Chapter 948: Chapter 743: Poison Island

Anthony shook his head and said, "It’s hard for a clever woman to cook without rice, relying solely on me won’t do."

Xu Hengjiang understood and asked, "Mr. An, do you need anything else?"

Anthony nodded and said, "To completely eradicate this toxin, a Fourth-level Spirit Plant with a strong purification effect is required. As far as I know, spirit plants such as Jing Yilian and Bright God Discarded Fruit can achieve this."

Jing Chenghui smacked his lips upon hearing this, "Where would we find these in the Western Desert? I’m afraid we won’t be able to find them anytime soon..."

The Western Desert is desolate, with weak Star Power. Even though the coastal regions have more moisture, they are still unsuitable for spirit plants to grow.

On the mainland, apart from various islands in the sea, high-stage spirit plants are rarely born.

And on the already developed islands, none of them have the materials Anthony mentioned.

Anthony said, "These Fourth-level Spirit Plants are indeed rare. However, Jing Yilian grows untainted in mud, often flourishing in places dense with negative energy like toxins and pollution. Since the poison affecting Alliance Leader Xu is so potent, that place likely has Jing Yilian."

Xu Hengjiang’s eyebrows furrowed, "The place I got poisoned..."

Anthony inquired, "May I ask what exactly Alliance Leader Xu encountered to get poisoned?"

Xu Hengjiang sighed and said, "After the Poison Mist appeared in the sea region around Poison Mushroom Island last time, I went to investigate along with Master Shen from the Rock Dragon Gang and others, following the direction of the Poison Mist.

After delving deeply, we discovered another enormous island.

The entire island was shrouded in a thick, eerie green Poison Mist, which was so pervasive that even with our Star Power protection, it was continually being eroded.

Fortunately, once we passed through the Poison Mist and entered the island, the toxins on the ground were comparatively thinner.

However, the island’s vegetation was lush, resembling a forest maze, and shortly after, I unexpectedly got separated from Master Shen and the others.

I remained vigilant along the way, but unexpectedly was attacked by the plants on the island!"

"Plants?" Su Yuan’s eyes shifted slightly.

Xu Hengjiang nodded, "That’s right! As I ventured deeper through the forest, searching for the source of the Poison Mist,

upon entering a certain valley, the surrounding plants suddenly began to move. It was then I realized that these surrounding plants were Plant Star Beasts!

I was caught off guard and got struck. Although later I blasted all those plants apart, I was also eroded by the toxins.

After venturing deeper for a while, I suddenly felt an overwhelming weakness in my body and realized that the toxin had unknowingly spread throughout my body.

Thus, I decisively retreated, but due to the deep spread of the toxin, it only took half a day for me to end up in the state you saw earlier."

A large number of Plant Star Beasts...

Upon hearing this, Su Yuan couldn’t help but recall the demon plants in the Grey Realm.

The demon plant he encountered in the Grey Realm could absorb life essence, whereas the demon plants Xu Hengjiang mentioned on the island were extremely toxic.

I wonder if there is any connection between the two...

Su Yuan asked, "Alliance Leader Xu, what about Master Shen and the others from the Rock Dragon Gang you mentioned?"

Xu Hengjiang shook his head, "I don’t know; they seem not to have returned yet."

Su Yuan nodded and started pondering secretly.

Jing Chenghui stepped forward and said, "Alliance Leader, let’s arrange a team to go to that island and look for Jing Yilian as Mr. An said!"

Teng Jinghua nodded, "Yes, let’s set off immediately!"

Xu Hengjiang is the absolute core of the Storm Alliance; as long as he is present, the alliance exists.

But if anything were to happen to Xu Hengjiang, the Storm Alliance would become nominally non-existent.

Yuan Shan thought for a moment and said, "Since the two of you are going to that island, I’ll stay at the main base to take care of the Alliance Leader; he can’t utilize his Star Power much now."

Jing Chenghui nodded, "Alright then, Branch Master Yuan, make sure to take good care of the Alliance Leader until we return with Jing Yilian."

Yuan Shan snorted, "No need for your reminder; I’ve been with the Storm Alliance since it was founded. I’m more likely to face trouble than let the Alliance Leader face any!"

Xu Hengjiang looked at Yuan Shan and laughed, "With Old Yuan here, I’m at ease. But Chenghui, Jinghua, be extremely careful with those Plant Star Beasts, and if anyone gets poisoned, retreat immediately and don’t try to be a hero!"

Upon hearing this, Su Yuan gave Yuan Shan another glance.

Jing Chenghui said, "Don’t worry, Alliance Leader, we’ll find Jing Yilian as soon as possible, you should rest well!"

Teng Jinghua also nodded.

"Could we accompany your alliance on this mission?" At that moment, Su Yuan suddenly spoke up from the side, "I’d like to see those Plant Star Beasts on the Poison Island, and besides, I’m familiar with spirit plants and can help in the search."

Jing Chenghui was delighted, "Of course! Master Su, as an Alchemy Master, you would certainly be much more efficient than our aimless searching. The Storm Alliance would be extremely grateful for your assistance. But Mr. Anthony..."

