Chapter 1039 Poison Restriction Divine Curse, Refining the Gaze (2)

Chapter 1039 Poison Restriction Divine Curse, Refining the Gaze (2)

Coupled with the Dao of herbs taught by Grandmaster Bai, he could make use of the theory of fighting poison with poison to suppress the Crimson Goddess's curse.

It was easy to say but in reality, this required a large number of experiments and concoctions. If it was outside, it would be extremely difficult for Xu Qing to complete it alone.

The most troublesome part was the materials. There weren't many precious treasures for him to experiment with and find the correct formula.

However, here, it wasn't an issue.

An intense glint appeared in Xu Qing's eyes.

"Vegetation is indeed the key to unlocking the path of the divine."

Xu Qing mumbled. He was aware that this was actually also Illuminate's understanding.

Just like that, time flowed by.

Seven days passed.

Seven days here was only two hours in the outside world.

It would be very difficult for others to know the passing of time here. However, Xu Qing had the sundials in his body. Through the needle of the sundial, he could clearly distinguish the changes in time.

"Two hours outside means seven days here. In other words, one day outside means nearly three months here?"

Xu Qing was a little surprised; this ability was really astonishing. He instinctively felt that it couldn't last endlessly like the white-robed old man had said. There was a high chance that there was an end to it.

"It's unlikely that I will be able to stay here for long… I don't have much time left."

At the thought of this, Xu Qing quietly changed the pill formula. It looked like he had been refining pills but every seven to eight stalks of medicinal herbs he manifested would include a stalk of poisonous plant.

When the quantity reached a certain level, Xu Qing began to refine poison pills.

"Falling Moon Broken Star Leaf, Nine Nether Spirit Centipede Root, Undying Hom Blood…"

Xu Qing didn't reveal his emotions and suppressed the excitement in his heart. He slowly shaped the poisonous grasses in his memory and began to refine the poison pill.

These poisonous pills were all concoctions that he had studied in the Poison Dao for so many years but had been unable to attempt due to lack of materials. At this moment, as he refined them, Xu Qing felt an indescribable sense of relief, thinking that this place was a holy land for alchemists."

His attainments in plants and vegetation also improved through these repeated refinements.

Not only did he materialize those rare poisonous grasses, but there were also many rare treasures. It could be said that he had everything he needed.

He even tried to shape toxic beasts, but it was a pity that they couldn't be formed here.

This made Xu Qing feel some regret.

However, it was still alright. At the very least, there were enough herbs. Hence, as the days passed, the number of poisonous pills Xu Qing refined increased.

Jade Spirit Poison Millet Powder, Absolute Yin Red Pill, Three-Headed Poison Feather Pill, Thousand Night Ghosts Cry, Broken Heart Divine Liquid, Fire Thunder Powder, and Quinine Life Severing Poison.

Half Moon, Seven Breaths Smile, Yang Fire Face, Nine Abysses Bridge.

Xu Qing looked at the colorful medicinal pills of various sizes in front of him and endless waves rose in his heart. He really wished he could take these pills out of here.

"If I have these poison… my combat strength will increase by a great extent."

Xu Qing sighed. He knew that this was unrealistic. Hence, he lifted one and placed it into his mouth, slowly tasting it.

At the next instant, his body trembled as he sensed the eruption of poison.

At that moment, the figure of the white-robed old man appeared in the mirror lake under his feet. He looked at Xu Qing with no transformation in his expression and calmly spoke.

"These are all fake. It's useless for you to swallow them."

Xu Qing opened his eyes and gazed at the white-robed old man. As he let his body remember the feeling brought about by the poison, he spoke hoarsely.

"I encountered a bottleneck in refining the curse subduing pill and need to break through it in other ways. So, even if it's fake, I have to personally try it and sense this fake change, searching for the possibility of breaking through the bottleneck."

The white-robed old man cast a deep glance at Xu Qing before glancing at the colorful medicinal pills in front of Xu Qing.

Xu Qing took a deep breath and picked up another one. Under the other party's gaze, he continued to swallow it and sense it.

Just like that, half a month passed.

Almost ninety percent of the poisonous plants and poison pills from his memory were brought into existence by Xu Qing. There were even some that he had personally created.

As he continued to devour them, the pupils of his eyes gradually enlarged and finally replaced the whites of his eyes, causing his eyes to be pitch-black.

The white-robed old man had appeared many times in the past few dawns and observed Xu Qing.

He originally didn't understand and didn't know what Xu Qing was doing. This place was clearly fake. In his opinion, it was meaningless to eat so many fake pills.

This lasted until… he noticed Xu Qing's eyes. At that moment, the white-robed old man understood.

"The medicinal pills and plants are fake but the feeling in the body is real. This kid… is memorizing the feeling after swallowing these pills!"

"He's using his memories to invisibly plunder the source power here!"

The white-robed old man's expression was no longer indifferent. Instead, for the first time, there were some fluctuations in his emotions. There was shock and anger.

"The trial will end in two hours. If you can't complete it by then, you will be sealed!"

A black glint flashed in Xu Qing's eyes. He was only a small step away from completion.

Hence, after nodding slightly, he closed his sight and performed a series of hand seals with both hands. Immediately, poisonous grass emerged again.

There were thousands of them.

After manifesting them, Xu Qing didn't even refine them. He opened his mouth and swallowed these medicinal herbs. There were also some that he crushed with a punch, turning them into mist that enveloped his entire body.

As sizzling sounds echoed, Xu Qing, who was enveloped by the mist, let out a deep shout. The power of the Poison Restriction erupted from within him.

This scene caused the white-robed old man's expression to change. In his judgment, this cultivator in front of him had already shown an unstable change. Hence, with a wave of his hand, cold air spread out from under his feet. After it seeped into the lake, it emerged around Xu Qing.
