Inexplicably, Yin Jue felt his entire body itch!
Moreover, this itch didn't seem to be on the surface of his skin, but in his flesh!
He subconsciously scratched his skin, but it didn't have any effect.
"Strange."
He muttered and tried to circulate his qi and blood from his middle dantian to relieve the itch in his body.
Breaking Profound Realm cultivators could open the middle dantian called the "Profound Gate" and condense life energy — qi and blood.
The middle dantian was in the chest and connected to eight extraordinary meridians. It could channel the qi and blood refined into the middle dantian into the flesh and organs through the eight extraordinary meridians to refine the body.
Only when a cultivator reached the Breaking Profound Realm and had abundant life energy could the limit of their lifespan be changed again.
Below the Breaking Profound Realm, no matter if they were mortals or cultivators, they could at most live for a hundred or so years.
Once a cultivator reached the Breaking Profound Realm, their lifespan would greatly increase, and they could easily live for dozens or even hundreds of years.
As their realm increased and their life energy improved, they could continue to increase their lifespan. A thousand years or even ten thousand years was possible.
"Ah!"
Yin Jue, who was trying to use the qi and blood from his middle dantian to soothe the itch in his body, suddenly let out a low howl.
The howl suddenly stopped!
Yin Jue, who had covered his mouth, was terrified to find that the moment he opened his middle dantian, there was a small foreign object that rushed into his middle dantian along the eight extraordinary meridians!
The sea of qi and blood that was condensed in his middle dantian suddenly became turbulent!
His qi and blood suddenly went out of control!
An indescribable pain rose from his middle dantian and quickly spread throughout his body!
The speed of his blood flow suddenly increased by several times. His qi and blood were like wild horses that had escaped their reins, causing him to be in so much pain that he wanted to die.
Yin Jue could no longer maintain the continuous casting of the "Green Glow Flame."
His entire body was covered in cold sweat as he curled his body and slowly squatted down while trembling.
"Aooo!"
From the gaps between his fingers that were covering his mouth came a painful cry that sounded like a beast facing death. It was mournful and filled with fear.
Before his consciousness became blurry from the pain, he suddenly saw the tightly shut door of the pavilion being gently opened.
Under the moonlight, a familiar yet unfamiliar figure strolled toward him.
That person had an indifferent smile on his face, and the light released from his eyes was as bright as the cold moon hanging high in the night sky!
"Yu Yuan!"
Looking at that figure, Yin Jue still found it hard to believe despite the intense pain.
The person who had just arrived was none other than the foolish young master whom he had been trying to murder ever since he had entered the Yu Family. Moreover, he had even thought that he had succeeded!
However, at this moment, the foolish brat that should have died in his heart was not only alive, but the gaze he was looking at him with made even him, a vicious and merciless person, feel uneasy.
"Why would I be afraid of this fool?!"
Yin Jue panted violently. The pain on his face was suddenly replaced by a ferocious expression. "It must be because I lost control of my qi and blood, and am suffering some strange pain that caused me to have such strange emotions!" He comforted himself inwardly.
"The toxin of the Turtle Blood Pill is even more effective on those who have opened their profound doors."
After Yu Yuan spoke, he took a deep look at An Ziqing who was frozen by the cold Qi. From his experience, the cold Qi didn't seep into An Ziqing's organs. This meant that Yin definitely didn't want to kill her immediately, but had other intentions.
After thinking about it for a while, he came to a decision.
"The Turtle Blood Pill corrodes and destroys the power of qi and blood. The middle dantian, which condenses and stores qi and blood, is infiltrated by the Turtle Blood Pill's toxin. The toxin can spread to the five viscera and six bowels in a short time through the eight extraordinary meridians. Tsk tsk, that stabbing pain will only become more and more intense! "
Upon hearing these words, Yin Jue's eyes bulged. He stared at Qin Lie as if he had seen a ghost in broad daylight.
He shook his shoulders and circulated his spirit energy, intending to kill Yu Yuan on the spot.
Suddenly, an even more intense tearing pain erupted from his internal organs!
Yin Jue instantly collapsed to the ground, trembling. He discovered that both the qi and blood in his middle dantian and the spirit energy in his lower dantian were crazily surging and tearing at his flesh and organs.
He was scared out of his wits. He hurriedly tried to scream with his remaining strength to wake the other members of the Yu Family.
In the next moment, he felt Yu Yuan suddenly appear behind him and squat down quietly.
A pair of fair and slender hands appeared just in time under his nostrils and firmly covered his open mouth.
"Ugh! Ugh! "
Because his cries for help were tightly covered by the two hands, it was as if he had turned into a mute, unable to truly transmit his voice.
His mouth was tightly covered, but he could still breathe through his nostrils.
