Chaos Heavenly Emperor Technique

Chapter 1213: Chapter 1214: Poison Triggered! (4 Updates)

Finally, the group arrived before the last bronze door. Lady Zhu Qu pointed at the hidden door ahead and said in a deep voice, “Back then, this was the only hidden door I hadn’t opened. According to legend, the Timeless Spring lies just beyond this door.”

“And some cultivation materials left behind by ancient cultivators. Although tens of thousands of years have passed, some precious refining materials may still be intact. If luck is on our side, there might even be secret technique manuals from ancient times!”

Lady Zhu Qu’s words were undeniably alluring, instantly stirring the emotions of the Bald Blade Emperor and the others.

Having braved such immense risks, it was finally time for the final harvest.

However, when the group combined their efforts to open the bronze door, they found a sealing inside.

Behind the seal was a terrifying demon.

Everyone’s expressions changed dramatically.

At that moment, a familiar voice came from behind Ling Feng. Lady Zhu Qu stepped forward, her eyes filled with madness, saying with extreme ferocity, “Everyone, accept your fate. You all ingested my Nine Revolutions Calming Elixir, and now, it should be taking effect, shouldn’t it?”

Ling Feng’s eyelids twitched slightly. Suddenly, his whole body went limp, unable to stand steadily. His face turned ashen, cold sweat dripped continuously from his forehead, and a wisp of dark energy floated across his cheeks.

“How is this possible?”

Ling Feng looked at Lady Zhu Qu with a mix of suspicion and disbelief in his eyes.

“Heh heh, boy, even though you’re a high-level alchemist, my elixir didn’t contain any toxins. The Nine Revolutions Calming Elixir, combined with the unique fragrance of the Heavenly Thunder Spirit Liquid, creates a special poison blend. This, perhaps, is something even you, as a high-level alchemist, could not foresee!”

Lady Zhu Qu sneered, taking step by step towards Ling Feng, “Boy, you’re smart and resourceful, even helping other Human Emperors recover their elemental power. But how could you know that my true goal was never about any treasure!”

“You!”

Ling Feng collapsed to the ground, raising a finger at Lady Zhu Qu, his voice strained with gritted teeth, “Lady Zhu Qu, I never expected you to fall so low as to collude with that demon!”

“What demon!”

Lady Zhu Qu glared coldly at Ling Feng, roaring loudly, “What do you mean by demon? Whoever can help resurrect my husband is my divine! I have searched the world for famous doctors, but all those so-called Daoist Doctors were useless!”

“Only my master can help me! My master promised that if I helped him break free, he would give me the Timeless Spring to revive my husband! Even if it means going to hell, turning into a devil, so be it if I can save my husband!”

Lady Zhu Qu’s eyes were filled with madness as she cackled wildly.

“You’re utterly foolish! Do you think he can really help you? To these demons, humans are nothing more than food. Would he help you save your husband? You’re living in a dream!”

Ling Feng’s brows furrowed deeply. Indeed, as Yang Shuzi had said, this Lady Zhu Qu had become obsessed for the sake of her deceased husband, for an unattainable illusion.

She would even believe the words of such an evil demon!

“Don’t slander my master!”

Lady Zhu Qu’s eyes turned blood red, her face fierce, “My master would never lie to me, never!”

“You’re insane, completely mad!”

Ling Feng raised his eyes to stare at Lady Zhu Qu, his mind racing for a way to escape.

“Heh heh heh! Don’t blame me, blame your own greed.”

Lady Zhu Qu, looking deranged, sneered, “The most hateful is that damned Yang Shuzi. He evaded me for ten years, a whole ten years before I managed to regain the Netherworld Tongxuan Sword from him; otherwise, I wouldn’t have been able to breach the sword array outside the cabin!”

“Originally, I wanted to lure him into the trap, but he outright refused. Who knew you, a fool, would deliver yourself to me? It’s fate that you become Yang Shuzi’s scapegoat!”
