Chapter 368: A Gathering of Heroes (1)
” Chang Dunzhi: I wish you all the best. You are arrogant and have no intention of being humble. You are just a mere Golden Core, yet you insist on making things difficult for me…”
Opening the letter sent by Wu Chang, Zhu Wuyang was surprised to find that it was a letter of challenge. Wu Chang was afraid that he would avoid the battle, so he specially sent a letter of challenge to urge him.
This was because he didn’t want to die fast enough!
Zhu Wuan casually glanced at it. There were more than ten pages. It was unknown who had written it for Wu Chang, but it listed Zhu Wuan’s 108 crimes in detail, saying that he did not know how to appreciate kindness, that he was seeking death, and that he was arrogant and conceited…
All in all, Zhu Wuyan could only conclude with one sentence.
Don’t leave after school!
No, I should be waiting for you in the Hundred Poison War. If you dare to leave, you’re not a man. You have to be careful of my full revenge.
His brain was really flooded!
Zhu Wanhao casually threw the letter of challenge, which had more than ten pages, onto the ground. Looking at the worried Peng Yingzhi, he smiled and said,” It’s just a small matter. I’ll give you a surprise in this Hundred Poison War, a big surprise! ”
“But…However, the Wu Clan is very powerful. It is said that one of the Wu Clan’s inner disciples is an expert ranked in the top 8,000 on the Hundred Poisons List. He is also very famous in Nine Dragon Mountain.” Peng Ying said.
“Over 8,000?” Zhu Wanhao had a strange expression on his face. He was confident of making it into the top 100 of the Hundred Poison Ranking when he had just arrived at Nine Dragon Mountain, let alone now.
Was there a need to care so much about a weakling who was ranked over eight thousand on the Hundred Poison List?
Peng Yingzhi frowned slightly. ” However, with Wu Chang’s status, he will have to pay a high price to persuade this prodigy of the Wu Clan to take action. Therefore, he should not easily let such a Golden Core expert challenge Master. At that time, the Golden Core that Wu Chang arranged should not be so strong. ”
“Master, you must be careful. If you see that things are not going well, you must admit defeat immediately to prevent anything from happening. We alchemists have always been known for our weak combat strength. This is something that everyone knows. Even if Master admits defeat at that time, it will not affect Master’s reputation.”
“This…” Zhu Wuan was a little speechless. It was still up to luck for a mere Golden Core ranked in the 8,000-odd on the Hundred Poison Ranking to challenge him. The possibility of the other party making a move was not high. How much did he look down on him?
Did they really think that alchemists were all trash in terms of combat? This time, Zhu Wuwan was going to use her absolute strength to break everyone’s prejudice against alchemists.
Zhu Wanwan wanted to let the cultivators of the Thousand Poisons Sect see with their own eyes how an alchemist from the Dragon Flame Grotto could dominate the entire Hundred Poisons Ranking and ascend to the throne. He wanted to accomplish something that no alchemist from the Thousand Poisons Sect had ever been able to do.
Let alone the Golden Core cultivators ranked in the top 8000 on the Hundred Poison List, even if they were Golden Cores ranked in the top eight, Zhu Wuwan would not be afraid.
After sending off the extremely worried Peng Yingzhi, Zhu Wuwan suddenly made a decision. During the Hundred Poisons War, he would give all his disciples and grand-disciples a holiday so that they could personally witness how he ascended to the first throne on the Hundred Poisons Ranking.
Originally, Zhu Wuan had wanted to let his disciples and grand-disciples continue working during the War of a Hundred Poisons to earn resources and wealth for him.
However, after hearing Peng Yingzhi’s words and thinking about the worry that many of his disciples and grand-disciples had for him, Zhu Wuyang decided to take advantage of this War of a Hundred Poisons to teach them a good lesson.
Even if he was an alchemist, it did not mean that his strength was weak!
A true alchemy expert could not only refine elixirs but also deal with demons and ghosts.
Most importantly, as an alchemist, he also had to increase his strength and combat strength. He could not use his lack of time and energy to brush this matter off. Otherwise, it would be too late to regret it when he encountered a life and death battle.
Zhu Wuyang wanted to use him as an example to give them unprecedented guidance.
However, before participating in the War of a Hundred Poisons, Zhu Wuyang first sold a lot of the treasures he had earned from the many Golden Cores in batches.
The main reason for selling these treasures was not to make money, but to be able to use some of them legally in the future.
At that time, even if the original owner of the treasure saw it, Zhu Wuyang could still say that she bought it from the black market.
