Immortality Begins with Breathing Exercises-Chapter 296 - 131: Barbarian Race

Lai Chang has half of the map, and the other half is likely with this Lai Mao.

Lin Zheyu said with a half-smile, "Do you want to check again, see if there's anything else you haven't handed over?"

"..."

"This map, we found in a secret location."

"The map was drawn a long time ago. Many of the featured mountains and rivers on it have already disappeared."

"Through various means, we secretly investigated for a long time before locating the positions marked on the map."

"That location is in the Central Plains Guanghua Domain, near Pingyang City."

"We're not sure what's inside."

Lai Mao was silent for a moment, then reluctantly took out the remaining half of the map.

Although he seemed unwilling and reluctant, Lai Mao actually did not care much about the map in his heart.

He had already memorized the map entirely and secretly drawn several copies. 𝒻𝑟ℯℯ𝑤𝑒𝑏𝑛𝘰𝓋𝑒𝓁.𝒸𝑜𝘮

Even the "Barbaric Bear Demon Skill" was the same.

This one he carried around was just to study in his spare time, hoping to find the required herbs by chance.

"Is there anything else you need to confess?"

Lin Zheyu said lightly, "For instance, do you have any manuals related to the martial arts you've learned on you?"

"No."

"After we learned them, we destroyed the manuals."

"If someone knows the techniques we've learned, it's easy to find the flaws in them."

"That's why after learning, we destroy them immediately. The fewer people who know about the techniques we learned, the better."

"This 'Barbaric Bear Demon Skill,' because it was acquired not long ago, needs to be studied daily in spare time, so it's carried along."

Lai Mao said, and after speaking, worried about incurring Lin Zheyu's displeasure and murderous intent, he continued to add:

"Of course, if you need it, I can copy it out for you."

Lin Zheyu said lightly, "Then copy it out."

"Take this pill. If the cultivation technique you copy satisfies me, I'll give you the antidote."

He took out a pill from his bosom and handed it over.

This was a Corpse Worm Elixir. After taking it, every seven days, the poison would act up, causing heart-wrenching pain, feeling like millions of worms gnawing, unbearably itchy.

The making of the Corpse Worm Elixir requires corpse poison.

The living corpse in Dabashan, after Lin Zheyu became stronger, was no longer there when he looked for it again.

However, Lin Zheyu found a large amount of corpse poison in the coffin where the living corpse was nurtured.

He used that corpse poison to make only four Corpse Worm Elixirs.

"Alright!"

Lai Mao gritted his teeth and said in a deep voice.

Under the eaves, one has no choice but to lower their head.

He knew that if he didn't take this pill, there was no way he could survive.

Taking the pill from Lin Zheyu's hand, Lai Mao sniffed it, quickly analyzing the ingredients in his mind.

"Hmph!"

Lin Zheyu snorted lightly.

Lai Mao's body trembled and, not daring to delay, quickly swallowed the Corpse Worm Elixir.

"Very well."

"Let's head back to the inn. After eating, write out the cultivation technique manual first."

"Remember, don't wander around. If you leave this market and I catch you, you know the consequences."

Lin Zheyu patted Lai Mao's shoulder, smiling as he spoke.

The Corpse Worm Elixir is something he was using for the first time, and Lai Mao could just serve as a test subject to see how effective it is.

According to what's recorded in the Poison Canon, the Corpse Worm Elixir can easily control martial artists below the Qi Blood Three Transformations.

Theoretically, it should work on martial artists below the Bone Marrow Refining Realm.

But that is just theoretical. Lai Mao is a Qi Blood Four Transformations martial artist, and whether it works or not needs to be tested.

And on Bone Marrow Refining Realm martial artists, it's completely ineffective.

Bone Marrow Refining Realm martial artists, after undergoing Bone Marrow Cleansing and blood renewal, have incredibly strong bodies and life force; ordinary poisons and sedatives are useless.

Unless the dose is increased dozens or hundreds of times.

But with such a huge dose, even a fool would notice something is wrong, let alone a Bone Marrow Refining Realm martial artist.

The streets bustled with people coming and going.

The bright moonlight fell down.

The moonlight mixed with the dim lantern glow, reflecting Lai Mao's ever-changing, uncertain face.

"Damn it!"

Lai Mao cursed inwardly, wanting to vent the anger in his heart.

Had he known earlier, he would've just let his brother Lai Chang fend for himself.

He knew that this guy, whose mind is constantly driven by lust, would get him into trouble once they got to the Central Plains.

"What poison did I just take?"

"The taste is somewhat familiar, one of the ingredients seems like corpse poison."

"Could it be Yin Corpse Elixir?"

"Or Nether Luo Elixir?"

"Or maybe Corpse Worm Elixir?"

Lai Mao pondered to himself, thinking about the various elixirs made from corpse poison in his memory.

As a Qi Blood Four Transformations martial artist, Lai Mao was considered a top expert in Bafang City, and he was familiar with some commonly used poisons.

"Damn it, antidotes for elixirs made from corpse poison are extremely hard to concoct."

"Among these elixirs, I only know the formula for the antidote to Yin Corpse Elixir and the formula for the pill to alleviate symptoms. I don't know about the others."

Lai Mao thought rapidly, searching his entire memory but couldn't find a solution.

The antidotes to these types of poisons can't be taken randomly; the antidotes themselves are highly toxic.

If you don't know what poison you've been afflicted with and take an antidote randomly, it's easy to end up poisoned by another toxin without even solving the first one.

"If worst comes to worst, I'll have to hold on until I break through to the Bone Marrow Refining Realm, and rely on the immense life force and body strength of a Bone Marrow Refining Realm martial artist to withstand it."

Lai Mao took a deep breath, adjusting his emotions.

In the corner.

A pair of eyes watched Lai Mao.

It was Lin Zheyu, who had left the inn and returned.

Hiding in the dark, he observed Lai Mao's reactions, preventing him from sneaking away.
