It was unmistakably poison.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Meanwhile, Zou Feng seemed to be dancing gracefully in the toxic mist, his hands a blur as they conjured one \"Fire Lotus\" after another with dazzling finger movements.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>These Fire Lotuses quickly scattered on the wind, leaving streaks of gold within the grayish-white poison.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Although Tian Yun found Zou Feng’s \"Shaking Flower Hand\" dance captivating, the thought that this was a remote duel between two expert Poison Cultivators made her break out in a cold sweat for him. She couldn’t focus on the performance at all.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And if Zou Feng were to lose this duel, Tian Yun knew with certainty that she would not survive.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>That Brother Duan wouldn’t even need to appear. He could just wear her down with the poison mist until she died.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It made her sigh in amazement. The methods of a Poison Cultivator in situations like this were truly terrifying.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Killing without a trace\" wasn’t just an empty phrase.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Fortunately, Poison Cultivators were rare, especially in the Central Plains Region.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In truth, this was also Zou Feng’s first time dueling such a powerful Poison Cultivator.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The whole scene felt more like a competition of Skills.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>’So, if a Poison Cultivator like me truly embarks on the path of Immortal Cultivation, just how formidable will my techniques be?’\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As for the duel itself...\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Initially, Zou Feng’s Five Poison Creatures were being soundly suppressed by Duan Wuya.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It couldn’t be helped. Duan Wuya was a genuine powerhouse at the Peak of Sixth Grade, and his Poison Skill had reached the level of Refined Skill.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Although he hadn’t brought any Cultivation Skill to the Peak of Perfection, the poisons he used were from the Southern Border—all new concoctions that Zou Feng had never encountered.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As a result, even though Zou Feng’s poison resistance was maxed out, his body still needed time to adapt, analyze, and neutralize the toxins.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Thus, Zou Feng struggled considerably in the initial phase of the duel.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Within the grayish-white poison mist, only an occasional glint of gold would flash. The \"Fire Lotuses\" created by his Shaking Flower Hand barely made a ripple.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Seeing this, Duan Wuya, who was hidden nearby, couldn’t help but sneer.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>’A self-taught Poison Cultivator from the Central Plains Region actually dares to have a poison duel with me?’\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>’But this brat’s practice of the Five Poison Skill isn’t bad...’\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As fellow practitioners of the Poison Dao, and since the Five Poison Palm originated from Biyou Palace’s own Five Poison Skill, Duan Wuya recognized it almost instantly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Although Zou Feng had long since added his own flair to the Five Poison Skill and integrated other Cultivation Skills, its foundation was still the Five Poison Skill.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Duan Wuya had also practiced the Five Poison Skill, so when he saw Zou Feng’s hands, he nearly started drooling with greed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>’I never expected such a pleasant surprise today.’\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>’With these hands, my promotion to the Fifth Grade might be within reach...’\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At this moment, Duan Wuya felt like a spider watching its prey struggle futilely in a web.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But just as he thought it was time to \"close the net,\" Duan Wuya noticed something strange. ’Why is this prey getting stronger the more it struggles?’\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Five Poison Fire Lotus Skill (Peak of Perfection), Progress: 7%\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Thanks to his Cultivation while fleeing and dueling with poison, his Five Poison Fire Lotus Skill had just increased by a full five percentage points.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Zou Feng was overjoyed to see this.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>An increase of five points might not seem like much, but this was a Cultivation Skill at the Peak Realm. Even an increase of one or two points provided a significant boost to his combat power.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The improvement in his Cultivation Skill made his Shaking Flower Hand technique even more masterful.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>’I don’t have a mirror, but I can tell from Tian Yun’s gaze—somewhere between admiration and worship—that I’ve definitely reached the ultimate state of the Shaking Flower Hand.’\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>’If this were my past life, a short video of this would definitely go viral.’\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The golden light from the \"Fire Lotuses\" was no longer fleeting. It now lingered in the grayish-white poison mist for some time.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Eventually, the poison mist surrounding Zou Feng was completely dyed gold.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Tian Yun immediately felt the pressure on her decrease sharply.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She had been struggling to endure the effects of the poison mist.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But as Zou Feng began to gain the upper hand, Tian Yun immediately felt a great sense of relief.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This was thanks to the Antitoxic Elixir Zou Feng had given her earlier, which was designed to resist the poison of his Five Poison Fire Lotus Skill.