Iron Snake was now very relaxed. In fact, Zhao Hai wasn't the first cultivator he had served. Girls from servant clans were sixteen years old and boys from fifteen years old, so they had to go to the sect to serve cultivators. Iron Snake, on the other hand, had to learn how to serve cultivators from the age of five.
Today, Tie She was twenty-two years old. He had already served three cultivators, and all three of them were Outer Sect disciples. Without exception, all of them had died.
In the Poison Dragon Sect, the mortality rate of Outer Sect disciples was very high. Aside from the three month newcomer period, as long as they went out to do missions, it was very easy for casualties to occur. Many Outer Sect disciples died when they went out to do missions. Although the Poison Dragon Sect wouldn't send anyone to follow a disciple who went out to do a mission, if the disciple didn't return to the sect within three months after going out to do a mission, even if the disciple died, his room would be assigned to a newcomer. His servants would also be reassigned. This had always been the rule of the Poison Dragon Sect.
Tie She had served three Outer Sect disciples in succession. The longest one he had served was four years. That disciple had reached the peak of Qi Refinement Twelfth Stage and was about to enter the Qi Refinement Spirit Realm. However, during a mission, he still died outside.
Outsiders might not know how that cultivator died, but Tie She was very clear. That cultivator's death was most likely caused by an Inner Sect disciple. When that cultivator first entered the Poison Dragon Sect, he was only a Qi Refinement Sixth Order cultivator and was only fourteen years old. When Tie She served him for four years, he saw that this Qi Refinement Sixth Order cultivator used only four years to reach the Qi Refinement Twelfth Order. That person's cultivation speed couldn't be described as slow. It wouldn't be an exaggeration to describe him as a genius.
But it was precisely because of this that that person became arrogant and didn't put anyone in his eyes. Once, he even had a conflict with an Inner Sect disciple. He even said that as long as he entered the Inner Sect, he would definitely teach that Inner Sect disciple a lesson. After this breakthrough, less than three months later, he went out to do a mission and didn't return. So, Tie She believed that this matter must be the doing of that Inner Sect disciple.
However, he didn't say anything because this matter had nothing to do with him. The life and death of a cultivator didn't have much to do with a servant. A servant would always stay in the sect and wouldn't have the chance to leave for the rest of their lives. They would serve one cultivator after another until the cultivator's death.
Generally, servants would retire at around seventy years old unless they had a very good relationship with their master. Otherwise, when they reached seventy years old, the sect would let them retire and let them retire at home. In this regard, the Poison Dragon Sect did a good job.
It was precisely because of this that the Poison Dragon Sect had many servant clans. Sometimes, one or two genius disciples would emerge from these servant clans. These genius disciples would be prioritized by the Poison Dragon Sect to be nurtured in the sect. As long as such a disciple appeared, the servant clan would break away from the ranks of the servants. In the future, the people of the servant clan would no longer need to serve others.
However, there weren't many such families. Even if there were, they would have already left the Poison Dragon Sect and moved to a city controlled by the Poison Dragon Sect.
This time, Iron Snake was arranged to serve Zhao Hai. He didn't have any objections. In any case, the person he served was already dead. Moreover, he was a servant and didn't have the right to choose.
But in fact, every time a new master came, Iron Snake and the others would be scared witless. Although the Poison Dragon Sect had a rule that servants couldn't be killed, there were still a lot of servants killed in the sect every year. If a master with a bad temper killed one of your servants and casually found an excuse, then you wouldn't be able to do anything.
Iron Snake was very worried because he knew that Zhao Hai's group were rogue cultivators recruited by the sect in order to expand their strength. These rogue cultivators didn't have a good reputation in the sect. They were almost equal to murder and arson. Because of this, Iron Snake and the others were very worried. They were afraid that they would meet a master who would kill. If that was the case, then they would be done for.
However, ever since Iron Snake followed Zhao Hai, he found that this master was very easy to serve. He didn't have any orders. Besides cleaning the room and eating three meals a day, there was nothing else to do. Every day, Zhao Hai would cultivate and refine poisons. Iron Snake absolutely wouldn't be allowed to enter his seclusion room and poison refining room. In fact, even if he was allowed to enter, Iron Snake didn't want to. This was because the poisons refined by the disciples of the Poison Dragon Sect were very strange. If you go in and clean up something, you might get poisoned. This kind of thing wasn't uncommon in the Poison Dragon Sect.
