"The Black Wood Poison Technique requires continually devouring and refining various poisons to enhance one's Poison Meridian Skill, and the so-called Black Wood Qi is specifically used to suppress these toxic energies."

Yun Xiao spoke eloquently, causing Qian Sanyuan and the others nearby to exchange glances, for despite being aware of the name Black Wood Poison Technique, they were completely clueless about its cultivation method.

Even within the Meridian Refining Master Association of the Tenglong Continent, there are not many who practice Medical and Poison Cultivation, and the grade of the Black Wood Poison Technique is exceptionally high; Earth-rank level Medical and Poison Refining Masters dare not easily attempt its cultivation.

Thus, Qian Sanyuan, Qingmu Wu, and the others never considered cultivating the Black Wood Poison Technique. Such a supreme cultivation technique, if forcibly cultivated, might result in death, with both the soul and body erased.

"What's the situation now?"

Qian Sanyuan was most concerned about the President's condition, hence he directly asked, putting aside matters concerning the Black Wood Poison Technique.

At this moment, Qian Sanyuan, Qingmu Wu, and Guan Rufeng all turned their eyes to the young boy in coarse clothing, as they were utterly blind to the black and green mist in the hall, unaware of what was happening to the President inside.

In this bewildering moment, Yun Xiao suddenly spoke clearly and concisely, so they placed their hopes on this miraculous young boy. Since you can recognize the Black Wood Poison Technique and Black Wood Qi, surely you must have a way to resolve this? 𝚏𝕣𝕖𝚎𝚠𝚎𝚋𝚗𝐨𝐯𝕖𝕝.𝕔𝐨𝕞

"It appears our President wants to forcibly break through to the Heavenly Realm, causing some potent poisonous energy in the Black Wood Poison Technique to suddenly erupt, while attempting to use Black Wood Qi to forcefully suppress it, leading to the current stalemate!"

Without keeping them guessing, Yun Xiao pointed to the black and green mist on both sides of the hall, and it was at that moment that Guan Rufeng and Qian Sanyuan realized that mist might not merely be Yuan Ming Spider Poison.

"So this truly is the only way to break through to the Heavenly Realm, just that the President has been too hasty, a mishap has occurred, and now it seems if the Black Wood Qi cannot suppress these toxins, the consequences could be unimaginable!"

Yun Xiao finally voiced his speculation, and upon hearing this, the faces of the three listeners changed dramatically; after all, the President is an indispensable pillar of the Meridian Refining Master Association.

If Yun Xiao's words hold true, not only might the breakthrough fail during this attempt, but it could also cost the President his life.

To these three, the degradation of the Meridian Refining Master Association's status would be trivial, but they genuinely respect the President and cannot merely watch him die.

Yet after hearing Yun Xiao's explanation, Qian Sanyuan and the others did not dare to act rashly, given the toxin has reached Middle-level Heaven Rank, and even the President cannot suppress it — if they dared to touch it, the outcome could be extremely dire.

"Let me give it a try!"

Among the three, only Qingmu Wu is a Poison Vein Master of Middle-level Heaven Rank, thus he has some confidence in himself.

In this critical moment, Qingmu Wu knew that any delay could add danger to the President, thus he bravely volunteered, hoping for a lucky hazard.

Though Qingmu Wu was not absolutely assured of assisting the President in suppressing the Yuan Ming Spider Poison, he was the most certain of escaping unharmed after failure, as the other two were merely Medical Pulse Masters.

"Hold on, Dean Qing!"

Just as Qingmu Wu's words fell and he took a step forward, a familiar voice sounded from behind, causing him to halt abruptly, turning his head to see Yun Xiao speaking.

"Dean Qing must think that the green toxic mist is only Middle-level Heaven Rank, right?"

Upon Qingmu Wu turning his head, Yun Xiao didn't hesitate, directly questioning, and though he posed it as a question, his tone subtly confirmed it.

"Isn't it?"

Qian Sanyuan's expression changed, as he had thought the same, hence he didn't stop Qingmu Wu, considering it the best solution.

But after hearing Yun Xiao, Qian Sanyuan felt he might have misunderstood something, and if the toxin isn't Middle-level Heaven Rank, it implies Qingmu Wu has narrowly escaped death.

"With the President originally at the Peak of the Lingyun Realm, the dispersed toxin indeed was only Middle-level Heaven Rank, but the current situation is not normal!"

Yun Xiao wasted no time, continuing: "I previously mentioned the President was overly anxious, attempting to forcibly break through to the early stage of the Heavenly Realm, thus these green toxins are not passively dispersed, but actively condensed by the President!"

