Starting as a supporting character in Doupo

Page 277

At this point, Fan Cheng's face gradually became excited.

Upon hearing this, Xiao Fan's first thought was that the toxins they had been inflicted were probably created by this so-called sect leader, just to experiment with the toxins on human lives? Wasn't this the same as the Wanxie Sect's attempt to sacrifice the city?

Little Fairy Doctor wasn't such a ruthless person. In Xiao Fan's memory, Little Fairy Doctor was still the kind-hearted healer who helped other mercenaries in Qingshan Town. Thinking of this, Xiao Fan looked at Fan Cheng with a puzzled expression. Let's wait until he finishes speaking before we talk about it.

"The sect leader came to our aid because he was misled by that traitor. Little did he know that it was all a trap set by the other side against him."

As Fan Cheng spoke, his tone grew increasingly agitated, and his face became filled with rage.

"None of us are their true target. Their goal from beginning to end has always been the sect leader. Even the toxins in our bodies were part of their calculations."

Fan Cheng said, "After the sect leader arrived, he also discovered that this was all a trap set by the other party and understood what the traitor had done. But by then it was too late. The other party had already set up a tight formation around us, and we had no way to break through. Moreover, the strength of the other party's leader was quite strong even among the Dou Zong. Even the sect leader was no match for him."

"However, the other side was worried about the mysterious toxin on the sect leader's body, so they were always wary and did not take any forceful measures."

"But although they dared not make a move, and we could not break through, the sect leader guarded us and, despite our obstruction, absorbed all the toxins from our bodies."

At this point, Fan Cheng showed a hint of shame on his face, and the Poison Sect disciples behind him also looked very unpleasant.

Hearing this, Xiao Fan gradually became certain. It seemed that this was indeed Little Fairy Doctor. After all, Little Fairy Doctor possessed the Calamity Poison Body. No matter what kind of poison it was, it could not only not harm Little Fairy Doctor, but could also enhance her strength. Perhaps it was because she thought of this that Little Fairy Doctor took the initiative to offer to absorb the poison from Fan Cheng and the others.

Xiao Fan's gaze swept over Fan Cheng and the others. Seeing their expressions, he nodded to himself. At least for now, it seemed that the loyalty of these Poison Sect disciples to Little Fairy Doctor was beyond question.

"The sect leader has been inside the formation, absorbing the toxins from our bodies. Meanwhile, the enemy has never stopped attacking us. Although they are wary of the sect leader, many of our brothers have still died at their hands. We have been besieged for nearly half a month until yesterday. The sect leader and several other elders secretly discussed how to stop the enemy's experts, break through the formation, and send us out."

"yesterday!"

Upon hearing Fan Cheng's words, Xiao Fan's relaxed expression vanished. He wasn't worried that the other party would kill Little Fairy Doctor.

Since the other party is wary of Little Fairy Doctor's poison, the battle between the two will probably not end so quickly. What Xiao Fan is worried about is that if Little Fairy Doctor continues to fight at this intensity, the poison in her Calamity Poison Body will probably erupt completely. Once the poison in her body erupts completely, it will be too late!

Thinking of this, Xiao Fan didn't dare to hesitate any longer and quickly asked Fan Cheng, "Where is your sect leader trapped?"

"Huh?" Upon hearing Xiao Fan's words, Fan Cheng hurriedly pointed in a direction and said, "Over there, go straight east from there, there's a valley, and the enemy's ambush position is inside that valley."

After Fan Cheng finished speaking, Xiao Fan didn't say anything more. He tossed Fan Cheng a bottle of pills, then pulled Yun Yun and rushed in the direction Fan Cheng had indicated, leaving only a faint sentence behind.

"This medicine is enough to heal your injuries. There is no one else around. You should heal here first, and then hurry back to Dinggu City to hide."

Fan Cheng caught the pill Xiao Fan tossed to him, opened the bottle, and smelled the fragrance emanating from it. A look of surprise appeared on his face: "A fourth-grade pill!"

Fan Cheng then looked in the direction Xiao Fan and the other person had left, muttering to himself, "Sect Master, you must hold on..."

Fan Cheng wasn't stupid. From Xiao Fan's constant inquiries about the sect leader, he could guess that this never-before-seen Dou Zong expert was probably here to help the sect leader.

.......

Xiao Fan flew in the direction Fan Cheng pointed, carrying Yun Yun. Looking at the scene rushing backward beneath his feet, a sense of worry rose in Xiao Fan's heart.

