Peerless Divine Doctor

Chapter 1178: Chapter 1178: Toxin with Spiritual Intelligence

Thus, Elder Shi immediately took people and left the Qing List competition.

He even concealed the truth from everyone.

Apart from Elder Ji knowing that Elder Shi hadn’t truly left Mount Tai, everyone else thought that Elder Shi had taken the group away from Mount Tai to deal with matters.

Over several days, Elder Shi relentlessly pursued clues.

Today, with the Blood Demon Sect disciples taking major action, Elder Shi had finally traced them here following the trail.

”Send the signal!”

Elder Shi said to a Tian Group member beside him, at this moment, there were no formidable fighters around Elder Shi. Preventing the Blood Demon Sect’s people from leaving was almost impossible, so Elder Shi could only send a signal.

”Bang!”

Another signal rocket rose into the sky, perhaps others didn’t understand its meaning, but Elder Ji did.

”Quick, support Elder Shi!”

At Elder Ji’s command, he immediately led people to the rear mountain.

Ye Luo, who was right beside Elder Shi, did not hesitate and immediately followed.

”Protect the Divine Dragon Heir!”

The Dragon Pavilion Master hesitated slightly but ultimately decided to go with Ye Luo.

The people from the Snow Palace had already gone to eradicate the infiltrating disciples of the Blood Demon Sect, so they did not go with Ye Luo.

However, Leng Ruobing caught up with Ye Luo’s pace.

It could be said that the entire Mount Tai was in utter chaos, with cries of killing heard everywhere.

Not knowing how many people from the Blood Demon Sect had infiltrated, everyone meticulously searched every nook and cranny.

Ye Luo and Elder Ji quickly reached the place where Elder Shi had sent the signal.

At that moment, Elder Shi was commanding the Tian Group members and War God’s direct subordinates to hold their ground.

The Blood Demon Sect was strong, but since they were trapped in the cave, they couldn’t break out momentarily.

Although it was just a brief delay, it was enough for Ye Luo and others to come to their aid.

”Damn it, it’s people from the Blood Demon Sect!”

Enraged, the Dragon Pavilion Master didn’t wait for anyone’s instructions and charged directly toward the cave.

With the addition of the Dragon Pavilion’s people, Xue Dingtian was virtually unable to escape.

The fierce battle continued, and as the various powers of Mount Tai stabilized, more and more people headed to the cave in the rear mountain to provide support.

It could be said that this time, Xue Dingtian ended up losing more than he hoped to gain.

However, what everyone didn’t expect was, when they stormed into the cave, they found that the one blocking their way was just the Deputy Sect Master Xue Yan from the Blood Demon Sect.

As for Xue Dingtian, he had long disappeared.

”Damn demon sect! How dare they create chaos at my Qing List competition!”

The crowd was indignant, but still, another issue lay before them.

That was the matter of those who were poisoned.

Among these people, not only were there elite disciples from various powers, but also many Elders, and even a Sect Master of a second-tier power had been poisoned.

”Alas, I am incompetent, unable to break this poison!”

A Elixir Sect Elder said, filled with shame.

Several hours had passed, yet no one was able to cure the toxin afflicting these individuals.

Even some medical teams from the secular world were summoned from down the mountain, but to no avail.

”This poison is something I have never encountered before,” Elder Shi lamented. ”The toxin spreads through the entire body but stubbornly lingers in the Sea of Consciousness. Although we can cleanse the toxins from their bodies, they are quickly replenished from those within the Sea of Consciousness, but there’s no way to purge the poison from the Sea of Consciousness itself!”

...

Mount Tai was bustling with activity as the Qing List Conference had to be postponed.

Ye Luo watched all this with a cold eye. It wasn’t that he didn’t want to help; indeed, he had offered to treat the afflicted twice but was rudely rejected and even insulted.

If it weren’t for the pity he felt for their current plight, Ye Luo would have long left.

The disciples from Dragon Pavilion and Snow Palace, who resided with Ye Luo and were better protected, were not poisoned and simply watched from the sidelines.

However, although most people dismissed Ye Luo, there were still those who chose to believe in him. After all, they reasoned that if even the Elixir Sect was helpless against the toxin, they might as well treat a dead horse as if it were alive!

”Ye Luo, I heard you can neutralize this poison, but I wonder if that’s true?”

Ye Luo, sitting idly and watching the Elixir Sect’s disciples chattering away, heard someone speak.

Ye Luo looked up to see an old man standing behind him.

”Who are you?”

Ye Luo asked, puzzled.

”I am the Sect Master of Half Moon Sect. My disciple also caught this poison. I beg for your help, young Ye Luo.”

Half Moon Sect! A sect that couldn’t even be considered a second-rate power, with fewer than thirty members in total.

Yet, out of Half Moon Sect came a prodigy!

The eldest disciple of Half Moon Sect had broken through to the Spirit Sea Realm at just twenty-six years old!

Even surpassing his master in cultivation level.

The inherent weakness of Half Moon Sect meant they always acted diplomatically. This time at the Qing List competition, they managed to secure a spot.

Moreover, the eldest disciple of Half Moon Sect exhibited remarkable True Qi, reaching the top hundred, which brought great honor to Half Moon Sect. Unfortunately, the celebration was short-lived, for their greatest pride soon fell victim to Blood Demon Sect’s poison.

The Sect Master of Half Moon Sect was truly out of options. He could not afford to lose this disciple, for this disciple was their only chance at rising to prominence.

Having had dealings with Dragon Pavilion, and learning from a Dragon Pavilion Elder that Ye Luo could neutralize the poison, the Sect Master approached Ye Luo for help after witnessing the helplessness of the Elixir Sect’s members.

At this moment, many saw the Sect Master of Half Moon Sect’s actions, but scoffed in their hearts.

Especially those from super first-rate powers, who had already decided in their hearts that they would never give Half Moon Sect a way out.

After all, they had already resolved to eliminate Ye Luo. If not for the sudden appearance of the Blood Demon Sect and the fact that Dragon Pavilion’s members were not near Ye Luo just yet, someone would have already attempted to kill Ye Luo.

Yet, to their surprise, Half Moon Sect was actively seeking to align with Ye Luo. In their eyes, Half Moon Sect deserved to die!

Ye Luo was oblivious to all this; had he known, he probably wouldn’t still be on Mount Tai.

At that moment, after hearing the Sect Master of Half Moon Sect and a Dragon Pavilion Elder speak well of him, Ye Luo nodded and responded, ”Alright, bring your disciple over to me then!”

”Very well, Young Ye Luo. Please wait a moment.”

Shortly thereafter, the disciple was carried over to Ye Luo’s side.

With Ye Luo’s capabilities, there was no need for any investigation, so he directly took out a Silver Needle.

Indeed, Blood Demon Sect’s toxin was formidable, rooted in the Sea of Consciousness and hard to disperse. Initially, Blood Demon Sect used it to control others, so it was not something that could be easily expelled.

This toxin had developed spirituality!
