Return of Mount Hua Sect - Chapter 209
“This… this crazy old man really did this!”
Tang Gun ak hid his hand in his sleeve. His grip on the dagger was trembling, as if he was about to draw it. Tang Gun ak’s movement seemed to indicate how excited he was.
Tang Wei, on the other hand, just laughed at him.
“It’s nothing but for a legitimate duel.”
“Do you mean to use extreme poison for a legitimate duel? It’s a poison that doesn’t have any cure!”
Tang Gun ak clenched his teeth.
It’s getting late.
Even if Chung Myung jumps into the stage now, he will not be saved. Only Tang Gun ak could be infected and survive.
Tang Gun ak, whose eyes were dizzy from the rage coursing through his veins, raised a vein of blood around his neck and yelled. It was a voice filled with rage.
“Can you be proud to be an Elder of the Tang Family even after all this? You duel with the children of Righteous Sect, and use the poison without a cure, what’s the difference between you and Sapa then?” (Sapa is Evil Sect.)
Tang Gaju no longer addressed Tang Wei as Wonju. Tang Wei is no longer deserving of the title of Senate leader.
How can he respect a man as an Elder if he has abandoned even the smallest aspect of the Righteous Sect?
Despite Tang Gun ak’s bloody cry, Tang Wei only laughed at him.
“Haha, did you say it’s a group of Sapa?”
“Yes!”
“Gaju. Calm down! That’s why the Tang family couldn’t get their hands on the world!”
Tang Wei summoned poison energy in both of his hands.
“What is the situation of the Tang family! Even with poison and dagger art that can criticize the world at any time if they want to, they are stuck in the corner of this Sichuan and claiming to be a local ruler! How long do we have to be tied up by this worn-out law?”
Tang Wei’s eyes glowed with an unusual light.
“Qingcheng? Emei? That’s not even funny! If they really turn to our enemies, it won’t take a day to paint Qingcheng and Emei with blood! But what’s our situation? We are surrounded and can’t do anything! Is this the future of the Tang Family that Gaju wants?”
“So? You’re going to poison anyone? If you do that, you’ll only be the enemy of all under the heaven!”
“Or rule it. Don’t you think so?”
Tang Gun ak’s face had lost its color. His rage is boiling over, and he is losing his mind.
Grit.
Tang Gunnak, who was grinding his teeth, yelled angrily.
“What are you doing! Catch that sinner and get him to jail!”
“Sinner? Who is the sinner?”
Tang Wei swore and pointed to Tang Gun ak.
“A sinner must be referring to the Gaju who weakened the Tang family! How much have you ignored the Tang Family to form an alliance with Mount Hua?”
“This…”
Tang Wei said with a click of his tongue.
“Gaju. The reason our elders resigned is not that they are weak. Don’t forget that if you keep trying to persecute our elders in this way, we can change our minds too.”
Tang Gun ak’s nails dug into his hand’s palm.
His trembling fists couldn’t free themselves from the sleeves. Even though Tang Wei committed a heinous crime, Tang Wei is an Elder of the Tang Family. He is unable to attack him in front of everyone.
Moreover…
Tang Gun ak clenched his teeth as he returned his gaze to the family members.
Although they do not express it openly, they appear to sympathize with Tang Wei’s words.
Tang Gun ak wept silently.
‘It’s entirely my fault.’
It was all Tang Gun ak’s fault for allowing Tang Wei to speak in front of so many people, for failing to notice Tang Wei’s hidden ambition, and, most importantly, for allowing Tang Wei and Mount Hua Divine Dragon to duel.
He should have intervened.
He should not have thought of interfering in such a crude manner, but rather should have stopped the duel itself. So it shouldn’t have started in the first place.
Such terrible consequences came from a split second of hesitation and unreasonable belief.
“This…”
Tang Gun ak reached into his sleeve for a dagger.
“H- Hey! Over there!”
The poison that had filled the stage is being blown away by a gust of wind from somewhere. Those who were watching from a distance fled in all directions in fear.
“Hmm.”
Tang Wei used his power to propel the poison into the sky. Everything he’s done so far will be ruined if anyone becomes infected with the poison.
Tang Wei turned his head with a fishy smile towards where the poison had been lifted.
He sends his condolences to Chung Myung, who is currently a handful of blood……
“W- What?”
Tang Wei’s eyes grew to the size of a candle.
What drew his attention was not a melted corpse.
