Chapter 229: Poison Shakes All Living Beings, Taboo Extinguishes All Generations

~16 min read 3,135 words

Xu Qing gazed at the Wish Box, his eyes blooming with strange light.

He had heard Wu Wu Jianwu say before that anything could possibly appear inside a Wish Box. A good one could open up an Imperial-grade inheritance, while a bad one could possibly be a withered tree leaf.

What exactly could be opened depended entirely on luck.

And this first opening actually had both an elixir and a jade slip. Based on Xu Qing's previous understanding, this was already considered extremely good luck.

At this moment, he calmed his mind and was just about to pick up the jade slip to check it.

But right at this moment, Xu Qing's expression suddenly changed. He slammed his hand down with a crack, directly slamming the Wish Box shut. While isolating the aura inside, his entire body turned black to the naked eye.

"Poison?" Xu Qing's eyes narrowed.

It wasn't just his physical body; even his internal organs were like this at this moment, as if they were about to rot. Especially what made Xu Qing

surprised was that he didn't feel any pain at all.

Whether it was inside his body or his flesh and blood, there wasn't the slightest abnormality. It was as if this pitch-black and withered state was just an illusion. Even his instincts and the magic power in his body didn't notice anything.

But whether looking with the naked eye or based on Xu Qing's understanding of the Dao of Poison, it made him incomparably certain that the poison he had been struck with was no small matter.

"What kind of poison is this?" Xu Qing muttered, and the flesh on his face began to fall off, dropping off in chunks with a large amount of blood.

Not just on his face; at this moment, his entire body was like this.

But even so, he still didn't have any sensation.

Xu Qing pondered, lowered his head to check his entire body with his naked eye. The whole process lasted for a full stick of incense's time. Under the recovery of the purple crystal,

although Xu Qing's entire body was rotting, the recovery was also very fast.

Just like that, after a stick of incense, the rotting sensation dissipated. After another stick of incense passed, Xu Qing's entire body was surrounded by purple light, and he began to recover bit by bit. Until half an hour later, his body recovered as before.

Xu Qing held his breath, looked down at the Wish Box, and deep light appeared in his eyes.

"Is this a poison elixir?"

"A poison elixir sealed for countless years. Just the aura it emits is enough to make people's bodies and spirits perish." After pondering, Xu Qing reopened the Wish Box.

Even with the purple crystal, the effect of this poison was too astonishing. Xu Qing didn't dare to try picking up the poison elixir directly to check it. He was worried

that if he touched it now, perhaps the purple crystal's recovery would be slightly slow, unable to keep up with the speed of the poison's onset. By that time, everything would be dangerous.

But his attainments in the Dao of Poison were not shallow, and he knew how to handle such things. At this moment, after pondering, he looked down at the opened Wish Box. After a short while, he closed it, and the rotting of his body began again.

"Generally speaking, if you are struck by a type of poison many times, you will develop a certain anti-poison reaction."

Xu Qing muttered, not paying attention to the rotting of his entire body. He grabbed with his hand, and immediately from the medicine shelf on the side, he took a large amount of herbs and began to concoct an elixir targeting the symptoms according to the state of his body at this moment.

Xu Qing didn't know the main ingredient of this poison, so he couldn't talk about detoxifying it. What he did was to prescribe the right medicine for the illness. Since this poison caused rotting, then

he

would make medicine for vitality and blood to alleviate it.

Soon, as the medicinal juice formed, Xu Qing swallowed it in one gulp. Until this wave of poison onset dissipated, he followed the same pattern, opening the Wish Box to try many times. Finally, a night passed, and when the sky broke at dawn, Xu Qing finally developed some anti-poison power.

Only then did he wear gloves, carefully took out the jade slip, and integrated his magic power to check it. Soon, a vicissitudinous voice, carrying weakness,

echoed in Xu Qing's mind from this jade slip.

"What is the Great Dao?"

"The three thousand Great Daos can all become saints. Can there be a Dao of Poison within them?"

"The world disdains the sinister and fierce, disdains poison and evil, regarding them as rules of the minor path, difficult to achieve great things?"

"I also once thought so, spitting on the methods of poison and evil, until one day I killed an alien race that walked out of the Divine Domain. This cultivator's combat power was heaven-toppling, and the Dao he cultivated was incomparably sinister. Before dying, he stared with poisonous eyes, causing my cultivation to drop by a major realm in one day, and after ten days, I turned into a mortal, experiencing sixty years of time in the mortal world, suffering endless pain and torture, spending countless heavenly materials and earthly treasures, finally barely surviving, and refining this poison out of my body, turning it into a pill."

"From then on, I studied this pill, until the catastrophe descended, but I never succeeded, leaving a half-finished object for future generations."

"This pill is poison, and it is also a taboo! If a high-level cultivator obtains it, they must not use it themselves, or they will be doomed eternally, definitely dying without a doubt. They need to find a low-level cultivator in the Tiangong Golden Core Realm, and make them replace the Golden Core in their Tiangong with this poison pill, becoming a unique cultivator of poison pills."

"Only in this way can they change their divine soul and make themselves walk on this path of the Taboo Pill!"

