Chapter 1101: Chapter 267: Stepping into the Dragon Realm, Dragon and Phoenix Forge the Golden Core
Zhao Ya remembered the cave entrance she saw before she fell unconscious. Could it be that passing through that entrance leads to here?
Zhao Ya thought this way.
The little girl stood up and said, “Sister, how did you come here?”
Zhao Ya was stunned and said, “I was captured and brought here. By the way, did you see the man who was with me?”
The little girl was surprised and said.
“Are you talking about the Shennong’s descendant?”
Zhao Ya was taken aback, recalling that Chen Jie possessed the Chang Chun Skill, and said, “Yes, that’s him. Was he also rescued?”
Zhao Ya shared her thoughts, feeling somewhat anxious. She feared the little girl might tell her that Chen Jiusi was devoured by the giant snake Lord Jin for a snack.
The little girl Linglong said, “Oh, he’s in another room. Come with me.”
With that, she led Zhao Ya to another room where she saw Chen Jie.
At this time, Chen Jie had not awakened; he was completely unconscious and in a very strange state, as his face, arms, and exposed skin were all covered with fine scales.
It looked very creepy; those were snake scales!
“This!”
Seeing this scene, Zhao Ya’s eyes widened. Why was Chen Jiusi like this?
She couldn’t even believe Chen Jie had become such a neither human nor ghost form.
Linglong seemed to have seen Zhao Ya’s thoughts and said, his cultivation level is low. He entered the golden pool and soaked for a long time, causing the Golden Snake Gu Poison in the pool to invade his body. If he hadn’t possessed Shennong’s Technique.
Using its powerful life force to protect his internal organs, he would’ve already become a mindless monster, just right for Lord Jin’s dinner.
Hearing this, Zhao Ya turned and looked at Linglong, asking, “Golden Snake Gu Poison, what is Golden Snake Gu Poison?”
Linglong said, “This is the top toxic Gu of our Miao Village, essentially Lord Jin’s saliva. When Lord Jin’s saliva falls into water and nurtures for a thousand years, it becomes the most deadly Gu.”
“Once humans come into contact with it, they immediately fall under the Gu curse, and the Golden Snake Gu will cause people to grow scales, then degenerate their organs, eventually becoming a neither human nor ghost monster, and finally, when the Gu poison reaches the bones, organ failure leads to death.”
“Of course, Lord Jin usually prefers to eat them halfway through the transformation, saying the taste is best at that time.”
The little girl spoke of this horrifying matter as if it were a trivial thing.
Upon hearing Linglong’s words, Zhao Ya said, “Are you saying he might die?”
Linglong emphasized, “He’ll first become a monster, then die. The whole process is very painful, so sister, you better not look. When he becomes a monster, let Lord Jin eat him.”
Zhao Ya immediately panicked upon hearing this, “No, we can’t let him die!”
Linglong looked at Zhao Ya in confusion and asked, “Why? Is he sister’s beloved brother?”
“Mm!”
Zhao Ya looked up at Linglong and then shook her head, saying, “No, we are just friends.”
Linglong said, “Oh, then it’s not important. Friends are always insincere and you can have many. If one dies, then one dies.”
“Unlike a beloved brother, once one dies, there’s no beloved brother anymore.”
Saying this, Linglong turned and said, “I’m leaving. Sister should go out; he’ll soon look very unpleasant.”
Upon hearing this, Zhao Ya paused, looking at Linglong who was about to leave and said, “Stop.”
Linglong stopped and looked at Zhao Ya, “Hm, anything?”
Zhao Ya looked at Linglong and said, “Save him, okay?”
Linglong responded, “Saving him is very troublesome, and I alone can’t save him, so don’t bother.”
Zhao Ya said, “Lingling, what would make you willing to save him?”
Linglong turned and looked at Zhao Ya, “Do you really want to save him!”
Zhao Ya nodded firmly, “Yes, I must save him.”
Upon hearing this, Linglong returned and looked at Zhao Ya, saying, “Are you lying to me, is he really your beloved brother?”
Zhao Ya blushed at the question and said nothing, only responding, “If you think so, then let it be.”
Linglong laughed, “Oh, then that’s right. Since he’s a beloved brother, I’ll try to save him. But sister, the process might be very difficult, even deadly?”
Zhao Ya said, “I still want to save him. I don’t want him to die.”
Linglong said, “Alright, sister, have you noticed something?”
Zhao Ya looked at Linglong and asked, “What?”
“Having entered the golden pool, he’s become like this, but you’re fine?”
Zhao Ya was stunned, looked at her arm, touched her face, and indeed found herself unharmed.
What is happening?
Could she be immune to the golden pool?
Yes!
Zhao Ya looked up suddenly as Linglong then smiled, “Looks like sister has realized, yes, sister’s constitution is different from ordinary people, it’s the Phoenix Body.”
“Internally with Phoenix Blood, its nature is hot, while the golden pool is the dwelling place of Lord Jin, also known as the Dragon Transformation Pond.”
“Dragon Blood doesn’t harm Phoenix Blood, so sister entered the golden pool without a scratch.”
Upon hearing this, Zhao Ya’s gaze focused, realizing that it was actually her Phoenix Body that saved her.
Indeed, this is Zhao Ya’s unique constitution, the Phoenix Body, which is true golden lineage blood. This is why she holds a high position in the Prince Mansion and can even influence military power.
Prince Ruyang holds her in great favor.
The reason is simple, it’s her Phoenix Body.
It’s invaluable indeed.
Zhao Ya is smart, although she sometimes acts silly, that’s due to her limited Jianghu experience, but after hearing Linglong’s words, she understood that saving Chen Jie is probably related to her Phoenix Body.
Thinking this, she looked at Linglong and said, “So what should I do?”
Linglong said, “Sister, indeed smart.”
This Golden Snake Gu Poison, its nature is extremely yin and evil, to suppress it, it requires Lord Jin’s tears.
