Chapter 505: Could it be that I’ve become more handsome recently?

He couldn’t believe what he was seeing—this guy had actually absorbed his “Triple Deadly Poison Mist” and then spat it back out. For the Poison King, this was nothing short of an utter humiliation.

In the Poison King’s eyes, he was the ultimate master of poisons. And yet, here someone dared to use poison right in front of him—and with his own no less. It was, without a doubt, a disgrace.

Lin Fan watched as the two poison dragons coiled around the Poison King, and his heart swelled with joy.

“Little punk, see how you like it now. These two poison dragons are my gift for you,” Lin Fan laughed, clearly delighted at the Poison King’s misfortune.

To be fair, the “Triple Deadly Poison Mist” was indeed formidable. Even when refined by the Celestial and Terrestrial Furnace, it writhed and resisted fiercely. Though eventually subdued, it had clearly shown its strength.

The Poison King now unleashed palm strike after palm strike, each crackling with thunderous energy, shattering the void itself.

“Brat, I underestimated you. Today, I’ll show you the might of my ultimate poison technique!” the Poison King roared, his hideous face twisting in rage.

“Poison Realm!”

Letting out a deafening howl, the Poison King’s hair—oozing boundless toxicity—flew wildly through the air, while his robe swelled outward with a booming sound.

A mighty force erupted from his body, piercing through heaven and earth.

In the void, hundreds of millions of poison creatures surged forth—some spewing raging flames, others spitting green venom, and some devouring the very space around them with a single bite.

In an instant, the two poison dragons were swallowed whole by these creatures.

“Brat, this is the Poison Realm I’ve cultivated with great effort. Today, I’ll show you what true terror feels like!” the Poison King bellowed, raising both hands as the toxic creatures within the realm churned violently.

“Hmph. You’re an Upper High-Rank expert of the Azure Heaven, yet you act so recklessly. That was just me toying with you earlier. Now, I’ll let you experience the most excruciating pain in existence,” Lin Fan sneered coldly, instantly activating the True Dao Seed within him.

“Reverse the Heavens!”

In an instant, Lin Fan spoke the technique’s name, and the True Dao Seed within him surged to life, unleashing a vast and mighty aura.

The void trembled slightly. Lin Fan gently extended his hand, and instantly, countless hands emerged across the heavens, reaching toward the Poison King.

“Hmph, you think such power can oppose me? You’re just dreaming! With my Poison Qi alone, I can block this entire move!” The Poison King scoffed at the swarm of grasping hands, utterly unimpressed. In an instant, a dark green glow erupted from his body, forming a protective barrier around him—seemingly indestructible.

To the Poison King, this move, although seemingly powerful, exuded an aura he considered utterly insignificant. Let it grasp all it wanted—what difference would it make?

“Boom!”

The swarm of hands struck the Poison King’s toxic barrier, producing crisp, sharp sounds. The hands quickly rotted away, sizzling with a corrosive hiss.

“Brat, stop wasting your energy. You’re no match for me. Just become food for my Poison Realm,” the Poison King howled, his eyes blazing with cruelty as he thrust a palm toward Lin Fan.

But at that very moment, a sharp, piercing sound of destruction suddenly rang out.

The Poison King’s expression changed instantly. He couldn’t believe his eyes—his Poison Qi had shattered at this moment.

“Ahh!”

A scream of agony erupted from the Poison King, fierce and pitiful, as if he were suffering the most unbearable torment imaginable.

“How is this possible?” The Poison King stared at Lin Fan in disbelief. How had this guy managed to destroy his Poison Qi? And even if he had, why did it cause such unbearable pain?

Seeing the Poison King’s current state, Lin Fan couldn’t help but smile.

After refining the “Reverse the Heavens” technique into the True Dao Seed, its power had vastly improved. Previously, each strike required his physical form to manifest, but now, with the True Dao Seed, he could strike across the void itself, unleashing boundless power with every move.

The real and the illusory intertwined. Just to play with the Poison King a bit, Lin Fan had hidden many ordinary attacks within the “Reverse the Heavens” technique.

Otherwise, with the “Reverse the Heavens” ability to strip away all defenses, how could a mere Poison Qi possibly resist?

“Poison King, this is the difference. Let me teach you a lesson—this is the price for acting recklessly,” Lin Fan said, stepping forward and pointing a single finger.

The True Dao Seed within him surged again, and the void cracked like shattered glass, splintering with a series of sharp sounds.

The Poison King wanted to fight back, but to his horror, he felt unbearable pain below his waist—so intense that it nearly shattered his mind.

He tried to circulate his true energy to resist the pain, only to find that the pain pierced through everything directly into his mind.

“What kind of technique is this? How can it be like this?” The Poison King roared furiously, his heart filled with resentment.

But it was already too late. He had no idea that Lin Fan had refined the True Dao Seed. With a single move, it summoned wails from ghosts and cries from gods. Even as an Upper High-Rank expert of the Azure Heaven, he was powerless.

If the Poison King had tried to flee earlier, he might still have had a sliver of hope. But now, there was no escape.

“You can’t kill me! I am a person of the Poison Realm. Spare me, and I’ll tell you something important—become your servant, if that’s what you want!” the Poison King pleaded desperately. He valued his life above all else.

In the Poison Realm, he had endured endless humiliation before climbing to the peak. After ascending to the Ancient Sage Realm, he had barely survived, cultivating to his current level. If he truly died here, he would never accept it.

“Hmph. You’re dead either way. I have no interest in servants, and I don’t care about your so-called important matters,” Lin Fan said coldly. He had no patience for such games with someone like the Poison King.

He was currently a Lower Mid-Rank expert of the Azure Heaven. Killing an Upper High-Rank opponent like the Poison King would grant him a substantial amount of experience—something he was more than happy to gain.

“Die!”

Heaven Split!

Lin Fan swung his axe, and the firmament itself seemed to split in two. Countless torrents of void energy erupted forth.

“No!” The Poison King screamed in agony, but in the blink of an eye, the axe light swept past—and all was silent.

“Ding! Congratulations on defeating the Upper High-Rank Poison King.”

“Ding! Experience increased by 30,000.”

“Ding! Congratulations on dropping the ‘Poison Scripture’.”

“Ding! Congratulations on dropping the ‘Secret Records of the Ancient Sage Realm’.”

After killing the Poison King, Lin Fan had planned to leave immediately. But he was shocked to find that two items had dropped—something he hadn’t expected at all.

Lin Fan knew that killing monsters could grant both experience and loot, though most of the time, nothing dropped at all. He had never really paid attention to it.

But now, after killing the Poison King, two items had actually dropped—something he found hard to believe.

Could it be that dropping loot sometimes depended on luck?

Could it be that he’d recently become more handsome, and his fortune had improved?
