Chapter 103: Xuanyuan's Poison Strikes

    

f elder of my sect's pharmacy would be vacant. Now it seems I overthought things!"Although Elder Han gave Xiao Zheng a good evaluation, in everyone's eyes, the mediocre Xiao Zheng did not arouse their...The final result of the Bai Shou Feng summiting expedition, naturally, was that only Jiang Yun successfully completed it.

But now, the disciples are no longer concerned with scaling the peak. Instead, they are amazed by the incredible feats depicted in the Illusory Beast Diagram performed by Elder Jiang Yun.

He who slays Fang Ruolin and commands the beasts, not only dares to face Wan Hongbo, this cultivator of the Heavenly Cave, but also dares to take what belongs to him.

Even at the very last moment, he directly challenged Wan Hongbo and defeated him!

All of this, for all the disciples, was like a myth, even if they saw it with their own eyes, they still found it hard to believe.

Especially that last battle, though none of them saw it, added even more mystery to Jiang Yun's already formidable presence.

But regardless, after this battle, Jiang Yun's popularity and reputation soared to such heights that he successfully replaced Fang Yu Xuan as the top disciple within the Wen Dao Sect!

Even the inner disciples wouldn't dare to disagree with this. There was no way around it; after all, Jiang Yun had the support of all the outer disciples, and Jiang Yun was from Zangfeng Peak. And above Zangfeng Peak there was an old man named Gu Bulao who was so protective that it bordered on outrageous!

Now, everyone is naturally waiting for the summit challenge over the next two days, expecting what kind of shock Jiang Yun will bring them again.

At this very moment, the peak was eerily silent. All four of them, including Gu Bulao, stood together, gazing at Jiang Yun whose face had turned ashen.

Although Jiang Yun ultimately triumphed over Wan Hongbo, he was left exhausted. Moreover, the toxic mist he inhaled had severely weakened his body.

Even for experts like the ancient ones, poisons are a complex and challenging field. They all worry if Jiang Yun can force these poisonous mists out of his body, lest he end up like Xuan Yuan Xing, with a lingering poison forever residing within him.

Luckily, after about half an hour of meditation, a faint green mist began to slowly emerge from Jiang Yun's nose and mouth.

His powerful physique, coupled with the medicinal baths he had soaked in over the years, couldn't be said to make him immune to all poisons. However, ordinary toxins were difficult to harm him.

Seeing the green mist billowing from Jiang Yun's mouth and nose, and his face gradually returning to normal, Dong Fangbo and the others finally let go of their hearts that had been hanging in the air.

Just then, a scream suddenly rang out!

Just as everyone was still nervously watching for Xuanyuan Xing's move, his body suddenly shot up into the air and then crashed heavily to the ground. His entire body instantly covered in a layer of deep purple-black. His tall frame curled up into a ball, his features contorted together, constantly rolling back and forth.

"Bad, it must be the venom of this centipede that has triggered poison within Xuen Yuan Xing's body!"

Gu Bulao's usually ageless face was rarely clouded with a solemn expression. His hands moved continuously, summoning glyphs that resembled tadpoles one after another, pouring into Xuanyuan's body until he gradually calmed down.

Even so, Gu Bulao's face remained grim, his brow even furrowing further. "I still underestimated the poison of the Senro Ghost Prison," he muttered gravely. "I didn't expect it to be this potent, barely half a year and I'm already struggling to contain it! Looks like I have to make a trip to the Yaoshensong."

At the same time, Jiang Yun finally exhaled the last wisp of poison from his body, turned over and stood up. Looking at Xuen Yuan Xing, whose expression was gradually returning to calm, a heavy worry appeared on his face as well.

Before this, he had no idea that even the Third Senior Brother was poisoned, and this poison was something that even Gu Bulao couldn't resolve.

After a moment's hesitation, Jiang Yun boldly said to the ancient master, "Master Gu, could you let me take a look at Third Senior Brother's poison"

This sentence caused Dongfang Bo and the other two to be taken aback for a moment. Even Gu Bulao's eyes flashed with a hint of strangeness, but he nodded and said, "Be careful!"