Chung Myung was the only one there.
“How…”
Even though his clothes were tainted with poison, Chung Myung’s body appeared normal when exposed.
He was twitching, however, while holding the floor.
Soon.
“Uwoghh!”
Chung Myung continued to vomit.
Tang Wei never laughed at the sight, despite how ridiculous it appeared.
“Ugh! Uwooghh!”
Chung Myung, who had vomited twice, wiped his lips dry and struggled to his feet.
Tang Wei struggled to open his mouth.
“The poisoning…”
“Oh, did I eat too much?”
Chung Myung made a shaky motion with his head.
“I can’t believe it has made me like this. What a dish.”
“…….”
Tang Wei looked at Chung Myung as if he couldn’t believe it.
Food?
Is it not poison?
“……how?”
How can he avoid being poisoned?
Tang Wei had no idea how to close the mouth that had been unintentionally opened.
Didn’t everyone notice it?
Gwiwangnyong surrounded him, Seven-Step Soul Chasing Sand covered him, and Happy Smoke finally hit him.
It is poisonous enough to turn anyone who uses Dokgong into a handful of blood.
Of course, a master with great internal strength will be able to withstand it or suppress the poisoning to some extent. But how could he possibly be at that level?
“Ptoo!”
Chung Myung raised his head and spit a few times as if her mouth was dry.
“First of all, I need to correct a few things.”
“…….”
“First, the reason why Tang Family doesn’t criticize the world is not that it doesn’t use poison. Because the poison doesn’t work.”
“……what did you say?”
Chung Myung laughed.
He smiles as he watches Tang Wei’s reaction.
‘It takes me back to my childhood.’
– But, despite your name, why don’t you use poison?
– Hyung nim, Aigoo Have you ever heard of the Tang Family’s strongest person in the world?
– No, there isn’t.
– I know. First and foremost, isn’t it a prestigious family on par with Namgungsei? In other words, Namgungsei and Hebei both produce the best people in the world, but Tang Family does not.
– Is it due to the poison?
– Poison is, indeed, a bad thing. Of course, it’s nothing short of a superpower at the right level. They’ll fall down if you just throw a few needles at them and brush them. What do you have to be afraid of?
– Then?
– Who is going to practice their dagger skills when they are winning so easily? They believe that if they only use Tang family poison, they will be invincible, so their nose will grow but their skills will not improve. When they meet a master like you, Hyung nim, everything changes. No matter what I say, the idiots will not understand.
Poison works for a lord. On the other hand, Poison does not work for the absolute master.
To use poison to conquer the world?
‘There’s no way the Tang family could have escaped Heavenly Demon if that were possible!’
It is not only the Heavenly Demon. Tang Family eventually fled because they couldn’t deal with Magyo’s rampage.
How could Magyo drive away the Tang family if they can defeat masters simply by using poison, as Tang Wei claims?
Poison without a cure?
This simply means that there is no antidote available, not that detoxification is impossible.
There must be a way to deal with poison. Chung Myung is aware of two things.
“How- How could you avoid the poison? Even if you hold your breath, it will seep into your skin. The same goes for other poisons!”
The first is what Tang Wei just said.
Using internal strength, you can completely block your surroundings. There’s no reason to get poisoned if you don’t inhale it and don’t let it touch your skin.
The poison on the dagger, however, cannot be avoided. As soon as the poison digs into your body, it seeps into your body.
Absolute experts use internal strength to purify the poison that has entered the body. Experts who have reached the pinnacle of qi operation can use their internal strength to dispel poison.
They don’t require any sort of antidote.
An antidote is a drug that is intended to neutralize poison simply by eating it rather than by internal strength.
What is the cure for those who can withstand being poisoned in the first place?
That is why, even with the weapon of poison, the Tang family failed to become the best.
‘Tang Bo had known this for a long time.’
Tang Bo, who was almost treated as a public figure in the Tang Family, lived and died many times while traveling the world. As a result of this, he realized that relying on poison would not allow him to be the best in the world, and he now stakes everything on his dagger skill alone.
That’s how Anzun Tang Bo was born, the dagger master who used to frighten the world.
“Well, you won’t understand it even if I explain it in many ways, so I’ll just say that I have a peculiar constitution.”
“Peculiar constitution?”
“You’ve gone too far.”
Chung Myung motioned with his hand.
“Continue to the second!”
Chung Myung frowned slightly.
