Chapter 434 The Process of Adding the Drug
Upon hearing the word "poisoning," Zhong Cai showed a hint of interest.
"Oh? What kind of poison?"
Wu Dongxiao scratched his face but did not answer.
Zhong Cai was taken aback—why did this kid seem a little embarrassed?
Then he looked at Xuan Bing.
Xuan Bing coughed lightly, his face slightly flushed.
Zhong Cai: Wow.
...What kind of poison is it that makes it so difficult for the two of them to talk about?
In an instant, many guesses came to mind.
Zhong Cai couldn't help but chuckle, and said with a smile, "Quick! Tell me about it!"
Wu Shaogan's gaze also fell upon them.
Wu Dongxiao knew he was doomed the moment he saw him; his uncle was going to be watching him as he told Uncle Zhong a story!
He silently looked at his senior brother.
Xuan Bing: "..."
Xuan Bing silently turned around.
Wu Dongxiao: "..."
Alright, now we can't even count on our senior brothers.
So Wu Dongxiao began to speak hesitantly, haltingly, and in a very low voice.
"I used... music... and..."
Even though Wu Dongxiao had already lowered his voice to a very low level, he still couldn't escape Zhong Cai's ears.
After all, he was very familiar with drugs at levels seven and below.
Zhong Cai picked at her ears, thinking she had misheard.
"You mean..." Zhong Cai's eyelids twitched, "You mainly use Ecstasy Powder? But it's not the only one?"
Wu Dongxiao nodded, feigning calmness.
The next moment, he seemed to recall the scene from that time and involuntarily shivered.
Zhong Cai also imagined it.
Then, he rubbed the goosebumps that had suddenly appeared on his arms.
The uncle and nephew exchanged a glance.
Wu Dongxiao remained silent.
Zhong Cai couldn't help but burst out laughing.
"Hahaha! Blissful Powder isn't poison! You're talking about poisoning, but this isn't poisoning at all..."
·
The so-called "Paradise Powder" is actually one of the most potent aphrodisiacs among low- to medium-grade drugs.
It is on par with Yunyulu, Huanqingdan, and Hehuanxiang.
Once these drugs are used, they will cause endless desires to surge in the cultivator's heart. The more one craves pleasure, the more easily one will be influenced and quickly become trapped in it, unable to extricate oneself.
Among them, Yunyulu is a natural treasure, and the medicinal materials required for Hehuanxiang and Huanqingdan are some of the rare or expensive ones... Only Jile San has the best cost performance.
Perhaps due to the significant difference in the value of the ingredients, while Jile San is extremely effective, its medicinal properties are more potent than the other three, and it also has considerable aftereffects—such as being weak for several days.
Therefore, Wu Dongxiao, who was very stingy in order to pay off his debts, tried his best not to go for expensive aphrodisiacs.
Ultimately, Wu Dongxiao chose the Blissful Powder and the Acacia Fragrance.
Among them, the Blissful Powder is at level four and five, and the Acacia Fragrance is at level six.
·
Seeing his Uncle Zhong laughing like that, Wu Dongxiao decided to throw caution to the wind, forgetting his previous embarrassment, and began to recount what had happened back then.
Although Wu Dongxiao was very interested in the high bounty offered by Zhong Cai, he originally only planned to work with his senior brother to hunt down some lone evil cultivators, focusing on safety and minimizing chain reactions.
He knew himself well and had taken precautions. Even when he went to Tingfeng Tower to buy information, he only bought information about a few individual evil cultivators.
But who would have thought that after Wu Dongxiao and Xuan Bing very cautiously joined forces to kill a heretic at the peak of the Fusion Realm, they discovered that this guy, who was supposedly a rogue cultivator, actually had a crazy father behind him!
That crazy father is at the Spirit Transformation Realm!
The evil cultivator who was already dead was very cunning. When he faced Wu Xuan and the other two, he realized that he couldn't defeat them. So he used a secret method to send a message to his mad father, hoping that his mad father would come to save him and that he could also get two excellent materials for refining.
As it turned out, the evil Taoist priest did not expect that Wu Xuan and his companion would kill him so easily. His mad father only arrived after he was killed!
Wu Dongxiao and Xuan Bing were equally surprised to be attacked by a Spirit Transformation cultivator!
Xuan Bing reacted immediately, instinctively grabbing Wu Dongxiao and using a special teleportation talisman.
