Chapter 43: Izumo's Change
The power structure of the Izumo Empire is quite similar to that of the Garma Empire.
The Izumo royal family and the Alchemist Guild naturally have both.
Unlike the Yunlan Sect, which is the dominant one in the Gama Empire, there are two top forces in the Izumo Empire, one is the centian mansion located in the Izumo Imperial Capital, and the other is located in Scorpion The Ten Thousand Scorpions Gate of the Mountain Range.
Both of them have multiple levels of Douhuang warriors, so they can be said to dominate the entire northwest continent.
But today, the two forces, which may not be very harmonious on weekdays, both sent a powerful Dou Huang warrior to gather in the Izumo Imperial Capital. To be precise, it was the Alchemist Guild located in the Izumo Imperial Capital.
In the Alchemist Guild, the president of the Izumo Alchemist Guild, a fifth-grade alchemist, and Dou Wangqiang Youlu greeted the guests of the two top forces with a smile on his face.
"Brother Xieshan, Brother Centipede, it's been a long time."
"Haha... President Youru is so polite."
There are centipede scars on his face. The old man, Shun Ya, the master of Centian Mansion, smiled and said: "Since it is entrusted by President You Ru, how can I dare to ask for it?"
"Brother Centipede is absolutely right."
An unattractive smile appeared on Xie Shan's face, as if he was just mechanically squeezing his paralyzed facial muscles into a ball.
“Since we are entrusted by President Youli, we naturally come to help without further explanation.”
Among the three people who are eagerly calling each other brothers at this moment. , whether it is Xie Shan or Centipede, they are both strong men at the peak level of Dou Wang, but at this moment, they are talking and laughing with You Ru, who is only at the peak level of Dou Wang, talking passionately.
It can also be seen that even in the Izumo Empire where poison masters are everywhere, the status of the Alchemist Guild has not been affected at all, and there is even a vague tendency to move to the next level.
After all, everything in the world, among medicines and stones, is both medicine and poison. How to use it all depends on the individual.
Medicine can be used to poison, and poison can naturally be used to cure diseases and save people.
In fact, there is no too obvious boundary between the two.
Alchemists can refine elixirs and improve their cultivation. In the Izumo Empire, the Alchemists Guild takes over almost 90% of the poison trade. It can be said that both medicine and poison are in their hands. Even the top forces running sideways in the Izumo Empire like Centian Mansion and Ten Thousand Scorpions Sect do not dare to offend, and they must speak kindly and be respectful.
This is why a fifth-grade alchemist who is only a fighting king can call the number one figure among two powerful forces to help him.
Youru smiled and said: "You two, the matter that asked you to come has been clearly explained in the letter. I wonder if you are coming with me to the Nether Poison Swamp today?"
It turns out that as early as half a year ago, , after accidentally getting the news that the 20th Nether Poison Fire on the Alien Fire List was very likely to be produced in the Nether Poison Swamp, You Ru decided to seize this opportunity no matter what.
So, he sent an invitation to the Ten Thousand Scorpions Sect and Centian Mansion, asking them to each send a Douhuang warrior to help him go to the Netherworld Poison Swamp and obtain the Netherworld Poison Fire.
After half a year, the two major forces finally gave a reply, and completed this request and transaction in a manner that was almost unexpected by Youli.
After all, even Youli could not have imagined that this time the leaders of the two major forces would be willing to help him obtain the Netherworld Poison Fire. The depression and resentment caused by the letters that fell into the sea at first disappeared in an instant. Soon the excitement disappeared.
After all, it was a strange fire!
An existence that is enough to make countless alchemists flock to it!
What’s more, it was the Nether Poison Fire, which was the most unusual fire in this world that was thought to be suitable for their Poison Master.
How could You Lu not be jealous?
If you can get the Nether Poison Fire, then it will be inevitable for you to be promoted to Dou Huang and become a sixth-grade alchemist.
By then, the status of the entire Alchemist Guild will be even higher in the empire, and they no longer need to be afraid of Gu He from the Gama Empire.
When he thought of this, You Ru felt a burning sensation in his heart.
"Haha, since I came to help today, how can I disappoint President Youli?" Xie Shan laughed.
"Okay, okay! I have the help of the sect master and palace master today. When I obtain the Netherworld Poison Fire, I will definitely give you the most satisfactory reward."
< br>
"Haha, President Youru is so polite."
Cui Ya said: "Without further delay, let's go to Nether Poison Swamp first!"
"Brother Centi Ya said Absolutely, let’s go!”
As soon as he finished speaking, three streams of light flashed past the Izumo Empire and flew towards the Netherworld Poison Swamp in the southern part of the Izumo Empire.
…………
The Nether Poison Swamp located in the Izumo Empire is actually a fragment of the ancient Nether Poison Swamp, a part that has not yet evaporated and disappeared.
It is said that the Netherworld Poison Swamp once spanned thousands of miles and was filled with poisonous insects and snakes. Even strong men at the Douzong level could not stay here for a long time.
As the years passed, the world changed dramatically, and the Nether Poison Swamp that stretched thousands of miles in the past gradually changed into the scale and appearance it has today.
Although it is like the sky is falling for those poison masters who cultivate poison, after the toxicity of the poison swamp is reduced, as long as it is properly protected, even a fighter can stay here for a while.
Above the endless Nether Poison Swamp, two streams of light streaked across the gloomy sky.
Yao Wan and Xiao Yan were running their skills together. The fire attribute skills were naturally more resistant to this sinister place than those who practiced other attribute skills.
Before the toxins in the air could get close to the yarrow, they were completely burned away by the flames of fighting spirit surrounding her.
"The ruins of the Netherworld Poison Swamp... are much lower in intensity of poison than I initially guessed."
Yao Wan looked at the vast poison swamp and said subconsciously.
It's just that she is a fighting king and doesn't need to worry too much... She was thinking in her heart and subconsciously turned her head to glance at Xiao Yan.
"Xiao Yan, are you okay?"
Yao Wan said: "After all, this poisonous swamp is a Jedi passed down from ancient times. Your cultivation level is too low. If you feel unwell, tell me immediately. "
"Well...my limbs are a little numb..."
Hearing Yao Wan's words, Xiao Yan subconsciously raised his hands and glanced down.
Unexpectedly, traces of black meridians have slowly climbed up Xiao Yan's fingertips like a spider web.
"Uh... I seem to have been poisoned, Miss Wan..."
Xiao Yan took a breath. It was obvious that Dou Qi was already running in his body, but Dou Qi did not seem to be able to completely block the ubiquitous poison here. In the end, it only serves as a delay.
“What?”
Yao Wan felt nervous and had to stop her journey temporarily, and then check for any abnormality on Xiao Yan.
