Chapter 3817: Two Cultivation Techniques

"Do I now have the strength to oppose the Ten Thousand Poison Witch?" Ye Liuyun asked casually of the poison soul he had brought out.

"No!" the poison soul said without any hesitation.

Ye Liuyun didn't feel embarrassed; if he could defeat the Ten Thousand Poison Witch by absorbing a little poison source, then that witch would be too weak. Nevertheless, he didn't change his mind.

"Then we still have to go. If we can't match his poison source, I still have Kuailei!"

He found that the combat ability of these Poison Witch Clan members was indeed poor. Once their toxins failed, they had no advantage at all in fights of the same realm.

"Master, many strong practitioners have been patrolling nearby!" Zhan Kong also reported the outside situation to Ye Liuyun.

"Hmm."

Ye Liuyun nodded; he guessed that the Ten Thousand Poison Witch had discovered two of his subordinates were dead, so he had increased patrols.

"You've worked hard, go rest."

Ye Liuyun immediately had Zhan Kong withdraw the Space World to prevent him from being poisoned by soul toxin, then he promptly let the poison soul lead the way, rushing again toward the Ten Thousand Poison Witch's residence.

As soon as they entered the Xingkong, they encountered Poison Witch Envoys patrolling nearby; Ye Liuyun simply released Skeleton Puppets to fight, letting them gain experience.

This time Ye Liuyun also deployed a Clone Puppet; the two of them coordinated with Red Pupil Illusion Technique, and even forced an envoy to insert its Soul into Ye Liuyun's Sea of Consciousness, where Ye Liuyun planted a Slave Seal.

However, after they controlled that one envoy, before they could seize the others, those people were all killed by the puppets.

The corpses were actively taken away by the poison soul, used as cultivation resources.

Afterwards, when they reached the Ten Thousand Poison Witch's cultivation site, they faced another large-scale assault. Several Poison Witch Envoys, accompanied by many clan members, blocked them.

But the result was the same. Ye Liuyun used Red Pupil Illusion Technique to capture two envoys, and the remaining people were all slain by the puppets.

Afterwards the poison soul refused to move forward, saying that approaching that Xingqiu would cause poisoning. Ye Liuyun's Golden Pupil had actually already seen that a ring of Black Fog enveloped the planet's surroundings.

Since the poison soul dared not go, Ye Liuyun had to confirm the location, using his Golden Pupil to lock onto the Ten Thousand Poison Witch in the Xingkong.

To Ye Liuyun, that Ten Thousand Poison Witch no longer looked human. Poisonous fluid seeped from everywhere on his body, his skin was corroded to the point of ruin. If not for the surrounding toxic Black Fog, a normal person would vomit just from a glance.

"Ugh!"

Ye Liuyun's Golden Pupil allowed him to see the Ten Thousand Poison Witch clearly.

"This guy is ruthless, training himself into this state!"

The Ten Thousand Poison Witch, like a Life Witch, instantly sensed Ye Liuyun's gaze.

"Huh? How can they all detect me? Could this Ten Thousand Poison Witch have also cultivated a fortune‑bearing technique?" Ye Liuyun wondered, not daring to act rashly, and asked the poison soul.

"He already practices Poison Technique, how could he poison himself to that extent..." The poison soul stopped mid‑sentence, its mouth frozen as if restrained.

"What's wrong?" Ye Liuyun thought he might have been poisoned.

The poison soul recovered, shouting to Ye Liuyun, "I know why he's like that! He cultivated the Life Witch's technique... My god! He must be incredibly strong now... Let's retreat!"

"He really mastered two techniques?" Ye Liuyun wasn't too worried. Even if the Ten Thousand Poison Witch had cultivated both, his Skeleton Puppets would still be useless.

"Yes, otherwise his whole body wouldn't be flooded with poison. Our Poison Witch clan is limited by the body; we can only focus on one technique. Poison cultivators can occasionally learn simple witchcraft without issue, but over‑cultivation leads to this result."

As the poison soul spoke, it trembled all over and stepped back.

Ye Liuyun, seeing his fear, had to pull him and the recently captured envoys back into the Space World, then released a hundred Skeleton Soldiers, letting them

go slay the Ten Thousand Poison Witch.

At the same time, the Clone Puppet again employed the Godslaying Bow, firing an arrow straight at the Ten Thousand Poison Witch.

Since they couldn't approach, they coordinated long‑range attack and assault puppets. Even if the Ten Thousand Poison Witch were extremely strong, his poison‑spreading and curses still required distance.

And just as the Clone's arrow flew, the poisonous fog surrounding the planet suddenly expanded rapidly, instantly engulfing Ye Liuyun and the Clone.

That black poisonous fog was far richer in toxin than the sources from the two earlier Poison Witch Envoys.

"Sizzle—" a sound, and his clothing was instantly corroded away. Even though his Ten Thousand Poison Heart Sutra was fully absorbing and refining the toxin, his Physical Body was immediately corroded by a layer.

The Clone fared better, since its surface was metal, but its exterior was also slowly being corroded.

Both rushed backward quickly. Simultaneously, the Clone Puppet erupted with Nether Ghost Fire, enveloping the two and burning away the surrounding poisonous fog.

Ye Liuyun's flames were still refining that metal, not yet deployed.

The two retreated far again, finally breaking free from the toxic fog circle.

"Truly strong!"

Ye Liuyun sincerely admired the Ten Thousand Poison Witch. His Ten Thousand Poison Heart Sutra and poison source were already formidable; he hadn't expected even a single glance to be unblocked.

His Ten Thousand Poison Heart Sutra ran a while longer, then absorbed all toxins from himself and the Clone Puppet, after which he changed clothes and reconsidered how to deal with the Ten Thousand Poison Witch.

The Clone Puppet kept watching the battle, reporting to Ye Liuyun, "He indeed cultivated a fortune‑bearing technique; just now he used it to block an arrow! Those puppets were all intercepted by his subordinates!"

"What about another arrow?"

"The distance is a bit far, it's useless!"

After a brief exchange, Ye Liuyun immediately released three hundred Skeleton Soldiers to attack. Once those Skeleton Soldiers joined the battle formation, the Poison Witch clan could no longer hold them back.

"Bad! That guy is charging over!"

Ye Liuyun and the Clone Puppet simultaneously noticed the Ten Thousand Poison Witch rushing toward them, dragging a mass of Black Fog.

The Clone Puppet, without hesitation, fired arrow after arrow at the Ten Thousand Poison Witch, fearing his approach.

Ye Liuyun also drew the Demon Slaying Sword, chopping blade after blade to form a vast blade net ahead, aiming to keep him at bay.

After the Ten Thousand Poison Witch stubbornly absorbed two arrows from the Godslaying Bow, he also felt the effort was taxing.

He let out a roar, and the Black Fog that had enveloped him suddenly transformed into a skull shape, lunging toward Ye Liuyun and the others.

"Fire Spirit!"

Ye Liuyun didn't hesitate, immediately summoning the two Fire Spirits that were refining metal. At that moment, the Clone Puppet's two Fire Spirits had already rushed out, blocking the Black Fog briefly.

After releasing the Fire Spirits, the two fled quickly, unwilling to linger. The Clone Puppet seized the chance to fire two more arrows at the Ten Thousand Poison Witch.

Ye Liuyun then tossed out another hundred Skeleton Soldiers to slay the Ten Thousand Poison Witch.
