Chapter 328: Asking Medicine of the World

Ten minutes later, Lei Tian of the Northwest Military Region came out; his face was as calm as an ancient well, making it impossible to tell if he had gained anything.

A few minutes later, the sixth participant from the Jiangcai Camp also walked out. Ever since entering the Lingze Secret Realm, he had separated from the others, under the pretext that splitting up would help Chen Fan collect more Soul Spirit Fruit.

Seeing everyone now, he wore a bitter expression and was extremely apologetic, claiming he had failed to collect any Soul Spirit Fruit.

Ye Tingxuan and the others smiled without a word; clearly, they were not on the same path, and there was no need for excessive talk.

The group waited for another moment. Of the four from the University Alliance, only three appeared; the remaining one had died in a struggle over Soul Spirit Fruit.

As of this moment, all surviving Ability Users from Great Xia had emerged, but apart from Chen Fan and his group, they were unaware that the four members of the Qiongxiao Army had been completely wiped out.

To keep up appearances, Chen Fan and the others continued to wait with the crowd. Not until the Lingze Secret Realm closed completely, and others saw that the four from the Qiongxiao Army still hadn't appeared, did they begin to discuss it.

"The four from the Qiongxiao Army didn't come out at all! Did they encounter a terrifying Strange Beast, or were they surrounded and annihilated by another faction?"

Several people speculated one after another, while Chen Fan and his group kept their expressions normal, leaving no room for suspicion.

Zhan Le sneered from the side: "Bai Muyuan was so arrogant; he must have offended some foreign faction and been wiped out by them."

"Sigh, it's possible. Bai Muyuan was indeed too flashy. But with Bai Muyuan dead, Bai Sheng will probably go crazy; I'm afraid the South China Military Region is about to change." Everyone couldn't help but sigh.

But since it didn't concern them, they held their peace, and soon everyone cast the total annihilation of the Qiongxiao Army to the back of their minds.

At this time, the Burning Heaven Scarlet Roc had already landed beside the group.

The group boarded the Burning Heaven Scarlet Roc and headed straight for the Shanhai Pavilion in Kyoto City.

When Liang Zhongshu saw them again, his expression couldn't help but change: "How come not a single person from the Qiongxiao Army returned?"

Everyone remained silent. Liang Zhongshu scanned each of their faces in turn and couldn't help but snort: "It's just as well that the beast is dead."

After dismissing the others, Liang Zhongshu kept only Chen Fan and Ye Tingxuan behind.

He stared at the two, his gaze sharp, his eyes as brilliant as the stars.

Chen Fan suddenly had the feeling of being seen through.

Liang Zhongshu spoke up: "Tell me, how did Bai Muyuan die?"

Before Chen Fan could speak, Ye Tingxuan said first: "It was me. I killed Bai Muyuan and all the Qiongxiao Army soldiers."

Chen Fan hurriedly stopped her: "Senior Sister, it was clearly me. I am the one who killed them."

Liang Zhongshu watched the two calmly: "Which of you is lying and which is telling the truth, a Martial Saint can distinguish clearly. A Martial Saint can perceive your heart rate changes and blood flow speed with absolute clarity."

Ye Tingxuan sobbed slightly: "Uncle Liang, it was Bai Muyuan who tried to molest me, so Chen Fan killed him. And they colluded with foreign factions to kill us; they are lower than pigs and dogs!"

Ye Tingxuan became more agitated as she spoke.

After hearing Ye Tingxuan's account, Liang Zhongshu frowned and asked: "Besides the people from the Jiangcai Camp, does anyone else know you killed them?"

"No one else," Chen Fan replied in a low voice: "Everyone else involved in this dispute is dead."

"Good!" Liang Zhongshu breathed a sigh of relief and looked at the two: "During this time, you few from the Jiangcai Camp should find an excuse to hide—go into seclusion or go away—in any case, don't let Bai Sheng see you."

"Yes!" The two nodded heavily.

Liang Zhongshu sighed to himself: "The South China Military Region is going to be in chaos for a while."

