Chapter 380: Eat It!
Zuo Liangchen laughed most smugly, even leaning over to Gu Can's side to flatter.
"Gu Clan Leader, what did I say? This Jiang Feng is a fraud who deceives the world and steals fame, truly has no True Skill. Now, frightened by your few words, he fled in panic, truly losing face!"
Gu Can stroked his beard, his face full of arrogant Divine expression.
"Hmph, I told you he's a waste! Doesn't even look at what kind of scum he is, daring to attempt to refine a Poison Pill that can kill me—simply a pipe dream!"
Just as everyone was debating, footsteps came from the direction of Yao Lu.
Everyone instinctively turned to look, and saw Jiang Feng walking out of Yao Lu, still holding several Herbs in his hand.
"He… how did he come back again?"
Someone couldn't help but speak, their face full of Shock.
"Still holding Herbs, could he really be trying to concoct Poison?"
"Impossible, right? Though Gu Can is shameless, his cultivation displayed here, does Jiang Feng really dare to Defy Heaven?"
Everyone's gaze was fixed tightly on Jiang Feng.
Jiang Feng ignored the gazes, walked straight to the Stone table.
He placed the Herbs on the table, then picked up Gu Nantian's dark red Poison Pill, held it in his palm and weighed it.
Then, he took a medicine grinder from Yao Lu, put the Poison Pill into it, and began to grind slowly.
Gu Can's smile froze, his brows slightly furrowed.
This kid still dares to come back and continue refining the Poison Pill?
Does he truly intend to fight him Not Die Not Rest?
Gu Nantian's eyes instantly lit up, staring tightly at Jiang Feng's movements, hope reignited on his face.
Jiang Feng ground earnestly, and before long, the Poison Pill was ground into fine powder.
He didn't immediately add the Herbs, but looked up at Gu Nantian, his Tone flat.
"Your Poison Pill is indeed refined well."
Gu Nantian was stunned for a moment, not expecting Jiang Feng to suddenly praise him.
Jiang Feng's expression remained serious, continuing.
"At a simple glance, any Antidote corresponding to a particular Poison would be neutralized by the other six Poisons, appearing as if no Medicine can cure it, right?"
Gu Nantian subconsciously nodded.
"Exactly! The Seven Deadly Poisons form a cycle, protecting each other; ordinary Antidotes simply cannot break it!"
Jiang Feng, however, shook his head.
"But this is precisely the point where this Poison is easiest to break."
"What?"
Gu Nantian's eyes widened.
"How could that be? The Seven Deadly Poisons cycle repeatedly, their toxicity layers upon layers, how could it be the easiest to break?"
Zuo Liangchen let out a cold laugh, opening his mouth to mock.
"Jiang Feng, stop playing god here! Gu Nantian's Poison Pill mastery, no young generation in the entire Taoyuan Village can match; you, an outsider, what do you know about Medicine? Admit defeat and scram, don't embarrass yourself here!"
Jiang Feng ignored Zuo Liangchen's mockery, continued speaking to Gu Nantian.
"Because your Seven Deadly Poisons have already reached the pinnacle of toxicity, they restrain each other while also promoting each other, forming an extremely delicate balance."
"This balance, without external interference, is indeed unbreakable. Yet once broken, all toxicities lose their outlet, collide, and instead weaken, even dissipating on their own."
Jiang Feng's words were simple and clear, yet most of those present still heard them as clouded fog.
Only Gu Nantian, after hearing Jiang Feng's words, fell into contemplation.
His brows tightly knit, his fingers unconsciously tapping the Stone table.
After a moment, Gu Nantian suddenly lifted his head, a startling brilliance exploding in his eyes, as if he had attained a monumental revelation!
"I understand! I finally understand!"
Gu Nantian shouted excitedly, his voice trembling.
"You mean, my Poison Pill appears invulnerable, but is actually built upon an extremely fragile balance?"
Jiang Feng nodded, said nothing, tacitly agreeing.
Meanwhile, Gu Can, after hearing Jiang Feng and Gu Nantian's conversation, saw his arrogant smile vanish.
His brows tightly furrowed, a barely perceptible shock flashing in his eyes.
As a Dan Dao Master at the Peak of Transforming Spirit Realm, he naturally understood Jiang Feng's deeper meaning better than the others present.
He had previously studied Gu Nantian's Poison Pill, indeed thinking no Medicine could cure it, but after Jiang Feng's words, he realized he had overlooked such a crucial point!
The Seven Deadly Poisons reaching the extreme, balancing each other, is itself the greatest flaw!
Yet a problem even he hadn't noticed, Jiang Feng saw through at a glance?
"This one's understanding of Medicine surpasses mine?"
"Could he truly refine an unbreakable Poison?"
Jiang Feng watched Gu Nantian's excited demeanor, and gave a faint smile.
"You are too attached, thus you dwell in the clouds and fog, unable to see the key point."
"As long as you clear away the clouds and fog, you can see the blue sky."
Having said that, Jiang Feng picked up a plant from the table, placed it without hesitation into a stone mortar, and began crushing it with a stone pestle.
"Hahaha! That cracks me up!"
Gu Can, upon seeing this, was stunned for a moment, then laughed heartily upward.
"Jiang Feng, your clouded fog, I thought you truly possessed some monumental skill, but it turns out you're just an embroidered pillow!"
"Who doesn't know that Purple Soul Grass has virtually no medicinal properties; it's not only non‑poisonous, but actually soothes the properties of other Herbs, acting as a neutralizer."
Gu Can pointed at the Purple Soul Grass powder in the stone mortar, laughing uproariously.
"You use this herb to perfect the Poison Pill? What, you intend to use Purple Soul Grass to alleviate the toxicity and literally boil me to death? Hahaha!"
The people around also burst into laughter, thinking Jiang Feng was completely mad.
"I think he truly doesn't understand the principles of medicine, grabbing a random herb and trying to bluff his way through!"
"Gu Clan Leader is right; he's just an embroidered pillow, only good at talking nonsense!"
Zuo Liangchen laughed so hard his back could not stay straight.
"Jiang Feng, if you claim that Purple Soul Grass can detoxify, you have a few points of credibility, since many Antidote Pills already contain Purple Soul Grass."
"But you say you use it to derive a poison, are you joking with us? You can't possibly have missed the point, can you? Gu Nantian wants a poison that no Medicine can antidote, not a herb that can detoxify!"
The crowd's mocking laughter grew louder, and their gazes at Jiang Feng were full of contempt.
Jiang Feng ignored the crowd's ridicule and continued to busily work on his own.
He poured the crushed Purple Soul Grass powder into the medicine grinder, mixing it with the previously ground Poison Pill powder.
Finally, Jiang Feng began turning the medicine grinder, blending all the powder evenly.
Soon after, the powder in the medicine grinder became uniformly mixed, turning into a dark‑red powder, darker than the original Poison Pill powder.
Jiang Feng stopped his motion and poured the dark‑red powder out of the medicine grinder.
Then he walked up to Gu Can and handed over the oil‑paper packet.
He gave a cold smile.
"You said you don't believe in evil? Come on, eat it."