"According to my deduction, the path of the Taboo Pill uses poison to shake all living beings and taboo to extinguish all generations. It is terrifying and terrible, perhaps a method of the unfathomable Divine Domain, and the Divine Domain will eventually be the enemy of all races!"

Xu Qing's mind stirred up huge waves. He stared at the jade slip in his hand, his eyes shrinking. His body appeared to be rotting again at this moment.

Xu Qing closed his eyes and silently savored the content of the jade slip, while the purple crystal was also shining, resisting the poison in his body.

Just like that, the day passed, and night descended. When the bright moon was in the sky, Xu Qing opened his eyes.

While his body was constantly resisting the strange poison in the Wish Box, his ability to resist poison improved a bit more, so he carefully opened the Wish Box again and gazed at the black pill.

Even with gloves on, Xu Qing still didn't dare to touch it.

"This is a peerless poison pill from the previous era. It's not for people to eat, but to refine it and become one's own Golden Core."

A flash of brilliance appeared in Xu Qing's eyes. He observed carefully, closing it many times during the process, until his body recovered and adapted somewhat,

then opened it again to continue studying.

Until the sky was bright, after a night of many studies, Xu Qing finally saw some clues.

In his view, this poison pill was a Great Dao opportunity, and even more so the key to the Golden Core Realm, and it was completely different from the Golden Core Realm of this era. Once he really used this pill to cultivate, then the lethality would definitely be shocking.

It was just that the process was extremely dangerous and difficult.

Xu Qing was thoughtful, recalling the description in the jade slip. Although he was not in the Golden Core Realm now, the distance was not so far that it was unreachable.

"It's a pity that this pill is only a half-finished product, and it has experienced the baptism of time, causing the elixir to appear withered."

With Xu Qing's attainments and understanding of poison, he naturally saw that this black poison pill itself was already in a withered state. If he wanted to make it reach a level where it could be used, he needed to re-refine it.

And this process of re-refining was also the stage of his own research and understanding of this pill.

"Re-refining the poison pill, activating it, requires a large amount of poison!" Xu Qing sealed the jade box, carefully put it away, and then let out a sigh of relief, his heart full of expectation.

He felt that the item he opened from the Wish Box this time was definitely considered to be of an extremely excellent level.

This made him have even greater interest in the other Wish Box that hadn't finished nourishing yet.

"I wonder when the war rewards will be issued." To re-refine this pill, he needed a massive amount of spirit stones to buy various poisonous herbs and refining materials, which made the financially strapped Xu Qing start to look forward to the arrival of the war rewards.

But the war reparations from the Sea Corpse Clan hadn't been sent yet, so the sect hadn't issued them either. Helpless, Xu Qing took out his identity jade slip and checked the sect's archives for the past few days.

Upon seeing this, Xu Qing's eyes suddenly narrowed.

These past few days, he had been immersed in the study of the poison taboo pill and hadn't paid attention to the outside world. He didn't know that in these few days, several major events had happened in the sect that shocked all the disciples and even caused emotional fluctuations among the disciples of each peak.

This major event was related to the prodigies of the Seven Sect Alliance visiting!

A few days ago, the prodigies of the Seven Sect Alliance arrived with great momentum. Their arrival had already attracted the attention of the disciples of each peak of the Seven Blood Eyes, and their way of appearing as well as their own stunning brilliance made them even more eye-catching.

And next, on the second day of their arrival, these Seven Sect prodigies seemed to be carrying some tasks and missions, and actually began to challenge the Highnesses of each peak of the Seven Blood Eyes one after another!

Like establishing prestige!

Among them, especially that Sheng Qing Yunzi of the Ancestor Lingyun Sword Sect. As the number one prodigy of the Seven Sect Alliance's current generation and the Chief Sequence, his cultivation suppressed all cultivators of the same realm.

His fame was so great that it had spread not only in the Yinghuang Prefecture but also to other prefectures of the Fenghai County. And what he challenged was the First Peak.

The First Peak of the Seven Blood Eyes was precisely from the Ancestor Lingyun Sword Sect where this Sheng Qing Yunzi belonged.

And on that day, after this Sheng Qing Yunzi ascended the First Peak and met the ancestor and the First Peak Master, he proposed to challenge the First Peak's Great Highness.

But the First Peak's Great Highness was in seclusion to break through to the Golden Core Realm and couldn't fight, so the Second Highness of the First Peak, who was at the Great Perfection of Qi Condensation, accepted the challenge.

In this battle, Sheng Qing Yunzi used only one strike to shatter all the bones of the First Peak's Second Highness. While losing half his life, his foundation was also largely crippled.

Even a Golden Core Elder who tried to intervene couldn't save him. When he collided with this Sheng Qing Yunzi in mid-air, he was actually blasted back more than a hundred feet.

This scene shocked the entire Seven Blood Eyes. Especially when he struck that Golden Core Elder, this Sheng Qing Yunzi had all four life fires fully opened, and his Life Lamp was ignited, forming the combat power of five fires. Combined with his Imperial-grade cultivation technique, he actually reached the shocking combat power of six fires in an instant.

