Chapter 411: Si Tu Yu's Mother Still Cannot Purge Corpse Rot Poison

~8 min read 1,447 words

The black powder in the bottle is corpse rot poison; its toxicity is not strong, but it should be a low‑grade corpse rot poison.

Jiang Chen has dealt with many corpses in the Fusishi Jie, so he is not unfamiliar with this toxin.

This corpse rot poison should have been obtained from Si Tu Yu's mother.

Jiang Chen asked softly, "Senior Medicine God, what do you intend to do?"

Chu Ping replied, "I cannot analyze the origin of the Skill, so I plan to start from the Purge process of the corpse rot poison."

Jiang Chen's expression changed instantly, "You want to test the poison on my Skeleton?"

Jiang Chen's reaction made Chu Ping somewhat surprised, "Divine General Jiang, do you find this improper?"

Jiang Chen's face turned sour, displeasure in his eyes, his voice a little low: "Skeletons are my comrades; they may die in battle, but they are never tools for experiments. If the Medicine God needs my assistance, I will help without hesitation. If you intend to use my comrades as test subjects, that is impossible."

Jiang Chen said it plainly, without any mercy.

Chu Ping did not expect Jiang Chen to value his Skeletons so highly.

In his understanding, Jiang Chen's Skeleton count was innumerable.

Si Tu Yu had mentioned that in the Fusishi Jie, Jiang Chen's Undead Legion was almost completely wiped out.

He thought Jiang Chen treated Skeletons as Summoned Entities, tools for combat.

However, Jiang Chen regarded Skeletons as his comrades, a sentiment that surprised Chu Ping.

Although many Summoners view their Summoned Entities this way, Chu Ping seemed to underestimate Jiang Chen's feelings toward the Skeletons.

He could understand this feeling; many Summoners are like that, their Summoned Entities are family, their closest partners.

If one were to take their Summoned Entities

as test subjects, the outcome would be endless undead.

Si Tu Yu's face showed anxiety, and Chu Yao held her hand, signaling her not to worry.

She knew her grandfather surely had another method.

Chu Ping, with a hint of apology, said, "I was presumptuous, Divine General Jiang, please forgive me."

The tone was sincere, without any affectation.

Jiang Chen took a deep breath, "It's fine. Is there anything else I can help with? As long as they aren't harmed, we can discuss it."

Chu Ping thought for a moment, "I have another method that might be worth trying; I guarantee it will not harm Divine General Jiang's Summoned Entities."

As long as the Undead Legion is not harmed, Jiang Chen has no objection.

Chu Ping took out a bottle of medicine and poured it onto the Skeleton Berserker.

As he poured, he said, "This is a Skill Absorb Medicine I have developed. It can absorb various Skills, whether supportive or offensive, and store them."

"When needed, they can be released again."

He did not expect such a medicine to exist.

Jiang Chen suddenly thought of the usage of the Skill Absorb Medicine, "Does this medicine have any limitations?"

Chu Ping replied, "There are naturally limitations; for example, Divine Level skills cannot be stored. Some special skills also cannot be stored, such as …"

Jiang Chen asked, "Can the Primordial Rune skills be stored?"

Chu Ping shook his head, "It should not be possible; the Primordial Rune skill tier is too high, already beyond the scope of Divine Level skills."

He had long guessed the outcome, and Jiang Chen was not disappointed.

Being unable to store it is normal.

The medicine had been poured over its entire body, covering the Skeleton Berserker with a layer of green.

Jiang Chen indeed did not sense any harm to the Skeleton Berserker; this layer of medicine

The medicine merely covered the surface of the Skeleton Berserker's body and did nothing.

"Divine General Jiang, please cast the Purge Skill again."

Jiang Chen hummed, and with a thought, the Lich General cast the Purge Skill again.

Under the Purge Skill, the green on the Skeleton Warrior faded quickly.

After a few casts, the Skeleton Warrior returned to normal, and the medicine vanished completely.

Chu Ping's eyes showed shock, "How could this happen? Even my Skill Absorb Medicine was purged."

The Purge Skill removes various abnormal states.

As long as the level does not exceed the skill limit, any abnormal state can be removed.

