"Pfft!" With another flick of his finger, several more maids were beheaded and fell to the ground.
The remaining maids were taken aback, clasped their hands together, and disappeared.
“You cannot hide from me.” Shi Jing’s eyes flashed with golden light as he spotted her. He slightly bent his fingers, and his true energy quickly condensed into blades of energy. With a sudden snap, the blades of energy slashed in several directions.
"Aaaaaah!!" Screams rang out one after another as these people appeared, each with an air knife stuck in their throat, lying motionless on the ground.
"This woman in red can actually see through invisibility."
"Could it be that they are practicing some kind of technique called the Eye of Truth?" This scene caused everyone's faces to change color.
"I'll wipe you out!" Seeing her subordinates wiped out in an instant, the "First Lady" was furious. With a wave of her hand, countless chrysanthemums appeared and flew over in a straight line.
"Boom." Shi Jing threw a punch, and several chrysanthemums were immediately shattered. Clusters of yellow energy surged out, merged together, and enveloped her.
"Sizzle!!" The air currents clung to the golden light, causing it to dim and shorten instantly.
"Such potent toxicity! It can actually corrode my protective golden aura!" Shi Jing was taken aback upon witnessing this.
"Girl, you've been tricked!"
"Taste the flavor of our Poison Valley's Nine Chrysanthemums in a Row!"
"Even though you're powerful, you can't withstand the corrosive effects of the poisonous chrysanthemum!"
"In a few breaths, it will turn into a mass of pus and blood!!" The "First Lady" pointed her finger, and a burst of energy passed through the remaining chrysanthemums. All the chrysanthemums burst open, turning into wisps of air that enveloped the stone scene.
With his hands clasped together, a wisp of yellow gas shot out from the top of his head, transforming into nine chrysanthemums the size of pot lids. Nine streams of gas flowed out of the chrysanthemums and poured into the poisonous gas enveloping the stone landscape. The poisonous gas began to churn and swirl like boiling water.
"Sizzle! Sizzle! Sizzle!!" The toxicity increased exponentially, the corrosion rate accelerated, and the golden light rapidly shortened, retreating towards the body surface.
Shi Jing let out a low shout, and his internal energy circulated rapidly. The golden light surged again, but in an instant, much of it was corroded and suppressed.
Soon, she was completely enveloped by the poisonous fog and could no longer be seen.
"Are these chrysanthemums from your Poison Valley?" Zhong Ling walked over and asked.
"Of course, these chrysanthemums were cultivated by our master using 108 poisonous insects mixed with the blood of humans and animals!"
"It only matures once every ten years!"
"Its toxicity is unparalleled!"
"Although she is quite formidable, she is doomed to die when she encounters me, the First Lady!" the First Lady sneered.
"Although the toxicity of your chrysanthemum is a bit strong, it's not incurable!"
“I’ll undo it now.” Zhong Ling flipped her wrist, and a golden lotus flower appeared.
With a sudden throw, the golden lotus disappeared into the poisonous mist.
"Whoosh." The next moment, a suction force emanated from the golden lotus, drawing in all the nearby poisonous gas.
As the body continues to absorb the toxic gas, the amount of gas decreases and the concentration of toxic gas diminishes.
A faint black mist appeared on the lotus petals, obscuring their true color.
"Your lotus flower is quite strange; it can actually absorb the poison of chrysanthemums on its own?" Upon witnessing this, the "First Lady" was immediately taken aback.
"Is it strange?" Zhong Ling sneered.
"Several years ago, I met a woman from Poison Valley who could also cast this poison."
"Because it is extremely poisonous, I became somewhat interested in it!"
"After searching through all the major pharmacopoeias, I finally found a way to detoxify!"
"I used snow lotus as a base, watered it with sweet dew, and mixed it with a variety of rare detoxifying herbs as fertilizer."
"And let them absorb the sun's essence every day to meet their needs for rapid growth."
"After countless experiments, we finally cultivated the Golden Lotus that can cure poison."
“With it here, your chrysanthemum poison won’t hurt anyone!” Zhong Ling said.
"No wonder it absorbed the chrysanthemum poison; it was deliberately cultivated by you to deal with us!" Upon hearing this, the "First Lady" finally understood.
So, you can't be arrogant today.
"He's going to die!" Zhong Ling pointed her finger, and a wisp of green energy entered the golden lotus. The golden lotus absorbed the energy at an accelerated rate, and in a short while, the poisonous gas enveloping Shi Jing was completely absorbed.
The aura emanating from the nine chrysanthemums atop the head of the "Husband and Wife" was also drawn to it and quickly absorbed.
"If this continues, I'll be completely drained!" The poisonous gas emanating from the chrysanthemum was absorbed by the golden lotus, which in turn absorbed her internal energy to convert the poisonous gas. After a while, she also began to feel overwhelmed.
"Thank you, Senior Sister!" Shi Jing breathed a sigh of relief and thanked Zhong Ling.
"Don't mention it!"
"Let's do it!" Zhong Ling said.
"Hmm." Shi Jing swayed and appeared in front of the "First Lady" in the next moment.
The five fingers of the halberd are spread wide, descending upon the head.
The "First Lady" hurriedly tried to dodge, but her body seemed to be frozen in place, unable to move at all.
"A forbidden technique." She was shocked when she saw a huge rune faintly appearing on the ground.
"Boom!" Shi Jing's palm slammed down, and she was smashed into a pulp, stuck to the ground.
"Kill!" The three elders exchanged a glance and rushed towards Shi Jing from three directions.
"Those three old bastards, they ambushed my junior sister, how shameless!" Zhong Ling's face darkened, and with a flick of her finger, the lotus flower floating in the air suddenly flew over.
"Boom!" The next moment, it suddenly exploded, and poisonous mist immediately burst out, enveloping the three of them.
"This is chrysanthemum poison! Quickly use your protective inner energy to resist it!" The three elders were shocked and unleashed their inner energy to resist the poison.
At the same time, he pushed off with both feet and rose into the air, trying to escape the poisonous fog.
"Boom." Just as the poisonous gas burst out, a small, white hand suddenly appeared and slammed down.
The Second Elder's head was immediately smashed open and slammed to the ground, turning into a mass of pus and blood in a matter of moments.
"Second brother!!" The Third Elder and the Fourth Elder were shocked to see this. A gust of wind sounded above their heads, and the little hand reappeared and covered them.
In their haste, they threw punches to defend themselves, but the small hand struck, shattering their fists, which then fell to the ground!
After crashing to the ground, they were quickly enveloped in poisonous mist, leaving them no choice but to use their powers to defend themselves.
"Swoosh." At this moment, the old swordsman who had been standing silently by the pillar moved, his body transforming into a sharp sword as he thrust towards Shi Jing.
“Miss Shi, please step aside, I will deal with him.” With a flick of his sleeve, Xu Tuo revealed a huge alms bowl.
It blocked the incoming sword with a crisp sound.
