Chapter 442: Detoxification and the Letter of Challenge
Liu Ming was a little surprised when he heard this. After he thought quickly, he slowly replied, “This matter is of great importance. Please allow me to think about it.”
Fang Yao smiled slightly, took out a communication disk array and handed it to Liu Ming, saying, “In fact, if I don’t use the blood locust king beast’s poison sac, I can also blend other detoxification elixir for you. However, it takes too long, and the time may not be enough. Besides, the detoxification effect of other elixirs may not work as intended. It is possible that they can’t completely cure the poison in your body. According to my observation, the poison in your body has acc.u.mulated a lot, and it has been over a long time. Even if I blend another elixir to suppress it temporarily, it may not be that effective. Therefore, it is better to cure the poison as soon as possibly. If you can get the poison sac of the blood locust beast, I still need time to refine the elixir. You should decide as early as possible. If you are willing to join in and wipe out the blood locust beast, you can always inform me through this thing.”
After Liu Ming listened, his mind turned quickly, but his face remained calm. He took over the disk array from the other party, thanked, and left the place.
As soon as he flew away from the island, he did not return to Qingyu Island, but he turned and flew in another direction.
Before coming to this island, he also specifically inquired about other cultivators who were well-known in medical skills within the Changfeng a.s.sociation’s sphere of influence.
With Liu Ming’s character, he naturally didn’t want to let go of any chance.
…
Two days later, on an island not far from Qingyu Island.
Liu Ming walked out of a wooden house with a solemn expression, and there was an old man in sackcloth behind him.
“The poison you have is peculiar, and I can’t think of a safe way after thinking about it. However, the blood locust beast mentioned by mister, according to my years of experience, this kind of method of combating poison with poison is indeed doable when curing some strange poisons. However, the risk of it isn’t small. If one doesn’t have full confidence in it, it will easily make the situation worse.”
When Liu Ming heard this, his heart moved slightly. He immediately cupped his fist and thanked him, “Thank you for your advice. When it’s really at stake, I naturally can’t bother so much.”
“That’s true. By the way, there is also another person of the Changfeng a.s.sociation who has better medical skills than me. His name is Fang Yao. If he is willing, there maybe a way. However, he likes to be alone and doesn’t like to deal with the outsiders..” The old man in sackcloth nodded. As he wanted to walk back into the house, he seemed to think of something, and he said so suddenly.
Liu Ming smiled bitterly as he heard the words, but he still thanked with a natural face. Then, he rode on the cloud and flew away again.
The direction he was going this time was Qingyu Island.
In the past few days, he had visited several nearby cultivators who were good at medical skills. As a result, most of these people were helpless with the poison in Liu Ming’s body. The detoxification method proposed by a handful of two or three people took longer, and they didn’t have full confidence in curing it.
In contrast, Fang Yao’s method was more reliable. After all, he also verified from the other cultivators that it was possible to use blood locust beast’s poison sac to fight poison with poison.
As he was helpless, he could only check out Xin Yuan’s situation first. Then, he would discuss the future plan.
As Liu Ming thought so, he flicked his finger and launched a talisman. It turned into a green light that went into the cloud under his feet. His flying speed was a little faster instantly.
One day later. He saw the shadow of Qingyu Island in the distance.
After Liu Ming flew into Qingyu Island, he went straight to Xin Yuan’s cave house.
But after he knocked on the door, he learned from the maid who was staying in the cave house that Xin Yuan had not returned after going out.
After Liu Ming frowned, he returned to his cave house first.
After half a day pa.s.sed, Xin Yuan came to Liu Ming excitedly. When he saw Liu Ming in the middle of the hall, he took out several colorful bottles from his body.
Seeing this, Liu Ming’s eyes flashed with joy.
After a few minutes.
In the secret room, Liu Ming and Xin Yuan looked at the few empty bottles in front of them, and they couldn’t help smiling bitterly at each other.
They tried these Changfeng a.s.sociation’s detoxification spiritual medicines, but they weren’t effective at all.
“In the meeting, those guests gave an extravagantly colourful description to this elixir, but they are still useless in the end.” Xin Yuan said with a depressed expression.
Anyone would not have a good mood after putting in all his effort for a few days and making himself exhausted, but he finally found that all his effort was useless.
“This poison is refined by a Real Pellet State powerhouse after all. It is normal for the elixirs collected by Changfeng a.s.sociation to be useless.” Liu Ming frowned slightly and said lightly.
“There is not much time left. It seems that for the present, we can only join Fang Yao’s party to hunt down those blood locust beasts.” Xin Yuan snorted and said.
Liu Ming had already told about his experience of seeking medical experts before.
“I have this intention, but this matter may be dangerous. You and I have to be a little more cautious.” Liu Ming hesitated a moment later, but he could only nod with a wry smile.
The two discussed again, and both agreed that regardless of whether Fang Yao’s words were true or false, they decided to agree to Fang Yao’s proposal first and work with others to eliminate the group of blood locust beasts.
After all, with their strength, they naturally didn’t have to be afraid that the other party would turn back on his words afterward.
After making up his mind, Liu Ming immediately took out the communication disk array and contacted Fang Yao.
For Xin Yuan recommended by Liu Ming, Fang Yao naturally did not object.
After all, there were so many blood locust beasts over there, one more person could make the mission more secure.
