The night was late.

Outside the forest, it was completely silent. Not even the chirping of insects could be heard. The recent battles had been too intense.

A bonfire was burning fiercely.

The flames reflected off their faces.

Xu Zhengdao's words made everyone's hearts sink.

"Why?" Xu Xindie's expression was solemn because he would not easily say such words.

"There are almost no antidotes left for the Fiery-Scaled Serpent's poison." This was very important. Being bitten was nothing, but if there was no cure for the poison, then he would die for sure. This time's trial lasted forty-nine days.

"This is a big problem." Xu Lei of the Winter Court had a grave expression on his face.

"This time around, I did not expect that the Fiery-Scaled Serpent's antidote would be so rare." Xu Yudan, who came from Xia recuperation hospital, was pale and her voice was weak. Her shoulder was bitten through by the Flaming Scaled Snake and she had almost lost her entire arm.

"Do I have to lose to them like this? I refuse to accept this!" The Winter Court clenched its fists, but everyone's life was more important than victory or defeat.

Xu Xindie was also lost in thought. It was impossible to concoct the antidote for the Fire Scale Snake poison right now. She sighed: "If it really won't work, then we will admit defeat. It's better than losing someone."

Although she really wanted to win this trial, losing was still better than losing her companion's life.

"I think maybe you could try my blood." In Xu Zongyi's battle with the Flaming Snake, he had also been injured by Du Ya's venomous fangs. However, he had remained safe and sound, and his physique was resistant to poisons.

Xu Xindie and Xu Zhengdao suddenly remembered when they were in the Great Earth Hall.

At that time, Xu Zongyi did not cultivate, but the blood in his body already had the ability to resist the miasma heart grass. Now that he had already stepped into the realm of drawing qi into his flesh, the blood in his body would probably be even stronger than it was back then!

"This is indeed a way." The two of them were almost simultaneously.

"Zong Yi's blood?" Xiao E, who was at the side, was very surprised.

"That's right. The last time the two of us were able to achieve such a result in the Great Earth Hall, it was only because of Zong Yi's blood that we were able to cross the Sea of Bitterness." Xu Zhengdao nodded.

"No wonder you only know how to smile at him!" Xu Yudan was someone who adored him. Now that she knew the real reason, she finally accepted it.

"Since it's like this, I'll forgive you." At the side, there was a girl from the School of Spring. Her name was Xu Fuping, and she was pretty and dexterous.

Originally, a group of people who adored Xu Zhengdao would have some opinions from Xu Zongyi, which was why he was mocked earlier. But now, they had a whole new level of respect for him.

Xu Zhengdao had stepped into the second layer of the Sea of Awakening because of his bloodline. Xu Zongyi had never told him about it, but if it were anyone else, Xu Zhengdao would have been willing to say it out loud so that Xu Zhengdao would owe him a huge favor.

"…" Xu Zongyi sighed helplessly, "Righteous Fellow Daoist, you sure have great charisma."

Xu Zhengdao's eyelids twitched as he laughed dryly, "Hurry up and put some blood on it. Let's see if it works."

"Then I'll give it a try." Xu Yudan had the suppressed Fiery-Scaled Serpent poison on her body. She was currently relatively weak and couldn't act rashly. She could only wait for the poison to gradually dissipate. Otherwise, if blood flowed into her five viscera, she would die without a doubt.

Xu Zongyi nodded and immediately took out a small bowl, letting out half a bowl of blood.

In less than an hour, the remaining poison in his body had been washed clean.

"It's really effective!" Her expression was one of pleasant surprise. She knew that Xu Zongyi definitely possessed the legendary ability to detoxify poisons.

"Looks like we don't have to give up in advance." Xu Xindie was very happy. These seven days had brought her a lot of pressure. If she was too weak, she really wouldn't be able to fight anymore.

However, for her and Xu Zhengdao, their strength had also increased tremendously. If they could continue to persevere like this, they both believed that they would be able to break through their limits and ascend to greater heights.

Xu Zongyi hurriedly let out another large bowl of blood, making all of the people present drink the Fiery-Scaled Serpent's poison as well.

As expected, the residual poison in his body had been eliminated.

Xu Xindie quickly took out some external medicine to help heal his wounds.

