Chapter 397: Thousand People Vomiting Blood
Seven thousand people halted instantaneously, all with looks of terror on their faces.
"This... this is..."
"I've been poisoned!"
"All are Spirit Poisons, I've been poisoned by six thousand types, pu..."
"Dammit, I've been poisoned by eight thousand kinds!"
"Mom, I'm so scared, this place is terrifying!"
...
Everyone was wailing; these were Spirit Poisons concocted by tens of thousands of Spiritual Pharmacists, the least afflicted had nearly three thousand types.
Even if these Spirit Poisons were not highly ranked, the sheer number was overwhelming—thousands of types, even if cured one-by-one, would take an exceedingly long time.
Moreover, to counteract the Spirit Poisons laid by Spiritual Pharmacists, one basically had to seek a Spiritual Pharmacist.
More than seven thousand people were poisoned; where could so many Spiritual Pharmacists be found?
Oh Heaven, it's unknown among these Spirit Poisons if there are any particularly fierce ones. If there are those with exceptionally great potency, that really would be fatal.
"Hey, didn't you just say the Blast Array was trash?" Hao Cang smirked, his face twisted in a sinister smile.
"Tricked by the trashy Blast Array, seems even trashier than trash," Eric also couldn't help but burst into laughter.
Seven thousand cultivators had grievances they couldn't voice; do you think we wanted this? How would we know that all the materials in this Blast Array were made from Spirit Poisons?
Utterly mad, absolutely lunatic!
Damn it, Spirit Poisons also need to be concocted from Spirit Plants, aren't Spirit Plants costly? The Spirit Poisons used in this huge Blast Array must add up to tens of thousands!
Tens of thousands of Spirit Poisons, just thinking about it makes one feel~~pain.
Actually, speaking of it Tang Rao feels quite embarrassed; of these ten thousand Spirit Poisons, he only concocted two thousand himself, the other eight thousand were from Chen Tuan's Space Ring.
Although Chen Tuan is not a Spiritual Pharmacist, and is an upright person, he seemed to enjoy collecting various Spirit Poisons, truly a puzzling hobby.
The seven thousand people all looked to Mei Fanghua, you're the leader, tell us what to do.
At this moment, Mei Fanghua's face was completely lost, she had never expected the Blast Array was entirely made of Spirit Poisons.
Even she herself was laden with three thousand types of Spirit Poisons.
These Spirit Poisons were blasted into their bodies at extreme speed through the Blast Array, leaving no time for reaction or defense.
"Which Spiritual Pharmacist set up this Array?" Mei Fanghua stepped forward, her gaze sweeping over Tang Rao and the others.
In her view, the Array must have been set by that group.
Most likely it was those two still undergoing the Heavenly Tribulation baptism; these two were definitely capable of reaching the pinnacle of the Transcendental phase.
The pinnacle of the Transcendental phase Spiritual Pharmacist, just the thought causes a headache.
"You're called Mei Fanghua, right?" Tang Rao stepped forward, staring at Mei Fanghua with a cold gaze.
"Yes, who are you?" Mei Fanghua looked at Tang Rao, her brows slightly furrowed.
She couldn't see through the Realm of the person in front of her, could he also be at the pinnacle of Transcendence?
If he is, along with Hao Cang and those two undergoing Heavenly Tribulation, that would make four at the pinnacle of Transcendence, not a small force at all.
Even in the Central Emperor Realm, there are only four or five cultivators at the peak of Transcendence.
"Didn't you ask who set up this Array? It was me," Tang Rao stated indifferently.
Mei Fanghua frowned at Tang Rao; for some reason, she really disliked the person before her, there was something about his aura that made her very uncomfortable.
"I won't waste words with you, what will it take for you to remove the Spirit Poison from us?" Mei Fanghua asked.
"Since you are so straightforward, I will not beat around the bush either. As long as you die, I will naturally detoxify everyone for you. What do you think?" Tang Rao looked at Mei Fanghua with a cold smirk curling at the corners of his mouth.
What!
Everyone from the Seventy-two Domains across the Nine Realms looked at Tang Rao incredulously. Has this guy gone mad? Are you suggesting that Mei Fanghua should commit suicide?
What a joke, Mei Fanghua would definitely not agree.
"Do you think that's possible?" Mei Fanghua sneered disdainfully. Me die so others may live? Do you think I, Mei Fanghua, am the kind of person who would sacrifice herself for others?
"Since you think it's impossible, let's forget it. You are powerful, at the pinnacle of overcoming Heavenly Tribulation, truly impressive. Maybe my Spirit Poison cannot kill you, but it can certainly cause permanent damage to your cultivation. Especially those in the early stages of overcoming tribulation and other cultivators, they might be knocked back to the Mahayana Realm. And those friends in the Mahayana Realm need to be even more cautious, these poisons might be lethal." Tang Rao said with a sly smile.
What!
Lethal substances, and also causing permanent damage to cultivation?
Many people were now looking towards Mei Fanghua.
"What are you looking at? You really think I am going to kill myself? You idiots, just go together and capture that guy, then we'll have him detoxify us!" Mei Fanghua shouted loudly.
Many people thought Mei Fanghua was right. By capturing the Spiritual Pharmacist and applying some interrogation methods, he would naturally become submissive.
"Do you really think a Spiritual Pharmacist is that easy to deal with?" Tang Rao said, laughing while shaking his head, then slowly stretched out his hand and formed a strange handprint.
Puff puff puff puff!
As the handprint finished forming, among the seven thousand cultivators, at least two thousand spurted out blood, a sight indescribably grotesque.
At least, close to two thousand sprays of blood, it was quite a sight to behold.
Never mind the effect, just the spectacle.
Everyone was stunned, their mouths forming an "O".
Really, that scene, it was truly a sight to behold~
Thousands of people looking up and spewing blood, whooshing, one could mistake it for some peculiar ritual of the Seventy-two Domains.
After the blood-spraying, everyone's Spiritual Energy significantly weakened.
"See? This is how awesome a Spiritual Pharmacist is! Want to try more?" Tang Rao asked with a smile.
Seven thousand people were completely intimidated by Tang Rao, not daring to make a move.
Who knows how many types of Spirit Poison he could trigger! If he triggered dozens or hundreds at once, that would be truly disastrous.
"Damn it, I said we should charge and capture him, everything will naturally be resolved!" Mei Fanghua yelled loudly, completely led by the nose.
This way, it was only going to get more complicated.
Mei Fanghua had never expected things to come to this.
So many cultivators above Mahayana Realm, including nearly a hundred who had overcome tribulation, among them nearly ten at the pinnacle, and yet to end up in such a situation.
This was no longer a disgrace, it was a tragedy!
However, no one paid heed to Mei Fanghua; these cultivators were still shocked by the scene of thousands spewing blood just now.
"Actually, I'd advise you to just head back to the Seventy-two Domains, everyone go back to their own homes and wait to heal up. Once the poison is cleared from your bodies, it won't be too late to come and trouble me then," Tang Rao said with a smile.
With Tang Rao putting it this way, indeed, many began to entertain the idea of retreating.
After all, they had come here without understanding the situation clearly; it seemed just to witness the three cultivators overcoming nine Heavenly Tribulations at the pinnacle of Mahayana.
Now that they had watched, and even offended them, plus getting poisoned, it was truly a fierce ordeal.
Going back did seem like a good option.
"Whoever dares to leave is an enemy of the Central Emperor Realm!" Mei Fanghua roared.
"Central Emperor Realm, oh an enemy of the Central Emperor Realm!" Tang Rao's corners of the mouth fiercely lifted.
