Chapter 175



“I understand where it is coming from. But now that the enemy has gotten wind about our stay in these regions, we need to stay behind to hold them off, at least until you and Su Menqi successfully escape. Our power has recovered quite a bit since the injury.”

“But the enemy has a monarch level power. You wouldn’t be able to hold your ground against such a force. We need to escape together.”

“The enemy we have faced until now is quite cautious. He wouldn’t make a move out of pure whim. He would first gauge our strength. The fact remains that he himself attacks and injured us. Hence he would send a relatively low force to try and subdue us.”

“You mean to say that the enemy would definitely underestimate your prowess.” Long Tao wasn’t ready to believe that such a cultivator existed. If someone was able to climb the ladders of the cultivation world and become a Qi monarch, he must be quite apprehensive of every situation in their life.

“The misjudgment wouldn’t stem out of his overconfidence, but rather from him being misinformed about our situation. You see that theoretically, the damage inflicted on me for performing that spell should have been extremely severe, but I found out that it was not the case. The ice-jade body played a huge role in reducing the impact of the damage.”

“The same goes for your general. Although he doesn’t possess ay resource which would have aided him at his peak strength, the treasures he acquired from his now extinct family would be enough to retrain until the same level. It was also the reason we made a rapid recovery.”

“Make your decision now. Would you like to accompany my daughter or not?”

The Crimson Lord world-

“The ice-jade body is quite a treasure, Long Tao. If you were able to help her nurture it well enough, she can turn out to be an incredibly strong ally, whose speed of cultivation would astonish even you. There is also a treasure within the divine treasury of the crimson lord world, which can provide you with a method to train the ice-jade body to the next level.”

“What is the next level called?’

“It is called the perma-frost body, and is the second level of the ice-jade body.”

“I didn’t expect there to be multiple levels to one’s natural body types. Is there any upgrade to it?”

“There is as a matter of fact, but achieving it requires an absurd amount of luck. The third and the ultimate level is called the absolute-frost body. Achieving it through natural means is possible, but the training environment required is an extremely cold space. The only other way is through natural oddities.”

“But an oddity which can give you an ultimate natural body type should be quite a rare right.”

“As far as I know you require a total of 40 types of ice herbs just to build the pill required to intake such a powerful natural oddity. As per the oddity, it should be a premium ice vein at the very least, something only a martial monarch can use. The more you delay in upgrading, the harder it would become.”

“What would be the best time to upgrade to the next stage.”

“The best time to upgrade to absolute -frost body is during the Qi emperor level. It is the time when it takes the least amount of resources to promote. She needs to enter the perma-frost stage via the time she enters Qi King.”

“Then she would be a worthwhile investment, right?”. Long Tao asked with a serious face.

“I have watched you since your childhood boy. I know you would have accepted her proposal even if she had a normal body type. It is because of the fact that you have already fallen for her. Just go ahead and accept.”

..............................................................

Long Tao’s tent

“Before giving you a reply, I would like to inform this matter to Su Menqi. She has the right to know about her past. Now that she managed to enter the Qi general realm, the time is near when she needs to face the enemy.” Long Tao insisted on this matter.

“I have already sent for her. She must be arriving in some time...” A figure soon entered the tent, dressed in black. He was carrying a girl on his back. Upon closer look, it was none other than Su Menqi who was rendered unconscious. The woman rushed towards her and inspected her body.

Her body was pale and there were shades of purples all over her body. Her nails were starting to get darker and the lips were getting pale in color. She was poisoned by somebody.

“How did this happen? Who did this to her?”

“It was those bastards from the poison-devil sect. They were dispatched from the other direction, towards the location of young miss. They managed to get to her before I can. One of the members used poison on her. Even with my understanding, I couldn’t verify the source and hence am not able to cure her.”

He handed a pouch to the woman who inspected it. Her expression turned to dismay after some time. She couldn’t evaluate the poison in Su Menqi’s system. The general stepped up to inspect the satchel, but he too was heart-broken in the end.

“We must begin to extract the poison forcefully out of her.” The woman stepped up and was about to use her palm on Su Menqi when Long Tao barged into the middle. “I would like you to refrain from using that.”

“Your identity and motive are not yet confirmed by me. Also forcefully extracting the poison would result in her body being damaged internally. I can’t allow you to do that.” The woman was about to speak up when Long Tao raised his hand and demanded the sachet. Once he got his hand on the poison, he began to examine it.

.................................................

The crimson lord world-

“We need time to deconstruct the poison. You can use some of the cleansing pills to stabilize her condition and extract some amount of poison from her body. It should provide you with enough time to come up with an anti-formula for the poison.”

Long Tao’s avatar began to examine the poison in the crimson lord world, while he took out some of the top-grade cleansing pills from his storage.

Upon feeding Su Menqi with them, the color on her face improved a bit and the purplish color began to get lighter. “What did you feed her.” The pills shine and the fragrance was extraordinary. She didn’t expect Long Tao to possess such a quality pill.

“It is a body cleansing pill; whose component has an antiseptic and anti-venom effect. Although the effect is mild, some of the poison would be extruded from her body. I can use that time to come up with an anti-poison formula to cure her.”

“You are an alchemist?” Both the general and eth woman was shocked. Upon getting a no from Long Tao, they looked at him with disbelief.

“It explains the rapid progress of the black-buck squad. You were refining pills for them to train with.”

The Keeper and the hall master of pill hall in Crimson lord world were accompanying Long Tao in his study. “It might take a longer time to come up with a solution. You need to help reduce the poison quantity in her body and restrict its flow. You can use the flame and thunder in your body to do that.”

“Use the flame to create a shell for the poison flowing in her and any residual amount should be eliminated by the thunder energy. You have an element king body along with two other natural body types. These poisons would work on you. Hence be calm while refining the poison.”

............???................................

Long Tao began to do exactly as the Keeper advised. He managed to refine a bowl for the storage of any large quantity of poison and then used thunder energy to refine the residual traces in her blood. He fed Su Menqi many souls calming extract from herb so that she could properly pass through the procedure.

Both the general and his wife were astonished by Long Tao’s prowess and resourcefulness. Su Menqi was finally in a stable condition and Long Tao could concentrate on the anti-poison construct. He let her rest on his bed and came out.

“We thank you for what you have done. Our daughter is alive and well because of you. We are obliged to give her an explanation, but we can no longer wait. Take this memory slip and pass it to her. It would help unlock all her memories and provide her with every single information about me and her father.”

“We request you to go to Wuji city next.”

‘What for?” Long Tao had heard about the Wuji city. It was one of the important merchant cities in the empire. It was quite far from here and they would require some time to reach there.

“The annual beats hunt is about to begin. It is the only time cultivators below Qi king are granted access into the 1000 beasts mountain. There is an ice element fountain in there that could help Su Menqi cultivate her body and unlock its full potential. Here is the map showing the location of the fountain.”

Both the general and woman exited after saying their last words:

“We hope you take good care of her.”

Long Tao clenched his fist and replied under his breath “I will.” He continued to look at the departing figures
