Soul Emperor Martial God

Chapter 1886: Chapter 1886: Poison Secret Realm

”Hmph.” Senior Luoo let out a cold snort.

Looking at Bai Changtian’s carefree attitude, focused solely on drinking, his eyes were filled with dissatisfaction and coldness.

”Drink, all you can do is drink.”

”My first disciple didn’t learn much of my skills, but his drinking prowess has become unparalleled.”

Bai Changtian seemed accustomed to such cold looks and was indifferent; he took another sip and smiled.

”Perhaps, this is something I pride myself on.”

”When it comes to drinking, I’m afraid even you, Master, can’t compare to me...”

”So you feel very proud?” Senior Luoo’s tone shifted from dissatisfaction to anger.

Seeing this, Bai Changtian chuckled, wisely put away the wine jug, and quickly changed the subject, ”Master, within that Secret Realm, there’s that character.”

”You let Xiao Xun in, aren’t you afraid...”

Bai Changtian’s tone carried a hint of concern.

”Afraid of what?” Senior Luoo coldly interrupted.

”If that boy can’t even handle this, then let him die directly within the Black Demon Hall Main Hall.”

”It saves the Black Demon Hall from losing more Main Hall Masters, Vice Hall Masters, and the like without reason.”

”And it prevents him from going out causing chaos everywhere, stirring upheaval across regions with blood and chaos.”

...

On the other side, within the Secret Realm.

Thud...

Xiao Yi’s figure heavily crashed to the ground.

If he had heard Senior Luoo’s words just now, he probably would have immediately cursed.

He causing chaos everywhere? Making various regions blood rain and windy storms?

Were it not for the fact that in every main and sub hall of the Black Demon Hall, the scum was caught in masses, could they constantly trouble him? Could they make him a bloodbath along the way?

Of course, Xiao Yi finally understood why the Black Demon Hall, one of the Eight Palaces, had fallen to such a state.

It turns out the Master of the Main Hall was actually Senior Luoo.

Then it all made sense.

Back at Black Cloud Academy, Senior Luoo was merely a hands-off manager, leaving everything to the Vice Dean to handle.

But that was an academy, a place for teaching Martial Arts.

So the Academic Elders and Martial Arts Teachers there still knew the severity of matters.

Moreover, those Martial Arts Teachers, whether it was Hui Deacon, Senior Yun Yuan, Elder Hei Xuan, or Elder Jingfeng, were all individuals with stories.

They were more low-key.

But here at the Black Demon Hall, with the saying ”the example of those above affects those below,” the Master of the Main Hall was like this, never seen, ignoring the hall’s affairs; one can imagine what the other Main Hall Masters were like.

The Main Hall here might be slightly better.

After all, those who enter the Main Hall and become Main Hall Masters must treat the Eight Palaces as their faith.

However, without a resident Master of the Main Hall, significant matters cannot be directly decided.

Each Main Hall Master in the Main Hall cannot decisively resolve issues, let alone lead the other regional Main Halls.

Hence, it’s natural that in the external regional Main Halls, a lot of dissipated individuals emerged.

Consequently, with the Main Hall Masters leading, down to Sub Hall Masters, Chief Stewards, the Law Enforcement Team, etc., all became tattered and ineffective.

There were even factions forming, disregarding hall rules.

Perhaps, before dying, Jingzhe Palace Master and Golden Iron Hall Master thought, even if disregarding the Black Demon Hall’s rules, what of it? No one from the Main Hall would investigate anyway.

No serious investigation for violating hall rules, no comprehensive pursuit.

Even if the Main Hall investigates, it would probably only be a formality.

Over the years, the consequences were inevitable.

And most importantly, the Black Demon Hall, being one of the Eight Palaces, was an undisputed giant on the continent.

Naturally, with such a strong backing, those Main Hall Masters, Sub Hall Masters, and their ilk became arrogant and domineering.

Forming alliances and disregarding hall rules became effortless, casually getting involved.

