Battle Through the Heavens: Exceptional Comprehension, Becomes Emperor at Ten Years Old

Chapter 36 Strange Fire? Yan Li's Ecstasy!

The alchemists standing nearby were all astonished. The deadly poison that had left them helpless had been neutralized so easily.

Gah then used the same method to remove the deadly poison from the bodies of the remaining people.

Upon realizing that it was Jiahe who had saved them, the men knelt before him and said, "Thank you for saving our lives, sir!"

With a flick of his sleeve, Jiahe gently lifted the group up, saying, "It was nothing. After the poison is removed, you'll need to rest and recuperate!"

"Now that you're awake, I'd like to ask you some questions!" Gahe said, looking at the group.

"Sir, please ask!" The group looked at Gah with solemn expressions.

Gah asked, "Did you see anything, or sense anything unusual that night?"

One of the middle-aged men said, "Something was definitely off that night. I had just come out of the Monster Mountain Range and was injured, so I was thinking of cultivating to recover!"

"But around midnight, I suddenly smelled a faint, fishy stench, so I went outside to check. As soon as I opened the door, I felt dizzy and lost consciousness. Before I did, I saw a giant centipede appear in the sky above the city!"

"Yes, yes, I also saw a flying centipede. It was several meters long and had six pairs of wings on its back!" another person nodded and said.

Gah pondered, "Another six-winged centipede. It seems the person who poisoned it is raising a venomous beast!"

"Alright, you should all go back and get some rest!" Gahe nodded and said.

After thanking Jiahe repeatedly, these people helped each other leave the Wanyaozhai!

Gah looked at Mitchell and said, "First, refine some antidote and detoxifying pills for backup, in case someone tries anything underhanded!"

Mitchell nodded and said, "Okay, I'll have them start refining it right away!"

Soon, in the courtyard of Wan Yao Zhai, more than thirty alchemists began refining pills, and the faint fragrance of the pills began to waft out.

In a corner of Wan Yao Zhai, a middle-aged man stood there, a struggle flashing in his eyes. Finally, as if he had made a decision, he turned and left!

……

Inside a cave in the Monster Mountains.

The dark cave reeked of a foul stench, with a faint glimmer of light shining through.

Deep inside, two figures sat cross-legged by a campfire: an old man and a middle-aged man!

The old man was dressed in a light green robe. The flames illuminated his aged face, which was painted with a jet-black centipede that looked as if it were alive, giving people a sinister and terrifying feeling!

The middle-aged man, with a cold face and dressed in a black robe, looked at the old man with eyes like a venomous snake and said, "Elder Wu, after Qingcheng was massacred, the Jia Ma Empire will definitely be on alert. How about we go somewhere else?"

"Change the location? Why change the location? What I want is to make the people of the Gama Empire vigilant and make them send even stronger people so that they can test the toxicity of my Six-Winged Heavenly Centipede. Yan Li, if you are afraid, you can leave now!" The old man sneered.

This middle-aged man was Yan Li, the vice president of the Alchemist Guild of the Izumo Empire.

Because his cultivation of poison techniques has reached a bottleneck, he came to the Monster Mountain Range to find some poisonous beasts to devour and also to find some medicinal herbs!

The old man in front of us, known as Elder Centipede, is none other than Wuya, the Lord of the Centipede Heaven Palace of the Izumo Empire!

This person is ruthless and powerful, skilled in concocting potent poisons. This time, it was because his pet magical beast, the Six-Winged Centipede, broke through its limitations and its toxicity increased again. So he wanted to find someone to test the poison on, and finally chose to come to the Gama Empire!

Yan Li originally valued Wuya's strength and thought that following him would provide him with some protection. Who knew that this old guy would slaughter an entire city!

If he really attracts the strongest expert from the Jia Ma Empire, Wu Ya might be able to escape, but he might not be able to!

Just then, footsteps were heard outside the cave.

Yan Li suddenly became alert, got up and walked outside. A middle-aged man in a brocade robe hurriedly ran in from outside the cave.

"Halt!" A chilling aura echoed from within the cave.

The middle-aged man immediately stopped and looked into the depths of the cave, his voice trembling as he said, "Sir, it's me!"

Yan Li emerged from the darkness and looked at the middle-aged man, saying, "What are you doing here at this hour?"

If Little Fairy Doctor were here now and saw the middle-aged man, she would surely recognize him as Mr. Yao, the owner of Wan Yao Zhai!

Mr. Yao looked at Yan Li and said somewhat anxiously, "The Alchemists Guild of the Empire sent many alchemists this time, and they are currently at the Myriad Medicines Hall!"

Upon hearing this, Yan Li's eyes lit up, and he asked, "What are their approximate grades?"

Mr. Yao said, "Most of them are of the second or third rank, but the three leaders should be of the fourth rank!"

Upon hearing this, Yan Li burst into laughter, "Excellent! A fourth-rank alchemist must be an elder of the Alchemist Guild of the Jia Ma Empire. If they all die here, it will be a huge blow to the Alchemist Guild of the Jia Ma Empire!"

"Alright, I understand!" Yan Li then looked at Mr. Yao and said.

Mr. Yao looked hesitant. Yan Li frowned at him and said, "Just say what you have to say. Don't beat around the bush!"

Mr. Yao hesitated for a moment before saying, "You... the poison you administered to Qingcheng... several of the people there were saved!"

Yan Li frowned immediately, and another aged voice echoed from inside the cave: "Impossible!"

Then Mr. Yao felt a breeze, and Wuya appeared in front of him instantly. His terrifying face made him turn pale and his body tremble like a leaf!

"What did you just say?" Wu Ya's sinister eyes stared at Mr. Yao.

Suppressing his fear, Mr. Yao slowly said, "A young man came to Qingshan Town and used flames to force all the poison out of those people's bodies!"

Wu Ya's expression immediately darkened, while Yan Li exclaimed with some elation, "Flames? It really is flames?"

Mr. Yao nodded repeatedly and said, "I'm certain it was flames; I was right outside the door at the time."

Wuya said in a deep voice, "What kind of flame could force out my deadly poison?"

Yan Li was overjoyed, exclaiming, "A strange fire! It must be a strange fire! Only a strange fire could have such miraculous effects; it's the nemesis of all poisons in the world!"

"That's something every alchemist in the world dreams of. If I could obtain this strange fire, I might become a fifth-grade or even sixth-grade alchemist!" Yan Li said excitedly.

Wuya cultivates poisonous fighting qi, and has always kept his distance from flames, so naturally he has no interest in them!

"Since it's a strange fire, I'll use these alchemists to test the poison, and you can take the strange fire from the side, how about that?" Wuya said to Yanli.

Yan Li nodded in agreement to Wuya's suggestion almost without hesitation!
