Chapter 136: The advantages of securing a point beforehand become apparent.



My gaze was fixed on the Jianxing Peak ahead.

From this vantage point, combined with his previous observations of Jianxing Peak during the carriage journey, Chu Qinghe gained a general understanding of the peak's terrain.

After thinking for a while, Chu Qinghe said to Xiao Zhao, "Go and get a tree branch."

Upon hearing this, Xiao Zhao nodded and then quickly turned around.

A moment later, after Xiao Zhao returned to Chu Qinghe's side, she whispered:

"Young master, the tree branch has been brought."

Hearing the sound, Chu Qinghe turned his head to look.

But then we saw that Xiao Zhao was carrying a bundle of tree branches.

They range in size from as thick as a finger to as thick as an arm.

"This girl."

With a slight chuckle to himself, Chu Qinghe couldn't help but ruffle Xiao Zhao's hair. Then, he took a twig about the thickness of a thumb from among them and said, "Throw the rest away! The clothes are dirty."

"Um!"

Hearing what Chu Qinghe said, Xiao Zhao raised her hand and tossed the branch aside.

Seeing this, Chu Qinghe smiled slightly and then reached into his robes to pull out a small medicine bottle about two inches in size.

Looking at the thing in Chu Qinghe's hand, Shuimu Yinji was unaware, but Xiao Zhao and Qu Feiyan certainly knew that it was a poison Chu Qinghe had prepared while they were resting at the inn the previous night.

As the internal energy condensed, the sword-shaped internal energy surging out shaved off the branches and leaves from the tree branch that Xiao Zhao had just brought, leaving it smooth. One end of the branch was also sharpened, becoming as sharp as an arrowhead.

Chu Qinghe raised his hand and sensed the wind direction on the mountaintop for a while.

Once he confirmed that the direction was vertical towards Jianxing Peak, Chu Qinghe quickly threw out the medicine bottle in his hand, gathering his inner strength.

In an instant, the medicine bottle shot straight toward Jianxing Peak like an arrow released from a bow.

In just two breaths, it traversed nearly thirty feet.

With its momentum waning, the speed of the medicine bottle that Chu Qinghe had flung out in the air suddenly began to slow down.

"call out!"

Just as the medicine bottle slowed down in mid-air and was about to fall,

The branch that Chu Qinghe had been holding was quickly shot out by him and landed precisely on the medicine bottle.

The arrow, imbued with internal energy, pierced through the ordinary ceramic medicine bottle the moment it touched it.

When the elixir bottle shattered, the powder that had been falling from the sky turned into thick smoke the instant it came into contact with the rain.

Then, in the sight of Qu Feiyan and the others, a more obvious white smoke appeared in the air above the broken medicine bottle.

The moment these white wisps of smoke appeared, they quickly dispersed under the mountain breeze.

Only then did Chu Qinghe nod slightly.

Seeing Chu Qinghe's series of actions, Shuimu Yinji asked with a suspicious look, "Young Master Chu, are you poisoning me?"

Chu Qinghe shook his head and said, "It's not really poison, just some medicinal smoke, nothing more than a precaution."

Having been by Chu Qinghe's side for so long, Qu Feiyan and Xiao Zhao knew perfectly well what Chu Qinghe meant by "unexpected needs".

It was obviously the same as before; they used a hidden poison first.

The so-called hidden poison is the result of using certain drugs beforehand, which will naturally be eliminated from the body after a period of time if not triggered.

However, if other drugs are taken before these toxins are eliminated from the body, they can instantly mix with the body and become poison.

Just like the poisons that Chu Qinghe usually sets up in his home.

If you don't use your internal energy or true qi, you can even take a deep breath in the courtyard without any problems.

If one dares to use their true energy, then the true energy and the medicine in the body will instantly merge and turn into poison.

Upon learning that Chu Qinghe had come this way to drug her beforehand, Qu Feiyan couldn't help but give Chu Qinghe a strange look.

Despite having a Grandmaster-level expert like Shuimu Yinji with her, they still managed to plant poison around the Hengshan Sect beforehand.

This completely leaves no way out or opportunity for others.

After all the medicines were arranged, and seeing that it was getting dark, Chu Qinghe said, "Let's go! Let's find a good spot on the mountain to watch the show."

As soon as he finished speaking, Chu Qinghe gently waved his folding fan and then used his inner strength to teleport down the mountain.

Seeing this, Jellyfish Yin Ji, Xiao Zhao, and Qu Feiyan all followed.

However, just as the three set off, Jellyfish Yin Ji suddenly realized that although she could feel the true energy circulating normally in her body, there was no internal energy fluctuation around her.

Xiao Zhao and Qu Feiyan, who were following behind, also noticed the strangeness on themselves.

Half an hour later, as darkness fell, four figures silently entered Jianxing Peak.

During the process, even the Hengshan Sect disciples on Jianxing Peak did not notice anything unusual.

And so, with Chu Qinghe's help, the four of them moved to the top of Jianxing Peak and landed directly on a lush and thick tree.

Standing on a tree branch that was almost as thick as an adult man's thigh, and feeling that there was still no internal energy fluctuation in her body, Qu Feiyan couldn't help but ask, "Young Master, what is this thing? It can actually conceal the fluctuations of internal energy and true qi."

Upon hearing this, Chu Qinghe said calmly, "The Concealing Powder can isolate the body's internal energy and cultivation fluctuations for half an hour."

"It can also isolate internal energy and cultivation fluctuations?"

Qu Feiyan was stunned when she heard Chu Qinghe's words.

After realizing what was happening, Jellyfish Yin Ji's beautiful eyes flickered slightly.
