"You have been poisoned!"

"Poisoned: Lose 10 health points per second! Lasts for 60 seconds!"

"Due to your toxin antibodies, health loss reduced to 7 points."

Upon receiving this notification, Lin Feng realized that the steel needle was also poisoned!

This was truly a case of misfortune never coming alone.

Just the poison alone could cost him over 400 health points.

His total health was 1,500, and he had already lost 1,000 from the stab earlier. Wasn't he doomed to die now?

Lin Feng felt a bit panicked. He had previously researched online that there were generally three ways to deal with poisoning in "The Grand Martial World."

The first was to use internal energy to control the spread of the toxin, and those with profound internal energy could even eliminate or expel the toxin, which was quite effective.

But the premise was that the toxin wasn't strong and didn't last long; otherwise, no matter how deep your internal energy was, you couldn't withstand it. Moreover, this method required full concentration without any distractions.

Lin Feng was still in battle, so he couldn't afford to be distracted to detoxify.

The second method was rather grim: stopping the spread of the toxin through bloodletting or amputation, but your severed limb wouldn't regenerate afterward. This was the most extreme method, and generally, no one would use it.

The last method was to rely on medication for detoxification, such as detoxification elixirs or specific herbal baths, or using poison to counteract poison, which could also neutralize the toxin.

But at the moment, Lin Feng couldn't use any of these methods.

Amputation? He feared that cutting off his hand would cause more blood loss than the pain from the poison needle...

Fortunately, Lin Feng wasn't without options. He quickly took out the remaining Blood Restoration Pills and stuffed the last three into his mouth.

This was a desperate measure, relying on the restored health to offset the health loss from the poison.

However, the healing time required ten minutes, and he could only ensure that he wouldn't take any more damage afterward; otherwise, even the elixirs might not save him.

Lin Feng took a deep breath. Having hovered on the brink of life and death countless times, his mindset was as steady as an old dog, and he didn't panic.

If he panicked every time he encountered danger, he would have died eight hundred times as a top mercenary.

On the contrary, this extreme sense of impending death stimulated all his organs and nerves into a state of hyperactivity, with adrenaline surging.

Lin Feng steadied his mind and quickly glanced at the opponent's attribute interface. What he saw was astonishing.

...

This was definitely the strongest enemy Lin Feng had encountered so far, excluding Bai Zhantang.

He was almost certain that this Tiansheng Yi was much stronger than the Chief of the Black Wind Stronghold.

Lin Feng couldn't help but recall his previous regret of not having fought a Third Rate Expert on Cuiwei Mountain, and now it had come true so quickly, and the opponent was absurdly strong.

No time for regrets, Tiansheng Yi was already closing in.

Lin Feng didn't dare to be careless and activated Treading on Snow Without a Trace in advance, maximizing his speed and movement technique.

However, Tiansheng Yi's lightness skill was also not weak. Although his lightness skill manual wasn't as strong as Lin Feng's, his attributes were high, and his agility was on par with Lin Feng's.

"Kid, do you think you can escape now? Go to hell!"

With a low shout from Tiansheng Yi, his figure moved like lightning, and he struck with a fierce palm wind as he closed in on Lin Feng.

Lin Feng didn't dare to take it head-on and immediately dodged, but the opponent seemed to have anticipated this, and a hidden arrow shot out from his sleeve!

Lin Feng's eyes narrowed, and he could only rely on rolling on the ground to dodge. Although the posture was ungraceful, he managed to evade.

He guessed that this must be the opponent's 'Cold Yin Arrow Palm,' damn it, so insidious!

Lin Feng sprang to his feet, fully alert, knowing that running away was futile. He decided to stop running and channeled his internal energy into his palms, ready to fight fire with fire.

The two exchanged palm techniques, engaging in several moves within a few breaths.

Lin Feng's Eight Trigrams Wandering Dragon Palm was all about sustained combat, so he wasn't afraid and fought closely with Tiansheng Yi.

Tiansheng Yi realized that his palm technique was inferior to the opponent's. He initially thought that without a weapon, he could easily take down Lin Feng, but he didn't expect him to be a palm technique expert.

After a few more rounds, Tiansheng Yi's palm technique showed signs of defeat, being pushed back by Lin Feng.

Bang! Bang!

"-1450!"

"-1520!"

With two consecutive hits, Lin Feng completely took control of the rhythm.

Tiansheng Yi, in pain, wanted to give up the palm fight and create distance.

His strongest skill wasn't in hand-to-hand combat but in hidden weapons!

As long as he could create distance, he was confident he could easily take Lin Feng down.

But Lin Feng seemed to see through his intentions, sticking to him like a snake, not giving him any space to use hidden weapons.

Tiansheng Yi was now frustrated.

Want to retreat? Lin Feng was like a sticky plaster.

Use lightness skill? Lin Feng's lightness skill was even better, catching up in an instant.

It was like a ranged class being stuck by a melee class, the most frustrating thing for a ranged player, unable to showcase their skills and getting beaten.

Seeing himself getting hit continuously, Tiansheng Yi was furious.

His right palm suddenly glowed with a golden hue, moving several times faster than before.

"Poison Sand Palm!"

As Tiansheng Yi struck, the palm wind carried a golden dust cloud.

Lin Feng's instincts told him that he couldn't take this hit.

He regretfully abandoned the fight and quickly retreated.

Tiansheng Yi wasn't angry when the palm missed, instead showing a mocking smile.

"You're already dead."

As he spoke, Tiansheng Yi had already grabbed three steel needles from his waist and hurled them with internal energy!

The steel needles vanished into the night, leaving only three faint sounds of breaking through the air.

Faced with the same situation as before, Lin Feng knew he absolutely couldn't get hit.

At this moment, he noticed with his peripheral vision that there was a black-clothed person's corpse right under his feet.

Thinking quickly, he kicked the corpse into the air.

The corpse blocked in front of him, and the three steel needles pierced through it.

Although the needles still had power to continue flying, their speed was significantly reduced.

Lin Feng was able to track the needle's trajectory and successfully dodged!

Tiansheng Yi's expression froze, clearly not expecting Lin Feng to dodge in such a manner.

This only fueled his killing intent. Without hesitation, he pulled out more steel needles.

But Lin Feng had already moved to the side as Tiansheng Yi was drawing his needles, because...

There was another corpse in this spot.

Tiansheng Yi shot four steel needles this time, but Lin Feng repeated his trick, kicking the corpse at his feet towards Tiansheng Yi.

The corpse flew through the air, catching all the steel needles. Although the needles pierced through, the corpse greatly reduced their kinetic energy.

This allowed Lin Feng to detect their flight path and easily dodge, while simultaneously looking for the next corpse.

Tiansheng Yi's face turned dark, refusing to believe it, he kept pulling out and shooting steel needles.

Lin Feng, as if playing soccer, kept kicking the corpses on the ground towards the opponent. For a moment, the corpses seemed to come back to life, flying through the air.

Lin Feng wasn't worried about running out of 'corpses.' After all, so many people had died, and the courtyard was full of them.

Whether it was the black-clothed people or the soldiers' corpses, Lin Feng kicked them all without hesitation.

He wouldn't feel any qualms just because they were soldiers' corpses.

As long as it was useful, even if it were Magistrate Lou's corpse, he'd do a Ronaldo-style bicycle kick.