Among so many treasures, Zhu Wuwan chose four pieces of equipment. They were the supreme-grade spiritual weapon, Yin Yang Needle, the supreme-grade spiritual weapon, Golden Umbrella, the supreme-grade spiritual weapon, Cloud-treading Boots, and the supreme-grade spiritual weapon, Stellar Swords!
The Yin Yang Needle was used for sneak attacks and assassinations. It could also absorb Yang Qi to increase Zhu Wuwan’s strength. It was extremely suitable for Zhu Wuwan’s taste.
The Golden Sifting Umbrella’s defensive power was astonishing. It could defend against both energy attacks and physical attacks. It could even defend against Spiritual Sense and Spiritual Sense attacks.
The Cloud-Treading Boots were a precious treasure for escaping. Once it was fully activated, it could allow Zhu Wuwan’s speed to soar several times.
Zhu Wuwan, who had mastered the Divine Illusionary Steps, was already fast. Now that she had the help of the Cloud Treading Boots, Zhu Wuwan’s speed was even faster.
If he were to unleash his full strength, even many Soul Formation Realm cultivators would not be able to catch up to Zhu Wuyang at this moment. One could imagine how fast Zhu Wuyang was.
There were a total of 108 swords in the Star Cluster Sword Master Slaughter, and each of them was a middle-grade spirit weapon. Together, they formed the supreme-grade spirit weapon of this set of supreme-grade spirit weapons, and their value was almost comparable to that of ordinary magic weapons.
What surprised Zhu Wanhao the most was that the Stars Sword could not only accommodate Core Power and Nascent Soul Power, but it could also accommodate the Heavenly Cycle Stellar Energy. When needed, it could erupt with unimaginable attack power.
These four spirit weapons that Zhu Wuwan had carefully selected were all kings among spirit weapons. Even in the entire Southern Wasteland, they were the best spirit weapons.
With the amplification of these four spirit weapons, Zhu Wuwan’s overall strength had increased by more than three times.
At this moment, Zhu Wuyang was confident that he could fight against a Soul Formation Realm cultivator. Of course, the possibility of failure was extremely high.
It was said that going from the Original Infant Stage to the Soul Formation Stage was a huge transformation. It could be said to be the difference between heaven and earth. It was more than ten times greater than the difference between the Golden Core Stage and the Original Infant Stage.
Under such circumstances, even if Zhu Wuyang had a strong foundation and mastered the most powerful immortal martial arts and spirit weapons, he wouldn’t dare to say that he could fight against a Soul Formation Realm cultivator.
However, if he could really resist, then Zhu Wanyou would be known as the number one person in the Southern Wasteland for all eternity, and his name would be recorded in history.
It was possible to see a battle between a Gold Core Realm Cultivator and a Nascent Soul Realm Cultivator in Dongyuan Continent, but no one had ever seen a battle between a Nascent Soul Realm Cultivator and a Divine Transformation Realm Cultivator. No matter how many Nascent Soul Realm Cultivators came, they would still be crushed.
As they busied themselves, it was already the night before the war. After tonight, the Hundred Poison War would begin tomorrow.
The Heavenly Pillar Peaks had already been set up. More than ten million Golden Cores had gathered in the Thousand Poisons Sect. Even more than half of the Nascent Soul Stage Cultivators had specially rushed back to see if there were any outstanding Golden Cores in this year’s War of a Hundred Poisons.
Many clans and forces affiliated with the Ten Thousand Poisons Sect had sent their experts over to look for suitable investors and roped them in, hoping to increase their clan’s foundation.
At this moment, the Ten Thousand Poisons Sect was unprecedentedly lively.
At this moment, Zhu Wuan gathered all his disciples and grand-disciples in Alchemy Grotto No. 96 and prepared to give them a lesson.
” Why did Master suddenly summon us? Could it be that Master really wants to participate in the War of a Hundred Poisons? I wasn’t joking with Wu Chang of the Great Medicine Tower before, but Master is an alchemist. How can he be a match for the cultivators of the Wu family who specialize in combat? ”
” Actually, Master isn’t bad. It’s said that after being poisoned by the Ten Days Soul-scattering Water, Master’s strength was improved to the Exceptional Gold Core Realm in one fell swoop. Half a month ago, he also easily defeated a late-stage Gold Core cultivator of the Wu family. It can be seen that Master’s strength is so strong that he might be able to enter the Hundred Poison List. ”
” Are you kidding me? Every Golden Core on the Poison List is at least at the top of the Golden Core Stage. Although Master’s strength is not bad, he is still much inferior compared to these people. He will definitely be beaten by the Wu family’s cultivators. ”
“I always thought that Grandmaster was joking. He was prepared to play with the cultivators of the Wu family and finally found a suitable force to rely on, so that the Wu family would not continue to worry about our Innocent Tower.”
