第2007章 宁惹强敌三千，莫欺毒师一人！

Chapter 2007: Better to Offend Three Thousand Fierce Enemies Than to Bully a Single Poison Master!

"Baili Xiang..."

Yu Wenfeng was momentarily dazed—such a beautiful name, yet deadly at the slightest touch!

Was this... the strength of the chief elder of the Danchen Pavilion?

Better to offend three thousand fierce enemies than to bully a single poison master!

This saying suddenly popped into Yu Wenfeng's mind.

It was a proverb widely circulated in the Tongtian Realm, but in truth, it had been too long since anyone remembered it.

The meaning was simple: rather than provoke three thousand formidable foes, do not defy a single grandmaster of the poison path!

Clearly, the deterrent power of a poison master was extremely strong!

The poison path was merely a branch of the alchemy path.

And a powerful alchemy god rarely diverted energy to study the poison path.

A poison master was a fearsome profession; very few dared to provoke them.

Experts who studied the poison path were often ruthless individuals who acted without scruples.

Once, a seven-star poison master, in a fit of rage, poisoned an entire imperial capital into a dead city, with no one escaping.

In Lü Yan's impression, Ye Yuan was merely a peerless genius who could defeat or even kill Lü Ziyi.

But he had forgotten that Ye Yuan was also a terrifyingly formidable alchemy master!

Ye Yuan's understanding of the alchemy path had long since reached the essence, and his poison path attainments were not much inferior to his alchemy.

It was just that Ye Yuan rarely used poison, so the world did not know.

But today, he shocked the world!

Baili Xiang was a potent poison developed by Ye Yuan; even a True God at the Ninth Layer would have a slim chance of survival if poisoned.

But how easy was it to poison a True God at the Ninth Layer?

A great expert at the True God realm could easily block poison by activating their protective divine energy and world domain.

Therefore, Ye Yuan used the laws of space to set up a large poison formation in the void.

This poison formation also incorporated highly corrosive Erosion Water.

As long as anyone entered this space, Ye Yuan would activate the formation, and Baili Xiang would penetrate the warriors' world domains along with the Erosion Water, poisoning them.

This was a grand formation meticulously arranged by Ye Yuan specifically to deal with these True God realm experts.

As for those Heavenly Gods, they were merely collateral damage.

The range of the poison formation Ye Yuan set up was not large, so the vast majority of Heavenly God warriors escaped unscathed.

But the shock in their hearts at this moment was beyond words.

"So... so terrifying! Thousands of True God realm experts, seventy percent dead in an instant! Seventy percent!"

"What kind of terrifying opponent did Lü Yan the Heavenly Venerate provoke!"

"Master Ye Yuan healed the world and saved countless lives. But no one expected him to be such a fearsome poison master!"

...

Watching the True God experts still struggling, everyone gasped in cold air, their faces pale.

Such a scene was unforgettable for life.

Too shocking!

"Master Ye... Ye was forced to do this! He warned us before, but... but we simply didn't listen!" someone in the crowd suddenly said.

Dead silence!

They suddenly recalled Ye Yuan's sigh.

It turned out that until the very last moment, Ye Yuan had not wanted to use this poison formation.

But he had no choice; facing such powerful enemies, without drastic measures, he could not survive this calamity.

Soon, True God Seventh Layer experts began to fall one after another.

Yu Wenfeng watched this scene, his heart turning icy cold.

In his life of over a million years, he had never been so grateful for a decision.

In Yu Wenfeng's ear, Ye Yuan said calmly, "Baili Xiang is a potent poison I created after breaking through to the sixth rank. Even a True God at the Ninth Layer, if they smell the fragrance, will have no recourse even with heaven-reaching abilities. I did not want to do such a cruel thing, but these people were clearly willing to be Lü Yan's lackeys, so I had no choice. I gave them a chance; they missed it themselves."

Yu Wenfeng's mind could not calm down for a long time.

After a long while, he took a deep breath and said, "Master Ye has already shown mercy! If you were truly ruthless, few of these hundred thousand people would have survived!"

Ye Yuan nodded slightly and said, "I set up the poison formation in the void and roughly calculated the range. If I made it smaller, there might have been fish that slipped through the net!"

Yu Wenfeng's heart pounded with fear; Ye Yuan's methods were simply unimaginable.

Setting up such a terrifying poison formation in the void—probably only a freak like Ye Yuan could do it, right?

The shock of the warriors in the city was no less than that of those Heavenly Gods outside.

They stared fixedly at the sky, even forgetting to cheer.

"Did... did we win?" someone in the crowd suddenly said, and it instantly erupted.

"Lord Ye Yuan is truly amazing! I always thought he was just a top-tier alchemy god, but his poison path attainments are no less than his alchemy!"

"So many late-stage True God experts... just... just vanished?"

"Heh, they deserved to die! These people came to massacre the city, yet Lord Ye Yuan still gave them a chance; they brought it upon themselves!"

"Haha... We really chose the right person! Our Tianying Imperial Capital might develop into a top-tier Heavenly Emperor's dojo in the future!"

...

The city was jubilant!

Ever since Lü Yan issued the Heavenly Venerate Decree, they had been in despair.

Until today, Ye Yuan, with drastic measures, gave Lü Yan a resounding slap!

This slap was enough to shock the world!

...

Wuxiao Imperial Capital, City Lord's Mansion.

"Brother Lü, by this hour, Tianying Imperial Capital should have been razed to the ground, right?" Deng Yun calculated the time, feeling quite pleased.

Lü Yan nodded and said, "It should be about time! That brat Ye Yuan must be in despair by now, right? When they escort him to Wuxiao Imperial Capital, I will make him understand what it means to wish he were dead."

Dai Chunhao gritted his teeth and said, "A hundred thousand warrior army pressing down, blotting out the sky and covering the earth. He must be trembling now, right?"

Lü Yan sneered, "I want his despair! Otherwise, even grinding his bones to dust would not quell the hatred in my heart."

As the three were speaking, a black-armored soldier stumbled into the hall.

"City Lord! City Lord! Something terrible has happened!" the black-armored soldier said, panicked and incoherent.

Lü Yan frowned and said coldly, "What's the matter? Weren't you supposed to monitor the news over there? Why are you so flustered? Has the sky fallen?"

The black-armored soldier said with a mournful face, "City Lord, two Heavenly Venerates, the sky has truly fallen! Under the Heavenly Venerate Decree, from the one hundred and eighty-seven imperial capitals under Wuxiao Imperial Capital, four thousand three hundred and twenty-one True God realm experts... all... all..."

At this point, the black-armored soldier could no longer speak.

Lü Yan's body trembled, and a terrifying aura erupted from him as he roared, "All what?"

The black-armored soldier swallowed his saliva and said in a voice as faint as a mosquito, "Completely annihilated!"
