Chapter 45: You Have Been Afflicted with Jade Phosphor Snake Poison

Inside the Soul Hunting Ground.

The Martial Soul Fusion Skill of Qin Jian and Ning Rongrong vanished almost simultaneously with Yu Tianxin's Third Soul Skill.

"Hoo..."

Yu Tianxin panted slightly: "The Martial Soul Fusion Skill is indeed powerful..."

Tap, tap, tap...

Dugu Yan walked forward at this moment: "Your Third Soul Skill is exhausted, and your soul power is mostly spent. Do you still want to continue fighting me now?"

Yu Tianxin glanced at her and said: "I truly cannot drive you out of the Soul Hunting Ground in my current state, but don't think you can beat me either. From now on, I will keep an eye on you to see if you can still find an opportunity to hunt a Soul Beast!"

"Despicable!"

Dugu Yan couldn't help but curse, but a smile soon appeared on the corners of her mouth: "Yu Tianxin... don't think that I did nothing while they were protecting you... Can you... still lift your own arm right now?"

"Wha... what..."

Yu Tianxin was stunned, and immediately discovered that he couldn't lift his hand at all. Cold sweat broke out instantly: "This is... Jade Phosphor Snake Poison? When exactly..."

Dugu Yan curled her lips, not wanting to explain at all.

"When fighting a poison master, you must always be wary of their use of poison..."

Seeing Yu Tianxin's bewildered expression, Qin Jian offered a kind reminder: "From the very beginning of the fight, you have already been continuously poisoned..."

Dugu Yan gave a cold snort and continued: "If it weren't for your Third Soul Skill, you would have been taken down if I had dragged it out for another three minutes!"

"An idiot who only knows how to fight!"

Dugu Yan concluded.

Yu Tianxin looked at her with a gloomy face and said: "It was my negligence, and you had the help of Qin Jian and the others, so I don't lose unjustly..."

"You should hurry out and find an Education Committee Member to detoxify; if you drag it out too long, no one will be able to save you..."

Perhaps seeing that Yu Tianxin's attitude in admitting defeat was decent, Dugu Yan still reminded him.

Yu Tianxin nodded, then looked at Qin Jian and said: "Your Martial Soul Fusion Skill is indeed powerful, but I hope to have a proper fight with you one day, not like this."

Qin Jian shrugged and said: "We'll talk if there's a chance."

Watching Yu Tianxin leave, Dugu Yan suddenly sat down.

"This guy is truly strong. It took so long to release the Jade Phosphor Snake Poison to succeed; actually, I've reached my limit too..." she panted slightly.

Ning Rongrong realized: "So you couldn't hold on anymore either!"

Dugu Yan glanced at her, then looked at Qin Jian and said: "Thank you both for this time. I will remember this favor."

Qin Jian did not answer her words, but stared at her face, looking thoughtful.

"Brother Jian!"

Seeing Qin Jian staring unblinkingly, Ning Rongrong was annoyed: "You are not allowed to keep looking at her!"

Dugu Yan also looked at Qin Jian somewhat strangely, not understanding why he was looking at her like that.

Qin Jian seemed to have just come back to his senses. He pulled away the small body of Ning Rongrong who was blocking him and said to Dugu Yan: "Have you not noticed?"

"Noticed what?" Dugu Yan was very confused.

Qin Jian hesitated slightly, but still said: "Please don't take offense at me speaking so freely, but I just discovered that your body... seems to have been invaded by chronic toxins?"

"I am poisoned?"

Dugu Yan's face was full of bewilderment. She quickly shook her head: "That's impossible! My own martial soul is highly toxic; how could I possibly be poisoned?"

Qin Jian shook his head and said earnestly: "The poison you have is the Jade Phosphor Snake poison. It should be the result of long-term use of the Jade Phosphor Serpent martial soul."

"This..."

Dugu Yan still had a look of suspicion on her face.

Qin Jian smiled and said: "I know you can't believe it, so I'm just saying it. Believe it if you want, it doesn't matter if you don't, but..."

"If my judgment is correct, continuing to be invaded like this will affect your lifespan."

This sentence he added caused Dugu Yan's expression to change drastically.

After a while, she finally recovered from the shock.

"Regarding what you said, I cannot judge, but I will tell my grandfather..."

Dugu Yan said to Qin Jian in a very solemn tone: "If this is true, then I will remember your good intentions. Thank you!"

Finally hearing her say this, Qin Jian felt a weight lift from his heart.

What I wanted was for you to go tell Dugu Bo...

He waved his hand and said: "I was just giving a reminder. As for solving this kind of long-term Jade Phosphor Snake poison invasion, I can't do it, unless it's a friend of mine..."

He said this last sentence extremely softly, yet controlled the volume to a level that Dugu Yan could barely hear.

Not until Qin Jian and Ning Rongrong had already left for several hundred meters did Dugu Yan suddenly come to her senses: "What he said in that last sentence just now was... he can solve the snake poison in my body?"

Another half an hour later, Qin Jian and Ning Rongrong finally stepped into the Special Grade Area.

And during this time, Dugu Yan had also finally found a suitable Soul Beast and began absorbing her Soul Ring.

The other students participating in the Soul Hunting had all finished and were now standing in front of the light screen, wanting to see what kind of Soul Beasts were in the Special Grade Area.

"Rongrong, your First Soul Skill increases attack power. It would be best if your Second Soul Skill increases Speed or defense. We will search for a Soul Beast according to this line of thought..."

The expressions of Qin Jian and Ning Rongrong finally became serious.

"And the age of the Soul Beast should preferably be in the 800 to 900-year range. I hope we can find a suitable one..."

Gradually, the two began to go deep into the Special Grade Area of the Soul Hunting Ground and encountered quite a few Soul Beasts.

But although their quality was good, either the attributes didn't match, or the age wasn't enough.

And an hour passed, and even Dugu Yan had already completed her Soul Ring absorption and walked out of the Soul Hunting Ground.

Now, the entire Heaven Dou Imperial Academy was watching Qin Jian and Ning Rongrong.

"Awoo! ——"

Just at this moment, a wolf's howl whistled over.

Qin Jian's eyes lit up: "This is the sound of a demon wolf; if it's a Swift Wind Demon Wolf, that would be perfect!"

The two of them hurriedly ran in the direction from which the roar came.

Before long, atop the mountain peak, a giant wolf wreathed in emerald-green wind swirls appeared before their eyes...

"It's actually a Swift Wind Demon Wolf with wings!"

Outside, the corner of Feng Xiaotian's eye twitched; this was clearly the Soul Beast most suited to him, even if the age was a little low...

"Swift Wind Demon Wolf, with wings, age..."

Qin Jian's eyes were sparkling: "900 years! Perfect!"

"Rongrong, this is the one!"

Seeing Qin Jian and Ning Rongrong charging toward the Twin-Winged Gale Demon Wolf on the mountain peak, those outside like Ning Fengzhi, Jian Douluo, and Meng Shenji all frowned.

"A 900-year Soul Beast; Jian'er and Rongrong can barely handle it, but this is a Swift Wind Demon Wolf, and its greatest specialty is Speed..."

Ning Fengzhi couldn't help but grip the cane under his hand: "It's impossible to catch up once it starts running, and it also has wings, which means this Swift Wind Demon Wolf... can fly!"

Jian Douluo likewise couldn't help but clench his fists: "Even in the Soul Hunting Ground, this Soul Beast is at an absolutely top-tier level; Jian'er... you must be careful..."
