Ning Cheng wanted to lure Qiu Tian over. Since Qiu Tian came in time and spoke, Ning Cheng naturally wouldn't continue.
Seeing Ning Cheng stop, Ba Meng put away the Sun Moon Pagoda in time. The Dao Essence Divine Emperor who stopped Ning Cheng could only put away his magic treasure.
"Ning Cheng greets Association Master." Ning Cheng quickly stepped forward and greeted him.
Qiu Tian was not only an expert in the Pill Dao, but he was also the strongest in the Pill Association. At least Ning Cheng couldn't see through Qiu Tian's cultivation. Moreover, Qiu Tian was an upright person, so Ning Cheng had always respected him.
"Pill Sage Ning must have had a hard time coming back. Why did you fight with Elder Dao Peng?" Qiu Tian asked when he saw Ning Cheng stop.
He said that Ning Cheng had a hard time coming back because he knew why Cheng Houtian was poisoned. The person who poisoned Cheng Houtian mainly wanted to lure Ning Cheng back, which meant that Ning Cheng wouldn't have had a safe journey.
The middle-stage Dao Essence Divine Emperor called Dao Peng was Cai Daopeng, the first elder of the Pill Association. His status in the Pill Association was second only to Qiu Tian and Cheng Houtian. When he saw Qiu Tian talking to Ning Cheng in a friendly manner, he felt very uncomfortable.
If someone else dared to fight in the Pill Association, Qiu Tian wouldn't have said a word and would have killed them. Facing Ning Cheng, not only did the Association Master ask for the reason, but he also spoke in such a friendly manner.
Ning Cheng once again cupped his fists and spoke, "Replying to the Association Head, I brought my friend back to help heal Elder Brother Hou Tian, but this Elder Cai Daopeng forcibly stopped me and did not allow my friend to go in to help heal Association Head Cheng."
"You …" Cai Daopeng was furious, but he could only say to Qiu Tian, "Replying to Association Master, when Pill Sage Ning came back, he didn't say that he brought people to help cure Association Master Cheng."
Qiu Tian chuckled, "Since it's a misunderstanding and we're all members of the Pill Association, let's forget it. Let's go in and see Association Master Hou Tian. I've been trying to detoxify the Bone Extending Poison, but I haven't found any other way except for the Sky Extending Bone Extending Pill. I heard that Pill Sage Ning refined the Sky Extending Bone Extending Pill for the Void Star Sect before. Is that true? "
Ning Cheng replied, "It's true …"
"Do you still have any Cloud Replenishing Bone Vein Pills?" Cai Daopeng asked eagerly.
Ning Cheng glanced at Cai Daopeng and spoke, "No."
Cai Daopeng didn't ask any more questions, but he inadvertently heaved a sigh of relief. He did not know that Ning Cheng was referring to the fact that he did not have it on his hand, but there was actually half a bottle in his ring.
The restriction on Cheng Houtian's room opened, but what Ning Cheng did not expect was that there was another person in Cheng Houtian's room. It was a woman that Ning Cheng had never seen before.
But what shocked Ning Cheng even more was Cheng Houtian's state. Cheng Houtian looked even more terrifying than when Ning Cheng first saw Qi Shisanxing. He looked almost like a skeleton, and a purplish-black skeleton at that.
Not to mention the Dao Primordial Dao Runes, even the deathly aura surrounded him.
"Why is Association Master Hou Tian like this?" Ning Cheng asked in horror. That Ancestor Kang could resist for so many years, but how long had it been since Cheng Houtian?
Si Chen Qiu Tian sighed and said, "The Stripe Bone Poison is too powerful. Hou Tian hasn't reached Primordial Chaos Dao Validation, so he can't resist the power of the Stripe Bone Poison. In a few more days, I'm afraid … "
Si Chen Qiu Tian did not continue, but everyone understood the meaning of his words. Cheng Houtian wouldn't be able to hold on for long. In just a few more days, he would most likely fall.
