Chapter 1398: Chapter 1398

Du You had no intention of leaving this place and decided to use the highly toxic environment here to evolve his skills, believing the effect would be even better.

Under Du You’s urging, Lin Yucha began to evolve her new skill, and at this time, the Heavenly Disaster Demonic Dogs had returned. They also brought back a tree core broken into three sections.

The tree core belonged to the remains of a Highly Toxic Willow Tree, carrying a faint golden color—this Magic Gold Deadly Poison was no joke.

With this item, they could prove they had taken down the toxic willow.

Not much time passed before Lin Yucha’s new skill was fully honed, and the cost was not too high.

Magic Gold Deadly Poison: Passive enhancement of toxic skills, turning toxins into Magic Gold Deadly Poison. Toxin level ×1, reducing poison resistance by 5 every second for the duration, minimum of 0. If the enemy’s poison resistance exceeds one’s own level, at most reduce by 10. (Level 56, 9-star)

This natural tier-four skill had changed after being honed and was different from before.

"Not bad, a very good skill. If the enemy’s Poison Resistance is weaker than your deadly poison, then in just a few seconds their resistance will drop to 0, and most opponents will be easily poisoned to death. Even if their Poison Resistance is stronger than the toxicity, after reducing by 10, it might not be anymore, they will still get poisoned, possibly even poisoned to death."

"In that case, can’t we use it to deal with tier-seven powerhouses now?" Lin Yushi said excitedly.

"How is that possible, the resistance of tier-seven powerhouses is not ordinary Poison Resistance anymore; it should be a higher level of resistance, and their physiques have also changed. This kind of toxicity is probably useless."

Lin Yucha retorted without good temper, indicating that if a skill’s effect alone could deal with tier-seven powerhouses, then they wouldn’t have much value and would have been hunted down everywhere. But in reality, tier-seven entities remained powerful beings beyond the reach of tier-six.

"Yucha is right, tier-seven is not something you can handle with just one skill. Below tier-seven, this skill might allow for overcoming challenges beyond one’s tier, but it’s absolutely impossible against tier-seven."

After pondering, Du You said, "Try it out quickly, see the effect of this skill’s inherent toxicity."

Lin Yucha nodded, and after testing, Du You found that Lin Yucha’s Explosive Poison Snipe now emitted a toxin that was no longer the original green color, but had turned pale gold. If there was enough sunlight, it would even be inconspicuous.

"Great, the toxicity has not weakened, just as I said." Lin Yushi said very happily.

Indeed, the toxicity had not weakened. The passive skill’s own toxicity was too weak, only having the basic toxicity corresponding to the level, relying entirely on reducing the enemy’s Poison Resistance to take effect.

Although this effect was strong, after all, it could not compensate for the fact that the inherent toxicity was weak.

Fortunately, the stacking of two skills was enhanced to the greatest power, something the Professional’s interface did quite well. Although the toxin turned pale gold, its toxicity did not weaken in the slightest, nor did it strengthen.

But it didn’t matter, the toxicity of Explosive Poison Snipe was already very strong. If it weren’t for the fact that the enemies they were facing now had increasingly higher Poison Resistance, making this move less effective and unable to kill enemies quickly, it wouldn’t have been kept hidden for so long. To speak of it, Lin Yucha had not properly used Explosive Poison Snipe for a long time.

Now, combined with the passive skill, it could once again unleash great attacking power.

"What a pity, my focus is on sniping, emphasizing single-target attack effects. Explosive Poison Snipe can condense the toxicity to attack only one target, but compared to Spiral Snipe, it is still somewhat inferior."

Lin Yucha herself was not too thrilled; the skill could compensate for her shortcomings but could not enhance her strengths. In Lin Yucha’s view, increasing her and her sister’s strengths was the best choice to play their roles. After all, Du You’s overall strength was too strong; without developing her strengths, it would be difficult to assist her master.

Du You had no idea what Lin Yucha was thinking, but as long as her strength increased, he would be happy. Looking at the sky, it was already late, so Du You said, "We’ll rest here tonight, and tomorrow we’ll go find the next target."

There were no plans to fight the enemy overnight, although the distinction between night and day had already become negligible, but Du You was still accustomed to resting at night and rarely fought all night long.

Early the next morning, after breakfast, Du You and the sisters flew towards the location of their next target. This time’s target was the Swamp Crocodile, or more precisely, a tribe.

When Du You and the others arrived, they found the crocodiles all basking in the sun together.

"Two tier-sixes, more than a dozen tier-fives, very good, most of them are here. This tribe is quite large, with a full thousand Crocodiles. We just need to deal with the main two, no need for us to handle the rest."

Du You knew what he had to do. And these Crocodiles were indeed large, especially the two tier-six Crocodiles, measuring more than thirty meters in length — one can imagine how much they could eat.

If the Swamp Crocodiles didn’t have a complicated food source and solely ate Swamp Dwarves, it would hardly be enough to satisfy them.

"Yucha, try out your new skill. These creatures are supposedly strong in conventional defense, but maybe not so much against toxicity. If it doesn’t work, I’ll step in."

Du You had high hopes for the new skill but needed to test it first. In fact, both Lin Yucha’s and Lin Yushi’s attacks could not be considered purely physical attacks, as their arrows were condensed from energy, with Lin Yushi refining her arrows into Thunder and Lightning, completely magical attacks. Lin Yucha was slightly better off, but it was also a multi-type attack.

In this respect, they were completely different from the natives here. The Swamp Dwarves’ attacks utilized a strength similar to Dou Qi, which did not belong to magical attacks but rather resembled the effects of physical attacks.

Lin Yucha nodded, then drew her bow and arrow, aiming downwards. The sense of these Swamp Crocodiles was not very strong; they were completely oblivious to being targeted, still lazily basking in the sun.

But at that moment, two arrows fell from the sky, with the golden arrows breaking through the spatial divide, directly hitting two crocodiles. At this moment, the two Swamp Crocodiles had not realized they were being attacked. By the time they realized it, the two crocodiles had grown angry and roared with their mouths agape.

However, what they didn’t notice was the spread of the pale golden poison fog. As they opened their mouths, they directly swallowed a lot of poison fog, and that was it—the toxins that were acting outside of their bodies had now directly entered their bodies.
