Witch Wind

Chapter 391 The Poison of the Heavens (Part 2)

Slap me, then give me a treat.

Xing Tianli was too lazy to do such a thing, but Liu Jing and the others were.

Seeing the birdman's appearance, Liu Jing took out a pot of fragrant old wine and gently shook it in front of the birdman: "Here, do you recognize it? Wine... If you tell the truth, I'll let you have a couple of sips, it won't hurt."

Birdman's eyes widened as he stared intently at the pot of old wine, swallowing hard, his Adam's apple bobbing violently, and gurgling sounds emanating from his chest.

God knows how many years he's been imprisoned here.

They were deprived of sunlight, food, and water, and had no one to keep them company.

"Those damned little bastards..." the birdman suddenly cursed, "I curse them, I curse their entire race to be wiped out... Ah..."

This guy is almost going insane.

Xing Tianli laughed and said, "Come on, confess honestly, and you'll get your reward. I won't beat you so badly... uh, I'll be gentler."

"Hmm, you hate those winged people up there?" Xing Tianli looked at this guy with great confusion.

“My name is Luo Luoqi.” The birdman kept swallowing, his eyes never leaving the wine pot in Liu Jing’s hand. “Well, you came from up there. If you’ve ever dealt with those little bastards, you should know about the so-called ‘Ancestor of Creation,’ right? That’s me.”

Xing Tianli laughed and said, "You've seen them? They came to see you? But they didn't let you go?"

Luo Luoqi suddenly closed his eyes.

He roared to the sky with intense rage, "Sooner or later, I will personally slaughter them all..."

Luo Luoqi, his head still swaying from the violent beatings by Xing Tianli, which had left him with a slight concussion and somewhat unclear thoughts, began to ramble on and on.

He first talked about the Wanfo Leiyin Temple incident from back then.

Indeed, in order to deal with the old monks of the Ten Thousand Buddha Thunder Sound Temple, the winged people, after careful consideration, finally led by the so-called three holy sons, and after expending a great deal of effort, finally found the sinkhole prison where Luo Luoqi was imprisoned.

They risked everything, descending hundreds of millions of miles bit by bit amidst the raging wind blades, until they arrived at this grotto.

At that time, all of Luo Luoqi's power was completely imprisoned by dozens of stone chains. He was completely unable to release any power. Faced with the terrible punishment created by heaven and earth, he could only use his own physical body to forcibly resist it.

Every day, he doesn't know how many thousands of cuts the wind blades will make, or how many kilograms of flesh and feathers will be cut off his body.

Fortunately, he possessed a life-saving treasure bestowed upon him by the clan's supreme leader, granting him near-infinite vitality. No matter how much flesh and feathers he lost, he could regenerate them with a single deep breath.

Liu Jing's eyes lit up: "What a pity. If you were an old hen, wouldn't you be able to grow back your legs and wings indefinitely after we cut them off? Sigh, sigh..."

Xing Tianli turned his hand back and lightly ran his fingers across Liu Jing's lips, making a gesture that said, "Shut up."

Luo Luoqi's face twitched, and his expression turned extremely ugly. He glanced at Liu Jing sideways—this woman, what a vicious heart she had, actually thinking of squeezing his flesh and blood to sell for money... This was too calculating.

Anyway, when the so-called three holy sons found Luo Luoqi, he was almost on the verge of collapse.

His body could still withstand endless torture, but his mind was about to be completely shattered.

An incredibly long period of time.

The physical torture, every cut, felt like it was slashing at his very soul.

He was surrounded by prolonged loneliness, boundless darkness, and deathly silence, experiencing an extreme, endless, and relentless despair. It's remarkable that Rorochi was able to persevere for so many years.

If it weren't for the sliver of hope that his clan's supreme being might discover his dire situation and, amidst their endless busyness, gently extend a tiny feather to rescue him, he would have already collapsed.

The three holy sons have arrived.

They found Roroch.

They used a large amount of blood essence secretly collected from the descendants of Kyushu to awaken Rorochi.

They explained the current situation of the Winged People to Rorochi. They told Rorochi that they inexplicably disliked the monks of the Ten Thousand Buddha Thunder Sound Temple. They did not want to take care of the weak immigrants from Kyushu like nannies. They wanted to kill all the monks and turn the tables and become the masters!

