Chapter 45: Yama Clam

Boom…

A gigantic black python was slammed down by Yun Yi, letting out a piercing cry of pain.

The black python struggled to rise, wanting to escape, but Yun Yi would not give it the chance. He immediately raised his arm and threw the black python high into the air, then slammed it down heavily.

After two or three hits, the black python completely stopped moving, leaving several deep pits on the ground.

"A mere eighth grade of the Open Spirit Realm dares to ambush me."

Yun Yi scoffed; this black python was unlucky to have encountered him.

With Yun Yi’s current strength, even a large monster from the innate realm would die if it faced him, let alone the black python, which was only from the Open Spirit Realm.

Ignoring the corpse of the black python, Yun Yi continued on his way.

During the following time, as Yun Yi walked, he intentionally released his innate realm aura, causing the demon beasts he passed to tremble in fear and not dare to approach.

Right now, he was only at the outskirts of Qianyang Mountain, where the demon beasts were of very low level. Yun Yi did not want to waste too much time on these small monsters; the most important thing was to hurry, as the long journey had just begun.

According to Yun Yi’s estimate, as he went deeper into Qianyang Mountain, the demon beasts that appeared would become more powerful. This area posed no threat or challenge to Yun Yi.

Yun Yi walked for half a month. During this time, he encountered some careless demon beasts, but they were only at the peak of the Open Spirit Realm; he had not met a single innate realm demon beast.

By this time, Yun Yi became more cautious. The area he was in was already close to the center of Qianyang Mountain, and if he moved any further, innate realm demon beasts would really appear.

The setting sun was blood-red, and on the rugged mountain path, a figure moved swiftly like a leopard, exceptionally agile.

The young man jumped up onto a big tree, his body slightly bent, and he looked around.

Half a month of training made the young man’s face look even more resolute, and deep in his eyes, there was a calmness along with an unnoticeable hint of cruelty.

From the moment he stepped into Qianyang Mountain, Yun Yi knew that this was a world where the strong preyed on the weak. To survive in this world, you must learn one thing: to be ruthless.

Snap!

Suddenly, a green droplet fell from the tree, landing perfectly on the trunk right in front of Yun Yi.

Hiss hiss…

When the green droplet landed on the tree trunk, the trunk made a sizzling sound, instantly withering and turning into a piece of black wood.

Fuck!

Yun Yi couldn’t help but shiver, and at the same time, he felt an extremely dangerous presence coming from above, making his scalp tingle.

Not daring to be slow for even a moment, Yun Yi leaped forward and jumped down from the tree.

At the moment Yun Yi jumped down, a huge creature also fell, smashing the tree trunk he had just stepped on.

Boom!

The giant creature fell to the ground from above, raising a cloud of dust.

Quack!

A cold and strange sound came from the creature’s mouth, and Yun Yi saw himself being stared at by a pair of shiny green eyes.

That gaze was extremely cold, as if it came from hell itself. Just a single glance could affect a person’s mind, giving a chilling feeling.

And look at this huge creature, its body was about ten feet long, lying there like a house, glowing with green light, covered in bumpy spots that looked very disgusting.

That’s right, it is a toad, a giant toad!

"Yama Clam."

Yun Yi could not help but roll his eyes, thinking how lucky he was. The legendary Poison King appeared in such a small place like Qianyang Mountain, and he just happened to encounter it. What luck!

Yun Yi read many books and naturally knew a little about the Yama Clam, the Poison King.

The powerful poison of the Yama Clam could be guessed just from its name; not everyone can dare to say "King of Hell."

The Yama Clam before him had already reached the second grade of the Innate Realm, but because of its fierce poison, even a regular third or fourth grade expert would avoid it and not dare to fight.

Without a doubt, within Qianyang Mountain, this Yama Clam at the second grade of the Innate Realm could be called a king.

Yun Yi had already been firmly targeted by Yama Clam, and it was clear that Yama Clam saw Yun Yi as its prey.

Facing such a strong opponent, Yun Yi had to stay very alert; any little mistake could cost him his life.

Quack!

Yama Clam moved and opened its mouth to shoot a poisonous arrow. The green poison turned into a cold flash and, in the blink of an eye, reached Yun Yi. It was incredibly fast.

Yun Yi was prepared; he turned his body just in time to avoid the poison. The poison passed by him, leaving a disgusting, sharp smell in the air.

Clap!

The poisonous arrow shot through the trunk of a large tree, and immediately black smoke began to rise from it. Soon, a big hole was eaten away, and with a gust of wind, the tree broke in half.

"No wonder it is called the king of poison. Looks like I need to strike first."

Yun Yi’s eyes turned cold; the poison from Yama Clam was even more terrifying than he had imagined. If he just kept avoiding it, he would be stuck in a helpless situation.

But now locked onto by Yama Clam, it was very difficult to escape in this unfamiliar mountain range, especially since Yun Yi himself had a strong desire to win.

So, he decided to take the initiative.

The best defense is attack; Yun Yi had always believed this.

Yun Yi moved like a dragon, charging towards Yama Clam. His body was surrounded by raging flames, and a battle sword appeared in his hand from his storage bag. The Red Lotus Karma Fire enveloped the entire blade, and for a moment, the temperature in the forest suddenly increased.

Seeing Yun Yi’s blazing fire, Yama Clam was clearly stunned. As a sinister creature, flames are what he fears the most. If it were normal fire, Yama Clam might not care, but Yun Yi’s Red Lotus Karma Fire made him feel a shiver in his soul.

Sizzle!

In a battle between experts, there must be no moments of weakness. Yama Clam’s daze gave Yun Yi a big opening and opportunity.

The flame-filled sword slashed fiercely across Yama Clam’s body. Even though Yama Clam reacted at the last moment, he was still severely injured, leaving a deep sword mark that reached the bone.

"Quack, damn human! What kind of flame is this, that can burn my very essence? You have completely angered me. I will poison you and make you experience the most painful punishment in the world, letting you die in endless suffering."

Yama Clam was furious, jumping up in anger. He could not believe that a human boy, who was not even as strong as he was, had hurt him. It was truly embarrassing. If this news got out, he would not be able to show his face in Qianyang Mountain again.
