Great Li Martial God

At these words, Meng Shan was stunned for a moment.

Then he looked toward those Blood-Bathed Alliance disciples holding torches in the mountain valley.

Next, he saw someone not far away begin to cough slightly.

The person even complained a few times, blaming the deep mountains for being too cold at night, and that he had come too hastily and hadn't worn enough clothes...

Soon after, nearby people also began coughing sporadically. At first, everyone didn't pay attention, thinking it was just an ordinary cold.

But when someone suddenly vomited fresh blood, their whole body's skin itching unbearably, even gradually developing to festering and suppurating, everyone finally realized the seriousness of the problem.

"Not good! Miasma poison has been released in this mountain valley. Retreat quickly!"

The black-robed middle-aged man shouted in a deep voice. Immediately holding his breath and circulating his true qi, he condensed a palm print attempting to disperse the poison gas in the mountain valley.

But clearly it was already somewhat too late. The surrounding alliance disciples were deeply poisoned. Even if they heard his words and wanted to flee the valley, they simply couldn't do it anymore.

The uncontrollable itching and the excruciating pain from their flesh gradually rotting made them unable to care about escaping. One by one, they desperately scratched at their own bodies with their hands. Even when the skin on their faces and bodies was scraped off piece by piece, and even bright red flesh was gouged out, they had no awareness of it.

For a moment, throughout the entire mountain valley were continuous shrill screams and wails. Everyone rolled on the ground, blood flowing everywhere, as if it were a human purgatory.

Seeing this scene, the black-robed middle-aged man's face showed an expression full of unbearable pain. He exchanged glances with the other two elders and immediately retreated toward the outside of the mountain valley.

At this time, the masked woman stood up from the bluish stone.

She surveyed the current situation in the mountain valley, her eyes revealing undisguised pleasured laughter.

"Think escaping the mountain valley will help? Within a three-li radius, I've released the colorless and odorless 'Fallen Swallow Erosion Poison Powder.' Even wild geese flying overhead would be poisoned to death. Do you think you can escape?"

She raised her hand and grasped. The blue-black mist that had originally swirled around the four people within a three-foot area flowed thread by thread like rivers returning to the sea toward her palm.

Within several breaths, she merged it into her true qi and completely absorbed it into her body.

Meng Shan's group of three standing beside the woman all remained silent, seemingly not daring to speak at all, nor did they dare look at the miserable state of those Blood-Bathed Alliance disciples around them.

As if afraid that carelessly saying something wrong would displease this masked woman before them, and they would silently fall to her poisonous hand, ending up with the same fate as these Blood-Bathed Alliance disciples.

"You stay here. Those three are poisoned and can't run far. I'll go deal with them first!"

The masked woman swept a meaningful glance at the three people, then immediately pursued in the direction the black-robed middle-aged man had retreated. Killing intent was thick in her eyes, "Once I kill those three Martial Dao Masters, my 'Blood Form Poison Claw Technique' can advance even further."

...

At the same time, outside the mountain valley, Yu Changlu hiding behind the rocks had unsurprisingly also been poisoned by that Fallen Swallow Erosion Poison Powder.

Like Cang Yinyue and the other, he had been secretly observing the situation in the mountain valley. He had still been thinking about how to find an opportunity to call for help from the Blood-Bathed Alliance people.

But unexpectedly, before long, he had witnessed with his own eyes the miserable state of the Blood-Bathed Alliance disciples poisoned in the valley.

Just as he was horrified by this and secretly feeling fortunate that he hadn't rushed to call for help, he then discovered that he himself had also been poisoned, following in their footsteps.

At this time, Yu Changlu had scratched his own face beyond recognition. The itching and pain penetrating to his bones made him continuously roll on the ground.

"Save... save me!"

Suddenly, when he saw Li Musheng beside him acting as if nothing was wrong, as if finding a lifesaving straw, he hurriedly and with difficulty reached out his hand toward him for help.

"Sorry, but poison is something I'm really not good at."

Li Musheng spread his hands, indicating his helplessness.

Beside him, Cang Yinyue pulled out a porcelain bottle from her bosom, poured out an antidote pill, and took it.

She carefully observed Li Musheng, not wasting an antidote pill on him, and directly stuffed the porcelain bottle back into her bosom.

As for Yu Changlu, from beginning to end, she didn't even glance at him once, showing no intention of saving him.

Then Cang Yinyue sat cross-legged on the ground, circulating the true qi in her body, using the medicine's power to expel the poison from her body.

"Why aren't you poisoned?"

Cang Yinyue suddenly asked without looking away from her focus.

"Among the martial arts I created myself, there's one called Immortal Golden Body. Although I don't understand poison, practicing that thing makes me immune to all poisons."

Li Musheng casually explained while crouching down. His gaze fell on the two mule-horses that had suddenly collapsed and were foaming at the mouth.

Hearing this, Cang Yinyue only glanced at him without asking any more questions.

At this time, Li Musheng stared at the poisoned mule-horses for a while and shook his head, "These horses can't die. There's still such a long road ahead. I don't want to walk to Shangyang City on two legs."

Then he reached out to touch the horse's back and gently patted it.

In an instant, the mule-horse that had originally been foaming at the mouth and convulsing violently suddenly shuddered all over and abruptly stood up full of vigor, completely as if nothing had happened.

Then Li Musheng did the same thing and revived Cang Yinyue's horse as well.

Yu Changlu beside them, dying of pain, caught sight of this scene with his eyes. His eyeballs nearly fell to the ground.

Just now when he had begged Li Musheng to save him, the other party had said he wasn't good at it and indicated his helplessness.

He had believed it was true, so he accepted it, only blaming his fate.

But in the blink of an eye, he saw that when that mule-horse worth only a few coins was about to die from poison, Li Musheng immediately acted without a word and revived it in two moves.

The treatment between him and the mule-horse was like heaven and earth!

Yet a cargo-pulling mule-horse was only worth a few coins. So his life wasn't even worth a horse's.

"Save... save me..."

Yu Changlu immediately endured the pain on his body and crawled toward Li Musheng with difficulty.

In his view, if Li Musheng could even revive a horse, saving him would definitely be easy.

At the same time, Cang Yinyue's phoenix eyes widened to their limit, staring fixedly at Li Musheng, her eyes revealing an expression of disbelief.

She had naturally also seen that scene just now.

She didn't know how Li Musheng had accomplished all this, but she understood clearly that to save a mule-horse in such a short time without relying on an antidote, one would have to use abundant true qi to disperse the poison from the horse's body.

However, she had not detected any true qi fluctuations from Li Musheng's body just now.

"How exactly did he do it?"

Cang Yinyue couldn't figure it out. She didn't really believe Li Musheng's claim about creating his own martial arts.

She only felt that he had quite a few secrets, and these secrets must be related to his fortuitous encounters.

At this time, seeing Li Musheng walk toward Yu Changlu, she could only suppress the doubts in her heart and said, "You don't need to save him. This person has committed many evil deeds in the Blood-Bathed Alliance. He completely deserves death."
