167: The power of 100,000 poison pills

The Yu Family Ancestor said, "Since we have the Poison Pills, let us set off!"

There were over ten thousand Cultivators present, having been gathered from all three counties: Qingmu County, Shashi County, and Linmu County.

Although most of their strength was only at the Qi Refining stage, 1st level to 3rd level, it was sufficient.

Because the commoners in Qingmu County were all dead, the number of controlled commoners from Shashi County and Linmu County added up to one hundred thousand.

Tang Tian watched with eyes splitting from rage, and the Shashi County Magistrate, who had brought twenty thousand commoners as cannon fodder, was even worse than the Qingmu County Magistrate.

Tang Tian thought to himself, "After this matter is over, I will definitely kill you."

As for why he did not act now, the Yu Family Ancestor was present, and Tang Tian dared not make a move.

Tang Tian rarely lost his composure, but this time he had.

Previously, when tens of thousands of people died, it had nothing to do with Tang Tian, but now that one hundred thousand people were dying right before his eyes, Tang Tian could not remain indifferent.

Yu Ping watched with unbearable sympathy and said to the Yu Family Ancestor, "Old Ancestor, they are just a group of commoners; why not let them go..."

The Yu Family Ancestor said, "Do you think we are the only ones with these commoners? The Murong Family has plenty as well. Before a battle, commoners are always used to exhaust the enemy before we, at the Foundation Establishment Realm, make our move."

"As far as I know, the Murong Family has also coerced some forces to oppose us. Although their commoners do not number one hundred thousand, they still have thirty thousand..."

The words of the Yu Family Ancestor left Yu Ping speechless. Because of the battle between his Yu Family and the Murong Family, their own Family had been reduced to just over one hundred people.

Yu Ping had nothing more to say.

The Yu Family Ancestor also saw Tang Tian's expression of rage, but he did not point it out.

The Yu Family Ancestor thought to himself, "Still too young..."

That Tang Tian associated with Wen Xiu and had such an expression did not surprise the Yu Family Ancestor.

Tang Tian thought to himself, "It is just as the village chief said; the outside world eats people without spitting out the bones."

Tang Tian held a grudge against all the Cultivators from Qingmu County, Shashi County, and Linmu County.

Once he reached the Foundation Establishment Realm, if he killed all the Cultivators from these three counties at the 3rd level of Qi Refining or above, he would not be killing any innocent ones.

The Yu Family Ancestor said, "Let us set off."

All the Cultivators set off in a grand procession. Because they were accompanied by one hundred thousand commoners, it would take six days to reach Shashi County.

During this time, there were people from the Murong Family who came to ambush them, but with the Yu Family Ancestor presiding, they were quickly dealt with.

It was just that many Cultivators on the periphery died, but Tang Tian, Yu Ping, and the others were in the middle of the formation and suffered no losses.

Six days passed quickly, and the outline of Shashi County was already before their eyes. The entire streets of Shashi County were devoid of a single person.

It was deathly silent; everyone had retreated into their own clans, not daring to come out. The Yu Family Ancestor flew ahead to the space above the Murong Family.

Murong Qi said, "Yu Family, do you really want to fight my Murong Family to the death?"

The Yu Family Ancestor said, "How could it be a fight to the death? If you hand over the item, I will naturally withdraw my troops."

Murong Qi said, "Stop spouting nonsense! I don't know what you are talking about!"

Tang Tian sighed; it seemed the Murong Family had chosen to fight to the death.

Now he had to think of a way to protect himself. The battle between Foundation Establishment Families depended on the two Foundation Establishment experts. If the Yu Family Ancestor was defeated, he would have to find a way to run.

If Murong Qi was defeated, then he would go in and loot.

Murong Qi had discovered that the Foundation Establishment Realm meditation cushion could improve his strength quite rapidly. If given three more years, his strength could advance from the 2nd level of Foundation Establishment to the 3rd level.

Unfortunately, the Yu Family Ancestor would not give him the chance. For those at the Foundation Establishment Realm, strength often did not increase for decades, so increasing a level of strength in three years was terrifying.

