CHAPTER 269: 【136】QI AND BLOOD CONDENSING PILL, 3-CUN GANG QI_4

Forcing Qiao Qichong to give up his inner strength is no different from killing him. Qiao Qichong’s eyes were bloodshot, and losing the use of his legs hadn’t made him as desperate as he was at this moment.

Wang Longhu completely ignored his curses, grabbing Qiao Qichong and leaping out of the residential building, off to find Fifth Master.

Now Qiao Qichong was nothing but a useless man who couldn’t even defeat an ordinary person, so Wang Longhu didn’t worry about him causing any trouble.

...

"Damn it! This old undead mad dog!"

A figure crashed through the third-floor window, landing steadily on the ground.

Before he could unleash a torrent of curses, Fifth Master followed him by jumping out of the third floor, claws fiercely aiming for the opponent’s chest.

Chen Chongyue’s anger flared, his skin instantly tensed, and he struck out with both palms in fury, clashing hard against Fifth Master’s claws.

"Mr. Chuanben! You better give it your all! If I die, you’re not going to fare any better!" Chen Chongyue shouted angrily.

"The Toad Horizontal Training Cover, truly a good disciple of the Fourth. He’s still bold enough to take on disciples despite betraying his master and ancestors. Yet, he doesn’t fear his disciples following his footsteps, ending up with no protection in their old age."

Fifth Master let out a sinister laugh, his arms turning purple with veins popping up, unleashing the Dark Force at full strength.

Although Fifth Master was merely a Dark Force Martial Artist, his power should never be underestimated, lest you find yourself at a disadvantage.

Poison has always been an unavoidable and terrifying means of attack throughout human history.

The most formidable aspect of the Five Poison Sect doesn’t lie in its centipede stomping legs, black scorpion long fists, or the Toad Horizontal Training Cover, but in its sect treasure, "Five Poison Inner Power."

Besides scratching and tearing to infect wounds, Fifth Master can inject poison into his targets along with Dark Force, the Five Poison Sect’s most dangerous ability.

It was precisely because of this that Qiao Qichong and three others harbored jealousy and hatred when their master didn’t pass on the Five Poison Inner Power to them, but only to Fifth Master, leading them to cruelly murder their benevolent teacher.

"Chen Chongyue, you didn’t mention in your intel about the presence of this old man in the mission."

A figure struggled to jump down from the third floor, landing painfully on the grass, clutching his chest and howling in agony, revealing a ten-centimeter-long scratch on his chest.

At this moment, Xiaogong Chuanben’s entire face took on a light purple hue as the poison reached his brain, bringing him close to death.

"Old man, hand over the antidote, and I’ll leave immediately!" Xiaogong Chuanben shouted anxiously.

He and Chen Chongyue were jointly responsible for inspecting Unit 10. When the news of Wang Longhu appearing in Unit 5 was confirmed, the two visibly lowered their guard.

Who would have expected Fifth Master to burst out from nowhere, and Xiaogong Chuanben couldn’t evade quickly enough, allowing Fifth Master to scratch a wound on his chest.

Both Xiaogong Chuanben and Chen Chongyue were Dark Force Martial Artists. If Fifth Master wanted to battle them head-on simultaneously, his body’s age would indeed be a disadvantage, ensuring his defeat.

But luckily, after Xiaogong Chuanben was poisoned, he was immediately rendered useless, giving Fifth Master just enough strength to fight Chen Chongyue to a standstill.

Unless Fifth Master expended all his energy first, the power of both sides would be evenly matched in a true combat.

Seizing the moment as Fifth Master caught his breath, Chen Chongyue suddenly punched him in the chest.

"Puh!"

Fifth Master spat out a mouthful of stagnant blood, splattering all over Chen Chongyue’s face.

In the end, fists fear youth. As Ma Bomeng’s prized disciple, Chen Chongyue’s prowess was undoubtedly outstanding. In combat against Fifth Master, he gained no advantage after several moves.

And Chen Chongyue’s Horizontal Training Cover was exceptionally robust, which made it difficult for Fifth Master’s claw techniques to penetrate his skin.

Instead, Fifth Master’s internal energies were thrown into chaos, Qi and Blood surged to his throat, prompting him to uncontrollably regurgitate.

Chen Chongyue sneered, but in the next instant, he realized something was wrong. The blood splashed on his face by Fifth Master was uncomfortably hot, almost corrosive, causing his face to itch and tingle, making him want to scratch away the skin to alleviate the itch.

"Ah!!!" Chen Chongyue quickly withdrew his hand, touching his face while crying out miserably.

"Originally, I intended to use this move to take those beasts of yours. Now it’s you who gets to see its power." Fifth Master weakly chuckled.

Over the years, Fifth Master had tirelessly pondered ways to exact revenge. Though possessing the Five Poison Inner Power, he couldn’t guarantee he’d be able to end the lives of his junior disciples before his own life concluded.

Thus, he nurtured a mouthful of toxic blood that, once expelled, could poison the target.

Unfortunately, Chen Chongyue was the guinea pig for Fifth Master’s move, suffering the toxic blood which had been nurtured for decades, something far from pleasant.

"Ah!!! My eyes!!"

Not only did Chen Chongyue’s face fall victim to the poisoned blood, but a few drops also found their way into his eyes, causing piercing pain intense enough to surpass any burning irritation from chili water or sand by dozens of times.

Fifth Master stepped forward, grasped his throat with one hand, and exerted tremendous force to finish Chen Chongyue’s life, sparing him from agony.

"Please, I’m begging you, give me the antidote, please..."

Beside him, kneeling on the ground, Xiaogong Chuanben could no longer hold on, his face purple, lips black, foaming at the mouth, and muttered weakly.

His pleading eyes fixed upon Fifth Master, filled with a desperate hope for survival.

"You little brat, you’re no better than Ma Bomeng’s disciple. Since you chose to come here today to help the Four Poison Hall against us, you deserve death, it’s deserved." Fifth Master snorted coldly, then turned and departed, leaving Xiaogong Chuanben to meet his fate alone.
