Chapter 50: Fifty Mo Qing
"Indeed!"
Talisman Poison Master wouldn’t care about Yun Xiao’s life or death. After extracting the Seven-Colored Immortal Spider, he pressed it against the boy’s wrist. This time, however, the situation was vastly different from before, prompting him to exclaim in a low voice.
Before, the venomous snake dared not even bite Yun Xiao’s skin, but this Seven-Colored Immortal Spider was eager to sink its fangs into Yun Xiao’s wrist the moment it made contact, greedily sucking his fresh blood.
In just an instant, the area around Yun Xiao’s wrist turned into a swirl of colors, clearly indicating that he had been poisoned by the Seven-Colored Immortal Spider, and the fierce poison was spreading towards his elbow and even his right shoulder.
After roughly the time it takes to burn half an incense stick, not only had Yun Xiao’s right arm become multicolored, but also a faint rainbow hue began to emerge on his face, a clear sign that the poison of the Seven-Colored Immortal Spider had spread throughout his body. A typical cultivator at the Meridian Introduction Realm Middle Stage might have already perished.
However, Yun Xiao’s faint breath could still be heard, and this spectacle sparked a sliver of hope in the eyes of Talisman Poison Master and his disciple. If Yun Xiao really could withstand the intense poison of the Seven-Colored Immortal Spider, then perhaps their plan could be put into action.
As Yun Xiao’s entire body was being ravaged by the poison of the Seven-Colored Immortal Spider, his soul, cursing furiously within, suddenly discovered that the golden insect, which had been opposing him and vying for control of his body, seemed to be quite amused by something at this moment, relaxing its struggle against Yun Xiao’s soul slightly.
This undoubtedly provided a glimmer of relief to the extremely irate Yun Xiao who seized the opportunity to exert the Power of Soul, finally regaining some ground in the fight.
Moreover, Yun Xiao’s soul could see clearly that what attracted the golden insect was the invasive venom of the Seven-Colored Immortal Spider. The insect seemed to have found a delectable feast and began to devour the venom.
However, compared to the poisons previously encountered, like the Five Poison Palm and the snake venom the Talisman Poison Master used at the Shang Family, this poison was in a league of its own. The golden insect wasn’t able to consume it as quickly.
