Divine War Pill Emperor

Surprisingly, the proud Zhan Yang refused the Antitoxic Pill from Jiang Chen.

This made Lu Beifeng and Niu Tuo, who were standing nearby, look utterly crestfallen.

”Boss, that’s not a good idea.”

”Jiang Chen is offering them to us, and we’re in a lot of pain.”

Both of them were desperate to get the Antitoxic Pills.

Niu Tuo, for his part, simply reached out and was the first to take a pill from JinLing’s hand.

”If you don’t want one, I’ll take it. No reason to suffer for nothing.”

With that, he popped the Antitoxic Pill into his mouth and swallowed it with a gulp.

Lu Beifeng was still hesitating, but JinLing had already passed one to him.

”Here, take it.”

Lu Beifeng stopped hesitating; the discomfort from the Black Ghost Ant bites was just too much to bear.

He quickly popped it into his mouth as well.

Holding a pill, JinLing walked over to Zhan Yang.

”Brother, here’s one for you.”

”You’ll feel better if you take it.”

But Zhan Yang just turned his head away.

He said coolly, ”I don’t need one. You use them.”

After speaking, he paid JinLing no more mind.

JinLing knew her brother was a proud man who never accepted handouts.

Resigned, she could only hold onto the Antitoxic Pill for now.

She, however, didn’t hesitate and took one herself.

”Whoa...”

A moment later, a cry of surprise rang out.

It was Niu Tuo, shouting in amazement.

”This works so well! I took the Antitoxic Pill, and the numbness in my legs is already gone.”

That was right. These Elixirs had been refined by Jiang Xuan and Jiang Ling of the Jiang Family, and they reflected a good measure of Jiang Chen’s own skill.

As such, their efficacy was naturally excellent.

The Antitoxic Pill worked almost instantly.

Just as Niu Tuo cried out, Lu Beifeng also looked down in surprise. He rolled up his pant leg and felt a cooling sensation spread from the Black Ghost Ant bites on his calf.

The tingling numbness was fading away.

The miraculous effect of the pill made him look at Jiang Chen with a newfound sense of favor.

He had admittedly looked down on Jiang Chen before, but he was completely taken by surprise at how quickly the Elixir healed them.

JinLing cried out in amazement as well.

”It’s true! It works so well.”

The voices of the three naturally caught Zhan Yang’s attention.

JinLing’s cry, in particular, seemed intentionally meant for him.

The corner of his mouth twitched.

’Just like that,’ he thought, ’they’ve been won over by this brat.’

He was filled with contempt.

Yet the Black Ghost Ant bites on his own calf began to itch again.

But in his pride, he refused to acknowledge it.

This pride, however, was its own form of torment.

”Brother, there’s one left.”

”It’s for you.”

”It works really well.”

JinLing walked over and pressed the Antitoxic Pill into her brother Zhan Yang’s hand.

Zhan Yang’s mouth twitched again.

Hearing the continuing cries of pleasant surprise from the other three, he couldn’t help but give a wry, secret smile.

He held the Antitoxic Pill, hesitating for a long time.

Finally, he slowly walked toward Jiang Chen.

Jiang Chen, meanwhile, was watching the four of them with great interest.

The four of them had very different personalities, but Zhan Yang, at the Warrior Ninth Heaven, was by far the proudest.

It seemed to be an inborn quality that set him apart from everyone else.

In a moment, Zhan Yang was standing before Jiang Chen, sizing him up and down once more.

Then, with a stoic expression, he said, ”Jiang Chen, thank you for your Pill.”

For such a proud man to swallow his pride and thank Jiang Chen was truly something.

Jiang Chen was naturally a little surprised.

”Don’t worry about it. I have more of these Pills.”

With Zhan Yang thanking him, a relaxed atmosphere settled over the entire group.

JinLing, Lu Beifeng, and Niu Tuo all came over.

They all thanked Jiang Chen, and all three were surprised that Zhan Yang had taken the initiative to express his gratitude.

This had never happened before.

The atmosphere improved considerably after that.