"It's late. Don't make so much noise."
Yu Yuan, whose back was facing him, covered his mouth even harder and said with a gentle tone, "I'm guessing that the Turtle Blood Pill's toxin has already spread to your internal organs. Right now, your internal organs are probably being gnawed by tiny poisonous insects. It must be very painful, right? Yes, yes, yes, I know. I know that you're already starting to want to die.
"There's no rush. Wait a little longer. Feel it properly."
"Look, I didn't cover your nose and let you suffocate to death because I wanted to give you more time to feel it properly, didn't I?"
Yu Yuan slowly whispered into Yin Jue's ear.
However, in Yin Jue's ears, every word of his was like the devil's sharp finger blades that pierced into his heart and soul.
The pain that he felt surging from his entire body seemed to be intensified by Yu Yuan's words.
The piercing pain of his internal organs being torn apart, his blood vessels and meridians being twisted became more and more intense.
Blood uncontrollably flowed out of Yin Jue's eyes, nostrils, ears, and mouth, causing him to appear incomparably terrifying at this moment.
Then, the bulging veins on his neck suddenly burst open.
Scarlet blood instantly covered his face and neck. His swollen chest gradually shriveled, as if his internal organs were being gnawed by a foreign object and were gradually shrinking.
At this moment, Yin Jue didn't have the ability to commit suicide. He subconsciously breathed through his nostrils and endured the extreme pain.
A very, very long time later.
Yu Yuan moved his blood-covered hands away from Yin Jue's mouth, and then very familiarly searched for wood. Using a "flame crystal," he ignited Yin Jue, who had been poisoned by the Turtle Blood Pill, on the spot.
Not far away, the frozen An Ziqing didn't know what had happened from beginning to end.
… …
"Yin Jue is dead!"
"Just last night, Yin Jue was poisoned to death outside Yu Yuan's pavilion."
"According to Yu Yuan and the Yu Family's explanation, Yin Jue had a conflict with a poison master and was killed by the other party's poison."
"They said that after Yin Jue was poisoned, the poison ignited inside his body and burned him to ashes."
"The young master of the Yu Family and the servant girls all saw it with their own eyes. They also said that the poison master had taken a fancy to Yu Yuan's talent and specially came in secret to take him in as a disciple. "
Lin Zhuyun's servant girl, Han You, finally calmed down after being berated repeatedly by her. She accurately repeated the information given by the Yu Family.
After saying this, Han You felt ill at ease and observed her young miss very carefully.
After the initial shock, Lin Zhuyun quickly calmed down and then frowned deeply in silence.
Yin Jue had appeared at Yu Yuan's residence in the middle of the night. No matter what, there had to be something wrong with him.
Of course she knew that Yin Jue must have been ordered by the elders of the Cold Yin Sect to visit Yu Yuan in the middle of the night with ill intentions.
As Yin Jue's master, she couldn't escape responsibility for Yin Jue's actions.
But now, Yin Jue was dead.
He died of poison, and the person who poisoned Yin Jue to death was a poison master of unknown origin?
Did that poison master really take a fancy to Yu Yuan's talent and specially come in the middle of the night to discuss taking him in as a disciple?
Was it really so coincidental?
What was the inside story behind all this?
Lin Zhuyun's thoughts were in a mess, but she couldn't find an answer. Because Yin Jue had gone to Yu Yuan's residence in the middle of the night, it was strange enough. She didn't even have the courage to go to the Yu Family to denounce them.
"He suddenly came back from the dead and was chosen by a poison master. Strange, very strange." Suddenly, a thought popped into her mind. "You couldn't have killed him, right? Impossible! You can't possibly have the ability to kill Yin Jue! "
… …
It was another long period of meditation.
Yu Yuan exhaled a mouthful of turbid air. The ninth meridian in his body was suddenly filled with the spiritual Qi of Heaven and Earth.
"Success! The ninth level of the Meridian Opening Realm! "Feeling the surge of spiritual Qi, he grinned." The Meridian Opening Pill is indeed useful! "
After what happened that night, he was even more eager to improve his cultivation base.
Three days had already passed. After the news of Yin Jue's death was passed to his fiancée, she didn't make a big fuss, just as he had expected.
However, he knew that this was just the temporary calm before the storm.
"Eh?!"
Suddenly, a beautiful bright red lotus floated over like a ball of fire.
There were no signs before it happened.
When he stared at the red lotus, he suddenly felt dizzy and his consciousness blurred. He complained inwardly, "Oh no."
The red lotus flower suddenly swelled up and swallowed him like a scarlet mouth.
A few seconds later, the red lotus shrunk again and withdrew all of its light, mysteriously hiding its tracks.
