Chapter 277: The Truth About the Cold Poison
“You’ve already eliminated four of the seven demon beasts?” In the Mountain Demon Clan’s territory, the Mountain Demon Elder’s face revealed a surprised expression. It hadn’t been too long since the two left the clan’s territory, yet the four great calamity beasts of “Fear”, “Inferiority”, “Greed”, and “Lust” had already been eliminated by them. Only three of the seven calamity beasts remained.
“Elder, we now have no clues about the remaining three great calamity beasts. The map you gave us before is too ancient and probably not that useful anymore. We’ve come back this time to seek your guidance on where we should go next to find clues,” Zhanyue asked sincerely.
The Mountain Demon Elder closed his eyes, pondering this question in his mind. The legend of the seven calamity beasts had passed long, long ago. Many races responsible for guarding the divine artifacts had even gone extinct. They hadn’t communicated with each other for a long time. The last time the Mountain Demon Clan and the Spirit Eye Clan had communicated was many years ago.
Suddenly, the Mountain Demon Elder’s eyes snapped open. “Got it! How could I have forgotten about them?” A hint of a smile appeared on his face. “Do you know about the ‘Fairy Spirit Clan’?”
“Fairy Spirit Clan? We know very little about the races of this world. Please elaborate, Elder,” Zhanyue probed.
“The Fairy Spirit Clan are spirits of grass and trees taking physical form. They are the most mysterious race in this world. It’s said that they are the closest to nature and the Heavenly Dao. No race dares to underestimate them. Among the Fairy Spirit Clan, there are prophets. It’s said they know many secrets that we don’t. But this legend has never been proven. Everyone just speculates based on how the Fairy Spirit Clan emerges unscathed from every major disaster. If it’s the Fairy Spirit Clan’s prophets, they might be able to help you find the remaining three great calamity beasts. But...” The Mountain Demon Elder’s tone changed.
“But what?” Zhanyue continued asking.
“The reason I didn’t think of them immediately is because they have always been mysterious and exclusive, rarely showing themselves in front of other living beings. Even though many people know where their clan territory is, very few have actually seen them,” the Elder sighed.
“What do you mean?” Zhanyue was puzzled. Why was it that people knew where their clan territory was but couldn’t see them?
“Because... they reside in other worlds. What we know as their clan territory is merely the entrance to their world. If they don’t want to see you, there’s absolutely no way you’ll be able to see them.” The Elder explained. Having lived countless years, even the Mountain Demon Elder knew very little about the Fairy Spirit Clan. There was no way around it – this race was too mysterious. Even that visitor from beyond the heavens back then didn’t get close to the Fairy Spirit Clan. The seven races guarding the divine artifacts didn’t include the Fairy Spirit Clan.
“If you want an opponent, wait for Tai’e to come out.” The Alchemy Daoist only left this one sentence.
Tian Xian had successively defeated Liu Zhaoran, Feng Bulang, Yu Xuanyi, and Fan Longyu, becoming unrivaled for a time, with the Winged Race’s heavenly genius pressing down on the Human Race’s heavenly geniuses to act domineering. The Alchemy Daoist only regretted that Huang Xuejing, Yunyao, and Tai’e hadn’t come out. In his eyes, only these three could rival Tian Xian. As for Zhanyue, Holy Maiden Lixi, Nangong Weilai and the others, they probably weren’t a match for Tian Xian. Of course, he knew very little about their experiences in the Heavenly Book World.
At night, another beam of light burst out from the ancient well, instantly overshadowing the light from the Illumination Pagoda. The night was like daytime, and the gentle light energy made everyone bathed in it feel delighted in body and mind. After Baizhi, MuMu Lixi had also completed the trial and walked out. Unlike Baizhi, she had completed the trial relying on her own strength. Her entire bearing was completely different, with a sacred and inviolable aura surging from her body.
The Wind Lord Mumu Xingyun immediately came to his granddaughter’s side, but the change in his granddaughter greatly shocked him. Compared to her previous frailty, MuMu Lixi’s eyes now held a hint of determination.
“Girl, you...” The Wind Lord was somewhat stunned. His granddaughter seemed to have become even more beautiful. More importantly, it wasn’t just her appearance and bearing, but the threatening aura emanating from her body. She could actually make him feel threatened? The Wind Lord naturally found it hard to understand.
“Grandpa, I just had some gains in the Heavenly Book World. The cold poison in my body has been completely resolved. Moreover, I discovered a secret.” MuMu Lixi said with a solemn face.
“What secret?” The Wind Lord was a bit puzzled. She was in such a hurry to tell him these things, so there must be some big event.
“The ‘cold poison’ in my body isn’t actually ‘poison’, but a divine object, a top-grade treasure. My increase in strength comes from it.” MuMu Lixi’s words caused the Wind Lord’s mind to crash.
“The poison the Nightmare Clan put in you is actually a great nourishing substance, a top-grade treasure?” No matter what, the Wind Lord couldn’t understand. How was this possible?
