Rise to God with Life Skill Professions-Chapter 516 - 505: Sea of Flowers, Cave, Monster

Qin An looked at the Treasure Bead in front of him, a trace of confusion in his eyes.

He followed Wu Yunfeng’s hand, holding the Treasure Bead, and after a careful examination and using Void Essence to communicate, the confusion was replaced by astonishment.

"This is a method of forbidden medical techniques within the medical path, Lord Wu, you’ve sealed so many medical arts inside. If it falls into anyone’s hands, it would be the ultimate treasure of the medical path."

The Treasure Bead concealed over ten thousand medical arts, capable of treating various ailments.

It even included methods to dispel poison.

And this Treasure Bead itself was a supreme treasure, able to hold so many medical arts.

Qin An knew that if it fell into the outside world and was acquired by someone else, it could be used as a family heirloom.

These over ten thousand medical arts were Wu Yunfeng’s painstaking effort.

This could not have been sealed in a day or two.

If Qin An wanted to use it, it would be very simple; he just needed to use his medical expertise to drive the Treasure Bead.

Wu Yunfeng nodded and said, "Exactly, this is something I’ve been doing all along. Ever since I wanted to go to Ten Thousand Poison Cloud Peak, I haven’t stopped, sealing a part of medical arts into it daily, accumulating to this point, which is why I am seeking your help."

"If this Treasure Bead is driven by an outsider, the effect is minimal, but if driven by an insider, the effect is much greater."

"After all, only a healer knows which medical technique responds to which poison."

"So, what are you planning to do next, Lord Wu?" Qin An asked.

This Treasure Bead had been given to him, so what was Wu Yunfeng planning to do?

He was very curious to know.

Wu Yunfeng paused slightly, then looked at the sprawling sea of flowers and said, "Each subsequent stage will be like this. I will personally go to the flower sea, expose myself to poison, and then you will use the Treasure Bead to detoxify me."

"If you were to enter the flower sea, it’s likely you wouldn’t withstand the toxins, but my Poison Skill will resist it well."

Qin An slightly narrowed his eyes, "Lord Wu, you’re entrusting your life to me. Are you that confident?"

If it were him, he absolutely wouldn’t entrust his back so confidently to someone else in this situation.

After all, if the other had any malicious intent and didn’t activate the Treasure Bead, even with Wu Yunfeng’s Poison Skill, he would fall into a trap.

Wu Yunfeng smiled, "Choosing you is firstly because I trust you. During this time, I have learned in detail from Li Moyun about your journey from Ding County, where you’ve been fierce with much bloodshed, yet you’re a man of principles."

"You never unjustly kill the innocent and have a good relationship with the common people, showing you’re a just person who doesn’t commit evil. If such a person holding the Treasure Bead still intends to harm me, then so be it, even if I misjudged you."

"Moreover, if you were really like that and I died at Ten Thousand Poison Cloud Peak, it wouldn’t be easy for you to get out either."

Qin An, hearing Wu Yunfeng’s words, smiled slightly, "I will certainly not fail the task given by Lord Wu. Please rest assured and enter the flower sea."

He didn’t explain or say much more.

Since Wu Yunfeng trusted him, he wouldn’t commit betrayal either.

This was his long-standing principle.

This is a transaction; both parties must trust each other for it to be successfully completed.

Wu Yunfeng said no more, then stepped into the sea of flowers.

As Wu Yunfeng crushed a portion of the flower sea underfoot, it immediately spewed a large amount of poisonous gas, sweeping towards Wu Yunfeng.

At this moment, Wu Yunfeng’s robe billowed, Void Essence surged around him, and suddenly he opened his mouth.

A strong suction force emanated from his mouth.

The rushing poisonous gas was actually all swallowed by him.

This scene was quite bizarre, even Qin An found it surprising.

Yet, after the poisonous gas entered Wu Yunfeng’s body, his complexion was surprisingly calm.

Within him, an invisible force was neutralizing the poison gas.

This was the effect of his Poison Skill.

Golden Dao Marshal was one of the high-ranking figures of Heavenly Cloud Dao, even though Wu Yunfeng was a healer, he also had his unique methods.

Without combat power, he couldn’t have held the position of Golden Dao Marshal.

Therefore, with poison skill being so adept, absorbing poison gas was almost effortless.

"Qin An, take action."

Wu Yunfeng turned back to glance at Qin An.

At this moment, the poison gas in the flower sea seemed unable to affect Wu Yunfeng and intensified its efforts.

Especially in the center, a colorful flower suddenly twisted.

Strong poison gas mixed with various floral toxins formed a terrifying compound toxin, sweeping towards Wu Yunfeng.

Above the central flower, a virtual image appeared.

The virtual image gradually coalesced into an ugly old woman.

The old woman held a staff, her face a web of wrinkles.

Her eyes, including the whites, were pitch black.

The old woman wore colorful clothes, every inch of them exuding astonishing poison gas.

"A demon, formed from poisonous flowers."

Seeing the abruptly appearing old woman, Qin An narrowed his eyes slightly.

"Ordinary flower demons are usually alluring and beautiful, didn’t expect the ones formed by poisonous flowers to be so ugly."

He mumbled this in his heart, then stopped overthinking and activated the Treasure Bead in his hand.

As soon as the Treasure Bead was activated, Qin An observed the terrifying poison in the flower sea, starting to unravel the medical techniques in the Treasure Bead one by one, based on toxin types.

He cast each medical technique into the flower sea.

The toxicity of the flower sea was disappearing visibly to the naked eye.

The old woman, seeing this scene, showed a look of horror, then glared at Qin An with resentment, attempting to pounce on him.

But just then, Wu Yunfeng moved.

