The two of them stopped in the distance. Ming Dong stared at the mountain range shrouded in pink smoke as he said sternly, "The feeling of being summoned is coming from the mountain range. However, it's very difficult to get in because of the smoke. Although I have an antidote, I don't know if it'll be able to fend off the smoke up ahead."
Jianchen smiled meaningfully. He patted Ming Dong's shoulder and said, "Don't worry. Just the smoke won't be able to stop us. Let's go in."
"Alright then. Let's see if we can make it in first." With that, Ming Dong took out a small bottle from his Space Belt. He poured out a fragrant pill and swallowed it before passing another one to Jian Chen.
Jianchen refused to take the antidote, "I don't need this. The smoke can't hurt me."
Although Ming Dong was very confused as to why Jianchen was not afraid of the smoke, he knew that it was definitely Jianchen's secret, so he did not ask. He said nothing more and followed Jianchen into the smoke-shrouded mountain range.
As soon as they were twenty meters away from the smoke, Ming Dong's face suddenly changed. Black blood began to flow from the corner of his mouth.
Ming Dong immediately took a few steps back and took out a small white jade bottle from his spatial belt. He poured out a black pill from it and hesitated for a moment before swallowing it with a pained expression.
Only after consuming the black pill did Ming Dong's complexion improve slightly. He stared at the pink smoke up ahead sternly and said, "The smoke here is far too poisonous. The deeper we go, the more poisonous it gets. I've already taken the best antidote, but it'll probably only allow me to go fifty meters forward. We won't be able to make it in at all."
Jian Chen did not say anything. He took out an empty water bottle from his spatial belt and cut his wrist. He dripped some blood into the bottle.
"Jianchen, what are you doing?" Ming Dong was confused as he looked at Jianchen in confusion.
Jianchen treated the wound on his wrist simply before handing the bottle of blood to Ming Dong. He said, "My blood is the best antidote. Drink it."
Ming Dong stared at Jianchen in shock. He asked in surprise, "What did you say? Did I hear wrong? Your blood is the best antidote? How is that possible? "Ming Dong felt like he had discovered a new continent.
Jianchen smiled when he saw Ming Dong's shock. He said, "I've already cultivated a body that's immune to all poisons. There are only a few poisons in the world that can harm me."
"A body that's immune to all poisons? Is there such a physique in the world? "Ming Dong was confused and doubtful. Clearly, he didn't know anything about the Poison Impenetrable Physique.
"Drink it. That way, we'll be able to pass through this area with ease," Jianchen did not explain too much.
"Alright, let me see if your blood has such wondrous effects," Ming Dong smiled as he accepted the bottle from Jianchen. He raised his head and drank all the blood in it. As soon as the blood entered his stomach, a strange energy rapidly spread through his limbs and bones, clearing away all the remaining poisons in Ming Dong's body.
Ming Dong was immediately moved when he sensed the changes in his body. He sighed, "Jianchen, your blood really can cure all poisons. It's several times more effective than the best and most expensive antidote pill I bought. I guarantee that if you sell your blood, you'll be able to get an astronomical price."
Jianchen had no idea how to react to that. "Alright, let's hurry on our way!"
After drinking Jianchen's blood, the poisonous smoke was unable to do anything to him as expected. With Jianchen at the front and Ming Dong at the back, they slowly made their way into the depths of the mountain range.
The poisonous smoke in the depths of the mountain range grew thicker and thicker. In the end, even their vision was greatly affected. Visibility was extremely low. As they ventured deeper, the poisonous smoke became more and more poisonous. It was over a dozen times more poisonous than outside, but it was still unable to affect Jianchen and Ming Dong. This made Ming Dong sigh in amazement at the wondrous effects of Jianchen's blood more than once. .
Under the guidance of the summoning force, the two of them advanced in a straight line through the mountain range. They would occasionally encounter a few poisonous magical beasts, but they were all dealt with easily by Jianchen.
After walking through the smoke-shrouded mountain range for six hours, Jianchen and Ming Dong finally emerged from the range of the poisonous smoke. An extremely elegant valley appeared before them. It was covered in green plants that radiated with vitality. It was very different from the barren mountain range outside.
Suddenly, Ming Dong's face became stern. He said with a heavy voice, "Oh no, the summoning force has suddenly vanished. I can't feel it anymore."
Jianchen was alarmed by that. This was not a good sign. He studied the valley and after a while, he said, "Let's look around here. I think the intent that summoned you came from here."
Ming Dong thought about it and found it very reasonable. He said, "Alright, let's look around first and see if we can find anything."