Jing Chenghui glanced at Anthony beside them.

Evidently, Jing Chenghui was concerned that Anthony might also go.

After all, Anthony is crucial to whether Xu Hengjiang can cure the poison; if Anthony were to encounter an accident over there, even returning with Jing Yilian wouldn’t be of any use.

Su Yuan smiled and said, "If you don’t mind, Antonios can stay here at your main base for now. If Alliance Leader Xu experiences any discomfort, he can help at any time."

"Of course, we don’t mind. Thank you, Master Su!" Xu Hengjiang laughed heartily, quickly expressing his gratitude. He then instructed Teng Jinghua, "Jinghua, personally lead people to protect Master Su, and ensure his safety."

Before Teng Jinghua could speak, Su Yuan shook his head and smiled, "No need, I’m here to help, not to be a burden. I consider myself somewhat capable, it’s fine for me to act alone."

Xu Hengjiang scrutinized Su Yuan once more, and after a brief contemplation, nodded, "Alright, then I’ll rely on you!"

The Storm Alliance immediately began gathering manpower. Considering the danger level of that Poison Island, those heading to the island this time were all Radiant Moon Level!

A total of twenty-four Radiant Moon Level experts, mobilizing almost half of the elite from the Storm Alliance for Xu Hengjiang.

Meanwhile, Su Yuan privately called out Antonios and whispered some instructions...

Before long, the members of the Storm Alliance, along with Su Yuan, boarded a medium-sized speedboat at the dock, several speedboats heading swiftly towards the island marked by Xu Hengjiang...

The medium-sized star-powered speedboats advanced at full speed, with a pace not far behind that of the Radiant Moon Level.

Even so, it still took two to three days to finally see that massive island shrouded in a layer of eerie green Poison Mist.

Jing Chenghui shouted a reminder, "Be careful, we’re about to enter the poison zone, focus your Star Power for defense!"

"Hiss..."

The sound of dissolution rose one after another, and the group made a safe and thrilling entry onto the island.

Among them were all Radiant Moon Level experts, and with some preparation, they were not harmed by the Poison Mist.

Just as Xu Hengjiang had said, passing through this layer of Poison Mist covering the island, the miasma thinned out after landing.

The dense Poison Mist filled the air, making flight almost impossible, but it was harmless to walk on the ground.

Su Yuan observed the surroundings, with lush vegetation, hot weather, and humid air, it felt like entering a tropical rainforest.

Antonios had already synced the information of the Jing Yilian, Bright God Discarded Fruit, and other data with the Storm Alliance people.

At this moment, Jing Chenghui addressed the Storm Alliance team, "Everyone, split up and start searching. Once an antidote is found, use a talisman to notify!"

"Yes, Vice Branch Leader Jing!"

Numerous Radiant Moon experts divided into teams of three or four, each led by a Full Moon Level expert.

Based on the information provided by Xu Hengjiang, although those Demon Plants generally contained venom, their strength was limited, at least he hadn’t encountered any Burning Sun Level Demon Plant.

Including Teng Jinghua, teams of experts immediately began to operate, spreading out fanwise to conduct a search.

Jing Chenghui turned to look at Su Yuan, somewhat concerned, and asked, "Master Su, do you really not need us to accompany you?"

Upon hearing this, Su Yuan smiled and patted the shoulder of Ruan Ruan.

"Boom!!"

In an instant, an overwhelming and terrifying Star Power surged from Ruan Ruan’s body, causing Jing Chenghui to stagger, and two nearby Storm Alliance experts nearly fell!

"What?!"

Jing Chenghui looked at Ruan Ruan in shock, never expecting that this pet-like Slime on Su Yuan’s shoulder would have such astonishing Star Power!

Su Yuan smiled and said, "My Guardian Beast is also of Full Moon Level, no need for concern, Branch Leader Jing."

"Squish!" Ruan Ruan manifested a tiny fist to wave demonstratively.

"I didn’t expect Master Su to also be such a formidable Beast Tamer," Jing Chenghui remarked in admiration, then nodded, "Alright, Master Su, take care."

With that, Jing Chenghui immediately led the group forward.

Su Yuan watched Jing Chenghui depart, then activated the All-Knowing Vision to survey the surroundings, yet he found nothing noteworthy due to the vastness of the island.

However, Su Yuan wasn’t only reliant on the All-Knowing Vision...

With a thought, Silver Light flickered before him, and Ashley, adorned in an exquisite black dress, appeared.

"Boss." Ashley gave a slight bow.

Su Yuan instructed, "Ashley, first check where we can find Jing Yilian and other antidotes."

"Yes!"

Ashley clasped her hands together, immediately channeling the Power of Oracle, and after a survey, she pointed in a direction.

"Boss, there might be gains this way."

"Then let’s go."

Su Yuan’s figure flickered and moved forward.

Ashley, watching Su Yuan’s back, curled her lips into a slight smile, her steps light as she followed closely...
