Chapter 103: Nine Great Celestial Lords
"No wonder, no wonder, Death Qi can corrode all poisons and has the effect of counteracting poison with poison. Aren't you afraid of backlash after refining Death Qi into your body?" Poison Master asked.
"Well, I have a bit of Life Essence as well, so I'm just in balance," Yang Chen replied.
"You kid, you are really lucky. Where did your Life Essence come from? Death Qi can condense from the air as long as there are enough dead people, but Life Essence is much harder to come by," Poison Master inquired.
"You don't need to worry about that, Senior. I have a method to mix Death Qi with deadly poison. Do you want to hear it?" Yang Chen tempted.
"Yes, yes, yes. Hurry up and tell me!" Poison Master stepped forward, grabbing Yang Chen's sleeve, his eyes shining with excitement.
"But this secret cannot be shared with outsiders. Besides, you are not part of my Shadow Kill... uh." Yang Chen was speechless; before he finished speaking, Poison Master had already recognized the Emblem.
"I'll make it clear first; I'll just be a nominal member, but I won't put in any effort," Poison Master stated.
"Suit yourself. As long as nothing happens to wipe out the group, you can just watch if you want. However, one thing: you cannot help outsiders plot against my people from the Shadow Kill Camp, nor can you betray the interests of my Shadow Kill Camp," Yang Chen said.
"That's not a problem. Everyone has their principles when doing things. Although I act crazy, I still understand what to choose and what my bottom line is," Poison Master said seriously.
"I believe you. I have an idea: heat the deadly poison to its melting point and then add Death Qi as a coolant. Without going into too much detail, at least a small portion will blend into the poison. This way, we can carry out two rounds of poisoning and three rounds of poisoning until saturation is reached. However, each subsequent round will be more difficult than the last because the boiling point of Death Qi is very low," Yang Chen analyzed.
"How did you come up with that?" Poison Master agreed.
"Oh, I forgot to tell you; I'm also a Forgemaster," Yang Chen smiled.
"Damn, aren't you still under twenty?" Poison Master asked.
"I'm only nineteen," Yang Chen replied.
"That's insane. A nineteen-year-old already at the level of a Duel King. Perhaps you already possess strength comparable to that of the Blood Emperor," Poison Master remarked.
"Blood Emperor? Little Daoer," Yang Chen said lightly.
"Confident, arrogant, and reckless! I like it. Haha." Poison Master chuckled and then asked, "By the way, you just mentioned that the boiling point of Death Qi is very low; do you have any solutions?"
"Yes. There are two methods," Yang Chen said.
"What methods? What methods?" Poison Master asked eagerly.
"First, use Life Essence as a combustion aid," Yang Chen said.
"Damn, aren't you just stating the obvious? Life Essence is not that easy to find," Poison Master replied.
"If you work for me, I will give you some Life Essence as a combustion aid," Yang Chen said playfully.
"Alright, stop right there. You're just a greedy person who won't spare any bones. I have to be cautious when dealing with you, and you want me to work for you? I can't afford that. What's the second method?" Poison Master inquired.
"I've heard there's something called Flame? You might as well try to get one," Yang Chen suggested.
"Damn, that's just nonsense. Strange Fire refers to the Heaven and Earth Strange Objects, and there are only nine types in total, all of which already have masters. However, the master of Life Fire is close to death. Hehe," Poison Master said. "But even if he dies, it won't come into my hands."
"Tell me about the nine types of Strange Fire in the world," Yang Chen asked curiously, and Shi Heng and the others also became interested.
"Alright, I'll tell you. There are nine types of Strange Fire in total: Life Fire, Death Fire, Holy Extinguishing Fire, Chaotic Heavenly Fire, Doomsday Flame, Soul Flame, Void Demon Fire, Nine Heavens Thunder Flame, and Nine Fiends Yin Fire. Currently, these nine types of Strange Fire are held by nine Nine Transformations Duel Saint Great Perfection Experts. However, I've heard that the Life Sovereign has been severely injured in recent years, causing his lifespan to be damaged; he will die within twenty years."
"Celestial Sovereign?" Yang Chen asked in confusion.
"That's right. Anyone who possesses the Heaven and Earth Strange Fire can be titled Celestial Sovereign," Poison Master explained.
"Those who can gain recognition from Strange Fire must possess Great Sage status. They are undoubtedly the pinnacle of this continent. It is not surprising that they are called Celestial Sovereigns," Yang Chen agreed. "Alright, Shi Heng, you all go rest for a while. Poison Master, feel free."
"Okay," Poison Master replied.
"Yes, Young Master."
"Someone call First Rank Thousand Household Marquis Xiao Wentian over here," Yang Chen instructed the soldiers outside the hall.
"Yes, Leader." Not long after Poison Master and the others left, Xiao Wentian walked in and said, "Brother Yang."
"Brother Xiao, I should have come to talk with you over a month ago, but there were too many matters at hand until today when I finally had the opportunity," Yang Chen said.
"It's alright; I understand your situation," Xiao Wentian replied.
"I remember you asked me last time if I still remembered our purpose. Now I am here to answer your question," Yang Chen said. "You and I are in different situations, with different identities, and therefore we observe different things, which means the problems we face are also different. To be honest, brother, I have already developed a force in Loulan City, and I have access to the intelligence of the Shadow Kill Pavilion, so I know many hidden secrets."
"What secrets?" Xiao Wentian asked.
"I really can't say at the moment, and even if I did, you might not believe me," Yang Chen replied bitterly.
"Have you really uncovered some secrets?" Xiao Wentian inquired.
"Yes. And the authenticity of this secret is beyond doubt, but I truly cannot disclose it now. However, please rest assured, Brother Tian, everything I am doing now is for Red Dragon Brother, and I genuinely have no thoughts of seeking titles or nobility. Everything I do now is for future great matters. Please trust me," Yang Chen said sincerely.
"Alright, I'll trust you once more. Because you have never done anything to make me dislike you, nor have you betrayed us or wronged us. I hope it will remain that way in the future," Xiao Wentian said.
"Thank you, brother. I know you think my occupation of Loulan City is an attempt to claim kingship and titles, but that is not the case. At that time, it was a retreat plan for myself. The world is in chaos now, with the Lords rebelling; I gathered troops to assist the country because I feared that after the chaos, there would be ulterior motives regarding the nation, hence my occupation of the city."
"The affairs of the world are well known; how could the Lords disrupt the country? The strength of the nation must prevail! There is an ancient saying: when a cunning rabbit dies, a hunting dog is cooked; when flying birds are gone, good bows are hidden. What I have done was out of necessity."
"I understand," Xiao Wentian nodded in agreement.
"In two years, the dynasty will inevitably unify the four major regions: Central, North, East, and West. After five years, it will surely unify the Southern region. The two giant sects in the South, Qixing Sect and Tian You Sect, have already begun fighting fiercely; the final battle is not far off. The Divine Family from the Western Frontier has already retreated, and the Meteorological Sect has also withdrawn to avoid confrontation. Therefore, within five years, the dynasty will unify Xuan Continent; do you understand why?" Yang Chen said.
"I have also studied the situation in the world," Xiao Wentian replied.