Yun Yun, who was being led by Xiao Fan, knew that this was not the time to be petty. Although she felt a little upset, she did not say anything.

Soon, Xiao Fan saw the valley that Fan Cheng had mentioned. The valley was now devastated, with traces of a great battle everywhere.

Looking at the completely changed landscape around him, Xiao Fan felt a sense of unease.

The valley was once a plain, but now it was riddled with huge pits and wisps of poisonous gas were rising from it, making it look like a living hell.

Xiao Fan surveyed his surroundings but found no signs of a battle. He then released his soul power, carefully sensing everything around him. Soon, Xiao Fan's gaze fell upon a hidden spot within the valley, and he sneered, "Hmph, found it!"

Chapter 72 The Phenomenon of the Earth

As Xiao Fan turned his gaze there, he quickly flew over as well.

Soon, Xiao Fan landed in front of a small hill in the valley. Looking at the hill under his feet, a hint of mockery flashed in Xiao Fan's eyes. Then, he made a fist with his right hand and gathered his fighting spirit on his right fist.

As Xiao Fan moved, an enlarged fist appeared out of thin air in the void behind him, containing immense power.

"Destroy this mere artificial hill!"

Xiao Fan coldly stared at the small hill at his feet, let out a cold shout, and then punched down with his right fist. The fist in the void behind him also fell down and smashed into the artificial hill.

"boom!"

The enormous fist slammed into the artificial hill, and a faint layer of runes appeared. However, under Xiao Fan's fist imprint, the runes were as fragile as paper and were easily shattered by him.

As the rune markings collapsed, the artificial mountain could no longer withstand Xiao Fan's force and began to crumble from the top down.

"How dare you! Who is it that dares to be so insolent on my territory!"

Just as the fist imprints were continuously shattering the artificial mountain, a powerful shout rang out, and then a light blue battle aura emanated from within the artificial mountain, blocking all of Xiao Fan's fist imprints.

Xiao Fan's expression remained unchanged in the face of this sudden appearance of a powerful figure. This was all within his expectations. After all, for those black-robed men to dare to say such things, their so-called "masters" must at least be Dou Zong level to dare to bargain with Xiao Fan.

As the fist imprint dissipated, a robust figure flew out from within the remaining half of the artificial mountain, standing in mid-air opposite Xiao Fan.

Through the now-vanished top of the artificial hill, one can still see a vast, open space beneath it. However, it's currently obscured, and only a faint outline of dense vegetation can be discerned within this immense underground area...

Noticing Xiao Fan's gaze as he looked down into the ground, the man, who appeared to be around thirty, subtly blocked Xiao Fan's view. His gaze swept over Yun Yun, and upon discovering that she was merely a Dou Huang, he felt relieved.

"Who are you, and why have you destroyed my cultivation grounds?"

Upon hearing the question, Xiao Fan turned his gaze to the man. The man appeared to be around thirty years old, dressed in a light blue flowing robe, with his jet-black hair tied back. He had a robust physique, and his body radiated a crystalline glow, clearly indicating that his body had been tempered by numerous rare and precious materials.

"No need for further words. The Poison Sect Master is with you. Hand her over, and I'll leave. Or rather, you die, and I'll take her with me!"

Xiao Fan didn't know the current situation of the battle, but since the other party was able to free up his hands to stop him, Xiao Yi Xian was probably not in good condition. As for Xiao Yi Xian dying at the hands of the other party, Xiao Fan didn't think that was possible.

After all, Little Fairy Doctor possesses the Calamity Poison Body. When faced with a life-or-death situation, not only this valley, but the entire surrounding area would likely be transformed into a poisonous domain, devoid of any life.

Upon hearing Xiao Fan's words, the young man's face showed a humiliated expression. He then sized up Xiao Fan and laughed angrily, "Hahaha, good. It's been a long time since anyone dared to speak to me like this. Today, I, Bingcang, will see what makes a kid like you, who has just entered the Dou Zong realm, so arrogant."

As soon as he finished speaking, Bingcang's eyes turned cold, and his pale blue battle aura surged out. He pointed in Xiao Fan's direction, and dozens of pale blue water arrows shot towards Xiao Fan's position.

shhhhhh!

Xiao Fan's expression remained unchanged despite noticing Bing Cang's attack.

Although his opponent was a water-type cultivator, generally speaking, he would have an advantage against a fire-type cultivator, since water-type cultivators have powerful battle qi that counters fire-type, making battles extremely easy. Unfortunately, he encountered Xiao Fan, who was cheating.

boom!

