"What?"
In the dark space, the cold voice was taken aback after seeing that the toxicity invading Qin Chen's source had no effect at all.
"What is this? This kid possesses an unprecedented terrifying power within his body. I can almost sense the origin of the Heavenly Realm. What kind of treasure is this?"
The cold voice was filled with astonishment and excitement.
"This child, his background is definitely extraordinary. A Venerable level soul secret technique, a powerful physique, remarkable alchemical skills, an understanding of the Dao, and the terrifying treasure contained within him—it's simply impeccable."
"Let's see how this kid performs next."
Buzz!
After a hundred breaths, neither too long nor too short, the endless poison array disappeared. Qin Chen felt a sensation of spatial folding, and his figure vanished once again in the stone chamber. When Qin Chen successfully passed the poison array's assessment, on the other side, Huo Mo Dan Sheng also successfully passed the poison array's test. As a member of the Plant Demon Clan, his resistance to poison far exceeded that of ordinary human martial artists. The Plant Demon Clan is rumored to have evolved from a spirit herb that turned into a demon at the time of the world's creation.
With dual characteristics of plants and demons, their resistance to poison is naturally superior to anyone else.
"Puff!" In another stone chamber, Mo Li spat out a mouthful of blood, his body on the verge of collapse. Although he possessed the bloodline and power of both the human and demon clans, his resistance to poison was far inferior to that of Qin Chen and Huo Mo Dan Sheng. His body was riddled with sores, barely clinging to life.
However, within his body, there was a powerful demonic force protecting him, preventing him from being completely corroded. "Hmm? This child is merely at the peak of the initial stage of the Saint Master realm, yet he has managed to withstand the invasion of my poison array. Although he is far from being on par with that human kid, there are merits to him. Additionally, it seems that there is a powerful demonic force within him. Is he a descendant of some top-tier powerhouse from the Demon Tribe?"
The cold voice murmured.
"Fine, let's consider this as him passing. Let's see how he performs next."
Buzz!
The poison array, which had long reached a hundred breaths, suddenly emitted a beam of light for teleportation, and Mo Li also disappeared from the stone chamber.
Qin Chen felt a darkness before his eyes as he stood on the teleportation array. Once he stabilized his figure, he turned to survey his surroundings, shaking his head in silence: "Here we go again."
This was yet another stone chamber. How many trials must one go through to inherit the legacy of this alchemical powerhouse? The previous three checkpoints were all incredibly terrifying and could pose a threat to late-stage Saint Masters. A single misstep could endanger even Qin Chen. Is this alchemical powerhouse truly seeking a successor rather than slaughtering others?
However, since he had already come this far, Qin Chen naturally would not retreat, nor could he retreat. He stepped several paces to the center of the stone chamber.
In the center of this stone chamber stood a stone platform, upon which were three distinctly shaped medicinal herbs. Judging from the aura emitted by these herbs, they were all incredibly potent poisons, roughly equivalent to mid-grade Saint Master level.
Mid-grade Saint Master level poisons are not of high quality, but it was surprising that all three of these herbs were poisonous.
It seems this alchemical powerhouse truly is entering the Dao through poison. "Young man, congratulations on arriving at the fourth trial. The fourth trial assesses your ability to refine medicinal liquids. As you can see, the three herbs before you are all poisonous. You must refine these three herbs to a purity of over ninety-nine and merge the medicinal liquids into the groove on the stone platform before you. If the fusion is successful, you will pass the assessment."