With a single step forward, Wu Yunfeng instantly appeared before the old woman.

"A demon of Shattering Void Realm Perfection dares to harm him in my presence?"

An icy voice came from Wu Yunfeng’s mouth.

Wu Yunfeng raised his hand, pressing it on the old woman’s face.

The next moment, terrifying poison exuded from Wu Yunfeng’s palm, enveloping the old woman entirely.

The old woman let out a miserable scream, and in just a few breaths, she turned into dust scattered in the wind.

Wu Yunfeng looked at the demon spirit in his hand and casually tossed it to Qin An, then continued to go deeper into the flower sea.

At this moment, the myriad of flowers in the sea of blooms seemed to know their impending doom, and instantaneously mingled together.

Soon after, those flowers coalesced into a gigantic carnivorous flower, spewing a dreadful poison gas toward Wu Yunfeng.

Wu Yunfeng waved his sleeve, activating the Poison Skill within his body, inhaling a large amount of the poison gas.

"Qin An, give me a detoxification method."

He took a moment to say.

Qin An didn’t pause, urging the Treasure Bead with Void Essence.

Immediately, a powerful healing technique bloomed from the Treasure Bead, entering Wu Yunfeng’s body.

With a series of palm strikes, in just two or three moves, Wu Yunfeng redirected the powerful poison gas into the gigantic carnivorous flower.

The flower burst apart, and the sea of flowers swiftly withered under the sweep of the poison gas.

Along with the gigantic carnivorous flower, everything vanished without a trace.

Wu Yunfeng moved his hands, folded them behind his back, and exhaled deeply.

"The first obstacle is over."

If not for Qin An urging the Treasure Bead earlier, even if he had killed the old woman, the appearance of the giant carnivorous flower would have caused him great trouble.

But with Qin An’s help in urging the Treasure Bead, he didn’t need to multitask, making it easy to handle the situation.

"Let’s move on to the next place."

Wu Yunfeng waved a hand.

Qin An nodded, holding the Treasure Bead and following Wu Yunfeng as they continued forward.

Soon, the two of them disappeared at the end of the mountain path.

...

This place had become a ruin.

Looking up, it was all pieces of flowers, presenting a scene too tragic to behold.

Yet, just after the two had walked away, a phantom suddenly emerged from the dark forest.

After landing on the ground, this phantom greedily absorbed the remaining toxins.

Once it had absorbed the residual toxins from the sea of flowers, it raised its head to look in the direction Wu Yunfeng and Qin An had departed, licking its lips.

A gentle breeze blew past, dispersing the poison gas around the phantom, revealing its true form.

It was a humanoid monster, bearing a human-like body and limbs, but covered in black skin and terrifying poisonous sores.

Its facial features were twisted, with the mouth at the top, the nose placed at the chin, and the eyes haphazardly placed on its face.

Every time these distorted features shifted, toxic liquid dripped onto the ground from the cracks.

It growled softly, eyes darting, then quietly followed behind the two, heading toward the end of the mountain path.

...

The end of the mountain path became increasingly rugged.

The further Qin An and Wu Yunfeng walked inside, the more difficult the mountain path became.

Fortunately, both were cultivators and managed to walk without encountering any obstructions.

In this way, after walking for nearly an hour, a massive cave appeared ahead.

The cave was pitch black, making it impossible to see inside from the outside.

As gusts of wind blew past, the cave emitted a wailing sound.

Wu Yunfeng glanced at Qin An and said, "This is the shortcut of this route, passing through this cave will lead to an open wilderness, where the terrifying poisonous creature I seek resides."

"However, there are quite a few hidden toxic creatures in this cave, so be very careful. Once inside, I will try my best to protect you, but sometimes if I am unable to, you will need to act on your own."

Anything can have an unexpected occurrence.

Wu Yunfeng was upfront with his words.

He would strive to protect Qin An, but in case of any real emergencies, Qin An would need to resolve them himself.

Qin An nodded, "Don’t worry."

"These things, I naturally understand, let’s speed up," he added.

Seeing Qin An speak with such confidence, Wu Yunfeng could only nod and, along with Qin An, stepped into the cave.

Upon entering the cave, a chilling aura greeted them.

The toxicity here was even more intense than before.

Qin An once again took out a pill, swallowed it, and they continued their journey inside the cave.

The cave was damp and devoid of light, but Wu Yunfeng retrieved a Luminous Pearl from his medicine box to serve as a light source.

The light from the Luminous Pearl illuminated the surroundings.

Only then did Qin An notice the terrifying sight inside the cave.

On the cave’s walls, animal corpses were embedded.

The bodies of these animals were merged with the wall, each one meeting a gruesome end.

Upon close examination, one would also find that the walls carried a terrifying poison.

"Were these all creatures that entered the cave and died inside?"

Qin An asked, rubbing his chin.

Wu Yunfeng slightly slowed his pace and shook his head, "This cave is quite mysterious. I explored it once before but couldn’t find any results. I don’t know why it attracts so many animals."

"Moreover, these animals are all poisonous creatures that grew on the Ten Thousand Poison Cloud Peak."

"Only poison can attract poison," Qin An noted, "It seems this cave isn’t as simple as we thought."

Wu Yunfeng nodded, "So everything must be approached cautiously."

After chatting for a while, they ceased their conversation and continued forward.

Wu Yunfeng had explored here before but never ventured deep.

At that time, he couldn’t find someone to help him control the Treasure Bead.

He had entered the sea of flowers and then turned back, skirting around the blooms.

The reason he didn’t bypass it today was to seek the most direct route.

After walking a bit further, a grain-sized point of light appeared ahead.

Qin An and Wu Yunfeng exchanged glances, preparing to move forward.

But just then, an unexpected occurrence arose...
