Chapter 34

This golden snake lives near a pond on the back mountain of the Five Poisons Sect. There is a cave there, and the golden snake lives inside. This golden snake has a habit of sleeping after eating, and it doesn't like to move around much.

At the time, the Five Poisons Sect went to great lengths to finally develop a drug that the golden snake really likes. When this drug is placed in animal carcasses, the golden snake likes it even more.

After several trials, they confirmed that the golden snake likes this drug and will sleep after eating. The Five Poisons Sect knew that poisoning the golden snake wouldn't work, so they mixed a large amount of hypnotic drugs with the drug the golden snake likes, and placed them in animal carcasses to feed the golden snake.

This time, it finally worked. After eating, the golden snake returned to the cave to sleep, and this sleep lasted for half a month. After several attempts, the Five Poisons Sect finally figured out how to deal with the golden snake.

That is, every half a month, they would place a large number of animal carcasses, mixed with the drug and hypnotic drugs, at the entrance of the cave. When the golden snake wakes up, it will eat these animal carcasses, and after eating and drinking, it will return to the cave to sleep.

Of course, over the past hundred years, things haven't always gone smoothly. Although the golden snake wakes up every half a month, the exact time is uncertain. The animal carcasses must be fresh, and the drug the golden snake likes cannot be placed in advance, or it will wake up prematurely.

Therefore, they can only place the animal carcasses and drugs at the entrance of the cave before dawn, and then quickly leave. The golden snake will usually wake up soon after being attracted by the smell of the drug.

But if the golden snake wakes up prematurely, those who placed the carcasses and drugs will all become its meal.

Over the past hundred years, more than five thousand disciples of the Five Poisons Sect and Miao people have been eaten by this golden snake. One could say that the Five Poisons Sect and the Miao people have a deep-seated hatred for the golden snake.

However, there's nothing they can do. Over the past hundred years, the golden snake has grown larger and stronger, and the Five Poisons Sect has no way to deal with it. They can only treat it like a revered master.

Moreover, the Five Poisons Sect's fondness for poisons and admiration for strength have led them to create the three treasures of the sect based on the golden snake's appearance: the Golden Snake Sword, the Golden Snake Spike, and the Golden Snake Sword Technique.

But the hatred for the golden snake has made it so that no one in the Five Poisons Sect, including the sect leader, uses these three treasures, and they are always kept in reverence.

This is why the Five Poisons Ancestor and He Qi had such complex thoughts when they mentioned the golden snake.

Now, they are going to awaken the sleeping golden snake to deal with Dongfang Bubai, and they no longer think about the consequences.

Xia Xueyi's mind raced, thinking about her way out.

On the main road to the Five Poisons Sect, thousands of men dressed in the same purple-black clothes marched majestically, and everyone they passed made way for them.

About two miles behind, there were over a thousand people from various martial arts factions, each holding weapons and dressed differently. It was clear that they were not from the same faction, and they were disorderly and undisciplined. Those with keen eyes could see that they were a motley crowd, and these people were naturally there to watch the spectacle.

"Is this the people of the Sun Moon Sect? They look so majestic!"

"Of course, haven't you seen the luxurious palanquin in the middle? The one sitting inside must be Dongfang Bubai. The news that Dongfang Bubai has left Blackwood Cliff to personally destroy the Five Poisons Sect has already spread far and wide."

"Is the one in the palanquin Dongfang Bubai? The eight men carrying the palanquin look very powerful!"

"Of course, do you know what level those eight men are? They are all mid-stage innate experts, of course they are powerful."

"What! All mid-stage innate! To have mid-stage innate experts carry the palanquin, it's really, really...!"

...

On both sides of the road, many people were whispering, looking at the might of the Sun Moon Sect with a mix of fear and envy in their eyes.

In the center of the Sun Moon Sect's group, inside the large palanquin carried by eight men, Dongfang Bubai was handling sect affairs. Indeed, after leaving Blackwood Cliff, various important sect matters were reported to Dongfang Bubai via carrier pigeons for him to handle.

This large palanquin was very spacious, with a desk for handling affairs, a large bed, and plenty of fruits and snacks. Besides Dongfang Bubai, it could seat several more people, and there was no movement inside, making it very comfortable for him to handle sect affairs.

In front of the desk, Dongfang Bubai was quickly reviewing various information and writing orders on various documents, with no trace of emotion in his eyes.

Although handling sect affairs took up a lot of Dongfang Bubai's time, he enjoyed this feeling of having great power and the ability to decide life and death with a single word. This sense of control also made his mind more open, and his martial arts practice more efficient.

"Report to the sect leader!" Suddenly, Zhang Chengyun's voice came from outside the palanquin.

"What is it?" Dongfang Bubai continued to write orders with his pen, speaking calmly.

"There are more and more martial arts people following us from two miles behind. Should we disperse them, sir?" Zhang Chengyun asked respectfully.

