The business acumen of these people is impressive.
They know that during this time, the Poison God’s legacy opens.
Many people are heading this way.
So countless people gather here, drawing in passing visitors, with many spending lavishly.
They can also earn quite a bit of money.
"Dear guests, take my boat, it’s faster and more stable,” the old man steering the boat said with a smile.
"Our boats all belong to the Gongsun family.
They are powered by Spirit Stones.
In just an hour, you’ll reach the Legacy Land.”
Xu Zimei thought for a moment and then stepped forward with Ji Zhan.
The Gongsun family is quite famous in this area.
In this East Sea domain, they control the whole sea region.
However, now that the Poison God’s legacy has appeared,
It is naturally impossible for them to monopolize it with their strength.
After Xu Zimei and Ji Zhan boarded the boat, as the old man had said, the boat was very fast.
Along the way,
Xu Zimei saw many people, almost hundreds, all taking boats.
Moreover, these people were powerful.
It makes sense, considering that ordinary people wouldn’t dare to compete for the legacy.
Finally, close to the Poison God’s legacy, the boat stopped.
Xu Zimei advised Ji Zhan, “Take care of yourself; when I snatch the legacy, I might not be able to look after you.”
"Don’t worry, I won’t cause any trouble, just here for the ride,” Ji Zhan replied with a smile.
"How far is it from here to the Three Corpse Evil Land?” Xu Zimei asked again.
"Three days is enough,” Ji Zhan replied.
"If we travel at full speed.
But the Three Corpse Evil Land is not a place one can enter at will.
Each year, it only opens during special periods.”
"What special period?” Xu Zimei inquired.
He initially wanted to go directly to the Three Corpse Evil Land, but realizing that even if he went, he couldn’t enter if it wasn’t open.
So he decided to check out the Poison God’s legacy first.
The entrance to the Poison God’s legacy is eerily quiet.
It’s no exaggeration to say that no trees or plants can survive here.
Even some low-level practitioners who approach the Legacy Land find their footsteps corroded by spreading poison, vanishing into smoke.
Not even their White Bone remains.
From afar, the Poison God’s legacy appears like a maze.
The maze is set beneath a high slope.
It is very hard for others to discover here.
Additionally, a formation conceals it from view.
It is said that if it weren’t for the poison beast passing through here and opening the legacy, it might remain undiscovered for years.
"There’s lethal poison everywhere around; everyone be careful,” someone shouted.
At this moment, many people displayed their various powers.
Turning hands, one’s body became covered with a thin layer of armor.
This armor was immune to all poisons.
At least, the poisons in front of the legacy couldn’t harm him.
Some also held antidote pills in their mouths.
In short, like the tale of the Eight Immortals crossing the sea, each displayed their unique skills.
The front of the legacy was bustling with activity.
Xu Zimei had just arrived here and didn’t recognize anyone.
Looking at Ji Zhan, he said, “You wait outside; I don’t know what’s inside.”
Ji Zhan nodded.
He was obedient and not greedy for the legacy.
Without any protection, Xu Zimei began walking toward the interior of the legacy’s cave.
There were dozens of caves around here.
While sitting, Xu Zimei suddenly encountered a man walking toward him.
This was a middle-aged man.
His gaze was sharp, clearly a body cultivator.
The muscles on his body were well-defined.
He smiled and said, “Fellow Daoist, care to travel together?
Inside is filled with dangers, traveling together would be much safer.”
"Who are you?” Xu Zimei asked.
"A loose cultivator named Ouyang Xiu,” the man replied.
"I’m also alone.
Seeing that you’re alone too,
We’ll be safer together.”
"Let’s go then,” Xu Zimei thought it didn’t matter since he didn’t know the other’s intentions.
Just having a local companion meant he could glean some information.
"How much do you know about the Poison God?” Xu Zimei asked.
"To be honest, not much.
I came here just because I’d heard rumors of powerful legacies.
Ouyang Xiu laughed.
"I believe most people are like me.
Truly understanding the Poison God, very few do.”
"I heard that the poison beast was once the Poison God’s pet and mount. After appearing, do you know where it went?” Xu Zimei asked.
"Some say the poison beast left.
Others say it entered the legacy.
In any case, rumors abound and it’s hard to know who to trust.”
Xu Zimei nodded.
The two of them walked into the maze inside the cave while chatting.
Along the way, Ouyang Xiu continued to introduce things to Xu Zimei.
"You see that young man flying with a sword? That’s the Sword Tomb inheritor, quite famous in our Kun Ruins Domain.”
"And that big man over there.
His name is Hong Ruhai, already ranked in the top one hundred of the Kun Ruins Supreme Rankings, climbing up quickly.”
It was also at this moment that Xu Zimei learned.
In the Kun Ruins Domain, there is an organization called the Heavenly Eye.
They established the Supreme Rankings and the Dragon Rankings.
These two rankings catalog the young generation and the top powerhouses respectively.
For ranking competition, once in the Kun Ruins Domain, it was a real storm of blood.
Every day, challenges and duels occurred.
However, as time went on.
The rankings stabilized.
Except for a few exceptions, there were no major changes anymore.
"Be careful,” at this moment, Ouyang Xiu shouted.
Up ahead in the maze, a swarm of spiders appeared.
These spiders didn’t spit webs or make nets.
Their fighting method was unique.
That is self-detonation.
Upon encountering people, they would self-destruct, exploding with poison and power simultaneously.
Dual attacks, suddenly leaving no defense.
Many people didn’t react in time and were caught off guard.
This poison was far stronger than the poison outside the legacy.
As long as a single drop touched you, no matter who you were, you were doomed.
Xu Zimei and his group felt it too.
As they advanced further, the toxic creatures they encountered became more and more formidable.
And the poisons they wielded were terrifying.
These poisons, if outside, would surprise and shock many people.
But here in the legacy, they were everywhere.
Seeing the self-detonating poison spiders, Ouyang Xiu made a gesture.
A kasaya appeared in front of him.
The robe worn by Buddhism’s enlightened monks.
He waved a hand, and the kasaya enveloped the surroundings, braving the explosions of the self-detonating poison spiders.
None could harm the two of them at all.
"How about that, pretty good, right?” Ouyang Xiu smiled.
"A defensive Spiritual Artifact, quite good,” Xu Zimei said.
"But it won’t hold forever.”
"I’m just here to see, try my luck.
If I can’t get the legacy, I’ll leave,” Ouyang Xiu laughed.
Xu Zimei looked at the way they had come.
The maze was changing imperceptibly now.
He said, “Do you think you can find your way back?”
Ouyang Xiu’s expression changed.
"Are you saying we’re… we’re lost?”
