie Tianwan felt as if a thousand small knives suddenly appeared inside his body, ready to slice through all his muscles and veins.

If it were only this kind of pain, Xie Tianwan, as an Earth Rank Advanced Meridian Refining Master, would not have lost composure, because amidst the pain, there seemed to be countless ants biting him, causing unbearable agony and itchiness.

This situation was a crisscross of slow torture and an itch penetrating to the soul, making Xie Tianwan unable to hold on at first instance. He realized he had underestimated that boy whose reputation was soaring.

This was not a matter of unintentionally neutralizing the poison; clearly, Yun Xiao had hidden the poison using a special method, leaving him utterly incapable of detecting it.

Such an extraordinary technique displayed upon the explosion of the poison, letting Xie Tianwan know the disparity between them, perhaps not even comparable at all.

Xie Tianwan could even imagine that if possible, the initial green light from the opponent could have vanished instantly, leaving one defenseless.

Here, it’s an onsite duel, and neither party can dodge each other’s poison, which is why Yun Xiao did not resort to more tactics.

Thinking of this and sensing the poison and itchy sensation spreading inside his body, the genius of Spirit Fighting Commerce instantly appeared ashen-faced, as if aging decades in an instant, drained of spirit.

Xie Tianwan found himself a bit laughable, believing that after reaching the Earth Rank Advanced Meridian Refining Master level, and possessing the Heavenly Rank Low Level poison provided by that adult, he could act as he pleased.

Yet, facing that poorly dressed boy, such confidence was utterly fragile.

The opponent, with just a slight show of skill, shattered all his confidence, revealing that they were not on the same level at all.

The pain and itchiness inside him grew stronger. The dignified genius of Spirit Fighting Commerce was now rolling on the ground cradling his head. Witnessing this scene, countless observing talents were both astonished and horrified.
