Poison God's Heritage

The Blue Sun asked a couple of Heaven Stage cultivators to follow us close and assist us in case of need. They'll act as arbiters and will also be joining the small competition. And in case something like a Noble Appears, they'll be responsible for fending it off.

Our approach to the entire situation was pretty simple, get in, beat the ever-living shit out of every rakshasa on the way, and get everyone to meet at the engine room.

I moved forward, rushing through the corridors of the Bastion while spreading my Divine Sense all over the place. Thanks to the Bastion's energy recovery and the Qi limitation removed I was able to apply My Divine Sense however I wanted. But it was a double-edged sword. The moment my senses began spreading and detecting the remaining Raksahsa, they noticed me too.

The entire Bastion began howling as the remaining Rakshasa began moving. However, there was barely a fraction of the former number due to the massive poison breakout I caused the last time.

The poison had killed almost if not all every white rakshasa in the bastion, as for the Black, Brute, and Silver Rakshasa they were still roaming about and they were the first to notice me.

A brute arrived first, with four of its arms propelling him forward like a mutated gorilla, it charged at me jumping up in the air.

"Grow!" I shouted as I pointed Creeping Demise at the massive brute. The Qi from my body was rapidly absorbed as it fueled the sword, making the tip of the sword change form. Turned to a massive serpent head that shot forward to the brute locking it in its jaws then slamming it into the bastion's floor.

The serpent head immediately spat out a poisonous cloud right into the Brute's chest, making its chest change to a piece of brittle ice, and with a tightening of my grip on the sword's grip, the jaws of the steel serpent immediately snapped shut, breaking the brute in two.

A couple more brutes arrived but they were taken care of by Dao Shen and Old Fu. The latter simply pulled back his sleeve and slammed down with a mighty fist right into the Brute's head, ripping the entire head out of the Brute's body, spine included, and finished off by a roundhouse kick to the torso of the dead body.

The entire torso flew forward like a bullet slamming into other rakshasa in the distance.

Old Fu smiled at me saying, "You're Too Slow kid!" the muscles on his feet simply bulged as he blasted away from his position, spinning like a top while flying at a speed that would make a bullet look like a slug moving on sticky ground.

Dao Shen on the other hand was more acrobatic. The Brute he was facing tried to hug Dao Shen in a bear hug, but the latter flew up in a summersault over the hug. while he was right above the Brute who completely missed Dao Shen he grabbed the Brute's head with both arms and twisted his entire body.

The Dao of Absorption was immediately applied as he sucked the vitality of the brute and tore his head out. He also flashed me a wide smile as he toyed with the brute's head as if it was a tennis ball with one hand. "You'll need to be faster," he said and flew after Dao Shen.

I was actually pumped, and realized one thing, Dao Shen although had a lesser cultivation than I do, has a far better martial art and fighting experience.

Not wanting to lose, I closed my eyes for a second and opened them. Everything changed. my vision became far more enhanced as I was now using the Primordial Serpent God's sight.

The Brutes in the far distance looked slower as they were moving toward us, you can see each and everyone of them rushing and jumping up and down with incredible slowness.

I moved forward, dashing between Dao Shen and Old Fu who were on their third kill each. I flew forward into a slow moving brute and slapped my open palm right into its chest while all four of its arms were closing in on me. My other hand had already pumped energy into creeping demise to change to a whip like form that caught onto another brute.

The palm I used was the Palm of White Plague that applied an incredible dose of life absorbing poison and vitality draining poison. The Brute turned to a husk of its former self in less than a fraction of a second, even before its arms closed up on me, they turned to twigs that shattered the moment I tightened my grip on my sword as it dragged me away from its bear hug and into the next Brute.

I kicked into the other brute using both feet while ripping with as much strength as I had onto the sword that turned to a leaner and sharper line around the neck of the brute.

It tried to remove the wire like sword from its neck but its big fingers were unable to dig through its skin to find the wire.

It struggled to breath as the fine line was easily cutting through its head but I knew I would get overpowered if it tried to jerk itself so I extended the wire a bit and whipped the end in my hand around another brute's arm that was about to rip my head off.

The later brute that got the sword wrapped around his extended fist applied enough pressure to tear away the strangled brute's neck.

And so I continued on, devastating the Brutes using nothing but martial arts, switching from poison skills to Fist of Roaring Ki martial arts.

The Primordial Serpent Sight was nothing short of a cheat ability as it allowed me to see half a second into the future. Making me see and immediately come up with a countermeasure to whatever would happen.

Suddenly the tattoo of the Primordial Serpent God on my arm flared out as the serpent immediately manifested out of the flesh of my body ripping through it without letting any blood and biting right at the air, it snapped its jaws and twisted its neck making a blue spray of blood splash all over me and the rakshasa present.

It was a Silver Rakshasa.

"The Silvers are here!" I said as I backed away, my eyes scanning from left to right in extremely rapid succession. There were ten of them, and they were all hidden in stealth among the masses of Brutes.

Dao Shen slapped both arms together and manifested a wave of soul weakening energy that rippled across every brute and made them shudder. He identified every Rakshasa's position in that move, while Old Fu slammed his right feet, spreading them apart while both arms tucked against his chest.

With a single roar the entire bastion echoed to his scream revealing the enemies hidden or visible by echolocation.

Two Silvers approached me first as they noticed that I was the biggest threat currently for having eliminated a Silver in an instance. Their claws ready to dig at my face. But thanks to their lack of teamwork, I dodged to the right and always kept one rakshas in front of me while the second desperately tried to get to my other side.

Trading blows was not possible, these things have a tough hide and the last time I fought them head on I broke several of my fingers. The Primordial Serpent God is able to kill them while I'm only capable of fending for my life.

I didn't even need to communicate those words to her as she instantly snapped forward toward the closest silver, making it duck, but as if she already expected that she didn't go for the jugular but twisted and grabbed it by the ankle, pulling it out of balance and on its back.

I didn't waste a second as I grabbed Creeping Demise in an overhand grip and slammed it down right through the silver rakshasa's neck.

The second Rakshasa immediately went for me but Old Fu arrived to my side, shoulder bashing it into the nearest wall and stomped the head of the rakshasa that was pinned by the neck.

"That's mine!" I said.

"But I killed it," he snickered.

"Oi, that's KS! KS!" I shouted as I chased another rakshasa.

The fight continued on while the rakshasa were being torn left and right.

And that was just the three of us, as behind us and around us, the heaven stage and the Origin Shattering Stage had already joined the fight, making it a complete slaughter for the Rakshasa.

Not a single cultivator was harmed as they each got each other's back, the heaven stage had taken priority in neutralizing the Silver Raksahsa, each with their own laws and Daos and abilities to notice and discover hidden enemies.

After all, to arrive at that stage and not be able to recognize stealthy enemies would be an impossibility.

The fight went on until the Blue Sun's voice echoed from the other corridor, all I saw was a glance at her jumping high up with a hammer, blue blood sprayed all over her body as she came down swinging on an unfortunate brute turning it to sludge in an instant.

She turned and looked at me flashing a bloodied smile, "If you keep staring, you'll end up losing this bet!" she said and jumped forward to kill some more.

She was right, and I wasn't stopping anytime soon. Now where's my next unfortunate prey?
