Chapter 1152. Inside the Valley (2/2)

Although this battle was short, Wang Lin still felt lingering fear from how dangerous it was. This old woman’s poison spells were enough to let her beat most people at the same cultivation level. Even people with higher cultivation levels would suffer from her poison if they weren’t prepared.

It was a very common thing for Wang Lin to kill people, but today’s killing had happened for no reason. He didn’t even know her, and if not for the fact that she tried to kill him, he wouldn’t have killed her for no reason.

The small snake that was battling the woman in silver suddenly trembled and became weaker after the old woman was caught. Soon, the woman in silver caught the snake.

At this moment, the black ape had already bypassed the battlefield and entered the valley the eight skulls were surrounding. The beast army charged into the valley.

There were a ton of fierce beasts, and because the old woman was gone, the eight skulls became unstable. The lightning connecting them all collapsed.

Wang Lin looked at the black ape in the distance, and the black ape understood the order to keep running. The earth continued to vibrate as the beast army chased it through the valley.

There were some fierce beasts that wanted to charge at Wang Lin, but after he waved his sleeve, all of them died.

It didn’t take long for all the fierce beasts to leave him and chase after the black ape. He could still see the dust storm being kicked up.

Wang Lin’s eyes lit up and he stared at the eight skulls that had become even more unstable, like they were going to collapse. Wang Lin took a closer look before moving next to one of the skulls and hitting it with his palm.

The skull trembled and the ghostly light around it dissipated. It then shrank into a fist-sized grey skull and remained motionless.

Wang Lin sealed the remaining seven skulls the same way. These eight skulls were clearly a set for a formation. Wang Lin didn’t take them away, but sealed them, because he didn’t know what was in the valley. His divine sense couldn’t penetrate the fog.

He cautiously entered the valley. It would only take a thought for the seal on the eight skulls to dissipate and the siege from before to return.

The valley wasn’t very large. The first thing Wang Lin saw when he entered was a corpse. The corpse was rotting and he could only tell it was a male cultivator. There was a very unpleasant stench coming from the corpse.

After frowning, Wang Lin walked forward and soon arrived at the center of the valley. His divine slowly spread out and he soon found a figure sitting there along with four corpses that had died from poison.

“Thank you for saving me!” A weak voice came from the person sitting there.

Wang Lin’s expression was calm as he slowly walked forward and clearly saw everything before him.

The four corpses were all rotting. Their eyes were dark and there was a faint hint of confusion in them. The same foul smell was coming from their corpses as well.

The person sitting there was a middle-aged man. His face was pale without any trace of blood and there was a black line between his eyebrows. Even his origin soul was on the verge of death. It seemed the poison inside him had developed too far. This wasn’t an ordinary poison, but an extremely powerful poison!

“Late stage Nirvana Cleanser!” Wang Lin’s eyes lit up. A poison strong enough to kill a late stage Nirvana Cleanser cultivator was a match for the Seventh Heaven poison!

“Did Fellow Cultivator also come for the jade and pill recipe? I don’t know what sect you’re from. but I believe these two items are something you must obtain. Even if I don’t give them to you, I believe you have a way of opening my storage space. Forget it, I’ll let you have these two items, but please kill me so I can stop suffering from this Thousand Purple Worm.” There was bitterness on the middle-aged man’s face as he pleaded.

Wang Lin silently pondered as he looked at the four corpses on the ground and then at the middle-aged man before nodding.

“These four people were my disciples. In order to protect me, they were infected by the poison of that old woman from the Five Poison Sect and died.” There was sadness in the middle-aged man’s eyes. These four were the last of his disciples. If not for this incident, they would’ve eventually become leaders in the sect.

“I can’t use origin energy with this poison in my body, so lend me a trace of origin energy to open my storage space. I’ll take out the jade and pill recipe for you, then you can let me die a quick death! For the sake of worldly possessions, I ended up like this and even involved my disciples…” The bitterness on the middle-aged man’s face became even stronger.

Wang Lin still didn’t say a word as he raised his right hand and pushed forward. A strand of origin energy shot out toward the middle-aged man. When it got within three inches of the middle-aged man, the origin energy suddenly changed!
