Post-Mythical Era: I don't want to die in the third reincarnation-Chapter 502 - 495: Ding Huan’s Poison Dao
Ding Huan's surroundings were enveloped in swirling Daoist Rhythms, and then one by one, the Bone-Eating Poison Dao Principles were being refined within the Void.
The Bone Devouring Poison Dao Principle was one of the most powerful Poison Dao Laws in Ding Huan's Tao Universe, originating from the Devouring Dao Silver.
Compared to the Bone Devouring Principle of the Devouring Dao Silver, the Ten Thousand Poisons Law paled significantly.
If previously Ding Huan was uncertain, now, after deploying the Bone Devouring Poison Dao Principle again, he confirmed that this Devouring Dao Silver was unlikely to be an object from the Immortal Realm.
Given the opportunity in the future, he would definitely make another trip to the Billions of Void Swamps to take away that pool of Devouring Dao Silver.
Although Ding Huan could deploy the Bone-Eating Dao Principle, Devouring Dao Silver was no ordinary matter.
Endless waves of the Bone Devouring Poison and Ten Thousand Poisons Laws were unleashed by Ding Huan, and the attacking demon cultivators started to fall in masses.
Ding Huan closed his eyes as he eliminated the harm to the Human Clan Cultivators beneath the infinite space of the Bone Devouring Poison Dao Principle.
In just 15 minutes, everyone on the battlefield was stunned.
Rows upon rows of Immortal Demon Beasts collapsed, while the space before the Human Clan Cultivators gradually cleared.
Such an event had occurred before, when the Demon Clan had first acquired the lethal Daoist Rhythm of the God Clan's Sea Fish Cart. At that time, millions of Human Clan Cultivators had fallen.
Under that deadly toxin, which was fatal to anyone attuned to the Daoist Rhythms, no one except the Immortal Emperor could escape.
Even the Immortal Emperor, unless abstaining from battling, would be affected once participating.
Now this situation had occurred again, the only difference being that the victims had shifted sides.
"It's poison, that person from a few years ago is back..." A sharp, mournful scream exploded over the Immortal Demon Battlefield.
Years ago, at the edge of the forsaken lands of the immortals, a Human Clan Cultivator had poisoned, killing hundreds of millions of Demon Clan Cultivators.
Yet even the Heavenly Emperor of the Demon Clan couldn't identify the perpetrator despite personally investigating.
Strong presences were quickly closing in from afar.
Ding Huan hurriedly deployed defensive Array Patterns. If the Demon Emperor arrived, he would not be able to fight him; he absolutely had to retreat before the Demon Emperor arrived.
He wasn't entirely sure how much damage the Bone Devouring Poison would inflict on the Heavenly Emperor of the Demon Clan.
The first time he was poisoned by it, had it not been for the Great Universe Technique, he would have been long gone.
"It's Ding Xiandu, the Immortal Governor's Poison Dao is stronger than the Demon Clan's…" Ji Cang, the Lord of the Ten Thousand Arrays, was the first to realize.
Emperor Jin He also came to realize, and immediately shouted, "All Immortal Emperors, gather near the Great Immortal Governor immediately. The Demon Emperor will arrive soon."
The remaining nine Immortal Emperors awoke to the situation and quickly converged around Ding Huan.
They absolutely couldn't allow Ding Huan to suffer even the slightest injury; this was the sole opportunity for the Immortal Court.
Ding Huan was releasing the Poison Dao Principles, and if anything happened to him, none of them would escape.
The voice of Ding Huan timely reached the ears of Emperor Jin He, "Emperor Jin He, immediately bring all poisoned Immortal Emperors to me."
Without hesitation, Emperor Jin He complied and had people bring Xing Pan and others to the battlefield.
"Just a mere ant, seeking death…" A red-haired, sharp-nosed man charged forward. Seeing Ding Huan deploying the Poison Dao Principles to kill the Demon Clan, he was instantly enraged.
"Peng Jiuxian, you dare to act..." Emperor Jin He, Qin Kuang, seeing Peng Jiuxian charging towards Ding Huan, where he could delay no more, gathered a sky-full of Immortal Essence, wielding the Measuring Sky Ruler to strike at Peng Jiuxian.
