Chapter 1094: Ancestor, Spare Me (Part 2)

Library of Heaven's Path · 第1094章 祖师饶命(下)

Although the girl on the stage had a physique somewhat resembling the Innate Poison Body, no one had ever seen such a physique before, so its authenticity could not be verified.

Just as Protector Shen had found the World Heritage Poison Code, he discovered the Innate Poison Body and even claimed her as the founding ancestor... Anyone who heard this would find it hard to believe, as if it were a deliberate confrontation.

"Heh, the Innate Poison Body, also known as the Calamity Body, if left unchecked, will involuntarily release deadly poison. I don't need to explain this—everyone here knows it, right? Although this young lady is unconscious, the deadly poison has been continuously releasing... If Protector Shen doesn't believe me, he can gather this poison gas and see if he can withstand it! If even you, a Nine-Star Poison Master, cannot endure it, then I'm afraid no further proof is needed, is it?"

Lin Jianghai smiled lightly.

Although he no longer had the pill as physical evidence, the poison gas emanating from the girl before him was the best proof.

Emitted from flesh and soul, it was nothing in a short time, but if absorbed in large quantities, even a Nine-Star Poison Master would find it hard to resist.

Being able to emit such power meant it could not be faked.

"This..."

Shen Que was taken aback.

With his insight and experience, he could naturally tell whether this girl was truly an Innate Poison Body. However, with the high position within reach and the possibility of becoming the Hall Master, once he admitted it, it might fall into someone else's hands.

That was something he was unwilling to do.

"Since you've conjured up an Innate Poison Body, you naturally have to disguise it well, preparing deadly poison in advance. Once Protector Shen absorbs it, he might fall into your trap... There's no need to bring out such petty tricks!"

Venerable Wang sneered.

"Yes, others may not know, but I do. If you don't want to die, just say so. It's laughable that you pretended to be righteous before. The Poison Hall truly misjudged you..." Venerable He also sneered.

"You don't need to deliberately change the subject and put me in an unjust position! If the Innate Poison Body were easy to fake, our Poison Hall wouldn't have been fragmented for so many years!" Lin Jianghai waved his hand. "Whether this young lady is genuine or not, we can summon the spirits of our past ancestors and let them make a fair judgment!"

Like the Master Teacher Academy, the Poison Hall had preserved the spirits of its illustrious ancestors. If they couldn't confirm, they could summon them.

The spirits of the ancestors would not lie and had no personal feelings, so they could render a fair judgment.

"There's no need to summon the ancestors for such a trivial matter. Isn't it just to know if she is an Innate Poison Body? Very simple—I'll check if she has been poisoned..."

Shen Que frowned and looked over.

He could confirm that the girl before him was an Innate Poison Body. Once the ancestors were summoned and confirmed it, even if he had gone through great pains to find the World Heritage Poison Code, the position of Hall Master would have nothing to do with him.

His strength was formidable, but compared to a bizarre physique like the Innate Poison Body, he was far inferior.

Boom!

As his words ended, Shen Que lunged straight at Wei Ruyan.

Whoosh!

Supported by true energy, the girl slowly rose, standing quietly in the air with eyes tightly shut, like a sleeping beauty.

"Let me have a look..."

Shen Que's primordial spirit flickered and immediately spread toward Wei Ruyan. A trace of murderous intent flashed in his eyes as a subtle thought silently drilled into the girl's body.

He intended to kill the girl under the guise of inspection.

Once this person died, no matter how well spoken, it would all be false.

Founding ancestor, Innate Poison Body—none of it would matter.

Afterward, he could blame Lin Jianghai, claiming that he had used too much poison to fake the Innate Poison Body, causing the girl's death.

After all, the girl had been unconscious since her appearance; even if she died, no one could argue.

His movements were very subtle, and Lin Jianghai never expected that the Right Protector of the Poison Hall would be so despicable as to kill the founding ancestor in front of everyone, so he didn't notice his little trick.

Whoosh!

The moment this thought entered the girl's body, it rushed toward her sea of consciousness in the blink of an eye.

He was a Nine-Star Poison Master, his strength already at an unfathomable level. Although it was just a thought, its power was such that even those at the fifth or sixth level of the Saint Domain could hardly resist.

Swish!

Arriving deep within the sea of consciousness, he saw a girl quietly suspended there, eyes tightly shut, her body continuously emitting faint poison gas.

"It really is an Innate Poison Soul Body..." His pupils contracted, and Shen Que's thought turned even more grim.

The Innate Poison Body was already rare enough, and combined with the Innate Poison Soul Body, if this girl survived, even if he inherited the position of Hall Master, he would not hold it for long before having to abdicate!

Such a person was too terrifying. If she studied poison, she would progress by leaps and bounds, and her strength would increase at an astonishing rate. Even with his strength, he had no advantage before her.

"I've prepared for this position for several hundred years. I won't let you take it away, whoever you are..."

With a cold gaze, Shen Que let out a low cry, his hand turning into a sharp sword that slashed straight at the girl.

The sword light was like lightning, carrying a chilling intent. Even if the girl were awake, she would be unable to withstand it, let alone in her slumber.