This kind of combat power was already a legendary existence in Qi Condensation. Countless people could only look up to it but couldn't reach it. He could be deservedly called one of the top prodigies of the Qi Condensation of all races, rarely seen in the current era.

The saying of "Ancient Emperor's Talent" also spread throughout the Southern Wasteland Continent because of this battle, making the disciples of each peak of the Seven Blood Eyes have to feel a sense of powerlessness.

Too strong.

At the same time, several other prodigies from the Seven Sect Alliance also challenged the branch peaks of their respective sects. They were far from having the momentum of Sheng Qing Yunzi suppressing a peak by himself.

In these challenges, there were both wins and losses, but overall, the prodigies of the Seven Sect Alliance were still a cut above. However, this kind of challenge didn't happen to all peaks; the Seventh Peak was rarely not challenged.

But one peak didn't represent one sect, so for a time, the Seven Blood Eyes was clearly the winner of the Sea Corpse Clan battle and was in the midst of celebrating, but it felt stifled.

And this challenge was also witnessed by the various clans coming and going. The formidable nature of the Seven Sect Alliance was also revealed this time.

Anyone could see very clearly that the Seven Sect Alliance was here this time to knock them down and establish prestige! It wasn't comparing high-end combat power.

Because high-end combat power didn't need to be compared.

Even though Xue Xue Lianzi had astonishing talent and unfathomable opportunities, and his cultivation had actually broken through from the Spirit Repository Realm to the Return to Void Great Realm, the same as the ancestor of any of the Seven Sects, he was only one person.

The Seven Sect Alliance's high-end combat power was not just seven people. Most importantly, these seven sects had Taboo Magic Treasures!

Therefore, high-end combat power went without saying. So this time, the high-level members of the Seven Sect Alliance didn't come, but sent their respective prodigy disciples, wanting to suppress all the disciples of the Seven Blood Eyes' current generation and plant a seed of inability to resist in their hearts.

Xu Qing saw this very clearly, but this matter had nothing to do with him. He was not a Highness. Although he had done big things and became a Sequence, he was not the main culprit of that matter. With so many Highnesses around, naturally, no one paid attention to him.

Just like that, days passed. With the continuous challenges of the Seven Sect prodigies, the momentum rose all the way, and the disciples of the Seven Blood Eyes all felt suppressed. Late one night, Xu Qing, who was studying the poison pill, suddenly raised his head. In his voice transmission jade slip, there was a request from the Criminal Capture Division.

"My Lord, in Port 79, a large number of Night Doves have gathered to trade with people. The person coming to trade is suspected to be the prodigy of the Lieyi Gate of the Seven Sect Alliance, Prince Sima Ling!"

"How should we handle this? Please decide, My Lord!" ===== CHAPTER 230 =====

At the same time, several other heaven-chosen from the various sects of the Seven Sect Alliance also challenged the branch sect mountain peaks belonging to their respective sects, but they were far from

having the momentum of Shengyunzi, who suppressed a peak all by himself.

In these challenges, there were both wins and losses, but overall, the heaven-chosen of the Seven Sect Alliance were still a cut above. However, these challenges were not

held at all peaks; the Seventh Peak was rarely not challenged.

But one peak does not represent one sect, so for a time, although the Seven Blood Eyes had clearly won the battle against the Sea Corpse Clan and were in the midst of celebrating,

they nevertheless felt a sense of grievance.

And this challenge was also witnessed by the various clans coming and going; the formidable nature of the Seven Sect Alliance was also revealed during this time.

Anyone could see very clearly that the Seven Sect Alliance was here this time to knock them down a peg and establish their prestige! They were not comparing high-end combat power.

Because there was no need to compare high-end combat power.

Even though Xue Xue Lianzi had astonishing aptitude and possessed unfathomable opportunities, his cultivation base had actually broken through from the Spirit Repository Realm to the same

Great Realm of Gui Xu as the ancestors of any of the seven sects, but he was only one person.

The high-end combat power of the Seven Sect Alliance was not just seven people; most importantly, these seven sects possessed taboo magic treasures!

Therefore, the high-end combat power went without saying, so this time, the high-level members of the Seven Sect Alliance did not come, but instead sent their respective heaven-chosen disciples,

wanting to suppress all the disciples of this generation of the Seven Blood Eyes and plant a seed of inability to resist in their hearts.

Xu Qing saw this very clearly, but this matter had nothing to do with him. He was not a Prince, and although he had once done great things and become a Sequence, he was not the main culprit of that incident. With so many Princes around, naturally, no one paid him any mind.

Just like that, time passed day by day. With the successive challenges of the Seven Sect heaven-chosen, their momentum rose all the way, and the disciples of the Seven Blood Eyes all felt

suppressed. Late one night, Xu Qing, who was researching poison elixirs, suddenly raised his head. Within his sound-transmission jade slip, there was a message from the Criminal Investigation Department requesting orders.

"My lord, at the 79th Port, a large number of Night Doves have gathered to trade. The person who came to trade is suspected to be the heaven-chosen of the Hunting Alien Gate of the Seven Sect Alliance, Prince Sima Ling!"

"How should we handle this? Please decide, my lord!"
