Chapter 52 The Soul-Trapping Sect and the Soul-Disturbing King are ineffective against Ye Tianchen!
With a slight thought, she channeled her soul power into the dagger.
The next second, a dazzling green light suddenly burst forth from the dagger.
A stream of dark green liquid shot out from the tip of the knife, twisting and stretching in the air like a living thing, before finally transforming into a thin "spider web" that accurately struck the stone!
"laugh--!"
The moment the liquid touched the stone, it solidified and crystallized.
The millstone-sized rock was completely enveloped by a layer of translucent dark green crystals in the blink of an eye.
It was sealed inside, like an insect in amber, unable to move.
Dugu Yan's eyes widened.
She walked up to the crystallized stone and tapped it.
The crystals were hard and cold, and they made a crisp sound.
"This...this is..."
"Crystallized Venom."
Ye Tianchen walked over and carefully observed the crystal.
"One of the Black Spiderweb Python's abilities, which you inherited from your spirit bone skill, is that it can transform venom into crystals to trap enemies."
Dugu Yan was so excited she almost jumped for joy.
"So, I can seal the enemy inside the crystal?"
"That's how it is in theory."
Ye Tianchen nodded.
"However, we still need to test how strong an enemy it can trap."
A look of eager anticipation gleamed in Dugu Yan's eyes.
She looked at Ye Tianchen, and the look in her eyes sent a chill down his spine.
"What...what do you want to do?"
"Don't worry, I won't hurt you."
Dugu Yan smiled like a little fox.
"It's just a test to see if you can break free from my crystal bondage."
Ye Tianchen sighed helplessly.
"Bring it on."
Dugu Yan took a deep breath and activated her spirit bone technique once again.
This time, she injected even more soul power.
The two daggers simultaneously emitted a dazzling emerald light, and two streams of dark green venom shot towards Ye Tianchen like twin dragons emerging from the sea.
Ye Tianchen did not dodge.
The moment the venom hit him, it quickly solidified and crystallized.
A layer of translucent, dark green crystals spread at a visible speed, starting from his feet and rapidly covering his legs, waist, chest...
Finally, only his head was sticking out.
Ye Tianchen looked down at his body, which was sealed inside the crystal, and felt the hardness of the crystal.
"Good,"
He commented.
"It has high hardness and good toughness. It is basically impossible for a Soul Master below level 40 to break free."
"What about levels 40 and above?"
Dugu Yan asked nervously.
"Unless it is a power-type offensive Soul Master of the same level as you, it is difficult for other Soul Masters above level 40 to break free. Only Soul King level Soul Masters can break free from your spirit bone skill."
Ye Tianchen sensed it carefully and gave his answer.
"And what about you? Can I trap you?"
While overjoyed, Dugu Yan couldn't help but show a hint of curiosity on her face.
Although Ye Tianchen's soul power was only level 39, his strength was even more terrifying than that of a Soul King.
"Me?"
Ye Tianchen's mind stirred slightly, and golden lightning flashed around his body.
"Snap—"
A tiny crack appeared on the crystal.
Immediately afterward, as if triggering some kind of chain reaction, in less than a breath, the dark green crystal shattered and fell softly at Ye Tianchen's feet.
"To be more specific, a level 45 offensive Soul Master can probably last three breaths if they struggle with all their might, but a Soul King can shatter it in one breath."
Dugu Yan nodded. Her disappointment at Ye Tianchen easily breaking free from her spirit bone technique vanished in an instant, replaced by a faint excitement.
"So that means the control effect of this spirit bone skill is very effective against Soul Masters, and also has an interfering effect on Soul Kings?"
"Right."
Ye Tianchen shook off the remaining crystal fragments on his body.
"And this is just the most basic usage. Your venom can crystallize without discarding the highly toxic form, or it can choose to use the highly toxic form without discarding the crystallization form. Strong control is control, and soft control is also control. Choose whichever is more convenient."
Dugu Yan gripped the dagger in her hand, a surge of unprecedented confidence welling up within her.
"Thank you."
She suddenly said to Ye Tianchen.
Ye Tianchen was stunned for a moment.
"Why are you thanking me again?"
"Thank you for allowing me to obtain the method of poison pills."
Dugu Yan looked at him intently.
"Thank you for helping me hunt down the Black Spiderweb Python. Thank you... for allowing me to use my power in this way."
Ye Tianchen was silent for a moment, then smiled.
"You're welcome. After all, you helped me, didn't you?"
Looking at his smile, Dugu Yan suddenly felt a stirring in her heart.
She quickly looked away, pretending to examine the dagger in her hand.
"Um... I'll try some other uses..."
Ye Tianchen nodded, stepped aside, and watched her excitedly spray venom, crystallize, re-crystallize, and spray again at various things, just like a child who had received a new toy.
In the sunlight, the purple figure leaped lightly, two small tiger teeth peeking out from her smile.
It was beautiful and heartwarming.
Ye Tianchen leaned against the tree, quietly watching this scene.
Time flowed like water, quietly passing by.
More than a month passed since Dugu Yan absorbed those two poisonous fangs.
This highly poisonous land, feared by both humans and spirit beasts, had now become a cozy secret base for them.
"What's the name of this one?"
Ye Tianchen squatted in front of a pure white herb, carefully examining its leaves and stamens.
The herb had nine leaves, each shimmering with a faint silver light, and a small white flower bloomed at its tip, emitting a delicate fragrance.
"Nine-Leaf Silverlight Grass."
Dugu Yan stood behind him, her shoulder-length purple hair fluttering gently in the morning breeze.
"It takes thirty years to flower, thirty years to bear fruit, and thirty years to mature. It can be used to refine antidote pills, which are very effective against many snake venoms."
Ye Tianchen nodded and silently made a note of it.
This was the seventy-third herb he had recorded.
For the past month or so, apart from his regular daily cultivation time, he had spent almost all his time learning to identify medicinal herbs from Dugu Yan.
The area around the Yin-Yang Ice And Fire Eyes was filled with all sorts of exotic flowers and herbs, including Immortal Herbs, spiritual medicines, poisonous plants, and rare treasures.
Dugu Yan grew up here with her grandfather and knew every medicinal herb like the back of her hand.
Ye Tianchen studied very diligently.
After all, this was a real world, and besides, it was always good to have more skills.
"You have such a good memory. I told you about so many herbs, and you remembered them all. When I was little, it was really hard for me to remember these things."
"If you try to remember it, you will naturally remember it."
Ye Tianchen stood up and looked at Dugu Yan.
"But you, spending every day helping me identify medicinal herbs, don't you get bored?"
Dugu Yan blinked, then suddenly revealed a sly smile.
"It is a bit boring, but..."
She paused, deliberately drawing out the sound.
"I'm quite happy when someone is with me."
Ye Tianchen was stunned for a moment, then burst into laughter.
For more than a month, he had accompanied Dugu Yan in her cultivation every day, helping her familiarize herself with the use of the two poisonous fang daggers, and chatting with her about all sorts of random things.
Their feelings for each other grew stronger quietly as they spent time together day after day.