"Everyone, try to get some time to rest. I'll keep watch. If there's an enemy attack, I'll inform you immediately." Letting out a few bowls of blood didn't have much of an impact on Xu Zongyi. After all, everyone had been fighting for several days, and most of them were injured.

"Zong Yi is right. Rest well." Xiao E immediately made the necessary arrangements, even Xu Xindie and Xu Zhengdao had to listen to her.

Xiao E came from the Japanese Academy, and as a logistics dispatcher, she arranged food and drinks, as well as rest time control, which was extremely well adjusted.

She also had her own understanding of the improvement of water quality.

As for cooking a big pot of rice, to the people of the Japanese Courtyard, this was just a basic skill.

It wasn't until everyone had been arranged that Xiao E came to Xu Zongyi's side.

"Zong Yi, Big Sister Xiao E has no ability. She can't fight alongside you against these strange beasts. You must take care of her safety." Xiao E felt a little helpless. She was only at the peak of Qi Drawing, just a step away from entering the realm of Qi Drawing into the Blood.

"How can that be? If you didn't arrange for the logistics, we would have been in a mess long ago. The snake porridge we've cooked recently is becoming more and more delicious, giving me even more strength to fight the berserk beasts!" Little E's face was delicate and pretty, and her temperament was gentle and gentle. She was an extremely good woman, and he didn't want her to be so unconfident. He always felt that he was a servant, a lowly person, and always felt that he was incompetent and inferior to others.

"You only know how to coax me in a nice way. You, you lost so much blood, will you be tired?" Xiao E was worried.

"Don't worry. Look, they are all injured. I am fine. Besides, don't you women have to bleed a lot every month?" Xu Zongyi's face was forever filled with a carefree smile that carried a hint of naughtiness.

"Little hooligan, you're always like this, but I want to tell you, in the face of death, winning or losing is not important. In the end, training is just a test. Little E rolled her eyes at him, but continued to speak with all her heart. In her heart, Xu Zongyi's life was more important than anything else. Being able to live was the best.

"I know, if you weren't so young, I would have thought you were my mother." With an absolutely obedient look, Xu Zongyi hurriedly pushed her away. "Hurry up and go to sleep. Even a busy day is tiring."

"Sigh …" Xiao E shook her head. She could only rest, and since she was the weakest in the whole field, she was very tired after working hard for a whole day.

That night, it was exceptionally quiet.

Because Xu Zhengdao had been keeping watch all day, he was too tired and fell into a deep sleep.

Xu Zongyi did not go and disturb them. He only hoped that everyone could rest a little more.

Just as the sky had just begun to brighten, he also felt a little tired. Suddenly, a strong gust of wind blew towards him.

The hairs on Xu Zongyi's body all stood on end as he instinctively felt danger.

The gigantic head of the snake rammed into him. With one hand on the sword hilt and the other on the sword, he stood in front of himself.

A crisp sound rang out.

His entire body was sent flying. A Firelizard snake, fifteen meters in size, had already entered the air flow through its entire body, possessing five thousand points of strength. Under this surprise attack, Xu Zongyi was unable to resist at all.

All over his body, his qi and blood trembled.

He felt his hands go numb, and the sound of blood gurgling could be heard. The power of this Fiery-Scaled Snake was a full thousand pounds higher.

"Enemy attack!" Xu Zongyi let out a stern shout.

Everyone who was sleeping quickly got up. At this moment, blood peaks the size of a fist broke through the air one after another. They were crimson all over.

Xu Zongyi was unable to dodge at all, and eighteen tail thorns instantly pierced into his body. Each of them was as long as an adult's middle finger, and were exceptionally sharp.

At almost the same time, eighteen streams of cold, clear water poured into his blood vessels.

Seeing this scene, he sneered: "Even if you swallowed the antidote right away, even if you don't die, your internal organs will be severely damaged. After your blood vessels have been blocked by the bee venom, your path of cultivation will be destroyed. This is your life! "

He was certain that Xu Zongyi had been severely injured, so he turned around and left.

At this moment, the scaled fire serpent charged at Xu Zongyi once more, wanting to deal a fatal blow to him.

Xu Zhengdao and Xu Xindie appeared at the same time.

On the flat ground, a spring breeze blew.

Suddenly, frost and snow began to fall.

The entire body of this Flaming Snake was cut into several pieces.

When the two attacked together, ordinary vicious beasts that penetrated the body simply weren't a match for a single move of theirs.