Peng Jiuxian's lips curled into a cruel, cold smirk. Had he not been collecting more residual souls of the Human Tribe, he would have wiped out these few minor Immortal Emperors already.
Affected by the Daoist Rhythms of the Sea Fish Cart's poison, standing was already an achievement, yet he dared to challenge him.
As Emperor Jin He wielded the Measuring Sky Ruler, he felt an extreme sense of weakness overcome him.
He sighed internally, knowing he was severely poisoned. Although he hadn't fallen, he wouldn't last much longer.
This Peng Jiuxian was the eldest son of the Demon Emperor of Peng Xueshan, with the mid-stage strength of an eighth-level Immortal Demon. Even at his peak, it would have taken him considerable effort to handle him.
Not to mention his strength was now but a fraction of what it once was.
Peng Jiuxian's Bloodthirsty Saber was raised, but his domain was only extended halfway when a sense of powerlessness surged through him.
Then, his Sea of Consciousness, meridians, and even his soul were entwined by a terrifying Poison Dao Principle, his Demon Essence and Divine Will, including his vitality, all dissipating wildly.
What kind of poison is this?
Fear flashed in Peng Jiuxian's eyes as he desperately wanted to retreat.
Like his father, he was also a master of using poison.
Yet, he had never seen nor heard of such a poison before.
At this moment, his movements couldn't keep up with his thoughts.
"Bang!"
The Measuring Sky Ruler of Qin Kuang slammed against Peng Jiuxian's Bloodthirsty Saber, the Immortal Essence exploding and sending the saber flying.
As Peng Jiuxian spewed out a dark red Blood Arrow, Emperor Jin He's Measuring Sky Ruler relentlessly struck Peng Jiuxian's head.
A mist of blood blossomed, and Peng Jiuxian let out a ghastly scream as he fell from the void.
Ding Huan stepped on the shattered head of Peng Jiuxian, his hand sweeping up to capture Peng Jiuxian's Divine Soul.
Emperor Jin He, Qin Kuang, could hardly believe the Measuring Sky Ruler in his hands—since when had he been so powerful?
He quickly realized it wasn't that he had grown stronger, but rather Peng Jiuxian had been immobilized by Ding Huan's Poison Dao Principle, losing the ability to resist.
In the distance, several level eight Immortal Demons who were following Peng Jiuxian halted in fear.
Who didn't know how formidable Peng Jiuxian was?
Even among the mid-stage level eight Immortal Demons, he could easily handle those at the peak level.
But now, facing Emperor Jin He, Qin Kuang, not even one move was sustained before he was outright killed. had Emperor Jin He already achieved the status of Quasi-Saint?
"How powerful..." Several Immortal Emperors by the side of Emperor Jin He couldn't help but exclaim.
It was unclear whether they were referring to the mightiness of Ding Huan's Poison Dao or that of Emperor Jin He.
"Great Immortal Governor, the poison in my body..." Han Hucheng of the Taoist Immortal Bureau gasped in alarm.
Not just Han Hucheng, but Qin Kuang, Ji Cang, Luo Tang of the Immortal Court Bing Shen Department, and others were all excitedly looking towards Ding Huan.
The Daoist Rhythm of the Sea Fish Cart poison in their bodies, which they couldn't remove, was suddenly swept away.
Without Ding Huan needing to say it, they knew that it was Ding Huan controlling the Poison Dao Rhythm of this space.
As long as there was a poisonous Daoist Rhythm, unless they disallowed it themselves, it would be swept away by Ding Huan.
Who would refuse such a fearsome Poison Dao Rhythm being swept from their bodies? They would eagerly assist it with their energies.
"The Heavenly Emperor has sent..." An urgent voice arose, it was Mu Jiuting from the Thunder Law Department.
Everyone understood that if the Immortal Court lost this great war, it meant that the Human Tribe would never have a chance to rise, and the Immortal Court would forever be trampled underfoot by the Alien Clan.
Thus, even though the Immortal Demon Battlefield had turned into a meat grinder, these officials from the Immortal Court were still very few in number who left.
