Chapter 425 – Three Kinds of Poison

Elder Xu sighed . He stood up and said, “The poisons within the sealed pagoda’s fourth level are incomparably dangerous . Even if protections are in place, there is always the chance of accidents occurring . ” He turned and said, “Have everyone below the Blue Sea realm withdraw from the temple and wait in the square for the gambling fight’s final outcome . ”

Although some people didn’t really wish to follow this order, no one expressed any objections . They all began to walk out . After all, compared to the safety of their lives, watching for fun wasn’t much in comparison .

Soon, the entire square was filled with people, hosting a cacophony of sounds and discussion . When the others learned that the sealed pagoda’s fourth level was to be opened, countless cultivators were shocked .

The sealed pagoda…in the Black Demon Sect, it was an extremely terrifying treasure . Or, to be more accurate, it was something entrusted to the Black Demon Sect by a poison master of the demonic path many years ago .

Just how many poisons were inside the sealed pagoda? Perhaps not even the Chief Elder, Sect Master, or anyone else could answer such a question . But, this didn’t affect the incomparably terrifying status that the sealed pagoda held in the hearts of the Black Demon Sect disciples .

3200 years ago, the Black Demon Sect encountered a sect-exterminating disaster . At that time, a group of sect powerhouses were being delayed outside of the sect . They watched as the sect entrance was almost broken through and their orthodoxy forever destroyed . But at this time, the acting Chief Elder of that era used himself as a sacrifice and forcefully broke open the seventh level of the sealed pagoda . It was rumored that a world phantom descended upon the world and remained for several breaths of time before vanishing . The Black Demon Sect was completely fine, but all the cultivators caught up in the world phantom had disappeared .

As for why these were rumors, it was because almost no cultivators who witnessed the battle that year had survived . For 3000 miles all around the Black Demon Sect, all lives had been extinguished .

“The sealed pagoda’s fourth level! It is said that those poisons can easily kill a Blue Sea level cultivator!”

“That is too terrifying! The two grandmasters actually dare to use their own bodies to experiment with those fourth level poisons!”

“Splendid, this is too splendid!”

Soon, news of this spread throughout the entire Black Demon Sect . It was like a giant underwater bomb had exploded, causing massive waves everywhere .

Some of the sect’s powerhouses that didn’t care too much about this event also revealed looks of shock . After a brief moment they stood up and soared towards Heavenwait Temple . Today’s gambling fight and the events that followed had already surpassed the significance of the gambling fight itself . For these two grandmasters to dare to touch the fourth level of the sealed pagoda, that in itself was enough to stir their attention .

“Elder Li!”

“Elder Nan has also come . ”

“Elder Hu, it has been a long time . ”

More and more people arrived at Heavenwait Temple . But, there were only some small greetings and nods before they all sat in their seats and quietly watched from the observing platform .

Elder Zhou’s authority was insufficient . He had to request the leader and an overseer from the Internal Affairs Division for assistance . Only with the three people working together were they able to open the seal of the fourth level . The speed of the unsealing was extremely slow . According to the current pace, it would take two to four hours before it could be opened .

Grandmaster Jiang could no longer bother with maintaining the pose and posture of a great expert . He sat down cross-legged and started to recover the damages he had suffered . Even if he had hidden cards in his hand and even if he was confident in dispelling the poisons of the fourth level, he still didn’t dare to underestimate them…otherwise, if he made even the smallest mistake, then losing the competition was one matter, but there was even a chance he could lose his life!

He diligently melted away the damage the invading poisons had done to his heart and lungs . As the hot tingling feeling ran through his body, he thought about how he had been forced by that surname Yao to this step and his teeth began to itch with hate .

An hour later, Elder Zhou and the others revealed a dignified expression . They glanced at each other and each cautiously formed hand seals .

Hum –

The sealed pagoda slightly trembled and a sphere of deep green light appeared, covering it . Just looking at this green light made one’s scalp tingle and fear rise from their bones .

Poison!

An extremely terrifying poison!

Within the temple, this was the first time that many Black Demon Sect masters saw the fourth level of the sealed pagoda opened . As they saw the green light appear, their pupils shrank . With their incredibly formidable divine sense, they could feel the potent destructive strength within this glossy green light . At this moment, if this green light were to explode…their chests tightened and their expressions became more dignified . They had an even clearer understanding of the sealed pagoda .

Elder Zhou let out a long breath, sweat drenching his back . “Alright . ” Perhaps it was because he had been too anxious just now, but his voice was a bit hoarse .

“This green light is the sealed pagoda’s self-isolating barrier . It will prevent the poisons from leaking outside . But, just in case, we should speed things up . ” Elder Zhou said in a deep voice . “Grandmasters, there is st
