Battle Through the Heavens: Starting from the Jia Ma Empire

Chapter 117 The Cave of Ten Thousand Poisons

Inside the massive spider-like structure, Lin Feng and his group saw countless figures coming and going as soon as they entered. However, despite the numerous transactions taking place there, the normally noisy building was unusually quiet.

"My lords, there is one rule that must be followed in the Ten Thousand Poisons Cave: no loud noises are allowed during transactions."

At this moment, Xiao Liu was no longer as passionate as he had been outside. Instead, he tried to keep his voice down and give Lin Feng and the others a hint.

"It is said that this is because the Poison King admires the habits of spiders, and therefore anyone who makes a loud noise in his presence is cruelly killed by him. The Ten Thousand Poison Cave has also inherited his will, and no loud noise is allowed."

After looking around and seeing that no one was paying attention to the place, Xiao Liu continued.

"It is said that there was once a powerful rogue cultivator at the Poison King level who was killed by the Poison Emperor for making a scene during a transaction because he did not abide by the rules of the Ten Thousand Poisons Cave. After that, no one dared to cause trouble on the territory of the Ten Thousand Poisons Cave."

"Oh?" Lin Feng reached out and pinched his chin. "This Poison King is quite interesting!"

"Little Six, this contains a poison-attribute manual. If you successfully cultivate it, it will make you quite formidable among your peers. Now, let us explore it ourselves!"

Lin Feng took out a set of scrolls from his storage ring and placed them in Xiao Liu's hands. Ignoring Xiao Liu's excitement, he led Xiao Yi Xian and Zi Yan forward.

"Thank you, sir! Thank you, sir!"

Even though Lin Feng and the others had gradually disappeared into the distance, Xiao Liu was still extremely excited. "As expected, I, Xiao Liu, am finally going to turn the tables!"

Lin Feng and his companions ignored the agitated Xiao Liu, who was merely a passerby in their lives. Once they left Poison King City, they might never see each other again in this lifetime.

Walking slowly through the Ten Thousand Poisons Cave, Lin Feng and his companions found it truly worthy of its renowned reputation. In just this short distance, they encountered many poisons rarely seen in the outside world.

"Xian'er, if you see something you like, just go for it."

"Mm." Little Fairy Doctor nodded. There was no need for words of thanks between them anymore. She only wanted to become stronger as soon as possible so that she could help Lin Feng. Unlike now, where Lin Feng was the only one giving.

After figuring it out, Little Fairy Doctor stepped forward and began discussing prices with the vendor.

Meanwhile, Zi Yan also curiously stepped forward to watch, occasionally chiming in with her own comments, which made Lin Feng, who was watching from behind, just want to laugh.

After they agreed on the price, Lin Feng, who was standing behind, stepped forward to pay in gold coins.

After buying numerous poisonous medicinal herbs from several vendors, Lin Feng suddenly stopped Little Fairy Doctor and Zi Yan, who were getting a little carried away with haggling. He turned slightly, looked towards a corner, and spoke softly.

"You've been watching for so long, shouldn't you come out by now? Otherwise, could I assume you're plotting something against us?"

As Lin Feng finished speaking, Zi Yan and Little Fairy Doctor also looked towards that corner. After a few breaths, several figures slowly emerged from that corner. They were dressed in black uniforms with a huge spider printed on their chests.

"Young master, we are staff members of the Ten Thousand Poisons Cave and have no ill intentions."

The middle-aged man who was in the lead spoke first and identified himself.

"We just happened to see that you all seemed to be in urgent need of a large number of poisonous spiritual items, so we had a sudden idea to invite you to the official trading place of the Ten Thousand Poisons Cave."

To dispel any doubts Lin Feng and the others had, the middle-aged man continued.

"If you can purchase a large number of spiritual items under my guidance, I will receive a substantial commission, which is why I am being so presumptuous."

"I see!"

Lin Feng's doubts were finally dispelled. He then exchanged a glance with Little Fairy Doctor and nodded. As for Zi Yan, this girl would follow Lin Feng and the others wherever they went.

"Please lead the way!"

"Gentlemen, this way please!"

Upon hearing Lin Feng's answer, a hint of joy flashed across the faces of the staff of the Ten Thousand Poisons Cave, and then the middle-aged man hurriedly led the way.

After turning several corners, Lin Feng and his group entered a cold and gloomy house, where even the air seemed to be filled with a gray aura.

"Gentlemen, this is the official trading place of the Ten Thousand Poisons Cave, and the branch of Poison King City has quite a few poison-attribute spiritual items needed by some Battle Kings."

Upon hearing the middle-aged man's words, a hint of joy flashed across Little Fairy Doctor's face. With these numerous spiritual items, she could quickly improve herself.

"Bring up all the spiritual items needed for Dou Ling and Dou Wang cultivation, anything other than those with poison attributes is fine." Lin Feng waved his hand generously. "Oh, and also bring out all the poison-attribute secret techniques and fighting skills that can be traded within your branch."

As for cultivation techniques, Lin Feng did not intend to trade them here. He remembered that there was a poison-attribute Earth-rank cultivation technique in the library of Canaan Academy. He would just need to wait for Little Fairy Doctor to reach the Dou Wang realm.

Given his current status in the academy, he could certainly ensure that Little Fairy Doctor obtains a poison-attribute Earth-rank cultivation technique as she desires. There would be no need for her to spend several months cultivating a Profound-rank poison-attribute technique beforehand.

Even if a technique has poisonous properties, the Ten Thousand Poison Cave might not trade it with outsiders.

Upon hearing Lin Feng's extremely bold words, the middle-aged man's face lit up with excitement.

"It seems we're going to reap a huge commission this time."

"Sir, the items you wish to trade are beyond my authority. Would you be so kind as to wait a moment while I immediately go and fetch the branch manager?"

"Okay, go ahead!"

After the members of the Ten Thousand Poisons Cave left, Lin Feng and his group sat down to rest in the reception room.

"Brother Lin Feng, I already possess the poison-making methods recorded in the Seven-Colored Poison Scripture, so why do you need to purchase other refining methods?"

Little Fairy Doctor also had some questions at this point, not out of heartache, since Lin Feng had already told her that wealth is only wealth if it's spoken aloud, but she was just a little puzzled.

"The records in the Seven-Colored Poison Scripture are enough for your cultivation, but if you want to innovate and become a master of poison, you must read extensively."

After hearing Lin Feng's words, Little Fairy Doctor nodded in understanding.

"Gentlemen, I am Poison Flame."

Just as Lin Feng and his companions were chatting casually, an old voice rang in their ears. Immediately afterward, several figures in black appeared in the reception room, while the middle-aged man from before was waiting behind them.

"A two-star Dou Wang? Interesting!"

"Is it true that what you all just said requires spiritual objects for cultivation, even those at the level of Battle Spirit or Battle King?"

The old man, a two-star Dou Wang, spoke, but there was a hint of doubt in his voice. Even if these people in front of him were from a great family, it was a bit too early for them to use Dou Ling or even Dou Wang level spiritual items!