“It’s not that you’re allied with Mount Hua. Mount Hua will form an alliance with Tang Family. This is an important issue, so please remember.”
Chung Myung firmly intercepted the words as Tang Wei opened his mouth with a dumb face.
“Lastly, third.”
“…….”
“Tang Gaju nim saw through this from the beginning and tried to work with Mount Hua, but you are clueless until the end. It must have been hard for you, Tang Gaju nim. To have people like this be fed treat them as human.”
“Y- You punk!”
Chung Myung was holding the sword.
“So, if you have poison that you want to use, go ahead and use it.
“W- Wait. You shouldn’t have increased your internal strength… You already have…”
Tang Wei, who had opened his mouth hastily, flinched for a moment before closing it, was so panicked that he said something he shouldn’t have said.
“Oh, really?”
Chung Myung laughed.
“Do you know what a stupid person looks like?”
“…….”
“They believe they are the only ones who are intelligent. I was expecting this kind of trick even before the duel began. The majority of what you yangban do is self-evident.”
“Are you saying you’ve already gotten the antidote?”
“Oh, you’re always saying stupid things. Your poison has no effect on me.”
Chung Myung grins.
“If you don’t believe me, try again.”
“Even if you are not requesting it, I intend to do so!”
Tang Wei’s sleeve spit Gwiwangnyong once more.
The thick smoke casts a hazy hue over Chung Myung’s surroundings, and instead of occupying a narrower range, the poison’s concentration has been increased.
“It’s no use.”
Chung Myung swung his sword once before pushing Gwiwangnyong away.
Then he walks over to Tang Wei as if nothing has happened.
Tang Wei gave Chung Myung an almost absent-minded look.
He clearly saw with his own eyes that Gwiwangnyong entered through Chung Myung’s nose and mouth, poisoning him and causing his entire body to melt and burn.
But, no matter how you look at it, Chung Myung is no longer poisoned.
“I’m sorry, but this will not work. I told you I had a unique constitution.”
It sounds ridiculous, but it was true.
Chung Myung’s body contains the purest energy on the planet, which is also Tao energy.
Tao energy is originally specialized energy for healing and purification, and no Tao master on the planet has more pure energy than Chung Myung.
This is the Tao energy that could be gathered because it was Chung Myung, who began from the beginning after witnessing the end of its history; poison is irrelevant in the face of that energy.
‘If I had to, I was going to take a Chaos Origin Pill.’
He feels like he wants to stroke the energy in his stomach because it detoxified the poison more clearly than he thought.
It should be…Considering how much effort he put into gathering this, it should be as effective as this!
Chung Myung said with a smile.
“What are you going to do now?
Tang Wei’s expression completely changed at that moment.
His face, which had been distorted by bewilderment and fear until recently, had returned to normal.
“Hahahaha. You don’t even know your condition properly. Just look at your hands and talk!”
“Huh?”
Chung Myung lowered his head and looked at it with his hands spread.
“Huh? What’s wrong with this?”
It’s black from his fingertips to his wrists. Of course, this was a symptom of poisoning.
“I knew you were great. But I guess that great guy couldn’t get the poison out of him either.”
“Wow… what kind of poison is there?”
It’s getting through to him. What a dreadful poison it is.
Tang Wei spoke with a triumphant expression.
“When you go to hell and meet King Yama (King of Hell), tell them that you came to hell because you underestimated the poison of the Tang Family.”
“Oh, you’re so impatient.”
“……What?”
Chung Myung grins.
“It seems that there is a limit to what it can solve on its own. But what about that?”
“The poison isn’t detoxible…….”
It was that exact moment.
Hwaak!
He thought he heard something spouting, and Chung Myung’s hands burst into flames.
At the same time, acrid smoke and flames rise into the air.
“…….”
Chung Myung protruded his tummy.
“If I can’t detox it, I’ll burn it!”
Tang Wei took a couple of steps back without realizing it as he looked at the flame Chung Myung had lit.
“Sa- Samadhi…….Samadhi Dvesha Fire?”
How?
Do you mean that a young man can use the same Samadhi Dvesha Fire that peak masters can?
Tang Wei was taken aback at this point.
Baek Chun sighed deeply as he watched the scene.
“…that guy burns alcohol poison with fire, then burns real Dokgong (Poison Art) with fire.”
‘I hope you don’t set fire to Mount Hua……’
‘Please.’