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Furthermore, after her recent period of intimate and in-depth \"exchange\" with Zou Feng, she had naturally developed a certain resistance to the poisons in his body.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The combination of the Scorpion Poison and the grayish-white poison mist released by Duan Wuya created a \"Melting Furnace\"-like environment for Zou Feng.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This allowed him to both practice his Skill and be \"refined\" by the Melting Furnace at the same time.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With all these favorable factors, the shackles of the Gang Qi Realm were gradually being broken, bit by bit...\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Seeing this, Duan Wuya, who had been certain of his victory, was completely dumbfounded.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He couldn’t understand it at all. ’How did I, who had the clear upper hand in this poison duel, suddenly lose my advantage?’\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Duan Wuya could rack his brains and never figure it out. His impending defeat wasn’t just due to Zou Feng’s increased strength from his Cultivation progress.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It was also because he was suffering the side effects of Zou Feng’s practice, which unknowingly prevented him from maintaining the intensity of his own poison.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As one’s power waned and the other’s waxed, the outcome of this poison duel was sealed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"KEKEKE...\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Having turned the tables, Zou Feng began his Heart Attack Technique, letting out an eerie laugh.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Duan, you must be able to tell that I’m about to break through, right?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"You’ve already botched this, but I’ll tell you what. You still have one last chance...\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Hurry up and think of another way to stop me from reaching the Sixth Grade, or just get the hell out of here. If you do, you might still have a chance to live!\" Zou Feng shouted, his hands a blur as he continued the Shaking Flower Hand.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The process of Inner Qi converting into Gang Qi was obvious, so of course, Duan Wuya had noticed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He was already preparing to attack directly. After all, he had lost the poison duel. Dragging this out any longer would only put him at a greater disadvantage.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>’Fortunately, even if I have to fight him head-on, with my power at the Peak of Sixth Grade, I should still have the advantage. I’ll win!’\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>However, Zou Feng’s brazen challenge, giving Duan Wuya a choice, actually made him hesitate.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>’It’s as if... he’s deliberately baiting me into attacking...’\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Filled with suspicion, Duan Wuya quietly retracted the foot he had just moved forward.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>’But I can’t just leave with my tail between my legs. I’m not willing to accept this.’\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>For a moment, Duan Wuya stood there, utterly conflicted.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This was precisely what Zou Feng wanted: to make Duan Wuya paranoid and indecisive.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The fact that Duan Wuya had chosen to hide and use poison first, despite clearly having superior strength, showed that the man was overly cautious.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Therefore, Zou Feng deduced that Duan Wuya would likely be caught in a dilemma and wouldn’t choose to attack right away.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This bought him more time for his Inner Qi to convert into Gang Qi.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>’After all, if Duan Wuya had attacked just now, my breakthrough would have been interrupted, and the consequences would have been unpredictable.’\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Time’s almost up. Still not going to make a move?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Zou Feng had to keep up the bluff. If he focused solely on his breakthrough, Duan Wuya would soon realize something was amiss.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But a bluff could only last so long. After a moment, Duan Wuya finally saw through the ruse. With a cold snort, he furiously attacked.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The next moment, a poison spike made of Gang Qi shot up from the ground beneath Zou Feng’s feet with almost no warning.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Fortunately, Zou Feng had been on constant alert for Duan Wuya’s attack. He leaped high into the air without a moment’s hesitation, narrowly avoiding the blow.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Not far away, Duan Wuya used the cover of the poison mist to constantly shift his position, rapidly closing in on Zou Feng and Tian Yun.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He was like a giant venomous creature concealed in the mist, finally baring its fangs at its prey.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Sister Yun, I’m going to have to trouble you!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Stall him! I just need a little more time!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His earlier bluff had bought him some time, but it wasn’t enough.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Fortunately, Tian Yun was in good shape. Even if she was no match for Duan Wuya, she should be able to hold him off for a little while without much trouble.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Zou Feng was indeed on the verge of a breakthrough. Since he was already at the Half-Step Gang Qi Realm, the conversion of his Inner Qi was proceeding smoothly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Duan Wuya’s decision to track him down and engage in a poison duel had, ironically, accelerated the process.\u003C\u002Fp>",1565,"2026-05-29T16:26:41.325Z","2026-06-01T04:29:44.377Z",1,"novelbin.me","9adc1fc7c49cd3cb50d157e240630587f24d9dcf56343b070ec20ee5cd89a1ff","i-can-transfer-the-side-effects-of-evil-skills-chapter-197","i-can-transfer-the-side-effects-of-evil-skills-chapter-195",429,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fi-can-transfer-the-side-effects-of-evil-skills-cover.jpg"]