A hint of something indescribable flashed in Dongfang Bubai's eyes, and he said softly, "No, if they want to follow, let them follow."

"Yes." Zhang Chengyun nodded in response.

"How much longer until we meet up with Zhao He and the others?" Dongfang Bubai asked calmly.

"Sir, we will meet up with Hall Master Zhao and the others in about two days," Zhang Chengyun said without hesitation.

"Hmm, you may go now." Dongfang Bubai said firmly but without room for argument.

"Yes, I will take my leave." Zhang Chengyun bowed and left.

Inside the palanquin, Dongfang Bubai handled sect affairs for a while, then sat cross-legged on the bed and continued to practice the Sun Moon Nine Transforms. He had already reached the eighth level of innate, and the seventh level of the Sun Moon Nine Transforms. If he could break through to the eighth level, he would also break through to the ninth level of innate, greatly enhancing his strength.

However, the more he practiced, the more dissatisfied he became with the Sun Moon Nine Transforms. In the past, it was fine, but after reading the *Manual of the Sunflower*, Dongfang Bubai was attracted by the power of the Sunflower internal energy.

He was naturally dissatisfied with the internal energy produced by the Sun Moon Nine Transforms. If it weren't for his unparalleled first thread of internal energy, his internal energy's purity and power would not be much stronger than that of experts at the same level.

How could this satisfy Dongfang Bubai, who always strove to be the best? Therefore, he became even more eager to obtain the *Unbreakable Body of the Buddha*. With the *Unbreakable Body of the Buddha*, he could cultivate Sunflower internal energy, and at the same level, his strength would increase by several levels.

Suppressing his eagerness, Dongfang Bubai knew that the current task was to subdue the Five Poisons Sect and strengthen the Sun Moon Sect, which would also accelerate his own cultivation. Once he reached the ninth level of innate, he would go to Jinling City to obtain the *Unbreakable Body of the Buddha*.

Putting aside his thoughts, Dongfang Bubai fully focused on the Sun Moon Nine Transforms. Although he was dissatisfied with the Sun Moon Nine Transforms, every bit of cultivation now was a bit of increased strength.

...

Two days felt very different to the people of the Sun Moon Sect and the Five Poisons Sect. The Sun Moon Sect felt it was very slow, while the Five Poisons Sect felt it was very fast, making their preparations rushed.

But no matter what, the two days were over.

That afternoon, Dongfang Bubai and his group finally arrived at the headquarters of the Five Poisons Sect and met up with Zhao He, Fan Song, Ren Woxing, and others.

"Pay respects to the sect leader!"

...

Under the leadership of Zhao He, Zhuque Hall, and Xuanwu Hall disciples had all left their positions and knelt on one knee to pay respects to the large palanquin in front of them.

"Everyone, stand up." Dongfang Bubai did not leave the palanquin, and his steady, authoritative voice reached everyone's ears.

"Thank you, sect leader."

After everyone stood up, Dongfang Bubai ordered from inside the palanquin, "Pass my order, everyone go directly to the entrance of the Five Poisons Sect's stronghold. I want to see how tough the Five Poisons Sect is."

"Yes, we will follow the sect leader's order."

Seven thousand people bowed and responded loudly, their voices filled with excitement and enthusiasm, making the martial arts people who had come to watch the spectacle somewhat pale and sighing in their hearts: the real battle is about to begin.

Seven thousand people quickly moved to the front of the Five Poisons Sect's stronghold. This large movement was not unnoticed by the Five Poisons Sect. The sect leader, deputy leader, grand elder, four elders, and a group of experts were all standing on the stronghold's gate tower, looking solemnly at the Sun Moon Sect's forces approaching.

"Dongfang Bubai has arrived." He Qi said with a very heavy expression.

No one responded to him. They all looked solemnly at the large palanquin in the crowd, knowing that Dongfang Bubai was inside the luxurious, spacious palanquin.

"Are you all prepared?" He Qi asked somewhat anxiously.

"Sir, everything is arranged. As soon as Dongfang Bubai attacks the stronghold, I will immediately go to lure out that beast," the Five Poisons Ancestor said firmly.

Lan Ping did not respond, but nodded solemnly.

"Good, let's see what Dongfang Bubai's final intention is. If we can negotiate, that's fine, otherwise...!" He Qi himself didn't quite believe it, as the Sun Moon Sect had put in so much effort and would not easily negotiate.

"Yes, if not, we will lure out that beast. If Dongfang Bubai doesn't let us live, we won't let him live either," Lan Ping said with a grim expression.

"Yes, we won't let him live either!" The others also nodded and said with hatred.

In less than half an hour, the seven thousand people of the Sun Moon Sect were already standing neatly about 150 meters in front of the Five Poisons Sect's stronghold.

The large palanquin was at the center of the front of the crowd.

At this moment, Zhang Chengyun stepped forward, glanced contemptuously at He Qi and the others, and shouted loudly, "People of the Five Poisons Sect, listen...!"
