Chapter 135 Poison

The Poison Ghoul was slain, and the scarlet sea that covered the mountains and plains dissipated.

The illusory figures condensed by mental power also shattered.

Gu Shen gently inhaled.

From the tattered clothes of the headless corpse emerged an antique snuff bottle. The quality of this sealed item was not bad, probably "Grade A," though it was quite old.

There were some cracks on the surface of the snuff bottle.

In the years the Poison Ghoul was imprisoned, this sealed item had been buried in the tundra snow, its exact location unknown to anyone… This fellow was quite "calculating." The layout from back then showed that he had long planned to escape from Xue Long (Snow Cage).

It was a pity.

The enforcement methods of Nagano Third Division were not something a Fourth Order could break through.

If not for the accidental attack of the Celestial Sheath fragment… the Poison Ghoul would never have had the chance to escape. As for the "snuff bottle" he buried in the tundra, it would have been completely lost, perhaps to be found by a "lucky" person in the snow many years later?

However, this snuff bottle contained a large amount of poison.

Finding it might not be so "lucky" after all.

"Hoo…"

Gu Shen slowly exhaled a wisp of turbid air. Earlier, when the scarlet sea enveloped him, he hadn't dodged at all, and had even personally tasted the "poison."

The poison was potent.

Slightly dizzying.

Of course, for other extraordinary individuals, it wouldn't just be dizziness… The patrolling guard from before had only been in contact for a few seconds before being directly poisoned. If Gu Shen hadn't intervened, he probably wouldn't have survived.

At that moment, the wisp of poisonous gas Gu Shen exhaled slowly drifted into the snuff bottle.

"Is this poison the Poison Ghoul's lifelong accumulation?"

Gu Shen examined the snuff bottle.

After escaping, the Poison Ghoul had immediately retrieved this sealed item… Truth be told, its killing power was strong enough, especially suitable for large-scale attacks, but the grade of the Poison Ghoul's mental toxin was still somewhat lacking.

"Let's try replacing it with my 'poison.'"

With a thought, Gu Shen mobilized the "Lacquer Stone" in his spiritual sea, squeezing out a drop of condensed Doru River poison from his fingertip.

"Plop."

Inside the snuff bottle, chaos erupted instantly.

This action could be described as raising Gu!

The poisons that the Poison Ghoul had painstakingly cultivated for a lifetime were instantly contaminated and corroded by the Ming River poison… Even the container bearing them creaked, as if it could no longer bear the burden.

"Crack…"

Looking at the interior of the snuff bottle, a crack appeared.

Gu Shen raised his eyebrows, his expression somewhat intriguing.

"Could it be that it can't contain it?"

He quickly summoned Black Silver, controlling it with his mental power to fill in some of the gaps inside the snuff bottle.

Fortunately, the quality of Black Silver was high enough.

This concentrated drop of Doru River poison, under the dissolution of the Poison Ghoul's unknown toxins, gradually diluted and spread, eventually being successfully resisted by the Black Silver, sealing the internal gap in the snuff bottle.

Gu Shen gently shook it.

A full bottle of poison, now tinged with a drop of "river poison."

The lethality of this thing had been directly elevated to a higher level… It was a pity that the material of the snuff bottle was somewhat poor, only able to contain so much poison, otherwise its power could have been even greater.

"Even without the river poison, once these toxins spread, they could probably massacre half a city in a short amount of time."

Gu Shen put it away. This sealed item was too dangerous—

He wouldn't hand it over.

It was safest for him to keep it himself.

……

……

All of this had only taken a few seconds.

"Solved one, three left."

Gu Shen looked towards Mu Qingyang.

Blazing flames swirled.

He could see the scene there clearly.

"Mu Qingyang is quite strong, it shouldn't be a problem…"

Gu Shen shifted his gaze, looking towards the rear of the camp.

Of the three Fourth Orders who had come to raid and kill, the Poison Ghoul was responsible for spreading the scarlet sea, the White-Haired Ghoul was responsible for luring away Mu Qingyang, and there was one left.

Silver Eyes!

Of the three, he was the weakest, ranked sixty-seventh on the Tundra list.

Of course, this was also related to his ability. Silver Eyes' ability was Source Eye, which was not an ability that could enhance combat power. The role of this kind of extraordinary individual in a team was often to provide "support."

However, a Fourth Order mental support was stronger than most Third Orders!

As for the heinous criminals imprisoned in the tundra, there was no need to say more… Just because their abilities played a supporting role, there was no reason to underestimate them.

The three had a clear division of labor.

With the Poison Sea suppressing and Mu Qingyang restrained… the difficulty of the subsequent attack would be greatly reduced!

