Within the Five Poison Sect Headquarters, the poisonous mist rising from the bronze cauldron tinged the sunlight a bizarre green.
Zhusa Po's crimson whip lashed out like a venomous serpent, aiming directly for Lan Xiaodie's throat with a sharp, slicing sound. The crimson light at the tip flickered menacingly like a snake's tongue. "Refusing to repent!" Lan Xiaodie's voice rang clear as she lightly tapped the poison-misted tiles, drawing her Green Phosphorus Sword with a dragon's roar that echoed through the valley.
The sword's ethereal blue glow intertwined with the Five Poison Totems, creating a dazzling arc. As the whip collided with the sword's edge, sparks flew, and the crimson whip shattered into countless pieces of red fragments.
Instantly, a rolling green smoke surged from the bronze cauldron at the sect's headquarters, sending Zhusa Po stumbling against a stone pillar engraved with serpent totems, black blood trickling from her mouth in sinister patterns on the bricks.
