Fantasy: Immortality Begins with Absorbing Demons

Chapter 552 New Policies (Part 5)

"Need not!"

Before he could finish speaking, Han Yi's vision blurred.

He leaped out, moving so fast that he could only see a blurry silhouette.

This speed...

It's probably much faster than Han Yi's usual form.

Han Yi estimated that even if he unleashed his full power, this would be the best he could achieve.

He was immediately alarmed. Although he didn't know what realm ** was at now, judging from this speed, his realm was definitely not low.

Han Yi suspected that ** might have already entered the Inscription Stage, otherwise, such a performance would be impossible. Once a martial artist reaches a certain level, they can lock their blood and preserve their essence, becoming highly sensitive to internal energy; without actual combat, it's very difficult to discern their true strength or weakness.

Even the panel only provides special ability bonuses for demons and monsters.

Outside the manor, vast expanses of golden straw swayed like waves.

Looking around, all you could see were straws as tall as a person; you couldn't see anything else.

"go!"

A person dressed in light clothing and wearing a mask moved swiftly and lightly through the rice paddies.

However, he paused and suddenly stopped.

"The prime of youth has come to an end, and the last flowers have faded. Who would have thought that the renowned Young Master Yue Qi would willingly degenerate and become a rich young master?"

Dressed in white, with a handsome face and a calm expression, he said, "I will decide my own path." "You decide your own path?" the masked man sneered. "In our line of work, once you enter the gate, your life and death are not in your own hands. Yue Qi, come back with me. I promise I won't implicate your family."

"Are you threatening me?!" ** narrowed her eyes slightly.

"This isn't a threat, just stating the facts," the masked man chuckled. "Don't you know the sect leader's methods? Once they find out about you, your fate..."

“Simple…” She took a small step forward. “As long as you can’t go back, then none of this has happened…”

"You...?!" The masked man was both shocked and furious.

Bang!

The two men waved their hands simultaneously, and large plumes of white powder shot out and collided with each other.

Tsk tsk tsk! ! !

A sound like toxic substances corroding and dissolving each other rang out. *Puff puff puff!*

A continuous stream of red, green, and blue powder emanated from the two of them.

The scene was magnificent, like a colorful firework display at night. However, beneath this beauty lurked a deadly danger.

Within a ten-meter radius of the two, all life, whether it be tenacious plants or small animals like birds, had died out.

Unfortunately, the two remain evenly matched.

This is equivalent to having the same master who taught them both, so they can't counter each other's moves.

"Hmph, the famous Yue Qi is nothing special..." The masked man chuckled, then suddenly took out a dark object and slammed it to the ground.

Bang!

Several plumes of black smoke exploded one after another.

The masked man vanished into the smoke in a flash, only to reappear in the distance a moment later, rapidly flying away.

This is, after all, **'s territory. There's no need for him to fight to the death here. He just needs to go back and report the situation, and plenty of experts will come to take care of it.

Just when I was thinking about this.

A large hand suddenly pierced through the smoke and swiftly reached for his head.

The masked man's pupils contracted, his figure flashed, and in the blink of an eye, he reappeared in another patch of smoke.

This smoke seems to have some special effect, allowing it to jump around easily and freely.

"Huh..." Han Yi grabbed at empty air and let out a soft "Huh..."

However, the masked man was delayed in this way.

They had already blocked his way.

"The Annihilation Demon Art..." Looking at the black mist before him, a hint of melancholy seemed to linger in his eyes. "Do you know why I left..."

"What...?" The masked man's mind raced, and he was just about to stall for time.

Swish!

A white light flashed before his eyes, like a rainbow piercing the sun.

puff!

A lotus-shaped wound suddenly burst open in the masked man's chest.

"Wow, so fast..."

Bright red blood slowly dripped from the masked man's mouth, and the defensive force he had just prepared on his arms suddenly dissipated.

"You're too slow..." The voice slowly rang in his ears, "Because I've discovered that only the martial arts I created myself... are the strongest!"

The masked man vomited a mouthful of blood and closed his eyes in resentment.

"He has accomplices..." Han Yi looked into the distance: "They're right ahead!"

"Chase them!" he ordered decisively. "Leave no one alive!"

Han Yi glanced sideways. This was the first time he had ever seen someone so ruthless and merciless, ready to kill at the slightest provocation.

His appearance was completely different from that of a refined and gentlemanly young man.

"Okay." Han Yi nodded without hesitation.

Bang!

Two figures shot forward like cannonballs, and under the intense recoil pressure, the surrounding straw collapsed radially, forming two oval pits.

Not far away, another masked man was rushing forward and swaying from side to side in the field, fleeing frantically.

Swish!

A chilling force appeared suddenly in mid-air, as if teleporting.

