Demons and monsters wreak havoc: gain one new confidante every day.

After many hardships, Shen You finally found Xiao Hui.

The bad news is that she is suffering the torture of being devoured by thousands of snakes and could die at any moment. Furthermore, the essence of nectar collected by the Jade Scale Gentleman from all the dead girls is being continuously poured into her body, causing bizarre changes.

The only good news is that she's still alive!

As long as you're alive, there's hope!

Shen You carefully retreated, trying to circle around to the south again. But at that moment, she saw Bi Lin Lang Jun turn his head, his snake-like eyes looking at her. Shen You's body stiffened instantly.

Without a doubt, the Jade Scale Gentleman is stronger than Ten Thousand Poisons.

Even though Bi Lin Lang Jun wasn't displaying any imposing aura at the moment, and was just standing somewhat dazed by the Blackwater Pool, the unfathomable feeling emanating from him still sent shivers down Shen You's spine.

Only after Shen You himself advanced to the third rank did he truly appreciate the power of the Jade Scale Gentleman.

Although Bi Lin Lang Jun still didn't give him the same sense of awe and reverence as Huang Yaoshi, he was very close to that level.

"His strength is at the peak of the third rank!"

Shen You made a judgment, and a chill ran through her heart.

"He's only one step away from reaching the fourth rank!"

Having just dealt with the myriad poisons, he encountered such a powerful figure.

The frustration and exhaustion that welled up in her heart seemed to be crushing Shen You.

But Shen You knew that he could not show weakness at this moment. Even when facing such a powerful Bi Lin Lang Jun, he had to move forward.

It wasn't just for Xiaohui.

Rather, as martial artists, they should never retreat.

The reason I have been able to overcome various obstacles and reach my current strength is because I have never been afraid and have always forged ahead.

If this momentum of progress is broken, even without Bi Lin Lang Jun killing him, his cultivation will inevitably stagnate, making further progress difficult, and he will eventually fade into obscurity.

"Only... can we move forward!"

Shen You took a deep breath, pursed her lips, and strode toward Bi Lin Lang Jun.

This was the first time that Shen You had faced Bi Lin Lang Jun all by herself.

Looking at the figure in green robes, Shen You felt as if she were facing a snake.

Seemingly because the medicine was almost ready, Bi Lin Lang Jun appeared somewhat dazed. Although his gaze was fixed on Shen You, it seemed to penetrate Shen You and look at something else entirely.

His handsome face wore a mysterious expression, and his lips moved slightly as if he were muttering to himself. He had lost his hostility, his malice, and his former composure; now he resembled a dead soul solely focused on the secret medicine.

No wonder Han Shu betrayed him.

At this moment, Bi Lin Lang Jun (碧鳞郎君) gives one little hope.

But for Shen You, this was just right.

Shen You suddenly gripped the broadsword in his hand and slowly assumed a fighting stance:

"My lord, I'll only say this once... release the girl on the wall, she's my little sister..."

While warning Bi Lin Lang Jun, Shen You was already gathering all his strength.

This is the best opportunity. His opponent is not in good condition, so he can take this chance to build up his strength and unleash his full power.

"Almost there...almost there..."

Even now, Bi Lin Lang Jun was still talking to himself. He seemed not to have heard Shen You's warning at all, nor did he notice that Shen You was there.

very good……

Shen You thought to himself that Bi Lin Lang Jun's contempt only made him more unscrupulous in his attacks.

Five kinds of forces shone on Shen You's body: the Golden Snake Force, the Gecko Force, the Scorpion Force, the Golden Toad Force, and the Golden Centipede Force.

Just as Shen You was about to circulate his "sword technique" again, a thought suddenly struck him.

"If I were to advance further here and condense the 'Five Poisons Great Power'..."

After all, "great strength" is the kind of skill a third-rank official should possess.

By cultivating the Five Poisons Technique, one should be condensing the "Five Poisons Great Strength," which Huang Yaoshi calls the "Five Immortals Great Strength." In any case, only by condensing the "Great Strength" can one truly possess the strongest killing move at this stage.

Only that kind of move could kill Lord Bilin!

Without much hesitation, Shen You seized this golden opportunity and closed her eyes right in front of Bi Lin Lang Jun.

Shen You visualized a demonic monster formed from the combination of five poisonous substances in his mind.

This is no simple matter. If it were the previous Shen You, he would never have been able to successfully visualize it in such a short time.

Shen You's original plan was to ask Xiao Hui to buy five more poisons and observe them day and night to create new poisons, which is why Xiao Hui came here.

But at this moment, Shen You deliberately chose to break through the eye aperture when he had just broken through.

His eye abilities have been greatly enhanced, allowing him to observe things with remarkable precision and imprint them firmly in his eyes, as if a photograph had been taken. In a sense, this is already a kind of supernatural eye power.

When he closes his eyes and concentrates, he can recall the appearance of the Five Poisons from his memory.

The images of the five poisonous creatures—the snake's gentleness, the gecko's forbearance, the scorpion's venom, the toad's sliminess, and the centipede's ruthlessness—emerged vividly in my mind.

In his mind, Shen You was like a graphic design software, arbitrarily deleting and piecing together the image of the Five Poisons.

He wanted to retain the most ferocious parts of the Five Poisons and connect them together using a reasonable body structure. The final creature had to be a powerful and rationally constructed organism, while also clearly possessing the characteristics of the Five Poisons.

This was no easy feat, but fortunately, he was a time traveler who had seen all sorts of bizarre and fantastical online images in his previous life. He drew inspiration from the materials from his past life and felt that he was getting closer and closer to success.

It didn't take long for Shen You to find the most reasonable image of the Five Poisons Demon. It was a monster with a snake's head, gecko's feet, scorpion's tail, toad's belly, and centipede's back limbs, and its whole body was pieced together from the five poisons. Coincidentally, the positions of the five poisons corresponded one by one to the body parts that Shen You had trained when he was practicing his cultivation technique.

When this image appeared in his mind, Shen You was certain that he had finally found the Five Poisons Visualization Diagram. As long as he could transform the images of the five poisonous demons into a fused phantom of energy, he would have mastered the "Five Poisons Great Strength".

Shen You opened his eyes. At that moment, the five phantoms on his body began to slowly merge towards the center. Most of the bodies of the five poisonous creatures dissolved together, leaving only the five most prominent parts, which became the new parts of the five poisonous demons.

A powerful aura surged forth at that moment. The Azure Scale Gentleman ahead trembled, his pupils focusing; he finally saw Shen You and spoke with some surprise:

"...Strong?"

Even at the third rank, "Great Strength" is not something that is common. Only those with extraordinary talent and profound lineage can find a series of similar or related strength techniques and integrate them into "Great Strength".

The ordinary-looking apprentice in blue robes before him seemed to be one of the blue-robed men who had once besieged him, but now he had suddenly become a third-rank cultivator and was gathering great power right in front of him.

This made Bi Lin Lang Jun raise his eyebrows, showing some interest in Shen You for the first time.

"Boy...who are you?"

He reached out, and the illusory green python rushed forward, biting hard at the illusory Five Poison Demon on Shen You's body.

In an instant, the five poisonous demons disintegrated, transforming back into five illusory poisonous creatures, which then flickered and disappeared.

Shen You was startled and stared in astonishment at Bi Lin Lang Jun, who had finally noticed her.

My heart sank to the bottom at that moment.
