Yi Yun did not doubt Poison Demon's explanation. Before it gained sentience, it did not have any consciousness. Of course, it did not know who the combatants were.
Yi Yun looked at Poison Demon and said, "In that case, you have also absorbed the energy in the skeleton?"
In reality, although the Poison Demon was a manifestation of the Great Poison Art, it had little to do with that supreme existence. After all, the poison had been refined by the Divine Flame, and it had absorbed the essence of the world and the power of the powerhouse's skeleton for hundreds of millions of years. It had long since transformed.
Even the person who used the Art of Great Poison probably did not expect that the poison he used would gain sentience after hundreds of millions of years. It required all sorts of coincidences.
The black tiger nodded. After such a long period of time, the ashes in the jar had already melted. A portion of the energy had infused into Poison Demon's body, giving Poison Demon a sinister aura.
"Then you really do live up to the word 'sinister.'" Yi Yun smiled. With a flip of his hand, he put away the jar. It was definitely not as simple as an urn. Perhaps, it was an artifact used by the expert when he was alive.
"Hey, how do you plan on dealing with me?"
After revealing all its secrets, the black tiger turned listless. It drooped its head and looked listless. Just Ling Xie'er alone was enough to destroy it, much less Yi Yun.
Yi Yun stroked his chin. In the eyes of righteous figures, Poison Demon was an evil entity through and through. However, he thought nothing of it. He said, "If you are willing to be used by me, I can nurture you. However, you have to sign a contract with me."
Yi Yun did not wish to destroy the Poison Demon in front of him. The fact that it had gained sentience was proof of its extraordinariness. Furthermore, the birth of such a divine entity required at least hundreds of millions of years and countless coincidences. It was truly a pity to destroy such a difficult process.
"Sign a contract? What is the content? " Poison Demon was very careful. Although it was afraid of death, it was unwilling to sign a contract that placed its soul in the hands of another party. It was no different from being a puppet.
"It's very simple. You just need not betray me. You will serve me for ten thousand years. After that, you can choose whether you stay or leave."
He was different from Ling Xie'er. Yi Yun trusted Ling Xie'er completely, but he did not trust Poison Demon.
"Ten thousand years?" The Poison Demon's large eyes lit up. To the Poison Demon, who had a long lifespan, ten thousand years was nothing at all. Moreover, it was just that he couldn't betray it. His consciousness and divine soul were still autonomous and couldn't be controlled. The contents of the contract were also very loose.
Poison Demon gritted his teeth and said, "I accept."
"Alright!"
Yi Yun immediately drew up a soul mark and sent it into Poison Demon's soul sea. Poison Demon did not resist and accepted it willingly.
Yi Yun was proficient in alchemy to begin with. Now that he had obtained the Dragon Emperor Technique, he needed to gather the ingredients to refine pills. With Poison Demon around, he might be able to provide unexpected help.
…
At that moment, the Myriad God Ridge disciples were still waiting for news from the Myriad God Patriarch. However, the node high in the sky remained calm. No one had returned.
Many people were also paying attention to the Ascending Dragon Cauldron. Unfortunately, their perception could not penetrate the Ascending Dragon Cauldron, so they had no idea what was happening inside.
"It's been half an hour. I wonder how Uncle-Master Cang Wu is doing inside."
People were puzzled as to why Cang Wu had been inside for so long. Logically speaking, he should have finished off Yi Yun long ago.
An elder from the Song family said, "Cang Wu might have already finished off Yi Yun. Now, he's studying the Ascending Dragon Cauldron. I wonder what the outcome is. Although I don't think Cang Wu will be able to refine the Ascending Dragon Cauldron, at the very least, he will be able to obtain the opportunities inside. That's quite an enviable prospect."
The elder chuckled. Although it was not their Song family's turn to reap the benefits, killing Yi Yun would avenge the Song and Zhang family's wrath.
Just as the elder finished speaking, the Ascending Dragon Cauldron trembled gently. Something was ejected from the Ascending Dragon Cauldron.
When people focused their eyes, they saw that it was a corpse. It was covered in blood and it was a tragic sight.
"It's that little bastard's corpse?"
The Song family elder was delighted. However, when the corpse landed on the ground, he and everyone else went forward to take a look. Their expressions froze completely.
Although the corpse was a bloody mess, they could clearly tell from the body's size, clothes, and the severely warped expression that the corpse was Cang Wu's!
"Cang … Uncle-Master Cang Wu!?"
A personal disciple said in disbelief.
"Impossible … Uncle-Master Cang Wu has been killed? Was it done by that punk? "
People found it unbelievable. Yi Yun's cultivation level was only at the fifth-storey Dao Palace while Cang Wu was a late-stage Supremacy!
Even if Yi Yun had obtained some opportunities in the Ascending Dragon Cauldron and made a breakthrough, it was impossible for him to defeat a late-stage Supremacy!
"He's dead …"
The Myriad God Sect Master scanned Cang Wu's corpse with his perception. Even his heart was gone. He was completely dead.
This made his expression turn ashen. For the situation to develop to this point, it was already extremely terrible. The Myriad God Patriarch was being pursued by the mysterious old man and Cang Wu had entered the cauldron to kill Yi Yun, only to end up being killed by Yi Yun.
"This punk has probably refined the Dragon Emperor Relic and has even consumed, digested, and absorbed it!" The old woman said. She could not imagine how a junior like Yi Yun could easily refine the Dragon Emperor Relic that even the Myriad God Patriarch found difficult to refine. Furthermore, he had consumed it in such a short period of time.
"If Cang Wu isn't his match, doesn't that mean that most of us aren't that punk's match?"
Many Elders came to this realization. As Elders who had lived for tens of thousands of years, they were actually inferior to Yi Yun in strength. This made them feel defeated.
Compared to Yi Yun, not only were they weaker, their lifespans were shorter than his, their futures were worse than his, and they were also older than him. The comparison left them feeling disgruntled.
"Sect Master, what should we do?"
Asked a personal disciple. There was Yi Yun in the Ascending Dragon Cauldron and there was an expert outside. They were faced with internal and external problems. The situation was extremely critical.
The Myriad God Sect Master was also helpless at that moment. He could not think of a solution and just as he was about to speak, his body suddenly jolted. Immediately, his expression changed drastically!
At the same time, the old woman beside the Myriad God Sect Master was trembling violently. She hugged her head with both hands and could barely stand.
"Sect Master, what's wrong with all of you?"
Everyone present panicked and at that moment, the old woman had collapsed to the ground with a tragic cry. Her face was extremely pale and her body convulsed as though she was having an epileptic fit.
