Chapter 505: This Is Impossible, You Too Have Things You Don

Antares is still drowsy, his eyelids trembling slightly, as if still saying a final goodbye to the dream.

He has not fully awakened yet, but a hint of anticipation flickers in his eyes.

Not far away, a temporal vortex slowly forms, emitting a familiar Dragon Pearl aura.

Jiang Chen is about to return, bearing the Dragon Pearl that belongs to Antares.

A moment later, Jiang Chen's figure appears from the vortex.

At this moment, Antares closes his eyes, deliberately putting on a nonchalant air.

Yet the constantly fluttering eyelids quietly reveal his inner excitement.

Jiang Chen sees this and can't help finding it amusing. This being, who has existed for countless ages and is unimaginably powerful, now looks like a child.

How could it possibly not know that I have returned?

Isn't it just trying to tell me that the Dragon Pearl isn't important to it, lest it open its mouth too wide during the trade?

Jiang Chen decides to cooperate with Antares's performance, deliberately raising his voice: "Antares, wake up, I'm back."

Antares seems not to hear, remaining motionless.

Jiang Chen raises the volume again, calling twice more: "Antares, wake up, I'm back."

This time Antares finally reacts. He slowly opens his eyes, the massive dragon eyes—much larger than Jiang Chen himself—showing a trace of laziness and mockery.

"Oh, you've returned," he says lightly, as if Jiang Chen's comeback is a trivial matter.

Jiang Chen smiles gently, displaying the Dragon Pearl in his hand to Antares, "The Dragon Pearl you wanted, I've already brought it back."

Antares hums softly, says nothing extra, and merely parts his mouth slightly

, and the Dragon Pearl automatically flies into his mouth.

Though his movement appears casual, Jiang Chen keenly senses his urgent longing. The Dragon Pearl is evidently crucial to Antares, yet for some reason Jiang Chen cannot understand, he cannot retrieve it himself and must rely on external force.

This kind of transaction seems to have continued for many years.

The Jiang Yi encountered before also once retrieved a Dragon Pearl for Antares.

As for whether others have made similar trades with Antares, Jiang Chen does not know.

Antares's pride is famous; his eyes seem to have no room for anyone. Even Ao Hongchen, once equal to Hong Jishi, never earned his favor.

Strongmen like Hong Jishi and Li Xueru are merely ordinary in Antares's presence.

Antares hums lightly, and a gust of wild wind erupts instantly, nearly blowing Jiang Chen away.

Immediately after, solidified Fire God Essence Blood blocks fly neatly to Jiang Chen's front.

"This is the final payment of the trade," Antares's voice is calm yet imposing.

Jiang Chen, without politeness, directly gathers the solidified Fire God Essence Blood. A total of 100 pieces, a considerable amount. With them, he can summon 100 Flame Liches, unleashing 100 attacks of Pseudo‑God level.

However, as Jiang Chen's mastery over the Venomous God corpse grows, his need for Fire God Essence Blood has greatly diminished.

Antares's voice suddenly deepens, "Our first transaction is complete; you have passed my test. Now we can discuss the real deal."

But Jiang Chen interrupts him, "Antares, before we discuss the deal, I have some questions I want to ask"

Antares furrows his brows, "More questions? You should know that each of my answers comes at a price. This time, I can use my answer as a deposit for the second transaction."

Jiang Chen shakes his head, "No, not this time."

Antares instantly erupts in anger, a ferocious aura exploding, his huge dragon eyes fixed on Jiang Chen, "Kid, do you know who you're talking to? No one has ever dared to set conditions with me!"

Jiang Chen is unfazed, "Before it wasn't, but now it is. You say I've passed your test, yet you haven't passed mine."

Antares glares, as if ready to devour Jiang Chen whole, "You say you've passed my test, but I haven't passed yours? Hah, what a joke! What is your test?"

Jiang Chen calmly replies, "Aren't you the one who claims to know everything?"

Antares lifts his head proudly, his voice full of confidence, "Of course, in this world there is nothing I don't know."

Jiang Chen gently shakes his head, "During the first transaction I asked you a question, and your answer was wrong."

Antares's complexion changes, a flash of anger in his eyes, "Impossible! My answer has never been wrong!"

Seeing Antares's angry demeanor, Jiang Chen knows he has successfully provoked his curiosity.