The strange fire roared out from Xiao Fan's right palm, transforming into a ferocious black fire dragon in front of him, and then roared towards Bing Cang's location.

"Strange Fire!?" Bingcang felt the power of Xiao Fan's flames and his eyes showed a look of shock. He never expected that this young man, who looked to be only in his early twenties, would possess such a rare and wonderful thing as a strange fire.

But why have I never heard of this pitch-black flame before?

Bingcang had doubts, but he dared not hesitate for a moment. He pushed himself up with both hands, and a bright blue shield appeared in front of him.

"Azure Shield!"

boom!

Chi~chi~

The ferocious fire dragon formed by the chaotic fire crashed into the shield in front of Bing Cang. Although the chaotic fire was powerful, Bing Cang's strength had already reached the peak of the three-star Dou Zong, while Xiao Fan was only a one-star Dou Zong. There was still a gap between them, so the chaotic fire did not break through Bing Cang's attack. However, as the chaotic fire continued to erode, the azure shield in front of Bing Cang was soon reduced to a thin layer.

However, Bingcang did not sit idly by and wait for death; he merely used the Azure Shield to briefly block Xiao Fan's attack.

Taking advantage of the moment the fire dragon was blocked, Bingcang retreated rapidly, moving away from Xiao Fan's direction. Just as he was about to make a move, an unnatural gray color appeared on his face. Then, he covered his chest with his right hand and frowned slightly: "Damn it, at this time!"

"Ang~"

Seeing this, Xiao Fan naturally wouldn't let such a good opportunity pass by. He manipulated the fire dragon to circle once in mid-air before shooting towards Bing Cang's location.

hum!

The fire dragon, carrying an aura of annihilation, surged ferociously towards Bingcang. Sensing Xiao Fan's killing intent, Bingcang glared at Xiao Fan hatefully, then glanced unwillingly into the cave, clutched his chest, and fled from the spot.

Seeing Bingcang leave, Xiao Fan showed no joy. From their brief exchange, Xiao Fan had already sensed that Bingcang was seriously injured. That was why he had acted so forcefully, to make Bingcang feel Xiao Fan's determination and thus subdue him without a fight.

After all, Xiao Fan's purpose in coming here was not to kill Bing Cang, but to find Xiao Yi Xian. Xiao Fan did not know to what extent Xiao Yi Xian's Calamity Poison Body had been unsealed, so he did not have time to waste at the moment.

Swish!

Yun Yun landed beside Xiao Fan, watching Bing Cang disappear into the horizon, and said softly, "He's gone for good."

"Okay, let's go down and take a look."

Xiao Fan nodded, then looked at the half-destroyed artificial mountain and went down into the ground through the collapsed opening.

Upon entering the underground, Xiao Fan sensed the dense toxins permeating the area and also detected traces of an array beneath the artificial mountain. Its sole purpose was to conceal the aura below and seal off all the toxins in the air within the underground.

Chapter 73 erupts!?

The toxins permeating the air here are extremely terrifying. According to Xiao Fan's deduction, even a Dou Ling would likely become infected with these toxins if he stayed in this area for a long time without any protection.

Xiao Fan was very curious about what Bing Cang was doing by creating such a place with such a high concentration of poisonous gas.

“Pull me up.”

Xiao Fan turned his head and spoke to Yun Yun. Immediately, the Chaos Fire spread out and traveled along Xiao Fan's palm to Yun Yun's body, forming a thin film of flame that kept out all the toxins in the air.

Although Yun Yun's strength had reached the peak of Dou Huang, and the toxins in the air had no effect on her at all, Xiao Fan still wanted to help her avoid the toxins' corrosive effects.

Following the underground space forward, Xiao Fan and his companions soon witnessed an astonishing scene.

In the underground space ahead, countless plants were densely planted. The plants had no leaves, only fruits of different colors gathered at the tips of the plants.

"This is... a leafless fruit?"

Looking at the somewhat strange plant below, Yun Yun, who was standing next to Xiao Fan, asked curiously. After all, when she was talking with Zhan Tailing earlier, Zhan Tailing had just introduced the leafless fruit. Xiao Fan had also shown Yun Yun the actual plant at that time, so Yun Yun had a deep impression of it. When she saw it now, she naturally recognized it immediately.

Upon hearing Yun Yun's words, Xiao Fan's expression turned serious, and he explained, "No! This is not a simple leafless fruit."

Xiao Fan looked at the various colored leafless fruits at the top of the plant, waved his hand, and a burst of fighting spirit directly tore apart the ground where the leafless fruits were.