The blood wasps instantly lost their life force and fell to the ground. They risked their lives and pierced into Xu Zongyi's body with their tails.

He felt a sharp pain all over his body, as the poison from the stinger seemed to seep into his blood vessels.

"This is bad. The poison from the blood wasp's tail can flow through the blood and into the organs, causing them to become numb and rot …." When Xu Xindie saw this, she became extremely nervous, "Quick, take the antidote for the blood bees. These blood bees are already at the Qi Drawing Realm. The poison is not ordinary."

"Wait a minute!" Xu Zongyi hurriedly stopped him.

"Why?" At the side, Xu Zhengdao's face was solemn.

"Just help me remove all the thorns on my body!" The fact that Xu Zongyi could detect that the poison of these stingers was basically unable to threaten him at all, and was even able to feel that they seemed to be able to nourish his body, also surprised him.

"Right, Zong Yi's physique can defend against poison." Xu Xindie heaved a sigh of relief.

However, even though there were eighteen bloody holes on Xu Zongyi's body, Little E, who was watching from the side, still felt heartache. Her eyes turned red as tears continued to flow out of her eyes.

Xu Zongyi concentrated all of his attention and absorbed the spiritual Qi of Heaven and Earth into his body.

Originally, for him, it would take some time to step into Qi Drawing and enter the bloodstream.

However, the attacks of the Flaming Snake caused the blood within his body to tremble violently.

In addition, when the Blood Bee Tail Needle was injected into the body, it actually evolved into nourishment to nourish the body. Thus, the most important thing was to temper the body while it was hot.

He immediately allowed his blood vessels to breathe with his skin. This was a state where his blood would be in contact with the spiritual Qi of Heaven and Earth in the outside world.

The so-called drawing qi into the blood was to let the spiritual Qi of Heaven and Earth fuse with the blood in order to purify the impurities in the blood.

The deeper one's body was, the more impurities one had. Only layers of impurities could be absorbed and washed away so that one's physical body would be pure and free from any hindrances to cultivation.

Eighteen bloody holes continuously flowed with black blood. There were quite a few impurities within them that had been expelled from their bodies at this time, emitting a fishy smell. This was a once in a lifetime opportunity.

Originally, if Xu Zongyi wanted to break through on his own, he would probably have expended a great deal of effort. Now, these blood bees could be said to have helped him, allowing him to step into the realm of drawing qi into blood ahead of time.

"This brat, Zong Yi, he really dares to go all out!" "He actually dares to do such a thing." When Xu Xindie saw this scene, she was extremely surprised. She had obviously guessed what Xu Zongyi was doing.

"We are at the Qi Drawing Realm, cleaning up the impurities in the blood, and we don't know how much thought it would take. Brother Zong Yi's actions have indeed saved a lot of effort. These blood wasps do not know that the poison in their bodies is actually a great tonic for him." Xu Zhengdao was also very impressed.

A huge amount of the spiritual Qi of Heaven and Earth poured into his blood. Everyone could feel a surge of energy coming from Xu Zongyi's body.

"I broke through. I drew Qi into my blood." Xu Xindie smiled.

Xu Zongyi felt the strength in his entire body rapidly grow as he felt an unprecedented sense of elation.

"4100 jins!"

"4200 jins!"

"4300 jins!"

"Six thousand kilograms …"

When he stopped cultivating, it wasn't that his strength couldn't increase again, but that he was too hungry.

She was about to faint. Luckily, Xiao E had prepared ahead of time, peeling off the whole head of the Flaming Snake that was filled with Qi, and using the essence of it to cook the Purple-rank Body Strengthening Rice.

Xu Zongyi ate a huge pot of food all by himself before his hunger vanished completely.

After eating, he sat down cross-legged to cultivate again. His strength had increased to 6500 jin, then it abruptly stopped.

"So powerful!"

This was the voice in the hearts of all the farm disciples present, even though Xu Zongyi had just stepped into the Qi Drawing Realm to draw in his blood.

However, his power was already the third strongest after Xu Zhengdao and Xu Xindie.

However, that same night, a pair of blood-red eyes opened in the depths of Taihang Mountains. The entire mountainous area became abnormally quiet.

Countless strange beasts seemed to have sensed this aura and couldn't help but tremble in fear.
