500. Chapter 495: Ding Huan's Poison Dao
Around Ding Huan, the Dao's resonance flowed, and immediately, countless Fu Gu Poison Dao principles were condensed from the void.
Fu Gu Shi Dao was the most powerful Poison Dao principle in Ding Huan's Great Dao Universe, originating from Shi Dao Silver.
Compared to the Fu Gu Shi Dao principle of Shi Dao Silver, the Ten Thousand Poisons principle was utterly weak.
If Ding Huan had previously been uncertain, after once again deploying the Fu Gu Shi Dao Poison Dao principle, he was now certain that Shi Dao Silver was unlikely an object from the Immortal World.
Should he get the chance in the future, he would definitely return to the Myriad Void Swamps and take away that pool of Shi Dao Silver.
He could deploy the Fu Gu Shi Dao principle, but Shi Dao Silver was by no means ordinary.
Endless Fu Gu Shi Dao and Ten Thousand Poisons principles were swept out by Ding Huan, and the demonic cultivators charging toward him began collapsing en masse.
Ding Huan closed his eyes and, beneath the boundless space of Fu Gu Shi Dao Poison Dao principles, eliminated the harmful Dao resonance targeting human cultivators.
In just half a stick of incense, everyone on the battlefield was stunned.
Vast swathes of immortal-demonic beasts fell, while the human cultivators before them gradually cleared.
This had happened before—when the demonic race first acquired the Divine Clan's Hai Xing Che Dao Poison, hundreds of thousands of human cultivators had fallen in the same manner.
Under that poison, lethal to all Dao resonance, none could escape except the Immortal Emperor.
Even the Immortal Emperor, unless he refused to join the battle, would still be affected once he participated.
Now this situation had occurred again, the only difference being that those falling were on the opposite side.
"It's poison—the guy from years ago has returned again…" A shrill, desperate scream erupted across the immortal-demonic battlefield.
Years ago, at the edge of the Immortal Abandonment Lands, a human cultivator had poisoned the demonic race, killing over a hundred million demonic cultivators.
Yet even when the demonic Heavenly Emperor personally investigated, he could not find who that man was.
Powerful auras from afar were rapidly approaching.
Ding Huan quickly erected layers of defensive array patterns—if the demonic emperor arrived, he couldn't fight him; he must retreat before the demonic emperor arrived.
He wasn't certain how much damage the Fu Gu Shi Dao poison would inflict on the demonic Heavenly Emperor.
When he himself had been poisoned by it, had it not been for the Great Universe Technique, his corpse would have long since turned cold.
"It's Ding Xiandu—Great Xiandu's Poison Dao surpasses the demonic race…" Wan Zhen Xingjun Ji Cang was the first to realize.
Emperor Jinhe also realized, and immediately shouted: "All Immortal Emperors, immediately draw near Great Xiandu—the demonic emperors are coming!"
The remaining nine Immortal Emperors immediately understood and swiftly gathered around Ding Huan.
Ding Huan must not suffer even the slightest harm—this was the Immortal Court's only chance.
Ding Huan is releasing Poison Dao principles; if Ding Huan is harmed, none of them will escape.
Ding Huan's voice reached Emperor Jinhe's ears in time: "Emperor Jinhe, immediately bring all poisoned Immortal Emperors to me."
Emperor Jinhe did not hesitate a moment—he immediately ordered Brother Xingpan and others brought onto the battlefield.
"A mere ant, seeking death…" A red-haired, pointed-nosed man rushed forward, saw Ding Huan deploying Poison Dao principles to kill demonic cultivators, and flew into a rage.
"Peng Jiucan, how dare you attack…" Qin Kuang, Emperor Jinhe, saw Peng Jiucan charging toward Ding Huan and dared not delay—he swept up a storm of immortal energy and swung the Liang Tian Chi straight at Peng Jiucan.
Peng Jiucan's lips curled in a cruel sneer—if he weren't collecting more human soul fragments, he would have already slaughtered these few petty Immortal Emperors.
Those poisoned by the Hai Xing Che Dao Poison could barely stand—how dare they challenge him?
The moment Emperor Jinhe summoned the Liang Tian Chi, he felt an overwhelming weakness surge through him.
He sighed inwardly—he was heavily poisoned; though still standing, he couldn't last much longer.
This Peng Jiucan was the eldest son of the demonic emperor Peng Xueshan, already at mid-stage Eighth-Level Immortal-Demonic power—even in his prime, subduing this man would have taken considerable effort.
Let alone now, when his strength was less than one-tenth of what it once was.
As Peng Jiucan unleashed his Bloodthirsty Blade, his domain had barely extended halfway when a wave of helplessness flooded his heart.
Immediately, his consciousness, meridians, even his soul were entangled by a terrifying Poison Dao principle—his demonic energy, divine perception, and vitality all drained wildly.
What poison is this?
Fear flashed in Peng Jiucan's eyes—he tried desperately to retreat.
He, like his father, was a master of poison.
But he had never seen or heard of such a poison.
At this moment, his body could not keep up with his thoughts.
"Boom!"
Qin Kuang's Liang Tian Chi slammed into Peng Jiucan's Bloodthirsty Blade—immortal energy exploded, and Peng Jiucan's Bloodthirsty Blade flew away.
As Peng Jiucan spat a dark red blood arrow, Emperor Jinhe's Liang Tian Chi struck his skull without the slightest pause.
Blood mist exploded—Peng Jiucan let out a piercing scream and tumbled from the void.
Ding Huan stepped on Peng Jiucan's shattered skull, swept his hand, and seized Peng Jiucan's soul.
Emperor Jinhe Qin Kuang stared in disbelief at the Liang Tian Chi in his hand—when had he become this powerful?
