374: This sword is no longer usable...

"Whoa~ Exciting!"

Chen Heng looked at his emerald green blood vessels and cheered somewhat hysterically.

"It seems these poisons can only be used as a stimulant for me."

He had to admit, the drought zombie's immunity to all poisons was truly formidable; it even had such strong resistance to the Ancestral Witch of Poison's toxins.

"Or... should I try putting some in my brain?"

Under the influence of the toxins, Chen Heng's desire to court death burned brightly.

With a 'puff', Chen Heng inserted his index finger into his skull, the tip penetrating deep into his cerebral cortex.

"Hoo..." Chen Heng took a deep breath; he was actually a little nervous.

The greenish-purple Yellow Springs poison sprayed from Chen Heng's fingertip, instantly filling his entire cranium.

"Oh~"

Chen Heng blinked, feeling a moment of dizziness, but it quickly stabilized.

Under the influence of the Yellow Springs poison, Chen Heng was now excited to the point of madness, his eyes tinged with a greenish glow.

"?" Bai Jun, who was stewing Wu Ming and Wu Yue, noticed Chen Heng's abnormality and cautiously moved aside, clutching the pot.

"Come on, give me a stab!" Chen Heng walked up to Bai Jun, panting, and patted his skin, which had already begun to change color.

"Are you really okay?" Bai Jun swallowed, feeling that Big Brother Chen's mental state seemed unstable.

"I'm fine, go ahead!" Chen Heng vigorously patted his chest.

He was now very sure that he could no longer feel any pain.

Under the effect of the Yellow Springs poison, Chen Heng's pain nerves were numbed, and his muscle strength was greatly enhanced.

The increase was almost comparable to the doubled strength after reviving from death.

Bai Jun drew his heart-questioning sword and powerfully thrust it towards Chen Heng's chest.

Wu Ming and Wu Yue quickly covered their eyes at the sight; the scene was somewhat frightening.

With a 'puff', Chen Heng, who had removed all his defenses, was run through by the sword, its tip emerging directly from his back.

"Hmm, indeed, I don't feel anything," Chen Heng rubbed his chin, looking at his chest, which had been pierced through, and said.

"Then I can..." Bai Jun was about to say something when he felt a sudden weakness in his body, followed by his vision going black.

"Alright, this Yellow Springs is quite useful. I guess other poisons could also achieve this..."

Pulling the heart-questioning sword from his chest, Chen Heng turned to look at Bai Jun.

Bai Jun was completely green, spewing black blood from his mouth.

"?" Chen Heng looked at himself, then at Bai Jun, who was about to return to the Yellow Springs, and a question mark slowly appeared above his head.

How did this kid get poisoned?

But when Chen Heng saw the heart-questioning sword, which had also turned green, he immediately understood.

After absorbing the Yellow Springs from his body, Chen Heng picked up Bai Jun, who was lying on the ground.

He could feel that he could also control the toxins within Bai Jun's body.

With a thought, a small puff of green smoke spewed from Bai Jun's mouth and nose, drilling into Chen Heng's body and disappearing.

Even so, Bai Jun's condition was still not good; his internal organs even showed signs of melting.

"Luo Shuo!" Chen Heng quickly called out Luo Shuo.

Luo Shuo was quite cooperative; he directly released a cup of black phoenix essence blood and poured it into Bai Jun's mouth.

After fifteen minutes of agonizing screams, Bai Jun, who had nearly died, was finally rescued.

"Big Brother Chen, what kind of poison is this?"

Bai Jun cautiously scooted back, his eyes filled with fear as he looked at Chen Heng.

"I don't think I even touched your blood, so how did I get poisoned out of nowhere?"

"If you ask me, who am I supposed to ask?" Chen Heng naturally wouldn't say it was the Ancestral Witch of Poison's virulent poison; even his heart-questioning sword had been poisoned.

"Uh, don't use your heart-questioning sword for now; it should also be poisoned."

Chen Heng held the limp, green heart-questioning sword in his hand. The originally gleaming heart-questioning sword now dangled in Chen Heng's hand like a dead fish.

"..." Bai Jun looked at the heart-questioning sword in Chen Heng's hand, unsure what to say.

This sword... couldn't be kept.

Finding a rope, Chen Heng hung the heart-questioning sword from the rafters. He and Bai Jun then began to guide Wu Ming and Wu Yue in strengthening their bodies with medicinal baths.

Meanwhile, Luo Shuo sat silently to the side, staring blankly into the air.

The afternoon passed quickly. Dinner tonight was the Dragon Banquet prepared by Chen Heng.

Ever since he killed the evil Dragon, the mountain of Dragon meat still hadn't been finished.

It was a pity the Dragon's head wasn't preserved; otherwise, Chen Heng could have tasted what braised Dragon head was like.

"You two each get one piece. Remember, don't eat too much," Chen Heng instructed seriously after giving Wu Ming and Wu Yue a fist-sized piece of Dragon meat each.

If it weren't for the fact that these two little ones usually consumed a lot and progressed quickly, Chen Heng really wouldn't dare to let them eat evil Dragon meat.

"Yes, Master!" Wu Ming and Wu Yue salivated at the Dragon meat in their bowls, but they didn't dare to pick up their chopsticks until Chen Heng spoke.

"Alright, eat."

Chen Heng nodded in satisfaction, looking at his two obedient disciples, then picked up a piece of evil Dragon meat and began to feast.

"Luo Shuo, come eat." Bai Jun had eaten a couple of bites when he noticed someone was missing from the table. He turned and saw Luo Shuo still sitting there in a daze.

"Hmm? Ah, coming." Luo Shuo nodded absentmindedly and sat at the table, mechanically eating his meal.

"What's wrong? You've seemed listless all day today?"

Chen Heng asked, looking at Luo Shuo, who seemed to have something on his mind.

"Nothing, just a small issue came up on the Eastern Demon Alliance's side." Luo Shuo shook his head, not elaborating.

"How do you know?" Bai Jun was surprised. Luo Shuo had been with them recently, so how did he know about things on the Eastern Demon Alliance's side?

"Don't I have half of the Golden Crow Bloodline in me? My father can contact me."

Luo Shuo sighed, finally unable to hold it in and explained the situation.

"The Divine Demon Domain and the Ferry City below it are finished."

"?" Chen Heng and Bai Jun put down their chopsticks and looked at Luo Shuo with confused eyes.

"I heard from my father that a strange illness called 'Sleeping Sickness' began to break out in Ferry City."

"It has already affected seven Demon Cities, and over ten million Demon Civilians have fallen into a coma and can't wake up."

"When did this happen?" Chen Heng frowned, putting down his bowl and chopsticks.

"My father didn't elaborate, but he said that I shouldn't go back for a while and that staying by your side is the safest."

Luo Shuo scratched his head somewhat painfully; he hated this feeling of powerlessness.

Whether by his father's side or Chen Heng's side, he seemed to be nothing more than a decoration.

He couldn't do anything but watch.

"Want to go take a look?" Chen Heng lightly tapped the table, drawing Luo Shuo's attention to himself.

"Can I?" Luo Shuo looked up, his face full of pleasant surprise.

"Sure. Anyway, after I complete the Fusion of the source fragment, I'll have to go to Qian Fa's place, and then go see your father.

"See if I can conveniently solve whatever 'Sleeping Sickness' you have."
