Book 07 Chapter 171: Fight Poison with Poison

The Silken Web Heavenly Demon? Gu Hais face darkened.

Just a few days ago, Chiyou had driven back the five peak masters of the Heavenly Demon Holy Land in the Corpse Mound World. To think they came again so soon?

Even I found the venom of the Silken Web Heavenly Demon unbearable back then. It is colorless and odorless, rendering ones body stiff and at his mercy. Whats more, it can enter through the pores, not needing inhalation. However, even the Silken Web Heavenly Demon would find it challenging to produce such a poison, requiring at least three hundred years of acc.u.mulation to engulf Borderless Heavenly Capital. Father, Mother, we must leave quickly! Gu Han exhorted.

The Unborn Man also moved, as if to evade the imminent danger.

However, Chen Xianer shook her head, exuding confidence. Dont worry. I have a solution for any kind of poison.

But, Mother, the venom of the Silken Web Heavenly Demon is incredibly dangerous! Gu Han objected out of concern.

Trust your mother and refrain from acting recklessly, Gu Hai interjected calmly.

Huh? Yes! Gu Hans expression still reflected deep worry.

Venom? In the past, Gu Hai would have been greatly concerned, but with Chen Xianers resurrection, he felt a.s.sured, knowing her remarkable capabilities and mastery of poisons, which she had demonstrated during their time in the Gus Immortal Firmament.

Her body was formed by the poison Dao laws, granting her natural control over the poison Dao laws.

Who could compare to her in poisons? This was simply courting trouble.

Chen Xianer extended her right index finger and delicately tapped the air.

Buzz!

A radiant ripple emerged and swiftly expanded, resembling a cascade of colorful dust permeating Borderless Heavenly Capital. The dust particles were so scattered and subtle that they were almost invisible.

How did it go? Gu Hai turned to Chen Xianer.

I have neutralized the poison. Additionally, I have released a similar poison, Chen Xianer declared with a smile.

A similar poison? Gu Hai inquired.

The ancient shamans once concocted this silken web poison when they created the Spider King, but the output was low. They tried to reproduce it but failed, creating something substandard and ineffective. The poison I synthesized bears some semblance to it, Chen Xianer explained.

Gu Hai nodded, understanding her strategy. Xianer is intentionally luring out the Silken Web Heavenly Demon?

As the poison spread through the air over the course of several hours, a peculiar scene unfolded in Borderless Heavenly Capital.

Crack!

A Borderless Heavenly Capital citizen suddenly stiffened, unable to move.

Crack! Crack! Crack! Crack! Crack!

More and more citizens succ.u.mbed to the same fate, their bodies frozen in place.

Whats happening? Why is my body so rigid?

It feels as if Im caught in a spiderweb!

I cant move, either. Im completely immobilized!

The stiffness is getting worse. How could this be? Someone, save me!

The people in the city wore expressions of fear and panic as they witnessed the unfolding events.

Residents of Borderless Heavenly Capital, although you may feel some discomfort, remain calm. It will soon pa.s.s. Gu Hais voice resounded throughout Borderless Heavenly Capital, rea.s.suring the citizens.

The words of their emperor rea.s.sured the citizens, who let go of their worries.

Since His Reverence said this would pa.s.s soon, it will pa.s.s soon. Theres no need to worry.

Gu Hai was now the spiritual pillar of Borderless Heavenly Capital. His every word influenced the citizens.

The citizens no longer felt afraid, but cold laughter suddenly came from the skies of Borderless Heavenly Capital.

Discomfort? Will soon pa.s.s? Hahahaha! Gu Hai, I think you cant move, either, right? A voice rang out like an explosion in Borderless Heavenly Capital.

All eyes turned towards the sky, where three black-robed figures stood proudly on a white cloud.

The leader was the one who had laughed earlier.

Standing in the Soaring Palace Halls plaza, Gu Hai and the others eyed the three black-robed figures in the sky with a mix of caution and determination.

Indeed, its the Silken Web Heavenly Demon, along with Number Eight and Number Nine, Gu Han exclaimed while glaring.

Amityus! Vairocana said with a sullen expression.

Shangguan Hen tightened his fists, ready for a confrontation.

Chen Xianer stood confidently beside Gu Hai, smiling at the three in the sky.

Husband, it seems they are quite overconfident, dont you think? Chen Xianer commented with a hint of amus.e.m.e.nt in her voice.

Gu Hais gaze remained fixed on the figures above as he replied, Silken Web Heavenly Demon? Why are there only the three of you this time? Where are Number Five and Number Ten?

The three of us are more than enough. We simply lacked preparation in the Corpse Mound World previously. Do you really think we feared Chiyou? Hmph, we just didnt want any unnecessary losses. So, how do you feel now? the Silken Web Heavenly Demon sneered coldly.

How do we feel? Hah! Do you even know where you are? You barged into Borderless Heavenly Capital; do you plan to die here? Gu Hais voice turned chilly as he challenged the intruders.

Die here? Hahaha! With just the few of you? Even at your best, you wouldnt stand a chance against us. Moreover, you all are now afflicted with a potent poison. Your nerves will soon be numbed, rendering you completely helpless. Vairocana? Shangguan Hen? Gu Han? Even being in the consummation of the Upper Heavenly Palace Realm, you wont survive my Silken Web Poison. It is the deadliest poison in the world. Prepare to meet your doom! the Silken Web Heavenly Demon sneered, exuding confidence.

Its merely the silken web poison? Is that all youve got? Gu Hai responded nonchalantly.

What did you say? the Silken Web Heavenly Demon demanded, surprised by Gu Hais audacity.

I said youre too ignorant. It is just an insignificant silken web poison, and you dare to call it the deadliest poison in the world? Gu Hai chuckled with a tone of derision.

