Chapter 1672: Chapter 386: Thousand Poison Brain God Pill and Chen Jie’s Grand Plan (Part 3)

The Thousand Poison Grass entered the Pill Furnace and quickly transformed into medicinal power, absorbed by the Elixir inside the furnace. Compared to crafting a Progress Pill, creating the Thousand Poison Brain God Pill was much easier for Chen Jie, who almost achieved it in one go.

Six pills were completed.

Chen Jie, holding the Thousand Poison Brain God Pill, looked at the four elders in front of him and said, ”Go ahead.”

After speaking, Chen Jie handed one pill to each of the four. Upon receiving the Thousand Poison Brain God Pill, everyone looked grim, their faces heavy, caught in a dilemma of decision-making.

Chen Jie watched them but did not speak.

Chou Niu, looking at the pill in his hand, said, ”I say, are we really going to eat this? I’ve heard that once the Thousand Poison Brain God Pill enter your stomach, it will move to your brain. If you don’t take the antidote in time, the little worm will come out and eat our brains...”

At this point, the burly Chou Niu couldn’t help but shiver. He was terrified at the thought of his brain being eaten.

”Shut up.”

As Chou Niu mentioned brain-eating, Mei Tu shut her eyes and directly swallowed the pill, looking extremely uncomfortable but still consuming it.

Women often have a slightly higher tolerance than men.

Chou Niu widened his eyes and said, ”You really ate it? Aren’t you afraid that the worm will eat your brain?”

”Shut up!”

Mei Tu covered her mouth, preventing herself from vomiting, and snapped angrily.

At this moment, Monkey sighed and also consumed the pill, its bitterness unpleasant.

Seeing Monkey eat the pill as well, Chou Niu was stunned, wanting to speak but unable to, looking towards Chen Long, who was also eyed by Chen Jie.

As Chen Jie’s gaze met his, Chen Long swallowed the Thousand Poison Brain God Pill without saying a word.

He wasn’t stupid, knowing exactly when to do what; the transformation of the dragon and snake was no joke.

Finally, only Chou Niu was left. Looking at the poison pill in his hand, he swallowed hard, trying twice but unable to bring himself to eat it.

Seeing him like this, Chen Jie reached out and forced the poison pill into his mouth.

Woo woo...

”What are you doing?”

Chou Niu glared at Chen Jie, who responded, ”Helping you make a decision. Otherwise, how long are you going to hesitate?”

Chou Niu wanted to erupt but found no point to do so, instead lamenting, ”Now it’s over, the worm’s going to eat my brain flower!”

Chen Jie said, ”You don’t need to worry too much. As long as you listen to me, I’ll give you the antidote regularly. The Brain Worm won’t eat your brains.”

Chou Niu sighed and said, ”Knowing I’d die at the hands of a worm, I shouldn’t have participated in this coup in the first place. I would have been content leading my Chou Niu Hall brothers as an elder.”

Chou Niu was very uncomfortable now, but no one cared about how he felt.

Seeing everyone take the Thousand Poison Brain God Pill, Chen Jie, having completed his control, smiled and said, ”Great, now we’re all on the same side.”

Upon hearing this, the four elders sighed in resignation.

Then, seeing Mei Tu approaching with a smile, said, ”Grandpa Chen, I see there are extra Brain God Pills. Why waste them? Why not...”

Mei Tu glanced towards Du Xiong, implying that he was valuable for control, as his father was Du Zundao.

Chen Jie also looked at Du Xiong. After a brief thought, he gave up; Du Xiong was indeed a good candidate for control, but the cost of controlling him was too high.

Asking the reason:

Success and failure both lie with his father.

Controlling him could, in turn, control Du Zundao, but according to his understanding, Du Zundao was like a sticky plaster, easy to engage with but hard to shake off.

Even though they had enmity, as long as he obtained the Melt God Pill and reached the Melt God Realm, Du Zundao wouldn’t risk his life against him. He’s someone who weighs the pros and cons.

However, if he attacked his son, for the legacy of the Du family, Du Zundao might indeed fight him to the death.

Thinking this way, Chen Jie decided against involving Du Xiong. An opportunity also presented itself as a problem.

Chen Jie gave up the idea of controlling Du Xiong and fell into brief contemplation. The next goal was to obtain the Melt God Pill.

Although he only knew it was in the Ming King Hall, he didn’t know its exact location, making it nearly impossible for him to acquire it in a short time.

The only one who knew the location was Han Ling’er, and she required conditions to tell him where the Melt God Pill was.

The first was to hand over the original of the Qiankun Great Method, which wasn’t difficult since Chen Jie had already mastered it, so there was no need to keep it anymore.

The second was to rescue Liu Futong, who was under arrest, which could also be achieved.

However, with Du Zundao outside, Chen Jie had to carefully plan, but fortunately, he had the card of Du Xiong.

Having thought through everything, Chen Jie spoke, ”Carry Du Xiong and follow me.”

Upon these words, the Ming King Guard immediately stepped forward and carried Du Xiong, while Chen Jie collected all the herbs gathered by the Four Great Elders and Han Ling’er, Liu Caidie, along with the Chang Chun Furnace, into the Storage Ring.

After doing so, Han Ling’er looked at Chen Jie and asked, ”What do we do next?”

Chen Jie replied, ”Get out.”

Han Ling’er narrowed her eyes, saying, ”Du Zundao will surely block the entrance.”

Just then, a Ming King Guard said, ”What’s there to be afraid of? We have Du Xiong. If he dares to act rashly, let him have no offspring.”

Upon hearing this, Liu Caidie said, ”Don’t do anything rash. Du Zundao is not an ordinary person and won’t submit easily. Besides, he’s only fifty and hasn’t lost the ability to father more children; one son is nothing. If he dies, he’ll just have another, so it doesn’t threaten Du Zundao.”