Silver Eyes had already circled around to the rear of the camp, seemingly preparing to launch a surprise attack from the back. With his mental power, as long as he could tear open a gap, it would be like a wolf entering a flock of sheep.

……

……

"Enemy attack!"

"Enemy attack!!"

The temporary base for the night was located at the foot of a small snow mountain, backed by a snowy slope. When the scarlet sea was released, the Mu family's extraordinary individuals had set up their weapons on the high ground, preparing to counterattack.

It was a pity that the scarlet sea fog was too thick.

Their vision and mental perception were all blocked by the Poison Ghoul's domain!

After Gu Shen killed the Poison Ghoul, the scarlet sea shattered, and although snow and fog remained, most of the extraordinary individuals' vision had become clear again.

They immediately saw the silver figure that had appeared on the camp's snow mountain at some point.

The third attacker, Silver Eyes!

"Da da da—"

In an instant, firepower was activated, and all the gun muzzles were aimed at him!

Logically enhanced bullets poured out like a stream!

In the battle against high-level extraordinary individuals, logically enhanced bullets could actually play a very considerable role… The era had long changed, and most of those who advocated "individual heroism" had already been buried in cemeteries.

At the very least, one had to be a titled powerhouse, or an apostle with "divine power."

Otherwise, it would be difficult for a high-level extraordinary individual to move freely within a massive network of firepower.

Extraordinary cultivation was a leap in life.

Although Fourth Orders possessed domains, they were still made of flesh and blood!

"The scarlet sea is broken?!"

The sudden shattering of the scarlet sea caught Silver Eyes off guard.

The camp's counterattack was also unexpected.

The moment he exposed his position, he began to shift his location. With so many heavy firepower weapons set up on the high ground of the camp, he was not stupid enough to rush up there as a mental type, or he would be blasted into slag before he could even take ten steps.

Within the network of firepower, Silver Eyes dodged extremely embarrassedly.

But the next moment.

The situation reversed—

At the moment when everyone was aiming at him to launch a counterattack, a huge silver pupil suddenly opened in the sky above the snow mountain, and the Fourth Order Source Eye domain unleashed a heavy mental shock!

Bearing the brunt of the attack was Ji Mo, the Fourth Order doctor responsible for protecting the camp.

"Boom!"

The moment the Source Eye opened, Ji Mo's spirit met the attack head-on. He knew very well that if Silver Eyes' mental power splashed out within the camp, the "firepower network" that had been so difficult to organize would be torn apart.

Once hypnotized by a mental type.

Everyone would die!

The silver pupil on the snow mountain blinked violently, and at that blink, thousands of blood vessels surfaced, gathering together and converging at the center of the pupil.

"Pfft…"

Ji Mo's expression suddenly turned pale.

No!

He was no match for Silver Eyes at all. Just withstanding the attack, his head felt as if it was splitting open. Was this really the Source Eye ability used for support?

This counterattack had only bought the camp a brief second of time.

Silver Eyes was a desperate man, so of course he had also suffered from Ji Mo's counterattack in this mental clash… But his spirit was stronger, and his speed of suppression was even faster. To win, he could not hesitate in the slightest.

He launched another attack.

The silver pupils were now filled with dense blood vessels!

"Boom—"

This second impact, wrapped in a vast snowy wind, directly submerged the camp. The Blazing Fire Barrier that Gu Shen had casually set up had become less solid after multiple impacts from the Poison Sea.

In addition to Ji Mo and Silver Eyes' full-force collision, the mental power of the two had torn a tiny gap in the Blazing Fire Barrier on the back of the camp.

This time.

Ji Mo failed to withstand it. There was a "boom" in his mind, and his vision was filled with endless blood-red color.

And the moment Silver Eyes' mental power rushed into the "camp," the original dense sounds of gunfire and explosions instantly quieted down. This scene was extremely strange—

The entire camp seemed to be haunted in an instant.

Everyone was pulled into Silver Eyes' dream.

Here, the sky and earth were dim.

There was only endless blood, swirling beneath the clouds and floating above the earth.

A great sense of oppression filled the hearts of every extraordinary individual. The extraordinary individuals in the camp looked at each other, reuniting in the dream, but this time… the weapons in their hands had disappeared.

"Buzz buzz buzz—"

A strange noise came from above the dome.

A pair of blood-colored pupils emerged from the darkness, followed by a second pair, a third pair, a fourth pair…

Countless Blood Eyes replaced the sun and moon, filling this world.

Seeing these pairs of blood eyes.