They secretly tasted the flesh and soul of the descendants of Kyushu, and they discovered that the flesh and soul of the descendants of Kyushu contained an extremely rich 'Dao'... This Dao is magnificent and profound, ancient and far-reaching, and it is of great benefit to their cultivation and their evolution!
Cultivation, naturally, refers to the practice of evil and heretical techniques.

Evolution is the evolution of their own bloodline—for example, from one pair of wings to two pairs of wings.

The winged race possesses a terrifying genetic constraint within their bloodline. Those with lower-level bloodlines can never glimpse the wonders of another dimension. For instance, a winged being with wings can at most cultivate to the level of a half-saint; reaching the mid or late stages of half-sainthood is impossible.

Only by breaking through both pairs of wings can they have the possibility of becoming saints.

Winged beings with three pairs of wings—they are definitely capable of becoming saints, even if they just laze around and wait to die, as long as they live long enough.

Luo Luoqi devoured the essence blood of the Nine Provinces descendants sent by the three Holy Sons. They secretly spent nearly ten years killing 100,000 Nine Provinces immigrants, extracting their essence blood and souls, and disguising it as natural deaths.

Lorochi tasted the sweetness and felt the benefits.

These three holy sons were indeed Luo Luoqi's direct bloodline. Therefore, Luo Luoqi spared no effort to expend his life essence and endure the backlash from the surrounding stone chain restrictions, mobilizing all his power to condense a 'Jade Feather Poison'!
And so, that's what happened next.

Luo Luoqi is a 'mayfly,' and even the weakest mayfly possesses strength far exceeding that of an ordinary saint. The natal poison he condensed by sacrificing his life essence and causing his magical cultivation to drop by almost a major level could potentially kill not only the two old monks of the Great Luo Realm at the Ten Thousand Buddha Thunder Sound Temple, but even a true saint!

Thus, the Wanfo Leiyin Temple was destroyed.

And so, this land was completely transformed...

As for Luo Luoqi, poor Luo Luoqi, he was abandoned by those three holy sons—the three holy sons, the moment they got the 'Emerald Feather Poison,' they just packed their bags and left, not to mention releasing Luo Luoqi, they didn't even have the intention of trying.

“Ah, they don’t want anyone to ride on their heads. They only want to be the supreme king. They want to monopolize all the benefits of this world.” Rorochi said quietly, “As expected of my direct descendants, as expected of the bloodline of my clan, truly remarkable.”

Xing Tianli looked at Luo Luoqi as if he were an idiot.

When this guy talked about those three so-called holy sons who had abandoned him, he actually had an attitude of 'having a successor'?

Has this guy gone mad?
Luo Luoqi laughed and said, "Of course, I can't blame them for ignoring me... Actually, I also had my own selfish reasons. The essence blood they gave me restored a lot of my vitality. I could have created more of their natal Emerald Feather Poison for them, so they could have won more easily, and they wouldn't even have needed to fight themselves to win."

"However, I kept ninety percent of the Emerald Feather Poison I condensed." Luo Luoqi laughed, his laughter bordering on hysterical. He shifted his body, revealing a stone chain running through his upper body under his armpit.

The bluish-gray stone chain, originally as thick as a fist, had its links corroded by some terrifying force, leaving behind broken and uneven marks on the clear Heavenly Dao patterns.

Strands of dark green energy clung to the uneven gaps, while within the stone chains, the light of the Great Dao surged continuously, attempting to repair the gaps.

The dark green aura corroded the stone chains, causing them to hiss and emit black smoke, stubbornly preventing them from repairing themselves. "Look, how powerful is my natal Emerald Feather Poison?" Luo Luoqi laughed maniacally at Xing Tianli: "This world fought desperately, and after I ambushed and killed the Creation Saint that it had conceived, it spared no effort to exhaust the world's origin to imprison the shackles of heaven and earth that imprisoned me. Hehe, they were ruined like this by my natal Emerald Feather Poison."

Xing Tianli nodded slowly.

No wonder there was green poisonous fog blocking the way when we came down earlier. Later on, the poisonous fog even condensed into a liquid substance. It turns out that the shackles of heaven and earth had a flaw. This thing kept spewing poisonous gas, which eventually turned into a highly poisonous barrier to block the fierce wind blades that kept coming from the sky!