As the Silken Web Heavenly Demon was about to respond with more mockery, the ninth-ranked peak master suddenly touched his nose, only to find a drop of blood staining his fingertip.

Number Six, Im bleeding from my nose! the ninth-ranked peak master exclaimed in surprise, realizing something was wrong.

M-my nose is bleeding too. It seems Ive been poisoned. Number Six, did you poison me? the eighth-ranked peak master asked, stupefied.

Nonsense! How can that be? No one in this world can rival my expertise in poison! I My nose is also bleeding? The Silken Web Heavenly Demon suddenly shuddered, his confidence faltering in disbelief.

Impossible! Number Six, you are the embodiment of poison. How can you be poisoned? the ninth-ranked peak master exclaimed, struggling to comprehend the situation.

The embodiment of poison? The Silken Web Heavenly Demon, who was famous for inflicting poison on others, had never experienced the effects himself.

I got poisoned? The Silken Web Heavenly Demon recalled the sorry states of those he had poisoned in the past. I got poisoned? I dont even know what poison this is. How can this be?!

Take them down! commanded Gu Hai.

Understood! Shangguan Hen, Gu Han, and Vairocana stepped forward, determined to subdue their now-vulnerable opponents.

Boom!

The auras of the three consummate Upper Heavenly Palace Realm experts erupted like raging torrents, surging toward the Silken Web Heavenly Demon and his companions.

You... Youre not poisoned? Number Nine exclaimed in disbelief.

Quick, run! The Silken Web Heavenly Demon spewed a mouthful of blood because of the poison.

As a poison master, the Silken Web Heavenly Demon understood the terrifying nature of this virulent poison. He was no longer bleeding from just his nose; all seven facial orifices were now oozing blood. If he didnt find an antidote immediately, the poison would reach his heart, rendering him beyond salvation; even the mighty Unrestrained Heavenly Demon would not be able to save him.

Run! The three experts turned and fled in fear, realizing their peril.

Thinking of running now? Isnt it a little too late? Shangguan Hens voice turned cold as he mocked their feeble attempt at escaping.

Gautama Divine Palm!

Buddhist Nation in Hand!

Earthly Fiend Guardian Palm!

The three unleashed devastating palm strikes, determined to bring down their poisoned adversaries.

The three heavenly demons prioritized escape over retaliation, as they were poisoned; staying alive was more important.

Bang! Bang! Bang!

The three palm strikes smashed into the three heavenly demons.

Blargh! Blargh! Blargh!

The three spewed mouthfuls of blood as the attacks sent them hurtling away.

Buzz!

In an instant, their forms flickered.

Oh no! They are going to escape! Hurry! Gu Han made a desperate attempt to catch the three heavenly demons, but they slipped through his grasp and vanished.

Startled by their sudden disappearance, Shangguan Hen asked, Where did they go?

Vairocana remarked with surprise, The nether realms aura?

Gu Hans expression sank as he explained, They possess the Two-Realm Talisman bestowed by the Unrestrained Heavenly Demon, which allows them to traverse between the nether realm and the land of the living!

The Unborn Man! Hurry! Get the Unborn Man to open a pa.s.sage to the nether realm! They are severely weakened, and this is the best time to pursue them! Shangguan Hen said urgently.

Regret washed over Gu Han. Its too late. The Two-Realm Talisman doesnt transport them to the corresponding location in the nether realm; it takes them somewhere at random. Since theyve escaped, we wont be able to find them!

If only we had been faster earlier! Rage filled Shangguan Hens face.

This should have been easy. To think we let them escape? How frustrating!

The three returned to the Soaring Palace Halls plaza with bitter expressions.

Gu Han blamed himself, his voice filled with regret. Father, Mother, it was my mistake. I should have rushed in earlier!

Theres no need to regret. If you had acted sooner, I wouldnt have had enough time to administer the poison. Let them escape; my poison has already locked on to them. If they return, I will detect them in advance, Chen Xianer said, consoling him.

Meanwhile, a tremor ran through the bodies of the citys populace, and their previous stiffness dissipated, to their relief.

Oh! My entire body feels very comfortable!

The poison from those three individuals in black robes did not seem like much.

His Reverence is incredible!

Countless citizens rejoiced.

However, Gu Hai frowned slightly, concerned over their failure to capture the Silken Web Heavenly Demon. It was a troubling sign that the Heavenly Demon Holy Land had pursued them to the land of the living after just a few days. This showed how vengeful the Heavenly Demon Holy Land was.

Dont worry, Husband. The poison afflicting the Silken Web Heavenly Demon and his companions is no ordinary toxin. Although they managed to escape, finding an antidote will take time. The poison will spread to anyone who attempts to cure them. They wont have an easy time! Chen Xianer rea.s.sured him.

Gu Hai nodded in acknowledgment.

The Unborn Man gazed at Chen Xianer in astonishment. Wasnt she a mere mortal before her death? Although Gu Hai reconstructed her body, her proficiency with poisons seems remarkable. She was able to silently poison consummate Upper Heavenly Palace cultivators; even the White Emperor was not this incredible. How is Wanqing to handle her?

As worry filled the Unborn Man, Gu Hais expression suddenly turned serious.

Somethings wrong. The Nine Li Imperial Dynasty? First Brother? Gu Hais face abruptly changed.

Chiyou? Gu Han asked, puzzled.

Suddenly, Gu Hais heavenly eye opened on his forehead, emitting a brilliant light. An aura of heavenly might swept out, sending s.h.i.+vers down everyones spine.

In an instant, Gu Hai saw the distant cardinal central position of the Divine Continentthe capital of the Nine Li Imperial Dynasty, Chiyou City.

Rumble!

Thunderbolts roared above Chiyou City, descending in cascades, as if intent on obliterating the city.
