"Elder Zhu, we're so far away. Will the poison you just set up really work?" Zou Chengyun asked curiously. He was obviously not confident.
The others couldn't help but look at Elder Zhu.
"Nonsense. Don't you know how many people in the pugilistic world would turn pale at the mention of my Heart-Devouring Bowel Gu?
As long as that kid steps out of the door, he will fall to the ground in less than ten steps. He will suffer the pain of having his guts torn apart. "Elder Zhu snorted coldly. He couldn't hide his pride.
"Wow, Elder Zhu is really straightforward. He's using a killing move right away."
"Hehe, that kid should be honored to die under the ten famous poisonous insects of the Five Poison Sect." The members of the Five Poison Alliance spared no effort in flattering Elder Zhu.
"You're wrong. I didn't mean to kill him." Elder Zhu waved his hand.
"Oh?" The crowd was slightly stunned. If they didn't kill him, how could they get their revenge?
"If it's really as you said, that kid is very skilled in alchemy. Why don't you let him live and let him work for the Five Poison Sect!
At that time, we will have an endless supply of supreme grade pills. As members of the Five Poison Alliance, you will also enjoy the corresponding benefits. Do you understand? "Elder Zhu revealed a proud smile and said bluntly.
"Aha."
Those people were instantly overjoyed. Although there had been some conflicts during the Jiangwu Exchange Meet, they had to consider the long term and let that brat live. Although it was not very realistic for them to obtain the supreme rank panaceas, if the Five Poison Sect became stronger, they would also benefit from it. This was an undeniable fact.
They had seen the kid's alchemy skills with their own eyes. Even an experienced alchemist like Grandmaster Qiu could only feel inferior in front of him.
Just as they were getting excited, they saw a few figures walking out of the entrance of the Charming Women Group …
After Hsieh Shih-chi and Xu Jiaorou's discussion, the preliminary contract was finalized. Xu Jiaorou wanted to treat us to a meal, but Hsieh Shih-chi still had to deal with a series of termination matters. So, after we settled the contract, we bid farewell to Xu Jiaorou. She ran out to see us off.
As soon as I got out of the front door, I sensed danger. I looked around and saw a shadow dashing toward me, blocking my way out.
I had condensed an invisible energy barrier around me. That thing had gone through the barrier when I wasn't paying attention, and had seeped into my body.
"Gu poison again?"
I understood immediately. It was hard to use my energy to block this kind of void substance. If the victim's dantian could resist it, I could force it out. But if the victim couldn't, the parasite would take effect. It would be a life-or-death situation.
From a certain perspective, the poison was indeed cruel. Whether it was the method of cultivation or the characteristic of killing people invisibly, it was despised by the martial arts sects. However, the Five Poison Sect had a long history and hadn't done any evil deeds. Naturally, they couldn't be removed from the sect easily.
I narrowed my eyes. If I wasn't wrong, it should be the doing of the Five Poison Sect. Could it be to avenge the protector?
Although the poison wasn't bad, it was still lacking compared to the Five Sacred Gu.
I narrowed my eyes. No matter who it was, as long as they wanted to harm me, they would have to pay the price.
The destructive power of the poison was still controlled by the Gu Master. After it entered my body, the person hiding in the dark had already started working.
Since I had absorbed the Five Sacred Gu, my body already had a good resistance to poison. Although it hadn't reached the stage where I was immune to all poisons, it was still quite scary.
As far as I knew, there was a special connection between the poison and the Gu Master. This was also why the Five Sacred Gu had suffered a backlash from the pure Yang blood and became the sacrifice for the awakening of the pure Yang blood. Then, the protector of the Five Poison Sect had to pay a terrible price.
I had a flash of inspiration. I might as well use poison to counter poison. In my Dantian, there was the power of the Five Sacred Gu. However, I hadn't studied it thoroughly before, so I didn't dare to use it. Now, it was different. Since the opponent was an expert in using the Gu, I would play with him.
Under my control, the power of the five poisons in the Dantian surged out like a wave. In a short while, it surrounded the 'little earthworm'.
This thing seemed to have a mind of its own as it trembled uneasily. I separated a trace of the power of the five poisons and attacked the body of the little earthworm.
At this moment, on the roof of the building diagonally opposite.
"Slap."
There was a sound that sounded like hitting a cow across a mountain, followed by Elder Zhu's muffled groan. He had originally put on a sage-like posture, but now, there was a shocking scene. His whole body spun two rounds inexplicably, and then he sat on the ground with a terrified expression.
It turned out that the reason why the poison had a mind of its own was because the Gu Master had absorbed a trace of their will. This further bound them and created a special connection. Originally, Elder Zhu had planned to use his famous Heart-Devouring Intestines Gu to spy on the situation of my Dantian. As an extraordinary alchemist, there were some differences in terms of Dantian compared to ordinary martial artists. Alchemists who were full of energy and could refine pills with high efficiency usually had a much larger capacity for their Dantian.
However, before Master Zhu could get what he wanted, his Gu worm had fallen into a situation where it was at the mercy of others. Not only that, but his trace of consciousness couldn't be retrieved under the encirclement of the power of the five poisons.
To put it bluntly, it was like going out on a date. In the beginning, he was having so much fun that he wanted to die. Later on, when he found out that it was a trap, the girl wouldn't give him a chance to pull himself out.
"Slap.
Slap. "There were two more crisp sounds. Master Zhu's body spun in the air and fell heavily on the ground.
"Pfft." Master Zhu spat out a mouthful of blood. He was still in a state of shock.