"You killed the sage who created this world?" Xing Tianli raised an eyebrow.

Luo Luoqi is very honest.

Perhaps he was beaten up by Xing Tianli and became somewhat hysterical and self-destructive, or perhaps he simply became mentally ill and had some inexplicable urge to self-destruct.

He nodded very 'honestly' and said, "Yes, this is what my clan is best at."

He chuckled and recounted what had happened.

In his clan, Rorochi was merely an insignificant 'child'.

By the standards of the heavens, he was merely a weak 'mayfly,' while the supreme being of their race was an extremely terrifying predator that could roam freely even among a herd of beasts!
Their tribe calls itself "Feathered Poison," and there are five tribes within the tribe: gold, silver, emerald, white, and black.

Among the five races, there is a supreme imperial bloodline, and Luo Luoqi is an imperial bloodline descendant of the Cuiyu lineage.

However, Luo Luoqi's status in the Emerald Feather lineage is not very high because he is of mixed blood—his father is a pure Emerald Feather imperial family member, while his mother is a mixed-blood, a beauty who married into the Golden Feather clan specifically for political alliances.

His mother was not only of mixed blood, but also of both the Golden Feather and Silver Feather imperial clans. Therefore, Luo Luoqi had blood from three different clans. In the Feathered Poison Clan, which places great importance on bloodline, mixed-blood descendants generally receive a lower level of treatment.

In other words, although Rorochi is of imperial blood, he enjoys the treatment of royalty.

So, at a young age, thanks to the accumulation of resources, he had just become the weakest mayfly when he was selected by the clan's higher-ups to participate in the clan's 'Journey of Destiny'.

The 'Journey of Destiny' sounds profound, but in reality, it's just drifting through the chaotic void, going wherever the wind takes you. If you encounter a world with enough potential, you secretly sneak into that world and use a secret treasure crafted by a supreme being to implant the genetic code of the Feathered Poison Clan into the 'genes of heaven and earth' of that world.

This is an extremely disgusting act.

In a normal world, it would be impossible for the Feathered Poison Clan to exist... But after the Feathered Poison Clan secretly implanted their own genetic code, it was like a wicked bird secretly laying a bunch of its own eggs in the nests of other birds!
Other birds painstakingly raised their chicks for this wicked bird, and the chicks of this wicked bird were also extremely wicked—they would push all the chicks of other birds out of their nests when they were not in the nest, causing them to fall to their deaths from great heights.

Rorochi's "Journey of Destiny" was undertaken with such a mission.

He had been wandering in the void for many years. This world was the first world he had found that was just beginning to emerge—a world that was about to sprout but had not yet sprouted, making it the perfect target for the Feathered Poison Clan.

The inexperienced Luo Luoqi excitedly rushed forward, boldly barging into the primordial membrane of this world.

Within that primordial embryo, less than a million miles in diameter, he encountered the true sage destined to be born in this world—a gigantic spirit ape with four arms and a body length of ten thousand miles.

Luo Luoqi took out a secret treasure crafted by his clan's supreme being, took a drop of his own essence blood, and secretly integrated it into the primordial embryo of this world. Then, he used a long needle infused with the deadly poison of his own natal Emerald Feather Poison to pierce the brow of the innate saint who hadn't even opened his eyes yet.

In the experience of the Feathered Poison Clan, most innate saints, with unstable physical bodies and fragile holy souls, would die instantly if pierced between the eyebrows by a poison needle containing their own natal poison.

Even if they don't die on the spot, their strength will be weakened by at least 99%, leaving them at the mercy of these little mayflies—of course, after slaughtering them, they will feast on them and devour them on the spot.

The flesh and soul of a primordial being that has not yet created the world are absolutely a great tonic. They might even be able to directly elevate the cultivation level of these little mayflies of the Feathered Poison Clan by a whole level!
An accident happened.

"Heaven knows, the innate beings born in this world, that four-armed dead monkey, he...he...he...besides having a head of bronze and arms of iron, and bones of steel, with an extremely strong physical body, he actually has a hidden innate divine power—immunity to all poisons!"

Luo Luoqi raised his head in despair, two lines of pale blue tears slowly falling from the corners of his eyes.

"That damned monkey, he's immune to all poisons! This has caused me so much trouble!" Luo Luoqi cried. "My poison needle pierced his brow. This sage who opened the heavens thousands of miles high has such a massive body. My poison needle did him less than a fart."

