No, it’s not a sll!
The reason for the odd sensation was because this “sll” was actually a feeling.
Zhou Heng noticed that his strength was slowly fading, and even his Inner Qi showed a slight, imperceptible tendency to beco dormant. At first, it didn’t seem like much, but over ti, it would definitely lead to a complete loss of strength, making him weak all over, and even moving would be difficult.
Poison gas?!
Colorless, shapeless, tasteless, it sapped a person’s strength and softened muscles and bones. If it hadn’t been for his Insight 1 as a basic attribute bonus, he would likely have had just as much difficulty in detecting it… Was this the “Formless Qi Dispersal Powder” that the Three Poison Sect sold to Wei Gaopeng, the Young Master of Shocking Thunder Manor?
Zhou Heng thought of the letters he had found on the body of soone from the Three Poison Sect, as well as the information Shen Jingjing had given him. However, wasn’t this effect a bit weak?
Ordinary people, upon encountering the Formless Qi Dispersal Powder, would find their muscles and bones softening and their internal organs gradually withering. Even if they practiced Martial Arts, anyone below the Sixth Rank would experience their Inner Qi dissipate and their spirit dampened, and might even face a regression in their Inner Strength.
Yet, right now Zhou Heng only felt a mild decline in his strength, and his Inner Qi rely showed a tendency to beco dormant.
This level of impact would only require him to stand up and move his limbs, or to circulate his Inner Qi actively, and the effect would completely dissipate.
It definitely did not achieve the effect of the Formless Qi Dispersal Powder.
“Could it be so other poison gas? However, it could also be due to my Physique 1 as a basic attribute, which enhances my constitution all-around, not only making my skin and bones tougher but also increasing my resistance to poisons.”
Zhou Heng couldn’t help but laugh.
This basic attribute bonus really was a universal treasure, with a multitude of effects.
At the sa ti, he circulated his Inner Qi, dispelling the effects of the poison gas and maintaining his body in a normal state.
However, on the surface, he still feigned a tired appearance, rubbing his temples and squeezing his eyes before lying down on the bed with half-closed eyes.
He seed genuinely exhausted, in need of rest.
But in reality, he remained alert and focused, able to detect even the slightest rustle or stir around his room.
Luring the snake out of its hole.
Monts later, Zhou Heng’s breathing beca steady, smooth, as if he had entered into a dreamland.
It was now the hour of Hai, and both the streets and shops had grown quieter, especially inns and taverns, where it could truly be called the dead of night.
Zhou Heng’s state appeared very stable, as though he was truly asleep.
However, no one made a move next.
The poison gas continued to spread silently, with no one appearing, as if it was solely ant to release the poison.
Not until Zhou Heng had feigned sleep for half an hour, and the hour of Zi arrived, the darkest ti before dawn.
The door to the room was suddenly pried open.
Two delicate and graceful figures, sauntered in through the doorway.
They were the sa two beautiful won from the Tongtian Pavilion earlier.
Seeing Zhou Heng asleep on the bed, they exchanged a look, both revealing satisfied smiles on their faces.
They had succeeded!
Next, this man, so rich in vitality, could be toyed with at their leisure, his vital essence extracted as they wished.
“Sister, you’re so cautious,” said the woman in red, pleased with the achieved goal, to the woman in yellow. “If it were , I would have hardly been able to resist coming in half an hour earlier.”
“Haste does not bring success,” replied the woman in yellow, twisting her sultry body as she walked to Zhou Heng’s bedside, smiling, “Although the Formless Qi Dispersal Powder from the Three Poison Sect is powerful, accidents can happen, so increasing the dosage is never a bad idea.”
“He’s as good as a dead pig now,” the woman in red who had also co over said, casting a glance at Zhou Heng on the bed. “Sister, who should go first, you or ?”
“Why can’t we do it together?” The woman in yellow gave a seductive smile, then bent down to undo Zhou Heng’s belt. “Little sister, you lack experience and don’t know many tricks. Let big sister teach you.”
“What tricks?”
Just at that mont, a man’s voice, filled with mockery, rang out, startling both won.
Turning their heads, they discovered that the “great supplent” had, at so point, opened his eyes and was watching them with a smile that was not quite a smile.
“We’ve been tricked!”
“How is this possible? How could Xingxin Bongqi San be ineffective?!”
The two won cried out, shocked to their core, but their reactions were swift. Without hesitation, they rushed towards the inn room’s window, attempting to escape.
Both possessed peak Ninth Grade cultivation, which relatively speaking, made them quite powerful among ordinary martial artists of Jianghu.
However, their cultivation was obtained through absorbing Yang to supplent Yin, and they had hardly any combat experience. Faced with such an unexpected situation, their first instinct was to flee, not to fight.
“If you’ve co, then don’t leave.”
Zhou Heng flipped off the bed with great agility and positioned himself squarely in front of the two won, blocking their path.
At the sa ti, he lifted his hands and grabbed towards the shoulders of the two won!
Crack!
Snap!
Sounds of bones breaking echoed as Zhou Heng crushed the shoulder bones of both, then he kicked downwards, shattering their kneecaps as well.
To prevent their screams from alarming others, he pressed their heads into the bedding and stuffed their mouths with cloth, making it difficult for them to make a sound.
“Mmmph!”
“WuuulWuuu!!”
The two stunning won from Tongtian Pavilion could only watch Zhou Heng in abject terror, their bodies writhing as they tried to scream but could not make a sound, the scene was utterly pitiful.
Yet, Zhou Heng held no thoughts of pity for the fairer sex. In his eyes, these won who had tried to poison him with Xingxin Bongqi San were enemies.
To show rcy to an enemy was foolish.
“Who are you?” Zhou Heng’s gaze was piercing as he stared into their eyes and spoke in a deep voice, “Honghua Palace?”
When he was pretending to be unconscious, he had heard the won refer to him as a “great supplent.”
He had heard this term in so Jianghu rumors before. It was said to be a standard set by the won of the nefarious Honghua Palace to classify the richness of a man’s essence.
For instance, great supplent, minor supplent, miraculous dicine, and so on.
The two won instinctively wanted to shake their heads, but the sight of Zhou Heng’s eyes, sharp as lightning, terrified them so completely that they imdiately changed their minds and nodded in admission.
“Where did you get the Xingxin Bongqi San you used?” Zhou Heng asked sternly.
Although he had previously obtained so information about Shocking Thunder Manor and the Five Elents Sect in the teahouse, after all, those were only rumors and might not be true.
These won were from Honghua Palace and had such poison, perhaps they knew so information.
But their mouths were blocked now, preventing them from speaking.
Zhou Heng frowned slightly, then used his fingers to press and seal so key acupoints on the bodies of the two won, cutting off their sensation of pain, and then he removed the cloths from their mouths.
But as soon as the cloth was taken out, his complexion drastically changed.
ps: The classification of minor supplent, great supplent, and miraculous dicine is based on “Yi Shi Zhi Zun” and will be continued around 12 o’clock.