”Ugh.” At this moment, Xiao Yi groaned.

His body was perpetually in severe pain.

Crashing heavily on the ground, one can imagine the feeling.

Even if not injured, Luoo’s palm strike bashed him into flying, making it impossible for him to stand his ground.

Xiao Yi stood up, steadied himself, and began to observe the surroundings.

In front of him was a forest.

Judging by its size, it should be vast, as Xiao Yi’s senses couldn’t cover the entire forest.

”Hmm?” Xiao Yi’s brows gradually furrowed.

The sky of the entire Secret Realm was covered in dense black clouds.

Within the black clouds, there was no lightning, no thunderstorms.

It was merely pure sinister black clouds.

Yet, the pressure from these black clouds permeated the whole Secret Realm, creating an oppressively intense, exceedingly heavy atmosphere.

Xiao Yi felt a heavy weight in his heart.

But his aura was pulsating, boiling.

In the air, wisps of poisonous gas permeated thickly.

Xiao Yi continued to scan his surroundings, his gaze suddenly froze, then his pupils contracted.

A few meters away from his side, a seemingly ordinary tree, over a dozen meters high, caught his eye.

Xiao Yi flashed his figure, arriving in front of the tree.

After a few meticulous glances, his face showed sudden joy, ”A Poison Dao Miracle Tree, it truly is a Poison Dao Miracle Tree.”

This seemingly unimpressive tree was actually a Poison Dao Miracle Tree.

As an Alchemist, Xiao Yi naturally knew that this Poison Dao Miracle Tree, despite its ordinary appearance, contained an immense Poison Dao Power.

A Martial Artist of the Saint Emperor Realm would suffer rotting flesh upon contact with a whiff of its aura.

If mistakenly ingested, even a Peak of Saint Emperor Realm would face a tragic end.

The Poison Dao Miracle Tree could be considered a Heavenly Materials and Earthly Treasures, or not.

If considered, its tier would rank among treasures of Great Power.

This tree could be used as a poison, or refined into a pill for saving lives, with extremely potent effects.

”Hmm?” Xiao Yi’s gaze moved past the Poison Dao Miracle Tree, landing on a fruit several meters beyond.

Xiao Yi’s gaze froze again.

Flashing his figure, he moved beside the fruit.

”Thousand Poison Red Fruit?” Xiao Yi was once more delighted.

Whoosh... Xiao Yi’s figure flashed again, arriving several meters away.

”Three-Thousand Burning Refining Grass, hissing, its age must be over ten thousand years.” Xiao Yi looked at the vibrantly colored grass underfoot, inhaling a cold breath.

Tracing beyond the Three-Thousand Burning Refining Grass, the ground gradually became a land filled with dense poison.

Further back was a peculiarly poisonous marshland.

The further in, the thicker the poisonous aura became, and the more eerie the atmosphere.

Whoosh...

Xiao Yi’s figure continuously flickered forward.

”Thousand Spider Evil Fruit, tsk tsk.”

”Poison Absolute One Leaf Flower.” Xiao Yi’s eyes widened, ”At least over a hundred thousand years.”

”Legendary Heavenly Materials and Earthly Treasures, Black Phoenix Yan Dao Wood.” Xiao Yi had already taken a sharp intake of breath.

Surveying the surroundings, Xiao Yi’s heart filled with joy.

If his guess was correct, this Secret Realm was like the Heavenly Hidden Secret Realm, an outside realm lush with Heavenly Materials and Earthly Treasures.

However, here, they were all Poison Dao-related Heavenly Materials and Earthly Treasures.

And, this Secret Realm must certainly be of a higher tier than the Heavenly Hidden Secret Realm, and existed for much longer.

The Black Phoenix Yan Dao Wood would take at least fifty thousand years to become wood, a legendary class of Heavenly Materials and Earthly Treasures.

And this is probably not even the first treasure within this Secret Realm.