Without hesitation, the masked man activated his secret technique and leaped dozens of meters away in an instant.

However, before he could fully discern the direction...

Bang!

A massive, icy force exploded beneath his feet, completely sealing off the space around him and instantly slowing him down.

The masked man felt a strong gust of wind behind him and clapped his hands.

at once.

A colorful, sparkling light curtain, shimmering in the sunlight, enveloped him, instantly surrounding him.

Snapped!

However, a large hand ripped through the poisonous barrier and gripped his neck tightly.

"How...how is this possible..." The masked man's eyes were filled with disbelief.

This Five Spirit Powder is made by him by collecting the essence of five extremely yin and poisonous substances from all over the world.

This is an extremely potent poison that even their sect leader praises highly!

"Not bad... Popping candy flavor..."

Han Yi looked completely relaxed, his eyes shining as he breathed in the surrounding poisonous fog.

Crispy and numbing, sweet and sour.

He continuously inhaled wisps of poisonous mist, which then bounced and exploded in his mouth.

"what?!"

The masked man stared blankly, hardly believing what he was seeing.

Damn it...

Are they even human...?

"Any more? Any more? Give me some more." Han Yi pinched his neck and shook him hard, like he was rocking a rocking toy.

"It seems you're gone..." Han Yi said regretfully.

He suddenly let go of his hand...

"Wait, I am from the Holy Gate Mingyu Sect..." the masked man said anxiously, not even bothering to catch his breath.

Click...

But then, Han Yi clenched his fist again, simply to change his posture and exert force more effectively.

"Unfortunately, you've spoken too late..." Han Yi said with a regretful expression, loosening his grip.

Pfft!

The body lay limply on the ground, convulsing continuously.

"solved?"

** also rushed over quickly, looking at the scene before him. "Hmm." Han Yi nodded, but his gaze remained fixed on **.

"Go back and talk."

He naturally understood what he meant and gave a wry smile.

The two quickly disposed of the body and returned to the manor.

"..."

The two sat facing each other at a square table.

After a moment of silence, he finally spoke with a wry smile.

"Did you have any doubts before about my poison research, the martial arts I've learned, and the sources of my poisons?"

“Yes.” Han Yi nodded. “But everyone has their own secrets, and I believe you.”

He had previously inquired about the Hu family's bloodline, which was the so-called "spirit fox bloodline".

Of course, by this generation, the bloodline concentration had long since dropped to almost the same level as that of ordinary people.

Therefore, even though the Hu family is a so-called bloodline family, its members mainly focus on martial arts training.

However, there has never been any record of the Hu family having a tradition of making poisons.

Without a lineage, it means that future generations will find it difficult to find a path out of thin air.

He is indeed exceptionally intelligent and could be considered a genius, but the numerous poisons and toxins he provided to Han Yi clearly demonstrate a complete lineage that allows for continuous updates and iterations.

This cannot be explained away with a simple "smart".

The reason it's called inheritance is because it's accumulated and gradually developed by generations. The occasional appearance of a brilliant and talented person cannot change anything.

So, from that time on, Han Yi actually had some doubts.

Not to mention, his relationship with ** became increasingly close. Judging from the underworld and shady channels provided by **, there is definitely another force behind **.

"Actually, it's nothing..." he sighed. "It was just youthful arrogance that led me astray."

He looked up at Han Yi: "When I was traveling in Yunzhou before, I joined a faction called Mingyu Sect."

I learned a lot from it. However, I discovered that the sect's founding purpose was impure. When I tried to escape, I was relentlessly pursued and killed. Left with no other choice, I returned to my hometown and went into hiding under an assumed name.

"Mingyu Sect?" Han Yi pondered for a moment. "I don't know, I've never heard of it."

He said in a deep voice, "Mingyu Sect is an assassin organization within the underworld of Yunzhou. Its operating mechanism is similar to an employment relationship, where the employer pays money to hire assassins."

I originally intended to join, to assassinate corrupt officials and notorious bandits in Yunzhou, to do righteous deeds, and to restore order to Yunzhou. But after actually joining, I discovered that the assassination was merely a facade for the Mingyu Sect. Before I could investigate further, I was discovered and had no choice but to leave.

"Another purpose?" Han Yi paused. "Any leads?"

"I have no clue. All I've found is that this Mingyu Sect seems to be an outer force of a sect called the Three Saints Sect. As for anything else, I've discovered nothing." **He shook his head helplessly.

"Although there is no leader, the various poisons I learned and the demonic arts I practiced all originated from here. It's just an outer force, yet it has this kind of strength. I can only deduce that the Three Saints Sect... is terrifyingly powerful!"

"The Three Saints Sect..."

Han Yi immediately fell silent.

This wasn't the first time he'd heard this name!