Ning Cheng did not ask again, nor did he take out the Heaven Replenishing Bone Vein Pill for Cheng Houtian to take. Instead, he sighed and did not speak.
After a while, his gaze fell on the woman in Cheng Houtian's room, "Who are you? Why are you here? "
Cai Daopeng immediately replied, "Association Master Cheng's poison is too severe. I brought her here to take care of Association Master Cheng."
Ning Cheng did not ask again and said to Si Chen Qiu Tian, "Association Master, I want to take away Elder Brother Hou Tian to cure the poison. Even if there is only one in a billion chance, I will try my best."
Before Si Chen Qiu Tian could speak, Cai Daopeng's face sank and said, "Association Master Cheng is my Pill Union's Second Association Master. His identity is extremely precious. How can you take him away just because you want to? If something happens, can you bear the responsibility?"
Ning Cheng stared at Cai Daopeng and sneered, "Are you the Dao Primordial Pill Saint or am I the Dao Primordial Pill Saint? If I can't bear the responsibility, can you? Association Master just said that Association Master Cheng won't be able to hold on for long. You and the people you invited have been taking care of Association Master Hou Tian. What about the truth? "
Hearing Ning Cheng compare alchemy to him, Cai Daopeng's face turned even uglier. However, he could not refute it because his alchemy level was not as good as Ning Cheng's.
"Association Master ….." Cai Daopeng, who could not refute, could only look at Si Chen Qiu Tian.
Si Chen Qiu Tian waved his hand and said to Ning Cheng, "Ning Cheng, take Hou Tian away. You and Hou Tian are friends, and you are also a Dao Primordial Pill Saint. I believe you. I have all the auxiliary herbs for refining the Heaven Replenishing Bone Vein Pill. Unfortunately, I only got the Silk Silk Silver Phoenix Grass as the main material. If you need it, you can come to me at any time. No matter what the result is, I think as long as you try your best, Hou Tian will not blame you. After this matter, you have to focus on the Five Realms Pill Competition. "
"Yes, many thanks, Association Master. Once I get the rest of the Dao Fruits, I will come to trouble Association Master. "Ning Cheng said with gratitude.
In any case, Si Chen Qiu Tian sincerely wanted to help Cheng Houtian. It's just that the materials for refining the Heaven Replenishing Bone Vein Pill were a bit difficult to obtain.
Since the Association Head had agreed, Cai Daopeng could only watch Ning Cheng leave with Cheng Houtian with a black face. Ning Cheng had a Dao Essence powerhouse by his side. Even if he was at the middle-stage Dao Essence Realm, he would not dare to do anything to Ning Cheng.
"Brother Ning Cheng, I think there's something wrong with that Pill Association Elder." After leaving the Pill Association, Ba Meng spoke up.
Ning Cheng sneered, "There must be something wrong with him. Not only him, but the woman who took care of Elder Brother Hou Tian also has some problems. Elder Brother Hou Tian's room does not have a healing array, but a monitoring array. Does he think I don't understand the Dao of Arrays? "
… …
"Brother Ning, you're back?" Jian Sanshan saw Ning Cheng coming to his cave and immediately came out to greet him with joy.
"Senior Apprentice Brother …." Wu Qihong's surprised voice came out, and a moment later, Xin Xiu also came out.
Ning Cheng asked in doubt, "Since you two are here, what about the Heaven Essence Sacred City's Pill House? Did you hire someone to look after it? "
Xin Xiu and Wu Qihong lowered their heads with guilt written all over their faces.
Jian Sanshan sighed and said, "It's because I'm too weak to protect the Pill House. When I heard that Association Master Sheng got poisoned by the Pattern Bone Poison, I knew that it might have come for you. Therefore, I asked Junior Apprentice Sister Xin and Junior Apprentice Brother Qihong not to tell you about it. "
Ning Cheng immediately understood. He nodded and did not ask about this matter again. Instead, he introduced Ba Meng to everyone. Then he held up the chair in his hand and said, "This is Association Master Cheng. Let's go in. I want to heal Association Master Cheng."
