317 Leons Method (2/2)

However, to destroy the core disciples and their technique thoroughly, he had to make some preparations.

Leon distanced himself further from the core disciples and made a mental list of herbs needed for his plan. The list consists of supplementary herbs, while the poison was the main ingredient.

In normal circumstances, Leon would use a pill cauldron to refine his pills, but since he was in the middle of battle, he conjured his flames and extracted the essence from the supplementary herbs directly.

Under Divine Will, the herbal essence was protected being burnt in the fire.

Leon took out the main ingredient, the pill bottle of yin poison with a trace of demonic energy, and emptied the pill bottle's content into the fire to merge with the herbal essences.

Spirit herbs produce miraculous effects when they are fused together. Not only can they become divine medicine, but they can also become dreadful poison. It all depends on the intention of the alchemist.

In Leon's case, he used the herbal essence to fuse with the yin poison and transformed its bone-eroding properties to blood-eroding properties.

Under the usage of Tier 2 to Tier 3 supplementary herbs, the effects of the blood-eroding poison were greatly amplified.

After completing the merging steps, Leon divided and condensed the poison essence into 18 blood-eroding poison pills before coating them in a very thin ice layer.

The pills were only half the standard pills' size, but any one of these pills could kill a person ten times over. It was dreadful beyond compare.

Leon never thought that they would be a point in his life where he would have to resort to refining poison with his alchemy knowledge.

”I don't know what you are trying to do, but don't think for a second that I will just let you do as you please!” Zagan shouted when he saw Leon refining his poison pills.

However, the process was extraordinarily swift and finished in several breathes. This was possibly Leon's quickest record of pill refining. Poison was much easier to refine than medicine. Likewise, it was easy to poison a person but harder to cure them.

After feinting an attack and evaded the next round of blood arrows, Leon spread out his divine sense and shot out all 18 blood-eroding poison pills in different directions. As if this was not enough, Leon had further injected wood energy into the pills before threw them.

After that, he used Divine Will to guide the poison pills into the liquid-state blood arrows beneath the core disciples' notice.

The core disciples saw Leon throwing out some things, but could not guess his intention. After sensing nothing wrong, the current controller, Zagan, recalled the blood arrows to rejoin the giant blob of dark blood floating above them.

”Ha! Have you gone crazy? Where were you aiming?” Zagan mocked in a jovial manner.

”It's too early for you to be happy.” Leon said coolly. his lips soon curve up into a cold smile before he added, ”In fact, it's too late for you to be happy.”

”What do you mean?”

Zagan frowned.

The cold smile filled Zagan with uneasiness, but he could not tell where the anxiety came from.

However, it did not take long before the expression of every core disciple warped with horror.

The thin layer of ice coating melted very quickly, followed by the poison pills dissolving right after. Once that happened, the poison spread like cancerous cells, eroding the blood cells while increasing its toxic mass.

”Something's wrong!”

A core disciple shouted after noticing something. However, even if Leon wanted to stop it at this point, it was impossible.

Under the propagating effect of wood energy, the poison spread at an accelerated rate. Wherever the blood went, the poison would follow.

In a short instance, the entire blob of dark blood lost all trace of its redness. It did not end there. The poison continued to travel through the blood link that connected the disciples.

The quicker ones were able to react quickly and cut off the blood link before the poison entered their bodies, but as for the slower ones? Their bodies rapidly wilted like dying flowers, before black goo oozed out of their orifices and pores.

The scene was especially horrifying.

Being the creator of the venomous poison, even Leon paled at the sight.

This blood-eroding poison… wasn't this a little too effective?! It was outright fearsome!