"For the sake of breaking through to the Heavenly Realm, the President forcibly improved the toxin grade on the original Middle-level Heaven Rank basis, aiming to use this High-level Heaven Rank toxin to achieve success in the breakthrough!"

As the boy in coarse clothing spoke articulately, the phrase "High-level Heaven Rank toxin" brought a shiver to Qingmu Wu, causing him to subtly take a step back.

No matter how confident Qingmu Wu is in his Poison Meridian Skill, he, only at the Late Floating Life Realm, can at most resist high-level Heaven Rank toxins.

High-level Heaven Rank toxins—Qingmu Wu had reason to believe that if he were to touch them, he might instantly be poisoned to death. With the President absent, no one in Lianyun Mountain could detoxify him in time.

From Yun Xiao's explanation, Qian Sanyuan somewhat understood that breaking through from the Lingyun Realm to the Heavenly Realm is like an insurmountable gap; achieving such a breakthrough is not simple.

Moreover, this time, Lu Yanji hasn't even found a chance to break through to the Heavenly Realm, but rather, he plans to use his cultivation technique to make those forcibly upgraded high-level Heaven Rank toxins as nourishment for his breakthrough.

This indeed has a chance of success, but the possibility of failure is even greater.

For instance, the current situation clearly shows that Lu Yanji himself cannot suppress the high-level Heaven Rank toxins, putting himself in a highly awkward situation.

However, Qian Sanyuan could understand the President's feelings; it must be the Holy Grade Heavenly Spirit that escaped from Xuanyin Hall that gave Lu Yanji immense pressure, prompting him to attempt a forced breakthrough, risking life and death.

"What should we do now?"

Knowing that it was a high-level Heaven Rank toxin, Qingmu Wu dismissed the idea of trying, knowing clearly that if he recklessly proceeded, not only could he not save the President, but he might also end up losing his own life.

"Do we just watch helplessly?"

Qian Sanyuan also shared this urgency; he initially had some hope for Yun Xiao, but like Qingmu Wu, when realizing it was a high-level Heaven Rank toxin, this hope quickly vanished.

No matter how miraculous this coarse-clothed boy might be, he was only at the Late Floating Life Realm, corresponding to a low-level Heavenly Rank Pulse Refiner.

Even though Qian Sanyuan knew Yun Xiao was skilled in both medical and poison cultivation, due to his age, his Poison Meridian Skill might not surpass Qingmu Wu, Dean of the Sky Poison Institute, let alone the President.

In fact, such high-level Heaven Rank toxins are beyond the ability of both Qingmu Wu and the President to resolve; what could a low-level Heavenly Rank Pulse Refiner do in such a dire situation?

"You don't have to look like that. I haven't even made a move yet?"

Just as Qian Sanyuan, Qingmu Wu, and the others felt despair, Yun Xiao spoke, causing them to turn sharply, with a flicker of hope in their eyes.

"Yun Xiao, do you really have a way?"

Guan Rufeng asked directly, unable to think of anything else at the moment. Some hope in such a predicament was definitely joyous.

"Yun Xiao, if you're not confident, don't force it!"

After Guan Rufeng's question, Qian Sanyuan interjected solemnly. Now, his regard for Yun Xiao was almost as high as the President's.

Qian Sanyuan knew that with Yun Xiao's talent, it might not be long before he truly surpasses him, leaving him behind in both Meridian Qi Cultivation and Meridian Refining Technique.

Given time, becoming the foremost in Lianyun Mountain, reaching the rank of President Lu Yanji, wasn't impossible; this young man's talent was already beginning to shine.

Now that Lu Yanji was in a critical situation, saving him would surely be a joy for all, but if they couldn't, Lianyun Mountain couldn't bear to lose another extremely talented individual.

Qian Sanyuan was most worried that Yun Xiao's youthful pride might lead him to claim tenfold confidence when he only had one-tenth, resulting in both the President and Yun Xiao falling, dragging Lianyun Mountain into a sweep from the four superpowers.

"Don't worry. I haven't acted yet because I hadn't figured out a few things. Now, I've got at least eighty percent confidence!"

After Guan Rufeng and Qian Sanyuan had spoken, Yun Xiao's face showed a smile, and he said, "Just keeping the President alive isn't much of an achievement; this time, I want to help him break through to the true Heavenly Realm!"

Yun Xiao's tone contained extreme confidence and a hidden dominance, making the words Qian Sanyuan planned to persuade swallow back into his stomach.

Perhaps Qian Sanyuan couldn't bear to see the President die from backlash either, deciding to give it desperate attention, though he and Qingmu Wu were ready to intervene at any moment.

If anything unexpected happened to Yun Xiao, they would act immediately. At that moment, the coarse-clothed young man had already stepped forward, approaching the strange, black-green mist-shrouded hall.
