Martial arts ascend to the gods

Chapter 470 Poison Wound
The Undead Knight's nine strikes were like a bucket of cold water poured over his head.

Although, Zhou Leng was not convinced.

"After I become a Great Innate Realm expert, I'll kill your horse first."

Back in the tent, a quick assessment revealed that the bones in his right arm were broken inch by inch, and his internal organs were severely injured.

The energy contained a strange demonic power that was raging within the body.

Fortunately, he possessed the power of a high-level tree spirit and was not afraid of it, resulting in a stalemate between the two sides.

Zhou Leng swallowed various pills and used his internal energy to heal his injuries.

As soon as the Star Phoenix Rejuvenation Technique was activated, thousands of Star Phoenix feathers flickered gently within his bone marrow.

With a whooshing sound, like a phoenix spreading its wings, all the demonic power was forced out.

Puff puff puff... Wisps of black smoke, like fine needles, emerged from the pores and dissipated into the air.

Without the suppression of demonic power, all injuries became ordinary injuries.

One second, two seconds... twenty seconds later, most of the injuries were healed.

However, his body was ultimately damaged, so he continued to practice internal energy to heal his injuries.

After practicing his internal energy for two full hours, Zhou Leng, feeling fully energized, stepped out of the tent.

The eight members of the Hidden Martial Artists stood outside. When they saw Zhou Leng come out, some forced a smile, while others looked worried.

"How is it going?" Zhiliao asked.

"All right."

"Ok?"

"All right."

"All right?"

“Hmm,” Zhou Leng said.

"Don't be reckless. Many martial artists have suffered internal injuries from overconfidence and ended up regretting it."

Everyone looked at Zhou Leng with suspicion. He had withstood an attack from the Undead Knight, which would have severely injured him even if he didn't die. Why was he not taking it seriously?

Zhou Leng took out a bottle of mineral water, poured it into his right hand, and then turned his right hand, unleashing his true energy.

A bright white line of water was seen circling and slowly rising, its speed steady and its lines symmetrical, circling again and again, like a huge water spring or a coiled snake.

This is a method for checking the stability of Qi and blood.

After taking a closer look, everyone felt relieved.

Zhi shook her head, handed over a black plastic bag, and said, "This is a special healing medicine for you. Keep it for later use."

Zhou Leng accepted the medicine, worth tens of millions of yuan. "That's good."

"How's the battle going?"

"After the Undead Knight made his rounds, two more Demon Giants hurled two Death Angels. You can imagine the scene: within a radius of several hundred meters, demons and humans alike perished."

The others also sighed softly.

"No one survived?"

"They were born with a few extra seconds of life, then their flesh and blood fell off, and their bones shattered. Then, our army had to retreat temporarily, and they had to vomit up everything they had eaten."

Zhou Leng asked, "Does the higher-ups have any methods to deal with the Undead Knight and the Angel of Death?"

"If it existed, it would have been used long ago."

The madman said, "Actually, there is a chance, but the cost is high, or rather, it's a hard-fought battle."

"To deal with the Undead Knights, we'll have to rely on the Great Innate Realm experts to wear them down. Ten won't be enough, we'll need at least twenty. If nothing unexpected happens, we're already mobilizing the elite Great Innate Realm experts."

"Dealing with the Angel of Death..." the madman paused before continuing, "is even more brutal than dealing with the Undead Knight. Draw lots, charge in, and lure the Angel of Death into self-destruction. One for one, that's the best strategy. That's how we've always gotten by."

"Is this the only way?"

"it's the only way."

Zhou Leng remained silent for a long time, then sighed and said, "I'll go in again tonight. As soon as the Undead Knight arrives, I'll run away."

"Alright, even an Undead Knight can't kill you in one move. Unless you're courting death, no one below the Grandmaster level can do anything to you. If you're ambushed, remember to call for help; a master will definitely come to your rescue. The rest of us won't follow you; we'll take turns fighting as usual."

Zhou Leng returned to his tent to cultivate. As night fell, he stormed into Tiger Hill Fortress.

The moment Zhou Leng appeared, the battle situation in the area immediately turned around.

Two hours later, at the rear of the demon army, a pitch-black demon giant, its entire body gleaming with protective magic, lifted a strange person and hurled it at Zhou Leng.

The humanoid creature traced an arc in the sky and landed towards Zhou Leng's location.

Zhou Leng and the others looked up, and their expressions changed drastically.

The humanoid creature's head was a huge glass dome, inside which floated a humanoid brain in green liquid.

Beneath the glass enclosure lies a distorted human body.

The angel of death.

"Run!"

Everyone was plunged into despair.

Zhou Leng turned and ran, fully activating the Mother Tree Leather Armor, the Flowing Silver Armor, and the Taiqing Sea Robe. Then he stopped using the Star-Gazing True Qi and activated the Star Phoenix Returning to Heaven Technique.

After running only thirty meters, the angel of death exploded.

boom!
A vibrant, multicolored green burst open, instantly spreading across an area with a radius of several hundred meters.

Not only humans, but even demons are shrouded in this.

Desperate cries for help, shouts of curses, and wails filled the foggy area.

The people or monsters on the very edge rushed out of the mist, and as they ran, they collapsed to the ground.

They either developed fleshy growths all over their bodies, which kept expanding and bursting open.
Either your entire body melts away and slides off with a whoosh.

Either the whole body is sizzling with smoke, and when the smoke stops, the flesh and blood dissipate.

Or the body decomposes rapidly...

Whether demon or human, they felt both hatred and fear as they watched their comrades struggling inside and outside the poisonous fog.

Suddenly, a figure burst out of the poisonous fog, landed in a house, and quickly fled the battlefield.