After taking Jiang Chen’s Antitoxic Pills, Zhan Yang and his three companions were fully recovered.

They moved more quickly, heading straight for their objective.

Zhan Yang remained a man of few words, but JinLing chatted with Jiang Chen constantly.

Niu Tuo, also quite talkative, would chime in now and then.

”Jiang Chen, our next task is to pick the Moyang Flower. Would you like to join us?”

”If you’re willing, I’ll teach you the control incantation for the Five-Heart Array.”

JinLing had finally gotten down to business.

Their objective was to pick the Moyang Flower.

Picking the Moyang Flower meant dealing with a Celestial Brown Ridge Python, so as a precaution, they would naturally need to use the Five-Heart Array.

Jiang Chen didn’t refuse.

”Alright. You can teach it to me, as long as it isn’t taboo.”

He thought for a moment. ’The Black Fire has emerged, but there aren’t any signs of it now. Finding it would be a matter of luck.’

’I’ll stick with JinLing and the others for now and see.’

’I can look for an opportunity to act later.’

He agreed.

A moment later, JinLing taught Jiang Chen the incantation for controlling the Five-Heart Array.

As long as five people recited the incantation at the same time, they could activate the Five-Heart Array.

The Five-Heart Array’s greatest advantage was its ability to stack the power of everyone involved.

Jiang Chen committed the incantation for the Five-Heart Array to memory.

The group continued onward, venturing deeper into Ten Thousand Beasts Mountain.

”Jiang Chen, I heard the Black Fire has appeared recently in Ten Thousand Beasts Mountain, so we’ll probably run into a lot of other Martial Cultivators. Stick with us, and whatever you do, don’t go off on your own, or you could be in danger.”

By now, JinLing felt even more favorably toward Jiang Chen.

Of course, she was more worried that his Cultivation was insufficient.

After all, she had never considered Jiang Chen a powerful expert.

She just felt that Jiang Chen was kind-hearted.

Jiang Chen smiled. ”Alright. Let’s just hope I’m not a burden.”

Jiang Chen had yet to display his Combat Power, so Zhan Yang and the others were unaware of his true strength.

He wasn’t surprised that JinLing and her companions knew about the Black Fire’s emergence. After all, news like that was bound to attract many people.

”ROAR!”

Just then, a Demon Wolf with a full blue mane shot out of the woods, pouncing instantly toward Lu Beifeng at the head of the group.

”Watch out!”

”It’s a Blue Wind Wolf.”

Zhan Yang was the first to bellow a warning.

Jiang Chen fixed his gaze on it; it was indeed a Blue Wind Wolf.

This Blue Wind Wolf had the cultivation of a Warrior Eighth Heaven. It snarled, baring its fangs ferociously.

Even before it drew near, its menacing fangs clearly displayed their sharpness.

They had already lost count of the number of Demon Beast attacks they’d faced on the path.

A Demon Beast would leap out at them every now and then.

Lu Beifeng snorted coldly. Though short in stature, his Cultivation was at the formidable Martial Master Second Realm.

He suddenly drew a black sword.

He slashed viciously at the Blue Wind Wolf.

”Die!”

A flash of black light shot toward the pouncing Blue Wind Wolf.

”SQUELCH!”

With a wet thud, the Blue Wind Wolf was instantly split in two, its body crashing into the grass.

Decisive and clean.

Jiang Chen was full of admiration for Lu Beifeng.

”Jiang Chen, do you see? It’s incredibly dangerous to be in Ten Thousand Beasts Mountain by yourself.”

”It’s a good thing Beifeng is so powerful.”

JinLing reminded Jiang Chen once again.

She was trying to impress upon him just how ferocious the Demon Beasts in Ten Thousand Beasts Mountain were.

Jiang Chen smiled, fully aware of JinLing’s good intentions.

He also praised him, saying, ”Beifeng truly is amazing. I’ve never seen such a powerful expert.”

This bit of flattery made Lu Beifeng, who had just slain the Blue Wind Wolf, a little smug.
