Chapter 89 The skinny guy's bargain was worth it.
"I'm not bragging, but if anyone else had come in, they wouldn't have been so polite and courteous in discussing things with you."
As you've probably noticed, the toxicity of this fog zone isn't as strong as before.
Once a monster reaches the third rank, it can develop intelligence.
They could understand what Tu Shan said, but they just couldn't speak.
Those who can speak human language are at least seventh-order great demons.
Tu Shan smiled as a variety of emotions flashed across those large, ruby-like eyes.
She simply couldn't beat them, otherwise she wouldn't have kept trying to "reason" with them.
"Do you know why the concentration of toxic fog decreases in the toxic fog zone?"
He glanced at the innocent and curious Jade Toad, then mysteriously took out a jade bottle.
"Guess what this is?"
"Alright, you can't speak, and we can't interact, so let's just reveal our trump card. This is the venom I extracted from the poisonous fog in the poisonous fog zone."
"Anyone who isn't afraid of death can come and try."
He opened the bottle cap and poured out a drop of venom without any expression.
The poisonous gas, released into the air, is a hundred times more toxic than the toxic fog, making it a deadly temptation for the Jade Toad.
"Cuckoo"
A chorus of croaking toads filled the air, one after another, giving her a headache.
The venom fell freely, less than half a meter from the ground.
Suddenly, a jade toad leaped up like a basketball, its meter-long bright red tongue eagerly curling towards the venom.
Seeing this, Tu Shan quickly stepped aside.
The Jade Toad can not only purify toxins, but also store them.
When it is in a purified state, it is entirely jade-colored, except for its eyes and tongue, which are red.
When it is in attack mode, its entire body is red, except for its eyes, which are jade-colored.
A large group of green toads watched as five red toads fought over the venom, excitedly making "coo-coo-coo" sounds, as if cheering them on.
Tu Shan patted her chest, looking terrified, and continued to move to the side.
Is a single drop of venom really worth it?
The Jade Toad demonstrates through its actions that...
The five red Jade Toads are currently the strongest among this group of Jade Toads.
What is a deadly poison to others is the best medicine in the world to them.
If any one of the five swallows it, it can be refined to reach the fifth rank.
Tu Shan watched the toads fight with her arms crossed; whoever won would go with her.
As for whether I'm willing or not, ha!
It's beyond its control.
Just as the first bright red tongue was about to touch the venom, another bright red tongue lashed out at the first one like a whip.
Once you have one, you'll have a second, a third, and a fifth.
The entire area was played in slow motion at 0.5x speed, while the five jade toads, each the size of a basketball, were snatched up in fast motion at 3.0x speed.
"Snapped!"
"Snapped!"
The sound of the whips cutting through the air made Tu Shan feel a pang of heartache for them.
Seeing that the other Jade Toads remained unmoved, it seemed that strength truly reigned supreme wherever they went.
Five jade-colored basketballs went back and forth, vying for possession, a dazzling display that made the audience's eyes dazzled.
She rubbed her eyes; the speed of this fourth-tier demon beast was so fast that even her saline solution was coming out.
After thinking for a moment, he moved five steps to the side, reaching a relatively safe area, and rubbed his eyes.
Suddenly, all the "cooing" sounds stopped, and there was complete silence.
Tu Shan opened his eyes, wishing he could put on a pair of glasses to examine the situation more closely, fearing that he might miss too many negotiation conditions if he didn't observe carefully enough.
She was stunned to see the disbelief in the ruby eyes of the Jade Toad, who had been watching the battle.
Could it be that something unexpected happened while she was rubbing her eyes?
Follow the gaze of the Jade Toad.
I go!
When did a red jade toad appear?
It's one thing to have an extra one, but why are you trying to snatch it when you're only half the size of the other one? Aren't you afraid of getting whipped to death?
"Mimi, I just rubbed my eyes, how did the situation change so suddenly? What's with this unexpected unexpected obstacle?"
[It's nothing much. The other five are fighting, while this skinny Jade Toad rolls around on the ground like a ball.]
Whether intentionally or unintentionally, when it rolled over to the venom, it opened its mouth wide and took a deep breath, sucking the venom into its stomach.
Then, it changed from jade to red and continued rolling around, while the other five stopped fighting, and its jade eyes became even more transparent.
[It must have been angry, but for some reason, it didn't lay a hand on the skinny toad.]
Tu Shan stroked his chin, stared at the thin, jade toad for a while, and seemed to be deep in thought.
A surge of energy almost knocked her over.
Grass!
what happened?
[It should have advanced! It's now a fifth-tier great demon.]
The moment it advanced to the fifth-tier Pure Jade Toad, the other five changed from red back to jade.
"Quack quack!"
The sounds grew louder with each chorus, and even though she couldn't understand the meaning of the toad's calls, she could feel the excitement within them.
Oh ho!
The skinny guy really got a great deal this time!
Well, I just called him skinny, and now he's suddenly getting bigger.
By the end, "Skinny" was about 1.5 times the size of the other Jade Toads.
For some reason, Tu Shan always felt that this toad was growing crooked.
If you replace it with just one, the price could be double, or even more.
The fifth-tier Pure Jade Toad completed its advancement and turned to look at Tu Shan.
What are you looking at me for?
"poison!"
The innocent voice of a child reached her consciousness.
Hey!
That's impressive. You can transmit your voice and speak human language right after advancing to the next level.
"Okay, you come with me, and I'll give you poison, lots and lots of poison."
Let's just fool them for now. A fifth-tier demon beast is equivalent to the Nascent Soul stage. If we succeed, we'll have more helpers in future battles.
It tilted its head, its eyes full of confusion.
"Don't worry, as long as you come with me, we'll be friends. If anyone bullies me, you'll chase them away, and I'll give you venom, even better venom than the last one."
Of course, if the person who bullies me is stronger than you, you don't need to chase them away; I'll give them venom, or even better poison pills.
Her tone was firm, her eyes sincere; she was practically ready to raise her hand and swear an oath.
It's impossible to make an oath.
This ethereal continent swears that if it fails to keep its promise, it will truly be struck by lightning.
She doesn't want to get struck by lightning.
"Can."
Perhaps because he had just learned how to transmit sound, his speech was intermittent.
"By the way, I'm here looking for the Pure Jade Silver Frost Grass. I know your companions are useful, so I'd like to make a deal with you."
The moment she saw the group of fourth-tier Jade Toads, she gave up on getting them for free.
Transactions were her means.
There are two purposes in extracting the venom.
First, it's a deterrent. She's not as harmless as she seems. If she can produce this now, who knows what else she might have up her sleeve? Could she possess some kind of treasure that could wipe them all out?
One drop can fight six creatures; what about ten drops?
Could all the toads be involved, resulting in a life-or-death struggle?
Second, temptation. The things she possesses can allow some of them to break through barriers and advance directly.
Although I don't know how much, it's better than nothing.
Besides, she didn't show any hostility from the beginning, so presumably none of the toads would strike first.
Even if one of them wanted to take action, the other toads would not agree.