He continues, "What if you were wrong?"

Antares takes a deep breath, a resolute determination flashing in his dragon eye, "If I am wrong, then from now on I will answer your questions truthfully. But if you dare deceive me, I will make you pay the price!"

"A word is a pact, never to be broken!" Jiang Chen's voice was firm and

strong.

"A word is a pact!" Antares likewise answers without hesitation.

It has lived countless ages, witnessed the world's vicissitudes, and considers nothing can escape its comprehension.

Jiang Chen now takes a bottle of pale‑green liquid from the Spatial Ring, "You should know what this is, right?"

Antares's dragon eye fixes on the bottle, and the next moment his body tenses, his voice wary, "This is… Corpse Toxin!"

Jiang Chen knows Antares certainly recognizes Corpse Toxin; this powder comes from Si Tu Yu's mother's wound, a low‑grade Corpse Toxin.

"You told me last time that Corpse Toxin has no cure, right?" Jiang Chen asks.

Antares answers without hesitation, "Corpse Toxin originates from a terribly forbidden skill, indeed has no cure."

Jiang Chen opens the bottle, this action makes Antares recoil even further.

This action makes Antares's body tense again, and he asks warily, "What are you trying to do?"

Jiang Chen smiles and shakes his head, "Don't worry, I just want to prove something."

Saying that, he gently pours some Fountain of Life onto the back of his hand.

Antares is stunned; Jiang Chen's act completely exceeds its comprehension.

Its huge dragon eyes widen, seemingly unable to grasp what is happening.

"You… what are you doing?" Antares's voice trembles with a hint of fear.

Jiang Chen gave a faint smile, shook his head, "You just need to watch."

As he said, he poured some Corpse Poison onto his own hand.

Antares widened his eyes, Jiang Chen does

the act, beyond its imagination.

Its big head could no longer comprehend, "Are you courting death?"

Jiang Chen shook his head, "Just keep watching."

After a while, Jiang Chen frowned, "Why is it not working?"

At that moment he realized he was not only immune to all abnormal states, but now also 100% immune to toxic elements.

Whether Corpse Poison counts as poison or as an abnormal state, it has no effect on him.

Antares stared dumbfounded, "You… how are you not poisoned? Is this Corpse Poison fake? Impossible!"

"I'll tell you later!" Jiang Chen, after figuring it out, helplessly summoned a Skeleton, then poured Corpse Poison onto the Skeleton.

He originally didn't intend to use the Skeleton to test the poison.

Now the Concentrated Power Skill, the Lich General's Skill can be inherited, and he can use it on himself.

It can also detoxify.

Unfortunately, in the end he still used the Skeleton.

After the Skeleton was doused with Corpse Poison, it was instantly poisoned.

Its whole body emitted the Corpse Poison's distinctive Black Qi.

Jiang Chen said, "My Skeleton is now poisoned with Corpse Poison, right?"

Antares was completely unable to understand Jiang Chen, instinctively nodded, "That's right."

At this moment Jiang Chen summoned another Lich General.

With a flash of White Light, the Corpse Poison on the Skeleton vanished instantly.

The Skeleton turned white to the point of translucence; there was no trace of Corpse Poison left.

Antares kept blinking, unable to believe the scene he saw, "This… impossible."

"This is wrong, impossible!"

It kept repeating its words, basically refusing to believe what it saw.

Jiang Chen said, "The fact is right before your eyes; the unsolvable Corpse Poison you mentioned, I can neutralize."

I originally

had wanted to use myself as an experiment, but I can't get poisoned anymore."

Antares instantly looked over, "Right, why aren't you afraid of Corpse Poison?"

Jiang Chen said, "My passive Skill grants immunity to all abnormal states, and my poison immunity has reached 100%."

Antares let out another strange cry, "Impossible, there can't be such a Skill, and the Human Race's element immunity cap is 90%, how could there be 100% immunity?"

Antares finally regained composure, staring at Jiang Chen, "You… how can you do this? What is special about your body?"

Jiang Chen gave a faint smile, "That's my secret. And don't you also have things you don't know?"

Antares was instantly speechless; it had lived countless years, considering itself an all‑knowing being.

Yet today, Jiang Chen broke its understanding twice in a row.

This made it begin to doubt whether it truly is all‑knowing.