He quickly realized—it wasn't that he had grown stronger, but that Peng Jiucan had been locked down by Ding Huan's Poison Dao principles and lost all capacity to resist.
Several Eighth-Level Immortal-Demonic beings who had followed Peng Jiucan froze in fear.
Who didn't know Peng Jiucan's strength?
Even an Eighth-Level Immortal-Demonic at mid-stage could effortlessly crush a peak-level opponent.
Yet now, facing Emperor Jinhe Qin Kuang, he hadn't even lasted a single strike—he was killed outright. Had Emperor Jinhe already attained the path of a pseudo-sage?
"Incredible…" The few Immortal Emperors beside Emperor Jinhe couldn't help but exclaim.
They weren't sure whether they meant Ding Huan's Poison Dao was incredible, or Emperor Jinhe was incredible.
"Great Xiandu, my poison…" Ting Zhu Han Hucheng cried out in shock.
Not just Han Hucheng—Qin Kuang, Ji Cang, Commander Luo Tang of the Immortal Court's Bing Shen Division—all looked at Ding Huan in astonishment and delight.
The Hai Xing Che Dao Poison resonance, which had been utterly impossible to remove from their bodies, had all been swept away.
⊙ttkΛn⊙co
Without Ding Huan needing to speak, they all knew this was Ding Huan controlling the toxic Dao rhythm of this space.
Any toxic Dao rhythm aura, unless they themselves forbade it, would be swept away by Ding Huan.
Who would refuse when Ding Huan sought to sweep away this terrifying toxic Dao rhythm from their bodies? They'd gladly assist with their cultivation.
"The Heavenly Emperor has sent…" A urgent voice rang out—it was Mu Mu Jiuting, Standard-Bearer of the Thunder Law Department.
All of them understood: if the Immortal Court lost this great battle, it meant the human race would never rise again, and the Immortal Court would be trampled beneath alien races.
So even though the Immortal-Devil battlefield had become a meat grinder, few of these Immortal Court officials had left.
The Heavenly Emperor's Punishment Disk, Star Lord Changqi Ji Zhanbo, Emperor Pingwei Luo Yu, Southern Dao Lord Ju Feihé, Commander Zong Xinghu of the Ding Mao Division—all were lined up in a row behind Ding Huan.
Ding Huan was releasing toxic Dao rhythm and had no capacity left to remove poison from afar.
At this moment, Dao rhythms swirled wildly around Ding Huan, and endless Fugu Shidao Dao-rhythm laws were sent forth by him.
In addition, Ding Huan was also distributing the Ten Thousand Poisons Dao law.
All toxic Dao rhythms near Ding Huan were swept away by him and then reabsorbed into the Fugu Shidao toxic Dao law.
"The Demon Emperor Peng Xueshan has arrived," Ji Cang said nervously beside Ding Huan.
After a pause, he added: "Peng Jiucan is the eldest son of the Demon Emperor of the Demon Clan—if possible…"
Before Ji Cang could finish, Emperor Jinhe raised his hand to stop him.
Who is Ding Huan?
Even when he was an Immortal Lord, he dared to directly confront Prime Minister Bu Yue.
Now that Ding Huan wishes to kill Peng Jiucan, how could he care about the face of Demon Emperor Peng Xueshan?
Besides, Peng Jiucan was already killed by Ding Huan.
Boom! As if a massive hole had been violently torn open in the void, a man over ten feet tall landed before Ding Huan and the others.
"Did you kill my son Jiucan?" Peng Xueshan's gaze fixed on Ding Huan, thick with murderous intent.
Emperor Jinhe Qin Kuang sneered: "I killed him. Come if you dare."
The sea-fish toxin Dao rhythm within Emperor Jinhe had long been completely purged; his confidence surged instantly.
Every late-stage Immortal Emperor has his own pride.
Emperor Jinhe wasn't just a late-stage Immortal Emperor—he was an elder Emperor, and after enduring so much humiliation, now that the toxic Dao rhythm was gone, he had long wanted to fight the Demon Emperor.
Just as Peng Xueshan was about to speak, he suddenly felt his spirit tremble—as if something were seeping into his Dao.
Peng Xueshan was horrified: his domain had long been perfected, yet this poison could penetrate his domain—how formidable was this?
Peng Xueshan frantically surged his Immortal Qi and finally blocked the terrifying poison outside his Dao.
"Fenghu, what poison is this?" Peng Xueshan's expression turned grave.
He himself was a toxic Dao expert, yet he did not recognize this poison.
A thin man who had come with Peng Jiucan stepped beside Peng Xueshan and whispered:
"We're not certain, but all of us have been poisoned—this toxin seeps into the marrow, enters the Zi Fu through the Dao, and cannot be stopped…"
"Emperor, I think it resembles the legendary Fugu Shidao," said a Tiger-Head Grade 8 Immortal-Devil who approached Peng Xueshan, his eyes filled with terror.
Peng Xueshan's gaze changed—he sent his spiritual sense farther out, and thousands upon thousands of Demon Clan cultivators collapsed violently.
No matter how they fled, no matter where they ran, death was the only outcome.
For them, Fugu Shidao was utterly incurable—not everyone possessed a Dao Universe.
"Emperor Jinhe, if you wish to fight me, Peng, I will accept. But I wish to ask—who is this one? Why did he kill my son Jiucan?"
Peng Xueshan's tone remained forceful, yet even Jinhe now sensed the lack of conviction beneath it.
Ding Huan still paid no attention to Peng Xueshan—he had no time to waste on a dead man.
Moreover, his own consumption was immense.
If his dantian weren't a Dao Universe, he could never have held out this long.
Releasing poison is easy; spreading the toxic Dao law is hard.
Not to mention wiping out the entire Demon Clan army with it?
