Chapter 337: The Whereabouts of Poison Dragon Saliva
BOOM! BANG!
A colossal explosion erupted in the distance, shaking the very heavens and earth.
The three of them, who were hurrying on their way, all looked up.
Lilith glanced over, then lowered her head and continued on her way.
Kristiman’s face filled with worry, afraid that Evelyn had encountered some danger.
Only Li Wei knew what that explosion was.
The Illusory Body had self-destructed.
It had taken out several of the Poison Scorpion Beasts that were besieging Evelyn.
The Shadow Attendant had already retrieved the unconscious Evelyn and was now rushing toward them at top speed.
Once they regrouped, Evelyn would be safe.
However, according to the intel from the Shadow Attendant, Evelyn’s current situation was extremely dire.
The poison had already spread throughout her entire body. Her skin had turned a purplish-red, and her face was a deathly blue-black.
If not for a mysterious power within her maintaining her life force, Evelyn would have died long ago.
There was no telling how much longer that power could hold out.
Li Wei picked up his pace and asked, "How do you cure the Poison Scorpion Beast’s venom?"
Hearing this, Kristiman quickly replied, "Poison Dragon Saliva Grass can neutralize the Poison Scorpion Beast’s potent venom."
Li Wei’s heart stirred at his words.
’I never thought I’d get news of Poison Dragon Saliva Grass under these circumstances.’
If he found the Poison Dragon Saliva Grass, he would also be able to find the Poison Dragon Saliva.
Li Wei quickly asked, "Where can I find Poison Dragon Saliva Grass?"
Kristiman rapidly explained, "There’s some Poison Dragon Saliva Grass growing in the Poison Scorpion Beasts’ lair, but a very powerful Poison Scorpion Beast Lord is there."
It was a matter of yin and yang.
Wherever a highly toxic substance appears, an antidote is bound to grow nearby.
Poison Dragon Saliva was one of the ten most potent poisons in the world.
The Poison Dragon Saliva Grass, which was nourished into existence by the Poison Dragon Saliva, was indeed the best antidote in the world.
It could neutralize almost any poison in existence.
Perhaps it was precisely because the Poison Dragon Saliva Grass could grow amidst one of the world’s deadliest poisons that it possessed such an exaggerated detoxifying ability.
The information Kristiman provided was half good, half bad.
For Li Wei, at least, the good news outweighed the bad.
He had just been worrying about how to find Poison Dragon Saliva.
And now Kristiman had delivered the answer right to his doorstep.
The only bad news was that the Poison Dragon Saliva Grass was in the Poison Scorpion Beasts’ lair.
And a Poison Scorpion Beast Lord was there, too.
A Magic Beast that could be called Lord Level was bound to be terrifyingly powerful, far stronger than an ordinary Magic Beast.
Kristiman quickly asked, "Why are you asking all this? Did someone get poisoned?"
Li Wei said, "Evelyn was poisoned."
Kristiman stared at Li Wei in utter astonishment. "How do you know that?"
Worry then took over, and he had no time to wonder how Li Wei knew Evelyn was poisoned.
"We’ve already used up the Poison Dragon Saliva Grass we gathered last time, and it’s impossible to go pick more from the Poison Scorpion Beasts’ lair now."
"That Poison Scorpion Beast Lord is a Tier Six High Level Magic Beast. It’s terrifyingly strong—the most powerful creature in this Peach Blossom Spring Realm."
"Our only chance is to wait for it to leave its nest for a while, then sneak into the Poisonous Scorpion Beast Nest and pick a little bit of the grass."
Kristiman was extremely distressed.
Li Wei, on the other hand, wasn’t too worried.
’So what if it’s a Tier Six High Level Poison Scorpion Beast Lord?’
’I just have to kill it.’
He had plenty of trump cards up his sleeve, more than enough to deal with a Tier Six High Level Poison Scorpion Beast Lord.
The Blade of Judgment, the Fire Element Elder Summoning Rune Stone, the Supercharged Cyan Fireball, the Cyan Fire Flame Lord Form with its three transformations...
Without even realizing it, Li Wei’s power had become truly terrifying.
