Chapter 1356: Master of Destiny and the Dragon Girl
Um!
Qin Tian was unsure of what he felt at that moment, as if a tremendous force pried open his mouth, and he unexpectedly and unexplainably opened it.
With that open mouth, a flash of light occurred, a cool feeling seeped from his throat into his stomach, from top to bottom, chilling to the bones.
Dumbfounded.
Qin Tian was dumbfounded, Chi Ren was dumbfounded, Bai Xiyue was also dumbfounded!
The Holy Water had been ingested by Qin Tian!
The only one not dumbfounded was Master Madman.
He laughed heartily: "Hahaha, the thousand-year Holy Water, with boundless power, being consumed, what would it feel like? Hahaha, Moon Demon must be pissed off! Before I die, I'll still make you restless, hahaha…"
Laughing hysterically, Master Madman died brutally.
The cave shook violently, the entire cave began collapsing instantly, forcing Qin Tian and the others to evacuate quickly.
After exiting the cave, they stood at the entrance, looking at each other, unsure of what to say.
Qin Tian was still in a bewildered state.
Damn, how did I suddenly swallow the Holy Water? Jeez, this thing glows, can it be eaten?
It didn't have any taste…
"Miss Bai, about the Holy Water…I truly didn't mean to…" Qin Tian explained.
Bai Xiyue looked disappointed, glanced at Qin Tian, yet didn't know what to say.
"At least you broke through the Demon Barrier, otherwise, we'd probably die here today. This Holy Water…sigh!"
Bai Xiyue sighed, looked at Chi Ren, and said: "You personally witnessed this, Qin Tian didn't do it on purpose, it was that Master Madman…"
"Guardian Bai, we saw it with our own eyes, we will definitely report truthfully, no need for you to worry." Chi Ren said.
Qin Tian thought for a moment and asked: "So, I have a question, is the Holy Water poisonous? Does consuming it have any side effects? Um…if you don't mind, maybe I could try eating some leeks to expel it and return it to you…"
As Qin Tian spoke, both Bai Xiyue and Xue Yao frowned.
"The Holy Water is protected by a True Qi Shield, normally unbreakable. Master Crazy exhausted his effort to break that shield, and the Holy Water became no different than regular water drops. Once you've consumed it, I'm afraid…it's digested." Chi Ren said.
Qin Tian rolled his eyes: "Damn, can this thing be eaten?"
Bai Xiyue said: "Holy Water is uniquely rare, no one has ever consumed it, you're currently the only one in the world."
Qin Tian clicked his tongue: "Alright, I understand, let me cry for a bit first."
The group returned along the original route, and a few hours later, they emerged from the Ghost Forest. Upon emerging, they saw the ground around the grand hall, in ruins, bodies strewn everywhere, a river of blood!
As Qin Tian was shocked, he saw that almost every corpse had Poison Spiders and Poison Scorpions crawling, tearing at flesh!
The scene was extremely disgusting!
Moreover, those Poison Spiders and Poison Scorpions were almost as large as a fist, causing one to shudder!
"These people are Immortality Cultivators, how could they be bitten by such small poisonous creatures?" Qin Tian questioned.
Bai Xiyue seemed unfazed, took out several pills from the Storage Bag, and distributed them to Qin Tian, Xue Yao…everyone took one.
"There is a colorless and tasteless poison in the Underground Palace, typically after staying for one hour, the poison activates, leading to death within half an hour. What we just took was the antidote, let's go."
Bai Xiyue's mood seemed dull and she said nothing more.
But Qin Tian was curious: "We've been here quite a while, why didn't we get poisoned?"
Chi Ren said: "We didn't stay in the palace for an hour, outside the palace, the poison is relatively weaker, within the Ghost Forest, there is essentially no poison."
"So…you knew there was poison here and watched the Treasure Hunters swarming into this place, without warning them?" Qin Tian was surprised.
Chi Ren said nothing, Bai Xiyue also remained silent, Qin Tian chuckled bitterly, thinking, indeed, this woman is truly ruthless!
Through teleportation, Qin Tian and the others returned to the plaza in front of the Ghost Wall.
At that moment, two people were standing on the plaza.
"Master, sister!"
Seeing those two, Xue Yao immediately became excited.
These two were an elderly man in black clothes leaning on a dragon-headed cane, and…an absolutely beautiful woman in purple clothes!
"You mischievous girl, wandering around, do you realize how worried your sister was?" The old man in black kindly said to Xue Yao.
"Oh come on, I was just out having fun, no one could hurt me. See, I'm perfectly fine?" Xue Yao went up for a warm bear hug with the old man in black.
Bai Xiyue then led Chi Ren and the others forward respectfully saluting the old man and the woman in purple: "Greetings, Master Tianji, Dragon Maiden!"
"Guardian Bai, no need for formalities." Master Tianji smiled lightly.
The woman in purple also nodded, acknowledging them.
Qin Tian stood from a distance, observing the pair. Master Tianji, Dragon Maiden…these names, seem familiar from that Qilin Mountain Sect's book, how peculiar. Could it be that these two are prominent figures of the Spiritual Domain?
He looked at the absolutely gorgeous woman in purple, inhaling deeply, Dragon Maiden…could it be that this long-haired, slender, icy-cold beauty is the East Sea Dragon Clan's Dragon Maiden!?
The East Sea Dragon Clan has always been at odds with the Tianyuan Dynasty, and this Dragon Maiden is a renowned figure within the Dragon Clan!
Yet, this woman doesn't appear more than thirty or even twenty-five or six...how could she be a famous figure in the Spiritual Domain?
Qin Tian was puzzled, then worried. He's barely considered a disciple of the Tianyuan Dynasty's Cultivation Immortality Sect. This group could either be Demon Sect or Dragon Clan, both are adversaries of the Tianyuan Dynasty. I'm here, feeling like I've walked into a den of wolves!
However, at this moment, neither Master Tianji nor Dragon Maiden seemed to notice Qin Tian, or perhaps noticed him but didn't care to engage.
Xue Yao asked Dragon Maiden: "Sister, why did you come here with Master?"
Dragon Maiden still remained silent, but Master Tianji laughed: "Mischievous girl, your sister was worried about you, how could we not come? Haha, moreover half a month ago, I foresaw something significant would happen here, so I came along... Xue Yao, what did you deduce from the thunder prophecy?"
"A demon comes from the east, Flying Dragon in the Sky!" Xue Yao answered as if doing homework, "Master, did I deduce it correctly?"
"Haha, not bad, you've improved."
Master Tianji, clad in a black robe, looking like a wizard, praised Xue Yao while finally casting his mysterious gaze under the black robe towards Qin Tian several meters away.
