Martial Research Master

Chapter 384



384 PLANS OF RETURN

“Well, our friend back there is quite insidious isn’t he.” Li Meng said.

“He is. He even went as far as to mix a very deadly yet undetectable poison into your body.” The Keeper said. “I almost didn’t detect it but fortunately, the artifact is directly merged into your body. It is not possible to pass something in without it being detected by it. Even then, it is extremely rare. If we didn’t possess a book of thousands of poisons, and you didn’t have the hundred poison body, it would be extremely hard to detect.”

“Could I use this in my poison training?” Li Meng asked.

“You should be able to. If I am not wrong, you might even be able to upgrade your poison body to the next level. Do you want to do it?” The Keeper asked.

“Why not? It is rare to find such a poison. It is tailor-made to be used in my training. I am confident enough to upgrade my poison body to Thousand poison body arts with its help. What do you think?”

“You should start then.”

“Bring out all the poison we have managed to harvest until today and prepare a medicine pool.” The Keeper performed the process exactly as Li Meng wished. The medicine pool was composed of king-level herbs with some emperor-level herbs mixed in to improve vitality and the poison herbs were concentrated into powerful potions.

Training in the thousands of poison arts was extremely difficult. It was one of the rare arts in which Li Meng saw little progress. He had extensively researched many poison records in the Pill hall and Pill valley to finally understand the entire procedure defined within the arts. Only after he managed to completely decrypt it and formulate a proper way of training, did Li Meng begin to gather as many poisonous herbs as he could. He even bought poison pills, decrypted the recipe, and formulated his version, making them way more powerful.

“How much volume would be required?” Li Meng asked.

.....

“If I am not wrong, the way to train the thousand poison body is by coagulating your body’s poisonous nature into a Qi center that will hold a new kind of energy. It is termed as life-poison power. It is similar to the various types of Qi you practice, but its source is poison. When you obtained Hundred-posion body, you were able to utilize poison as a nutrient for your body.”

“Once you gain the thousand poison body, all the poison you ingest will be turned into life-poison power. Meng Shi has unknowingly given you an extremely valuable gift. The poison is so potent that it qualifies to become the catalyst for the creation of thousands of poison bodies.” The Keeper said.

“We will be sure to thank him by taking his life and making it so painful that death will seem like a sweet dream.”

“The force behind him is not to be scoffed at.”

“You don’t need to worry. I am quite a patient man. Why would I attack someone unless it is the optimum set-up?”

” You will attack in the Royal Road.”

“Well, he deserves a bit more time in the world as a gift for providing me with this incredible gift.”

Li Meng sat down and began ingesting poison pills and potions. The poison began to affect his vitality. His hundred poison body along with the medical pool began to revitalize him. The two forces began to clash, and a small ball of energy began to coagulate.

“Concentrate on that energy. It will be the future container for the life-poison energy.” The Keeper notified.

Li Meng did as he was advised and began to divert more and more energy into the coagulated ball. The process continued just like the one where he opened up his accupoints. It slowly began to solidify, until it was able to absorb energy automatically. The more poison Li Meng ingested, the more energy was being siphoned into the ball.

1 day later-

Li Meng sat in the middle of his room. He was stimulating the newly acquired life-poison energy from the ball. A thin barrier of greenish energy covered his entire body and danced on top of it. Leon decided to give it a try. He touches a nearby plant without even using any kind of attacking art. The plant was reduced to nothingness just by its touch.

“How does the thousand-poison body and life-poison energy feel?” The Keeper asked

“Extremely powerful and sinister at the same time. I never expected it to be so powerful. For an unorthodox art, it is something that can rival Qi Emperor given we have enough poison at our hand. I just added an extremely powerful weapon to my arsenal.” Li Meng was quite impressed after experiencing its effect.

“What do you have in mind for the next venture?” The keeper asked.

” I need to go to hell to formulate the laws of the hell world.”

“Could you send a single avatar or more?” The Keeper asked.”

“One would suffice. It would be best if we could meet with the man from the Void-walker clan again. I need to learn so much from him.” Li Meng said.

“That guy was not a minor entity. I could even grasp the limit of his power, yet all I could say is that he far surpasses the limits of this world. Don’t take him lightly boy. Some things are far out of your reach even in this world. The world beyond this one is so vast, your mind wouldn’t be able to comprehend it.” The Keeper warned.

“That man gave me the Void-world tome for a reason. I am guessing that he took some interest in my ability. I would like to test my luck once again. Also, the main objective of the visit is not him. It is to go to hell and formulate laws from there.” Li Meng said.

“Exactly, and he also said that you need to train in the first section before you could return. As far as I know, you are still not capable enough to qualify.”

“So you suggest I don’t even try.” Li Meng asked.

“I think it is a waste of time. You should concentrate on training first. You could access hell world with the help of the Hell-forge sutra. Use it to access hell and formulate its laws.”

.......

“You want to take a break before trying to refine your body.” The old man said in a skeptical voice. Li meng notified him that he had to undergo minor seclusive cultivation before he could start refining his body.

“Yes. There are avenues I have to pursue before refining my law body.” Li Meng said.

“Is that important?” The old man asked.

“It is.” Li Meng tried to avoid explaining.

” Does it relate to body cultivation?” The old man asked. Leon’s expression changed. He never expected the old man to ask him this question. The Keeper was right. The old man was also a body cultivator.

“Guess I hit the mark.” The old man said while chuckling. Little did he know that the one chuckling here was Li Meng. He didn’t think fate would land a tailor-made explanation in his lap.

“It does, master.” Li Meng replied.

“Go on. But you will break through the Qi Emperor realm before the Royal road. I would like for you to even promote your cultivation by one or more levels. If you don’t exit at the proper time I will forcefully kick you out.” The old man warned.

‘I will come back right on time master.” Li Meng left the old man’s abode and went into seclusion within his house
