176 Chapter 176 Seven decay ghost face (1/2)

Chuxue was freaked out and thought that Zong Shou was going to put her out of her misery so that she didn't suffer.

A short moment later, he realized that the sword had avoided the heart. The angle at which it stabbed in from was also tilted.

When Zong Shou pulled out that lightning tooth sword the sword tip was dripping thick blood.

...it had also become purple-black in color, but one could roughly see the purple gold lines within.

Zong Shou brought the sword tip to his nose and took a sniff, immediately frowning. A lightning glow exploded out at the sword tip and it burst the thick purple-red drop of blood into pieces.

This poison could corrode weapons. Luckily his sword could activate a lightning glow barrier which suppressed it.

However, when the blood was smashed into pieces it gave off an even worse stench. Chuxue nearly fainted and fell to the ground.

Hu Zhongyuan beside gave off a stern expression. He tried to bear with the stench and walked beside Zong Shou, hesitantly persuading him, ”Young master, this poison is just too dangerous. You're really important and should move away. Why not let me do this or that bastard behind us...”

Zong Yuan rolled his eyes, but he didn't feel angry. He was controlled by others and his actions weren't up to him. If he didn't become cannon fodder at least he would be asked to do dangerous things like today.

Anyways he had lost all interest in living and rather wished that he died. No matter how these people tortured him, he didn't care.

Zong Shou waved his hand and told Chuxue and Hu Zhongyuan to back off. Then, he used a spell to summon a ball of water and shoved a few pills into her mouth.

Then, he stabbed tens of golden needles into her acupoints all over her body.

He sighed, it was unfortunate that Xuanyuan Yiren wasn't here now. If not, she would be of more help than him, who wasn't that adept.

It was only because he was really good in marital cultivation. His energy cultivating method reached a really high level. As such he had a high understanding of the body structure and limbs. However, in terms of medical skills, he was worse than Xuanyuan Yiren.

Zong Should took a close look at her skin which, like her face, was protruding in some areas. They were spotted such that one didn't want to look. He had an idea, ”I should be right. This poison is most probably the seven decay ghost face. Who knows why day wandering spirit master harmed her...”

Zong Yuan and Chuxue didn't think much. Hu Zhongyuan, on the other hand, was really knowledgeable. His face turned ashen white, ”Seven decay ghost face... Is that the ghost face snake?”

Zong Shou nodded, looking in surprise at Hu Zhongyuan. There weren't many in the world that knew about this poison.

There weren't many ghost face snakes and most of them lived below the cloud ocean at some horrible abysses.

However, they were often used by day wandering spirit masters as protector beasts. This snake grew extremely fast and was grade 3 right when they were born. As long as one gave enough ebays crystals, poison, and food, in 200 years they can reach grade 7. As for grade 8 and 9, their speed was faster than the same as grade beasts.

In terms of fighting strength, they were slightly weaker and were pretty much the weakest type. But the poison they possessed was pretty much unbreakable. The higher the grade, the more poisonous it was. There was also some chance it could evolve into a flood dragon, which was why spirit masters loved it so much.

After being poisoned, one would look exactly like this girl. The face would look like a devil, and such protrusions and patterns would appear on one's body.

They would go through a total of 7 stages, and the internal organs and bones would fail one by one.

Hu Zhongyuan's face changed, following which he got up to persuade, ”so it is this poison. Prince, please end her soon! I heard that this poison is wired, and unless a spirit master specifically made herbs for it, it is impossible to cure. If one isn't careful one might be infected. What a vicious poison!”

Zong Shou didn't bother about whether his words were true or not, sitting at the spot and looking back into his memory at that huge book depository.

Although the spiritual energy weakened, the research into spells and medicine improved. Along with information being more connected, medicine proliferated and became prosperous.

Many difficult problems and profound topics in ancient times were solved one by one in the future.

This included this poison which many people viewed as unsolvable.

The library where Zong Shou was at was built by a country. Not only did it have a lot of books, but they also had pretty much all kinds of books. Zong Shou spent 10 years there, reading a large part of all the books, amongst which were some records of the seven decay ghost face.

However, he roughly remembered that the conditions to remove the poison were really demanding.

Not long after, some passage of words appeared in his mind. A look of relaxation could be seen in his eyes.

”...luckily it's just a grade 6 poison, this woman can still be saved! However, the poison entered her bone and we must use some time to remove it. The blood in her body must also be switched out...”
