BTTH I can strengthen all things

The black light entered Yun Tianming's body, leaving a thumb-sized black spot on his chest. Tiny black lines extended from the spot, connecting to some of the major meridians and acupoints in his body, making it look quite eerie.

"Whoosh!"

"Whoosh!"

"Whoosh!"

Yun Yun, Cai Lin, and Xiao Yi Xian instantly appeared by his side, anxiously examining him from head to toe. "Tianming, are you okay? How do you feel?"

Yun Tianming remained silent. He needed to focus his Spirit to mobilize the Jade Ocean Lotus Heart Fire to suppress the Demonic Poison Spot from corroding his internal organs.

"Ha ha! What a lucky fellow you are, but unfortunately, you're doomed!"

At this moment, Xie Bi Yan, after expending all the black light, had his organs fail, his white hair falling out like withered leaves. His face was covered in deep wrinkles, like a network of ravines. Even so, his murky eyes still gleamed with ferocity and killing intent.

"Damn it! What is this thing?"

Cai Lin placed her hand on Yun Tianming's chest, trying to use her powerful Dou Qi to expel the toxins inside. However, she found that the strange energy was connected to Yun Tianming's meridians, making it impossible to extract.

"This is a sinister technique from the Chu Yun Empire for practicers of Poison Dou Qi. It can gather the Poison Dou Qi from the entire body, shoot it into the enemy, and eventually form a black spot. This black spot will continuously release poisonous threads, and when these threads spread to every acupoint in the body, the meridians of the afflicted person will rapidly decay, causing endless suffering and death."

Xiao Yi Xian couldn't help but gasp, especially since Xie Bi Yan had used Dou Ancestor-level power to release it. Even she, a poison expert, couldn't remove it. To completely remove the Demonic Poison Spot, it would likely require a Dou Venerate-level expert.

"Poof! Poof!"

Yun Yun swiftly struck twice, severing Xie Bi Yan's arms, her cold voice carrying a chilling edge: "Hand over the antidote!"

"Ha ha! With the Demonic Poison Spot activated, I won't live long anyway. If this kid can join me, I won't be so lonely."

Xie Bi Yan said weakly.

"You old bastard, what did you say?!"

Cai Lin, enraged, swung her hand, unleashing a powerful Rainbow Dou Qi that smashed Xie Bi Yan's legs to pieces.

"Ahhh!"

With his limbs completely blasted away, Xie Bi Yan couldn't help but emit a painful wail.

"Ha ha. The harsher you are to me, the more I know that kid's position in your hearts is higher. Ha ha. This way, you'll suffer even more!"

Even as he was dying, Xie Bi Yan continued to rant.

"Xie Bi Yan, after your death, I will flatten the Ten Thousand Scorpions Gate and leave no one alive!"

Xiao Yi Xian's words, filled with cold killing intent, caused the smile on Xie Bi Yan's face to slightly freeze. After a moment, he slowly closed his eyes: "Heavenly Poison Woman, do as you wish. The Demonic Poison Spot, even the one who used it cannot cure, so that kid is doomed."

Seeing this, the three women's anger reached its peak. They attacked simultaneously, and the combined power of three Dou Ancestor-level forces instantly reduced Xie Bi Yan to nothing but shattered bones and ashes.

"Hey! Yun Tianming, are you really going to meet a mishap now?"

Zi Yan flew over, cautiously watching the unconscious Yun Tianming.

After a moment, under the concerned gazes of everyone, Yun Tianming slowly opened his eyes.

"Xie Bi Yan is dead, not even his soul remains. You're really wasting it."

The first statement made everyone feel both anxious and amused.

"Tianming, what's wrong with your body now?"

Yun Yun, looking worried, held his hand, causing Cai Lin and Xiao Yi Xian to frown.

Why is this woman so skilled?

"Don't worry, Sister Yun'er."

"This Demonic Poison Spot won't harm me."

Yun Tianming, with the three Heavenly Flames in his body, could suppress the erosion of the Demonic Poison Spot.

"But this thing is still highly poisonous, containing Xie Bi Yan's lifetime Dou Qi. Even I can't afford to ignore it." Xiao Yi Xian expressed her concern.

"It's fine. Although it's extremely poisonous, it also contains incredibly pure Dou Qi energy. As long as I refine it completely, my level will rise rapidly."

Upon hearing Yun Tianming's explanation, everyone finally understood.

"Well, you sly guy, so that was your plan."

Zi Yan playfully punched him.

"To absorb a full-force attack from a 4 Star Dou Ancestor into your body... I have to admit, your courage exceeds my expectations."

Cai Lin sighed deeply, a hint of admiration in her eyes. Only a daring man like him would dare to talk about conquering her.

"Hehe, if Xie Bi Yan knew this from beyond the grave, he'd probably be so angry he'd come back to life."

Xiao Yi Xian smiled slightly.

"Tianming, don't do such dangerous things in the future."

Yun Yun gave him a reproachful look.

With Xie Bi Yan's complete destruction, the balance of victory in the war tilted entirely in favor of the Misty Cloud Sect.

It's worth mentioning that at the end of the war, Nalan Yanran, who had been in seclusion in the Gate of Life and Death for a long time, emerged. Her strength as a 3 Star Dou Emperor created quite a stir.

"Master! Senior Brother Tianming, what's going on here?"

Nalan Yanran, just out of seclusion, looked at the devastated battlefield, her face full of confusion.

"Yanran, we'll talk about the details later. For now, join the fight and help clean up the mess."

Yun Tianming carefully observed her, a hint of surprise crossing his face. Nalan Yanran's aura seemed significantly stronger than a typical 3 Star Dou Emperor. Her Qi Method had also changed to a certain Earth Rank Mid Level, and there were traces of training in Earth Rank Dou Techniques on her. It's likely she obtained some powerful inheritance in the Gate of Life and Death.

"This master and disciple... hmph."

"Yun Tianming, you sure know how to play the game, huh?"

Cai Lin gave Yun Tianming a meaningful look with her arms crossed.

"If it's her, I'm not too far off."

Xiao Yi Xian's gaze swept over Nalan Yanran's well-developed figure, then compared herself to her.

"Uh, the weather is really nice today."

Faced with the various looks from everyone, Yun Tianming could only pretend not to notice.