He had a huge stash of trump cards and finishing moves.
He didn’t even give ordinary enemies a second thought.
The only enemies who could make Li Wei feel outmatched were those of Legendary Level or higher.
Using the Fire Element Elder Summoning Rune Stone, which had two summons left, to deal with a Tier Six High Level Poison Scorpion Beast Lord wasn’t very cost-effective.
The Fire Element Elder possessed Legendary Level combat power.
It would be a gross case of overkill—using a cannon to shoot a mosquito.
A complete waste.
Li Wei thought for a moment and decided that using the Blade of Judgment was probably the best choice.
The Blade of Judgment’s instant-kill effect had some effect even on Legendary Level creatures.
Dealing with a Tier Six High Level Poison Scorpion Beast Lord should be easy.
Before long, Li Wei’s group of three rendezvoused with the Shadow Attendant.
When Kristiman saw Evelyn’s purplish-red body, he said with extreme worry, "The poison has gone too deep. No other method will work. Only Poison Dragon Saliva Grass can cure her now."
"The power of the Hundred Flowers God is still maintaining Evelyn’s life force, but it will only last for five hours at most."
"The Poison Scorpion Beast Lord won’t leave to hunt again for another seven days. Evelyn can’t wait that long!"
Kristiman clutched his hair in anguish, trying to think of a solution.
After a long, agonizing moment, he found he couldn’t bear to watch his old friend die.
He made up his mind, looked at Li Wei and Lilith, and said, "I’ll lure the Poison Scorpion Beast Lord away. You two take the opportunity to pick the Poison Dragon Saliva Grass."
Li Wei looked at him and shook his head. "There’s no need. I’ll take care of the Poison Scorpion Beast Lord."
Kristiman’s expression turned to one of surprise. "You... Can you really do it?"
He found it hard to believe.
When he had first met Li Wei, he had thought Li Wei was very strong.
But after flying behind Li Wei for a while, he had sensed that Li Wei’s Level was only Tier Three.
He wasn’t even a Grand Mage.
A Tier Three Mage claiming he would take on a Tier Six High Level Poison Scorpion Beast Lord.
Logic told Kristiman that it was absolutely unbelievable.
But his heart clung to a sliver of hope.
He thought, ’Li Wei is a Mage from the Elemental Tower. He must have some trump card to deal with the Poison Scorpion Beast Lord.’
’Otherwise, he wouldn’t have volunteered so readily.’
Lilith glanced at Li Wei and said, "Why don’t you let me do it? I can lure the Poison Scorpion Beast Lord away safely."
Kristiman looked at Lilith in surprise.
He hadn’t expected her to be so confident as well.
When he had resolved to lure away the Poison Scorpion Beast Lord, he had already prepared himself for the danger of death.
Yet Lilith was casually saying she could lure it away safely?
Kristiman was utterly astounded.
Li Wei shook his head and said, "There’s no need to go to all that trouble."
He looked at Kristiman and said, "Time is wasting. Take me to the Poison Scorpion Beasts’ lair."
Kristiman saw the confidence written all over Li Wei’s face.
A sliver of hope couldn’t help but rise in his heart.
He quickly said, "Alright, follow me. The Poison Scorpion Beasts’ lair is this way."
The three of them hurried toward the Poison Scorpion Beasts’ lair.
Kristiman said, "I’ve already contacted Bella. She’s coming to help us deal with the Poison Scorpion Beast Lord."
A look of confusion crossed Li Wei’s face. "Who’s Bella?"
Kristiman explained, "Bella is another member of the Hundred Flowers Clan within the Peach Blossom Spring Realm. Her title is the Thunder General."
"Her power is the greatest among us four members of the Hundred Flowers Clan. She used to be the grand general of Flying Flower City."
Just as he finished speaking, a clap of thunder echoed through the sky.
BOOM!
Li Wei saw a streak of lightning shoot toward them from the distant horizon.
Before long, the streak of lightning drew near.
A figure emerged from the brilliant thunderlight. When he saw what they looked like, Li Wei’s expression turned to one of surprise.
He had assumed the Thunder General would be a man; he never expected it to be a woman.