Xing Tianli looked at this fellow with pity.

He had a general idea of ​​the Feathered Poison Clan's dirty tricks. He could only look at this guy with pity—what a jinx! The first time he had ever done something so disgusting, he had run into his natural enemy!
"The origin of this world is not as weak as I appear from the outside... At least, after that dead monkey was awakened, and with the suppression of the Heavenly Dao, I was no match for it at all, I was completely outmatched!"

Luo Luoqi cried out, "I was almost shattered! How can there be such a sturdy monster in the world? How could I encounter such a monster on my first attempt at 'divine intervention'?"

After crying and shouting for a while, Luo Luoqi said with tears in his eyes, "Fortunately, I have a life-saving feather talisman that my mother gave me before I left... Speaking of which, perhaps only this woman in the clan still has some real feelings for me... That feather talisman is a thin feather that fell off the Supreme Being and was made from a 'young beast' in my mother's clan."

"I only have one, and I can't bear to use it. If I weren't about to be beaten to death, I wouldn't have used it at all."

Luo Luoqi gritted his teeth and said viciously, "I took out the Feather Talisman and activated it... Logically speaking, this world, along with that damned monkey, should have been destroyed instantly. All their essence would have been drained, refined, and transformed into a natal Feather Poison power that would merge into my body and greatly enhance my cultivation."

"But, I never expected this!" Luo Luoqi screamed and cursed wildly, "My own sisters, my own brothers, they held a banquet for me to drink before they left... I got drunk, and they actually switched the feather talisman!"

Luo Luoqi was trembling with rage. His spine, which had been nearly shattered by Xing Tianli's punch, kept cracking. Xing Tianli was afraid that if he trembled a few more times, he would really be cut in two.

Luo Luoqi laughed so hard he bent over, tears streaming down his face: "Those damned beasts, they secretly swapped my feather talisman... the only life-saving feather talisman my mother gave me... ha, some junk they scavenged from who-knows-where. That attack only severely injured that damned monkey, severely damaged the Heavenly Dao of this world..."

"I took the opportunity to almost kill the monkey. After all, although I am weak, I am still a qualified mayfly! I can barely deal with a primordial saint who has not yet been truly born."

"But that monkey would rather self-destruct! Self-destruct! A primordial saint with limitless potential, actually self-destructed!"

Luo Luoqi, enraged, swore out an extremely vulgar curse: "He actually...self-destructed."

"And then, as you've seen..."

"The Heavenly Dao of this world, taking advantage of my severe injuries, did not hesitate to perish together with me, consuming its own essence to imprison me in this hellish place. Ha, it can only imprison me and give me some minor suffering, but it can never kill me!"

"Not only that, He expended so much of His essence to imprison me in this godforsaken place. His losses were too great, causing the primordial embryo of this world, when it was finally created, hehe, without the sage who created the heavens, and with its own essence so depleted, isn't this world particularly—tiny?"

Xing Tianli let out a breath.

No wonder Xing Tianli was astonished when he first saw this world. This world, capable of giving birth to a monstrous winged human race, and also a primordial spirit ape that feeds on winged humans and spends its days hunting them for amusement... With such powerful nurturing abilities, the quality of this world's origin must be extremely high.

However, this world only has a single continent in the center with a diameter of trillions of miles, surrounded by thousands of suns and hundreds of thousands of planets... This is very strange.

My feelings have been ruined by this Luo Luoqi.

"Do I need to say more about what happened next?" Luo Luoqi looked at Xing Tianli very seriously: "That's how it is. When the world was created, the innate spirit ape came into being. However, I implanted a wisp of my essence blood into this world with a secret treasure. Therefore, this world was also forced to give birth to my bloodline."

"Hey, all the Feathered Poison Clan members in this world are my descendants!"

Luo Luoqi laughed until tears streamed down his face: "Isn't my clan's supernatural power amazing? I haven't even gotten married yet, and I already have so many descendants!"

Xing Tianli slapped Luo Luoqi across the face. The Tongtian Yuling Banner flashed with a ghostly light, and seventy-two of the most powerful Yakshas rolled out from within the banner. Their bodies compressed to about a foot tall, and they opened their huge mouths to bite down on Luo Luoqi.