Jian Yun walked to Xuan Yuan's side, placed his hand on Xuan Yuan's pulse, and softly said, "Third Senior Brother, I apologize, I need to take a bit of your blood."

Xuan Yuan Xing laughed cheerfully: "It's fine, even if you drain all my blood, it doesn't matter!"

Jiang Yun remained silent. He took out the Thunderclap Sword from his bosom and lightly drew it across Xuanyuan Xing's wrist, squeezing out a drop of purple-black blood.

This fresh blood immediately emitted a thick, pungent metallic odor. Just smelling this scent caused Dongfang Bo and Situ Jing's heads to spin, making it clear how powerful this poison was.

Although Jiang Yun also frowned slightly, his reaction was not as intense. Gu Bulao flicked his sleeve, and a gust of wind instantly dispersed the surrounding odors.

After staring intently at the drop of blood for a long time, Jiang Yun suddenly brought his nose close to it. This scene immediately took Dong Fangbo and the others by surprise. Xuan Yuanxing even hurriedly retracted his wrist and shouted, "Don't!"

Jiang Yun smiled faintly and said, "It's nothing, Third Senior Brother, I have it under control!"

Xuan Yuan's gaze turned to Gu Bulao, finding that his master nodded slightly. He hesitated for a moment before extending his wrist again, allowing Jiang Yun to approach and draw closer to the drop of blood on it.

"...Forest grasses, azure cloud serpent saliva, thousand-year-old bamboo juice..."

Next, word after word came out of Ginger Cloud's mouth. Even Gu Bulao's face, usually calm and collected, showed growing astonishment. As for Dongfang Bo and the others, they were utterly speechless.

They never expected that Jiang Yun not only had outstanding talent in cultivation, but also surprisingly knew about poisons!

What's even more amazing is that he didn't need to see, relying solely on his sense of smell, he could identify the ingredients contained within the poison!

Until now, they, even the entire Wudao Sect, didn't know that Jiang Yun was an alchemist!

As an alchemist, one must also understand poisons. This is because many materials themselves are inherently poisonous, and the process of refining elixirs can easily turn them into toxins if the quantities are not precise.

Especially when Jiang Yun was in Mangshan, the forest was filled with poisonous plants and animals. One could easily be poisoned if they were not careful. So, Jiang Yun had put a lot of effort into researching poisonous things, just so he could better help the people of Jiang Village detoxify.

When Jiang Yun listed dozens of materials from his mouth, he gently shook his head and said, "This poison is too complex. I can only identify these materials based on their smell. Unless I am poisoned myself, perhaps I could know all the ingredients and find a way to antidote it."

Absolutely not!

Xuan Yuan Xing hesitantly retracted his wrist again, shaking his head repeatedly. Dong Fang Bo and the others were in a similar state, they certainly didn't want Jiang Yun to try the poison with his own body.

Ginger Cloud naturally knew that the three were well-intentioned. After thinking for a moment, he said: "Three Senior Brothers, give me your drop of fresh blood. Spend some time, maybe I can analyze all the materials inside."

Besides tasting poison himself, Ginger Cloud naturally has other methods.

However, Xuan Yuan Xing still shook his head and said, "That's not possible either. Who knows if you might get hotheaded and swallow my drop of blood."

"Don't worry, I would never!"

After Xuanyuan Xing swore an oath almost like a curse, and Gu Bulao agreed, Xuanyuan Xing could only agree. He watched as Jiang Yun carefully stored the drop of blood in a jade bottle.

At this moment, Gu Bulao suddenly raised his eyes and looked at Jiang Yun, saying: "Actually, there's no need to go through so much trouble. As far as I know, the Medicine God Sect should be able to cure this poison. Jiang Yun, if you make it past the five peaks, would you be willing to go to the Medicine God Sect and seek a cure for Xuanyuan Xing"
