Chapter 308: Chapter 0304: Assassin
In the dark cave, an ordinary jade stone provided illumination.
A burly Scarred Man sat cross-legged on the ground, grinding some medicine powder.
“Hehe, this ‘Red Flame Poison Flower’ combined with ‘Cold Corrosive Bamboo’ produces an even fiercer toxin. Even someone in the Late Innate stage would feel as if they were burning in fierce fire and suffering from intense cold, it’s almost worse than death. It’s extremely toxic even to those at the Innate Peak,”
Scarred Man chuckled evilly.
“Once I finish preparing it, those chasing after me will pay a bloody price!”
A ruthless light swirled in Scarred Man’s eyes.
Not long after.
Scarred Man successfully refined the poison and stored it in a small black bottle.
“Who’s there?”
Scarred Man’s expression suddenly changed as he looked towards the entrance of the cave.
Soon, a young man in animal skin armour entered his sight.
“I’m here to take your life.”
Chen Yu said calmly, with a confident smile.
“Haha, such a young kid, but with such a big attitude!”
Upon hearing this, Scarred Man burst out laughing.
“Outside the cave, I’ve set up ‘Phantom Soul Mist,’ and every inch inside the cave is covered with my strong poison. The deeper you go, the stronger the poison. You must be feeling the discomfort and unbearable itching by now. Whether you can even make it to me is a question, hahaha…”
Scarred Man looked at Chen Yu as if he were already a dead man, nonchalantly revealing this to let Chen Yu die without any doubts.
“I don’t feel any discomfort.”
Chen Yu stated truthfully.
After cultivating the True Copper Statue, he had a strong resistance to all poisons and had also taken a Detoxification Pill before entering the poison mist forest.
“Heh, the young man sure knows how to pretend. If you have the guts, keep coming forward…”
Scarred Man sneered, disdain evident as he thought Chen Yu was nearing death but still pretending.
“Keep coming?”
Chen Yu revealed a playful smile.
Bang!
He stomped fiercely with his right foot, creating a crater on the spot, and his body soared out, rushing towards Scarred Man.
“What?”
Scarred Man’s expression shifted dramatically.
Logically, Chen Yu, having been poisoned, should have been unable to mobilize his True Qi or exert much strength, yet how was Chen Yu so fast?
Could it be that he really wasn’t poisoned?
“Hmph, it seems you have some kind of poison-avoiding treasure on you!”
Scarred Man was convinced of this.
Otherwise, there was no way Chen Yu, at the Early Innate stage, could have come within three meters of him.
Boom!
Scarred Man immediately stood up and threw a punch.
His arm was colorful and covered with many scarred pustules, looking extremely revolting.
Boom!
Scarred Man’s arm collided with Chen Yu’s shiny copper fist.
A “Bang!” was heard, and a bone-crushing pain emanated from Scarred Man’s arm; he himself was pushed back by a tremendous force, hitting the cavern wall and dislodging some rocks.
“How is this possible?”
Scarred Man stared at Chen Yu in disbelief.
He himself, at the Late Innate stage, was pushed back by a punch from a little guy in the Early Innate stage. Although he didn’t use his full strength, it should have been enough to kill any ordinary Early Innate cultivator.
This little fellow’s strength was astonishingly strong.
“You must be one of the academy’s geniuses, but you’ll end up dying here no matter what. My nickname is Poison Dragon, but it’s not just about my name; it’s about this hand of mine. Anyone touched by this hand will be contaminated with hundreds of toxins…”
Scarred Man looked at Chen Yu, chuckling evilly.
Chen Yu seemed young and strong, undoubtedly a genius from the academy.
But such geniuses are naive and arrogant, easier to deal with than the military forces of Tianhe Prefecture.
However.
When Scarred Man looked at Chen Yu’s fist, his laughter abruptly stopped.
He saw that Chen Yu’s fist was like it was cast from bronze and iron, covered in ancient copper patterns and emanating a light yellow glow, showing no signs of being invaded by toxins.
“Damn it.”
Scarred Man’s expression darkened, realizing he had encountered a tough opponent.
“Die.”
Scarred Man’s figure fiercely lunged forward, intent on killing.
But as he nearly reached Chen Yu, his figure abruptly shifted, avoiding Chen Yu and heading toward the cave entrance.
He never fought head-on unless he was sure of killing his opponent.
Before fleeing, Scarred Man opened a small black bottle he was holding, dispersing a cloud of red and blue powder.
“Hehe, taste my new poison.”
Scarred Man sneered cruelly as he retreated.
But just then, a piercing pain shot through the sole of his foot, as if he had stepped on a nail.
Whoosh!
A dark blue light spot passed through the sole of his foot, quickly fleeing away.
On the other side.
Chen Yu’s hand summoned a Giant Ruler Sword, swinging it fiercely as a whistling wind and evil Qi scattered the red and blue powder in front of him.
“Die!”
Chen Yu’s figure burst forward, slashing with his sword.
“No…”
Scarred Man screamed in terror.
Chen Yu’s burst of speed was even faster than before, reaching him in an instant.
Puff!
One slash, and a head flew off, rolling away into the distance.
“Never underestimate these evil men who live on the edge of death.”
Compared to cultivators of the same rank from the academy, these evildoers might be weaker but were far more ruthless and experienced, making it easy to fall into their traps.
If not for Chen Yu’s True Copper Statue offering immense resistance to toxins, even he might have had a hard time dealing with Poison Dragon.
