Chapter 576: A Guess

Translator: _Tat_  Editor: Rundi

“No, I just wanted to say.”

Hong Yan Xin shook her head softly and her beautiful eyes flickered expectantly, “Since you can completely dilute the poison from these spiritual medicines, then why not you consume a few of them at the same time.”

“Are you treating me like I am an idiot?” Ling Xian’s lips curled into a smile of ridicule.

Though he was the owner of the Flame of Purity – the nemesis of all poison, which meant he could easily neutralize these poisonous spiritual medicine. However, if he did consume more than two of these at the same time, the poison would cross over with each other. When that did happen, even though the Flame of Purity could detoxify him, it would take more time.

“It seems like you do not have the guts,” The shine in Hong Yan Xin’s eyes was getting more and more dense as the guess she was having was getting more and more firm.

“Don’t set me off, Miss.”

Ling Xian grinned, “Both you and I are very aware that once poisons are mixed, it becomes extremely difficult to over them. For me to consume them one by one will not take much longer time. Why should I risk it?”

Hong Yan Xin’s brows quivered slightly. After pausing to think for a bit, she said, “If you are willing to consume two of them together and still remain unharmed, then those two spiritual medicines are yours right away. I won’t ask you do the third test.”

“You mean it?”

Ling Xian’s eyes glistened. It wasn’t that he was afraid of mixing up the poison. He just thought that it would be a burden to do that and he would be in a bit more of pain.

Therefore, he didn’t really want to. However, if by consuming both together he could save himself the trouble of having to brew Dan, then of course, he was willing.

“I, Hong Yan Xin, never bail on my words,” The alluring lady smiled. Her eyes were inspective and made it obvious that she wanted to confirm something.

“If that’s the case, then I am willing,” The corner of Ling Xian’s lips curled up, and he walked straight up to those two medicines in the shape of flowers.

They were two of the 13 miraculous medicines.

Hong Yan Xin had agreed that if he could remain unharmed after consuming them, he could take the medicine right away. Why would he try and be nice then? Of course he was going to choose the most expensive ones.

Seeing that Ling Xian picked out two miraculous medicine, Hong Yan Xin’s eyelids trembled. “You sure are not shy. Don’t blame me for not reminding you that the level of poison in miraculous medicines are a lot heavier than the first ranked spiritual medicines. Their poisonous properties are virtually incomparable.”

“You don’t need to remind me. I am a lot more knowledgeable than you regarding spiritual medicine.” Ling Xian spoke softly.

Hong Yan Xin raised an eyebrow, and she had to admit that Ling Xian was right. Ignoring all other factors, he knew a lot more than her in regards to the 43 spiritual medicines in the stone room.

[Poison of the miraculous level are already extremely aggressive. If I consume two at the same time, then a poison of unmatching caliber will be created. Lucky I have the Flame of Purity. Or else even those of the original level will not be able to endure the poison for long.]

Ling Xian thought to himself. He then picked out a petal from each spiritual medicine and placed it in his mouth.

At once, the two different poisons began to melt and combined, turning into an all new type of poison. Following that, the poison washed over his organs and turned his face white.

“What a violent poison!”

Sweat began to perspire all over Ling Xian’s forehead and even his red lips began to turn black. A drop of black blood began to drip down his chin, followed by his entire body trembling to a point where he couldn’t even stand by himself anymore.

This was, after all, a mixture of poison from two different miraculous medicines. Even though it was small in portion, it was not something a completion leveled cultivator could defend against. If he didn’t have the Flame of Purity, he wouldn’t dare to try.

“This is far too hostile.”

Smiling bitterly, Ling Xian gave up the idea of enduring it himself. He quickly summoned the Flame of Purity, and at once silver flames poured out from the center of his heart to all his organs. Like a predator who saw its pray, the flames rushed and pounced onto the mixture of poison.

However, the poisonous properties of the mixture was way too overpowering. Even the nemesis of all poison, the Flame of Purity, could not get rid of the poison in a short period of time.

Because of this, Ling Xian was in extreme agony.

Though the poison in his body was only so little, it was after all miraculous medicine’s level of poison. With his level of cultivation, there was no way for him to handle it. Therefore, his entire face was white as he spat out black blood. At this point, he was already kneeling on the ground.

Seeing this, Hong Yan Xin frowned, thinking that she had guessed it wrong. However, once she realized that Ling Xian’s breathing was stabilizing, she stopped worrying.

“Even poison from the miraculous medicines cannot kill him. It seems like my guess was correct.” Hong Yan Xin faintly smiled.

“Ehem, ehem, it is intense poison after all.”

After coughing up another mouthful of blood, Ling Xian quickly manipulated his Flame of Purity. The flame flowed through his organs and limbs. After moments of time, the poison in his body was finally completely eaten up by the Flame of Purity.

This made him sigh in relief. The color red returned to his cheeks as well.

“Even though the Flame of Purity could guarantee my life, the process I had to go through sure was torturous. I do not ever want to try this again.” Ling Xian quietly mumbled to himself. However, once he remembered what he was about to gain from this, his bitter smile turned into a joyous one.

Even though this detox process brought him great agony, the gain from this whole thing was also shocking. He was about to get two miraculous medicines. If he had to trade them with medicinal Dans, it would take him decades of brewing before he could brew enough to match their values.

But now, all he had to do was endure some pain to get them into his pouch. This was a bargain for him.

“Miss, since I have neutralized the poison, then I will take these two miraculous medicines,” The corner of Ling Xian’s lips curled up as he placed the two miraculous medicine into his pouch.

Hong Yan Xin’s eyelids hopped and she was somewhat pained. After all, these two rare miraculous medicines were hers. Naturally her flesh hurt at it.

However, compared to her heart ache, she felt more excited and joyful.

“You sure are very capable. To be able to neutralize poison of the miraculous level, I admire that.” Hong Yan Xin softly smiled and complimented from the bottom of her heart.

It was known that the poisonous properties of miraculous medicines were already extremely aggressive. Mixing them up together exponentially increased their affects. Even though he only consumed a little, without any detoxifying Dan, an original leveled cultivator could die from it.

Yet now, Ling Xian was utterly unharmed. How could she not compliment him?

“You are flattering me.”

Ling Xian brandished his hand and he stared at Hong Yan Xin with a heated gaze. “I wonder if you are willing to let me continue this deal? Even if you want me to consume 3 different poisons, I will do it.”

[Oh f*ck!]

[You son of a bitch wanted to take away all my miraculous medicines without spending half a spiritual stone? In your dreams!]

A dark cloud formed over Hong Yan Xin’s head. The reason why she ever suggested such a trade was to help confirm her guess. Now that she had the confirmation, why would she dumbly give away her miraculous medicines?

Plus, even an idiot could see that even if Ling Xian consumed all 43 poisonous medicines at once, he would survive.

If she agreed to his suggestion, then she would truly be an idiot.

At Hong Yan Xin’s silence, Ling Xian felt a little regretful, “What a pity. Since you are unwilling, then I won’t force anything. We will continue based on your rules.”

Then, he turned around to see the miraculous medicines he’s never tried, and his gaze turned heated. It seemed like he was going to try and acquire all he miraculous medicines.

This once again made Hong Yan Xin’s eyelids jump. She quickly made a statement that forced Ling Xian to frown.

“If I am not guessing wrong, you should have possessed the Essence of Herbalism and the Flame of Purity.”
