Chapter Thirty: Only When Poisoned Does One Shine

Besides looking filthy, this roll of parchment gave off a strange, sour stench, as though it had been soaked in swill.
Still, Ji Mo did not refuse. His strength was truly far too weak at present, and he needed a suitable environment to stimulate his heartbeat.
Gu Sheng’s pale hand trembled as she tried to pick up her coat and drape it over herself, but it was soiled with blood and could no longer be worn.
Moreover, as Chu Feng’s fiancée, deep down she even harbored a faint sense of anticipation.
It was not only Brother Fa who had taught her so many techniques. Her former boyfriends had taught her quite a few as well. Added together, the techniques taught by all those boyfriends certainly numbered in the dozens.
It had to be said that when Lin Fan had just awakened to the second level, the strength he had expended moments earlier recovered in an instant, as though he had come back to life at full health.
When the time came that they could no longer avoid saying goodbye, the two agreed to turn around together and not look at each other’s departing figure. Yet neither of them managed to keep their promise.
Ji Mo finally understood that Liu Yueyao had only sent him to buy snacks to get him out of the way. It was not that she had suddenly developed a liking for snacks.
The machine was connected to the anime on Tang Manman’s right hand, continuously pumping blood into it under pressure. Her left hand was connected to another machine in the same manner.
Ao Yunxin felt relieved inwardly and thought, This person really saw through me long ago. Still, it is only natural that the Concealing-Heaven Pearl could not deceive someone of such stature.
To prove that he had truly eaten properly this time, Wen Mu deliberately took photographs of the porridge and rice he had prepared and sent them to him. Only then was he satisfied.
Upon hearing this, Chu Mofeng’s nose stung, and he nodded solemnly. Then he mounted his horse and headed toward the southern gate of the city. After arriving at the carriage and horse station, he obtained a horse for Ziyuan, and the group immediately left Yanzhou at full gallop, racing toward Chang’an.
He had subdued the Eight Great Ancient Clans, crushed Saint King Zhen Chen beneath one foot, and even frightened Ye Xiaoyao, the Holy Son from the Sacred Spirit Holy Land, into retreat.
As a matter of fact, ever since he killed Jiao Hai, he had already fallen out completely with the Cave of the Three Stars beneath the Slanting Moon on Spirit Platform Square-Inch Mountain. There was no possibility of reconciliation anymore.

Tearful Tofu spoke in a childish, milky voice. Unexpectedly, as she continued, tears began gathering in her eyes again, frightening Cai Yuanyao into stuffing another wild fruit into her mouth.
“Slaughtering Ghost, I have decided not to interfere in this matter today. What will you choose to do?” Hai Ji asked the Slaughtering Ghost behind her.
“As for Erlang of the Right Army, someone will naturally take care of him for me. Do you think being a vanguard commander is so easy? The Emperor has more important business for you now. Back then, I sent nearly all the talented descendants of the Right Army clans to Huaxia. It has been so long—have they found the sacrificial altar I seek?”
She raised her head unconsciously to look at him. He was still smiling, and their gazes met. She immediately lowered her eyes again.
“Then allow this humble one to help Erlang out of his clothes.”
The oil lamp on the table was blown out, and the room instantly sank into silent darkness.
As the other half of the sharp sword clanged to the ground, Ji Jiamin’s pupils contracted, and astonishment spread across her face.
Hearing this, Long Kun nodded and began changing clothes right in front of Long Chen.
The guard’s expression was cold. After glancing at Mu Qibing, he could already tell from his words that Mu Qibing was an ordinary person, and his tone became even more indifferent.
Colson immediately followed him out. Someone coming to look for them at a time like this meant that something had almost certainly gone wrong inside the base.
Ji Jiamin trembled all over upon hearing this. She cried out inwardly in panic, How could he know what I was thinking?
They walked outward along the enormous bronze gate. This road was the only route in and out of the Purgatory Training Camp.
Annie had blocked the stream of true essence Staff had sprayed over moments earlier. Once she had steadied herself, she quickly flew up to help Alice and Rees.
Lin Rui drove Bai Xue out with just a few words. Bai Li was always uneasy, and now, seeing Zhang Ting’s calm and composed demeanor, she felt that Zhang Ting was far too confident.
He felt that if Iron Man started fighting this thing in the middle of the street, even his aura of coolness would be dragged down several levels.

Demon crystals were truly precious things. They contained the spiritual energy of the five elements, and the higher the grade of the demon crystal, the purer that energy was. A tenth-tier demon crystal, for example, was an exceptionally beneficial treasure to cultivators. In the cultivation world, such items had always been priceless and nearly impossible to obtain.
“Hey, what do you mean by that? You are not the head of human resources. This is hardly something you need to meddle in, is it?”
Wu Zijuan instinctively objected. She knew perfectly well that she and Tao Ran had never been involved in anything. She had only dragged him in temporarily to pretend to be her boyfriend. How could she let him be fired over this?
Yun Tu was sent flying directly outward. Without feeling anything at all, a flash of seven-colored light passed around his body, and he was already outside the barrier.
Jute One seemed somewhat frightened as well and retreated step by step. The colors of the three flying knives all changed until they resembled flames, like three blazing masses of fire.
However, Besimo was ultimately a supreme genius from the Netherworld. His strength was formidable and his methods strange; there was no guarantee that he would not discover the Void Drift. To be safe, he still had his avatar monitor Bruce, whose strength was the weakest.
“At last, I have cultivated my Boundary Body to the peak of the second stage. My physical body has reached the ninth level of the Primordial Realm, and my defensive power is already close to that of a first-grade divine artifact!”
Bal’s face lit up with delight. After his Boundary Body had reached the peak of the second stage, his physical defenses had attained an astonishing level.
Fortunately, his senior brother happened to lift the front of his robe and sit down with his head lowered. Qian Liu abruptly raised the bronze cauldron beside his feet with one hand, grabbed a sack of spiritual rice haphazardly with the other, and hurried toward the nearest corner in three quick strides.
Cang Luocheng sent the silver back to the palace, but the emperor did not see her at all, saying only that he had already gone to sleep. He did, however, reward Cang Luocheng with a chessboard, which Gao Yong personally brought to her.
Eleven days earlier, he had received a secret message from Elder Wei stating that the fourth batch of disciples had also arrived safely at the edge of the Cloudmist Mountains.
Wang Chongshi also cupped his fists in salute from horseback and said, “Young Master, rest assured. So long as I, Wang Chongshi, still draw breath, I will never allow a single enemy soldier to set foot inside the city.”
With that, Wang Chongshi led the other generals to inspect the defenses at the city gate.
Cultivators pursued the Dao while racing against time. Under such conditions, how could anyone remain unmoved?
Of course, there were also many cultivators from other sects in the Western Lands. This was because Buddhist practitioners were not hostile to outsiders and accepted doctrines different from their own. Yet if you spent too long among those countless monks, who could guarantee that you would not be assimilated by them?