Even though these extraordinary individuals harbored a determination to die, despair still welled up uncontrollably in their hearts.

Yes… this was Silver Eyes' true purpose.

He wanted to use this dream to let these hateful law enforcers die in despair.

Countless blood eyes, densely packed, slowly closed.

The moment they opened.

Countless red lights descended from the dome. This was an extremely magnificent and spectacular Mental Shock—

Most of those who had entered the dream were still immersed in despair and had not awakened.

The moment they realized that "death" was coming.

The blood light had already fallen.

"Boom boom boom boom!"

Hundreds of explosions rang out simultaneously, almost overlapping each other.

And at this moment, this dark world filled with blood-red color was illuminated by a ray of blazing light.

A figure, like a meteor, crashed into this spiritual world unreasonably.

As the red light descended.

Gu Shen landed in front of everyone, running two fingers across his brow, and the Barrier of Light, which was even more vast and magnificent than the thousands of scarlet blood lights combined, unfolded at this moment—

The intense explosion filled the entire world.

The extreme noise had now turned into extreme silence.

The law enforcers stared blankly at this scene. Under the protection of this towering Barrier of Light, two Mental Powers that seemed extremely powerful were colliding.

One came from Silver Eyes, the most heinous Fourth Order mental criminal in Xue Long.

It was hard to believe that the other was Little Gu.

At this moment… he was only a Third Order.

They had thought that this collision, evenly matched, would already be a "miracle," but they had not expected that after a moment's pause, the Pillar of Light would rush into the clouds with overwhelming force.

Third Order, crushing Fourth Order!

In the next moment, Gu Shen truly transformed into a vast ray of heavenly light, rising from the ground and heading straight for the dome!

This was the world of dreams.

As long as the mental power was sufficient, there was no exaggeration in what kind of scene the battle here would show.

No one blinked at this moment.

Suddenly, countless figures in black windbreakers appeared on the dome—

How many blood eyes there were.

There were as many Gu Shens.

Thousands upon thousands of Gu Shens, wielding blazing flames, transformed into long knives.

Time seemed to freeze at this moment.

Only Gu Shen's voice echoed between the sky and the earth.

"Killing you… only requires one strike."

A simple, unadorned strike.

Gu Shen's blade light followed the small pupil in the center of the eyeball, slicing it in half—

Countless blood lights burst forth.

The world once again ushered in the pouring of "scarlet blood," but this time, it was Silver Eyes' blood.

The dream dissolved.

In the real world, there was no scarlet blood, no blood eyes… only snow mountains and cold wind. The entire world was quiet, and no one was firing anymore. All the law enforcers' gazes were focused on one point.

They stared blankly at the top of the mountain, at the Fourth Order extraordinary individual Silver Eyes, who had cast Group Hypnosis, being lifted up by Gu Shen, grabbed by the front of his clothes, and raised above his head.

This high-risk criminal ranked sixty-seventh on the Xue Long list was now in an extremely listless state of mind.

He was already blind.

A large amount of bloody tears flowed from his eyes.

Gu Shen had teamed up with extraordinary individuals who possessed the Source Eye ability, and he knew what the greatest weakness of this ability was…

Poking out his eyes.

Silver Eyes was just a blind man.

"Although the higher-ups said… capture him alive if possible, but you've been cut by my blade in the spiritual world… Even if I take you back, you're just a cripple."

In order to ensure nothing went wrong, Gu Shen did not show the slightest mercy when he struck. His mental power, close to the eleventh level of the Deep Sea, directly crushed the spiritual sea of this Fourth Order mental extraordinary individual.

Silver Eyes' spiritual sea had been almost completely destroyed.

Even if he was taken back to Xue Long, he would not be able to provide computing power to the Deep Sea.

Such a person was indeed no different from a dead man.

Gu Shen asked softly, "So, it's better to just die, what do you think?"

Although Gu Shen's tone was gentle.

But of course, he was not really consulting Silver Eyes' opinion.

Gu Shen never showed mercy to this kind of evil person.

Even a single breath of life could lead to accidents.

So, as soon as he finished speaking.

The Blazing Flame between his eyebrows appeared on its own, combining with several sharp iron fragments to transform into a streak of fire that swept across Silver Eyes' neck.

With a "sizzle" sound.

Silver Eyes' head fell to the ground.

At this moment, everyone below the mountain fell silent. From the time Gu Shen took action to the time he killed the two Fourth Order high-risk criminals, it seemed as if only ten minutes had passed?

As Gu Shen turned his gaze towards the White-Haired Ghoul's location.

Everyone had only one thought in their minds—

Gu Shen had gone mad with killing!
