But if he encountered Disciples who had mastered formations, he might not fear them in a one-on-one fight. However, if several opponents worked together to deploy a Formation, he might not be able to handle it.

It recorded that certain poisons could be applied to formation tools, using the circulation of internal energy within the Formation to expand the poison's range of diffusion and poison opponents without their realizing it.
However, this placed extremely high demands on the poison's stability. If a poison could not withstand the impact of internal energy, it might lose effectiveness while the Formation was operating, or even backfire on its user.
The more Lin Taichu read, the more he felt that his previous understanding of the Hundred Poisons Scripture Commentary had been too shallow. He had focused only on brewing poisons individually and overlooked their coordination with other skills.
