Chapter 751 Seven Poisons Sacred Grass
Lin Mengya looked away composedly, thinking the members of the Candle Dragon Cult really liked playing this kind of trick.
She did not know what they were up to although they had brought her here.
After packing up her luggage, Lin Mengya followed Canying, who was reluctant, to the depths of the cave.
She could not see it clearly from outside. It was not until she got into the cave that she realized that there was actually an altogether different world inside the seemingly ordinary cave.
On the innermost mountain wall was a narrow tunnel only allowing one person to pass through.
Canying walked in the front, followed by the mysterious copper-masked man, Lin Mengya and the last man bringing up the rear.
The four of them seemed to have crowded the tunnel.
As they moved forward, Lin Mengya sensed the Shen Nung system’s radar capable of automatically detecting poisons began to operate.
The cave seemed to be ordinary, but contained poisons one stronger than another.
Nevertheless, she didn’t find any of them after looking around.
So she believed they were likely to be behind the stone wall.
If that was the case, it was highly possible that there was an open space of poisonous plants outside this tunnel.
With such a spectacle on the hillside, the Qijue Peak was truly remarkable.
After they walked for a long while, a pungent smell mixed with a strange smell gradually came into Lin Mengya’s nose.
It should be the unique smell of the hot spring, but that smell…
Lin Mengya carefully identified it and found that the poisons inside were more various than she expected.
Moreover, there were indeed many kinds of snake venom inside. This explained why the Seven Poisons Sacred Grass grew in this place. These kinds of poisons could definitely breed the most mature Seven Poisons Sacred Grass.
She had no idea what created such a spectacle here, but now, it was very likely to save her life.
“Tsk, what a pity.” Canying, who led the team, suddenly let out a cry of surprise.
Lin Mengya’s heart skipped a beat as she followed them out of the tunnel.
She, who had seen a wealth of strange things, was involuntarily shocked by the scene in front of her.
There was an open space outside as she guessed.
Nevertheless, various poisons meandered in the open space, looking like an enormous snake lying on the hillside from a distance!
Standing at the entrance of the tunnel, Lin Mengya couldn’t help rubbing her eyes.
At this moment, the gentle light shone through the enormous peak, illuminating everything on the hillside.
They were at the tail of the giant snake that should be shaped by someone on purpose, as the snake was surrounded by solid rocks covered with few plants.
The snake was simply too spectacular.
Taking a quick glance, she found a hundred or so kinds of poisonous plants.
They were of various colors and intertwined, looking more like a long snake.
Lin Mengya rubbed her forehead, wondering how much painstaking effort it took to create such a spectacle.
From the perspective of an expert in poison, it was indeed a pity that these poisonous plants could not be gathered and used.
“It’s really ingenious. Canying, why don’t you follow me to have a look since you come with an intention? The hot spring, where the Seven Poisons Sacred Grass grows, seems to be located at the snake head. Nevertheless, I’m afraid you will be poisoned to death before you go there,” Lin Mengya said.
Poisonous plants, especially those growing in clusters, were mostly poisonous, even including their pollen.
The huge snake’s body was composed of layers of poisonous plants. At the highest point, where the snake’s head was, they could faintly see pale purple fog.
It appeared to be thin, but it could kill ordinary people a few minutes after they smelled it.
For this reason, she was the only person present who was not afraid of the frog and capable of getting to the hot spring smoothly.
“Humph, I have no time to join you in seeking your doom. You only have three days. After three days, no matter you are dead or alive, I will go down the mountain with the copper slaves. When the time comes, no one will know you are here and come back to save you,” Canying, who apparently had enough of Lin Mengya, warned her in a cynical tone, and then retreated through the tunnel with his men.
Finally, Lin Mengya was left here alone.
She took a deep breath. The slightly poisonous pollen in the air seemed to be able to temporarily suppress the mutated poison in her body.
Because she was in the open space on the hillside, she had taken off her fur cloak.
Although she was clad in an unlined garment, she did not feel cold here.
Nevertheless, ordinary people would rather stay outside to suffer from cold than come to this place, where there was even poisonous pollen in the air, to warm up.
The giant snake extended upward. Lin Mengya walked step by step towards the snake’s head.
