God of Pets

Chapter 354 Poison

Fortunately, the destructive power of low-level mystic spirits is limited. As long as you are not harmed by them, the toxins will have difficulty invading your body.

Chen Guan possesses the Heavenly Overlord Body, so he is not afraid of low-level secret spirits with potent poisons, but he is still somewhat worried about high-level poisons that are inherently very destructive.

As fate would have it, the poisonous frog, while eating insects, quickly spotted Chen Guan and Fu Tianji.

With a sudden leap, it covered a distance of more than ten meters in an instant, and in a few moments it was within reach of Chen Guan and Fu Tianji. It stared at Chen Guan and Fu Tianji with its eyes wide open, looking left and right, as if it was choosing which of the two dishes to eat first.

Chen Guan was ready to activate the Pure Yang Sword Immortal at any time. The reason he didn't take the initiative to attack was because he was afraid that Fu Tianji would rush up again.

His wounds had only just begun to scab over; if he fought Fu Tianji again, they would probably all burst open again.

"Go bite him...go bite him..." Chen Guan prayed silently, hoping that the poisonous frog would bite Fu Tianji and see if Fu Tianji would still know how to fight back.

The poisonous frog looked around for a while, then suddenly sprang up and charged towards Chen Guan.

"You choose the path to heaven but refuse to take it, you choose the path to hell but refuse to walk it. Looks like I'll have to give my cat a little treat." Chen Guan saw the poisonous frog hop over and prepared to use the Pure Yang Sword Immortal technique.

Chen Guan didn't particularly like poison-type spirits, and he even gave the Ten Thousand Poison Insect King a perfunctory name.

The main reason I don't like them is because poison-type spirits are very dangerous. Many cultivators who raise poison-type spirits have died after being accidentally injured by their own poisonous pets.

This thing can poison you and there's no antidote. Even its owner can't be immune to its toxins, and it could easily kill them if you're not careful.

Someone as valuing of life as Chen Guan would naturally dislike this type of mysterious spirit.

Just as Chen Guan was about to activate the Pure Yang Sword Immortal, a flash of purple light appeared, and the Purple Gold Hammer smashed the poisonous frog to pieces in mid-air, spraying blood and flesh everywhere.

Fu Tianji, who had killed the poisonous frog, retrieved his Purple Gold Melon Hammer and remained standing there, staring at Chen Guan.

"What does that mean? They don't want me to die, they want to torture me to death with their own hands, right?" Chen Guan thought to himself, "Just how much do they hate me?"

However, this gave Chen Guan a business opportunity. He thought to himself, "Could I lure Fu Tianji to a place with powerful spirits and use Fu Tianji's subconscious desire to prevent me from dying so easily to kill the spirits that are attacking me, thereby hunting down high-level spirits?"

Chen Guan thought this might be feasible. Although Fu Tianji had only just reached the third awakening stage, he had four Mystic Gods Zi Xuan fused within him. Ordinary third-awakening Mystic Spirits would probably not be his match.

That's what he thought, but Chen Guan still needed to heal his injuries first.

As Chen Guan was pondering this, he noticed that something was amiss with Fu Tianji.

Fu Tianji, who had been staring at him, now had drooping eyelids and almost closed his eyes several times. His body was also not as tense as before, as if he was extremely sleepy but was forcing himself not to fall asleep.

"He was poisoned? Was that poisonous frog really that potent?" Chen Guan immediately understood what had happened and looked at Fu Tianji.

When Fu Tianji smashed the poisonous frog, he was splattered with a lot of its blood.

In his current state, Fu Tianji is completely unaware of the poison, nor will he try to avoid it; his body is currently covered in poisonous frog blood.

“Fu Tianji is a third-level cultivator, and he is extremely powerful. He also has the Purple Profound Protection. The fact that the poisonous frog’s toxin could affect him shows how potent the poison is.” Chen Guan looked around and, seeing that he hadn’t been splashed with the poisonous frog’s blood, secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

thump!
Fu Tianji collapsed, and Chen Guan watched as he fell asleep immediately, soon snoring. "Is it that poisonous?" Chen Guan was both surprised and delighted. He quickly got up from the ground and stepped back a distance, keeping a safe distance from the poisonous frog's corpse.

Chen Guan could hardly believe that Fu Tianji had been taken down by a poisonous frog.

However, judging from Fu Tianji's condition, it doesn't seem to be a deadly poison. He appears to be just asleep, and his breathing is still long and strong.

"Should we take advantage of his illness and kill him?" Chen Guan hesitated.

He had really wanted to get rid of Fu Tianji before, but now that Fu Tianji had become like this, he was basically no threat to him anymore, and he might even be able to use him.

Ignoring Fu Tianji for now, Chen Guan first summoned the King of Ten Thousand Poisons, Mao Mao, and sent it to eat the poisonous frog's toxins.

Mao Mao lives on toxins, and to level up, it needs to eat poisonous blood.

This poison frog's blood is so poisonous, I reckon if Mao Mao ate it, he'd probably level up a few times.

After Mao Mao came out, he was like a chubby little boy who had found a cake. He crawled over quickly, his body arching, and lay down on the poisonous blood to suck it up.

Shortly after, Chen Guan received a message that Mao Mao's level had been upgraded.

It seems that the poison frog's toxins are indeed a great tonic, as Mao Mao's level has been rising steadily, reaching level 7 in no time.

Chen Guan even wondered if Mao Mao would level up to level 10 once she had sucked all the poisonous frog's blood.

As the upgraded Mao Mao grew, its body continued to grow larger.

Originally only about a foot long, Mao Mao grows several centimeters each time it levels up, and now it's about two feet long.

As the hairy creature grew up, it didn't look as pleasing to the eye as before. Its colorful body looked even more terrifying as it grew larger.

They looked quite cute when they were little, but they became more and more terrifying as they grew older.

Just as Chen Guan had expected, after Mao Mao absorbed the poison frog's toxins, its level indeed reached level 10, and its size exceeded one meter. Moreover, it was round and plump, looking quite frightening.

Unfortunately, its speed, strength, and physical resilience haven't improved much. It moves a bit faster than before, but it's still not as good as other mystical spirits.

Chen Guan estimated that this poisonous frog was likely a third-awakening spirit, which was why it had such a powerful effect, allowing Mao Mao to level up directly to level 10.

It's just unknown what conditions are needed for Mao Mao to awaken a second time; theoretically, it should require more toxins.

Chen Guan simply let Mao Mao hunt nearby on its own. Its venom is very potent, and a poison-type spirit of the same level should be no match for it.

Chen Guan walked over to Fu Tianji and picked up a purple-gold mace that had fallen to the ground; it was very heavy.

These are divine artifacts. If we kill Fu Tianji, we might not get any other benefits, but we can definitely keep these four maces and four hammers.

To acquire eight divine treasures at once was undoubtedly a windfall for Chen Guan.