Afterwards, both parties agreed to meet on the island where Fang Yao was located in half a month. Then, they set off together to eliminate the group of blood locust beasts in the deep sea.
Liu Ming and Liu Ming naturally had to prepare for the fierce battle that they might face next. After a little discussion, they prepared separately.
…
Just when Liu Ming and Xin Yuan were busy taking action, news came from the Changfeng a.s.sociation’s headquarters that the Golden Jade League finally sent someone to formally give the letter of challenge.
Three days later.
In the main hall of the Changfeng a.s.sociation, Feng Zhan was sitting in the middle, and two vice presidents, hall master and high rank guests were all gathered here. They were sitting accordingly on the left side.
After being notified, Liu Ming and Xin Yuan naturally came to the meeting and sat in the back positions.
Wei Zhong and Feng Cai, dressed in colorful clothes, stood in an open s.p.a.ce next to the main seat, talking and laughing as if there were no others.
Two men in golden robes were sitting opposite to the crowd. One had a white hair and a childlike face. He claimed that he was the deputy leader of the Golden Jade League, and the thin man sitting next to him looked dull. He was very quiet.
“In this way, President Feng has no opinion on sending three people from each side. But regarding the battle mode, our league hopes to follow the six-person rotation battle system, that is, both sides will send out three persons. They can stay on the stage as long as they win. The battle ends until the three candidates of one side are all defeated. Only in this way can we reflect the true strength of both parties!” The old man in white hair said slowly with a calm expression on his face.
As soon as this remark came out, everyone of the Changfeng a.s.sociation couldn’t help being stunned.
Feng Zhan above the main seat also couldn’t help but flash a hint of surprise in his eyes.
This kind of rotation battle system was slightly different from his previous expectations. The strength of the Condensation Period cultivator in the Golden Jade League was originally above the Changfeng a.s.sociation. Now they proposed such a way to battle, they naturally had their ulterior motives. They must have something they can count on.
Speaking of which, Changfeng a.s.sociation’s chance of winning was mostly relying on the young man in black of the Five Spirits Sect. Such a battle was exactly what Feng Zhan wanted.
But he still glanced at Wei Zhong next to him, wanting to ask about his opinion.
“Senior Feng, don’t worry, this kind of battle mode is just what I want.” Seeing this, the young man in black said with a grin.
“Hmph, since the Dugu old fox has this courage, I will accompany him to the end. However, you have decided on the way of the battle. As usual, we have to decide the location of the battle. Let’s just set in at the Valley of Fire. The valley is also quite famous in the South Sea Region. I think the two n.o.ble envoys should know about it.” After Feng Zhan thought about it for a while, he snorted and replied.
“Okay, then let’s set it at the Valley of Fire. Two months later, it will the day of the match! I hope that the Changfeng a.s.sociation will not let our league down! ” The old man in white hair just thought for a while and agreed on it.
After hearing this, Wei Zhong showed a satisfied expression on his face. He whispered a few words in Feng Cai’s ear.
After Feng Cai listened, her beautiful eyes turned, and a smile appeared at the corner of her mouth.
“Since the matter has been discussed, we should leave as well.” The old man in white hair stood up and said goodbye.
“In that case, I will not see you off!” Feng Zhan said indifferently.
After the old man in white hair forced a laughter, he turned his eyes and looked at the young man in black besides Feng Zhan. His eyes flickered as he said with profound meaning. “This should Master Wei Zhong, a high-ranking disciple of the Five Spirit Sect. Senior Feng really has good means! “After saying this, he turned and walked out with another person.
Feng Zhan’s face turned gloomy when he heard the words. When he glanced at the young man in black with the corner of his eyes, he found that the young man was chatting with his daughter happily. He didn’t seem to put the old man’s previous remarks into his heart, and Feng Zhan was slightly relieved.
After the Changfeng a.s.sociation’s president waited for the Golden Jade League’s envoy to leave the hall, he coughed lightly, got up and announced, “Well, now that the battle with the Golden Jade League has been set, I now announce that the senior apprentice of my daughter, Wei Zhong, has agreed to join our Changfeng a.s.sociation, and he will be promoted to the high rank guests. He is determined to have a good relationship with our a.s.sociation. He will become one of the representatives of this battle. As for the other two representatives of the battle, it will be Fan and Qu, two vice presidents. Does anyone have any opinions?”
Everyone at the scene looked at each other. Naturally, no one would object to it.
Fan Zheng and Qu Ling looked at each other, and they also remained silent.
Naturally, Liu and Xin would not express any opinions.
The two of them are busy with the deep sea trip and detoxification that was half a month later. Of course, they couldn’t voice out and make themselves distinguished now.
So the matter was settled on the spot.
After everyone discussed the specific matters related to battle for a while, Feng Zhan announced that the meeting would end here.
Everyone immediately bade farewell and walked out from the main entrance.
Liu Ming went out of the hall with everyone. After saying goodbye to Xin Yuan, he didn’t immediately return to the cave house. Instead, he flew to the other side of the island.
After a while, he landed in front of a seemingly desolate valley.
The entire valley was built of crimson boulders. He could clearly sense the heat emanating from inside the door that was far away.
Liu Ming narrowed his eyes and looked at the valley for a moment, then he strode over.
If he inquired the right information, the guest living here was a Condensation Period early stage cultivator. His cultivation wasn’t high, but he was a well-known forging master here in the headquarters.