As she got close to the snake’s head, the air became increasingly humid with increasingly strong toxicity.
At first, she was able to adapt to it, but later, even she felt a little dizzy.
Fortunately, her good adaptability or the poison in her body stronger than any of these poisons enabled her to walk up to the pool at the snake head without losing her consciousness.
“Is this the Seven Poisons Sacred Grass?” Standing beside the pool about the width of a person, Lin Mengya looked curiously at a poisonous grass growing in a place, which should be the snake tongue, at the top of the pool, and murmured to herself.
The hot spring pool in the shape of a snake’s head was filled with transparent purple venom whose dark color seemed to be strangely tempting.
Compared with the gorgeous color of the venom in the pool, the white grass on the top seemed too ordinary.
Lin Mengya bypassed the pool and took a closer look at the Seven Poisons Scared Grass.
It was rumored that the Seven Poisons Sacred Grass could neutralize all kinds of poisons, but it was also the top strange poison in the world.
She had seen plenty of poisonous grasses. The more remarkable color and shape they had, the more poisonous they were.
However, this was the first time she had seen such a poisonous grass as white as made of jade in her life.
It just looked like an ordinary grass with only seven leaves of exactly the same size.
This was the sign that the Seven Poisons Sacred Grass had been completely mature. If one of the seven leaves was not of the same size, the grass was not mature enough to be used.
Most shocking of all was the Seven Poisons Sacred Grass’s white color.
It was as transparent white as snow or high-quality white jade.
Reaching out her hand, Lin Mengya couldn’t help touching its white and tender leaves, but she didn’t expect that one of them cut her finger in an instant.
A drop of dark red blood slid down the leaf.
But before it reached the rhizome, it was completely absorbed by the leaf.
Withdrawing her hand, Lin Mengya was involuntarily amazed at this.
The pure white grass, which could absorb her blood without being stained, was indeed a rare treasure around the world.
Lin Mengya, who seemed to be done with appreciating the Seven Poisons Sacred Grass, glanced at the pool of deep purple venom and sighed with a bitter smile.
Unexpectedly, she eventually chose the riskiest method with the highest rate of success.
There was no one around. She knew that no one would risk their lives to peep at her.
She closed her eyes, gritted her teeth, reached out to quickly undress herself.
The sounds caused by her were exceptionally clear in the quiet open space on the hillside.
Soon, Lin Mengya was only dressed in two pieces of underwear and a top.
In order to use the Seven Poisons Sacred Grass to neutralize the poison in her body, she had to absorb the same toxicity as that of the Seven Poisons Sacred Grass.
The pool of purple liquid, which contained a mixture of various snake venom and other poisons, in front of her presumably had contributed a lot to the vigorous growth of the grass.
She scooped up some of the liquid. Although she was unaware of what exactly the liquid contained, she felt a sense of resistance when toughing the liquid as sticky as blood.
She swallowed her saliva time and again. If she got into the pool, she would still have a chance to survive. But if she didn’t, she would probably die soon.
She drew the dagger she had hidden in her boot and cut her wrist softly with a frown.
Her teacher had told her that if she wanted the venom here to quickly integrate with her blood, the best way was to bathe in the venom with wounds.
It was a pity that she could not endure pain, otherwise, she should have cut her arms and legs.
After her dark red blood dripped in the pool, it integrated with the purple venom in an instant.
Lin Mengya could see that there was no point in hesitating any longer.
She suddenly took off her clothes, stretched out a white foot, closed her eyes, and walked into the pool.
She felt warm and a little bit of tingling.
Lin Mengya had tried many times to imagine what it felt like to bathe in the pool, but she had never expected that she felt a little comfortable instead of feeling a sharp pain.
Ignoring the sharp pain in her injured wrist she felt occasionally, she felt like she was bathing in a real hot spring.
She opened her eyes a little. If there were a mirror in front of her, she would be surprised to find a flash of purple sparkle in her pure black pupils.
Nevertheless, the sparkle disappeared in a flash and her eyes returned to pure black.
What strange liquid. Lin Mengya scooped up a handful of water, only to find that although the venom was a little sticky, it did not stay on her hand at all.
It was like clear water, untainted by even a speck of dust.
