Chapter 82: Poison Pill, Toad Venom

~8 min read 1,418 words

Bang... bang... bang...

The Huang Jinlishi did not need to be controlled and chose one of the Green-Eyed White Toads to attack on its own.

He Pingsheng faced the other one.

Only then did he have time to carefully examine the demonic beast before him.

Green-Eyed White Toad.

Only its eyes were clear green, and its body was white from head to toe.

Moreover, this thing's body was huge, a full five feet in size.

It looked as big as a large calf, which was very terrifying.

Its bloody mouth opened wide enough to swallow a sheep whole.

He Pingsheng had never seen such a huge toad or frog in his life, and for a moment, he even felt some fear.

But as the fight continued, the fear in He Pingsheng's heart gradually disappeared.

Because he discovered that although the Green-Eyed White Toad was huge and looked scary, and its cultivation was equivalent to about the twelfth layer of the human Qi Condensation Stage, its actual combat power was limited.

First, because He Pingsheng was immune to all poisons.

And this thing's main means of attack was poison.

If the poison was useless, the threat to He Pingsheng was basically gone.

Secondly, the Green-Eyed White Toad's intelligence was not high; apart from attack and defense, it basically had no strategies or methods to use.

Unlike the Zhuang family siblings He Pingsheng had encountered before, who were each insidiously cunning.

"Slash..."

After entangling for about half an incense stick's time, He Pingsheng easily inserted his top-tier Flying Immortal Sword into the white toad's body.

Pfft...

Bright red blood sprayed out.

After suffering a very heavy injury, the white toad turned its head directly, wanting to retreat back into the water.

He Pingsheng naturally would not give it this opportunity.

"Slash..."

Pfft pfft pfft...

After several consecutive sword lights fell, the Green-Eyed White Toad rolled its eyes and died.

The other Green-Eyed White Toad, which was fighting the Huang Jinlishi, was not injured, but seeing its companion die like this, it also developed an intention to retreat.

However, He Pingsheng would not give it a chance either; with a wave of his hand and a drop of his sword, he killed it with one strike.

The simple battle ended.

There was no heart-pounding excitement, nor any reversals.

It was a very direct one-sided affair.

"Withdraw!"

He Pingsheng gave a light shout, and the Huang Jinlishi immediately collapsed, turning into countless golden spiritual energy that returned to He Pingsheng's body.

Looking at the two poisonous toad corpses before him, He Pingsheng naturally would not give up.

He was cultivating the 【Nine Poisons Refining Golden Body】 supernatural power, so the poison inside these toads naturally had to be utilized.

Walking to the side of the toad corpse, he infused a trace of spiritual power into his small flying sword, and the flying sword turned into the size of a dagger, one foot long.

"Sss sss sss..."

With a light swipe, the toad's skin and flesh were directly sliced open by him!

With a splash, blood flowed all over the ground, accompanied by internal organs that He Pingsheng didn't recognize.

He Pingsheng discovered that the toad's skin was not white, but green.

The reason it looked white just now was because a layer of white waxy substance was attached to its skin.

He Pingsheng used the flying sword to lightly scrape the toad's skin a few times, and pieces of white toad venom fell to the ground.

Sizzle sizzle sizzle...

When the toad venom was thrown on the ground, the unknown plants growing on the ground instantly turned withered and yellow, and then became fly ash.

"Good heavens..." He Pingsheng said in shock: "This thing, is the toxicity this high?"

Toad venom is also a type of poison!

"Collect it!" He Pingsheng was excited: "This is good stuff, keep it to use for body refining!"

Body refining requires various poisons, the more the better.

As for He Pingsheng, he had only just entered the 【Qi Refining Chapter】 of the Nine Poisons Refining Golden Body and had only refined it to the first layer.

There was still a long way to go!

In a few quick moves, he scraped off all the toad venom from the two white toads, putting it together into a large lump, weighing a full ten-plus jin.

After collecting the 【Toad Venom】, He Pingsheng continued to slice open the toad's corpse.

Because the cultivation was too low, it was impossible for a demonic beast of this level to have a demonic core, but there must be a poison pill.

After a few breaths, He Pingsheng found a white poison pill inside the toad's body.

It was about the size of a fist, felt ice-cold to the touch, and was still emitting hissing white poisonous gas; from afar, it looked as white as ice.

"A white poison pill, it's still quite rare!" He Pingsheng was naturally not polite and collected the white poison pill along with the toad venom.

Two poison pills and over ten jin of toad venom would be enough to cultivate for a long time.

This thing was large, much bigger than the poison pills inside the 【Tiger-Patterned Golden Bees】; one was worth thousands upon thousands of the poison bees'.

After taking the poison pills and toad venom, He Pingsheng also skinned the two toads.

This was good stuff.

Demonic beast skin, after being cut, could be directly turned into talisman paper and sold at the Chamber of Commerce, which could also be exchanged for quite a few spirit stones!

So it couldn't be thrown away!

After everything was done, the sky gradually darkened.

The setting sun withdrew its last ray of light.

He Pingsheng found an open space beside the pool and arranged the top-tier array materials according to a certain pattern.

Soon, a defensive array was deployed.

Staying in the defensive array at night was how He Pingsheng had been spending these days!

Most of the demonic beasts in the Mystic Realm were first-tier Qi Condensation Stage beasts; even if these beasts discovered the array, it was impossible for them to break it.

No need to worry.

As for second-tier Foundation Establishment Stage demonic beasts?

He had heard of them before, but they were extremely rare and basically impossible to exist.

If such a thing existed, it would definitely be a nightmare for Qi Condensation Stage disciples.

Once one appeared, the Dao Xuan Alliance would dispatch cultivators to enter in groups and kill the Foundation Establishment Stage demonic beast.

Entering the array, the first thing to do was to take out his Treasure Basin.

By the way, he put the 【Poison Pill】 and 【Toad Venom】 and other items into it.

These past few days, he had gained a lot in this Mystic Realm.

Not counting the killing of the two Zhuang family members and the bee nectar he obtained, He Pingsheng had also obtained quite a few first-tier spirit herbs.

But these things gradually made him feel a bit bored.

First-tier spirit herbs were not very valuable.

And these things could basically be bought with spirit stones, without any effort.

He suddenly wanted to go to the location of the 【Xu Yu Guo】 marked by the Zhuang family to take a look.

Foundation Establishment Pills were something he would eventually need.

There were three bottlenecks in the Qi Condensation Stage, which were breaking from the tenth to the eleventh layer, from the eleventh to the twelfth layer, and finally, from the twelfth layer to the Foundation Establishment Stage.

This Foundation Establishment Pill was not a necessary item.

For some genius disciples, they could enter the Foundation Establishment Stage without a bottleneck even without a Foundation Establishment Pill.

But for most people, there was at least one bottleneck, which was Foundation Establishment.

The Foundation Establishment Pill was one of the heaven-sent treasures for breaking through the bottleneck.

And to break this bottleneck, one could only use the Foundation Establishment Pill.

For someone like He Pingsheng with five-element spiritual roots, the importance of the Foundation Establishment Pill was self-evident.

Moreover, the Foundation Establishment Pill was a second-tier pill, and both the pill itself and its materials were extremely precious.

If he could obtain the Xu Yu Guo, whether selling it or keeping it for pill refining, it was a good choice. ===== CHAPTER 83 =====

If one can obtain the Cornelian Cherry fruit, whether selling it or keeping it to refine into elixirs, it is a good choice.
