Chapter 1499: Poison Killing Martial Cultivator

Ye Liuyun asked Luo Yun for pills; they were all cultivation-use pills, but Luo Yun first took out some detox pills and had everyone take them.

Then what she took out next were pills that release poisonous gas.

Thus, Luo Yun openly took out poison pills, pretending to explain them to Ye Liuyun.

She then crushed the pills and casually threw them, letting the poison gas disperse.

Unfortunately, among those martial cultivators, there were also some who knew how to concoct pills.

Although Luo Yun claimed to be explaining body-refining pills to Ye Liuyun, the martial cultivator could tell at a glance that the pills she produced were not body-refining pills.

"Nonsense!" that martial cultivator, displeased, couldn't help but interject: "What you took out is absolutely not body‑refining pills!"

That martial cultivator, however, had no suspicions.

But his words aroused suspicion among the other martial cultivators.

"Old Lu, what kind of pill did that woman just take out?" a Tianzun Realm martial cultivator immediately asked.

"Uh… I don't even know exactly what kind of pill it is!" the pill‑concocting martial cultivator hesitated and said: "Anyway, it's definitely not a body‑refining pill!"

Seeing the situation about to be exposed, Luo Yun immediately began arguing with that martial cultivator.

"What do you know? Who said my body‑refining pills have to be the same as yours?"

"You say I don't understand?" that martial cultivator, not backing down, also began arguing with Luo Yun.

"Argue with him as much as possible to buy time." Ye Liuyun sent a mental transmission to Luo Yun.

At the same time, that Tianzun Realm martial cultivator also cautioned the others: "Cover your mouths and noses, lest these people poison us!"

"Will the poison pills still work after they cover their mouths and noses?" Ye Liuyun asked Luo Yun via transmission.

"It's fine; as long as they touch the poisonous smoke it works. But a single poison pill has limited effect. I can't bring out more poison pills right now!" Luo Yun also felt helpless.

"How long until the poison takes effect?" Ye Liuyun asked.

"About a quarter of an hour!" Luo Yun replied.

"Once the poison takes effect, immediately throw out all the other poison pills!" Ye Liuyun told Luo Yun.

At the same time, he notified the others to prepare to act immediately once the poison took effect.

Luo Yun and that martial cultivator argued back and forth, dragging on about irrelevant matters.

At that moment, although the Tianzun Realm martial cultivator didn't understand pills, he also noticed Luo Yun was diverting the conversation.

He immediately stopped their argument and directly asked Luo Yun: "What exactly were those pills you just crushed?"

"Of course they're body‑refining pills!"

Luo Yun would certainly not admit they were poison pills.

"Take another one out so we can check!" that martial cultivator pressed.

"Exactly! Take another out and we'll know right away!" the pill‑concocting martial cultivator also said.

"You say take it, then take it—on what basis?" Luo Yun naturally dared not let them inspect it, for that would immediately expose her.

"If you dare not take it out, it shows you're guilty—you were just trying to poison us!" that martial cultivator continued to press Luo Yun.

At the same time, the other martial cultivators nearby became alert, staring at Ye Liuyun, Luo Yun, and the others.

"Have them exchange spirit stones!" Ye Liuyun transmitted to Luo Yun.

"I can take out another one if you like—bring spirit stones to buy it! My body‑refining pills are worth at least twenty spirit stones each!" Luo Yun tried to stall for time.

But that martial cultivator, without a word, directly threw forty spirit stones at Luo Yun.

"Take out the pills right now, or we won't be polite!"

"Give it to him. Take it out, crush it immediately, then retreat quickly. Guo Da, prepare the formation plate for defense; everyone else, get ready to fight!" Ye Liuyun transmitted to all.

"All right!" Luo Yun put away the spirit stones, slowly took out two pills, then suddenly pinched and flung them while stepping back.

Ye Liuyun simultaneously launched a spiritual soul attack at the Tianzun Realm martial cultivator opposite Luo Yun.

Guo Da immediately set up the defense formation plate. Meng Zhangxing then released a puppet, sneaking up to attack a Tianzun Realm martial cultivator.

A Ya then cast spells on the martial cultivators nearest to her.

"Sure enough, there's foul play!" the other martial cultivators exclaimed, immediately falling into chaos.

"Everyone attack together and wipe them out!" a martial cultivator shouted.

Thus everyone rushed to attack Ye Liuyun and his group.

Ye Liuyun released his clone. The clone is immune to poison and can join the fight, but other ferocious beasts cannot.

Now poison gas fills this place, so we cannot let them out.

Luo Yun then flung a few more pills outside the formation plate; they exploded. These pills directly released black smoke, obviously poisonous at a glance.

The martial cultivators outside also immediately began taking antidote pills. Those farther away also immediately kept their distance to avoid poisoning.

"Oh no, some people have fled far enough that the poison didn't reach them." Luo Yun told Ye Liuyun.

Ye Liuyun, however, calmly said: "It's fine! Since it's come to this, we'll kill as many as we can!"

They were in a hurry but could do nothing; now that it's come to this, they can only do their best.

Afterward, he and his clone charged out of the formation and engaged those martial cultivators in battle.

Meng Zhangxing then controlled the puppet to attack, A Ya used spells, Luo Yun flung pills outward, and Guo Da reinforced and strengthened the formation.

After a brief panic, the outside martial cultivators saw that no one had collapsed from poison, grew bolder, and some charged forward again to attack Ye Liuyun and his clone.

Ye Liuyun's reason for charging out of the formation was also to lure those martial cultivators over.

Indeed, the martial cultivators thought that with their superior numbers they could quickly finish off Ye Liuyun, so many who had previously stayed far away rushed back.

Ye Liuyun and his clone merely displayed sword intent, trying to push people away, feigning weakness, and continually dodging around the defense formation plate.

Seeing that no one had been poisoned or harmed, the martial cultivators grew a bit bolder and shrank their encirclement somewhat.

Thus, Ye Liuyun and his group had no room left to evade.

Ye Liuyun and his clone also simply stopped dodging and directly began the slaughter.

"Pfft, pfft, pfft—after a few strikes of the Demon Slaying Sword, a Martial Cultivator fell dead."

"Second level of the Tianzun Realm!" a Martial Cultivator immediately noticed Ye Liuyun's realm and shouted it out.

"Get out of the way! Leave it to me!" Immediately a Tianzun Realm Martial Cultivator rushed forward, replacing the lower-realm Martial Cultivator.

But just then, a Martial Cultivator suddenly vomited white foam, collapsed and convulsed incessantly, and soon died.

The medicinal properties finally began to take effect!

"It's poisonous!" The Martial Cultivators immediately shouted warnings to their companions and retreated together to the outskirts.

But some people kept collapsing from poisoning.

The clone, covered in Demon Qi, entangled some Martial Cultivators and chased after them.

He also used Demon Qi as cover, silently releasing poison gas. Any Martial Cultivator he caught up to instantly collapsed dead.

The poison released by Luo Yun consisted of two different toxins, so even if these Martial Cultivators took an antidote pill, it could only delay the symptoms; it could not cure the poison at all.

Many Martial Cultivators began to collapse dead on the spot.
