Legend of the Transcendent

Chapter 256: Reunion

Yang Shan watched Mi Xiaojing with desperate eyes, fully aware of the terror of the poison. Once it invaded his Dan Tian in the abdomen and contaminated his Golden Elixir, he wouldn't be able to withstand it.

He secretly hoped, watching as the Poison Lotus floated up, hovering over his abdomen.

Then he witnessed a peculiar scene: a Poisonous Thread emerged from the root of Yang Shan's thigh, slowly touching the Poison Lotus. Xiaojing softly commanded, "Rotate!"

The Poison Lotus began to spin like a windmill, drawing out the Poisonous Thread bit by bit. In just a few moments, the thread was absorbed by Mi Xiaojing's Poison Lotus.

The Poison Lotus, which had been somewhat ethereal, became slightly more vivid after absorbing the Poisonous Thread. Mi Xiaojing's heart stirred, and he threw the Poison Lotus with a flick of his hand while uttering a single-word true incantation.

Gather!

Rotate!

The Poison Lotus began to spin rapidly, drifting along and instantly absorbing the Poisonous Threads scattered around. At this time, the Poison Lotus that had been aimlessly floating in the distance and landing on corpses was also attracted by Mi Xiaojing's Poison Lotus and drifted towards him.

Yong Ji and Yang Shan were dumbfounded. Neither had expected Mi Xiaojing to have such a bizarre method. Was this the poison used by an Elemental Infant stage expert, and it was just neutralized by Mi Xiaojing?

The two Poison Lotuses collided silently, instantly forming a water jar-sized lotus flower, blood-red and vivid to the extreme.

.

Mi Xiaojing could feel the presence of the Poison Lotus and had an intangible connection with it. With a thought, the bright red lotus floated back to him.

As the Poison Lotus approached, Yong Ji and Yang Shan couldn't help but step back. Only then did Yang Shan realize that the Poisonous Thread in his body was completely gone, and he was overjoyed. However, seeing the bright red Poison Lotus, he still couldn't help but feel palpitations, an instinctive fear that kept him from getting close.

Mi Xiaojing was also somewhat nervous, unsure if his Poison Lotus could completely neutralize the Thousand Poisons' Poison Lotus. After a moment's hesitation, he gritted his teeth and extended his palm. In an instant, countless Spirit Script chains formed and extended along his arm, connecting with the bright red Poison Lotus.

Seeing the golden Spirit Script chains, Mi Xiaojing immediately relaxed. He knew the perversion of this thing; almost nothing could escape the entanglement of these chains.

The Poison Lotus, which had originally swelled to the size of a water jar, began to shrink instantly once the golden Spirit Script chains were applied, quickly becoming the size of a fist.

Now looking at the Poison Lotus, it was truly a sight to behold, beautiful to the extreme. The bright red petals, like carved jade, shimmered with a faint light, making the Poison Lotus incredibly enchanting.

Through the Spirit Script chains, Mi Xiaojing sensed that this Poison Lotus was different from his original one. The current Poison Lotus was much more powerful than before.

The Poison Lotus gently turned and landed in Mi Xiaojing's palm. By this time, Yong Ji and Yang Shan understood that Mi Xiaojing had successfully collected the Poison Lotus, and they couldn't help but marvel, not expecting Mi Xiaojing to have such a skill.

The two watched as the Poison Lotus gradually disappeared without a trace.

Mi Xiaojing smoothly absorbed the Poison Lotus into his body and sat down cross-legged again, paying no attention to Yong Ji and Yang Shan. He needed to observe the changes in the Dan Tian's Heart Tower.

When the Poison Lotus entered the Dan Tian, the other three Poison Lotuses immediately gathered around the newcomer and began to assimilate. In just a few moments, the four lotuses separated, circling around the decoy, all turning bright red!

Mi Xiaojing was secretly delighted; he found that he could release these four Poison Lotuses at any time.

As Mi Xiaojing collected the Poison Lotus, Thousand Poisons, who was still battling Brahman Sa and her husband, immediately sensed it. The Poison Lotus was actually left behind by Thousand Poisons on purpose. He needed to use the corpses of Cultivators and mortals to nurture this Poison Lotus. However, he never imagined that he would lose contact with the Poison Lotus.

What he couldn't understand the most was who could destroy or take away the Poison Lotus he had left behind. He almost immediately thought of one person.

Ancestor Gu Ban!

Thinking of this, Thousand Poisons broke out in a cold sweat. If it was Ancestor Gu Ban who had destroyed the Poison Lotus, he wouldn't have the slightest thought of returning. That old fellow was too terrifying; he had no qualifications to fight against him. Although extremely annoyed, Thousand Poisons didn't dwell on it. If it was gone, it was gone.

This was originally Thousand Poisons' contingency plan. If the Poison Lotus had devoured all the corpses, its power would have greatly increased. By then, he would have the confidence to make Brahman Sa and Yin Jin suffer by turning back with them.

In a flash of thought, Thousand Poisons continued to fly into the distance. Without his contingency plan, he no longer considered circling back to Hidden Huo City, as that might lead to an encounter with Ancestor Gu Ban, and he had no confidence in facing such an expert.

Mi Xiaojing, on the other hand, hadn't expected that collecting the Poison Lotus would have the added benefit of scaring away Thousand Poisons. Just then, a message came back from the paper owl. Mi Xiaojing glanced at it and couldn't help but smile.

Zhang Ke and Luo Bo were in a forest not far away. Mi Xiaojing breathed a sigh of relief. As long as they were safe, everything was going smoothly. Moreover, he had obtained the treasure from the Heart Sect's Mysterious Heaven Formation.

When the snipe and the clam grapple, it's the fisherman who benefits!

This time, Mi Xiaojing was the fisherman.Regardless of whether it was the Heart Sect or the Vast Gold Sect, or even the hired experts, each party was a loser. Only Mi Xiaojing, who muddied the waters to fish, reaped the greatest rewards. Moreover, Zhang Ke and his group encountered no mishaps, which greatly lifted his spirits.

Yong Ji inquired, "Did you find them?"

Mi Xiaojing replied with a joyful smile, "Yes, they fled from the start, right into the forest. Let's go!"

The trio took to the skies, with Mi Xiaojing leading the two towards the forest. With a clear direction, locating Zhang Ke and the others was easy. Gliding close to the treetops, they quickly found the crowd that had set up wooden shelters.

Mi Xiaojing and his companions landed by the stream, immediately startling the group of lumberjacks.

Upon seeing Mi Xiaojing descend, Luo Bo exclaimed with surprise and delight, "Brother Xiao Mi! Haha, Brother Xiao Mi is back!"

In an instant, the heart that had been hanging in suspense was finally at ease. It felt as if they had found their backbone, for having advanced to the Foundation Establishment stage, Luo Bo had become the strongest among them and naturally one of the main decision-makers, even though he was still a child.

Zhang Ke, carrying a log, heard Luo Bo's shout, let go of the wood, and ran over, joyfully saying, "It's great that Little Uncle Master is here!"

Mu Xiaoyin stood silently, watching Mi Xiaojing without saying a word.

As for Wei Fu, Mao Tou, and Da Zhu, they too gathered around, their little faces flushed with excitement. With Mi Xiaojing present, they all felt at ease.

During this time, their hearts had been filled with fear and unease, and the chaotic news had left them unsure of what to do. Now that Mi Xiaojing was back, he would be the one to decide their future. To be continued.