The man was emitting faint fumes from his body. Some of his exposed skin was sizzling as if sulfuric acid had been poured on it, some had large pustules, and some were rotting over large areas.

"It's that demon-slaying hero."

"He doesn't seem to be dead..."

"As expected of him..." Zhou Leng dared not linger here. After using his true energy to disperse the poison and magical power outside his body, he ran directly to the outside of our camp, took out the simple tent that had already been set up from his spatial bag, said "I'm poisonous, stay away from me," crawled into the tent, sat down to meditate, and began to heal his injuries.

The nearby guards were terrified. They reported the incident to their superiors while warning those around them to keep a safe distance.

They couldn't see the person's face, because both the face and other parts of the body were covered with all sorts of poison and demonic wounds.

Soon, people started coming over to ask what was going on.

"That person must have been poisoned by the angel of death."

"Huh? So it can still run back?"

"They were probably only slightly affected by the poison on the edge, otherwise they wouldn't have made it back."

"good."

"As long as he survives and is sent to a field hospital, the martial arts master Hua Tuo will definitely be able to save him."

"Is Hua Tuo, the master of martial arts, really that powerful?"

“Really impressive. One of my senior brothers was supposed to live for no more than a month, but after the martial arts Hua Tuo went to see him, he was lively and energetic again in less than five days.”

"However, Hua Tuo, the master of martial arts, has not appeared recently."

"Treatment is so harmful to the body, it can't last forever."

"It depends on this person's fate."

The group chatted in hushed tones.

A full hour later, Zhou Leng stepped out of the tent, looked around, threw the tent aside, and said, "Find a magic spirit master to deal with this; there's some residual poison in the tent."

Everyone looked at Zhou Leng, who was wearing a black hood, and his exposed skin had a white steel sheen, without any signs of injury.

"This... senior, where is the deadly poison in your body?"

"I only had a tiny bit of it, and it's already been cleared up."

"This... According to normal management regulations, if someone is poisoned or subjected to magic, they should be tested."

"Then I'll wait here for the Demon Master."

"Please wait a moment."

Before long, a young Qi and Blood Realm Demon Spirit Master arrived, holding a Demon Spirit Artifact for inspection.

"Senior, you have passed the test and may enter the camp."

Zhou Leng entered the camp.

The demon master stood still, watching Zhou Leng's back.

"Really?" A martial artist cautiously peeked over and looked at the magical artifact in the magician's hand.

“Really,” the spirit master said.

"Then why are you staring blankly?"

"The energy density in this person's body... is even higher than the energy density of the deadly poison."

"Huh? What does that mean?"

"It means exactly what it says. Moreover, his resistance to magic is particularly strong. It's unclear whether he was always like that or became stronger by resisting the deadly poison."

"No wonder he's a senior in the Innate Realm, impressive."

"This one is also masked, could he be the one carrying the arrow?"

"not sure……"

Zhou Leng returned to his tent and resumed his martial arts perception.

"It's strange. It's understandable that the poison and magic were dispelled, but why does my body seem to have changed slightly in my martial arts perception? It's like I've been enhanced, but it's still a bit hard to pinpoint."

He recalled the events that had transpired.

There's nothing special about it.

It involves using the Star Phoenix Resurrection Technique, life-giving medicinal fruits, and antidotes; nothing else...

Suddenly, I remembered that at the critical moment of expelling the poison, the mother tree's bark armor had proactively provided pure life force, something that had never happened before.

Previously, the mother tree's bark armor simply emitted life force naturally.

"Tree people have always had strong resistance to poisons; most potent poisons are basically ineffective against them, perhaps due to the bark armor of the mother tree..."

Zhou Leng was also worried that the lingering poison might leave lasting effects, so he obediently cultivated in the tent and observed his body.

The deadly poison has indeed disappeared, but it is too damaging to the body, so rest is still necessary.

The next day, nothing happened.

Zhou Leng was in a good mood and went to the battlefield again.

After killing for an hour, a warning was received: the Undead Knights had arrived.

Zhou Leng immediately fled, running wildly through the fortress, constantly changing his appearance and attacking demons haphazardly.

Having lost sight of Zhou Leng, the Undead Knight departed.

Having grown accustomed to the exhilarating feeling of head-on confrontation with innate demonic creatures, Zhou Leng found indiscriminate killing too inefficient and quickly ran back.

Soon, the Undead Knight reappeared, and Zhou Leng fled again.

After the Undead Knight left, Zhou Leng continued fighting against the Innate Brigade.

Suddenly, three angels of death were thrown over.

This time, Zhou Leng was well-prepared and was about to run away when he caught a glimpse of the horrified faces of the many martial artists. He steeled himself, quickly drew three fine steel spears, and threw them at the three Death Angels.

After throwing the ball, he turned and ran.

I tried my best.

boom!
The three angels of death exploded in mid-air ahead of time, engulfing a large area of ​​monsters, who screamed in agony.

Despite still being shrouded in deadly poison, Zhou Leng, just like yesterday, dashed to the outside of the camp, skillfully took out the tent that had been set up, crawled inside, and began to heal his wounds.

His entire body was torn and bleeding, his left arm was sizzling with white smoke, his right arm was slightly melting, his face was full of pits, his back was split open in large sections, and there was even a round hole in his chest through which you could see his heart pounding...

The body was covered in a deadly poison that was a mixture of deadly toxins, magic, curses, and various other powers.

Yesterday, Zhou Leng was in a panic, thinking that he would die from poisoning.

This time, he discovered that the deadly poison seemed to be slightly weaker than yesterday. In addition, having gained experience, he knew he wouldn't die, so he carefully used his martial arts perception.

Let's see what force is helping us to strengthen ourselves.