There was a rule in the Poison Dragon Sect. As long as a disciple was able to refine a poison that the sect didn't have and had a mature formula and refining process, they would be able to obtain a large amount of contribution points from the sect. To an outer sect disciple, this was a huge attraction.
However, new poisons weren't easy to refine. Different poisons had different medicinal properties. It wasn't possible to combine all kinds of poisons together to create the world's strongest poison. That was impossible. Every poison had different medicinal properties. If you mix them together, then there was a chance that the medicinal properties would clash and reduce the toxicity. Moreover, mixing poisons together was very dangerous. This was because the poisons you mixed together could poison yourself. And if you don't have any antidotes, then it was the same as courting death.
Because of this, every time the Poison Dragon Sect produced a poison formula with excellent effects, a complete formula, and a complete refining process, they would receive a lot of rewards from the Poison Dragon Sect.
Of course, Zhao knew about this, but his method of refining poisons was different from other people. If other people wanted to refine poisons, they would need to experiment with their own hands. After refining the poisons, they wouldn't need to do some animal trials to observe the properties of the poisons.
However, Zhao Hai didn't need to do this. Before refining the poisons, he would use the computer to make a simulation. After deducing all kinds of things, he would then test them. After refining the poisons, he could then place them on the machine and analyze them. He didn't even need to test them on animals to know the medicinal properties. This was something that others couldn't compare to.
Additionally, Zhao Hai had a lot of medicinal materials in his hands, so he could test them. Not only poisons, but also ordinary medicinal materials. This was because he had a lot of medicinal materials. In the past, these medicinal materials could only be stored in the Space's warehouse, turning into a pile of meaningless numbers. But now, these medicinal materials weren't just numbers. Zhao Hai could take these medicinal materials and refine them into various medicines, antidotes, poisons, and all kinds of other medicines.
Zhao Hai was actually very satisfied with this situation. In the past, he didn't need a lot of pills because his cultivation speed was already very fast. He didn't need any pills at all. Moreover, ordinary pills were also useless to him. Because of this, Zhao Hai didn't use any pills for a long time. The medicinal materials could only be piled up in the warehouse.
But now, things were different. The appearance of the Poison Scripture was tantamount to opening a door for Zhao Hai. Zhao Hai didn't think that poisons could be used in this way.
It could spread through the air, poison the water, and even poison the spirit qi during a fight. It could break a person's barrier, and it could even be used as a magical weapon to attack. These kinds of poisons were really too magical.
Zhao Hai had never thought of using poison as a magic tool. In his opinion, medicine was medicine, so how could it be used as a magic tool? But after reading the Poison Scripture, he understood that his previous thinking was too simple. He also found out that he had forgotten one thing. For a cultivator, whether it was simply dividing materials into medicinal herbs, refining materials, or formation materials, although this division would make a cultivator's cultivation very convenient, at the same time, this division would also limit the cultivator's abilities.
Couldn't medicinal materials be used as other materials? Obviously, this wasn't the case. The reason why medicinal materials were called medicinal materials was because they had certain attributes. However, this didn't mean that medicinal materials couldn't be used as other materials.
For example, if you wanted to refine a flying sword, the flying sword itself was very ordinary. But if you want to make it extraordinary, how can you make it extraordinary? You can add some special materials inside, such as wood attributed flying swords. You can even add wood attributed materials inside the flying sword. And among these materials, many of them are plants. If you add a poisonous plant to a flying sword, then when the flying sword is refined, wouldn't that poison be present inside the flying sword? The possibility of this was very high.
Because of the Poison Scripture, Zhao Hai no longer treated medicinal materials as ordinary materials. Instead, he treated them as medicinal materials. Not only medicinal materials, but also animals. Just like the Poison Dragon Sect's Poison Dragon Snake.