The two obtained this teleportation talisman from some ruins. In theory, it should be able to teleport them to places thousands of miles away in any direction. However, perhaps due to the evolution over a long period of time, this thing actually teleported them to tens of thousands of miles away! And it even took several detours along the way!
They successfully escaped from the clutches of that spirit.
The mad father who transformed into a spirit was actually very fast, able to travel thousands of miles in an instant, but because of the talisman's bend, he couldn't track the correct direction and thus failed to catch the two.
Later, this mad father went back and turned his son's corpse into a human puppet—of course, Wu Xuan and the other man didn't know this at first, but later they heard about the mad father's name and what he did afterward.
·
When Zhong Cai heard about the teleportation talisman, he secretly found it amusing.
What do you mean by the passage of time? It's just the protagonist's halo!
If it wasn't Dongxiao who got this talisman, he might not have been able to change course after the teleportation.
Perhaps, at most, it can only transport people a few thousand miles.
Wu Dongxiao continued speaking.
"Unexpectedly, as soon as my senior brother and I stood firm, we realized that something was wrong with the situation around us."
·
After Wu Xuan and his companion successfully escaped the Spirit Transformation pursuers, they only needed to inquire about their location nearby to find their way to other places using the map.
However, to their surprise, they immediately saw a fusion of evil paths when they looked up.
Wu Dongxiao and Xuan Bing attacked instinctively, killing the evil Taoist priest instantly.
Then they found the token in this evil man's bag, and realized that this guy was actually a mountain patrolman... Since he was a mountain patrolman, he probably had a powerful force behind him.
The two became extra careful.
Then, they discovered that there really was a wicked bandit stronghold in a valley deep in the mountains.
After roughly sensing the aura within, it can be discovered that there are three palaces alone!
All the others are at the Fusion or Suspended Illumination levels—it's probably because this village doesn't accept anyone below the Suspended Illumination level.
Well, the strength of this heretical village is a perfect match for the two brothers' current abilities.
The evil mountain bandits at the Suspended Illumination and Fusion realms were simply offering themselves up for death. Even if there were many of them, as long as the two of them used the array plate to trap these bandits, they could slaughter them one by one. It was just that it would be more troublesome to carry out the operation.
Those three palaces would pose a considerable danger.
But after all, they were only one major realm higher than Wu Xuan and the other two. If the two brothers thought of a better way, they might be able to kill them.
It can be considered a case of "fortune favors the bold".
·
Wu Dongxiao and Xuan Bing discussed tactics for a long time and observed the situation in the village. While not daring to make any rash moves, they were determined to take the village.
The main problem is that it's been delivered right to their doorstep—based on their experience, if they don't accept it, there will likely be endless trouble later on.
When Wu Xuan and his companion hid nearby, they used an array to conceal their presence, lest they be accidentally discovered by the evil cultivators.
Then, they witnessed firsthand the scene of these evil cultists carrying out a targeted robbery.
Those three cultivators were extremely powerful, the weakest of whom was at the mid-stage of the Foundation Establishment realm. They had a wide range of methods and were extremely cruel during their raids. Even if the targets they chose had reached the Foundation Establishment realm, they were still tortured to death by them, and their bodies were kept and seemingly to be turned into human puppets.
Wu Dongxiao immediately frowned.
Xuan Bing also sensed that the situation was not good.
From the conversation among the evil sect members, it can be inferred that they seem to still have quite a few human puppets at their disposal.
Although it is unknown how many of those puppets have reached the Palace Building Realm, each person has at least one—the details of the evil sects are unknown, so it is impossible to determine what methods to use to deal with them.
The two brothers had no choice but to continue observing.
·
Zhong Cai looked at Wu Dongxiao and saw a subtle expression on his face, but he smiled without saying a word.
It seems that another great coincidence is about to occur.
As the protagonist, Dongxiao's luck stat should naturally have a powerful effect.
·
And that is indeed the case.
These wicked mountain bandits, lacking in willpower and fond of pleasure, immediately indulged in drinking and fine food, enjoying themselves to the fullest.
Wu Dongxiao had originally considered drugging them, but the heretics were often very sensitive to poisons, and many poisons not only had strong smells but also strange colors. If he actually used poison, it would probably arouse their suspicion more easily.
Afterwards, Wu Dongxiao suddenly had a whimsical idea.
Then I won't use poison! I'll use an aphrodisiac!
Besides, why isn't aphrodisiac poison a poison?
The effects of aphrodisiacs gradually increase with the inhalation of alcohol. Cultivators who drink alcohol are also more prone to developing desires. Moreover, aphrodisiacs are generally very easy to dissolve, so their characteristics are not very obvious.