Ning Cheng had too many eyes in the rest stops, so he chose to come to Jian Sanshan's cave. He had helped Jian Sanshan rearrange the defensive array in his cave, which made it much safer than some rest stops.
… …
In a room with restrictions, Ning Cheng took out a Sky Extending Mark Bone Pill and put it into Cheng Houtian's mouth. Back then, Ancestor Kang had used the Sky Extending Mark Bone Pill to detoxify the poison, but it had taken him a few hours. But now, in just an incense stick worth of time, a black mist overflowed from the top of Cheng Houtian's head. Then, drops of black Pattern Bone Poison dripped from his body and fell into the jade bottle prepared by Ning Cheng.
Ning Cheng's restrictions blocked the overflowing poisonous mist, and not even a little bit of it leaked out.
Another hour passed, and the blackish-purple colour on Cheng Houtian's body slowly disappeared. Even his corporeal body slowly returned to normal. Cheng Houtian opened his eyes, nodded to Ning Cheng, and closed his eyes again.
A heaven-and-earth Dao Charm Aura began to condense around Cheng Houtian. Seeing this, Ning Cheng knew that Cheng Houtian was fine. He walked out of the room with Ba Meng and the others, leaving Cheng Houtian alone to detoxify.
"Junior Apprentice Sister Xin Xiu, can you tell us what happened to our Pill House?" Ning Cheng didn't have the time to ask Xin Xiu until now.
In fact, Xin Xiu and Wu Qihong were fine, which made Ning Cheng feel relieved. As long as they were fine, everything else was secondary.
Without waiting for Xin Xiu to speak, Jian Sanshan spoke up, "I'm afraid this matter has nothing to do with them. After Association Master Sheng was poisoned, someone came to our Pill House to sell Falling Scar Fruits ….."
"You said that someone came to our Pill House to sell Falling Scar Fruits?" Ning Cheng asked in confusion. Falling Scar Fruits were a Dao Fruit that people would snatch from anywhere. Why would someone come to a Pill House to sell it?
"Yes." Jian Sanshan nodded, "After that person took out the Falling Scar Fruits, the people in Pill House immediately turned green with envy and started to snatch the Falling Scar Fruits ….."
Ning Cheng spoke up with a gloomy expression, "I understand now. Did they snatch away the rest of the medicinal pills in the Pill Pavilion while snatching the Falling Scar Fruit, and then turn the Pill Pavilion into a mess? In the end, these people all disappeared? "
Jian Sanshan sighed, "That's it. At that time, Xin Xiu, who was in Pill House, was seriously injured. Fortunately, I arrived in time and saved Xin Xiu. I guess that this matter and the poisoning of Association Master Sheng were all done to lure you back. "
"Yes, this time, they indeed came for you." Cheng Houtian's voice came out in time. Although he still looked a little dispirited, he no longer had the aura of the Tattoo Bone Poison.
"Elder Brother Houtian, you're fine." Ning Cheng stood up and spoke with joy.
Cheng Houtian nodded, "Brother Ning Cheng, I have to thank you this time. Fortunately, you said that there was no Heaven Extending Scar Bone Pill in the Pill House. If you had told Cai Daopeng that there was a Heaven Extending Scar Bone Pill, I'm afraid I wouldn't have had the chance to come here. "
"You mean …." Ning Cheng's eyes suddenly flashed with killing intent. Cai Daopeng had stopped him, and he had always thought that it was because of his personal grievances with Cheng Houtian. But if Cai Daopeng was the culprit behind the Tattoo Bone Poison, then don't blame him for being impolite. A mere Cai Daopeng didn't have the qualifications to covet his things.
Cheng Houtian spoke up with a solemn expression, "It shouldn't be just Cai Daopeng. Cai Daopeng and I have some conflicts, but he wouldn't go so far as to poison me. But this time, he must have participated in it. I, Cheng Houtian, have reached the Dao Essence Realm for many years and have seen all kinds of storms. Humph! If you want my life, then you'll have to exchange it with your life. "