Chu Ping's Skill Absorb Medicine was also treated as an abnormal state and was purged by the skill.

This situation was completely beyond Chu Ping's expectation.

After pondering, he arrived at an answer, "It seems the Lich General's skill works from the inside out; this skill is truly peculiar."

Jiang Chen thought this possibility plausible; the Lich General's skill is indeed unique.

Chu Ping could not think of any other method at that moment.

Jiang Chen said, "If there's nothing else, I will take my leave now."

Chu Ping said, "Today I have truly troubled Divine General Jiang; Chu Yao, on behalf of the grandfather, see off Divine General Jiang."

Chu Yao hummed and led Jiang Chen away.

Before leaving, Jiang Chen glanced at Si Tu Yu, "Has your Si Tu family not prepared the compensation yet? Are you not planning to pay?"

Si Tu Yu shivered all over; at that moment, she found Jiang Chen somewhat frightening.

Si Tu Yu hurriedly said, "There have been many family matters these days; my father and the others will arrive in a few days."

Jiang Chen nodded, "My master is waiting."

Chu Yao escorted Jiang Chen away, disappearing from view.

Si Tu Yu's eyes were filled with tears,

"Medicine God Grandfather, is my mother truly beyond saving?"

Chu Ping shook his head, "Fusishi poison is the strangest toxin I've ever encountered; so far, apart from Divine General Jiang's Lich General, there is no other way to neutralize it."

Si Tu Yu said anxiously, "But his Skeleton won't let you conduct experiments."

Chu Ping sighed, "That's normal; a Summoned Entity is the closest companion for most Summoners. As Divine General Jiang said, they fight side by side—Summoned Entities may die in battle, but they cannot be used for experiments."

"Girl, think about it—if someone used your mother for an experiment, how would you react."

Si Tu Yu replied without hesitation, "I would fight to the death, but he has so many Skeletons."

Chu Ping smiled, "The number doesn't matter. I'll think of a way to handle your mother's poison; at least within the Ice Sealing Formation the situation is relatively stable, and there is no immediate danger to life."

"Divine General Jiang also promised you; as long as he has the ability, he'll definitely rescue her. Knowing his character, he keeps his word."

Si Tu Yu still wore a worried brow, "But when will that be?"

Chu Ping said calmly, "It won't be long; once he reaches Divine Level, it should be about right."

"Really? I have no idea when he'll reach Divine Level."

"Fast—at his leveling speed, it won't take long."

Chu Yao's face bore guilt, "I'm sorry, Junior Jiang. I didn't expect Grandfather to make such a request."

Jiang Chen said lightly, "It has nothing to do with you; perhaps Senior Medicine God doesn't understand the bond between me and the Skeletons, maybe he thinks I have too many Skeletons and they're just tools."

Chu Yao looked at

Jiang Chen, cautiously, said, "You won't be angry, right?"

Jiang Chen smiled faintly, "Not that much; the ignorant are not guilty, I'm not that petty."

Chu Yao breathed a sigh of relief, "That's good, that's good."

Chu Yao asked again, "Don't be angry at Yu Gongzhu; she was also trying to save her mother. The last time she caused you to fall into Fusishi Jie, it wasn't her intention."

Mentioning Si Tu Yu, Jiang Chen's voice grew slightly cold, "I understand; I promised her that when I'm able, I'll return to rescue her mother."

Jiang Chen's words will naturally be fulfilled.

After returning to Shenlong University, Jiang Chen received a message from Lin Cai'er.

"I'm going to the Trial!" That's all she said—no mention of how long or where.

Actually being born into such a great clan isn't necessarily great.

Resources are indeed abundant and leveling is fast, but it's far more exhausting than ordinary people, with greater pressure.

Just look at Yi Ning; even someone like Princess Si Tu Yu isn't necessarily at ease.

Back in the Dungeon Hall, Jiang Chen entered the "Beast God Plateau" Instance alone and began a Solo Run.

Before Level 50, the "Beast God Plateau" Instance is the best place to train.

Jiang Chen plans to reach Level 50 as soon as possible, then head to the Ancient Battlefield to see that mysterious and terrifying being.
