351 The Five Poison Sect

A’tian felt a little guilty, thinking that Li Mao was talking about them. However, he saw Ye Xuan’s eyes fixed in the southwest direction, and another group of people walked over.

These people were dressed in black and purple clothes embroidered with poisonous creatures such as centipedes, scorpions, and spiders. Not only that but their exposed skin was also tattooed with totems of poisonous insects and other creatures. They seemed to have come with ill intentions.

“Five Poison Sect! I knew it was you guys doing nasty things behind the scenes.”

The people from the Five Poison Sect only sneered, “If you know what’s good for you, hand over the serene orchid silver grass and all the herbs you’ve found.”

!!
The expressions of Li Mao and the others were extremely unsightly. The Five Poison Sect had caused trouble before, but they didn’t expect that they would go even further and demand everything from them.

It must be known that these medicinal herbs had been picked by them after going through great hardships, and they had even lost a few of their senior and junior brothers because of it. In the end, the Five Poison Sect followed behind them and wanted to take advantage of them.

“Dream on!”

The Five Poison Sect’s people said fiercely, “Then you’ll just have to collect the corpse.”

The face of the poisoned disciple began to turn blue. If there was no antidote, there was no way to save him. Li Mao and the others could not just watch him die.

However, it was impossible for them to lower their heads to the Five Poison Sect.

“They don’t dare to fight us openly, so they secretly use such underhanded methods. They are simply despicable and shameless.”

“Bah! What Five Poisons? What else do you know besides poisoning?”

“I’m afraid they can’t beat us, so they can only think of this method.”

Upon hearing their words, the faces of the Five Poison Sect members turned darker and darker. “You’re still so stubborn even when you’re about to die. I was thinking that if you were sensible, I would leave your corpses intact, but it seems that there’s no need to do so now.”

Li Mao was also a tough nut to crack. “At most, we’ll fight to the death. Even if we die, we’ll drag a few down with us.”

The people of the Five Poison Sect were known for their ruthlessness. Even if they admitted defeat to them, they would probably not have a good ending.

“Then I’ll start with you!”

As soon as he finished speaking, hundreds of spiders jumped up and surrounded Li Mao. These little spiders didn’t seem to have any offensive power, but the poison in their bodies couldn’t be underestimated.

Li Mao’s entire body emitted flames, and the scorching flames soared into the sky. Before the small spider army could even get close, they were completely burned to ashes.

The crackling sound was like the sound of firecrackers during the new year. Countless black spots fell from the sky, and the air was filled with an indescribable burning smell.

Li Mao’s eyes were cold. “The Five Poison Sect is nothing.”

“Is that so?”

When he caught a glimpse of the meaningful look on the faces of the Five Poison Sect members, Li Mao seemed to have thought of something. He knew that things were not good and quickly reminded his group, “Everyone, hold your breath!”

The spider itself was poisonous, and after being burned, the poison did not disappear. Instead, it was released.

However, he was still too late. Many people were already showing signs of poisoning. Their faces were ashen and they looked like they had difficulty breathing.

“Senior Brother Li, I feel like puking.”

“Senior Brother Li, my head hurts.”

The Five Poison Sect members admired their pained expressions. “I’ve carefully cultivated these venomous spiders. Even if they die, their poison will not disappear, regardless of whether you burn them or drown them.”

Therefore, no matter what kind of attack Li Mao used, he would fall into the Five Poison Sect’s trap.

Li Mao looked at his fellow apprentices who were in extreme pain from the poison. He gritted his teeth and said, “You guys are really despicable.”

“If you beg for mercy now and hand over those herbs, we can still give you a quick death. Otherwise, I’ll let you know what it means to be devoured by ten thousand insects.”

Even though Li Mao had killed a lot of spiders, the poisonous creatures were endless. If they came again, he couldn’t kill them all. He didn’t dare to act rashly.

If the poisonous gas became more serious, it would undoubtedly make things worse for the poisoned disciples. They would not even be able to hold on for half an incense’s time.

The disciples in their group were not strong, and the one with the highest cultivation was Li Mao. If he had been alone, he would have had a chance to break through the Five Poison Sect’s encirclement, but he would not be able to live with himself if he had to leave so many disciples here.

“Senior Brother Li, you should leave quickly. Don’t worry about us.”

“That’s right, Senior Brother Li. You should go back and find the valley master and the others.”

Li Mao’s eyes turned red and he said, “If I leave, what will happen to all of you?!”

The people from the Five Poison Sect put on an act. “Tsk, tsk, tsk. I’m so touched. You can’t even protect yourself. Not even a fly can get out of here today.”

They didn’t expect the Five Poison Sect members to be so deranged.

“How dare you! Aren’t you afraid that the Valley of Medicine Masters will find you and settle the score?!”

However, the Five Poison Sect was not afraid of Li Mao’s threat at all. “Since we’ve already done it, there’s nothing to be afraid of.”

“If you all don’t even have a corpse, we can just blame it on the demonic beasts. Even if the Valley of Medicine Masters suspects us, what can they do without evidence?”

Looking at the extremely arrogant faces of the Five Poison Sect, Li Mao and the others were so angry that they could not speak.

He felt that his spiritual power was a little sluggish. Although his cultivation was high, he had inhaled so much poisonous gas that it was inevitable that he would be affected. If he stayed here any longer, he was afraid that he would be the same as the others.

Li Mao steeled his heart and wanted to self-destruct, but he would at least drag a few people from the Five Poison Sect along with him. “Even if I have to destroy these spiritual herbs, I will not let you have your way.”

However, due to the influence of the poison, the spiritual power in his body could not be completely condensed.

The Five Poison Sect seemed to have seen through his thoughts. “Don’t waste your breath on this group of people. Since they are not willing to hand it over, then send them to hell!”

“Whoosh!”

The sound of the air being torn came from the air. The powerful airflow made the Five Poison Sect members hurriedly dodge to the side. In an instant, they were thrown off their horses.
