Realms In The Firmament

Chapter 1725: The Worldly Poison Art

“The Art of Divine Poison is the most valuable treasure of the Thousand Poisons Clan. It is the best poison technique in the world. You shouldn’t need to cultivate a second martial art if you do well enough. However, I don’t think you have broken the limit for it. Otherwise, you should have been much better than this now.” Ye Xiao said.

“Lord Monarch, you are such a wise man. That is true.” The King of Poisons was shaking. It seemed he was grieved, so his eyes turned red. “That is the shame in my life. I thought I could bury it deep in my own heart forever... Well... Guess I can’t...”

He breathed a long sigh and said, “My ancestor was the third branch of the Thousand Poisons Clan. Our people went out for a mission and died. My mother survived, and she was pregnant. My birth was such hope for the third branch, but I wasn’t good at the Art of Divine Poison... My family clan kicked me out...”

Ye Xiao was surprised. “The Art of Divine Poison is extremely difficult to cultivate. Less than one of ten thousand people could master it perfectly. However, you can always fix it with some medicinal materials. I don’t think you have to be that talented to cultivate the martial art. Why did they have to kick you out?”

Tears in the eyes of the King of Poisons finally rushed out. He said, “The conflict among my brothers and I in my clan was the reason. The third branch was weak, so I didn’t really care about getting a high position in the clan or anything like that... However... My mother stole the medicinal materials from the storage for me, and they caught her... She was beaten to death...”

“The only reason why I am still alive is that I have to avenge my mother someday! However, day after day, I am still so weak...” The King of Poisons was in tears.

Ye Xiao nodded and said, “You can do it. As long as you are willing to work hard, I can make you powerful enough to avenge your mother!”

The King of Poisons was shocked. He raised up his head and looked at Ye Xiao. He said, “Lord Monarch, if that is what you will do to help me, I...”

The King of Poisons wanted to make a vow to pledge his loyalty, but he was already Ye Xiao’s follower. He should always be loyal to Ye Xiao.

He stopped and didn’t know what to say anymore.

Ye Xiao blandly smiled and said, “People in the Monarch’s Hall are all kings in the Limitless Ocean. Everybody wants to be king, not only me. King of Poisons, you are one of us now. You should be aiming at the peak of the Limitless Ocean as well!

“Since you don’t want to tell me your name, I guess I should just call you Poison King. I hope that the Monarch’s Hall will have a brilliant King of Poisons, king of kings!”

“Here. There is a martial art.” Ye Xiao took out a purple-color jade pendant and said, “It is the Worldly Poison Art. Have you heard of it before, Poison King?”

The King of Poisons heard the name of the book and started shaking. Suddenly, his face turned red and he was obviously too excited to stay calm. With shaking lips, he said, “The... Worldly Poison Art?”

Suddenly, he burst into tears and said, “Mother! Finally! I get an opportunity! I will avenge you!”

When the Flower King heard the name of the martial art, he was shocked as well.

‘All poisons are in the human realm; the most poisonous one travels the world!’

It was a legend in the Human Realm Upon Heavens. About one hundred thousand years earlier in the Human Realm Upon Heavens, there was a legend that almost reached the top of the world.

The Worldly Poison Art was The most powerful poisoning technique in the Human Realm Upon Heavens. It was the unique martial art of the great man, Du Shan, who was the most powerful subordinate of the Supremacy of the North, Ce Xingchen.

People who knew about this guy would call him the Supremacy with Poisons. His poison was the best in the world. The entire Human Realm Upon Heavens was in awe of his incredible poisoning skills.

He never wanted to be called the Supremacy with Poisons because he only recognized Ce Xingchen as the Supremacy. He only accepted the title of Poison Lord!

In the end, the Poison Lord died in Ji Qingxiao’s hands. The incredible technique of this Poison Lord was missing afterward!

Ji Qingxiao always said that the fight against the Poison Lord was the toughest fight he ever had. He was so much more powerful than the Poison Lord in cultivation, and that was why he could win the fight. If he was a little weaker, the Poison Lord would have become the true Supremacy of Poisons!

The Worldly Poison Art became a mystery. After a hundred thousand years, the world didn’t forget about the legend. It was still touching for the powerful cultivators in the world.

Nobody expected that Ye Xiao actually got the book.

After all, whoever got this martial art would eventually become another Poison Lord, even the Supremacy of Poisons!

The Poison King looked at the jade pendant, and he started shaking. He couldn’t stop the tears in his eyes. The next moment, he got down on his knees and humbly kowtowed nine times to Ye Xiao. In the end, he took over the purple jade pendant carefully.

His spiritual mind entered the pendant for a while, and his eyes turned red. He was overjoyed.

As he looked at Ye Xiao again, his eyes were full of respect.

‘I will spend my life to serve the great Lord Monarch! I swear!’

The Poison King didn’t say it out loud, but it took root in his heart already.

He had sworn to the heavens already!

“With your current recognition of the great Dao of Poisons, you know how to improve yourself. I am a layman, so I don’t have any instructions for you. However, there are two words I want to give you–work harder!” Ye Xiao peacefully said, “It all depends on human efforts. I won’t interfere with your family issues. You must fight for yourself. When you are powerful enough, you will put an end to it!”

“Thank you, Lord Monarch!”

The Poison King stood up solemnly. As he spoke to Ye Xiao, he was sincere and humble.

“Right. It is your turn now, girls. You must be anxious, aren’t you?” Ye Xiao happily smiled and touched the ladies’ heads gently. “I have given some deep thoughts, and I am sure your Dual Hearts Moonlight Art isn’t the best martial art for you...”
