Longevity Begins with the Seven Injuries Fist-Chapter 155 - 115: Poison Scripture! Advancing by Devouring Ten Thousand Poisons!

Chapter 155: Chapter 115: Poison Scripture! Advancing by Devouring Ten Thousand Poisons!

This can rapidly enhance the combat effectiveness of his army.

He intends to forge the Tang Sect’s Hidden Weapons depicted in these forging diagrams and manufacture poisons capable of killing across levels quickly, using them as their secret weapons.

Of course, he didn’t want Su Que to sell them off and let other forces obtain them.

"Buyout?" Su Que’s heart held an expectation, and the pair of eyes beneath the mask looked at Li Xuanji:

"I wonder what Mr. Li plans to use for the purchase?"

Li Xuanji said, "My Li Family holds some secret manuals; at that time, you may choose a few books to exchange for the forging diagrams."

Back then, the ancestors of my Li Family fought and plundered many powerful Martial Arts secret manuals.

The very powerful ones, like the Rakshasa Kui Divine Skill, have long been destroyed and passed down through oral tradition for generations.

However, those they deemed not so powerful are still considered secret skills in the Martial Arts world.

Using them to exchange for the Tang Sect’s Hidden Weapon Forging Diagram is more than adequate.

"Alright, I’ll see if there’s anything suitable then," Su Que said.

Su Que did not know that Li Xuanji’s ancestors were from the previous dynasty of the Liang Kingdom, preserving many valuable goods.

In the memories he inherited from his predecessor, he found that the Liang Kingdom was very secretive about its history.

Even though his predecessor was a Confucian scholar, he saw very few historical books.

His predecessor knew nothing about the history before the Liang Kingdom.

And in his predecessor’s mind, the history of the Liang Kingdom seemed to him to be nothing but grand embellishments.

Things like national stability, people living in peace, and no one stealing even if goods were left on the road...

It was very different from the Southern Domain where he lived.

Whether it was Jiannan Prefecture City or Jade Water City, taxes were extremely heavy, and gangs, evil cults, and bandits were rampant.

Although Jiannan Prefecture City had the Thunderbolt Army stationed there, preventing bandit invasions,

the taxes on the citizens of the Prefecture City were much heavier than in Jade Water City.

The citizens of the Prefecture City, while safe from harm, had to toil far more in their everyday lives compared to those in small towns.

He also learned from his predecessor’s memories that the Liang Kingdom’s dynasty lasted over nine hundred years.

And every emperor lived a remarkably long life, sitting on the throne for at least a hundred years.

The current Emperor Jing of Liang ascended the throne three hundred years ago.

He suspected that no ordinary person could live that long, and that the Emperor of Liang must possess extraordinary powers.

Moreover, without extraordinary powers, the Liang Kingdom could not have suppressed various uprisings, allowing the dynasty to last over nine hundred years.

After discussing with Li Xuanji, Su Que planned to interrogate the three Meridian Opening Realm Tang Sect experts.

"You can take those three back to Celestial Water City for interrogation," Li Xuanji suddenly said.

Previously, Su Que had agreed with him to leave the Tang Sect leader to Su Que.

He then guessed that Su Que wanted to learn something from the Tang Sect leader’s mouth.

Li Xuanji continued, "Celestial Water City has interrogation rooms, as well as numerous interrogation tools and substances."

"Moreover, my Heaven-Breaking Army has experts in interrogation who can help you obtain clear information in less time."

Su Que thought for a moment and then replied, "Alright."

Although taking these three to Celestial Water City for interrogation would allow the Heaven-Breaking Army to learn some of the Tang Sect’s secrets,

it wouldn’t affect him.

After all, the Tang Sect didn’t know anything about him, and he wasn’t fearful of what the three Tang Sect assassins might reveal.

Some secret manual cultivation methods, Su Que didn’t mind if the Heaven-Breaking Army knew about them either.

After all, there were many Tang Sect disciples who also knew these cultivation methods.

Moreover, even if the Heaven-Breaking Army learned about it, their speed in cultivation wouldn’t surpass his, and their understanding wouldn’t be as deep as his, so they would never pose a threat to him.

After Su Que agreed, Li Xuanji ordered his men to bind and gag the three Tang Sect members, and then helped Su Que carry them away.

...

After returning to Celestial Water City, Su Que utilized the resources of the Heaven-Breaking Army to interrogate the three.

Meanwhile, Li Xuanji arranged for people to guard the Tang Sect’s stronghold and secretly transport the Tang Sect’s secret manuals, forging diagrams, and other items back to Celestial Water City.

Rakshasa, Zhou Yinseng, and the assistant were awakened and first underwent a round of torture under interrogation tools.

The interrogation experts of the Heaven-Breaking Army applied some substances to them.

These substances would make the interrogated individuals relax and spill what they knew more freely.

But these three had practiced the Heart Scripture of Myriad Poisons, rendering the substances ineffective on them.

