No matter what, Luo Tian had to bring these people through.
As a man, he had to fulfill his promise.
He also had to bring them through and only had a little over a month to do it.
The Misty Cloud Academy’s first selection exam was over. So, as soon as the scrolls have been reviewed, the second selection exam will be announced. As usual, the review should be completed in around a month. If he cannot leave the Boundless Mountain Range within a month, then he will miss the second round of the exam. If that were to happen, he would only be able to try again next year.
Luo Tian couldn’t wait, not even for a moment.
He had to enter the Misty Cloud Academy as soon as possible and find the antidote to the Soul Poison.
Even though Illusion Fairy was very knowledgeable, she had very limited information she could provide to Luo Tian about the Soul Poison. She only knew a little about the antidote and that only sorcerers could create the antidote. She didn’t know the rest.
That’s why Luo Tian had to enter the Misty Cloud Academy and find the old man who was chatting about the Soul Poison with Dongfang Shuo’s father. This was his only clue and perhaps his only hope.
If he couldn’t even overcome this difficulty before him, what’s the point of him trying further?
Luo Tian went around to give his regards to the injured brothers before checking the surrounding area out. Only after that did he take a rest.
This place was completely different from the Martial Mountain Range. The environment was much more hostile to humans.
Most importantly, there was a permanent foul smell in the air here. There were no paths in the mountains, and lots of trees and roots intertwined with each other like a tropical rainforest. There were also a lot of thorny flowers and plants that looked like they were poisonous.
Every step was difficult to take.
Very few people from Towering Cloud City would enter the Boundless Mountains. To the people of Towering Cloud City, the Boundless Mountains was a place that rarely anyone has explored. Although there were many more valuable spiritual herbs here than in the Martial Mountain, no one dared to come in to look for them here.
This was even more difficult for Luo Tian.
Bai Xiong suddenly rushed over and said, “Boss, we have two brothers growing red lumps on their bodies, and they are running fevers. I’m afraid they might die if we don’t treat them soon.”
Luo Tian’s mind sank before he asked, “Are there any strange wounds on their bodies?”
“Wounds?”
Bai Xiong was momentarily lost for words, then his eyes widened as he asked, “They had two mosquito bite-like wounds on their calves. Are these considered wounds?”
Luo Tian immediately rushed over with furrowed brows.
Most insects in these rainforest-like environments were poisonous. Not to mention mosquitoes, a person might die even if they were bitten by an unremarkable ant. Even martial artists in the Condensation Element realm are no exception.
Luo Tian stood at high ground and said, “My fellow brothers, be careful when you guys are resting. Watch out, even if it looks like a harmless insect. Since these insects can survive in this jungle environment filled with toxic air, then they will definitely be poisonous. So please be extra careful.”
Many people saw how Luo Tian had saved two injured people, so they were grateful for it. But Luo Tian’s yuan energy was limited. He could do it a few times but there were fifty people here. If every one of them needed a heal, then he definitely wouldn’t have enough yuan energy.
Immediately after, Luo Tian called Bai Xiong and Lin Dong aside and said, “This won’t work. I have to go a little deeper into the mountain first and find some spiritual herbs that can counteract the poison. Otherwise, we’ll die here before we even enter the depths of the mountain.”
Lin Dong replied, “Boss, let me come with you.”
Bai Xiong also said, “Me too!”
Luo Tian then said, “I called you two over because I have an important mission for the two of you.”
“Are the four great families really not chasing after us? None of us are sure, so Bai Xiong, your task is to guard the entrance to the Boundless Mountain Range. Once you find any disciples from the four great families, immediately come back and tell everyone to change to a safer location. If it’s not possible to change locations, then retreat a little further into the depths of the mountain.”
“Lin Dong, your task is to protect everyone’s safety. Make sure you keep reminding them to be careful.”
“And...”
Luo Tian looked at Bai Lingling, who was busy wiping the wounds of the injured brothers, and continued, “Help me take care of Bai Lingling.”
Those two didn’t argue with Luo Tian.
Lin Dong said, “Boss, don’t worry. I will protect everyone’s safety.”
Bai Xiong slapped his chest and said, “I will take care of my task!”
Luo Tian smiled and said, “Good. I will be back as quickly as I can.”
He had to find the right spiritual herbs and concoct an antidote. Otherwise, they won’t be able to escape from the Boundless Mountain Range, let alone cross it to go to Boundless City.
The saying, with great power, comes great responsibility, was too true.
Luo Tian stomped on the ground and shuttled forward. He glanced at the light filtering through the gaps of the leaves and said to himself, “Uncle Bai, I will definitely lead them out of here. I definitely will!”
“Little Sister Illusion Fairy!”
“It’s about time to help me, right? I need to find the detoxifying spiritual herbs and concoct an antidote.”
Inside Luo Tian’s body, Illusion Fair replied, “Hand your body over to me!”
