The medicine's effects were kicking in?!
Before Chang Xuan and the others could figure out what was happening, they suddenly felt a wave of weakness wash through their bodies. The mana deep within their Purple Mansions was rapidly vanishing, as though all the strength in their bodies had been drained away on the spot.
"Not good! The mana in my body is disappearing?!"
"My heavens, what is happening? I can feel my strength fading away bit by bit."
"Chen Wei, damn you! What exactly did you do to us?"
Chang Xuan and the others were horrified beyond measure. They felt weaker than ever before, and one after another collapsed to the ground. With several clatters, the weapons in their hands fell onto the dirt as well.
They struggled to breathe, drenched in sweat, limp as puddles of mud, utterly unable to muster any strength.
They had originally possessed the strength of the As-You-Will Realm, even the Divine Ability Realm. With a wave of their hands, they could blast apart great mountains. In ancient Hua, they would have been beings akin to terrestrial immortals.
But now, they felt their strength rapidly vanishing, as if they had become ordinary mortals. They were even frailer than infants, and decades—perhaps even centuries—of bitter cultivation had been destroyed in a single day.
Every one of them was terrified and utterly despairing.
"Don't worry. You've merely been poisoned, which has caused your cultivation to temporarily disappear. It isn't permanent. It will only last twenty-four hours, after which it'll slowly recover."
Chen Wei said with a smile.
Twenty-four hours?!
Upon hearing this, Chang Xuan and the others fell into even deeper despair. Even if they were weakened for only a few minutes, they would be doomed, hacked to death by Chen Wei and that band of natives.
