741 The Whole Family Together (2/2)
\”That is to say, there's an eighty percent chance that not only it can't guarantee safety, the poison itself might not be completely removed?\”
\”...Yes.\”
\”Supreme Tian Lun, what is your opinion?\”
\”Relying on the current sample, by extrapolation, then it would take at least three years to reduce the poison to more than fifty percent.\”
\”Then according to the proportion, completely eliminating it would take at least three hundred years!\”
\”... Daoist Master need not be anxious. Earth Spirit Hall's sisters will be here soon. They also could be considered as highly skilled practitioners of the way of poison. Maybe they can help.\”
\”Maybe?\”
In the Immortal One Area in the City of Immortals, many Elders of Heavenly Sage Hall were standing around three huge white jade coffins. The white jade coffins were covered with as much as a hundred prohibition talismans. Inside these coffins lied one man and two women. They were the three Successor Disciples of Spirit Sword Sect who were previously poisoned. Many Heavenly Sage Hall Elders carefully observed through the prohibition talismans and deduced the toxicity and planned for the poison removal. However, no matter who they were, they all frowned, unable to do anything.
In fact, it was only an hour since Zhu Shiyao was poisoned. In this short period of time, more than one hundred cultivators from all major sects had visited successively to discuss the treatment plan. In the end, even the leaders of the Five Uniques made a diagnosis and treatment one after another, and they still failed.
At this time, Daoist Master Feng Yin and Supreme Xian Xia were waiting for the arrival of the Earth Spirit Hall's sisters in front of the white jade coffin. The two Divine Poison Sisters had a great reputation in the Central Region. Their expertise in the way of poison was awe-inspiring and limitless, such that they always considered themselves as a cut above the others. Even this Grand Competition couldn't move them to go down the mountain. This time, Supreme He Tu sent someone to invite them out with a heavy gift.
However, at this time, even Supreme He Tu didn't have a high expectation that they could uncover the poison in Zhu Shiyao's body.
A moment later, two purple clouds arrived. The Divine Poison Sisters of Earth Spirit Hall came side by side with style.
After they stood in front of the coffins for a cup of tea's time, they took two steps back. Purple air appeared on their faces, which showed their inner turmoil. The elder sister bit her lips and said to Feng yin, \”Apologize, the two of us can do nothing about it. The deposit will be returned in full.\”
With that, the two of them drove away on their purple clouds, leaving behind a group of sighing Elders of Heavenly Sage Hall.
\”The Earth Spirit Hall Sisters also can't do it, who else should we look for next? The legendary dragon in the green dragon pool? That dragon's poison is so fierce, but its body could withstand ten thousand poisons.
\”That dragon's ability to withstand poison relies on the dragon pearl. Do you expect it to spit out the dragon pearl and give it to us? What's more, if the dragon pearl can remove the poison, do you think Daoist Master Feng Yin will still sit and watch his three Successful Disciples unconscious?\”
\”Alas, it's indeed the way of Fallen Immortals. Once they make their move, the outstanding heroes of the Union of Ten Thousand Immortals are unable to do anything about it. It is indeed superior to that of Earth Immortals.\”
\”... What did those Earth Immortals initially say about the poison?\”
\”They said that this poison once made the leader of the Earth Immortals helpless. Only by…\”
\”Only by cutting the weeds and eliminating the roots could the poison be removed. But now the poison has spread in the City of Immortals. I don't know how many disciples and Elders of big sects are unfortunately poisoned. Who could cut the weeds and eliminate the roots?\”
\”At the time of the incident, our response was timely. Relying on the City of Immortals, we managed to control the situation. All the poisoned people had been isolated and the poison is not out of control.\”
\”But the whereabouts of Four Element Supreme is still unknown, he might reappear at any time... Alas, I don't know what the Shengjing's area surveillant envoys were doing!\”
\”Hey, it seems that someone is coming here again. At this time, they still don't know how 'to sound out the difficulties and retreat to avoid defeat'… Do they want to use this opportunity to hype themselves up, or are they really sure?\”
\”... You, old man, really don't pay attention to outside matters. The one who comes here is more famous than the sisters before. She's the only surviving disciple of the Great Desolation Era Witchcraft in Nine Regions who once won the battle against Poison Immortal.\”
It was another tea's time.
\”... What did that young woman A Wu say?\”
\”She said that the poison is non-poison, so ordinary poison removal methods would not work. Moreover, she's just a witch doctor, so she doesn't know the deeper way…\”
\”Wait a moment, the poison is non-poison? What does that mean?\”
\”Supreme Xian Xia also asked about it, but Miss A Wu can't speak clearly when she's anxious, and often even speaks in local dialect… Alas, I had hoped that with a different way of thinking, some good things would come out.\”
Several Elders were having a discussion in front of the white jade coffins when suddenly, a few middle-aged cultivators came quickly from the outside. They looked serious and even ashen and they carried a few white jade coffins. Their cold anger was visible.
But which of the Elders present at this time was not well-informed? They immediately stopped these people and said, \”What are you guys doing?\”
The leader of the middle-aged cultivators responded with great forbearance, \”... We are cultivators of Mount Sky Terrace. Our disciples are poisoned. Please help us!\”
At the same time, there was a fast-approaching rolling cloud of fire. In the middle of the fire cloud, the Red Robed Elder looked furious.
\”Four Element just made another move. He killed two Yuanying Stage disciples and five successor disciples of Mount Sky Terrace. I beat him back but failed to stop him. I asked them to come here. Could you guys save those five disciples?\”
After the Elders who guard in front of the white jade coffin heard the explanation of the Red Robed Elder, they nodded and let the group of middle-aged cultivators put the five white jade coffins beside Zhu Shiyao and the others. At this point, the number of white jade coffins turned to eight.
How many more would there be?
