Nie Tian showed a troubled expression. Without the Redbud Flowing Orchid, the Five-Poison Blood Infant might not survive more than five days.
After leaving the Five Poison Pool, the Five-Poison Blood Infant could survive for half a month at most. The Five-Poison Blood Infant would be away from Desolate Heaven City for about ten days. Hence, Nie Tian only had five days left.
Xiao Chen needed to find a way to restrain the Five-Poison Qi within five days.
The Redbud Flowing Orchid was the core of the five herbs, so it was essential.
"Elder Nie, can you tell me what you need these herbs for?" Meng Fanchen asked when he saw Nie Tian's troubled expression, as if he was hesitating about something.
Originally, Nie Tian did not want to tell Meng Fanchen about the Five-Poison Blood Infant. However, since Meng Fanchen asked, he did not want to hide it. Hence, he told the truth. Finally, he said, "I want this Five-Poison Blood Infant to live. Furthermore, I want it to live like a normal person. The five herbs earlier can restrain the Five-Poison Qi. The Redbud Flowing Orchid is essential. "
After Meng Fanchen heard Nie Tian's explanation, his expression turned slightly stiff. He had not expected Nie Tian to have a Five-Poison Blood Infant.
Although Meng Fanchen did not know what the Five-Poison Blood Infant looked like, based on Nie Tian's explanation, it was something horrifying.
There was one more thing that Nie Tian did not tell Meng Fanchen: he already controlled Wu Feng.
Nie Tian did not kill Wu Feng because he wanted to use him to uncover the Ling Xuan Heaven Pavilion's plot. Once he found out the Ling Xuan Heaven Pavilion's true goal, Wu Feng would lose his value. Then, Nie Tian would not hesitate to kill him.
Nie Tian would not show mercy to people like Wu Feng.
"Elder Nie Tian, can I take a look at the Five-Poison Blood Infant?" Meng Fanchen asked after hesitating for a long time.
"Sure." Nie Tian saw that Meng Fanchen seemed to have something to say but did not say it.
The two did not delay, leaving the Alchemist Association and heading for Gu Yi's residence.
After a while, Nie Tian and Meng Fanchen arrived at the Gu Residence.
The guards of the Gu Residence were all Martial Pill Palace guards. Naturally, they recognized Meng Fanchen and Nie Tian, so they let them pass.
Gu Yi and the others were in the Gu Residence's great hall. When they saw Nie Tian and Meng Fanchen from afar, they came out to welcome them.
"Brother Nie, you have been in Tranquil City for such a long time, old brother was afraid that something might have happened to you." Gu Yi was very happy to see Nie Tian, and he was filled with cordiality.
Nie Tian faintly smiled and said, "I've made Big Brother Gu worry."
Everyone chatted and laughed as they entered the main hall and took their seats.
"President Meng, I just saw Temple Master Xin. Did something happen?" Yang Kai asked when he saw Meng Fan Chen's solemn expression.
Meng Fanchen nodded and briefly explained what had happened to Huo Yuan. He didn't mention Wu Feng. After all, his sect was unfortunate, and it wasn't good to let too many people know about it.
Gu Yi, Yang Kai, Ye Linyun, and the others all knew Huo Yuan and couldn't help feeling a bit sad.
Meng Fan Chen didn't say anything more. Then, he looked at Nie Tian.
Nie Tian nodded and said to Qiu Shan, "Qiu Shan, open the thing on your back."
Qiu Shan had already returned to the Gu Residence a long time ago. Mo Tai and Mo Ruxi had already settled down. It was very safe for them to stay in the Gu Residence.
Qiu Shan had been carrying the Five Poison Coffin on his back and covered it with an azure cloth, preventing others from seeing it.
Then, he lifted the azure cloth, and the Five Poison Coffin appeared before everyone.
"This is …" Although Gu Yi and the others saw that Qiu Shan was carrying something on his back and was giving off a faint fluctuation of poison gas, they didn't pay much attention to it. However, when they saw that it was a coffin, they couldn't help but be horrified.
"Open it," Nie Tian said to Qiu Shan, nodding as he scanned the crowd.
Qiu Shan no longer held back. He took a deep breath and directly opened the Five Poison Coffin.
"Ah!" The instant the coffin opened, the Five Poison Blood Infant let out a cry of pleasant surprise, and its huge eyes opened wide.
"Hiss!" When everyone saw the thing in the coffin, they all sucked in a breath of cold air. Their expressions froze, and they were horrified.
The Five Poison Blood Infant was only the size of an infant. It looked like an infant, but it looked extremely strange. Its limbs were like sharp claws, and its head was huge with pointy ears. Dark black patterns covered its entire body, giving off a feeling of hostility.
The Five Poison Blood Infant's entire body was a bloody mess. There was no intact skin on its body, and it looked very bloody.
"This is the Five Poison Blood Infant!" Meng Fanchen's stiff expression eased up slightly after ten-odd seconds, and he exclaimed in shock.
"Yes." Nie Tian nodded.
"Ah!" Just as everyone observed the Five Poison Blood Infant, its huge eyes flickered as though it was observing everyone. It wanted to move its limbs, but its entire body was restrained by the sword intent, unable to move. Then, it started crying. Its voice was no different from an ordinary infant's, but it sounded very miserable.
"Wu Feng!" Meng Fanchen's body trembled as he shouted the name. Then, he roared furiously, "Beast!"
The others showed similarly sorrowful expressions, suppressing their rage.
Whoever created the Five Poison Blood Infant was worse than a pig or a dog!
"Qiu Shan." Nie Tian glanced at Qiu Shan, and the latter immediately closed the coffin.
After a long time, the atmosphere in the hall returned to normal.
Nie Tian explained the situation of the Five Poison Blood Infant, and he emphasized, "The Redbud Orchid is the core of the five herbs, and it's indispensable. So, if anyone has it, or knows where it can be found, you must tell me. I must get it! "
Back at the Alchemist Guild, Meng Fanchen seemed to know where the Redbud Orchid was, but he didn't want to say it.
"Elder Nie, what will happen to the Five Poison Blood Infant if we don't have the Redbud Orchid?" Meng Fanchen asked with a frown.
"It won't live for more than five days," Nie Tian answered honestly.
"Five days." Meng Fanchen pondered, and his expression became cautious. After thinking for a long time, he finally said, "There's a place that might have the Redbud Orchid."
"Where?" Nie Tian blurted out. No matter where it was, he must get it.
"President Meng, you can't be talking about …" Gu Yi and Yang Kai thought of something at the same time, and their expressions became tense.
Meng Fanchen nodded and said two words, "The Black Market!"
"The Black Market?" Nie Tian's eyes narrowed, and he asked in surprise, "Xu Mi Spirit Capital also has a Black Market?"
The Black Market. Nie Tian was no stranger to this place. He had been to Blue Cloud City's Black Market, and met Gu Yi there.
But he didn't expect that Xu Mi Spirit Capital also had a Black Market!
Generally speaking, the Black Market was not controlled by the orthodox forces, and was usually a forbidden area for ordinary people.
For example, Blue Cloud City's Black Market. Even the Blue Cloud Emperor had to tuck his tail between his legs wherever he went.
"En." Meng Fanchen nodded, and said, "The Black Market is a huge organization that no one knows about. There are Black Markets in every city in the four domains. It is said that all Black Markets are controlled by one force, but no one knows who this force is. "