The Yu Family Ancestor said, "Charge!"

Those commoners charged toward the Murong Family. Although they did not have the Poison Pills refined by the Yu Family Ancestor, they did have other Poison Pills.

Moreover, the Yu Family was not lacking in Medicinal Pills, and they had been fed various boosters.

The commoners on the Yu Family's side charged forward. To prevent the Yu Family Ancestor from playing dirty, Murong Qi also flew back to the Murong Family and said, "Charge."

The weapons in the hands of the Murong Family's commoners were not bad, but compared to the Yu Family's, they were completely inadequate.

Even those Cultivators helping the Murong Family had been coerced by the Murong Family. This was the gap between an Alchemy Family and an Artifact Refining Family!

At the very least, when the Yu Family brought out Medicinal Pills, those families would scramble to come over...

Meanwhile, the group of Yu Family Cultivators stayed far away from the Murong Family.

Once the two sides clashed, it became a river of blood. Because the commoners on both sides were controlled by mental techniques, they were fearless of death.

Tang Tian had long experienced slaughter and was numb to all of this. Yu Ping was already streaming with tears and said, "Yu Tian, do you think doing all this to defeat the Murong Family is worth it?"

Tang Tian said, "Whether it is worth it or not, you know in your heart."

Yu Ping fell silent; after all, both sides were fighting for the Foundation Establishment Weapon.

A Foundation Establishment Weapon was an existence that could easily cause a Foundation Establishment Family to collapse; even in Jinque City, it would stir up a storm of blood.

Even if the Yu Family obtained the Foundation Establishment Realm meditation cushion, as long as this news reached Jinque City, the Yu Family would be annihilated.

If Tang Tian just passed this news to Jinque City, then the Yu Family would be destroyed.

But Tang Tian would not do that, because once Jinque City intervened, not even Qingmu County would remain.

The Yu Family Ancestor said, "It seems the Murong Family really has a foundation."

The surrounding Cultivators saw this scene, and their faces were all grim; it was their first time witnessing the death of one hundred thousand people.

Their hands were trembling with fear, unable to hold their weapons steady; after all, they were not like Tang Tian, who had killed his way out of a mountain of corpses and a sea of blood.

Only the people of the Yu Family, having experienced the great battle with the County Magistrate, were in a slightly better state; everyone else was terrified beyond measure.

Fear spread on the Yu Family's side, though of course, the Murong Family was no better off.

Furthermore, the Murong Family were Body Refining practitioners, and their means of attack were all close-quarters.

Yu Xu said, "My four thousand Cultivators, follow me and charge!"

The Yu Family Ancestor trusted Tang Tian very much, and the number of Cultivators led by Tang Tian was only one thousand fewer than Yu Xu's.

The Murong Family was having an even worse time now.

Once they used up their hidden weapons, they would have to charge out to fight.

The Yu Family Ancestor looked at Tang Tian at this moment.

Tang Tian nodded and said, "Follow me and charge!"

He and Yu Ping rushed out. As for the earlier Poison Pills, they had long been distributed, three per person.

The Cultivators from both sides charged out directly, the scene before them a river of blood.

The Murong Family actually did not want to charge out to fight the Yu Family, but they had no choice; they had no Talismans and could not hit from that far away.

They could have kept the Yu Family from daring to enter if the Murong Family had been Talisman practitioners like the Liu Family.

The Yu Family Ancestor had to consider obtaining support from a Family in Jinque City before daring to make a move against the Murong Family.

After all, the Yu Family Ancestor was still afraid of the depletion from last time at the Liu Family.

Tang Tian threw out the Poison Pills in his hand; a single Poison Pill caused ten Murong Family members to be reduced to bones instantly. This Poison Pill was truly impressive.

One hundred thousand Poison Pills were enough to turn the Murong Family into a Forbidden Ground.

However, not many people from the Murong Family came out. First, they sent out the three thousand Cultivators they had coerced; not a single person from the Murong Family itself came out...