Emperor Xingpan, Lord Changqi Ji Zhanbo, Emperor Ping Wei Luo Yu, Southern Dao Lord Ju Feihe, and the commander of the Ding Mao Department, Zong Hanghu, were all lined up in a row behind Ding Huan.
Ding Huan was releasing the Poison Dao Rhythm and had no capabilities to detoxify from a distance at the moment.
At this moment, Ding Huan was surrounded by endlessly circulating Dao Rhythm, sending out the terrifying Bone Devouring Dao Rhythm Rule.
Furthermore, Ding Huan was also deploying the Ten Thousand Poisons Law.
Any poisonous Dao Rhythm near him would be swept away by Ding Huan and then re-integrated into the Bone Devouring Poison Dao Rule.
"The Demon Emperor Peng Xueshan has arrived." Ji Cang spoke nervously beside Ding Huan.
Hesitating for a moment, he added, "Peng Jiuxian is the eldest son of the Heavenly Emperor of the Demon Clan, if possible..."
Before Ji Cang could finish speaking, Emperor Jin He raised a hand to stop him.
What kind of person was Ding Huan?
Back when he was an Immortal Monarch, he dared to confront the Immortal Prime Minister Bu Yue head-on.
Now that Ding Huan intended to kill Peng Jiuxian, how could he consider the face of the Demon Emperor Peng Xueshan?
Besides, Peng Jiuxian had long been killed by Ding Huan.
Boom! It was as if a huge hole was violently blown open in the void, and a man taller than ten feet landed in front of Ding Huan and the others.
"Was it you who killed my son Jiuxian?" Peng Xueshan's gaze fell on Ding Huan, filled with intense killing intent.
Emperor Jin He, Qin Kuang, contemptuously said, "It was I, Qin, who killed him. Come at me if you dare."
The Dao Rhythm of the deadly Sea Fish Cart poison within Emperor Jin He had been thoroughly cleansed, immediately boosting his confidence.
Every Late Stage Immortal Emperor had their pride.
Not only was Emperor Jin He a Late Stage Immortal Emperor, but he was also a veteran emperor who had been stifled for a long time. Now that the Poison Dao Rhythm had been removed from his body, he had long wanted to battle the Heavenly Emperor of the Demon Clan.
Just as Peng Xueshan was about to speak, he suddenly felt a tremor in his Divine Soul as though something was trying to infiltrate his Great Dao.
Peng Xueshan was greatly alarmed; his Domain had long since matured, and yet the opponent's poison could infiltrate his Domain, showing immense strength.
Peng Xueshan vigorously circulated his Immortal Essence, finally blocking this terrifying poison outside his Great Dao.
"Feng Hu, what poison is this?" Peng Xueshan's expression became grave.
He too was a Poison Dao expert, yet he did not recognize what this poison was.
A skinny man who had come with Peng Jiuxian approached Peng Xueshan and whispered:
"Not very sure, but we all got it. This poison permeates the bone marrow, follows the Great Dao into the Purple Mansion, and is basically unstoppable…"
"Heavenly Emperor, it somewhat resembles the legendary Bone Devouring Pathogen." A tiger-headed level eight Immortal Demon approached Peng Xueshan, his eyes filled with terror as he spoke.
Peng Xueshan's expression changed, his Divine Will scanned farther away, seeing thousands of Demon Clan Cultivators collapsing crazily.
No matter how they ran, no matter where they fled, they couldn't escape a deadly fate.
For them, the Bone Devouring Pathogen was utterly insolvable, but not everyone possessed a Great Tao Universe.
"Emperor Jin He, if you want to fight me, Peng, I'll accompany you to the end. But first, I want to know who he is and why he killed my son Jiucan."
Peng Xueshan spoke still dominantly, yet even the typically oblivious Emperor Jin He could detect a lack of real confidence this time.
Ding Huan still paid no mind to Peng Xueshan; there was no need to waste time on a dead person.
Moreover, his expenditure was also enormous.
If not for his Sea of Consciousness being a Great Dao Universe, he simply couldn't have held on.
Releasing poison was simple, but creating a Poison Dao was difficult.
Not to mention, spreading poison to obliterate the entire Demon Clan army?