Hiss!
Chen Yu’s body was contaminated with quite a bit of poison powder, continuously eroding his body.
Fortunately, the amount of poison powder was small, and Chen Yu forcefully activated his true body, quickly expelling all the toxins.
“This poison is not bad!”
Chen Yu’s True Copper Statue couldn’t be fully immune to this poison, which shows how potent it is, not weaker than the venom of the Green Moss Poison Mushroom.
Chen Yu took away the small black bottle from the hands of Scarred Man, as well as his storage bag.
“Hehe.”
Chen Yu grinned.
Although bounty missions were dangerous, they were lucrative. Once he killed a wanted target, he would also get the possessions on them.
There were countless toxic materials inside Scarred Man’s storage bag, along with seven or eight thousand Grade Essence Stones, several precious gemstones, and martial arts techniques.
Then, Chen Yu put Scarred Man’s head in a bag and placed it in the storage bag.
Leaving the cave, Chen Yu prepared to return to the academy.
But just then, Chen Yu felt a sudden leap in his heart, feeling a wave of danger sending shivers down his spine.
Whoosh! Whoosh!
Two shadowy figures stealthily appeared on both sides behind Chen Yu, each wielding a short blade aiming for his neck.
Even then, the two assassins didn’t make much noise as they silently stabbed with their blades.
“Scram!”
Chen Yu roared, activating his True Copper Statue and calling upon the Evil Qi.
Boom! The bronze radiance and the black evil wind, along with the sudden explosive force of his physique, burst forth.

Chen Yu’s figure instantly enlarged, turning into a giant bronze Buddha.
Ding! Hiss!
After enlarging, the assassins’ short blades stabbed into Chen Yu’s back.
One gray short blade left only a superficial scratch, while the other black blade actually pierced through Chen Yu’s defense, stabbing into his flesh.
“Late Innate.”
Chen Yu’s face hardened.
The two assassins, one seemed to have just reached Late Innate while the other had reached Innate Peak, their strength not inferior to the top fighters of the same level from the four major academies.
Moreover, as assassins, they possessed extreme explosive power, striking a deadly blow when they attacked.
If it wasn’t for Chen Yu having achieved the True Copper Statue, allowing him to enlarge greatly, he would probably have died by now under an unguarded situation.
“Eh?”
Both assassins showed surprise.
“Who sent you to assassinate me?”
Chen Yu asked coldly, his face frosty.
From their voices and figures, it was clear one was a male and the other a female.
“Go ask King Yan!”
The male assassin’s voice was flat and cold.
As an Innate Peak assassin, making a mistake against a lesser Early Innate individual was a disgrace in his assassination history.
“Hmph.”
Chen Yu let out a cold grunt.
It had been a while since he had felt such a sense of crisis. He could not let these two assassins go easily, and he had to find out who was behind this.
Roar!
Taking out his Giant Ruler Sword, Chen Yu swung fiercely, chopping out a huge sweep of Dark Red Evil Sword.
Swoosh!
The male assassin, with his exquisite movement technique, leaped to avoid the cut.
“Not so simple.”
The male assassin acknowledged the power of Chen Yu’s sword silently, not too surprised.
Swoosh!
He shot toward Chen Yu like a spring, his black short blade stabbing out.
From behind, the female assassin attacked again.
Instead of swinging his sword, Chen Yu reached into his storage bag and pulled out a black medicinal bottle.
Whoosh~
The bottle opened, releasing a red and blue mist that spread everywhere.
This was exactly the poison powder Scarred Man had used against Chen Yu earlier.
“No good! Junior Sister, back off!”
The male assassin immediately shouted.
Both halted and retreated, yet they still got dusted with a lot of poison powder.
Both took out a medicinal bottle and swallowed a Detoxification Pill.
“Ah… what kind of poison is this, so strong!”
The female, even after swallowing the Detoxification Pill, groaned lowly.
At that moment, her body was burning hot as if scorched by fierce fire, yet her spirit felt as though it was in an ice cellar.
“Sword Shocking Four Directions!”
After dispersing the poison powder, Chen Yu swung the Giant Ruler Sword, executing the “Shocking Evil Sword Technique”.
Layers of Sword Qi swept out, whistling in all directions.
Swoosh! Swoosh!
The two assassins were forced to retreat, hit by the residual waves of the Evil Sword.
The female assassin, being weaker, staggered from the hit and further poisoned, her combat ability further diminished.
In contrast, the male assassin, who retreated earlier and was less contaminated by the poison powder, wasn’t much injured.
“Junior Sister, let’s go.”
The male assassin hastily called out.
However, in the next moment, he transformed into a black swift shadow, rushing towards Chen Yu.
His black short blade, carrying a lethal cold gleam, stabbed towards Chen Yu’s throat.
“Die!”
Chen Yu’s expression turned grim.
Boom!
Suddenly, his body emanated an aura resembling that of an Ancient Beast True Dragon, his skin forming a layer of transparent blood scale patterns, resembling a sinister bronze Buddha.
In this poison mist forest, Chen Yu wasn’t afraid of anything and intended to capture these two assassins, so he didn’t hesitate to use his trump card.
“This is… bloodline!”
The male assassin showed surprise.
The intel had not mentioned this.
Boom!
Chen Yu swung his black sword fiercely, unleashing a layer of dark red evil Sword Qi, howling out, stirring in all directions.
