"Wow!"
The white-haired Old Man's dozens of acupuncture points suddenly exploded all over his body.
"Wow!"
The white-haired Old Man's body crashed down. He died bleeding from his seven orifices.
"Ding dong! Congratulations, Player Zhang Hao, for killing Bai Tiande. Experience points 100, True Qi 10, Frenzy Energy 10."
"Ding dong! Congratulations, Player Zhang Hao, for obtaining one Iijima Ai inflatable doll." The System's notification sounded.
Zhang Hao was speechless. This System, what the heck, even without resources, does it have to be this dirty? Even if you're giving me one, give me Ozawa Maria or Matsushima Kaede! This Iijima Ai isn't something this Young Master particularly likes. Forget it, seeing as this Young Master hasn't solved the director problem yet, I won't argue with you.
"You... you killed the Seventh Elder?" Bai Jietao was instantly dumbfounded, looking at Zhang Hao with extreme fear.
The Seventh Elder was a Half-Step Martial Ancestor! An Elder who was very likely to break through to Martial Grandmaster within ten years actually died like this at the hands of this Wu Ming kid.
"This Young Master said it before, killing someone only requires one punch. You just didn't believe it, do you believe it now?" Zhang Hao said to Bai Jietao with a half-smile.
After speaking, Zhang Hao said lightly to Bai Jietao, "Scram, otherwise, this Young Master will also let you taste my punch."
Bai Jietao was instantly extremely terrified. Letting him taste that punch was worse than killing him; a Half-Step Martial Ancestor couldn't even withstand one punch, let alone him, who was only a Martial King initial stage.
Bai Jietao left scrambling. Of course, Bai Jietao didn't give up just like that. He couldn't do anything to Zhang Hao, but that didn't mean the Bai Family couldn't. After all, the Bai Family still had stronger Martial Warriors.
"Idol, you actually killed a Half-Step Martial Ancestor with one punch, oh my god, are you an immortal?" Ye Zitong looked at Zhang Hao somewhat infatuatedly.
Zhang Hao lowered his head and pretended to be shy, saying, "Looking at me like that, people will get shy."
Ye Zitong scoffed, saying, "I'd be crazy to believe you. Alright, let's go. Let's continue heading to Poison Demon Valley."
Zhang Hao suddenly remembered something and looked at Ye Zitong, saying, "Ye Zitong, why do you want to go to Poison Demon Valley so much?"
Ye Zitong said longingly, "Western Ridge Kingdom is big, but after so many years, I've already traveled everywhere. The world is so big, I want to see the outside world. I heard the outside world is countless times bigger than Western Ridge Kingdom. Don't you?"
Zhang Hao recalled the legend of Western Ridge Kingdom. Ten thousand years ago, two gods in the eyes of the world fought a great battle in Western Ridge Kingdom. In the end, one of the gods, to protect Western Ridge Kingdom from being destroyed, used supreme power to seal Western Ridge Kingdom, thus preserving it. But ultimately, that god was severely wounded and also fell.
Although Western Ridge Kingdom was preserved. However, for so many years, the people within Western Ridge Kingdom could only reach the outside world through one Endless Mountain Range. And because of the sealing power, it was dark and sunless. But a thousand years ago, that great battle finally severed the only path from Western Ridge Kingdom to the outside world, which also caused the cultivation environment in Western Ridge Kingdom to deteriorate day by day.
As soon as they entered the mountains, Zhang Hao and Ye Zitong found the miasma becoming thicker. He quickly asked Ye Zitong, "Do you have any antidote Dan prepared?"
Ye Zitong nodded repeatedly and said, "Of course, do you think I'm that stupid?"
After speaking, Ye Zitong took out an antidote Dan and swallowed it.
"You didn't prepare any? Here, take this one." Ye Zitong took out a porcelain bottle, poured out an antidote Dan, and handed it to Zhang Hao.
Zhang Hao looked at the antidote Dan and shook his head. This antidote Dan was only a third-grade Dan; in his opinion, it was just trash.
Zhang Hao could also refine it himself, but he didn't have that much time to collect medicinal ingredients. So, he spent 20,000 points to purchase two antidote Dan in the System store.
"Your antidote Dan isn't very good, use mine instead!" Zhang Hao handed over an antidote Dan and said to Ye Zitong.
"What, nonsense, my antidote Dan is the effective one." Ye Zitong immediately felt a bit unconvinced after hearing Zhang Hao's words.
"Cough cough, I'm not lying to you. With your antidote Dan, you probably won't even be able to walk a quarter of the way before you can't bear it." Zhang Hao said to Ye Zitong very confidently.
"What do you know, this antidote Dan of mine was stolen from the Bai Family." Ye Zitong said to Zhang Hao proudly.
"That Bai Family of Bai Jietao?" Zhang Hao asked Ye Zitong with some curiosity.
Ye Zitong nodded to Zhang Hao and said, "Which Bai Family did you think it was? If it weren't for the Bai Family's antidote Dan, how could our Ye Family marry me to Bai Jietao?"
After Ye Zitong's detailed explanation, Zhang Hao finally understood the whole story. It turned out that in Western Ridge Kingdom, as the sealing time grew longer, the Martial Warriors in Western Ridge Kingdom became weaker and weaker. Every aristocratic family was looking for a way out. The path through the Endless Mountain Range, due to the terrifying Restrictions, had not been dared by any Martial Warrior for nearly a thousand years.
However, for hundreds of years, it had been rumored that at the end of Poison Demon Valley, there was a hidden path leading to the outside world. Therefore, for so many years, all the Martial Warriors had gone to Poison Demon Valley one after another. Compared to the Restrictions in the Endless Mountain Range, although Poison Demon Valley was equally dangerous, for the Martial Warriors of Western Ridge Kingdom, the possibility of success here was greater. After all, the danger here was mainly the potent miasma; they just needed to find a way to deal with the miasma.
This was also why the Alchemy aristocratic families in Western Ridge Kingdom were highly respected. Because they could refine antidote Dan, they were the only hope for all the Martial Warriors in Western Ridge Kingdom who wanted to reach the outside world.
However, the miasma in Poison Demon Mountain Range was extremely terrifying. For the Alchemy aristocratic families in Western Ridge Kingdom, although they had refined countless antidote Dan over the past thousand years, very few could achieve a truly effective result.
And the Bai Family was one of these Alchemy aristocratic families. Over the past thousand years, the Bai Family's research on antidote Dan had reached a level that ordinary Alchemy aristocratic families could not hope to match.
The Ye Family naturally also hoped to build a good relationship with the Bai Family and then obtain the Bai Family's antidote Dan. They hoped that one day they could leave the dark and sunless Western Ridge Kingdom. And Ye Zitong was naturally the sacrifice in this matter.
After learning all this, Zhang Hao also sighed. Because as far as he knew, this was not a way out, but just a treasure ground. He wondered if Ye Zitong would feel disappointed after knowing all this.
Seeing how confident Ye Zitong was about the antidote Dan she got from the Bai Family, Zhang Hao didn't try to persuade her further. Anyway, he was with her, and as long as he noticed something was wrong, he could treat her at any time.
The two continued to delve deeper. Along the way, they discovered countless skeletons. It was clear that these skeletons belonged to the Martial Warriors who had come to Poison Demon Valley in recent years. They had just died on the way to Poison Demon Valley.
The deeper they went, the fewer skeletons were on the ground, clearly indicating that not many Martial Warriors could persevere to the later stages.
Suddenly, Zhang Hao noticed that Ye Zitong's complexion beside him was wrong. Seeing her Face looking unwell, his heart skipped a beat, and he thought to himself: Crap, it seems her poison has acted up.
