Danzun War God

Chapter 80 Poisoning Outbreak

The group decided to stay in this demon city for now and head straight to the Ten Thousand Demons Sect first thing tomorrow morning.

We'll soon have all the ingredients for the Rejuvenation Pill, and everyone can finally breathe a sigh of relief.

"Shall we take a stroll inside the Demon City?" Qin Wuyang suggested.

Qin Wuyang's suggestion was immediately agreed upon by Tang Siyu, a playful young girl.

Although Chen Wei didn't speak, his eyes were shining, clearly indicating his desire to go out and see what was happening. However, since his older brother didn't say anything, he couldn't say anything either, and simply turned his gaze to Han Qi.

All the way there, Han Qi was wondering what the Snow Skin Jade Bone Grass was, but he had no clue. Feeling a bit annoyed, he thought it would be good to go for a walk. He then smiled and said, "Let's go. Qin Wuyang will cover all the expenses tonight."

"Haha, I can't say for sure about other things, but we definitely have plenty of this. Everyone, don't be stingy, go all out!" Qin Wuyang really got excited about going out to play. If it weren't for Tang Siyu accompanying him, his favorite thing to do would be to go out and have fun with women. Now he can only imagine it.

Demon City is a highly developed city in the Demon Realm, second only to the Imperial City. Of course, spiritual cultivation cannot be separated from the support of elixirs. Demon City also has abundant earth fire resources, and alchemy is very developed, just like Lieyun City in the human realm. Herb shops and alchemy pavilions are one after another, and the population is also relatively large and diverse, but most of them are demon spirits.

Demon Spirits are a branch of the Demon Realm, a type of spiritual cultivation within it. The ranks of these spiritual cultivators are: Demon Spirit, Demon, Demon King, Demon Lord, Demon Emperor, Demon Saint, and Demon God. Demon Gods possess powerful primordial spirits and can exist in this state. They have one opportunity in their lifetime to possess another body, after which their cultivation completely merges with the original host's. However, reaching the level of Demon God is not achieved overnight; it requires extremely high talent.

Although Han Qi and his companions strolled around the city, they didn't forget to inquire about the Black Heart Demon Soul Flower and the Ascension Grass at the herbal medicine shops. However, these two herbs were quite rare, and most of the pharmacies knew nothing about them, having only heard of their names but never seen them in person.

This made Tang Siyu say with concern, "Such a big city doesn't even have these two herbs. Will they be available on Demon Spirit Mountain?"

“Yes, this Demon City is so close to Demon Spirit City, how could we not find it here if it were there?” Qin Wuyang also began to waver.

Upon hearing this, Han Qi laughed and said, "Actually, I already knew this would be the result before I went to the herbal medicine shop. Anyone who knows the effects of these two herbs would definitely not sell them; they would all hide them for their own use. The Ascension Grass and the Crimson Blood Spirit Fruit have one thing in common: they are both the main ingredients for cleansing the marrow and can change a person's constitution. This Black Heart Demon Soul Flower only takes two hours from sprouting to withering, and it cannot be preserved without special treatment."

Upon hearing Han Qi's words, Tang Siyu said irritably, "If you already know the result, why did you ask? You're just deliberately trying to make things difficult." With that, she punched Han Qi in the back.

Han Qi smiled and said nonchalantly, "Do you know that the fewer people who know about these two herbs, the more advantageous it is for us!"

After Han Qi said that, Tang Siyu thought for a moment and smiled.

"How cunning!" Qin Wuyang said with a sly grin, pointing at Han Qi.

"Let's go to a restaurant for a big meal. I've been taking fasting pills for a while now, and my taste buds are really bland. It's time to satisfy my cravings," Han Qi said leisurely. A restaurant was right in front of them, its aroma of food and wine wafting through the air, making their mouths water.

So, the group booked a private room, ordered a large table of delicacies, and began to feast.

Actually, Han Qi came to the restaurant not just to satisfy his cravings, but also because it was an open place with all sorts of people, making it a place where outside information could be obtained very quickly.

Han Qi noticed the news being told by the diners next door. One of them whispered, "According to rumors, the Ten Thousand Demons Sect is recruiting disciples again. They say they'll be recruiting next month. This is the fourth time they've recruited this year. Is the Ten Thousand Demons Sect really short of people?"

"I've heard about this too. They say that as long as you have excellent aptitude, they can help you reach the level of a demon god by spending resources."

"So someone with my qualifications definitely has no chance?"

"Given the opportunity, the Wanmo Sect doesn't have such high requirements for disciples of the alchemy lineage," the person who wrote the words said with a slightly mocking tone.

"I won't go and be their herb-gathering apprentice no matter what. If I'm recruited, I'll just be gathering herbs, which will delay my cultivation. I'd rather stay home and comprehend it on my own."

After saying that, the two laughed and changed the subject.

Han Qi thought to himself: If those with good aptitude are to be trained into demon gods, then it's like training an army of demon gods for the Demon Lord.

Then someone else said, "Recently, high-level demonic beasts have been attacking people again in Demon Spirit Mountain. During the day, several disciples from a small gang were slaughtered in Demon Spirit Mountain. Someone saw it and came back to say so."

"It must be news from the Ten Thousand Demons Sect again. The recent reports of high-level demonic beasts injuring people all came from the Ten Thousand Demons Sect."

"Yes, after the sect leader of the Ten Thousand Demons Sect went into seclusion, their activities became more frequent."

"The acting sect leader is just making a big show of things as a new official. It seems the sect leader won't be coming out of seclusion anytime soon."

Seeing that Han Qi had forgotten to eat while listening to others' discussions, Qin Wuyang listened in as well. At this moment, Qin Wuyang said, "This sect leader has most likely gone to the imperial city. The teleportation array in the imperial city should have been built under his supervision."

Upon hearing this, Han Qi nodded solemnly and said, "Little girl, who do you plan to visit first when you go to the Ten Thousand Demons Sect? I heard that the former sect leader is currently in seclusion."

Tang Siyu, engrossed in her meal, said without even looking up, "The sect leader isn't here. Let's find the Grand Elder. I know him. Even if he doesn't have it, he'll let us up the mountain, unlike the Shimo Sect."

As soon as she finished speaking, Tang Siyu's expression suddenly changed drastically. She screamed and fell to the ground, her whole body began to convulse, and her face grew increasingly pale.

Han Qi had a bad feeling. He had forgotten that it was supposed to be a few days before the poison took effect. He quickly picked her up, bit his own hand until it bled, and pressed it directly onto Tang Siyu's mouth.

Chen Wei quickly went outside to greet the people who had come to watch the commotion and said, "I'm sorry to bother you all. My sister accidentally broke a cup and startled her. Please forgive her!" He then bowed to them to express his apologies.

"Tch! It's just a cup, why make such a fuss?" The visitors left, looking somewhat disappointed.

Qin Wuyang was stunned by Han Qi's series of smooth movements, which were performed in one go. However, Tang Siyu in Han Qi's arms gradually calmed down and slowly recovered.

Seeing Han Qi's hand on her mouth, she pushed him away, but was stunned when she saw the wound and blood on his hand.