Zzzt!

Just as the sword light was about to strike the girl, a powerful aura suddenly emanated from Wei Ruyan's sea of consciousness, followed by surging energy that surged forth and blocked the sword light.

"What?"

Shen Que's pupils contracted, and he saw a figure suddenly appear before him.

It was also a thought, not a primordial spirit, but it carried an aura recognized by heaven and earth, giving a sense of stability like Mount Tai.

"A Heaven-Approved Master Teacher? You are... Master Kong?"

His face darkened, and Shen Que was startled.

He never expected to encounter another person's consciousness here, and a Heaven-Approved Master Teacher at that, which he found hard to believe.

In history, there was only one Heaven-Approved Master Teacher: the Teacher of Ten Thousand Ages. Could this person be him?

"Hmph, daring to lay hands on my student, die!"

The figure narrowed his eyes and grabbed with his hand.

Zzz!

Several thick streams of true energy immediately surged around the girl's sea of consciousness, carrying intense heavenly pressure, as if heaven and earth were meting out punishment.

"No..."

Shen Que's pupils contracted, and he wanted to explain, but it was too late.

This strand of consciousness was like oil meeting a spark, instantly bursting into flames. Before even a scream could be uttered, it was burned to ashes in the blink of an eye.

Pfft!

The moment this consciousness was extinguished, Shen Que, who was examining Wei Ruyan from outside, turned pale and spat out a mouthful of blood.

This was a thought he had carefully torn from his primordial spirit. Being killed, even his main body couldn't react in time and suffered minor injuries.

"Protector Shen..."

Venerable Wang and Venerable He, who had been supporting their 'new Hall Master,' saw him spit blood just from examining the girl and hurried over. Before they could ask what happened, they saw the Right Protector of the Poison Hall with terror in his eyes, as if he had seen a monster.

"Let's go..."

Pale-faced, Shen Que turned to leave, but before he could fly, he felt an invincible aura emanating from the girl, like the collapse of heaven and earth, giving a sense that no matter where he hid, he couldn't escape.

Rumble!

The girl slowly rose into the air, her jet-black hair flowing without wind, her tightly shut eyes, combined with the continuously emitting poison gas, giving an extremely eerie feeling.

"You used your primordial spirit to ambush my soul, and now you want to leave? Do you think you can?"

A faint voice came from within the girl's body, carrying an irresistible will. It was impossible to tell if it was male or female, but when it fell on the ears, it was like an explosion, involuntarily arousing panic.

"Ambush?"

"Protector Shen wasn't inspecting but ambushing?"

Everyone below was stunned, then looked at Shen Que with anger.

They had thought he was truly checking whether the girl was an Innate Poison Body, but instead, he intended to kill!

"Shen Que, you..."

Lin Jianghai was so furious he was about to explode, cold sweat covering his scalp.

The other party had made a move right under his nose, and he hadn't noticed at all... If something happened to the ancestor, how could he explain?

"I..."

Shen Que's face turned pale. He looked up at the girl and gritted his teeth: "I was just testing, not trying to kill you..."

"Testing? Hmph, I have lived for tens of thousands of years and personally founded the Poison Hall. Do I need a junior like you to test me? What do you think you are?"

The girl's eyes were still shut, but her body stepped down from the air step by step. With each step, the pressure doubled. Shen Que felt sweat on his scalp and felt he could barely endure.

He was a Nine-Star Poison Master, his strength already at a terrifying level, yet before her, he was like a puppet, with no ability to resist!

"I..."

Shen Que was speechless.

With just one move, his consciousness had been extinguished. The other party's strength was far beyond his!

Most importantly, suspecting that the other party was Master Kong, he felt his whole body go limp, devoid of any strength.

"Back then, I roamed the continent, and no one dared to cause me trouble. You, a junior, inherited my legacy and still dared to lay hands on me—what audacity!"

The girl's voice rang out again, like thunder, each word piercing the eardrums, leaving one at a loss for words.

"Senior, I truly didn't mean to harm you; I just wanted to see who you were..."

Shen Que quickly said.

"And now, do you know who I am?"

The girl's face was cold.

"Who exactly are you, playing tricks here?"

Before Shen Que could answer, Venerable Wang on the side couldn't help but look up and shout.

He hadn't experienced what happened inside Wei Ruyan's body and didn't know how terrifying she was. Therefore, in his view, even if her aura was not weak, with his strength, he could completely contend with her—nothing to fear.

"Who am I?"

The girl sneered coldly.

Swish!

A book flew out from between her eyebrows, growing larger and larger, until it was hundreds of meters in size, carrying a dense heavenly pressure that imprisoned everyone's bodies, leaving them without even the strength to flee.

Bang!

With just one hit, Venerable Wang, before he could react, was crushed into a meat patty on the spot.

"Now do you know who I am?"

Having crushed Venerable Wang with one book, the girl clasped her hands behind her back, standing in the sky like a demon or a god.

"Ancestor, spare us..."

Their pupils contracting, Shen Que and Venerable He quickly knelt to the ground.
