Chapter 122: Pill Number 2.
P.O.V - David.
As the dust begins to settle I see Conan glowing a fine amber colour as he sits in a lotus position.
I walk over to him and pat his shoulder.
He turns to look at me and with a smile I say;
"Congratulations."
"Thank you Master." He says as he smiles back.
I help him up to his feet and standing before me, he didn’t just break through into the Early Peak Realm, he entered the Mid Stage of the Early Peak Realm.
"Well done." I say as I pat his shoulder.
"Thank You and thank you everyone for helping me, I promise to make the best of this new strength." He says as he gives a head bow to everyone.
"Alright now, no time to waste, Nari it’s your turn." I say as I call her over.
She stands up comes over to me.
Conan walks over to sit where she previously sat on the circle.
"Alright, you know what to do."
"Yes Master." She replies.
She takes off her ragged shirt over her head just to reveal her back.
She the shirt remained in front covering her breasts.
"Ok everyone, let us begin."
Everyone begins Meditating and drawing in Ki but something happened, Conan was drawing in too much Ki so rather than absorbing and filling the Cave with Ki he was mostly absorbing whatever Ki was drawn in.
I notice this and I tell them to stop.
"Ok then Conan, switch places with Hoon." I say to him.
Conan was sitting more inside the cave while Hoon was more outside so I had them switch so Conan could be pulling in more Ki from outside and not the Ki which had been brought in.
They switch places and I have them start again.
They begin and it’s way much better this time.
This time Conan draws in more Ki from outside thereby increasing the Concentration of Ki in the Cave.
"It is time Nari, take the pill." I say to her as I gently place my palms on her bare back.
She opens the box revealing a glowing dark purple pill.
"Ummm, is this safe?" Nari asks.
"Do you trust me?" I ask with a smile.
"With my life Master." She replies firmly.
"Good, so take the pill and let’s step into a new Realm together." I say to her with a smile.
"Yes Master." She replies.
She takes in the pill and swallows it.
The process began and I helped her with Circulating her Ki.
"Keep going, don’t stop.
Ae-Cha, be prepared, when you notice anything strange like a rotting, withering skin or blood, begin to heal her ok?" I say to Her.
"Yes Master." She replies.
I need to fully concentrate so I may not be able to notice what’s going on on the outside.
This pill isore dangerous than the Supreme Yang Dominating Pill.
To grant poison immunity it needs to stimulate the body and to do that, it needs to dish out some poison.
Expelling the poison will only cause the pill to loose its effects so you need to drive the poison through your system with Ki.
She’s not experienced enough so she won’t be able to do it well.
I need to guide her Ki flow, so she can maximize the benefits of this pill.
I go in and I locate the poisons being dished out.
Using her Ki I begin to envelope them one by one and begin driving them slowly through her system.
This goes on for over an hour and as the last drop of poison begins to vanish, it was time.
Since she just worked with poison in her system, if she breaks through here shes going to spread deadly poison around.
As I come back to reality I see Ae-Cha in front of Nari healing her.
Nari was bleeding from her mouth, nose, eyes and ear.
For a moment it reminded me of how one of my maids from the Ximen Clan had died.
But Nari is not gonna die.
"Good job Ae-Cha, I need to go now." I say as I pick up Nari and sprint out of the cave.
Holding her in my hands I kept running fast away from the cave, as far away from the cave as possible, since I do not know how far the poison could spread.
In under two seconds I was sixteen kilometers away from the cave, in the woods surrounded by trees.
I carefully drop her on the dry leaves.
I go back to placing my palms on her back and after a little more meditation...
*BOOM*
A large wave of Poisonous Ki explodes from her decimating the trees around.
The wave sends me away a few meters bashing my back against a tree.
Everywhere begins to settle down after a few seconds.
She opens her eyes and is surprised by the new scene.
"M...Master???" She calls out to me with a confused tone.
I was watching her the whole time but of course I don’t reply, I can’t let go of the opportunity to scare her a bit, hehehehe...
She rises to her feet as she wears her shirt properly and begins looking around.
Her facial expression filled with confusion.
"Ma...Master please are you there? Conan??? Hwa??? Is anyone there???"
"Di...Did I kill them? Naaa, Master would’ve protected them, and besides, there’s no way I blew away a cave that Master once punched with all his might.
Yh, these leaves on the ground, I’m not at the cave, ahhh, Master..." She says as she heaves a sigh as if realizing something.
"Playing another prank Master? I’m not falling for it this time, we’ve all passed that age where we used to fall for your pranks." She says as she begins walking towards the cave.
I heave a sigh as I come out from behind a tree in front of her.
"Life used to be so much sweeter when you were all naive kids." I say with a disappointed expression.
"Well, maybe you can get new children to be pranking." She says while pouting.
"I’m not getting anyone else, you all are my only precious little stuffs." I say with a smile as I pat her head.
"Stuffs???" She argues.
I burst out laughing as we keep walking towards the cave.
At a point she looks at me with a smirk and says;
"Wanna race to the cave?"
I guess jumping from the Mid stage First Rate to Mid Stage Early Peak made her a lil overconfident.
Or maybe she just wants to test out her new found strength.
But if course, I have to let her have what she wants.
I agree and the race commences.
Of course I give her a headstart, a headstart of 0.12 seconds.
In 0.78 Seconds she bursts through the trees as comes to a stop at the entrance of the cave.
She heaves a sigh with a face that says; ’Of course’ as she sees me leaning against the wall waiting for her.
I had arrived 0.2 seconds earlier than her.
"Cant you let your disciples who just attained something win for once?" She asks.
"Nope, Never, if you wanna win, then win with your own strength." I say as I pat her head.
We both go inside the cave to meet the other children who were waiting for us.
"Welldone everyone, you all did well." I say as I clap for them.
"Thank you everyone for helping me out." Nari says.
Everyone comes together and they hug each other.
I let them be for a while then I begin clapping my hands to get their attention.
"Alright everyone, everything is set.
You have worked, you have trained, you have grown... It is now time to go out and rule.
The time has come my dear disciples, rest this night, for tomorrow, we set out to conquer."
Silence fills the room as I finished speaking.
The all look at me, their jolly faces vanished, their faces turned serious, their killing intent as thick as clouds...
"Aahhhh, I’ve raised monsters..."
P.O.V - Diana.
"What the fuck is going on here??" I say out loud to myself.
On the arena, where the individual fights for the selection of representatives for the upcoming Orthodox Murim Festival is going on.
Dang Hyuk was paired up against a Dang Lu, the Elder disciple of the second Elder.
I knew Dang Hyuk was going to win but Dang Hyuk didn’t just overwhelm his opponent, he was ruthless.
Dang Lu would have surrendered but Dang Hyuk didn’t even give him the chance.
Dang Lu laid bleeding out on the arena and Dang Hyuk wasn’t ready to stop.
Dang Lu wasn’t dead but he would soon be if no one stops Dang Hyuk.
The Second Elder leapt unto the stage angry and told Dang Hyuk to stop.
Dang Hyuk with his poker face and a cold tone replied;
"You are interrupting the match Elder, he hasn’t surrendered, please leave."
I could feel the rage of Dang Shoo the Second Elder from here.
"Dang Hyuk!!!" Dang Woon yells out.
Dang Hyuk turns to look at his father who just called him.
"Step down, now!" The Patriarch orders.
"Yes father." He replies with a bow and leaves the arena.
"I think I need to speak with my brother..." Dang Soha says...