Su Que then asked about the pharmacology of these substances, and after administering them to the three, he infused them with Myriad Poison True Qi.

Combining the Myriad Poison True Qi with the substances, they successfully took effect on the three.

After a round of questioning, Su Que learned their identities.

From Rakshasa’s mouth, he learned the cultivation methods for the 5th Realm of the Heart Scripture of Myriad Poisons and the required poisons for consumption.

Rakshasa was an Outer Sect Celestial Level Assassin who managed to obtain the 5th Realm cultivation method of the Heart Scripture of Myriad Poisons.

Su Que also learned from Rakshasa’s mouth that

the Heart Scripture of Myriad Poisons known to the Tang Sect’s Outer Sect disciples was actually incomplete.

The Inner Sect’s version of the Heart Scripture of Myriad Poisons was split into two parts: the Heart Method and the Poison Scripture.

The Poison Scripture section elaborated on the nature of various poisons, including intensifying and neutralizing poisons, and more.

If one understood the Poison Scripture, they would know how to consume all sorts of poisons to advance the Heart Scripture of Myriad Poisons.

That was why the Tang Sect’s Outer Sect disciples, in order to advance, had to consume specific poisons.

Because they were not qualified to access the Poison Scripture, they had to obediently follow the Tang Sect Inner Sect’s guidance to advance the Heart Scripture of Myriad Poisons.

Additionally, Su Que learned that

Rakshasa was entrusted by the Tang Sect Inner Sect to go to Miaojiang to retrieve several poisonous herbs needed by the Inner Sect.

Knowing this information, Su Que contemplated.

Rakshasa was entrusted by the Tang Sect Inner Sect, and if he disappeared, the Inner Sect might keep an eye on his movements.

Moreover, as the head of the Tang Sect’s Outer Sect in Celestial River City, if he didn’t return for a long time, his subordinates at the Outer Sect stronghold would surely report back to the Tang Sect Inner Sect.

By then, it’s possible the Tang Sect Inner Sect might send someone down to investigate.

However, this was exactly what he wanted.

If the Tang Sect Inner Sect disciples came down, he could capture them and learn the Poison Scripture part of the Heart Scripture of Myriad Poisons.

Once he understood the Poison Scripture, he would have the foundational knowledge of this Martial Arts, and even if he didn’t know the subsequent cultivation methods of the Heart Scripture of Myriad Poisons, he could deduce them on his own.

He wouldn’t be stuck like before, not knowing which poisons to consume to advance and thus unable to progress.

Thinking of this, he extracted the Tang Sect Inner Sect Elder’s contact method from Rakshasa’s mouth.

He could use this method to impersonate Rakshasa, claiming to have acquired the poisons, and see if he could lure the Tang Sect Inner Sect Elder down.

He asked Rakshasa about the strength of the Tang Sect Elder.

However, Rakshasa said the Tang Sect Elder didn’t disclose that.

But he heard that this Tang Sect Elder had opened at least seventeen meridians.

Hearing this, Su Que thought he must quickly enhance his strength, at the very least open up to eighteen meridians, or even breakthrough the Meridian Opening Realm, reaching the next realm to be a hundred percent sure when facing this Tang Sect Elder.

After learning about the poisons required for the next two realms of the Heart Scripture of Myriad Poisons, Su Que entrusted Li Xuanji to help him gather the corresponding poisons.

Li Xuanji intended to win over Su Que, and with the Heaven-Breaking Army’s extensive network and wide connections, gathering these poisons wasn’t difficult.

Thus, Su Que didn’t have to spend any extra effort in gathering these poisons.

Information about the downfall of the Tang Sect naturally couldn’t be leaked.

Otherwise, new Tang Sect Outer Sect assassins might be dispatched.

To prevent this, someone had to disguise themselves, set up the Tang Sect’s stronghold, and eliminate some still-active Tang Sect assassins.

However, this would require a lot of manpower, and the ones who didn’t want the information to leak were not just Su Que but also Li Xuanji.

Moreover, compared to him, Li Xuanji was even more keen to keep this information from leaking.

As a result, Su Que didn’t bother with this matter, leaving it entirely up to Li Xuanji.

The Tang Sect in Jiannan Prefecture was eradicated in just a morning by the time Su Que finished his interrogation.

Su Que quickly returned to Jiannan Prefecture City using lightweight skill.

When he got home, his sister happened to have lunch ready.

The next day, Su Que thought that Li Xuanji probably hadn’t collected the poisons so quickly, so he stayed home to cultivate for the time being.

On the third day, after checking in with his supervisor, he went to Celestial Water City to ask Li Xuanji if he had collected the poisons.

Li Xuanji said they had been gathered by the afternoon of the day before yesterday, just waiting for him to come.

Su Que took the poisons and was about to pay, but Li Xuanji said it wasn’t necessary.

After a few rounds of pushing back and forth, Su Que didn’t pay and accepted the poisons.

He packed the poisons in a bundle and took them home to prepare for advancing the Heart Scripture of Myriad Poisons.
