"What was going on? You had Myriad Poisons Astral Qi, so how had you still let Shen Luo and the others break through? Did you deliberately let them in?" In the dark space, the voice of clashing metal rose sharply, filled with rage.
"When had I ever let them in? You were controlling Ao Hong and the others. You personally inspected every strand of Myriad Poisons Astral Qi I injected into their bodies. If there was a problem, it came from your side," the other voice protested.
"Since there was no problem, why was Myriad Poisons Astral Qi useless against Shen Luo? Myriad Poisons Astral Qi is the ultimate expression of the Path of Extreme Poison. In ancient times, Shebishi, the Ancestral Witch of Poison, relied on this divine ability to poison countless Heavenly Venerable Realm cultivators to death. How could it fail against a mere Late-Tier Taiyi?" the metallic voice roared.
"How would I dare compare myself to Ancestral Witch Shebishi? Though I have also cultivated Myriad Poisons Astral Qi, it falls immeasurably short of the divine ability cultivated by the Ancestral Witch of Poison. Besides, Shen Luo carries our sect's supreme treasure, the Myriad Poisons Primordial Pearl. That is why he could counter Myriad Poisons Astral Qi," the other voice said.
"The Myriad Poisons Primordial Pearl? Shen Luo did seem to have such a thing. What is it, that it can neutralize Myriad Poisons Astral Qi?" The metallic voice's anger subsided somewhat as it asked.
"The Myriad Poisons Primordial Pearl is the sacred relic of Daughter Village. It contains a Poison Law, said to have been left behind by Ancestral Witch Shebishi in ancient times. It can dissolve every poison in the world, so naturally my Myriad Poisons Astral Qi could not escape it," the other voice replied.
