Hide in The Immortal Cultivation World, Strike Hard in the Martial World
Chapter 174 - 117 Sudden Change_3

"Daoist Chen, please hand me the Array Plate."

"Alright," Chen Yi did not make any unusual movements, and sent a Jade Token out with his mana through the air.

Just as the Jade Token was flying towards Zhao Chengjing,

Suddenly!

A purple figure drilled out of the ground, instantly leapt into the air, and snagged the Array Plate in its jaws before diving back underground, disappearing from sight.

"Purple Sand Mink!"

The young miss sternly scolded, then immediately gave an order:

"Everyone move, catch it!"

However at this moment,

The twenty or so people at the scene suddenly tasted the bitter flavor of a Spirit Medicine,

One by one, they felt their mana stagnate, their heads dizzy and woolly,

Thud! Thud! The cultivators nearby Old Qiu fell to the ground one after another.

As for Chen Yi, the moment he smelled that bitter flavor, his Turtle Breath Magical Power automatically started operating, isolating that poisonous odor from his body.

As expected, Turtle Breath Magical Power had the special effect of detoxifying.

But Chen Yi made no reckless movements, he also staggered and collapsed like others,

He decided to observe the situation first, it's easier to carry out tasks when you are down.

Upon tasting the bitter flavor, the young miss immediately took a Detoxification Pill.

"Hehehe, my clever disciple, this is the Hundred Spirit Decay. You've studied with me for years, so you should know the poison is resistant to ordinary antidotes.

You should surrender now, it could also save you from a lot of pain!"

"So, the spy was you!!"

The young miss's face was icy with icy cold eyes.

Whoosh!

She extended her hand, a blue rope lasso shot out towards Old Qiu.

The middle-tier Magical Instrument, the blue short knife glittered!

"Hmph, my dear disciple, if you don't suppress the poison with your mana, and you still want to resist, even in your prime, I could easily capture you.

Furthermore, that mid-tier Detoxification Pill of yours can, at most, suppress it for a quarter of an hour, if you want to fight now, I'm afraid you won't last even for half a quarter of an hour."

Feeling as relaxed as a fish in water, Old Qiu chuckled and waved out a surge of mana,

Immediately, a green energy light shield enveloped his whole body.

The Mana Shield, a body-protecting spell that can only be practiced at the Late Stage of Qi Cultivation, can fend off most attacks from a Qi Refining Period.

Ding!

The blue rope lasso was blocked by the shield, it immediately shattered, and the short knife hit the shield with a 'ding' sound, and was bounced back. It bounced a few times on the ground, then struggled to fly up, clearly it was unable to attack again.

Only the shield's glow had dimmed a bit,

Stricken by the backlash from the Magical Instrument, Zhao Chengjing's face had turned pale for a moment, and coupled with the attack of the poison in her body, she almost lost her balance.

"Old Qiu, you and I are master and disciple, need some Spirit Medicine, just take it.

Why did you have to poison my Zhao Family's younger generation?!"

In the moment of speaking, Zhao Chengjing exerted her mana a few times to suppress the poison a little, but a trace of fresh blood trickled from the corner of her mouth.

She was somewhat anxious in her heart, fearing that she would not be able to use the spell a few more times. The poison of Hundred Spirit Decay was truly terrifying.

"Humph! I was originally from the Wu Family. Due to the internal strife in the clan years ago, I just came to your Zhao Family to take refuge.

As for the matter of rejoining the Wu Family, it was done years ago. Originally, if your Zhao Family had sensibly given up Spirit Fish Island, there wouldn't have been so many disputes.

But now, not only are you not giving up, your Zhao Family wants to seek help from the Tan Family by selling its daughter.

Of course, I can't sit back and watch,

Today, not only will I kill all of these younger generations of Zhao Family with potential, take your Zhao Family's high-grade Spirit Medicine, but I will also take you as the bargaining chip for the deal with the Tan Family!"

Seeing that Zhao Chengjing didn't dare to act, Old Qiu naturally was not anxious,

The longer it was dragged on, the more deeply the poison of the Hundred Spirit Decay would infiltrate, and when he made his move it would naturally be much easier.

"Hehe, it's been more than a dozen years, I didn't expect this little girl to come out and be so upright, no wonder the third son of the Tan Family was moved,

Even I'm somewhat reluctant to kill you."

Ogle for the beauty of Zhao Chengjing, a trace of desire showed in Old Qiu's eyes.

Whoosh! Bang!

He waved his sleeve, a yellow rope appeared, instantly enlarged, and instantly wrapped around Zhao Chengyu with a flash of yellow glow!

She didn't know what material the yellow rope was made of, but the moment it came close, Zhao Chengjing felt her mana stagnate, and it became difficult to mobilize.

She hurriedly slapped her Storage Bag, a small stone shield flew out, rapidly magnified, blocking her in front.

Another mid-tier magical instrument, the Black Stone Shield!

The rope wound around the stone shield a couple of times, and, finding no gaps to exploit, it began to wriggle around the stone shield,

Creak!

There was a grating sound upon the intersection of two Magical Instruments,

While the stone shield was a stout instrument by nature, capable of resisting any sharp attacks, it was not very good at resisting the wrapping and twisting of ropes.

Moreover, that yellow rope could actually forbid mana, and

In a short time, the dark glow on stone shield grew dimmer, and it obviously couldn't hold on for much longer,

Zhao Chengjing's eyebrows furrowed deeply, she hurriedly took a high-grade Qi Supplement Pill, and her mana immediately surged,

The dark glow on the stone shield flared up, managing to resist temporarily,

But the creaking sound continued, with the yellow rope constantly eroding at the black stone shield, a single high-grade Qi Supplement Pill was obviously not going to last long.

"Heh, my dear disciple, why don't you surrender and just follow me back to Wu Family? I guarantee you I'm not inferior to the third son of the Tan Family!"

With clenched teeth, Zhao Chengjing's face held an unwilling expression.

"Heh, found you!"

Lying on the ground, Chen Yi muttered to himself quietly,

Then suddenly he struck a magic formula, instantly the Great Array covering the hospital sent a beam of yellow light into the sky, causing a huge explosion.

"Signal Skill!"

Both Old Qiu and Zhao Chengjing turned around to look but saw Chen Yi holding a Jade Token in his hand having just completed his spell,

The Jade Token was actually the Array Plate of this hospital's Grand Array!

"You youngster, you didn't die? Wasn't that Array Plate just stolen? How is it still in your hands?"

A look of surprise flashed across Old Qiu's cadaverous face.

The Hundred Spirit Decay would attach itself leech-like to any mana it encountered and erode it till nothing was left. A regular mid-stage Qi Refining cultivator simply couldn't resist it, yet Chen Yi did not seem to be affected.

"Hmph, I am an Alchemist too. I noticed something was wrong with you early on, so I stayed so far away from you. How could I be deeply poisoned by you?"

As for the Array Plate, of course Chen Yi had sensed something was off. When he handed over the Array Plate, he had a backup plan, trusting no one but himself.
