Am I a Demi-Saint

The results of the poison test spread throughout the Heavenly Poison Island.

All the poison masters were filled with excitement.

Only Yi Feng locked himself in his room, feeling dejected.

Another failure on the path of death meant that all his efforts during this period had gone in vain.

At this moment.

Several high - ranking officials came outside the door.

"Since the poison test ended, Hero Yi thought our research had failed again and has been locking himself in the room, neither eating nor drinking," an old man said.

"Yes, Hero Yi really cares about the world. Despite being at the Half - Saint cultivation level, he lowered his status to come for the poison test,"

Another old man sighed, "And he locked himself in the room, brooding over our research failure."

"Speaking of which, we owe it to Hero Yi's encouragement that we were able to develop the spatial poison that can destroy those at the Proving - Dao Realm this time," another old man said.

"Yes, yes, thanks to Hero Yi's encouragement."

"Now, let's quickly tell Hero Yi this good news," the leading old man said.

"Yes, yes, quickly tell Hero Yi."

"However, could Hero Yi have already known that the poison test was successful?" At this time, the only poison master with relatively shallow qualifications among the group raised a question, "Logically speaking, with Hero Yi's Half - Saint cultivation, wouldn't he be able to sense the intensity of our poison?"

"Not so, not so."

The leading old man smiled mysteriously and explained, "In the past few years, our most important research was on the concealment of this spatial poison, and only later did we focus on its current toxicity.

"Back then, researching the concealment was no easier than what we're doing now. But with everyone's efforts, we've completely overcome the issue of concealment.

"That is to say, when in the poison - filled space, those below the Saint level who can withstand it won't notice anything and will seem as if nothing has happened, while those who can't will simply die on the spot.

"Precisely because of this, we need someone to test the poison to know how strong the poison is while ensuring its concealment. Otherwise, why not just ask the island master to test the poison directly and solve everything?"

"Although Hero Yi is at the Half - Saint level, he's not a true Saint. And this poison is within his tolerance range, so in fact, Hero Yi couldn't feel anything in the poison - testing space."

"Moreover, even for a Saint, if not proficient in the way of poison, they can only sense the existence of the poison. They can't clearly distinguish how strong the poison is and what level of cultivators it poses a threat to."

"So we can only intuitively judge whether our research is successful based on the life or death of the poison tester."

"Speaking of which, we owe it to Senior Fu being injured and poisoned this time. Otherwise, we'd still be in the dark about this research result, and everyone wouldn't know that we've developed such a powerful poison."

The leading old man explained everything in detail.

His words were obvious.

If Fu Nantian hadn't been injured, even though he, as a Saint, could sense the existence of the poison, due to his lack of proficiency in the way of poison, he wouldn't have known what level of cultivators the poison at that time could threaten.

But after being injured, he could tell what kind of force was the last straw that overwhelmed him.

And with this benchmark, they were able to distinguish how strong this spatial poison was.

"So, in terms of Hero Yi's strength, his poison - testing doesn't actually play a big role for us, unless we develop a poison that threatens the Half - Saint level."

"Of course, Hero Yi has good intentions, and he doesn't know the complexity of our work."

"Moreover, thanks to Hero Yi's previous encouragement to us, Senior Fu came here because of him. So, Hero Yi should take the top credit for this major research achievement."

The leading old man laughed heartily.

Hearing this.

The others all nodded.

"Alright, no more nonsense. Let's quickly tell Hero Yi the good news."

Finally, the group knocked on Yi Feng's door.

"We pay our respects to Hero Yi."

The dejected Yi Feng opened the door and saw the group. He forced a smile and greeted them.

"Why have you come?" Yi Feng asked.

"Hero Yi, we're here to tell you a good news," the leading old man smiled. "The result of this poison test is not a failure as you thought, but a major success."

"Huh?"

"Successful?"

Yi Feng looked at them in confusion, thinking they were joking.

"We've concluded that this spatial poison is strong enough to pose a fatal threat to those at the Proving - Dao Realm," the leading old man announced solemnly.

"???"

"Threaten the Proving - Dao Realm?"

Seeing the old man's solemn expression, Yi Feng was completely stunned with a question mark on his face. "Master, are you sure you're not joking?"

"Hero Yi, how could we lie to you about this?" the old man said loudly.

The question mark on Yi Feng's head grew even bigger. He quickly asked, "If you say this spatial poison is strong enough to pose a fatal threat to those at the Proving - Dao Realm, then why am I still alive and well?"

As soon as Yi Feng said this, everyone looked at each other and burst into laughter.

"Hey, why are you laughing?"

Yi Feng was even more confused.

The leading old man showed a meaningful smile and whispered, "Hero Yi, stop pretending. We all know."

"???"

"What do you know?"

Yi Feng kept a straight face, completely in the dark.

"Hero Yi, it's no use pretending anymore," the leading old man said with a smile. "We've long known about your Half - Saint cultivation base."

"What the hell?"

Yi Feng was completely stunned, and his face twitched. "When did I become a Half - Saint?"

"Oh, Hero Yi, just come clean," the leading old man said earnestly. "You emerged unscathed from the toxin - filled space that poses a deadly threat even to those in the Enlightenment Realm. You must be a Half - Saint. Otherwise, you'd have perished long ago."

"Ah?"

Hearing this, Yi Feng's heart skipped a beat.

He began to doubt his own life.

Was he, Yi Feng, a Half - Saint?

Damn it.

Yi Feng got anxious all of a sudden.

He thought he was only at the Realm of Merging with the Dao, but now he was supposed to be a Half - Saint?

This was a mess.

He couldn't even find a way to die at the Realm of Merging with the Dao. If he was a Half - Saint, wouldn't it be even harder to end his life?

"Wait, on what basis do you conclude that your poison can threaten those in the Enlightenment Realm?" Yi Feng asked in a hurry.

"Well, of course, we have our own way of determining it," the old man wouldn't mention that it was because of Fu Nantian. So he just came up with this excuse to fob Yi Feng off, and then added seriously, "Hero Yi, don't doubt it. This conclusion is absolutely true."

Getting this confirmation, Yi Feng felt as if struck by a thunderbolt.

He staggered several steps.

If...

If it was confirmed that the toxin could pose a deadly threat to those in the Enlightenment Realm, and he walked through it unharmed, then it was reasonable to conclude that he was a Half - Saint.

With the cultivation base of a Half - Saint and an impenetrable defense under the level of a Saint...

He originally planned to stay on this island for a while and give these poison masters another chance. But now, it was clearly impossible.

All roads were blocked.

It meant that the only way was to find a Saint to kill him!

Although he knew that saints were about to awaken in the Nine Realms, he also knew that it wouldn't be easy to find one.

Yi Feng's blood pressure soared to his head.

He went into a rage.

He took off at a breakneck speed and plunged headfirst into the sea.

All he wanted now was some peace and quiet...