Afterwards, Jianchen and Ming Dong began to wander around the small valley that was filled with vitality. They wanted to see if they could find anything suspicious.
"Jianchen, come over here. There's something here." Suddenly, Ming Dong's voice rang out in the distance.
Jian Chen immediately hurried over when he heard that. He discovered that there was a strange formation before Ming Dong. It flickered with multicolored light as it gave off weak pulses of energy.
"It's a Space Gate." A sliver of surprise appeared in Jianchen's eyes. He never thought that there would actually be a Space Gate hidden in the smoke-shrouded barren mountain range.
The two of them stared at the Space Gate for a while before Ming Dong suggested, "Why don't we go over and take a look?"
Jian Chen hesitated slightly before agreeing to Ming Dong's suggestion in the end. Afterwards, Jianchen placed five Class 5 Monster Cores around the Space Gate as energy to activate it. Once the Space Gate formed, the two of them directly stepped through it.
After passing through the Space Gate, what appeared before their eyes was a world filled with the fragrance of flowers and birds. Exotic flowers and herbs were planted everywhere. A faint fragrance of flowers permeated the air, spreading in all directions along with the air. Just taking a breath would make one feel refreshed, relaxed and happy.
Suddenly, Jian Chen seemed to sense something. He abruptly raised his head and his eyes widened. He was so shocked that he could not close his mouth.
A huge palace hovered a hundred meters in the air. It was extraordinarily majestic, like a divine hall that would never appear in the world. It did not rely on any external objects, just hovering in the air by itself. So many people were in disbelief. It was a shocking sight.
Ming Dong discovered the divine hall very soon as well. He immediately reacted the same way as Jianchen. His eyes widened as disbelief flooded his face.
An old man in white robes descended from the sky, landing before Jianchen and Ming Dong. The old man had white hair and a ruddy complexion. His white hair was tied into a small bun on his head and secured with an ancient wooden hairpin. His entire body exuded an otherworldly aura, as if he really was an immortal.
The old man smiled at Jianchen and Ming Dong. He said, "Esteemed guests, our hall master has been waiting for quite some time already. Allow me to take you up." The old man did not give Jianchen and Jianchen any time to speak. With a wave of his hand, an invisible ball of energy enveloped the two of them. The old man quickly brought them to the hovering divine hall.
Up until now, Jianchen and Ming Dong were still at a loss. By the time they returned to their senses, the old man had already brought them to the divine hall, where they stood before the entrance.
"Esteemed guests, please follow me. I'll take you to see the hall master." With that, the old man made his way into the divine hall.
"Hold on, senior. What's going on?" Jian Chen asked in a hurry. They were completely confused by the old man's words, unable to make heads or tails of it.
"I'm only here on the orders of the Palace Lord to welcome our esteemed guests. I don't know anything else. You can ask the Palace Lord about the specifics after you see him," the old man replied with a smile. He was kind and amiable, just like a kind grandfather.
"Senior, have you received the wrong people? We're probably not the esteemed guests you speak of," Ming Dong said worriedly. Ming Dong said worriedly from behind. That mysterious temple master was definitely the master of this temple. It was obvious that he was very powerful. If the powerful temple master found out that they were not the honored guests he had mentioned, who knew what would happen to them.
The old man at the front chuckled when he heard Ming Dong's words. "Who do you think the hall master is? The hall master is extremely resourceful. Why would he make such a small mistake? Alright, stop asking. Once you see the hall master, he'll naturally answer your questions. There are some things that I don't have the right to tell you."
Jianchen and Ming Dong followed behind the old man uneasily. At the same time, they constantly studied the divine hall. The divine hall was extremely large, and every inch of it pulsed with powerful energy. It was as if the entire divine hall had been constructed from extremely pure energy.
There were many halls within the divine hall, but it was extremely quiet. The surroundings were completely silent. There was not a single person in sight. They seemed to be the only people in the large divine hall.
Jianchen and Ming Dong passed through the halls before stopping before a huge hall in the centre. Afterwards, the old man bowed politely at the closed door and said, "Hall master, the esteemed guests have been brought here."
"You can leave!" An ethereal voice came from within the hall. From the voice, one could tell that it was a man's voice.
"Yes, hall master!" The old man bowed politely before leaving. Only Jianchen and Ming Dong remained where they were, at a loss for what to do.
"Come in, the two of you." The illusory voice once again rang out from within the hall. Following this voice, the tightly shut doors of the hall slowly and silently opened.
