657 An Accidental Poisoning

Su Yu, who was a thousand miles away, had an awkward facial expression on his face . This was not the first time that he had snatched away other people's treasures .
However, it was the first time that he had snatched away an innocent person's belongings . Therefore, he felt slightly guilty .
However, to a certain extent, if Su Yu had not intervened, the old man would have died on top of losing his belongings . Despite knowing this, Su Yu still felt a psychological burden regarding his actions .
"I am sorry, Bai Chong . This item is very valuable to me . If there is an opportunity to repay you in the future, I will," Su Yu mumbled .
As he looked around, he discovered a valley that was filled with trees and plants . This made it quite a suitable hiding place . As his shoulder tilted, Su Yu landed in the valley and found a spot to sit in a cross-legged manner .
He retrieved the jade box and looked at the vibrant live spirit that was a miniscule white horse . He could not help but be awed by it .
He was no longer the young fellow from the past . Having experienced the Mysterious Heavenly Divine Pavilion, his eyesight had improved somewhat .
Now, it was not difficult for him to assess the strong energy that was contained within the live spirit . It was actually a plant!
"Cloud Galloping Horse . . . It is strange that the Zhenlong Continent can still breed such a spiritual being," Yun Yazi said from within the jade box .

He then said, "A plant like the Cloud Galloping Horse requires very dense Spiritual Energy in order to grow . It is even difficult to breed it in a place like the Mysterious Heavenly Divine Pavilion . Although the Spiritual Energy has become denser in the Zhenlong Continent, it is still only similar to that of the Mysterious Heavenly Divine Pavilion's . I really cannot see how this kind of spiritual being can grow here . This whole matter is rather strange . "
Su Yu suddenly felt suspicious about this, too . From the information that he had gathered, the Empire of Darkness was being surrounded by the otherworldly experts .
So, he had to wonder…
How did Bai Chong appear and just so happen to be carrying the Cloud Galloping Horse? Moreover, why was he being hunted down by the otherworldly expert?
All of this was very confusing .
"Let's leave that matter aside for now . Can I swallow this thing directly?" Su Yu asked eagerly . The item was even effective for a Fairy that cultivated Vital Energy, so he figured that it would be even more effective for a Half Fairy .
Unexpectedly, Yun Yazi replied mercilessly, "If you want to get poisoned to death, go ahead and swallow it! I will not stop you . "
Su Yu raised his eyebrows . Is the Cloud Galloping Horse filled with deadly poison?
Yun Yazi then explained, "The Cloud Galloping Horse is a being of the universe . It is highly effective for martial artists who are cultivating . However, it naturally contains a strange poison . Even a little bit of it would cause anyone below the Grade Four Fairy level to die, as they cannot block it with their mighty Vital Energy . Although your First Dragon's Body is very strong, it is not strong enough to protect you from such a deadly poison . "

Su Yu was not surprised to hear this . Instead, he showed a thoughtful expression and asked, "In that case, how should I consume this? Do I need to turn it into a medicine?"
Yun Yazi replied, "Yes, you need to mix it with some precious ingredients to nullify the poison's effects . You can only consume the medicine after it is mixed . As for the materials, you may find them in the Zhenlong Continent . However, it will take you months to do so .
Yun Yazi then spoke in a consoling manner, "Fret not . The Cloud Galloping Horse is in your hands already, so your consuming it is only a matter of time . If everything goes right, the day that you consume the Cloud Galloping Horse will be the day that you break through to the Three Crystal Half Fairy stage . "
Is that so? Su Yu's eyes were filled with a brightness as he nodded and said, "Alright, your disciple understands . "
Yun Yazi then said, "Alright, you have been occupied with work recently, so your time for cultivation has been reduced . You should aim to complete all of the tasks in the continent . Only then will I be able to guide you further . During this time, I need to recover . Unless there is an emergency, do not wake me up . "
Su Yu did not know that Yun Yazi had once revealed himself in another world in order to kill an All Creation Old Monster . That was why his soul had been heavily damaged . As such, he would need to enter a long slumber to recover his soul's energy .
Su Yu was stunned . He is entering another deep slumber?
However, he suddenly looked like he was eager to try something out as he thought . . . This is good, too .

"Alright, take care of yourself . I hope that you will surprise me yet again when I wake up," Yun Yazi said . As soon as he finished speaking, the jade box became silent .
Su Yu used his senses to ascertain that Yun Yazi had entered a state of deep slumber . Thereafter, Su Yu's gaze fell on the jade box that contained the Cloud Galloping Horse .
He laughed, then said thoughtfully, "There is no need to wait . I can surprise my master right now . "
He extended his right hand to retrieve the Cloud Galloping Horse and placed it in his palm . Although the Cloud Galloping Horse was clearly a spiritual herb, its snow white body was like a real horse that was galloping about . It looked very much alive .
Deadly poison, huh? Su Yu was very curious . He gave it a brief thought before plucking a strand of white hair from the Cloud Galloping Horse .
Using his Soul Eyes, Su Yu closely observed the hair . Under his gaze, he soon discovered bits of white liquid that were concealed in the hair . Although Su Yu had the Soul Eyes, he would not have discovered the hidden liquid if he had not already been warned about it .
He then took a closer look at the entire Cloud Galloping Horse . It was not difficult to notice that the entire Cloud Galloping Horse was filled with the white liquid, including its blood vessels, veins, flesh and skin . This liquid undoubtedly contained a deadly poison that, as Yun Yazi had said, could kill anyone below the Grade Four Fairy level .
After thinking for a moment, Su Yu stuck the strand of hair into the ground beneath his feet . Instantly, the white liquid in the hair seeped into the earth . Suddenly, with the land beneath Su Yu's feet as the center, the flowers and grass all started yellowing and lost their colors gradually . Finally, everything turned black, as everything had been poisoned by the white liquid .
All of the hidden rodents and snakes in the valley had died as well . In a brief moment, the entire valley became deadly silent .
At the same time, a mild milky white substance spread in the air . A slight intake of it caused Su Yu to feel dizzy, so he panicked .
"This is not good!" Su Yu gasped, while he immediately leapt into the air and raced somewhere ten miles away in the sky . Simultaneously, he started activating his Vital Energy to expel the mistakenly inhaled white substance .
However, Su Yu surprisingly discovered that the milky white substance was not afraid of his Vital Energy at all . It simply continued to spread throughout Su Yu's body . Su Yu felt that his head had become even heavier and his vision started getting blurry . This was a sign that he would soon lose consciousness .
A sense of danger filled his heart . He had initially wanted to test if the Cloud Galloping Horse was truly poisonous . He had not expected that the situation would become this challenging . Even his Vital Energy could not resolve it!
Su Yu's Thunder Crystal within his Dantian immediately released a large amount of lightning . However, the highly destructive thunderbolt barely had any effect on the milky white substance . When they came into contact with one another, it was like a normal mist had been emitted, and the milky white substance still continued to spread throughout Su Yu's body .
Su Yu's heart thumped . He had truly brought this upon himself! What a mysterious poison! Sensing that his consciousness was fading away even further, Su Yu felt his heart become heavier .
After the thunderbolt failed, Su Yu immediately attempted to freeze the milky white substance with his frosty ice energy . In the beginning, the milky white substance was indeed frozen . However, after a short while, the milky white substance thawed and began spreading once again throughout Su Yu's body .
"I refuse to believe that I cannot overcome a meager poison like you!" Su Yu grumbled .
He then released a flame in his body . This was the flame of Fire Origin, which started spreading inside Su Yu's body immediately, then collided against the milky white substance .