Zhao Hai became an Outer Disciple of the Poison Dragon Sect. And among the benefits that Outer Disciples of the Poison Dragon Sect received, there was a Poison Dragon Snake. The snake that Zhao Hai was given was a breed that was cultivated by the Poison Dragon Sect. It was said that it was a breed that was slowly crossbred with more than a dozen kinds of snakes. This snake was only a meter long and was as thick as a walnut. However, its body was very tough, making it difficult for swords to injure it. Moreover, it was also poisonous. Most importantly, this poisonous snake was very strong. Although it was only a meter long, if it was entangled, then even a tiger wouldn't be able to break free.
This snake was refined by the Poison Dragon Sect, so its toxicity was very strong. Moreover, as long as there was enough food, its growth rate would be very fast. In the end, it could even grow into a giant python.
In addition to obtaining this poisonous snake, Zhao Hai also obtained the method to refine it. This poisonous snake could be refined many times, making it stronger.
The method to refine a poisonous snake was naturally different from refining artifacts. Refining artifacts required fire, but refining a poisonous snake couldn't use fire unless you want to roast a snake. In fact, the refining of a poisonous snake was very simple. You just have to feed the snake with poison and then use your spiritual qi to help the snake digest and absorb the poison. This way, the snake would become even more venomous.
Naturally, you can also feed the poisonous snake the refined poison. However, if you do that, the poisonous snake might not be able to withstand the strength of the medicine and would be poisoned to death.
All cultivators who entered the Poison Dragon Sect had three months to cultivate in peace. Because of this, the sect wouldn't give them any missions. However, after three months, they would begin to work as mission officers. One month, they would be given five first-class missions. This was the simplest. If you don't do them, the missions would continue to accumulate. If you didn't go into seclusion and didn't do any missions for five years, then you would be expelled from the sect. Naturally, this expulsion wouldn't be as simple as just throwing you out. Instead, they would cripple your cultivation and kick you out. You can't even spread the poison formulas you learned in the Poison Dragon Sect. Otherwise, the Poison Dragon Sect would capture you and turn you into a medicine slave. At that time, you would suffer a fate worse than death.
The Poison Dragon Sect had so called medicine slaves. These medicine slaves were people that the Poison Dragon Sect used to conduct experiments on medicine. The people of the Poison Dragon Sect would feed them all kinds of poisons and then observe their reaction after being poisoned. In order to better observe their reaction after being poisoned, they would also feed them a certain amount of antidotes so that they wouldn't die. This made the medicine slaves incomparably painful. They wouldn't even be able to commit suicide if they wanted to.
As for the medicine slaves of the Poison Dragon Sect, there was only one way to obtain them. That was to offend the Poison Dragon Sect. The Poison Dragon Sect would capture them and turn them into medicine slaves. Naturally, if you resist too fiercely and end up dying, then you would be considered lucky. This was because dying was far more comfortable than becoming a poison slave. However, your corpse would be brought back to the Poison Dragon Sect and then refined into a Poison Corpse.
Although the Poison Dragon Sect mainly used poison, one shouldn't forget that they were also a Devil Sect. They didn't only use poison, they were also experts in refining Poison Corpses. The Poison Dragon Sect's refined Poison Corpses were even better than the Poison Corpses refined by other Devil Sects. The Poison Dragon Sect also liked to refine Poison Corpses as their weapons. A lot of Poison Dragon Sect disciples would refine Poison Corpses to help them in battle if their snake battle pet died in battle. This was because the corpse itself contained corpse poison, and corpse poison was a very difficult poison to deal with. After being refined by the Poison Dragon Sect, the poison would be even stronger and the attack power would be even greater. Because of this, the Poison Dragon Sect's Poison Corpses were very famous in the Sword Spirit World.
Zhao Hai wanted to use these three months to improve his fighting strength. He wanted to refine more poisons in order to increase his fighting strength. This was because he couldn't use his Body Cultivation Method or the Iron Buddha Lotus Body in the Poison Dragon Sect. Because of this, his fighting strength would be greatly affected. Because of this, he needed to refine all kinds of poisons as soon as possible. This way, not only would he be able to improve his fighting strength, but also his Curse Technique.
