C418 Captured
Ye Xuan turned his head in shock, realizing that his wrist had been thrown to the side by the red-faced old man, and that Heaven & Earth Ring was in his hands.
"The thing, the thing?" The red-faced old man said with a hoarse voice.
Ye Xuan understood that he was looking for those poisonous grasses.
But, those poisonous grasses had all been devoured by him. The Netherworld Udumbara Grass that he did not devour was also in his Devouring Space. This Heaven & Earth Ring was something he used to act, no, act.
"Those poisonous plants, they were all eaten by this junior." Ye Xuan cut a long story short, and first threw out a suspense.
Eat it!
For a single person to eat so many poisonous grasses without dying was enough to cause the red-faced old man to feel astonished. Only by doing so would he have a chance of surviving.
"Eat it?"
The red-faced old man was surprised upon hearing this. Amongst the poisonous grasses, there were many that he had to carefully pick, but they were eaten by Ye Xuan. How was this possible?
More importantly, how could a large area of poison flowerbeds be eaten?
At this moment, the red-faced old man suddenly noticed that Ye Xuan's wrist had started to grow longer and had recovered to its original state in a short while.
This scene caused him to be dumbstruck.
"What the hell are you?" The red-faced old man asked in shock.
It was impossible for a human to be reborn with a broken arm. However, if he had seen it with his own eyes, he would inevitably suspect if Ye Xuan was even a human.
"Junior is a human, but I once consumed a Treasures, that's why I am immune to poisons, and have the ability to regrow a severed arm." Ye Xuan quickly explained.
"Immune to poison? Reborn from a broken arm?"
The red-faced old man frowned slightly. He indeed did not sense that Ye Xuan had other Heaven & Earth Ring s on him, thus after a moment of thought, he asked: "You relied on eating poisonous herbs to cultivate?"
"No, there is something special about this junior's body. If I don't eat the poisonous plants, my body might explode and die," Ye Xuan casually made up a reason. He ate all the poisonous plants because he was forced to.
However, his expression was a bit strange. After thinking for a moment, he tossed Ye Xuan a poison and said: "Eat him in front of me, if you're lying to me ?"
He did not continue, because he felt that if Ye Xuan was lying to him, he would also be poisoned to death by this poisonous plant.
Ye Xuan caught the poison grass and discovered that he had just consumed this herb before. However, he had never eaten it before.
"Dammit, I'm doomed. I can only trust the Tree of Life once."
Ye Xuan clenched his teeth, took a bite of this poisonous grass's leaf and swallowed it.
Although he could take the leaf into the Devouring Space, the old man in front of him was at the third level of Qi driven. If he swallowed it with his mouth, he would be seen through, and he would be dead for sure.
Therefore, he could only give it his all once!
He chewed on the leaves of the poisonous plant for a while, then swallowed them into his stomach. The next moment, he heard the voice of the System Prompt Tone.
"Ding! Host, you have obtained this poison for free!"
"Hu!"
After hearing the notification sound, Ye Xuan heaved a sigh of relief. It seemed that the Sacred Tree of Life's bloodline was still very powerful.
"Continue!"
At this time, the red-faced old man coldly said.
Ye Xuan was relieved now, and swallowed the bitter poison grass into his stomach.
The red-faced old man frowned as he watched Liu Ming. He waited for about ten breaths of time before an astonished expression appeared on his face.
"Are you really immune to poisons?" the red-faced old man asked, aghast.
"Absolutely, but for those who are unfamiliar with it or have strong toxins, I am not able to handle it." Ye Xuan nodded.
The red-faced elder looked at him doubtfully and asked, "Can you tell me the toxicity of that stalk of grass just now?"
Hearing that, Ye Xuan was startled, then said: "When I swallowed it, my stomach was burning, I felt like it was going to explode. After three breaths, I felt a bit nauseous, my stomach seemed to be moving, and my head is swelling up."
This answer made the red-faced old man flabbergasted once again, and he said: "That is Scorching Sun Grass, if anyone below Qi driven level 2 were to accidentally take a leaf, they would be burnt to ashes from within their body within three breaths of time."
"Damn!"
After Ye Xuan heard the explanation, he was half scared to death.
Actually, the symptoms that he did not mention were the symptoms listed by the Devouring System and read out by himself.
People below two hundred dragons would turn into ashes within three breaths of time if they mistook one leaf for one leaf, but he had instead swallowed the entire stalk of Scorching Sun Grass.
"Try this again." The red-faced elder took out yet another poisonous weed.
"The heck, are you using me to test for poison?"
Ye Xuan helplessly took it. This time, he first carefully bit off a little of the poisonous grass's leaf and swallowed it. Only after hearing about the System Prompt Tone s did he finally eat the whole poisonous grass.
"It is indeed immune to poisons." The red-faced old man narrowed his eyes, and the gaze he looked at Ye Xuan with became somewhat strange as well.
"Senior, this junior accidentally entered this place and committed a grave mistake. I hope senior will forgive me for that. I will compensate you with these poisonous plants."
Ye Xuan said.
"Hmph, you dare to say something like that? Do you know how much this poison garden is worth? " The red-faced elder snorted coldly.
Ye Xuan did not speak.
This poison garden had allowed him to break through from 150 Dragons to 160 Dragons, and its value was enormous. If he were to trade it for cultivation resources, then he was afraid that 150 Dragons would be able to break through to 170 Dragons, or even 190 Dragons.
Ye Xuan's Devouring System required far more resources to cultivate compared to people of the same level. The benefit of him doing this was saving a large amount of time.
Therefore, Ye Xuan couldn't afford it!
At this time, the red-faced old man snorted: "You swallowed my entire flower bed so it should have been a capital offense, but I find you pleasing to the eye. As long as you are willing to help me, I will spare your life."
Hearing that there was a way out, Ye Xuan anxiously asked: What does senior want me to do?
The red-faced old man answered without even thinking, "I have a lot of unknown poisons. I want you to test the toxins for me. As long as you can do it well, I will let you leave one day."
"This ?"
Ye Xuan paused for a moment, his eyebrows knitted tightly.
The red-faced old man didn't specify the time, which meant that he had to look at the red-faced old man's complexion. If the red-faced old man did not let him go, then he would be imprisoned forever.
However, this did not mean that there was no turning back, because the red-faced old man did not know that he had Devouring System. As long as he was hiding the poison, piling it up, and swallowing it all together, he would be able to use the Beast Master Violent when his power skyrocketed, and say that he couldn't escape.
"Alright, I agree." Ye Xuan nodded.1
This time, he was the one who was courting death and had been caught red-handed, so he had no other choice. Fortunately, this red-faced old man seemed somewhat rational, otherwise he would have already gone all out to kill him.
