My Master Knows It All

With those words, he was the first to walk into the Ten Thousand Poison Valley.

The others followed closely behind.

Passing through a patch of miasma, a wave of rotting scent immediately spread out, and in this valley, weeds grew everywhere and bones were scattered all over.

All around, one could see poisonous creatures crawling on the damp ground, some even gnawing on the remains of other dead poisonous creatures.

Seeing someone walk in, these poisonous creatures seemed like wolves smelling blood, crazily swarming over.

Many people immediately gathered demonic qi, ready to take action.

”Don’t act.” Zang Di quickly uttered a low call, then his hands reached swiftly into the Qiankun Bag, pulling out the already decayed corpses of Poison Scorpions and snakes, hurling them out, and shouted, ”Quick, rush through.”

Following this, everyone hurriedly followed suit.

At the entrance of the canyon, there were quite a few poisonous creatures, but once past the entrance, their numbers dwindled.

Or perhaps, Zang Di was too familiar with this place, knowing where the poisonous creatures gathered and where they were sparse.

Advancing all the way, occasionally encountering many poisonous creatures, Zang Di would again pull out some Poison Scorpion or snake corpses, throw them out to draw the creatures’ attention, and then lead everyone quickly through.

To these poisonous creatures, the corpses of their kin were a great supplement; by devouring their kin, or the bodies of other poisonous creatures, their internal toxins would increase, and the more poison they accumulated, the stronger they became.

Cao Zhen walked while calculating the time.

His heart grew increasingly anxious, as it was nearing an hour, and the Pill inside would soon activate, attracting poisonous creatures.

Suddenly, Zang Di’s lowered voice emerged.

”Stay hidden, follow behind me without making a sound and conceal your breath.”

Zang Di’s voice was filled with gravity. Very soon he led everyone stealthily up a small hill.

Following him up the hill, they looked down and many gasped in surprise.

On the other side of the hill, multitude of poisonous creatures gathered below, such as Poison Scorpions, snakes, centipedes, toads... different kinds of poisonous creatures converged there.

These poisonous creatures, densely packed, filled the entire space.

Suddenly, a Poison Scorpion’s tail swung over, accidentally hitting a spider as large as a tiger, sparking a battle.

Because the space below was too crowded, their fight quickly spread to surrounding poisonous creatures, and for a moment, one after the other, poisonous creatures emitted poisonous energy.

In an instant, various poisonous energies shot out in this space, slowly spreading towards the surroundings.

Even at a distance, Cao Zhen felt bouts of dizziness.

These poisonous creatures were not ordinary; many were even akin to Immortal Path Domain beings in the Indestructible Period.

The battle’s affected range grew larger, and it even extended to the back of these poisonous creatures, reaching the area of the weathered Stone Door.

In front of this weathered Stone Door, surrounded by five poisonous creatures: one Poison Scorpion with wings, a multicolored spider, a black poisonous snake three zhang long, a centipede almost as long as the snake, and a toad as big as a Giant Elephant.

These five poisonous creatures closest to the entrance, breathing greedily.

Suddenly waves of poisonous energy arrived, causing these five creatures to turn around, with the toad issuing a dissatisfied roar, the sound making those fighting poisonous creatures halt as if receiving a command.

At this time, several poisoned corpses already lay on the ground.

As the toad called again, poisonous creatures swarmed onto the corpses, voraciously devouring them.

Cao Zhen’s gaze immediately fixed on those five creatures, clearly the strongest among all.

Such a multitude of poisonous creatures couldn’t have gathered here without reason; he sensed poisoned energy continuously flowing from the tightly closed Stone Door.

These poisonous creatures gathered here to absorb the poison escaping from the door.

The five strongest were therefore able to occupy the nearest positions to the Stone Door.

What lies behind that Stone Door?

Zang Di’s goal is likely the Stone Door as well.

Zang Di glanced at the Stone Door, then suddenly turned, lowering his voice to the group, ”Folks, the ancient ruins are inside the Stone Door, but as you can see, there are too many poisonous creatures outside the door. We stand no chance of rushing through.”

The people around nodded, with so many poisonous creatures, a single drop from one could kill them, let alone rush through.

Zang Di looked around again and said in a low voice, ”Wait here. I still have some Strange Beast corpses and a special treasure. I will go to that place.”

He pointed to a distant location, ”Over there, I will find a way to lure these Demonic Beasts away. Then we’ll storm into the Stone Door together.”

Adding, he warned, ”Remember, until I draw away those poisonous creatures, do not move rashly. Too many here, any careless move could attract their attention. We’ll all die.”

”Rest assured, Brother Zang Di; we won’t move around,” they replied.