After sighing, he looked at Chen Fan again: "You have advanced to the Fifth Stage; it seems your Soul has recovered."

Chen Fan gave a bitter smile: "It has recovered, but now I am poisoned."

"Hm? What happened?" Liang Zhongshu asked, puzzled.

Chen Fan briefly recounted the process of encountering Amir's ambush.

Liang Zhongshu couldn't help but frown deeply, and Ye Tingxuan's face changed; she grabbed Chen Fan's arm, incredibly nervous.

After thinking for a moment, Liang Zhongshu said: "I have heard of the Vow Poison; it seems it is indeed unsolvable, but I will contact India to find a way."

"Thank you, Lord Martial Saint." Chen Fan thanked him sincerely.

He took out a Space Ring and handed it over: "Lord Martial Saint, this is a 10-cubic-meter Space Ring, and there are twenty Soul Spirit Fruits inside. Please take it. When asking for the antidote, it might be useful."

"This." Liang Zhongshu couldn't help but be surprised.

"You're really giving this Space Ring to me?"

"I'm giving it to you," Chen Fan said earnestly.

"Good lad! Then I won't stand on ceremony." Liang Zhongshu patted his shoulder, feeling delighted: "Twenty Soul Spirit Fruits, you kid must have robbed the entire Lingze Secret Realm, right?"

Chen Fan smiled sheepishly.

Seeing Chen Fan's expression, Liang Zhongshu raised an eyebrow; it seemed he had guessed correctly.

"There are still twenty-some days before the Vow Poison takes effect, Chen Fan. Don't be under too much pressure; I will find a way."

After comforting Chen Fan, Liang Zhongshu sent the two out of his office.

After the Jiangcai Camp members returned to the Taizu Mountain Range, Chen Fan went to Xuanxin Island to pay his respects to Ye Wentian at the first opportunity.

Upon hearing that he had been poisoned by the Vow Poison, Ye Wentian was also extremely anxious and immediately released information to the outside world to search for an antidote.

In the following time, besides cultivating, Chen Fan hunted Strange Beasts in the Other-dimensional Space; he wanted to accumulate more Killing Points, hoping he might draw the antidote to the Vow Poison.

However, facts proved that he was being a bit wishful.

Twenty days passed in the blink of an eye. During this time, the number of Seventh-tier Strange Beasts that died by his hand reached over a hundred, and Chen Fan's Killing Points shot directly to 130 million.

He exchanged the vast majority of his Killing Points for Lottery Draws, leaving only 10 million to exchange for the Void Heaven-Splitting Blade in case of emergency.

However, he did not draw the antidote he wanted, though he did have a bountiful harvest.

What satisfied him most was that he had obtained two more Space Divine Abilities: Space Projection Clone and Space Gate.

Among them, Chen Fan had once seen the Dragon Venerable of the Beast Worship Cult use the Space Projection Clone.

At that time, after Yan Yuehua advanced to Martial Saint, the one who fought a great battle with her was a Space Projection Clone of the Dragon Venerable.

Relying on just a projection clone, Yan Yuehua had struggled immensely, which showed the terror of this Space Divine Ability.

After asking the system, Chen Fan learned that the Space Projection Clone possessed 30% of the master's strength. Before using the Space Projection Clone, an Ability User needed to gestate the clone's essence soul in their Sea of Consciousness in advance.

Once the Space Projection Clone died, this essence soul would also dissipate. To use this Divine Ability again, one would need to gestate the essence soul anew, and the gestation time was generally about 10 days.

Chen Fan was very satisfied with this Divine Ability; even though the clone only had 30% of his strength, its utility was immense.

For instance, some risky tasks can be left for a clone to complete.

As for the other Space Divine Ability, Space Gate, it is likewise extremely formidable.

An Ability User can open a Space Gate at each of two starting locations; by passing through one Space Gate, one can emerge from the other.

The utility of this Divine Ability is even greater.

However, with Chen Fan's current strength, the span between the two Space Gates is at most only 20 kilometers.

But this is already enough!
