On the following day, six human powerhouses had arrived at the foot of Monkey Mountain.
When they looked over the top of the mountain, their expressions became grave.
According to information, they will soon face a Rank 2 Peak Magical Beast, which is the same as the Peak Stage of the Foundation Establishment Realm.
Even if they gank up together, they might still be no match for the Magical Beast.
"Hey... I think we should just go back home and cultivate obediently..."
Suddenly a big and burly man said cowardly.
"You-" An old man with a long beard stunned for a second before he angrily said, "How can you have such a burly body when you are just a coward!"
The burly man was not happy. He said, "It's because I'm a coward that I have to build my body this strong..."
The long beard old man sneered and said, "Why don't you all build your body into iron. At least no one will kick you."
"Old man, I think you are just jealous of my young body." The burly man was annoyed that he mercilessly said, "Seeing your skeletonized body, you must be quite desperate, right? Don't worry. After you die on this mountain, I will prepare you a youthful body for you to take possession of."
"You-"
The long beard old man was infuriated after hearing these remarks. He was so angry that he couldn't speak.
"..."
The other powerhouses were speechless by their arguments.
For a moment, they doubted whether this operation would be a success or not.
"Quit, both of you!" Major Liu shouted sternly.
"We are here to fight, not to argue. I hope you all can get along and forget about our grievances for the time being, at least until this operation is over."
His gaze swept over the other powerhouses and continued his speech.
"We had discussed this last night, and we will go according to plan. This time the two of you and I will attack the Poisonous Giant Snake and lure it to the location we selected last night. Meanwhile, Shao Changfeng will prepare the Origin Suppression Formation on the spot. As for the rest, you guys hide in the periphery and prepare for an ambush."
"So it turns out that a trap that Major Liu spoke of last night was the Origin Suppression Formation..."
One of them couldn't help but be surprised.
Although they discussed last night, Major Liu did not specifically mention that the trump card in this operation was the Origin Suppression Formation.
Meanwhile, the Origin Suppression Formation was a formation capable of suppressing the cultivation base of the target trapped in it by a small realm.
That means if the Poisonous Giant Snake were trapped in the formation, its rank would regress to become an ordinary Rank 2 Magical Beast, which was equivalent to the Middle Stage Peak of Foundation Establishment Realm.
If it worked according to plan, Major Liu and the group would have a greater chance of winning.
After all, everyone doubted that Major Liu only prepared one trump card. In addition, everyone else also had at least one trump card each, which was enough to fight higher-level enemies.
Thinking about this, everyone couldn't help feeling excited.
The long beard old man rubbed his beard excitedly and spoke, "The reputation of Suppression Formation, this old man is very clear. I heard Major Liu relied on this formation to eradicate the Black Bear Bandits and kill their leader. At that time, Major Liu was only in the Early Stage of Foundation Establishment Realm while the Leader of Black Bear Bandit was at the Middle Stage of Foundation Establishment Realm."
"I remember that!" The burly man's eyes lit up slightly as he continued to say, "The Black Bear Bandits are a group of inhumane people and are the tumor of society. It's truly a good thing that Major Liu exterminated them. Unfortunately, I was still in the Qi Condensation Realm at that time; if not, I will help Major Liu participate in that incident."
"Hmph."
The long beard old man scoffed, "A cowardly like you want to exterminate the Black Bear Bandit? Why don't you just fight the tortoise? I bet you will win in terms of cowardice."
The other powerhouses chuckled slightly when they heard these words.
The burly man immediately fell into an embarrassing situation.
"Alas..."
Major Liu could only helplessly shake his head at this.
"Major Liu, how should we deal with the poison?"
Suddenly a woman in a yellow dress raised her doubts. She was the only female cultivator in this group.
"The Poisonous Giant Snake's poison gas is so overbearing that even an ordinary Rank 3 Detoxification Pill can't handle it. Perhaps only a Rank 3 Detoxification Pill with purity above 80% could solve it. However, pills of this grade aren't easy to find, let alone no Alchemists in town that can concoct a Rank 3 Detoxification Pill of such high purity."
"She's right!" The long beard old man nodded thoughtfully. Then he reluctantly said as he peered into Major Liu's face, "We are poor and cannot afford such pills. So, Major Liu, what do you think?"
Major Liu let out a deep sigh when he saw their faces.
He knew very well what they were thinking.
Although the Rank 3 Detoxification Pill with purity above 80% was expensive, it was not entirely unreachable for them. As long as they are willing to pay a certain price, they can get it.
However, Major Liu knew that he would have to bear the price for everyone. After all, he was the one who invited them.
It was just that he felt a little disappointed.
These people are local powerhouses of Monkey Town, but they are unwilling to make a little sacrifice for their own hometown.
"Don't worry about it. Last night after the meeting was dismissed, someone reached out to me and was willing to provide assistance to help us deal with the poison in Monkey Mountain. For now, we can only wait until the other party gets here." Major Liu said indifferently.
"Oh, there is someone like this in our town? I wonder who this nobleman is?" The long-beard old man suddenly became interested.
Major Liu is silent for a second before he answers, "He said his name was Collector."
"Collector?"
All but one person repeated the name in doubt.
That one person is none other than Zhou Xuzi.
"Collectors?" Zhou Xuzi was surprised. He couldn't help but ask, "Did Major Liu also make contact with Sir Collector?"
Zhou Xuzi's question aroused the interest of everyone, including Major Liu himself.
"It seems like Fellow Daoist Zhu also knows this person? Mind if you tell me your story?" Major Liu smiled.
Zhou Xuzi shook his head, "It's nothing serious, Major Liu. It just, I managed to recover from Green Fungus Toad's poison, all thanks to the medicine Sir Collector exchanged with me."
Zou Xuzi's words shocked everyone here.
They all knew what poison Zhou Xuzi was talking about.
Green Fungus Toad's venom is not as overbearing Poisonous Giant Snake, but it's still troublesome to get rid of.
Moreover, if one wants to remove it completely, the sufferer needs to take a Rank 3 Detoxification Pill with purity above 70%.
Others may be able to afford it, but Zhou Xuzi is notorious for his poverty.
Even if he sacrificed his entire fortune, it would still be difficult for him to obtain it.
Everyone thought, no wonder Zhou Xuzi suddenly became so healthy, it turned out that he had traded with a strong character.
"Is that the youth you met yesterday at the tavern?" Shao Changfeng suddenly interrupted as he curiously asked.
"No. That youth is Mr. Yin, and he's only the attendant of Sir Collector. The real person who made those miraculous medicines is Sir Collector." Zhou Xuzi replied.
The yellow-dressed woman squinted her eyes as she curved her lips slightly, "This concubine is suddenly interested in this mysterious person named Collector-"
"I'm so happy to hear that many people are interested in me. It's truly my honor~."
Suddenly an indistinct voice, which unknown whether it belonged to male or female, rang in the ears of the powerhouses.