In order to bring these heretical practices completely under the control of "Spring Poison," Wu Dongxiao carefully considered and adopted a "progressive" method of administering the medicine.
First, he used his stored medicinal herbs to prepare some level four and level five Bliss Powder.
Then, using the last remaining concealment talisman, Wu Dongxiao sneaked into the place where the bandits stored their liquor and personally mixed the Bliss Powder into these evil liquors—all of them were mixed in, only the grade and quantity were different.
For example, the Suspended Illumination uses half the weight of the fourth level, the Fusion uses half the weight of the fifth level, and the Palace Construction uses the normal weight of the fifth level.
The rich aroma of the liquor itself was enough to mask the very faint spiciness of the "Gokurakusan" (a type of savory drink).
Sure enough, the heretical practitioners of Suspense and Fusion quickly felt their bodies heat up after drinking, but they only thought it was because they had drunk too much alcohol, since they had not drunk much aphrodisiac and the aphrodisiac was quite special.
Before long, several cultivators also became somewhat intoxicated. The level of the Bliss Powder they were taking was lower than their own cultivation level, making it even more difficult for them to detect that their physical movements were due to the effects of the Bliss Powder.
Even if some people with superstitious beliefs feel their body heat up faster, under the influence of alcohol, most of them assume that the alcohol itself contains some "strengthening" herbs and do not suspect that they have been drugged.
...After all, there are many instances of poisoning between righteous and evil cultivators, but I've never heard of anyone using aphrodisiacs.
Seeing that things were going well, Wu Dongxiao followed his plan and quickly went to a place with a favorable wind to light the acacia incense.
Wu Dongxiao didn't know when he got his hands on the level 6 Hehuan Incense. It was probably something he casually collected during a chance encounter and then naturally put it away.
Now it comes in handy.
Thus, the fragrance of the mimosa tree spread faintly, carried by the wind to those heretics.
The heretics, drunkenly inhaling some smoke, were instantly induced by two aphrodisiacs.
Mixed aphrodisiacs—especially top-grade ones—have a synergistic effect, making the consequences even more terrifying.
Immediately, one of the evil cultivators pulled over a female evil cultivator next to him and they rolled around on the spot together.
Some heretics aren't content rolling around in pairs; they even roll around in groups of several!
Wu Dongxiao waited patiently.
Gradually, the full power of the acacia incense erupted, causing all the evil cultivators to lose their senses and pull their "companions" around them.
Throughout the valley, the evil cultivators were extremely fierce, and the area was packed with people.
Just a casual glance inside was enough to make one feel somewhat distressed.
It was also because the effects of the drug were so terrifying that the evil cultivators no longer had the ability to think clearly. Their minds were filled with desires, and they all wanted to find someone to take care of them as soon as possible... And since they were all practicing evil ways, who would be able to restrain themselves?
So in the blink of an eye, the heretical cultivators had swarmed everywhere, leaving no room to even step.
·
Wu Dongxiao remained in the talisman-affixed state and quietly re-entered the valley.
—As is well known, once someone is under the influence of a powerful aphrodisiac, it is very difficult for them to regain their senses once they are caught up in lust.
If Wu Dongxiao were to attempt to ambush several conscious Zhugongs, there's a high chance of something unexpected going wrong. Even if he succeeds in ambushing one, he'll likely find himself surrounded by the others. And if he wanted to use poison, given his level of cultivation, he couldn't possibly force a Zhugong to take it.
But what if the heretics are busy suppressing and fighting each other...
Wu Dongxiao witnessed these heretical cultivators building their palaces in a chaotic and dazed manner, their minds completely absorbed in that matter, and they didn't notice their surroundings at all... So he swiftly took out the level-six poison he had in stock and fed it to them one by one when he had a spare moment.
Once the poison took effect, the palace guards were unable to resist.
Now comes the moment of harvest.
·
Zhong Cai said knowingly, "Then you and Senior Brother Xuan went to get your heads chopped off."
Wu Dongxiao nodded: "Let's focus on killing Zhugong first, then we can deal with the other realms."
However, although he had expected the aphrodisiac to be effective, the effect was really too good.
The annihilation of the entire bandit stronghold was much easier than he had originally imagined.
The process was just a bit embarrassing to talk about.
Zhong Cai smiled and said, "This thing is useful, but its success is largely due to your strange luck. Don't use it as a regular method in the future."
Wu Dongxiao readily agreed, "I understand, Uncle Zhong."
